My friend just LIKED MY EMAIL!! Is this a new thing? Was I living in a cave for the last years?

Then your keys can be broken at any moment by god

Every time I read the story of #Bitcoin and Hal Finney's initial reactions, I think to myself that I would really have liked to have met this person.

His positivity, open-mindedness, technical know-how, his words of encouragement. He epitomised everything #Bitcoin stands for.

This is the definition of hard money described by Samuel Edward Konkin III in “The Agorist Primer”.

He described bitcoin perfectly in 1986, although at the time he was referring to gold, the description is much better suited to the nature of bitcoin and what is happening.

"Suppose some substance could split its atoms without losing its essence, be more resistant to wear and corrosion than any other, be easily recognized and certified for its purity, and be valued by a lot of people for its usefulness and good looks. Suppose further that it “did better” than any other offered in competition.

Wouldn't most people turn to it to make money? There would be no need for laws, no foundations, no advertising campaigns leading to it. Nature would take care of that. Second, third and fourth choices could be taken into account, but the first would become the standard against which all others are measured."

I just learned that 50-70% of the population doesn’t have an internal monologue.

I honestly can’t really comprehend this.

Wait, you're telling most ppl don't think in their heads?

OK nvm actually that tracks.

proper n-sec rotation could be a "give me yours i'll give you mine"? 🐸

for massive public transport systems with nfc payments-only, it certainly could be a punkish one to do

It could all be so simple

Welcome to the final chapter.

Part 1: #Gold

Part 2: #Fiat

Part 3: #Bitcoin

Assange’s hearing at PACE was majestically humble considering the scale and impact on freedom of information.

He also mentioned cryptography, emerging technologies that could aid freedom of information.

I’d say Nostr has an important place in making freedom of information accessible to all.

What are your thoughts?

#Freedom

How do we make technology more biologically friendly? #asknostr

Sorry, I’ve been pretty bitchy lately from a combination of personal life events, watching the catastrophe of American politics, and listening to everyone’s uninformed and absolutely banal opinions.

How smart OG's have kept their coin:

- Ignore people making price predictions

- Laugh at TA charts

- Every price prediction model will be destroyed

- It's not about getting rich fast, it's about not getting poor slowly (USD dilution inevitability)

- Don't make leveraged bets

- Don't bet against bitcoin

- Self custody, treat your bitcoin like it's worth 100x what you paid as it will be on a long enough timescale

Short story: I sold a company in 2013 - did pretty well. That company has probably since double/tripled its revenues and is easily worth 2-4x what it was when i sold it (probably more as sole ownership has more discretion to shop VC's).

Guess who won? Me. I invested almost 100% of the proceeds i didn't need to live into bitcoin and i'm up way more then 2-3x.

I have since started a new company in 2018 and I only slightly regret the capital outflow required to start (low 6 figs). That 2018 seed money is now probably worth closer to 1mm if i would have invested it into bitcoin. Although i'm slightly glad as my business after 4 years of making zero money is finally able to almost 100% sustain my families lifestyle from business revenues.

Bitcoin has radically transformed my life but only because i maintained a relative low time preference and didn't listen to the bears or bull-tards. And a word to the wise the bull-tards are far more dangerous then the bears. They incentivize degen behavior and make people wreckless in hopes of quick riches. Bears help fortify your convictions and are in for the long haul because they understand how the game works. Bull-tards will pump normies full of ridiculous expectations and then people will rage-quit when expectations fall short because timing short term moves in markets is impossible.

tl;dr gm. 🙃

i thought nostr.band is already it, at least directionaly? tho I think there's a difference, what makes cuntanalysis a company is the "proprietary" data that they attach to it and then put people in prison based on 5years old leadked datbase downloaded from a darknet forum.

in nostr attribution already exits since we're all signing our own notes to prove they are ours. Tho maybe they find all my nyms?? xD
