GM. Bitcoin is energy, measured in joules.

Bitcoin has always been ‘number go up’ because the conservation of energy demands it. Good luck arguing otherwise—fiat is the illusion, not Bitcoin.

If you don’t understand Bitcoin through the lens of physics and energy, you don’t understand it at all. Bitcoin turns 16 tomorrow, and the community is still struggling to define the abstraction of 21M units without a physical anchor. We’re wasting our time.

The infinite rabbit hole only begins to reveal itself once the physics of Bitcoin is defined. The current rabbit hole is nothing more than a shallow box, limiting our potential. To claim mastery or suggest I’ve explored its depths is pure hubris. Ego death is coming for us all—no one, not even the most seasoned Bitcoin Maxis, are immune.

2025 is going to be an exciting year.

Bitcoin fixes physics. Everything changes, including us.

Of course, I agree it was necessary. But now we must remain vigilant in protecting Bitcoin from fiat illusions. It’s critical to remove Bitcoin from its fiat price entirely.

A price measured in joules per satoshi or joules per Bitcoin is grounded, stable, and aligned with reality. With this energy-based framework, the window for fiat speculation closes rapidly—it won’t wait for people to catch up or understand.

Hyperbitcoinization was prophesied, but I have no desire to be the martyr. The truth is coming regardless.

If you haven’t read this yet, I highly recommend it.

Unbelievably prescient book written in the late 90s, while also explaining history in longer cycles of centralization and decentralization.

Read it in 2021 and have been putting it into practice ever since…

Somebody has to

Make people happy

Anyone else feeling the world now as a fiat 💩 show?

I was kind of hoping for a more positive 2025…

A long time competitor closed their doors down the street. This market is only for the best operators.

Arkham Intelligence reports that Bitcoin valued at $793 million was moved from Coinbase Prime Custody wallets linked to MicroStrategy to unidentified wallets.

About the #travelrule in Europe.

A rant to end the year.

Close to no one actually seems to care.

Three years ago, my podcast started because the first proposals for this law were being worked on in the EU Commission.

Since then, only a handful of people have reacted.

The rest just shrugged it off with some nonsense like, "I'll be outside the EU by then," or even worse: "Who cares? Some tech mumbo jumbo will solve it if you run 15 tools and use 15 compiled solutions that only 100 nerds really understand."

This is about our entire Bitcoin space being overrun by middlemen selling lies, bullshit, shitcoin casinos, credit cards backed by venture capitalist garbage, or even worse: untested solutions or toy-grade hardware wallets with buggy software or attached middleman services.

And now our main man, Jack Mallers, whose company rolls over to deliver the EU the Strike honeypot data by implementing the travel rule?

I remember

@Trezor

taking a huge shitstorm online a few years ago for unilaterally implementing the #travelrule, but now... hardly anyone reacts.

Yes, I get it—you can’t expect a bigger company to just ignore the law and continue without repercussions. But the Strike app is no longer an onboarding tool (we saw this coming, of course). Still, try onboarding someone to Bitcoin in Europe after January 1, 2025, and it’s either going to be:

KYC + criminalization + high taxes and a mountain of paperwork,

or

Just tell them, "Don’t bother with Bitcoin. It’s over. We live in the European Union—you should move elsewhere if you want freedom."

The fact that Europeans aren’t even organizing a single protest, a single act of defiance, or any resistance is telling of the sort of total patsies we’ve become. I see no end to this.

We now live in a totalitarian state as of January 1, 2025.

We should either resist or run.

But resistance at this point requires many brave people to stand up, instead of wasting time on Netflix or TikTok.

Unfortunately, for many of us, running is not an option or a desired outcome.

The travel rule is here, and for me personally, it feels like defeat—while the ones I should be fighting alongside in the trenches are rolling over like trained poodles.

Goals. Same as last year, but adding #8 and #9 this year

1. Be a better Christian

2. Be a better Father and Husband

3. Be a better Son

4. Be a better Friend

5. Improve my health so I can be around to achieve 1-4 longer

6. Grow professionally

7. Continue learning and growing

8. Start at least 1 of the 2 new businesses I've had brewing

9. Take more time for myself

Here goes page one

Most Americans and so-called 'free speech' advocates completely cucked to Trump and MAGA over the past few months, only to realise that he was never truly calling the shots in the first place—and never will be.

In my eyes Elon Musk and the tech oligarchs are the real presidents now. Follow the money. Free speech has always been, and always will be, 'free'—but only when it serves their interests.

More bullish on #nostr than ever.

Would anyone please recommend me any GOOD content on parallel economies or societies?

Fiat, while evil will be used for Gods glory.

Want to know how? It’s our testimony.

Genesis 50:20: As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today.

Joseph was sold his brothers into slavery years earlier. God used Joseph’s circumstances to place him in a position of power in Egypt, saving many lives during a severe famine.

Another verse:

Romans 8:28: And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”

Fixing the money won’t “fix the world”.

That’s a distraction from the enemy.

What we need to realize is all negative things of this earth, God will use for his glory.

Our story and testimony and not revolving our lives around money or Bitcoin, but around Gods provision and the grace of Jesus Christ.

Evil will always be in and of this world! THERE IS NO ENDING IT!

Remember Joseph’s story and how the evil of this world and evil used against us can be used to shine a Light on Gods glory.
