Don’t get dismayed by the haters, detractors, doofuses, and dumbasses. Building this tool and other parts of the sovereign tech stack will be one of the keys to keeping humanity free in the future. Keep building frens.

“The planet doesn't need any more 'successful' people.
  The planet desperately needs more people who will cultivate peace, people who will help with healing and rehabilitation, who will tell stories and give love in every way possible.  It needs people who live meaningfully in their home places, with moral courage, ready to fight for a more livable and humane world;  and these qualities have very little to do with success as our culture today understands it.”

There’s an assumption the US legal system is fair and leans towards justice and that is not true. Trump’s legal troubles are a distraction from the fact that we have 3 geriatric men of questionable competence running for president and a sitting president who thinks its fine to bring in the police for peaceful resistance to US funding of a massacre. We are in real trouble with no discernible leadership to get us out of this mess.

The only service a government provides is coercion. That is it. Nothing else.

Governments don’t build roads. They use coercion to extort money from peaceful people and give some of that money to individuals to build roads.

Governments don’t provide security. They use coercion to extort money from peaceful people and give some of that money to individuals with guns to “protect” you.

Governments don’t provide education. They use coercion to extort money from peaceful people and give some of that money to individuals that force children to be educated.

Everything that government does requires coercion. Government provides no value. It is a middleman that doesn’t care about your wellbeing. It will always function inefficiently because it keeps a portion of the money it has extorted for itself. The services it extorts you to pay for are always inferior and more expensive than what the free market can provide. And because the government is not accountable to anyone for anything, people have no recourse when injured by the government.

When you go to a business for a product or service, you peacefully agree for an exchange of value. When you go to a government, you are requesting the only service the government provides: coercion. You are asking the government to use coercion to extort money from peaceful people to do what you want. No matter how you frame it or sugarcoat it. Asking the government for anything, no matter how “moral” it seems to be, is no different than asking a mafia to make sure your neighbor wears a mask.

If you believe that humanity needs government, then you are simply a violent individual that has outsourced the acts of coercion to a 3rd party. You are a statist that wants just the right amount of violence to function without getting your hands dirty.


I'm guessing 5%


The solution to fixing the world is soo simple, yet nobody seems to grasp it.

Fix yourself, spread your message, pursue love. It seems cliché, but then ask yourself whether Benjamin Netanyahu is thinking the same thing while dropping his warheads on children. Or whether Trump’s promise to make America great again will actually make America great again, or just make his bank account great again. It doesn’t matter what side of the conflict you stand on—Israel/Palestine or Russia/Ukraine—flags divide, ideologies divide, and power divides.

The lips of the righteous teach many, but fools die for want of wisdom.

Political litmus tests are getting easier and easier for me.

You either believe and legislate in a way that supports, promotes, and makes human flourishing easier, or you do the opposite.

Bitcoin is also a litmus test for these same leaders—one of the greatest tools we have ever seen that promotes human flourishing.

We have many leaders today telling us they are against Bitcoin, and they’re telling us exactly why! It gives them less control, it competes with the USD global reserve status and all the manipulative powers that entails.

We’ve seen slight, but increasing bipartisan support for Bitcoin (yes and crypto) in Congress. An old guard to new guard approach. In the long run I do believe this is much more generational than political party, while today is still stands than far more in the left wing than the right are against Bitcoin. That’s just the truth.

But I don’t care what you label me at this point, the progressive wing that was against the patriot act and actually cared about pragmatic solutions is the minority and many have left politics. I’m trying to appeal to progressive/democratic voters, whereas I have little faith in the party “leaders.” Some may change, as we’re seeing, but many won’t.

Anyway, end rant. Gm!


Not that I know of. One should turn off bluetooth, WiFi, and RFID when not in use. I know GrapheneOS does this. Set WiFi and bluetooth to turn off automatically.

I recommend 2 phones.

One is a travel phone that stays in airplane mode  INSIDE A HIGH QUALITY FARADAY BAG when not in use, never connects to your home network and gets turned on and off ~5 miles from your house at the same random location (an intersection for example).

The other is a home mobile that never connects to anything outside of the home, incl cellular networks.

However since silent.link SMS/INBOUND phone ESIM is international and roaming and not connected to your identity, it could be used at home given your particular threat model.

Though, for greater privacy/security, I recommend only using VOIP at home + e2ee messaging for contacts like SimpleX or Signal (registered to a decoy number).

Is there less farts if we eat the cow?
now, there's a question.


There is no means by which anyone can evade his personal responsibility. Whoever neglects to examine to the best of his abilities all the problems involved voluntarily surrenders his birthright to a self-appointed elite of supermen. In such vital matters blind reliance upon “experts” and uncritical acceptance of popular catchwords and prejudices is tantamount to the abandonment of self-determination and to yielding to other people’s domination. As conditions are today, nothing can be more important to every intelligent man than economics. His own fate and that of his progeny is at stake.

Very few are capable of contributing any consequential idea to the body of economic thought. But all reasonable men are called upon to familiarize themselves with the teachings of economics. This is, in our age, the primary civic duty.

Whether we like it or not, it is a fact that economics cannot remain an esoteric branch of knowledge accessible only to small groups of scholars and specialists. Economics deals with society’s fundamental problems; it concerns everyone and belongs to all. It is the main and proper study of every citizen.

 Love, your mailman.


Three weeks ago I wrote an article on the EU's new AMLR in Bitcoin Magazine, detailing how the EU passed ALM laws restricting the use of Bitcoin privacy tools without any data to back up their claims that privacy heightens money laundering and terrorist financing risks.

Alex Stachtchenko took it a step further and ran the numbers. For every Euro confiscated, 200€ are spent. This means that the EU's AML compliance costs of 144B Euro exceeds all money ascribed to crime per year at 110B Euro – and still, 99% of criminal profits escape confiscation.

Despite their absolute inefficiency AML laws continue to be expanded, subjecting all EU citizens to total financial surveillance for the price of catching 1%. It is a system that has grown completely out of control and is in no way proportionate to the right to privacy enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

It's a long read, and its in French so you'll need to translate it, but I guarantee that it will be worth every minute of your time.

It would be a good idea to for “Bitcoiners” to buy a map, and study what “Jurisdiction” means.

Whenever you hear an American say, “things are bad in Bitcoin”, several things are inevitably true.

They think America and its “SEC” are the only powers on Earth.

They refuse to name the enemy that causes their fear; “The State”.

People like this can never solve problems because they’re psychologically incapable of imagining a world where their beloved State is smaller.

These people were never truly aligned with Bitcoin’s aims; they think the purpose of Bitcoin is “decentralisation”.

It is not.

The purpose of Bitcoin is replacing fiat, not to act as a perfect expression of a database software problem.

And Bitcoin has no aims; it is not a person.

People have aims, and if your aim is X it’s up to you to make it so. If you refuse to face reality, other people who do, will, and you’ll be drowned out.

And even if Bitcoin was perfect to their standards, it would still be corrosive to the power of the State, and distribution and dissemination of it into the economy would remain a problem (app stores)…or do these delusional people believe the State will throw its hands up and walk away, “because distributed”? You’ll still be an enemy of the State, and a target, even with a perfect Bitcoin, silly little boy.

The level of delusion, infantilism, brainwashing and just plain silliness on constant display is shocking and perplexing. If it were not for the bright future coming it would be depressing.

You the observers can choose to listen to the negative Bitcoin Cult members, and wallow in the pool of misery they sit and stew in that they want to drag you all down into.

Or you can go boldly into the future with real Bitcoiners and step into the bright future with them.

Easy choice Droogies!

I couldn’t have written a better list of reason why not to use Tether :

- Tether stablecoins respect the OFAC / SDN lists.
- Tether has a highly trained internal investigation team that relies on a wide variety of tools, to monitor primary (core platform at tether.to) and secondary markets (blockchains and exchanges).
- Tether’s collaboration with Chainalysis helps our teams to have the best in class software and training for a proactive monitoring activity.
- Tether collaborated, since inception, with 124 law enforcement agencies across 40+ different countries.
- Tether blocked more than $1.3 billion since inception, mostly related to scams, hacks, ML. Approximately $1.6 million is related to terrorist finance.
- Tether collaborated, on a voluntary basis, in 198 requests from law enforcement to block wallets in the last 12 months (90 with US law enforcement), 339 in the last 3 years (158 with US law enforcement).
- Tether blocked more than $639 million working with US law enforcement.
- Tether onboarded the FBI and USSS for reissuances.
- Tether collaborates with Israel’s NBCTF and Ukraine law enforcement.
- Tether cooperates directly with law enforcement agencies, while other stablecoins, although they claim to be “more compliant” they require a judge order, allowing hackers, scammers and criminals a long time to move funds around.

Socialist vs Individualist - a short story.

My neighbours are socialist Boomers. They still have their “Yes” sign up on the front fence from last years failed referendum, and I learned to avoid politics (Greens voters) in our chitchat because I know we disagree.

Recently they got a letter from my landlord complaining about a tree overhanging my fence - I told them not to worry about it because I’m not bothered by it, a small patch of dead grass in the back corner from its shade isn’t a concern. They were thankful for that as it would clearly be a pain to cut and cost a bit to get an arborist in; we’re on generally good terms despite our differences.

Anyway today I awoke to a beaten up car blocking our shared driveway. I had a look inside and it looks like someone living rough, but it doesn’t appear to be abandoned.

The car is completely blocking my car but the neighbours were able to squeeze their Tesla out past it.

So I came out for a delivery after they’d just returned with the lady Boomer on her phone looking up the council’s number. She was about to call them to get it towed and I asked her to please stop and just wait a bit. The fella just says “I want it gone” 😂

Anyway I talked them off the ledge and said wait til this evening, it could be someone at work and I don’t need my car today so let’s not cause this person any more problems. They grumblingly agreed.

So my individualist arse seeing this situation wanted to give this car owner the benefit of the doubt and avoid having what looks to be all their possessions seized with a massive fine to get them back.

The socialists who virtue signal about helping others, who are not inconvenienced as I am, wanted to have the state intervene and have this clearly poor person go through the cost and stress of dealing with them to get their stuff back.

These were just mine and their natural reactions to a situation. Thought it interesting that their supposed “empathy” went out the window the second there’s an eyesore out the front and they reverted straight to Gov intervention with no self-awareness for what it might mean for this person, especially given the way they vote is essentially to take money from people like me to give to people like this..


More and more bitcoiners choosing block height to mark their life events like births and marriages is deep af.

Why block height and not time? Just because we love the corn? Or because block height is truth and time is not. Time is different in each part of the world. It can be manipulated by the state and is twice a year currently. Dates and years are mostly arbitrary and inconsitent across cultures and civilizations.

Block height is absolute. No trusted third party. No means to alter the record. An immutable stamp in time. Fucking A.

I had an irreverent English teacher in high school who described the "greasy poll of life." Strikes me as a perfect analogy when describing the effort required to succeed in the fiat world.

Those on the fiat standard work harder and harder, trying to climb the greasy poll, whilst always just sliding backwards unable to counterbalance the gravity of debasement and monetary inflation.

#Bitcoin gives its users the world's best tool to fight the gravity of debasement, ethically, without having to resort to the  corruption the grease otherwise incentives.

Future historians will record our era to be one of unprecedented incompetence, criminality and insanity. When the white man insouciantly ceded his inheritance to the politically correct Bolsheviks, it set the stage for our current cascade into the abyss. How and whether we manage to pull ourselves from the brink is anyone’s guess.  Our ancestors sacrificed so much for us… and we, in our complacent comfort have thrown it all to the wind.  Nature does not tolerate weakness. She makes extinct all life forms incapable of the will to live. We are no exception.

1. Shut down the world because of a flu
2. Print 40% of the total amount of USD
3. Hike rates because of inflation
4. Send Billions to Ukraine to inflate more
5. Tax capital gains on inflated assets

You should hedge against this with #bitcoin.

Badbank to COPA!


COPA coming to Samourai’s defence is what I expect to see announced next. This is a historic case that will determine the future of Bitcoin.

The high stakes Samourai case is no different to Bernstein v. United States, and requires a final, definitive answer to the fundamental (already answered) question, “What is the true nature of all cryptographic operations taking place in computers?”.

And Bitcoin is simply math being performed in computers, and it is literally nothing more than that. The same arguments for Bernstein, and Phil Zimmerman’s case (http://www.skypoint.com/members/gimonca/philzima.html) apply to Samourai, and the same defences should work if The Constitution hasn’t changed. And it hasn’t.

If COPA do not rise to this challenge and defend the underdog, then the floodgates will be opened for the missapplication of money laws to all Bitcoin operations no matter what they are.

At the fundamental level, Bitcoin is speech. This is not “Semantics”; this is a plain statement of fact, established in law.

Everything you do in Bitcoin is protected speech. If you believe that this event applies only to “mixing”, you are mistaken.

The simple act of “moving” Bitcoin from one address you are known to control and are registered with, to another address that is an “unregistered Bitcoin address” could be construed as a criminal act in the future if COPA don’t kill this.

And I hope they kill it. With fire.

The point is to stay solvent in the next few years without needing to rely on your bitcoin stash.

If you manage that, you'll emerge as a sovereign individual with generational wealth, and have a chance to integrate with or shape the new economic paradigm.

If not, then your stash will get you through, and you'll start over with zero instead of negative, which is still something I guess.

It's likely that will be a similar paradigm shift to post WWII, with widespread poverty, rationing, and other challenges. I don't think it will be a dystopian apocalypse but it will feel pretty rubbish in the western world not used to such a rapid drop in comfort levels.

I'm thinking about how sovereign individuals helped to build society in previous generations, in particular the landed gentry and the new industrialists on both sides of the atlantic in the 19th century. It's Andrew Carnegie's "gospel of wealth" and the Lord Shaftesbury types in Britain.

Bitcoiners are already getting started with these kind of projects, but it's something to think about as we enter an era where food, clothing, and shelter will be far more pressing concerns that yachts and lambos. We're having to grow up fast, the age of 69,420 memes is passing and the age of bearing responsbility for the future of humanity is almost here.

PS - Generational wealth may not mean a dragon's hoard, but simply having something in your hand to pass on to the next generation, which they in turn can build on, care for, and pass on again. Generational wealth itself implies training the next generation on the responsibilty that comes with holding, but that's a whole nother story for another time.

Privacy is necessary for an open society in the electronic age. Privacy is not secrecy. A private matter is something one doesn't want the whole world to know, but a secret matter is something one doesn't want anybody to know. Privacy is the power to selectively reveal oneself to the world.

If two parties have some sort of dealings, then each has a memory of their interaction. Each party can speak about their own memory of this; how could anyone prevent it? One could pass laws against it, but the freedom of speech, even more than privacy, is fundamental to an open society; we seek not to restrict any speech at all. If many parties speak together in the same forum, each can speak to all the others and aggregate together knowledge about individuals and other parties. The power of electronic communications has enabled such group speech, and it will not go away merely because we might want it to.

Since we desire privacy, we must ensure that each party to a transaction have knowledge only of that which is directly necessary for that transaction. Since any information can be spoken of, we must ensure that we reveal as little as possible. In most cases personal identity is not salient. When I purchase a magazine at a store and hand cash to the clerk, there is no need to know who I am. When I ask my electronic mail provider to send and receive messages, my provider need not know to whom I am speaking or what I am saying or what others are saying to me; my provider only need know how to get the message there and how much I owe them in fees. When my identity is revealed by the underlying mechanism of the transaction, I have no privacy. I cannot here selectively reveal myself; I must always reveal myself.

Therefore, privacy in an open society requires anonymous transaction systems. Until now, cash has been the primary such system. An anonymous transaction system is not a secret transaction system. An anonymous system empowers individuals to reveal their identity when desired and only when desired; this is the essence of privacy.

Privacy in an open society also requires cryptography. If I say something, I want it heard only by those for whom I intend it. If the content of my speech is available to the world, I have no privacy. To encrypt is to indicate the desire for privacy, and to encrypt with weak cryptography is to indicate not too much desire for privacy. Furthermore, to reveal one's identity with assurance when the default is anonymity requires the cryptographic signature.

We cannot expect governments, corporations, or other large, faceless organizations to grant us privacy out of their beneficence. It is to their advantage to speak of us, and we should expect that they will speak. To try to prevent their speech is to fight against the realities of information. Information does not just want to be free, it longs to be free. Information expands to fill the available storage space. Information is Rumor's younger, stronger cousin; Information is fleeter of foot, has more eyes, knows more, and understands less than Rumor.

We must defend our own privacy if we expect to have any. We must come together and create systems which allow anonymous transactions to take place. People have been defending their own privacy for centuries with whispers, darkness, envelopes, closed doors, secret handshakes, and couriers. The technologies of the past did not allow for strong privacy, but electronic technologies do.

We the Cypherpunks are dedicated to building anonymous systems. We are defending our privacy with cryptography, with anonymous mail forwarding systems, with digital signatures, and with electronic money.

Cypherpunks write code. We know that someone has to write software to defend privacy, and since we can't get privacy unless we all do, we're going to write it. We publish our code so that our fellow Cypherpunks may practice and play with it. Our code is free for all to use, worldwide. We don't much care if you don't approve of the software we write. We know that software can't be destroyed and that a widely dispersed system can't be shut down.

Cypherpunks deplore regulations on cryptography, for encryption is fundamentally a private act. The act of encryption, in fact, removes information from the public realm. Even laws against cryptography reach only so far as a nation's border and the arm of its violence. Cryptography will ineluctably spread over the whole globe, and with it the anonymous transactions systems that it makes possible.

For privacy to be widespread it must be part of a social contract. People must come and together deploy these systems for the common good. Privacy only extends so far as the cooperation of one's fellows in society. We the Cypherpunks seek your questions and your concerns and hope we may engage you so that we do not deceive ourselves. We will not, however, be moved out of our course because some may disagree with our goals.

The Cypherpunks are actively engaged in making the networks safer for privacy. Let us proceed together apace.

Onward.

Privacy is normal and good.

There has been an effort among authorities to make “money laundering” and “financial privacy” the same thing. That is, the mere act of moving money privately itself becomes a crime. That’s not okay.

Money laundering is when money that is obtained through crime is concealed by obfuscating it with clean money. The actual crime is the initial non-financial crime (say, mob stuff), and historically money laundering involves manual activity to work with the criminals.

Now that open source tech can make certain transactions private, authorities increasingly equate all private money transfer with money laundering, even if the developer of the open source tech had no direct involvement with criminals. Authorities target them regardless, and sanction the technology itself. Financial privacy becomes synonymous with crime in their minds, and in the minds of the public.

I'm not here on Nostr because I run away from Twitter. I'm here because I'm in search for an internet as it once used to be.

I'm a hacker who fucking hates that social media is in the hands of private companies. I remember using IRC and meeting likeminded anons online. I remember what the internet utopia felt like. People who didn't care what your name or status is, people who aren't interested in sharing their boring holiday pics with random strangers online. I'm not interested in what politicians and influencers have to say. I don't care about the latest mainstream trend that's going viral.

I want random weird interesting smart people around me who share their ideas in a free and open space that isn't controlled by anyone.

That's all I'm looking for. There aren't many such spaces on the internet.


There are 5 people and:

3 decide all 5 should get tatoos.
Because the majority decided, the 2 which didnt want to, must get tatoos.
This is democracy.

4 select one to be their ruler and make all decisions for them.
eventually, if they dont like the decisions, they will kill that ruler and find a new one.
this is monarchy

2 decide that 3 are privledged oppresors, and berate them until they hate themselves and appologize.
The 2 then kill the 3 and take all their food. Once the food is gone, they all die, the two still blaming the first 3.
this is communism.

5 make a decision which is best for each individual. Where those interests overlap, they work together voluntarily to make their labor more effective, and for mutual benefit.
This is anarchy.

I'm going to rant about cheese but bear with me.

So France is famous for it right and a popular one is Brie. Normally you'd get a decent share of a round whole which ends up as a fat wedge. Since the state fwcked everyone in the arse with inflation the wedge has become so small it's basically a slice. Which means you have to cut it differently and instead of nice long tasty rectangles it comes out in shitty little squares.

I can picture millions of French people sitting down, cutting a now disfigured slice of traditional Brie and not one will ask wtf is happening? Why is the cheese I once ate at my grandmother's table now so small and retarded? Where is the rest of it? How did it come to this?

But alas they remain in their slumber, unaware of the state theft perpetrated against them and their beloved cheese.


There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this.

Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And then remember this. The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks.

Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that.

And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this. Try.

GM. Today I zapped devs, stacked sats and performed a small act of civil disobedience.


Whenever politicians clutch pearls or attempt to brow beat bitcoiners about money laundering it is important to remind them that the US government is the biggest money launderer on the planet.

The Treasury issues debt out of thin air, the money gets handed to the Department of Defense and they overpay defense contractors 900x for commonplace nuts and bolts, among other things. This leads to obscene profits for the war industry and they shave off a small chunk of those profits to ensure the politicians that will vote for bigger defense budgets stay in power. Rinse and repeat.

This isn’t confined to the war industry either. It happens across the spectrum. Another example is Operation Warp Speed, which was an example of the Federal government directly funding and obscenely overpaying for a COVID vaccine that poisoned people.

What we’re witnessing is the largest “looting of the treasury” in human history. Politicians and the corporate interests that back them are robbing the American people blind. Taking their money directly via taxes, indirectly via inflation and at the same time running up the biggest government debt bill the world has ever seen.

The politicians who enable this and then clutch pearls about bitcoin’s potential to enable money laundering are the scum of the Earth.

We are all being robbed in broad daylight and the thieves are making you out to be the criminal. Truly diabolical

The government is not your friend. It exist to strip you of your wealth and your freedom.

There was a farmer who grew excellent quality corn. Every year he won the award for the best grown corn. One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something interesting about how he grew it. The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his neighbors. “How can you afford to share your best seed corn with your neighbors when they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?” the reporter asked.
“Why sir,” said the farmer, “Didn’t you know? The wind picks up pollen from the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field. If my neighbors grow inferior corn, cross-pollination will steadily degrade the quality of my corn. If I am to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors grow good corn.”
So is with our lives... Those who want to live meaningfully and well must help enrich the lives of others, for the value of a life is measured by the lives it touches. And those who choose to be happy must help others find happiness, for the welfare of each is bound up with the welfare of all. https://image.nostr.build/ff0e76416fbe9de55dbc4116e32ae2f3e0264aa7b2a93883b81ec3a14fef017f.jpg


You asked the correct question, forget and stack.


In 30 years, #Bitcoin    will be a part of everyone's life. Even if you can't visualize this yet, put in the time to study it.

If you're a beginner, here are some topics you can start learning about:

(BOOKMARK THIS POST - refer back to it later!)

- Why gold was money for thousands of years
- Central banking
- Fractional reserve banking
- Executive Order 6102
- The Nixon Shock
- What is fiat currency
- Money creation in the legacy financial system
- Bitcoin supply and demand
- Decentralization

After you put in the time, it becomes obvious that decentralized uncorruptible money is where the world is going.

Regular everyday people don't want to be scammed by their bank and the only way to do so is to eliminate the bank from our finances.

Bitcoin does that for you by allowing you to store your wealth in your own possession instead of trusting banks to hold it for you.

So today when i pick up my daughters from school today. The oldest is all excited with a piece of paper in her hand. I asked her what it was, she said it was her permission slip to go on her field trip to go to the Zoo.

I proceed to read the note. The teacher sent this note out to ask the parents that she wanted to take the kids to the Zoo. Due to the PTA board being dissolved for some reason she couldnt get ANY funding approved for the trip. So she was asking all the parents if they could support paying for the trip for their child and if this was too burdensome for any family to do she'd understand. I felt bad for my daughter cuz i know she seemed super excited for this trip to the zoo.

The trip costs $21 dollars per kid. Her class size is 32 students. Can we raise a million or so sats here to pay for the entire class to go?

Id be forever grateful to be able to pay for her class to go and help the parents out there that cant afford to be able to spend this money for their child. I dont ask for satoshis like this but i think this is a worthwhile idea to do for my child and hwr class to experience the zoo.

Please repost for more visibility on more relays.

I would like to do commentary videos on the UN security council proceedings, comparing and contrasting the statements made by everybody on world events, showing how for example on what should be done next, 13 of 15 call for "restraint", 1 points out acts of reprisal are barred by (refer to document), one says we have an obligation not to let it go unanswered, etc.

On most issues, there is near-unaninimity, and only one or two holdouts.  And I think people should be aware of when their country is in agreement with most of the world, and when their country is in disagreement with most of the world, or when the world is equally split.  Because local newscasters, they don't tell you that.  They sell you what your government wants them to sell you.

And the UN security council is a very good place to watch and see what is really going on.

Unfortunately I don't have near enough time, or the patients to clip together tiny clip after tiny clip to make the points I want to make the way I want to make them. So this is a pipe dream, really. Speaking of, I should reload my pipe.

If someone is attending a protest march or any other political event, post the photos of the event on Nostr. Tell all of your friends who cannot attend the event from around the country or around the world that if they want to see the event photos, they need to download this app and create a wallet. If they like the photos that are taken, they should zap that photo. And anyone who takes photos from their phone at the event should also post them to nostr. If they're good photos, they'll get paid for them automatically.
If you are the organizers of the event, put into the budget 100k sats will be allocated to zapping photos. If anyone else wants to add more sats to the pool, they're welcome to.

#Bitcoin     is going up forever.

The computing power of the Bitcoin network does over 600 quintillion calculations per second.

Quintillion.

Per second.

One quintillion seconds was 32 billion years ago. Multiply that by 600 and you get 19.2 trillion years.

The Big Bang supposedly happened 13.8 billion years ago.

19.2 trillion divided by 13.8 billion = 1,391.

The computing power of the #Bitcoin     network is 1,391 times the length of the universe’s existence.

In case you didn’t get that.

The computing power of the #Bitcoin     network is 1,391 times the length of the universe’s existence.

Now, calculations per second (a rate of computation) and seconds (a unit of time) aren’t necessarily relatable. This is more about understanding the magnitude of 600 quintillion calculations per second.

A year ago, Bitcoin’s computing power was 250 quintillion calculations per second. That number has more than doubled in just one year, with no signs of slowing down.

#Bitcoin    is showing you there is a verifiably, absolutely scarce asset secured by a computer network 1,391 times more powerful than the length of all time. And that network is only getting more powerful.

Do you think it’s a coincidence Bitcoin is the best performing asset since its inception 15 years ago?

#Bitcoin    is the apex predator of wealth storage.

You cannot store your value better than in a place that is verifiably, absolutely scarce, especially when that place is secured by computers doing 600 quintillion calculations per second.

There is an asset that they are NEVER making any more of secured by 19.2 trillion years of time.

Satoshi Nakamoto birthed #Bitcoin     15 years ago, on January 3rd, 2009.

That genesis included the innovation of programmable, absolutely finite scarcity tethered to the physical world via Proof-of-Work.

Since then, people and computers all over the world have continuously joined the network to secure that innovation.

More people and computers will be incentivized to join the network because they want to secure the innovation that protects and propagates their wealth better than any other asset in the universe, until the point where an overwhelmingly massive amount of human and computer power have joined the network, at which point the world will realize they can use #Bitcoin    as money, just as Satoshi Nakamoto wanted #Bitcoin    to be used.

There are two certainties in life.

1) Death
2) There will only be 21 million Bitcoin ever to exist

When #Bitcoin    is global money, everything in the world will be priced in Bitcoin.

We can make more of anything else, but we can’t make more Bitcoin.

More and more and more and more divided by the same 21 million.

For perpetuity.

For the rest of time.

#Bitcoin     is going up forever.

hola NOSTR 🤙 What is the "deflation myth" and why do economists lie to you about it?

https://v.nostr.build/9z267.mp4


Your flex isn't a flex.

No one cares about your car.
Or your bigwig job title.
Or your watch.

I was just in a room full of c suite execs from fortune 500 companies.

People that have reached the pinnacle of traditional success.

But they aren't in control of their time.

Most of them completely missed their children growing up.

Many of them are unhealthy.

And few of them know how to enjoy life, because they have spent their lives focused on the next rung of the corporate ladder.

Conditioning themselves to live for "someday" that will never arrive.

In their defense, when they started their careers decades ago, it was a lot harder to achieve a high quality of life outside of the big corporate setting.

But now the status symbols they aimed at (the title, the big house, etc.) have lost value.

The new status symbols are:
- Control over your time
- Control over where you work
- Freedom to watch your children grow up
- Ability for your spouse to stay home
- Ability to travel whenever you want
- A fit body and a healthy mind

Just like the old status symbols, nobody really cares whether you achieve these things.

But your family will. And that's what matter most.

So how to get these things?

We live in an age of incredible opportunity.

The opportunities for individuals and small teams to build wealth via business have never been greater.

You no longer need to slave away in an office for decades to bank $10+ million.

Traditional media used to monopolize the power to influence; today that power has been decentralized by platforms like X.

Similarly, corporate influence has lost ground to individual influence.

Authentic individuals are the brands that people now trust.

And people will always prefer to buy from brands they trust.

This is an opportunity for those who recognize it and act upon it. That alone should make you optimistic.

But what if you don't want to start a business?

You can still get there by choosing to save in #Bitcoin

Families that have adopted a Bitcoin standard for their savings have seen dramatic increases in living standards compared to people who save in assets like the S&P500.

For every Lambo-flaunting crypto scammer, there are probably 1,000+ families spending more time together because of Bitcoin.

And at the end of the day, that's the only status symbol that really has any substance.

Repost from @Stack Hodler https://image.nostr.build/a6a9703e5ab30eb33c820a3188c5b072035300e2555e4020dc34a36c5d0c25b6.jpg


To stack the corn hard, you had to believe with total conviction you were right and everyone else was wrong.

You had to beleive it through 80% drawdowns, shitcoin manias and msm fud.

You had to beleive it when everyone was laughing at you.

But you were right.

They'll say you were lucky, that you don't deserve it, that anyone could have done it.

But they didn't,

You did,

and you were right.

4 sats. This seems to have sent.


A lot of people think #Bitcoin    is unfair.

They see that certain people have a lot (eg. $MSTR owns 1% of the total supply) while they have none (most people have ZERO allocation).

They say:

"If Bitcoin goes to millions of dollars, all of these people will be so wealthy. The wealth gap would be enormous! I don't like that, so I'm not taking part in this new system."

Or

"I'm not risking my money on a speculative asset that has no utility and is a Ponzi scheme!!"

Or

"Governments will take it down so I'm not going to put any of my hard-earned wealth in it."

This shows me that most people DON'T WANT TO TAKE A RISK.

You have to understand that without risk there is no reward in any aspect of life, but ESPECIALLY when it comes to money.

We ALL have the same opportunity to buy at the current market prices ($64,000).

We all HAD the same opportunity to buy Bitcoin after FTX collapsed ($15,600).

We all have the same resources to study, and yet most people will NOT put in the time.

Some people studied the situation and took a calculated risk: they invested in the future of the Bitcoin network.

They gave up their comfort (US Dollars are "comfortable" - they consistently lose 5-15% of their purchasing power every year to inflation)...

and took a risk (Bitcoin's US dollar price is volatile - it can drop 70% in days or weeks in terms of US Dollars, but can also rise 1,000% in a year).

When Bitcoin is $1M, you don't think the risk-takers deserve the benefits that come with Bitcoin's price appreciation?

What seems like a gamble to you is a risk-free bet to me and a lot of other people out there (do the research, maybe we're missing something - let me know in the comments and I'm sure someone will help you out).

If you're not willing to learn about an asset, you don't deserve the rewards that come with it.

A lot of people know Bitcoin's price went up over the last 1.5 years and yet they didn't take action.

They didn't want to take a risk.

They want stability and comfort.

If you're reading this and you're ignoring the message, you will have nobody but yourself to blame in 20-30 years if/when Bitcoin is a few million dollars and your real estate portfolio can barely even buy 0.01 BTC.

Bitcoin will change everything about how we account for value.

It will take the corruption out of money.

It will turn "real estate investments" into houses owned AND occupied by the same person because real estate will be a liability rather than an investment.

You don't even have to buy Bitcoin.

Invest your time into learning about it.

I don't think you will regret it.


If it reads 'study finds', the objective is 'control minds'.


Congrats for your hard work and recognition. Fully deserved.


😂 I'm buying this place..


The UK must accept that there is more to an economy than property and embrace Bitcoin

This is a long form article, you can read it in https://habla.news/a/naddr1qqxnzde3xqurjvekx5unxve3qgsgyyqq26d8yrsx6mfypynpf5whmdpw3znnekhllmvnslpduxvq38crqsqqqa28cxqfzc

From the 1980s through to 2022, buying real estate was how Brits secured generational wealth, and in some cases became ultra-rich. Owning property was synonymous with upward mobility and freedom in the UK.

But that's over now. The bill for artificially low interest rates, high inflation, interventionist housing policies etc. is coming due. From being on the path to freedom, landlords are now debt ridden and burdened with taxes, maintenance costs and energy bills. And their customers cannot afford to pay.

Landlords are increasingly becoming tired looking and pessimistic, as the below video shows. Being a landlord in Britain is losing its gravitas as is the country in general.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5h8bcp3HNc4

If this is how property owners feel, then why would a first-time buyer want to go near UK real estate? The answer is of course to escape the rapid and inexorable debasement of the pound. But property is only less bad than GBP. It's time for the UK to get rid of the mindset that owning a property will set you free. Propping up the UK housing market at all costs is what got us into this mess.

What will set you free, both financially and spiritually, is Bitcoin. Michael Saylor explains how better than anyone in the below video.

How much energy does the U.S. government use collecting and storing the data of U.S. citizens and those living outside the U.S.?

How much energy does the U.K. use for tracking and surveiling it's own people?

How much energy is used by fiat and banks?

Why don't people ever bring up how much energy is spent on abusing humans?

They have no problem declaring how much energy #Bitcoin uses to free humanity, yet have nothing to say about all the energy that's used for hurting it.

Gm nostriches, have an awesome day, enjoy the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. If you happen to get THAT phone call from that normie friend, obviously stay humble and help them out, but also consider this……

I spoke to you about #bitcoin because I consider it important. You did not value my opinion enough to go and explore the topic yourself to try and understand why? You didn’t have the mental curiosity to question your beliefs and find out something new.

I cannot teach you anything (Archimedes), I can’t make you understand anything. It is down to you to ask questions, listen, watch, read, make an effort to get your own answers. Is it a good time to buy? I’m not going to give you an answer. It might have been a good time to buy with hindsight.

Asking me again in 2 years and today may have been a good time to buy, but unless you understand why you’re buying #bitcoin, you probably shouldn’t. All I ask is you show me the courtesy of spending a little time looking into this subject before the next time you ask.

A lack of an inquisitive nature providing the drive to want to learn and better yourself is actually a much bigger issue than whether now is or is not a good time to buy an asset to protect your time value that you don’t understand. Think about THIS before asking anymore questions. https://x.com/_bitcoinmatrix/status/1690842150877933568?s=46

The Millenial Dream

Go to school, study hard, get good grades so you’ll be accepted into University, go into debt for a degree or else you’ll be flipping burgers.

Get your degree and enter the workforce 50k in debt. Entry level jobs are impossible to find between outsourcing and the lack of practical skills Grads bring to the table.

Get lucky and find one, grind 12 hour days, pay half your income to the Government for Services you don’t use, pay increasing rents as the real estate bubble inflates, get promoted and job hop to bump your income to keep pace.

Save for a house deposit, 20% of the median house which is now 10x median income so it takes a decade, get there and it’s not enough for even a dogbox apartment let alone a house, now banks won’t lend to you with rates over 5%

Can’t afford kids. The food is killing you. Dating is ruined between instathots and red pill chuds. Get lectured daily by Boomers who don’t understand the world. Watch rampant corruption and cronyism destroy your politics, immigration destroy your community, and fiat destroy your purchasing power.

Fund wars you oppose. Bail out banks you hate. Pay welfare to ideologues who demand more and more nanny statism and taxation. Subsidise renewable energy which increase your power bills. Wait in long lines at the hospital for your subpar care.

Do all that in the hopes you’ll eventually be fortunate enough to be exit liquidity for some Boomer who sold you this dream..

Or The New Millennial Dream

Move as much of your wealth into #Bitcoin as possible. Watch the crumbling from the sidelines whilst starving the entire system and protecting your purchasing power.

Wait out the Boomers til your digital real estate on the ledger is the new asset in demand, then instead of selling it to them, take the reins over the system as the new financial elites and dismantle this entire shitshow. Eliminate the parasite class. Detach the welfare state. Reduce government to a competitive service provider which cant extract wealth at will.

Set entrepreneurs free. Let markets work. No more free lunches. No more cantillionaireing. No more nonsense laws.

People who will control a larger share of capital in the future will be those who could let go of their ego, they will be low time preference people who were willing to admit that everything they have been told about history and the world may not be entirely true.

A few things that occurred to me: If nostr:npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5m is really doing a speculative attack on the dollar (and he’s not the only one), first off, he better hire some good security.

Second, if the dollar is under speculative attack, which it seems to be, then Powell will have to raise interest rates, not lower them. If he lowers them, the attacks will escalate.

Third, if he raises rates to defend the dollar, bonds will get killed even more. Imagine owning long-term debt in a currency that’s under speculative attack!

Fourth, if the US raises rates, other countries will have to raise theirs too, otherwise no one will buy their debt. But they too are under attack, and they are even less likely to be able to service the higher rates. I’m not sure what they can do.

Fifth, if the US realizes it can’t defend against the attack, it’ll have to buy bitcoin while it still has the resources ior seize it from the ETFs 6102-style (per nostr:npub1s5yq6wadwrxde4lhfs56gn64hwzuhnfa6r9mj476r5s4hkunzgzqrs6q7z).

Sixth, if this is occurring to someone like me who knows nothing, it’s probably occurred to people in the USG. Might they conclude that it’s time to raise rates high enough to slow down the attack, acquire some coins by hook or crook, and gain a relative advantage over the rest of the world by owning a disproportionate share of its digital gold?

I’m probably missing something, but wanted to put this out there.


Now I have the soundtrack in my head.

* Tax-free forever, even when you withdraw in retirement, so long as you meet some basic requirements—as bitcoin’s value grows, your taxes do not.
* All transactions within a Roth IRA avoid tax—there’s no need to track tax basis
* Access to contributions before retirement age are tax penalty-free, meaning they’re accessible in a pinch
* There are no required minimum distributions—you can hold your bitcoin forever and pass it tax-free to heirs.

This is financial advice.


Impressive as ever.


This is what I don't get...

Just because other assets can be stolen from you, why do you want the same for #Bitcoin   ?

The MAIN POINT is that Bitcoin is the first asset that can give you self-sovereignty

Why do you WANT governments to be able to take your wealth? 😭😭

This is Stockholm syndrome at its finest

Bitcoin is freedom, and most people will NOT participate because they don't want to be free

They want to be slaves to the system


Yep. Same clown show as ever. Waiting for the CRASH back to 60k reports.

Yes, yes, no.


There's an option in the admin tools to open a channel with any node if you connect to it first. It's better if you remove the LSP though so you fully take advantage of the manual channels for sending and receiving. But you'll lose all automated channel stuff and will need to manually manage channels yourself from here on out.

Was talking to my wife last night about my fear for the coming decades in the U.S. regarding the economy and affordability.

For my family, and many of us here, #Bitcoin is security and purchasing power for the future that I feel confident in. I am worried about folks who do not have or intend to hold #Bitcoin. I personally believe we are just getting started on this inflation journey, life will continue to get more expensive for the average American family, while they look to either political party for help, of which options have been limited or only making the affordability issues worse.

So yeah, when politicians or wealthy folks go on benders describing how terrible or useless bitcoin is, I get pissed off because, at the moment, it is our one saving grace for a future where you can actually afford things and take care of your family. You are intentionally trying to disincentivize people from securing a better future. I don’t care if it’s ignorance or what, fuck them.

Stack sats, and if your loved ones aren’t ready yet stack sats for them. We’re building a better tomorrow 🧡

Satoshi never left,  probably burned the paper seeds after half a bottle of *select unisex liquor* and thus lives the zap life of an ordinary pleb.

Apologies for this speculation Mr. Mallers


If Satoshi passed them on, even to the most trusted loved one, then there's 2 people who know. Then factor in the trusted loved ones loved ones. Not everybody will have Satoshi's resolve.
So no, I don't think they'll move, it's my hope anyway. The greatest monument we've ever had.

People think the next big milestone is a new ATH in USD. Fair.

Then $100,000. Maybe.

But the biggest milestone will be when people are saying things like "40K sats/hour is a livable wage." I think were a long way off from that being common.


#IncreasingEnergyConsumption can be seen through the lens of the #Kardashev scale, where advanced civilizations harness more energy efficiently.

#Bitcoin, as an economical incentive, drives the utilization of cheaper and cleaner energy sources.

Embracing this approach facilitates technological progress, economic growth, and a more sustainable future, aligning with the principles of a developing civilization striving for higher energy efficiency.

Nothing changes for the plebs.
Just HODL sats and chill. #Bitcoin is in its price discovery phase.
Humans are waking up to the hardest asset ever discovered. This will take a bit of getting used to for people.

AUSTRALIA JUST WELCOMED #BITCOIN ALL TIME HIGH https://image.nostr.build/38f469b3e300f8b79a74d63047d930cec27e95fec46a30bb8a00e5ef8226b5c1.jpg


The higher the price goes, the more liquid Bitcoin is, the more able it is to demonetise (read: eat) other assets.

Countries can’t trade oil in Bitcoin today for example. $1.2 Trillion market cap with ~10% available supply isn’t nearly enough. At $21 Trillion it might be feasible at small scale but prob needs to be higher.

When countries start refusing to trade oil for dollars and instead demand Bitcoin because it is feasible by liquidity and infinitely better than the paper promises of fiat, the world starts shifting.

That means they need/want it on their balance sheet and as you know, they can’t print it.

Suddenly their balance sheet isn’t about printing to consume, it’s about producing to get BTC.

Governments **will not willingly adopt Bitcoin**. Be very very very clear on this.

They will be forced to by the market and the market can only force them when it’s liquid enough to meet all the needs that a government which doesn’t want to get run out of office and guillotined, has.

They are gonna print until printing gets them killed.

If nation states are to continue existing in 100 years it will be because they were forced into competitive service provision when their ability to print was taken away from them by market forces.

Personally I’d rather they don’t exist but realistically that is too big of a change in one go; separating money and state such that they’re a mere opt-in service provider who has to compete globally with other states will be enough to bring about a new enlightenment and that is enough for humanity to handle.

Bitcoin needs to demonitise the asset classes used to park fiat wealth and be liquid enough for nation state trade in order to force states down the path they refuse to willingly tread.


You painted it and it asks why.

Every single Google software/service is just an excuse to gather a shit ton of information about you. It's basically all spyware. They use:

🔸 Gmail to scan your emails.
🔸 Gboard to keylog everything you type on your phone.
🔸 Google Chrome to track all your browsing history.
🔸 Google Ads to track you accross the web.
🔸 Google Cloud to scan and spy on all your files.
🔸 Google Photos to scan and spy on all your photos.
🔸 Google Pay to track your purchase history.
🔸 Google AI's to track all your prompts.
🔸 Their earch engine to track your searchs.
🔸 Youtube to track your interests and watch history.

Various apps like Calendar, Notes, and Tasks are all collecting data about you aswell. A single company knows all your life. Google controls your life, because you let them.

They are in bed with the government as well, so everything about you will be shared when SHTF. Don't wait any longer, delete your Google account, stop using their services, take control of your data, your privacy and your life.

Exit Google.


Happy Mt. Gox day Plebstriches. GET YOUR BTC OFF EXCHANGES.

I used to think stocks are the best investment

I used to think inflation is a good thing

I used to think the tax code was fair

I used to think the financial system was designed to help us rather than hurt us

As I'm presented with new information, I change my mind, as anyone should

The fiat currency system is designed to keep the working class working forever

The wealthy get many advantages that the poor don't, just because they have more money

This is why #Bitcoin    will change the world

#BTC    is fair money that gives EVERYONE the same property rights and level of freedom


Shameless grifter.


That's me listening to Space Oddity.


Hold my beer, I'm going opening a pc 'repair' store.


We're being gaslit to believe that the problems we have are unsolvable.

They are completely solvable. But that would remove rent-seekers from their positions, so the solvable problems don't get solved.

The value of your house has not increased

The utility of having a roof over your head does not change over time

What DID change over the last few years was the value of the money that you use to value the house

As your money loses value, the price of a house goes up

If you use fake money, your cost of living will go up forever

#Bitcoin fixes this


#Bitcoin is at ATH
