Great photo
Just over a year ago I bought my local football club in Bedford with a plan to make them the #bitcoin team and get them in the professional leagues, 6 promotions away.
Yesterday we had a massive away win against 2nd placed Rugby Borough and with 11 games to go we are 10 points clear…our first promotion is looking good.

Congrats!
It’s good at locking up a greater percentage of the population than any other country including North Korea and turning our social justice system into a corrupt auction house of legal outcomes. It’s not very good at utilizing resources though it does misincentivizes some of our most intelligent people into circular busy work driving marginal billable hours instead of building anything that provides enduring value to society. Yeah I hate the “justice” system too.
I just got my first bitcoin ordinal. It was a great experience. I listened to the twitter spaces with Udi. I love the bitcoin wizard meme and it was worth it just to honor the artist. I rushed to download a swallow wallet and remember what a potent onboarding experience this all was and how it onboarded me to eth. I like to experiment with all tech, but love bitcoin and think it is far superior. After receiving my wizard. I needed to learn about the bitcoin nft process and growing infrastructure. I think this is all very good for bitcoin. It’s a reminder of unintended consequences, reinforces the importance of conservatism, makes one question latent bugs/exploits in eths code, but most importantly gives bitcoin a small extra innovative engine that can onboard and exponentially create value through innovation. Bitcoin should focus on just being money and these NFT’s should be far secondary, but I think they have a lot of positives. The technicals and longterm incentives could prove me wrong, but you should go through the experience before you do a pod critical of it. Love the pod by the way.
