when you see a suit asking the state to kill binance ask them how they are different than SBF

I'm extremely proud to announce that I successfully defended my PhD with highest honors.

Looking back at years of fundamental research in academia, I'm excited about the future. I plan to focus on Bitcoin R&D, the most impactful project my skills can contribute to.

The people who crave control over us have lost. bitcoin + nostr are the final blows.

This week, SBF is going to trial for defrauding investors & retail to the tune of billions.

Meanwhile Ross Ulbricht is still in prison 10 years later for creating an online #Bitcoin  marketplace.

Free Ross.

do you have a tiktok account?

Angry about Armenia. Angry about a lot of things. So many feelings, so little to say.

In the trunk? Are they saying "trunk" or "truck" in that arrest video?

I am here yet again to remind you that the Malthusians in charge are actively trying to transition to solar powered grids while simultaneously trying to convince you to geo-engineer the atmosphere to blot out the sun.

I’m gonna stick with being vegetarian/pescatarian 😂 I don’t mind getting older, it’s a beautiful thing 🙏 can’t wait

The profits (which are about $5/book) from the first 1,000 copies of Broken Money are going to the HRF Bitcoin Development Fund.

I think I will put the profits from copies 2,000-5,000 into making a slick animated YouTube video about the history of money and banking and the emergence of Bitcoin (basically the 30-minute summary of Broken Money). Kind of like Dalio’s “How the Economic Machine Works” video.

A popular 500 page finance book can reach tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people. But an equivalent video, while not as deep, has the potential to reach millions as a different part of the knowledge funnel.

Because, I dunno. Fuck profits I guess. The rest of my business covers profits; the book is for a different purpose.

I’ve been studying the Cairo real estate market both because I’m a buyer and because it’s useful inflation research to witness the process of how quickly/slowly and evenly/unevenly prices adjust to an FX devaluation.

Some real estate in bubbly areas jumps in local nominal price quickly; other areas barely move in price. Egypt doesn’t have a ton of foreign real estate buyers (compared to say, Chinese nationals buying Thai property) so prices tend to be low. There is however a lot of construction supply growth.

Was looking at a new villa today which is four stories and six bedrooms, in order to house a multigenerational family (nine total people). Made of brick and cement at its core and with beautiful finishing. Has an elevator, which is important for the seniors of the family that have trouble with stairs. Nice view, yard, community.

It’s comparable in price to a random house half its size in US suburbia that is made of cheap wood and drywall that will last a third as long. So the price per square foot compared to that is half, and even less if quality-adjusted. Of course, with a much riskier legal and financial jurisdiction.

But then it can be paid for over seven years without interest (you just forgo the cash-up-front discount which is not all that big), in the local currency that doubles in supply every four years (20% annualized broad money growth), so you are basically shorting the currency.
