Podcast Share, I just listened to a really good podcast on Blue Collar Bitcoin:

"BCB117_MAURICIO DI BARTOLOMEO: BlackRock ETF & The Next Phase of Bitcoin"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIdM5rpyV0s

This one had Mauricio Di Bartolomeo (co-founder & CSO of Ledn) and he really resonated with me especially this part about 'being your own bank' and the friction that happens with that approach.

Mauricio:

"If you were worried about your Bitcoin and your self-custody and you have a fear that your custodian May Fail or that your country might go Rogue you take your steps “become your own bank.”

But you know what's really difficult? Telling somebody that they have to become their own bank when they never have, almost impossible. It's like me all of a sudden. it's like me telling my daughter tomorrow “hey sweetie the cops are gone so I'm gonna need you to be you the police so start strapping or even if you don't have these self-defense things there's a pistol protect yourself” or or I went and told my wife “sorry honey the doctors are on strike so as of tomorrow we're all gonna have to start learning these things about how to be a doctor how to heal ourselves and I'm sorry like it's very difficult now.”

If you come from Venezuela where you've always had to be your own bank..."

Replying to my own dumb post because I am bass-ackwards. I wanted Dan and Josh to see this post on a previous episode of yours. npub1a3hrd4wfawr578d5y5l0qgmh7lx8q6tumfq0h7eymmttt52veexqkcfg37

Dan, I missed you in Minneapolis, I have never been to a meetup and I laughed at your '70% cool and 30% weirdos' comment. The latter is low and the reason I still haven't gone Bitcoin public. (p.s. Humor is almost devoid in the Bitcoin Maxi space so thanks for the laughs, even if it is juvenile humor like "BlackCock", "69", and "Sharting.")
