The iPhone is nice, but it’s not a game changer, like landing rockets or self driving cars.

The technology of Tesla’s AI will change the world extremely radically over the next decades. More radical than the internet, almost as radical as Bitcoin.

At least that’s my opinion.

Agreed. Fuck Elon. The bloom is certainly off the rose.

He is a genius marketer but he also has an ability (or his teams) to miraculously deliver and save himself of his lies. I remember 2018/2019 and Tesla on the verge of running out of cash, the production nightmares etc. He lied, as you said, repeatedly, with taking private 420, with robotaxis everywhere in 2 years thanks to fully autonomous vehicle he knew were impossible, he raised money on those lies, and was successful at solving the issues (probably thanks to the money he raised on those lies)

Musk is certainly selling narratives and lies but he is also, certainly also quite good at getting things done. There is an issue with regulator and justice punishing only the liars who fail. Basically, if Elizabeth Holmes had in the end found a business model for Theranos, the fake tests would have been forgotten. As long as you don’t punish liars who succeed, despite their success, you will continue seeing Holmes, Maddoffes, Bankman-Fried the guy from Fyre Festival etc. This fake it till you make it ethos is a bad one

Yep, but I understand the other sentiment.

Hello Frens,

I have finally finished my book:

Cryptosovereignty: The Encrypted Political Philosophy of Bitcoin

I wanted to share some preliminary digital copies with those that would be willing to share some feedback (4 to 6 sentence blurb).

I must warn before hand that it’s quite esoteric and is a gathering of my previously published works modified to fit into a larger metaphysical presentation.

Cryptosovereignty I hope will be a foundational work to my larger metaphysical approach to Bitcoin, which I think I will call the general theory of Bitcoin, but we will see.

I also want to do a limited podcast series coving each chapter of the book with someone who has read a specific chapter and we will have a long discussion dissecting and unpacking it (there is a lot of that to be done).

If you have any interest in reading it, providing feedback, or even in doing a pod w/ me in the future around a specific chapter, please let me know. Just shoot me a DM with a good email I can send you a PDF.

Thank you all for your support, and I hope this book will help further facilitate deep thinking about Bitcoin.

practicing what we preach 😌🌄

What a masterpiece. Loved every second of reading. Is Knut already on Nostr? If you haven’t, be sure to read this book!

In post-hyperbitcoinization will we realize

how deflationary the economy was due to technological progress

how cheap living is, needing only a few hours of work per week

if it wasn't for government fiat that sucked everybody dry

Spider senses tingling hard..

Everyone on here seems pretty happy for a Monday
