*The Rare Sat Lie*

Let's start with some facts.

You cannot own a satoshi (sat). You can only own a utxo, who's value is measured in sats. Just like you cannot own a "kilogram" but you can own something which weights a kilogram.

The idea that a sat can be rare is a lie, since sats don't exist.

A utxo also cannot be sold, because as soon as it is spent, a completely new utxo is created, and the creation of this new utxo makes the previous utxo (which you wanted to sell) spent. To act of spending "an unspent transaction output" (UTXO) transforms it into something fundamentally different, a "spent transaction output" (STXO) and creates a new UTXO.

The idea that a utxo can be sold is a lie, since even utxos cannot be sold.

The idea that a rare sat from a "special" utxo can be bought is thus a double lie.

*Rare Sat Sophistry*

The conmen, the useful idiots and the otherwise honest but contrarian pundits will rationalize the spreading of the "Rare Sat Lie" with sophistry and appeals to libertarian morality such as "it's a free market, people can believe whatever they want and waste their money however they wish".

Of course, this line of reasoning is meant to create strawmen arguments so that every person that is righteously indignated at the spreading of these lies can be painted as being opposed to the concept of individual freedon itself, which immediately places the TruthSeeker's outrage outside of the Overton Window (and subject to ridicule).

Let us dispell the strawman argument.

The "market" (a small niche of degenerate gamblers) can want whatever it wants, yes. But it till cannot change the reality that individual satoshis (sats) do not exist as "things" or virtual objects. This reality is not subjective.

The sophists will also rationalize that "it cannot be stopped" and thus all you can do is "cry harder" (ironic eh?) and that any and all attempts to combat the lies are futile (at best) or stupid.

It may be true all the truthseeker can do is cry and shout, but it is also true that to combat the spreading of such lies is a virtuous and noble pursuit. And it is also true that the direct result of the shouting can be to save a victim from otherwise being conned. Which is, we would all agree I hope, a moral good, if not a moral imperative.

People are free to spread the lie that such things ("rare" "sats") are real, and fraudulently sell utxos of low value presented as "rare" "sats" for utxos of higher value, but to do so by exploiting the ignorance of people and confusion around the complex technology of Bitcoin is evil according to nearly almost moral code that ancient and modern civilizations have produced.

I am the last person that would deny someone the right to be evil. But I believe if you see a fraud and you don't call out the fraud then you too are a fraud.

So, the strawman is really just straw.

*The Rare Sat Con*

Beyond it being morally bad to spread lies generally, the spreading of the lie also occurs within the context of textbook confidence trick.

Confidence tricks involve :

- the mark: the victims whose money is to be acquired fraudulently
- the roper: reels in the mark via exposure and marketing, peaking the curiosity of the mark (i.e. a conference or media organization)
- the inside man: provides a venue for the con to take place, or supplies goods and services used in the context of the scam (a mining pool or a marketplace)
- the conman: gains the confidence of the mark extracts the money (the seller of a rare sat)
- the convincer: an acolyte of the conman which gives a taste of the profits to the mark either by investing in the mark, or showing off his profits to the mark (a fellow rare sat trader)

The conman and the convincer can interchange roles. For example, conmen and convincers can publicly con each other repeatedly and alternatively, with gains and losses which compensate, with the tacit understanding that the goal is really to gain the confidence of a mark from which both convincer and conman can extract money from.

Everyone except benefits in this zero sum game, except obviously the mark.

In the end, the mark was never forced to give up his money. He willingly parted ways with his funds, deceived by the confidence trick.

Selling "rare sats" for utxos of higher sat value is without doubt a confidence trick.

I will let it up to your imagination who you think plays which role in the rare sat con.

Ooh didn't try that. Nice if so.


That is a fair question - and my answer is that some folks are used to using it and don't want to change. Old habits die hard, especially for older folks. What Craig has done with this is provided people with a consumer-grade experience for verifying software. I hear your concerns, but this will likely help people to avoid downloading malware, and give them some exposure to the cool stuff available in Sparrow. The fact that it can be used for verifying 3rd party software is cool af, IMO.


Just used the new tool in Sparrow Wallet to verify the latest release of Trezor Suite.  nostr:npub1hea99yd4xt5tjx8jmjvpfz2g5v7nurdqw7ydwst0ww6vw520prnq6fg9v2 this is very cool.

Here's how to do it.

1. Download the latest release + signature files from trezor.io
2. Open Sparrow -> Tools -> Verify Download
3. In the Signature field, select the signature file from your Downloads folder.
4. In the Manifest field, select the release file - this will import the appropriate metadata from the release file for the manifest data.

Pass or fail. Rinse & repeat.

My new year resolution is bitcoin

Let’s begin the year with a bang! By which I mean I’ve decided to allocate some money to a spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) if one becomes available soon. Emails to the usual address.

I made up my mind while running along the Exmoor coast last week, steep cliffs plunging into the surf. Many readers will say that’s where my retirement savings will end up. But, as I wrote last summer, it’s time to take more risk.

And there is no bigger investment story right now. Google searches for “bitcoin ETF” have tripled over the past week. The world’s biggest cryptocurrency started 2024 by trading 7 per cent higher. Since October add a zero.

The catalyst is the expectation the Securities and Exchange Commission is about to give the green light to multiple spot applications (you can already buy ETFs holding bitcoin futures contracts). Bloomberg reckons there’s a 90 per cent chance approval will be given by January 10.

That’s almost as precise as my mate Chris. Before setting off on my jog he told me there was a 98 per cent chance of bitcoin prices doubling this year. Even if he is half right, you don’t need my second-year statistics course at Cambridge to know that’s a nailed-down 50 per cent return.

I would be mad to miss out. And, besides, I’ve changed my view on the suitability of bitcoin ETFs for retail punters. It used to worry me that they seem to fail at least two SEC tests when it comes to investor protection and market integrity. It still does.

Take safe custody. No one can “steal” an ETF, of course, and gangs don’t have a clue where you hide your “cold wallet” — if you prefer to hold bitcoins offline. The digital wallets ETFs will use are also secure.

But thieves can raid the biggest and most popular exchanges — and have done — undermining prices. Remember that the sole purpose of a spot ETF is to track a price. It therefore doesn’t matter if off-exchange coins are safe.

The integrity of the whole system can be violated. It’s a bit like being comfortable that your Apple shares are secure with a custodian, even though Gru from Despicable Me can make the retail stores disappear with a ray gun.

Spot bitcoin ETFs fail another crucial test too: whether the underlying market can be monitored to a sufficient degree to prevent fraud or manipulation. This is mainly why previous SEC applications were rejected.

Sure, blockchains are permanent ledgers. But bitcoin transactions are pseudonymous and can involve multiple addresses. It’s irrelevant that an ETF is transparent if the assets it holds are not.

In addition, so-called “whales” dominate ownership, with 0.25 per cent of addresses holding 80 per cent of total bitcoin supply, according to Bitinfocharts data. Whoever invented bitcoin is thought to own 1.1mn coins.

That’s roughly a 20th of the total supply to date — and there are at least five wallets holding around 100,000 coins each, according to Arkham Intel. The scope to move prices, it seems to me, is massive — and that’s before we even consider fraud.

All that said, the more you think of bitcoin as an investment, whether in an ETF or not, its many flaws don’t differ hugely from most of the other regulated assets you own happily.

Regarding ownership concentration, bitcoin’s pales beside Bernard Arnauld’s 48 per cent stake in LVMH, let alone his majority voting share. Mark Zuckerberg owns 13 per cent of Facebook, as does Elon Musk of Tesla. Those guys move prices each time they blink.

Another reason people say bitcoin has no place in serious portfolios is because it doesn’t exist — just ones and zeros with no intrinsic value. But I own plenty of invisible assets in my other funds that are only worth what others are willing to pay for them.

For companies in my FTSE 100 fund, for example, the tangible book value only accounts for 45 per cent of the total net asset value. In other words, the majority of the ETF doesn’t exist either — company brand names, goodwill and the like.

That bitcoin produces no income is also cited as a problem. It is therefore nothing more than a speculative asset. So what? Gold, vintage cars and undeveloped land are the same. By that definition, so is the house or flat you live in.

What is more, a fifth of stocks in the S&P 500 did not pay out a dime last year either — some never do, including Facebook, Berkshire Hathaway and Amazon. Finance theory tells us we shouldn’t care about dividends anyway.

This relates to another concern I don’t share: that bitcoin is therefore impossible to value. You don’t need an income stream to value assets — ask any art dealer. With the same vertical supply curve as a one-off painting — 19.6mn of the maximum 21mn bitcoins are already circulating — demand sets prices.

Besides, what isn’t hard to value? Analysts are routinely wrong about every asset class, while the majority of active fund managers underperform. In Europe, for example, more than 90 per cent of active equity funds now trail their benchmarks over a decade, based on S&P Dow Jones data.

Finally, I like the fact that bitcoin’s correlation with the major asset classes is less than 0.25 — it’s going to be the mad uncle in my portfolio. Sure, it also has an annualised volatility approaching 50 per cent (don’t all relatives?) but as returns are so high, risk/adjusted returns remain attractive.

So come on SEC, have some fun why don’t you! Or at least be consistent — there are loads of ways my savings can crash into the sea that you already approve of.

Can you imagine how these crazy bastards felt when they saw a machine - that they conceived and made - flying for the first time? When everyone called them crazy, stupid and wrong? Their feeling of being proven correct, and their haters wrong?

Get this cosmic-grade energy into your veins. We’re growing the wings of freedom, and we’re going to fly.

How much glue does a mother need to sniff during pregnancy to make her child become a Ledger developer?


Good guess - scroll down brother. Answer is in the thread


Had coffee with two pro golfers this morning. First time I’ve met them, so after some flannel about golf, I focused our chat on the important stuff.

They asked about ‘volatility’. So I opened these charts - #BTC  is the 1st; guesses on who is the 2nd?

Ponder it. Answer below.

https://m.primal.net/HTpv.png

https://m.primal.net/HTpw.png

Amazon - 1998 to 2004. From $0.26 to $5.33.

Why? To show them that world-class assets do not achieve their price potential in a straight line, and that draw-downs are part of the process.

https://m.primal.net/HTpx.png

Amazon trades today at $148.84.

"We’re gonna need a bigger b̶o̶a̶t̶ chart” ~ Jaws

Look at that volatility in retrospect. LOL.

Those who built their case and risked their capital in $AMZN back then could have lost it all; as it should be. And those who stayed the course - riding multiple drawdowns - earned their rewards.

As it should be.

Airgapped generation FTW 🙌  - you could even do it with Tails. See here: https://twitter.com/borderwallets/status/1567821122602782721?s=46&t=iGiWjE-xvLW1ZAQS7DVEXA. Secure elements - I don’t see why not


Same. Dude is a total G


That’s why every deterministic grid comes with a 12-word regeneration mnemonic. It looks and works exactly the same as a bitcoin seed phrase, so can be used a decoy/canary. This improves resistance to evil maid or border guard attacks.

Welcome to the future of #bitcoin self-custody ❄
https://frostsnap.com/demo.mp4

Frostsnap is a mobile-first hardware wallet 📲

Begin your self-custody journey by plugging Frostsnap devices into your phone and naming them via the Frostsnap app.

Choose a security threshold and begin key generation to easily set up a multisig wallet in a matter of seconds.

In this demo we create a 2-of-3 multisig between the devices. A threshold of two means we need any two of the three devices to sign in order to spend funds from the wallet. ❄🔒

Daisy-chained Frostsnap devices participate in distributed key generation, each contributing entropy to a joint secret shared across multiple devices.

No single device knows the overall secret, only a fragment.

You, the user, can easily verify the key was created securely ✅

After creating a new key, you can hide your Frostsnap devices in different locations or share them among people you trust. 🏘🏝👨⚖

When it comes time to make a bitcoin transaction or sign a Nostr post under your Frostsnap key, you must sign on multiple devices.

Frostsnap is crafting a whole new Bitcoin experience,

And we're fixing the problems of self-custody today:
security, accessibility, cost, and privacy.

Frostsnap is making #bitcoin ownership easy, personalized, and secure.

Stay Frosty ❄


Whaaaaat. Want one


Just started using StarOS. Look forward to trying this 🤙


Thanks for the mention fam 🤙 ⚡


128 or 19580 bits of entropy in the grid, so treat it like you would a seed phrase. With 128 bit, you can regenerate using a 12-word regeneration mnemonic which works exactly the same as a seed phrase - do can be used  as a decoy too. It is designed to prevent evil maid, border guard and Elizabeth Warren attacks.


LFG!


Good luck stopping people memorising shapes.

The Egg - a short story by Andy Weir.

You were on your way home when you died.

It was a car accident. Nothing particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. You left behind a wife and two children. It was a painless death. The EMTs tried their best to save you, but to no avail. Your body was so utterly shattered you were better off, trust me.

And that’s when you met me.

“What… what happened?” You asked. “Where am I?”

“You died,” I said, matter-of-factly. No point in mincing words.

“There was a… a truck and it was skidding…”

“Yup,” I said.

“I… I died?”

“Yup. But don’t feel bad about it. Everyone dies,” I said.

You looked around. There was nothingness. Just you and me. “What is this place?” You asked. “Is this the afterlife?”

“More or less,” I said.

“Are you god?” You asked.

“Yup,” I replied. “I’m God.”

“My kids… my wife,” you said.

“What about them?”

“Will they be all right?”

“That’s what I like to see,” I said. “You just died and your main concern is for your family. That’s good stuff right there.”

You looked at me with fascination. To you, I didn’t look like God. I just looked like some man. Or possibly a woman. Some vague authority figure, maybe. More of a grammar school teacher than the almighty.

“Don’t worry,” I said. “They’ll be fine. Your kids will remember you as perfect in every way. They didn’t have time to grow contempt for you. Your wife will cry on the outside, but will be secretly relieved. To be fair, your marriage was falling apart. If it’s any consolation, she’ll feel very guilty for feeling relieved.”

“Oh,” you said. “So what happens now? Do I go to heaven or hell or something?”

“Neither,” I said. “You’ll be reincarnated.”

“Ah,” you said. “So the Hindus were right,”

“All religions are right in their own way,” I said. “Walk with me.”

You followed along as we strode through the void. “Where are we going?”

“Nowhere in particular,” I said. “It’s just nice to walk while we talk.”

“So what’s the point, then?” You asked. “When I get reborn, I’ll just be a blank slate, right? A baby. So all my experiences and everything I did in this life won’t matter.”

“Not so!” I said. “You have within you all the knowledge and experiences of all your past lives. You just don’t remember them right now.”

I stopped walking and took you by the shoulders. “Your soul is more magnificent, beautiful, and gigantic than you can possibly imagine. A human mind can only contain a tiny fraction of what you are. It’s like sticking your finger in a glass of water to see if it’s hot or cold. You put a tiny part of yourself into the vessel, and when you bring it back out, you’ve gained all the experiences it had.

“You’ve been in a human for the last 48 years, so you haven’t stretched out yet and felt the rest of your immense consciousness. If we hung out here for long enough, you’d start remembering everything. But there’s no point to doing that between each life.”

“How many times have I been reincarnated, then?”

“Oh lots. Lots and lots. And in to lots of different lives.” I said. “This time around, you’ll be a Chinese peasant girl in 540 AD.”

“Wait, what?” You stammered. “You’re sending me back in time?”

“Well, I guess technically. Time, as you know it, only exists in your universe. Things are different where I come from.”

“Where you come from?” You said.

“Oh sure,” I explained “I come from somewhere. Somewhere else. And there are others like me. I know you’ll want to know what it’s like there, but honestly you wouldn’t understand.”

“Oh,” you said, a little let down. “But wait. If I get reincarnated to other places in time, I could have interacted with myself at some point.”

“Sure. Happens all the time. And with both lives only aware of their own lifespan you don’t even know it’s happening.”

“So what’s the point of it all?”

“Seriously?” I asked. “Seriously? You’re asking me for the meaning of life? Isn’t that a little stereotypical?”

“Well it’s a reasonable question,” you persisted.

I looked you in the eye. “The meaning of life, the reason I made this whole universe, is for you to mature.”

“You mean mankind? You want us to mature?”

“No, just you. I made this whole universe for you. With each new life you grow and mature and become a larger and greater intellect.”

“Just me? What about everyone else?”

“There is no one else,” I said. “In this universe, there’s just you and me.”

You stared blankly at me. “But all the people on earth…”

“All you. Different incarnations of you.”

“Wait. I’m everyone!?”

“Now you’re getting it,” I said, with a congratulatory slap on the back.

“I’m every human being who ever lived?”

“Or who will ever live, yes.”

“I’m Abraham Lincoln?”

“And you’re John Wilkes Booth, too,” I added.

“I’m Hitler?” You said, appalled.

“And you’re the millions he killed.”

“I’m Jesus?”

“And you’re everyone who followed him.”

You fell silent.

“Every time you victimized someone,” I said, “you were victimizing yourself. Every act of kindness you’ve done, you’ve done to yourself. Every happy and sad moment ever experienced by any human was, or will be, experienced by you.”

You thought for a long time.

“Why?” You asked me. “Why do all this?”

“Because someday, you will become like me. Because that’s what you are. You’re one of my kind. You’re my child.”

“Whoa,” you said, incredulous. “You mean I’m a god?”

“No. Not yet. You’re a fetus. You’re still growing. Once you’ve lived every human life throughout all time, you will have grown enough to be born.”

“So the whole universe,” you said, “it’s just…”

“An egg.” I answered. “Now it’s time for you to move on to your next life.”

And I sent you on your way.

Lovely view this morning, looking forward to day 2 of nostr:npub1p0xmesqhftf7ga2v2hzdzz44ua059e70z7d9htur240p24y3a5xsn0deeh. Best conference I've attended, (but I've not been to that many).

Everyone says good morning as I walk by, its sunny, full of hope, optimism, youthful people in body and spirit. Home just feels like a prison I'm on day-release from.

Fear, negativity, doubt drops away like old memories and bad dreams. What remains is bone deep conviction to progress without delay, in all directions, create order, take risk, make ALL things cheaper, easier, faster, safer, stronger. Solve hitherto impossible problems with grace and ease.

Bitcoiners in one place are truly formidable at this point. This is an economic and intellectual emancipation.

My first 5 or so years as a Bitcoiner were solo and disconnected. I just held my coins and lived in exile in the fiat mines.

There was a time when it would take an hour a week to review what is happening in Bitcoin. Then it become a full time job, and now, I think we're at a point where no-one person can claim they are completely informed.

We've moved into the early Bitcoin Renaissance period. Progress is conforming exactly to a power law. Opportunities are multiplying as they are seized. We're moving forward almost by the hour. It's absolutely staggering, and emotionally overwhelming. We've become a forest of best-friends, and economic counterparts.

Onward my friends, onward. In all directions, on all fronts, forever. Never ever look back or sideways. Punch through your targets, fight through your positions. Don't stop to argue with zombies, give them no time and no quarter. Freedom first. Join or die.

*[Originally published just before the 2020 halving]*

It currently takes about 48 seconds to mine a single bitcoin. This is based on a target block completion time of 10 minutes and a block reward of 12.5 BTC. At the May 2020 halving — when the block reward halves to 6.25 BTC — mining velocity for a single bitcoin will slow, for the first time, to above one minute. 96 seconds to mine one BTC.

Over the next three mining epochs, bitcoin production velocity continues to halve every four years. And in just 12 years — in 2032 — we will finally breach the 10 minute mark for mining one bitcoin.

Three more mining epochs and halvings will come and go, with bitcoin production velocity — reliably — dropping each time.

> Epitaph, for another half.

In 2044 — 24 years from now — while we’re all eating lunch, miners across the world will (for the first time) compete for >one hour to win just one bitcoin.

Four epochs on, we reach another major milestone in bitcoin’s velocity drop. If you didn’t think Bitcoin was revolutionary before now, brace yourself; some time in 2060, it will take one full spin of the Earth’s axis to mine one bitcoin. Production velocity: >one day per BTC.

12 years later, we slide into 2072. Hardworking miners now require >one week to find a whole bitcoin.

> “And on the seventh day, a miner found a bitcoin — and it was orange”

Eight years after this, in 2080, our bitcoin’s mining velocity finally aligns with the maternal lunar cycle. One month to mine one bitcoin. Wen moon? ‘Dis wen, friend. Stick it on an advent calendar and chalk-off the sleeps until Santa drops one BTC down the chimney.

In 2096 — the final halving before the turn of the next century — we will see one bitcoin’s production pace match Earth’s orbit around our star. More than one year to mine one bitcoin. Cosmic!

If we had started mining bitcoins in 2009 at 2096’s pace, our $140BN market would be shared by just 11 bitcoins. How’s your cold storage coping with that? I’d be sending mine to Antarctica. In a fridge. Set to zero degrees. Kelvin.

But hodl onto your sats, because in 2108 we drop to bitcoin being mined at a glacial pace. It would take 10 years to mine one bitcoin now — if there were any whole bitcoins left to be mined! But, alas, there won’t be; Satoshi’s Wholecoiner Inn is closed now, sorry. Try the folks over in Satsville.

And get this.

By 2112, one lucky miner could get married, start a family and celebrate 25 years of wedded bliss in the time it would take to mine one whole bitcoin. Still think you’re too late to this party? LMFAO! 🤣

Four years later, we hit 2116. It’s time to mark bitcoin’s mining pace now equalling 50 years; a “golden” anniversary. Congratulations!

> “But what’s gold, Daddy?”

In 2120, singular bitcoin production now operates at a rate that we mortals struggle to match. >100 years are now needed to mine one bitcoin. Honeybadger running at centenarian pace. And she still DGAF!

In 2124, the rate slows again (like a psychopath) and we hit a tectonic rate of knots. 200 years to mine one bitcoin. Oh my!

At the very next halving, in 2128, we are down to one bitcoin’s production speed clocking 400 years. If you could walk that backwards in time, you would stand a chance of stopping central banks from getting a stranglehold on England. Legend status from all of mankind: unlocked.

2132 sees the arrival of yet another pace drop — now >800 years to mine one bitcoin. Want to go back and see the Magna Carta being signed? Make it happen on-chain with at least three confs, my dude.

And finally, 2136 will bring us the last halving event. The final hardening.

None of us will be there to see the next four years of the final mining epoch unfold, but our wealthy progeny might. And if they’ve looked after their private keys — with the grippiest of grips — they might get to meet the one lucky miner who wins the last satoshi. If they do, I hope they congratulate them on the fact that it took more than 8 minutes to win that sat!

What will life be like for our offspring then? Will there be time machines by 2140? If there are, maybe they’ll retrace the 1600 years it would now take to mine just one bitcoin.

They could go back to Ancient Rome.

They could take Satoshi’s white paper.

And they could teach them about this thing called Bitcoin.

It might just save us all a whole lot of trouble.✌

At the risk of severe pushback, I believe I have identified an asset class which will outperform Bitcoin over the next 7 weeks. In fact I am certain that this will deliver a higher ROI than $BTC between now and Christmas.

Each one is divisible by 1,000 sub-units, providing family-level scalability. Mining is handled by combing through thrift stores = Proof of Work.

Many people believe that Bitcoin is the missing piece in the Internet stack jigsaw. What do most people miss? The actual jigsaw.

Elon Musk started PayPal and as a result of that and his first principles thinking, it is highly likely that he perfectly understands money.

Similar to how it is highly likely Elizabeth Warren perfectly understands money.

He also must understand that the natural state of the free market IS deflationary.

If both of these are true - then he also must know (as one of the top AI + robotics companies) that he is stealing the productivity gains that should flow to society in the form of lower prices by pretending he is solving planetary issues through a broken system that makes them worse.

In other words, Elon not advocating for #Bitcoin is not because he is stupid. It’s because he believes you are.

It’s real - from last year though


I think inertia is leading us toward a quantified state, in which the costs of tracking and categorizing objects — primarily people, phones, cars, and money — as they move from place to place becomes so low that most institutions are doing it by reflex, without either considering or caring for consequences. Eventually, somebody is going to exploit the gap in information (between what is available to ordinary people, and what is available  to organizations) in a way that causes enormous, historic harm, as happened in WWII when a particular state realized that IBM had compiled a database that was perfect for populating a list of names of those who would soon be marched off to camps. And that was just census data. Now they know what you read, where you go, who you're with, and how you'll vote.

The unfortunate reality of contemporary political thought is that consequences do not exist until they are felt. Rare is the chicken that fears the farmer. That means we've got two options: we either wait for the pain, or we stop waiting for political consensus.

Despite the breathtaking first impression of the place, we got to hear about - and see - how he was applying blood, sweat and tractor gears to forge an asset out of a considerable liability.

We came away from the afternoon with a tonne of respect for Ben, and my lad with an ironclad certainty that one day he, too, will own a massive German Shepherd called Samson.

My dad’s old tools are my favourite. Ancient af but still rock solid


Saifedean Ammous [2:05:00]: I think you’re more likely to be taking the leap in the unknown when you have a little bit of gold in the mattress than when you don’t — I think this is the thing. Like, if you look at the late 19th century — and I discussed this in The Bitcoin Standard — that was arguably the most innovative period in human history. There’s qualitative evidence: look at the world around you today — pretty much everything that we use was invented in that period — the car, the airplane, the telegraph, the telephone, the camera. Pretty much modern life, the late 19th century, the period between 1870–1914, because the whole world was practically on a gold standard, the whole world was using the same money, and the whole world could save in the same currency. That meant that two bicycle shop owning brothers in North Carolina could go and try and fly, even as all the scientific experts in 1903 were confirming that the possibility of flight has been debunked as unscientific. Thomas Edison said, Not in a million years we’re going to be flying. Lord Kelvin also said it’s never going to happen. The New York Times said it’s never going to happen the same month in which the Wright brothers did it, and they continued to deny that it was going to happen, even two years after they did it. But why could they do that? Because they had savings in gold. They had the security with something that you know is going to be there, and then you can take a risk with the stuff that is extra. I have, say, three years expenditures in gold under my mattress, and I know that I could take a risk with everything else because whatever bad things happen with all of my dreams like even flying — think about how insane that is — I still can go back to the three years of gold that I have saved.

If you like "The Nostr", I have an absolute classic video to share" "The Quantitative Easing". It went viral 12 years ago.

Imagine watching this in 2011, totally getting it, knowing Bitcoin exists, and still not buying any. That was me. VERY expensive levels of stupidity.

Imagine watching it, not buying Bitcoin, sitting on a pile of silver and feeling like that dude at the party thinking "They don't know".

Yeh.

"As states merge with the internet and the future of our civilization becomes the future of the internet, we must redefine force relations. If we do not, the universality of the internet will merge global humanity into one giant grid of mass surveillance and mass control.”

Edward nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9  gave us all a stern warning, and despite the standing ovation, I don’t think most people understood or cared.

Snowden agrees that Bitcoin is the best tool we have to fight the surveillance state, but "Bitcoin has a privacy problem".

The reason we see talks of ETFs and acceptance from the SEC is BECAUSE Bitcoin is not private.

Snowden says it’s not enough for a few to know best privacy practices. Those who have good OPSEC should use that skill to provide privacy to the masses.

Privacy must be the default.

Notice he doesn’t say we should switch to Monero. Monero is a shitcoin. He says the technology to make decentralized, private payments with Bitcoin exists RIGHT NOW, and the minority of us who truly care about freedom need to pay attention to the discourse and stop asking for permission.

In other words, we have to stop accepting "Bitcoin shouldn’t do that because it might cause legal issues".

🚨 Some troubling Bitcoin news from the UK.

I met a broker last week, who is making system changes to comply with new regulations requiring all exchanges to implement - by 6 Jan 2024 - the following for UK bitcoin buyers:

- A 6-page test that you must pass.
- You will get 3 chances to pass the test. If you fail all 3, they must deny your account. PERMANENTLY!
-  A 48 hr “cooling period” before you can actually buy.
- Your bitcoin purchases will be limited to 10% of your net worth, measured in LIQUID assets.

Trapping you in fiat debt hell. Warn your friends.

This strikes a chord.

In the near future, maybe we’ll just have a lot of slightly smaller meet-ups.

And after that, we’ll have a lot more even smaller meet-ups.

And then, eventually, we’ll have a shitload of tiny meet-ups.

And each of us can simply call them our local communities, who have returned to sound values, enabled by sound money and sound people.


Good to meet you, Aaron - good luck with the book sale, looking forward to reading it 🤙

Avoiding taxes is not just about keeping more money for yourself.

It's at least as much about not funding psychopathic behavior.

PV, dear freedom fighters. Please take a moment to read this, and remind yourself why freedom tech is so important.

As you do so, bear in mind that this seems to have happened - in ENGLAND - because this lady MISGENDERED someone on Twitter.

Massive scam. We had 4 years in 2012! https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2012/sep/17/arctic-collapse-sea-ice


I'd be going for a Start9 over this, personally


Stacks is a premined scam that implements a forever ICO model - bitcoin holders send bitcoin to stacks holders to receive stacks tokens.

Stack promoters use affinity marketing and misleading terminology to hide this fact. Naive retail users are their target.

Due to the premine, founders and investors receive the majority of the bitcoin sent into the forever ICO which they then use to advertise the scam to more naive retail users. Incredibly predatory.
