Take delight in things for themselves without reference to yourself… The chain of memory is resurrection.

For the #Bitcoin Plebs…

The etymology of “Tax” is interesting.

Traces to the Indo-European root “tag” meaning: to touch, handle," with figurative extensions ("border on; taste, partake of; strike, hit; affect, impress; trick, cheat; mention, speak of")

I think you catch my drift… the day isn’t actually 24 hours either… just an approximation, like so many things, but it’s still a pretty damn good proxy.

The cycles of the moon are fairly constant and predictable.

High tide and low tide are predictable. Sunset and sunrise are predictable.

Maybe the rising and falling tides are like the rising and falling difficulty in #Bitcoin.

A foot is 12 inches. A day is 24 hours. Earth’s Gravity is constant.

Basic rules of games ossify over time.

Hold the rules of the #Bitcoin game as constant as possible.

Increase user understanding of #Bitcoin  as sound money & develop player skills to match this understanding.

Until a critical mass of people stop hyper-obsessing over the Dollar price of #Bitcoin, then we’re all still shitcoiners in a way.

The Dollar price of #Bitcoin is an Oxymoron and a Shitcoin.

Good morning.

The ethical codes that we combine with #Bitcoin matter.

The business practices that we combine with #Bitcoin matter.

The opportunity costs that we discover with #Bitcoin matter.

Do your best not to distort or disturb the price signals that #Bitcoin is fermenting for us.

Maybe there’s an order of operations to this, but it seems best to build on top of a Sound Money use case FIRST. Then, maybe in 10, 20, or 150 years, the programmability aspect of #Bitcoin can be experimented with, but first things first.

#Bitcoin is chess not checkers.

If America didn’t abandon honest & objectively measurable Sound Money, then the Economists/Accountants would not have been fooled by the Fugazi Fiat Price Signals that suggested labor was “cheaper” overseas.

Study #Bitcoin.

Unlearn the Fiat conditioning.

Fiat price of #Bitcoin  is an oxymoron.

Build enough conviction in #Bitcoin in enough people, and it will transcend the Fiat price and flourish no matter what the Fiat Dum Dums say.

Using #Bitcoin for its highest and best use, like other technologies, requires practice, patience, homework, diligence, and using the technology for the specific problem it was designed to solve.

This problem could be described as the Degenerate Fiat Clown World Problem.

Some thoughts:

#Bitcoin doesn’t need Ordinals.

Ordinals needs retards.

Hear me out.

What if Satoshi invented #Bitcoin with the underlying assumption that users wouldn’t use the tech like complete morons & instead would use the tech for its highest and best use to empower humanity & engender peace & prosperity?

Crazy I thought I know.

1 There is a time for everything,

and a season for every activity under the heavens:

2 a time to be born and a time to die,

a time to plant and a time to uproot,

3 a time to kill and a time to heal,

a time to tear down and a time to build,

4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,

a time to mourn and a time to dance,

5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,

a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

6 a time to search and a time to give up,

a time to keep and a time to throw away,

7 a time to tear and a time to mend,

a time to be silent and a time to speak,

8 a time to love and a time to hate,

a time for war and a time for peace.

9 What do workers gain from their toil? 10 I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet[a] no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. 13 That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God.

The Time for #Bitcoin and honest money has come.

Humans will always have to trust other humans to fulfill their end of the contract. #Bitcoin doesn’t change this. It just changes the money, so trust can flow more efficiently between humans.

#Bitcoin scales trust. Not speed.

Buy the rip

Buy the dip

Buy the #Bitcoin

Abandon ship

Buy it early

Buy it late

Buy the #Bitcoin

You'll feel great

A Patient Ferment

Slowly bubbles

Buy the #Bitcoin

Solve your troubles

Self-fulfilling prophesies cut both ways. Be careful of the self-fulfilling prophesies you channel your energy into.

For example, Harari's Sapiens lays the groundwork for a Dystopian Self-Fulfilling Prophesy.

#Bitcoin lays the groundwork for a Utopian Self-Fulfilling Prophesy.

The Rhyme of the Ancient Banker

Heads I win.

Tails you lose.

It’s much more fun

When you’re in on the ruse.

QE for me,

And QT for thee,

And if all else fails,

QE Infinity.

Let them eat cake

And have it too.

I have had my fill.

How about you?

Got #Bitcoin?

Sooo when Nayib Bukele locks up violent criminals, it’s a human rights catastrophe.

But when the San Francisco Govt herds the homeless off the streets in advance of Xi, it’s a celebration?

🤡🤣

Ignore the Clown Show.

Study #Bitcoin my friends.

Did Rockefeller not only spread the lie of artificial scarcity of hydrocarbons but also get The Fed created so that there was always a lender of last resort to kick start demand for Oil?

Food for thought.

#Bitcoin  is Communo-Fascist Resistant Money

Churches, States, & #Bitcoin are different kinds of economic resource allocators for the “greater good”

Churches persuade people to give resources voluntarily

States persuade people to give resources under threat of force

#Bitcoin persuades people to give resources voluntarily

Intrinsic value of an asset is its value as calculated with regard to an inherent, objective measure. (Wikipedia)

#Bitcoin Difficulty (a proxy for value) is calculated with regard to inherent objective measures:
