 I convinced my brother and his band Sepoy to start posting their music to Wavlake. Here’s their single leading up to their upcoming album. Let’s just say it’s topical 👀

 If Trump was smart, he’d announce that he’s cancelling the bitcoin strategic reserve and let the price crab around 60-70k until inauguration day. Then quietly start accumulating at above noon Moscow time. 

If he announces the reserve now, it will be early morning in Moscow by the time Jan 20th rolls around 
 Who, Biden? 
 I’d be amazed if the current admin is accumulating  
 Both will happen

 Who ran the Madeira stage for Bitcoin Atlantis?
#asknostr 
 @Marce ran the open source stage 
 I think that talk might have been part of @preston's block, if I remember correctly 
 I listened to three hours of Trump on Rogan so you don’t have to

Tl;dr: don’t 
 Had an incredibly fun and productive day on the streets of Harlem with @webworthy

 This is a really thorough report from my friend @danoprey on the state of Bitcoin core funding. It paints a pretty bleak picture, IMO, and I hope it serves as a wake up call

 Any nostriches in Washington DC this Wednesday? I’ll be there in the evening and happy to connect #asknostr 
 Thank you 🙏

 Hey, thanks. I’ll be done with fiat work around 8 and can probably be there by 8:30. Will you guys still be out then? 
 Perfect, I’ll see you there around 8:30, then 
 Sounds good. Will be closer to 8:40

 I hope you’re not saying that bitcoin is Esperanto 
 Fair. Esperanto was not emergent. It was contrived
