My wife has been a libertarian from before we ever met. We just watched the Milei interview together. She was very moved to see someone who is running for President of Argentina articulate these important ideas so clearly (as if explaining it to a child) and sincerely.

She especially appreciated the part where he explained how the Social Justice ideology violates equality before the law — which highlights the irony that in order to achieve its faux social equality it destroys actual judicial equality.

I was really looking forward to speaking at and attending the Miami Bitcoin conference. I had a lot of great events lined up, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to attend anymore.

I was excited to announce ack.vc and start telling folks what #[0]​ and I are up to with ACK Capital (accepting LPs who are interested in getting exposure to early stage bitcoin, Nostr & p2p web/bitcoin adjacent startups.)

However, my mother-in-law was just diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia out of nowhere and she is starting chemotherapy tomorrow.

Everyone’s holding up good so far, but my heart is telling me to stay home.

So I’m going to have to forego the event and make sure I’m there to support my wife & daughter though this emotional time.

If anyone has any suggestions of podcasts or books I can go through to help my wife and daughter process the roller coaster of blood cancer, I’d appreciate some resources that helped you.

I’ll be attending the Canadian Bitcoin Conference coming up next month, and if you’re looking for funding for your startup, feel free to reach out to myself or NVK!

Really really really disappointed to see noncustodial services feel pressure to adopt lnurl/lnaddress receive.

It allows the wallet vendor to steal funds, which is obviously pseudo-custodial, and, worse, means we can’t get privacy from blinded paths, you’re still seeing everything.

This is what happens when we don’t carefully consider the technology we’re making a defacto standard. Don’t break bitcoin, please.

The bird app is fucked.

Freedom Money ep that drops tomorrow is with Uyghur activist Jewher Ilham. Toughest interview I have ever done. What the CCP are doing to her people is truly tragic.

I don't remember, but Nostr is a new place.
