Bitcoin, Privacy, and the War on Digital Freedom ft. Matt Odell

#Bitcoin & privacy expert nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx and I discuss the state of digital freedom given recent government attacks on privacy. Will self custody be banned next? And how do we preserve privacy with mass adoption?

Where does it come from? The New York Strip is cut from the short loin, situated behind the ribs but ahead of the sirloin. This muscle does less work, resulting in tender meat with a fine grain.

How do I wifi my S9?!?
I’m literally about to plug in a space heater to help dry some stain because I don’t have Ethernet in the garage.

I HAVE FAILED AS A BITCOINER


Did they increase prices 130% gradually or immediately?

Any Hikvision/CCTV experts out here?
I have some recorded footage of vehicles going passed the camera in both directions and I need to know total vehicles counted and which way they were going and vehicle classification. Happy to pay in sats!


Bad take


Are these bad boys made from organic cotton for the freaks?


Although it was predictable ahead of time that so many Palestinian civilians including children would die as a result of Israel’s response to the attack on Israel by Hamas, as the numbers continue to add up it is increasingly hard to watch.

Half of Gaza’s population is under the age of 18. There is not much more sad in this world than children, cut off from electricity and communication, violently dying from air strikes in darkness.

And sadly this happens in other places of the world too.

For much of human history, people were only aware of their own local area. Now we have awareness of large swaths of the world, and so we can keep track of tragedies in real time. We then desensitize ourselves out of necessity. Like, the sheer amount of negative information and unsolvable problems hit us through media, and in order to productively do something to add value to someone else, there is little choice other than compartmentalization it. An electrician can’t be caught up in the troubles of the world as he goes out each day and fixes things and building things, for example. In order to add order to his small part of the world, he can’t be fully caught up with its global chaos.

And then, I see these crazy protestors tearing down flyers about kidnapped Israelis, as though that activity could possibly be the best use of their time. People have a strong tendency to want to be part of something bigger and longer lasting than themselves, whether it is their religion, their community, their ideology, or their work. But some people chose such fruitless ways of doing it. Yes, you can and should advocate for not bombing children. No, you shouldn’t try to erase what happened to murdered or captured Israelis either. It is not rocket science.

The world is an increasingly polarized place, and my biggest concern is for those polarizations to be used to take rights away in a more broader context, or to wage war between larger opponents. Politicians will propagandize any small share of “crypto funding” to bad groups to justify more restrictions on those technologies and privacy in general. As countries go through sovereign debt crises, having some sort of enemy to point to helps their narrative for capital controls and keeping their citizens in currency and bonds as they are inflated away. I’ve studied the 1940s financial environment too much to be unaware of this.

Always look through to the bigger story, and ideally with a perspective of empathy toward many sides of any complex issue. Strive to be able to articulate your opponent’s view as well as they can, so that your counter argument can be most effective and surgical in its nature. And then, when there is nothing you can do about something globally, try instead to bring order and reason and improvement and kindness to whatever small portion of the world that you can.

Dr Freud

Dr Freud's 3 tips for life: Stack sats, love thy neighbour and eat the meat


Zoom out and think about where #Bitcoin was ten years ago (sub $100 with minimal adoption). And now think where it will be in ten years from now with fiat on the verge of collapse and $BItcoin already being adopted by nation states. Stack accordingly.


Went on #Twitter today to see the state of things and noticing the lack of zap functionality made it feel so dated.


What are your plans for them?


I continue to view nostr:npub1a3hrd4wfawr578d5y5l0qgmh7lx8q6tumfq0h7eymmttt52veexqkcfg37 as one of the best podcasts out there. And probably the best podcast relative to its size.

They spent a whole episode talking about risks, which is important.

https://youtu.be/jzF6jg7d7-I?si=AObmQkcmU8iqkpJ-

Some podcasts speak to an echo chamber and reinforce their own views. Dan and Josh from Blue Collar Bitcoin are always reaching to challenge themselves and their audience.

As much as I like Austrian economic theory, what I really love is good money *winning in the field*. I love to see practical discussions about good money from people around the world who aren’t in the primary business of talking about money. They end up doing it more interestingly than most monetary theorists.


I can't believe how good the game theory of Bitcoin is. Amazes me everyday.

The block size
The supply cap
The difficulty adjustment (absolute genius)
The ~10min block intervals
The fee market
The private/public keys
The UTXO set
The p2p network
The adversarial and anti-fragile nature of it all

Just incredible foresight. Never seen anything like it before.
