Self crowning of the bitcoiner.

The movie napoleon is still something that my wife and I will watch at some point. But for me napoleon is a special story.

When I was 13 years old my French teacher in high school told us the story of napoleon in French. She was deeply in love with the man so many years after his death. The passage of the crowning is a moment I will never forget. It was the moment after decades of proof of work where this man challenged every established order.

Lying in bed now, while the baby needed to get something to drink at 3AM I was thinking about time locked multisig key cutting technology and the impact once it’s easily usable for everyone. Once you set up a time locked multisig you crown yourself master of something that cannot be taken from you by force. But over time might end up in the right hands for where you have distributed your keys.

Bitcoin has always been a human project with choices reaching from large multi person setups to 100% self ownership in your head. It is the first time people individually or as a group can plan how they distribute their life energy after they die. It is set in code, on the strongest and largest computer network that humans could build. The real users of bitcoin crown themselves king. This time you can choose that people can’t take it from you by force. And that is a power that never really existed for mankind. Millions of kings have already been forged, they just don’t know or feel it yet. https://video.nostr.build/a2b87a723441881bd736822648fed166cc20bb6799e1ab3bb043972eebda769f.mp4
