This is the only tangible, actionable reason to vote, imo

I know many people want me to be “the progressive bitcoiner” guy to reach the left. I keep trying to stick it out, but I have to move on at the end of this year. I’m exhausted.

A huge segment of the left see “Bitcoin” and just aren’t here yet to get it.

I hope with rebooting money they’ll still be able to learn, and that it can even be a bigger thing and platform. I just can’t be “that guy” any more when I don’t believe and am quite repulsed by our current failed political, two party system in the U.S. Bitcoin is a paradigm shift, there’s no pretending it’s not.

Doesn’t mean rebooting money won’t be a place for mainstream, normal audiences! But I hope it can appeal to a wide audience, and not pretend to be steeped in current politics that are so petty and small and a huge distraction compared to what I hope for the future to be.

The studio is ready, Danny's flights are booked, and next week we’ll begin recording episodes for our new podcast.

I wanted to share the reasons behind this shift as many have been asking. Three primary factors influenced this decision:

1. I hate making remote shows—I never want to do them again. These interviews need the intimacy of being in person.

2. Traveling constantly has been detrimental to my health and my family.

3. My commitments here with the football club and local community are growing.

So, the solution was clear: build a studio in the UK and produce the show locally.

We’ve secured a fantastic space in Soho, London, and we’re ready to go but given the limited number of Bitcoin guests available in the UK or those willing to fly in, it’s time to retire What Bitcoin Did.

Our new podcast will be similar in feel but will cover a broader range of topics. While some episodes will focus on Bitcoin (though less frequently), most will explore other interesting topics or people.

Having made nearly 900 episodes covering a wide range of #bitcoin topics and guests, we’re now aiming higher. By diversifying our content and guests, we hope to introduce more people to the concept of sound money through podcast osmosis. If we get this right, it will be a bigger show, if we get it wrong, well we tried.

For a long time I have felt there is a need to get out of the #bitcoin corner of the party. Real Bedford FC was a way of integrating sound money into a traditional business model. CheatCode purposely did not include Bitcoin in the title, so changing the show feels like a natural next step.

Sometimes when stuck in the #bitcoin landscape you can lose site of how other people in the world think, lose empathy for the complexities of the world. I have felt this. I'd come home from spending two weeks with Bitcoiners and be with friends and family locally and notice a distinct difference in how we see the world. As everything feels like it is going to shit, I feel like there is a bigger job to do now.

The Bitcoin podcast landscape is well served, from Marty and Odell to Natalie and Preston, from The Blue Collar guys to Stefan Livera and anyone I haven't mentioned. There’s no shortage of high-quality Bitcoin podcasts.

However, there seems to be some fatigue in the space, with similar guests and topics being revisited. With our new show we want to bring fresh perspectives and ideas, aligning with sound money where relevant—think of the shows we’ve had with the likes of Eric Weinstein and Michael Malice.

On a personal note, I’m need the challenge, test myself wider, get fit and find a good woman. I can't do this travelling all the time.

When I started the podcast my life was a shit show - divorced, coming off drugs, heading towards bankruptcy. I've had an incredible 7 years, travelled the world, made amazing friends and got to live my dream by buying my local football club.

To everyone who has helped us get this far - the guests, the listeners, the sponsors, we could not have done this without you. I am forever in your debt.

I hope you’ll check out the new show and enjoy it, though it may not be for some of you. Regardless, Danny and I will work hard to deliver the best show possible, like we always have.

Roll on The McCormack Show!

lol ok

You sound like a teenager

I have experienced dealing with wicked, deceitful, evil women. They exist.

She took his daughter to Hawaii and I believe him when he says he is paying for her and the car situation.

The red flags on Janet are off the charts.

These women will ruin your life. I sympathize with him.

Bitclout was a huge SCAM. I forgave him for his contribution to bitcoin

My crazy detector is going high mode with Janet

Janet kidnapped his daughter and is hiding in Hawaii. He always paid child support.

Bumbum check has been his girlfriend for a year and he wants to marry her

Of topic, but in one of the first episodes of What Is Money Saylor said (I am loosely quoting him) it is cool that lobsters are kept in cages in the ocean and that those cages are like luxury hotels for them, and that they get a superb deal to be mercifully killed and eaten at a mature age for being protected in a cage from all the natural dangers.

But regardless, Saylor is also a well accomplished prophet of bitcoin and his other sinful thoughts and words do not diminish his accomplishments in spreading the word of bitcoin.

The thing is, you and all of us don't really know. Neither what happened, nor when, nor especially why. Unless, everything on the internet is true, of course 😀.

For me the only thing certain and definitelly not a lie is that Breedlove contributed to my orange-pilling, and his ex-wife and her parents did not and I don't know them at all. So he could have been a demon, could still be - those are things I don't know and don't particularly care because he is just a man on another side of the world. And whatever he did, is doing and will do, will not diminish his achievement in orange pilling me. So, dear gay and lesbian cry-babies, unless he comes to hurt me personally, I am keeping his portrait on my wall.

Can somebody give me the skinny on the Breedlove and Lauren Booty situation and what happened? I’ve been avoiding Twitter lately and don’t really want to go back over there to find out.

Preferably not the long version. I’m capping my dumb-social-media-drama time limit at 20 minutes today. 😆

Dream flow: buy new phone, enter 12 words, done.

Everything's set up, including my config, apps, contacts, etc. The 12 words are my nsec in this case ofc.

good morning nostr, the reason we started ten31 is because suits continue to burn billions of dollars on garbage projects while bitcoin companies often struggle to get funding

Cost of Living Crisis? Move to Mexico or Thailand for a year(s)

I keep seeing posts about cos of living crisis in Europe and US and many places where cost of living has always been high and is getting higher.

Digital Nomad or remote lifestyle means you can move to where the costs are low but keep your high developed world wage.

Consider moving to Mexico, for eg Oaxaca City, or Thailand, Chiang Mai for a year to work remotely in your current job but from a cheaper destination.

Obviously this is a difficult transition to make for many but easier if you are single or couple with no kids.

I can personally recommend Oaxaca City and Chiang Mai as potential spots as they are both very cheap and safe (certain parts of Oaxaca City are not but plenty are near downtown and tourist areas so shop around).

Previously I wrote a post here talking about the cost of living in Chiang mai where one person can easily get by for $750 p/month USD or even less depending on your particular lifestyle. I suspect you could do it for around $500 if you lived in a not so nice place and cooked a fair amount.
