A lot of people talking about nostr:npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5m. Want to give my perspective. Sure, I'm wrong...

Listening to him talk he's trying to grab as much #Bitcoin as possible. Development to the average user is not something he cares about. Slow development means more #Bitcoin to someone in his position with the ability for mass fiat influence such as stock.

He can afford more than most so change to the world isn't something he has to rush. That's wicked low-time preference.

Not saying it makes him good or bad. Just seems like his position compared to someone like me who would love it if we all dropped fiat tomorrow and we're using #Bitcoin in our day to day lives even if that meant it's harder to stack.

Hey Dan, I’m guessing you are middle class, first world, please correct me if I’m wrong. I’m guessing this because a fast monetisation would benefit you more than just about anyone else on the planet.

Fast is bloody. Slow is less bloody and allows for a more even dispersion. I pray for my sake, the sake of my kids, the sake of the hungry little African kids that Bitcoin monetises very slowly… 3 generations is the Chinese saying on change, 60yrs.

This is a one time chance for better economic dispersion and it is an amazing opportunity to take back some of humanity’s blood sweat and tears from the looters and the moochers but especially from the looters.

On nostr:npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5m it’s disappointing to see the legend status Bitcoiners are giving him, the Madeira chant makes me want to puke 🤮!

Quite frankly I expect better from Bitcoiners.

On the other hand, I wouldn’t want to deny Saylor is a very intelligent guy and has done a huge amount for BTC adoption. I credit him with orange pilling me and will be forever grateful. He deserves plenty of acknowledgment for how he thinks, his conviction and for what he has done and achieved by literally putting his money where his mouth is. Full credit due. But let’s stop the god like chanting bullshit.

Like your articulation. Thanks for responding.

Can't get 'Fast is bloody' out of my mind.

I grew up middle class, but am definitely not now that I am adult. I'm lower class (in a first world country as you pointed to) who has severe epilepsy.

You make a lot of great points. I definitely do not worship this guy or any other human. I'll bow to God, but not a man.

I'm not in a rush, but having used it to purchase and sell items and services I can't help, but be excited about using it more.

Fair enough Dan, we are all excited. But we’ve got a fairly ruthless legacy system who are not going to let go quickly without a fight. The faster BTC monetises the bloodier they will make that fight. Stealth 🥷 is the smartest way.

Epilepsy… sorry to ask, I’m not a doctor, but I just want to ask in case it hasn’t come into your radar yet. Have you tried eating keto or carnivore? It occurs to me that much of the brain misfiring we are suffering in our modern world is potentially linked to chronic inflammation. Eating keto or better yet, nose to tail carnivore, massively reduces inflammation. If you haven’t tried it yet, it might be worth giving it a go for as little as 2 weeks (must be 💯 strict to work - unlimited qty, extremely limited selection… carnivore = unprocessed meat, fish and eggs, no sausages) and just see what happens.

Fiat is a fight, but I don't see Bitcoin as a fight. I think of it as healing. Light revealing what's hidden. I believe I understand what you mean by saying the faster BTC monetizes the bloodier fiat will make that fiat. A smooth and steady transition/transformation is best. Just like how a ship shouldn't fight the waters it is traveling in, but keep steady with them.

I have been doing a keto/protein style of dieting more and more so over the past few years. Limit my sugar intake to mostly fruits. Protein heavy is what is best for the brain. 🧠 🍖 🥩

Totally agree with BTC being the light not the fight.

Re the health stuff, it’s great you are leaning that way. My personal experience is you may not get the full benefits of keto unless you are around 20grams of carbs per day or less. That’s like a very small handful of berries and some leafy greens. You might also find high fat (animal and avocado/coconut fats) moderate protein has more positive benefits than high protein. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my protein but I did read somewhere that too much protein can be converted to glucose in your body which will push you out of ketosis.
