A long time Bitcoin Standard bearer actively training myself and my peers (so I have some), in the battle over ownership of our data, our money, and our communication channels in the war between decentralized free individuals and the centralized tyranny of the crowd.

AI is simply a tool that let's us leverage our productivity. Now I don't have to learn how to become a graphic artist, videographer, editor, etc. I can simply focus on producing value by using these tools. I'm a writer, not a visual artist, so I can now engineer prompts that produce unique graphics and videos without having to be concerned about other's intellectual property, or being limited by stock graphics available in the "commons".

Those who resist making use of the state-of -the-art solutions will simply get left behind. As this applies to those not embracing the Bitcoin, Lightning Network, and Nostr protocols, so it will to AI. Myself, I'm a building, I'll use whatever tools work and drop any that don't as soon as they cease to function. I don't judge a knife or fire because the can destroy life, I simply respect the risks and use them to protect and cultivate Life. Same with AI, Luddites will soon be left in the stone ages, I prefer a Jetson's lifestyle to that of the Flintstones, and care not who joins this evolution, or when they do so.

Here's why the Nostr and Lightning Network protocols will inevitably win the day...

Without permission from anyone, I used two free AI tools (Chatgpt & https://beta.elevenlabs.io/sign-up) to take the content off the www.Voltage.Cloud website. Then I rewrote a bullet point list of the Cons of running your own DIY node and the Pros of using the Voltage node service, using that script and plugged it into a text-to-speech AI solution from 11 Labs to create an audio file of it. Then I used another free solution, the Headliner App (https://make.headliner.app/create) to turn that audio file I could post on Twitter and am sharing on here now.

Soon, I'll be upgrading to create custom voices and AI videos with multiple Avatars to present my educational materials that I created a #BTCcrowdfunding page here:

I was able to set up a LN tip bot awhile ago as a paywall for people to access posts and live feeds in Telegram groups. Trying to figure out how to do that again. #[8] maybe you can get your new Lightning Tip bot to enable that functionality again...

I still haven't been able to get out my sats out of the other bot since control of that Bot was lost due to email account issues. Not your tip Bot, not your sats... Also, not your email provider, not your account, #Nostrfixesthis IF we backup our nsec!

I'm currently creating a Nostr and Telgram integrated learning management system for a Nostr Hackathon I'm participating in, with my first training module:

"Bitcoinizing Your Podcast: How to Monetize Your Content, Turning Your Fans into Patrons By Using the LNMPowerMint League's Integrated SatStreaming Tool Set!".

This first module is designed as one of many intended to empower musicians and music venues by on boarding them, their technicians, and their audiences with the earning capabilities that the LN V4V and satstreaming tech stack is bringing all digital content creators. One of which is Wavlake, a powerful empowerment tool on its own, made more so when combined with a musical podcast RSS feed.

For those of you that may be interested here's the current version of my start up's elevator pitch.

"At LNMPowerMint, we believe in empowering digital content creators to take control of their artistic careers. Our training program is designed to teach you how to use the 100s of satstreaming tools we've curated since writing the Tao of Bitcoin Banking in 2018. By turning your fans into direct patrons of your art, you can capture the power of Bitcoin for yourself and take control of your financial future."

I believe that music is the best medium we can use to orange pill the masses of no-coiners, trojan horsing LN sats into their wallets by using your music as bait. Helping you all stack more sats along the way as we ALL do our part to help initiate hyperbitcoinization sooner than later.

As I beta test this curriculum I'm making it available for free to the first movers who reach out me directly, requesting access and providing me with private criticism and public testimonials. This first module will be ready for your feedback soon. Just reach out to me in my DMs, either here, or on Telegram t.me/ov1_kenobi

I'm gonna be leading a few people through this curriculum over the next few days to record some training materials and help refine my message. Let me know if you'd like to join this conversation.

Here's an outline of the dozen or so tools I'm tactically integrating:

-Voltage Cloud Node

-LN Bits Instance thru Voltage

-Podcast Index/wallet

-Telegram SatoshisStream Bot/Lightning Tip Bot

-Zeus Wallet

-@npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5

I just created a Geyser Fund project to help me pay for some help getting the Nostr and AI programming done that I need to in order to do this properly. Here's the link, https://geyser.fund/project/nostrlms

But sending Zaps works too, as someone already has!

Once I found an article stating that the ETH pre-mine had gone to only 100 wallets, sure wish I could locate that again. I wonder if that is accurate...?

I bet the CBDC pre-mine doesn't go to even that many members of the fiat Cantillon.

#[2] You will love this song and video. I seriously suggest closing out your Dirty Coin documentary with a few songs like this one and the one I've been working on. Humans learn from story AND song!

I'm having trouble following you here using Iris myself...

This aligns perfectly with a realization I had awhile ago, Bitcoin is NOT a "0 to 1" moment. It is a "1 to 0" moment, the culmination of humanity's discovery of the number zero that enabled all of our computers, software, mathematics, and encryption we've built on top of the discovery of the power of "No-thing-ness".

This is beautifully done. I'm seeing that you used Nostr.build to create this clip.

Can you share any resources that I and others can use to do this as well?

I can likely figure it out, but having resources to direct others to will be helpful.

Just as it is mostly irrelevant to people How their electricity is generated, transmitted, and stored, What electricity IS, and they don't need to be told Why electricity is useful, so it is with Bitcoin. The Bitcoiners around the world that need uncensorable, open, and borderless money that settles almost immediately, around the clock, without %-based transaction fees, do NOT need "Why" Bitcoin explained to them.

What is needed though, and almost entirely lacking, is more than just how to safely store bitcoin, Bitcoin businesses and the patrons of these establishments NEED to understand How to USE bitcoin, How to EARN bitcoin, and How to SPEND their hard earned sats to provide for their daily basic needs. For true Bitcoiners, every expenditure is sats foregone, this incentives efficiency in our daily lives in every way; my chickens here in Hawaii are earning me sats equal to almost $1 USD per egg they lay, my home bio-gas generator is saving ~$50 per tank of propane not used, every trip not made into town is saving ~$.30 per mile driven in my truck. ALL of these become more sats stacked into my wallets.

One of the only ways to improve the quality of my life in paradise once my off grid estate has been secured, my food grown, and prepared by my beautiful Queen, is having a beautiful soundtrack to decorate our time together as we celebrate Life together in paradise. This makes showing my gratitude with some of my hard earned LN sats by parting with them in direct patronage of the musicians who's art we enjoy. This will set these Musicians free to create more great art for us to enjoy as they #LearnHow2Earn their daily sats, becoming thriving artists no longer starved out by the existing predatory sandboxed systems.

My bad, I mistyped. The resource I was suggesting is actually at https://nosta.me/

When filling in their Nostr account info you can input the LN address the WoS assigns them. I assume you already know to use www.nostr.build to create their account profile pic and something like www.bitcoiner.chat to create their Nostrich ID.

My Nostr Hack entry is allowing me to program an NFC card that I've created for them that includes a #[4] account and an #[5] account, as well as a #[6] account to hand them a Nostr ID card that integrates all of these into a single Nostr account you've created for them. Letting them begin to earn LN sats not only through Zaps, but also from listening to podcasts on Fountain and receiving texts on Vida, that they can then spend online through Alby, all in addition to the Zaps through the WoS, also receiving LN tips through their WoS issued LN Address.

Does this all make sense to you?

Can you see how powerful this might become when we begin to issue these to all attendees at live events like conferences, meetups, and live concerts...?

I explain some of this in more detail in this Bolt Fun story found here:

https://makers.bolt.fun/story/introducing-stream-cards--678

I have one, based on a true story.

My former handyman, turned software developer, friend from Austin, had left TX to live out of his dune buggy in MX. (he actually did this, not making this part up). While living/working/traveling out of his vehicle he got stopped by some "narco" cops.

When searching his vehicle, they knew to look for, recognized, and seized his Trezor hardware wallet. They also knew to look for his notebook with the recovery phrase and password in it. Finding both, they seized both, and sent him on his way.

Problem was, my friend hadn't consulted me, didn't know about Border Wallet, and had left the satoshis tagged with his identity after making KYC'd purchases. He had decided on his own to write down only 23 of the 24 word recovery passphrase, so the uniformed thugs didn't get his bitcoin, but he'd not written them down anywhere else either. So his satoshi stacked for retirement got burned and now he has to explain to the IRS how he no longer has those private keys because they "were stolen in MX", where he couldn't file a police report on the theft because it was the cops who stole it!

This could become a funny, entertaining, educational cautionary teaching tale if handled properly. Seems like only a few scenes would be necessary, could be set in PR just as easily as MX too.

I get a laugh thinking of the bald, bearded, Austin hippie in the dune buggy getting pulled over and instead of weed, its his bitcoin that gets confiscated...

Ok, as part of my delivering value up front, here's an off the top of my head list of steps that all #satstreaming Creators would be wise to go through. Enjoy, and please do make suggestions as to things to add, or remove.

Mining rigs proof of work is verifiable through measurements of the heat generated when performing the calculations. This calorie expenditure leaves a permanent trail of breadcrumbs that any and all who care to follow can verify for themselves. This is why we no longer have to trust that counterfeiters can fake the work "done". Also exactly why proof of stake is an oxymoron, there is no real world authenticatible proof.

So I wrote a thing... Outlining the journey no-coiners will have to take to operate natively in the realm of bitcoin. This was the first time I've used the phrase #satoshiseas, I like it and will keep using it.

https://livingry-services.ghost.io/sailing-the-satoshi-seas-on-a-personal-and-professional-bitcoin-standard/

I sure do love all the latest and greatest tools for bitcoiners that have come out over the last year or two. I'm so grateful to all the developers helping realize the potential Satoshi released on the world.

In this post I got to include Emeralize's new LN paywalled educational site, where I've curated ~28 satstreaming tools, with the Ghost blogging platform I'm just now testing out. This post I kept free though, as I sense that Gigi is correct that only bad content will stay behind paywalls, so I'm just requesting donations to my Alby LN address,. But in my other posts I've been experimenting with what Scribsats is making possible for paywalling content as well. I like how these small LN paywalls become a sort of screening device to keep no-coiners out of the room.

I hope you all find this useful and welcome feedback on the ideas I share about living on a personal and professional #bitcoinstandard.

Idea: Bitcoin Story Hour (& workshop)

Nostr Story Hour (& workshop)

In our current cultural landscape, it’s important to redirect cultural momentum from current cultural phenomena and redirect it for the betterment of all. I think everyone knows what I am saying here if you read this far. The name of this event will be attention grabbing just because of the current cultural energy behind the term “Story Hour”.

I was thinking about how we could do something positive and spread the culture. I came up with the idea that we could do events at our local public libraries where we read educational materials about Bitcoin and other important decentralized technologies that are written for children and teens.

How this will help?

Will promote more literature in the space.

Will help build networks with other local parents.

Will be a beacon of positivity for all.

Often Bitcoin meetups are at bars and we are missing opportunities to teach the next generation.

Sovereignty-minded mothers and fathers could be the best face for propagating the next phase of adoption.

Does anyone have suggestions for books?

Do you have any ideas to write books for this kind of event?

Any good ideas for projects a workshop after the readings?

Would be great to have a book that has explains Bitcoin to kids and has projects that reinforce key principles of proper bitcoin usage.

Who are the big “Bitcoin educators” that focus on younger demographics?

Would be awesome to have a “The Bitcoin Standard for Kids” and “The Bitcoin Standard for Teens” style books.

Please let me know if this idea speaks to you.

Working on creating some of this myself. Here's a piece of educational fiction I created as a "teaching tale" I'm now expanding into a book. I managed to bring the reading level on this piece down to a 9th grade, not easy to do with this subject matter. Unfortunately, over half the US population don't even read at an 8th grade level, but I figure they can stretch themselves a little bit and let Bitcoin change them in that way too.

Here's the link to what is now the 1st chapter of the book I'm writing.
