 No matter the outcome of tonight’s #debate, Kamala will be dubbed the “winner” barring any major meltdown. It is in the media’s best interest to keep the race as close as possible. If people lose interest, the networks will lose millions of dollars in ad revenue. 

Don’t be a pawn in their game. 
 What an ironical paradox that the national debt chart is literally the inverse of the #bitcoin supply chart. https://image.nostr.build/9816e1a57fa0d11b17d9a886088e7b6e2bc50aa7e01b6224232aaf5d7fd616ae.jpg  
 Irresponsible government spending is just one more reason to use #Bitcoin https://image.nostr.build/b88cb7b45c1acc6c97022de3737aee68dca389b1bbd4a79b628a861fcfc95fb0.jpg  
 Anyone calling themselves a “#bitcoin expert” on Linkedin is not, a Bitcoin expert.

No one i... 
 Exactly. 
 You know what we call people who don't own any #Bitcoin, right? 👀 
 Poor 🤣 
 On the X app you’ll start to see #bitcoin ers turning on one another

Kicks off with Samson Mow... 
 What are the pros & cons of @primal vs @damus? #nostr

 every social platform is quickly becoming a honeypot, if it's not already. 
 Yeah, starting to get used to it! 🤙 #nostr 
 One of the best visual representations of the #bitcoin halving cycle. https://image.nostr.build/56efde144e87b36b67a9a16a27233cd00c52354b41a830e85217d22b0ce1c1f0.jpg  
 Pretty neat! 👌 
 Like the name “Cheat Code” for the new show too. The name can serve a much broader purpose of more than just #Bitcoin. 

Almost like a “Cheat Code” for life. Could be conflicting/confusing with the conference, but I think people will get it. Could help build the brand, and a great name nonetheless. 
 Damus vs Primal…which do you like better, and why? 
 Foundry USA – a company owned by Digital Currency Group – aligning with US interests, and AntPool – a Chinese company, operated by China’s Bitmain Technologies – reflecting Chinese influence, now own 57% of the hashrate. https://image.nostr.build/b6da36e8ab664cab322b53ab79b02654ef717ab650fe2c5ebf696077d203385f.jpg  
 Hardware Wallet 101:
1) If you need to plug it into a computer, don’t trust it. 
2) If it is not Bitcoin only, don’t trust it. 
3) If it is not open source, don’t trust it.
