This applies to individuals companies and countries alike!

If liberty is worth more than life, doesn’t it demand greater responsibility? Dying for freedom is noble, but living for it; expanding liberty for others even at your expense where we need to be focusing.

What does fighting for liberty look like for you?

Don’t wanna be injecting my opinion in this post, I just want to hear what do you have to say.

Is Bitcoin the peak of materialism or is it the wholy rejection of the concept?

Thoughts?

#Freedom is something we were born with. Still, freedom can be taken from us or handed over.

This has been the third Bitcoin meetup I've organised! There is nothing better than being part of a grass root movement you believe in!!

We talked about Real Estate and Bitcoin. Great people, fun times!

Till the next one!!!

Centralisation isn’t inherently bad. History has always been a dance between centralisation and decentralisation—that’s just how it works.

The leading civilisations of every era have usually managed to offer more freedom than their rivals while still maintaining enough control to get things done competitively. That balance is what lets them harness the energy of their people, turning it into something much bigger, like winning trade wars or wars. Think of ancient Athens, the Roman Empire, or the United States. At their peak, they struck that sweet spot: enough freedom to spark innovation and loyalty, but enough control to organise society and achieve massive outputs.

But here’s the problem—they all eventually lose that balance. Over time, centralisation stops being precise and starts becoming arbitrary. Corruption creeps in, and the freedom and decentralisation that made them strong in the first place erodes.

Athens fell apart because of internal conflict—the Peloponnesian War and the rise of oligarchies tore it down. Rome shifted from a republic to an empire, drowning in autocracy and corruption while its citizens lost their freedoms. And now, the U.S. is heading down a similar path, with growing federal centralisation, inefficiency, and corruption threatening the decentralised foundations that made it successful.

The real winners have always been societies that find a way to balance decentralised governance and personal freedom, while being led by an intellectual ruling class that the people actually trust and obey.

That’s the formula that works.

Constraints Drive Innovation—And That’s Why Bitcoin Thrives

Limits spark creativity. It’s a simple truth: when we’re forced to work within constraints, we innovate. Bitcoin’s design is built on this principle, and it’s what keeps the network secure, decentralized, and constantly evolving.

Take *block size*, for example. The limited space in each block pushes developers to find smarter solutions, like SegWit and the Lightning Network, to make transactions more efficient. Without this constraint, we wouldn’t have the same drive to optimize, and Bitcoin would be bloated and less decentralized.

Or look at *OP_RETURN*, which allows us to embed data in transactions. The limited space forces us to get creative, encoding metadata compactly to enable things like NFTs and timestamping without overwhelming the blockchain. If there were no limits, the network would be flooded with unnecessary data, making it harder for people to run nodes and keep Bitcoin decentralized.

And then there’s *mining difficulty*. The constant adjustment ensures blocks are found every 10 minutes, no matter how much hashing power is in play. This competition pushes miners to innovate with better hardware and energy solutions, keeping the network secure and decentralized. Without this constraint, mining would stagnate, and the network would be weaker for it.

And let’s not forget Bitcoin’s ultimate constraint: *its fixed supply of 21 million coins*. This hard cap is the foundation of its value. Unlike fiat currencies that can be printed endlessly, Bitcoin’s scarcity forces us to rethink how we store and transfer wealth. It drives innovation in how we use money—whether it’s through layer-2 solutions like Lightning, or new financial tools built on Bitcoin. The fixed supply also incentivizes long-term thinking and saving, creating a system where value grows over time instead of being eroded by inflation. Without this constraint, Bitcoin would just be another currency, not the revolutionary form of money it is today.

Bitcoin’s constraints aren’t flaws—they’re features. They force us to think smarter, build better, and innovate constantly. That’s why Bitcoin continues to thrive.

If you believe in the power of innovation through limits, share this and let’s keep the conversation going. Bitcoin’s future depends on people who understand why its design matters.

Any tother constraints Bitcoin has that I missed?

Whatever we retroactively agree it is when everything goes down.

When you think about Bitcoin as the foundation of the monetary system, it’s really about the start of a new, emerging global system of governance and government.

Do you understand?

Instagram’s algorithm isn’t just watching, it’s dissecting you. Here’s the breakdown of how it decides what you see, based on patents and patterns (Meta won’t admit all of this, but the evidence and ability is there):

What It Tracks:

- Every tap: Likes, comments, shares, saves—even how long you stare at a post or Reel. Skip something? It logs that too.

- Content DNA: Captions, hashtags, sounds, and even objects in photos/videos (AI scans visuals).

- Your habits: Who you follow, what you search, when you’re active, and whether you binge Reels or scroll Stories.

- It has the ability to analyse when and to what you zoom in, any selected text or click patterns, any searches you make, or whether you raise the phone's volume, any idle time, revisits of posts/ accounts, app hopping/ closing (and what type of content were you watching before closing the app), facial expressions, ad engagement, your interaction with your network, your geological data, when (in the day or month) do you watch the most with the app and the type of content you tend to watch at different times, and even background noises, or even lighting.

What It Builds

- Behavioral blueprint: Predicts your triggers (e.g., fitness content at 6 AM, memes at midnight).

- Echo chamber map: Feeds you more of what you engage with, burying opposing views. Or, if you are responsive to controversy, bury you in it.

What It Hides

- Anything that it discerns it might take tou off the app.

- Low-quality posts, but *only if* they’re not viral enough to bypass filters.

The Creepy Part

It cross-references data with your network (what friends like) and location. Even your internet speed might tweak what you see.

Bottom line: You’re not just a user—you’re a behavioral dataset. And the algorithm’s #1 goal? Keep you scrolling.

#InstagramAlgorithm #AI #YoureTheProduct #nostr #plebchain #privacy #Bitcoin

Instagram qnd other centralised soxial media platforms, don’t just track surface-level interactions like likes or comments. Through their patented technologies, they construct a detailed behavioral profile by analyzing every aspect of your activity—what you watch, how long you watch, what you skip, and who you engage with. They even track the themes or visual styles that capture your attention. This results in a digital representation of you, designed to predict and serve content that keeps you engaged, creating an echo chamber tailored to your habits. You’re not merely scrolling; you’re being observed and influenced.

Nostr, on the other hand, offers a fundamentally different approach to social media. Built on a decentralized protocol, it eliminates algorithms, behavioral tracking, and echo chambers. Instead, it empowers users with full control over their data and content.

While individual clients on Nostr could introduce algorithms, the decentralized nature ensures you’re free to choose alternatives without interference or manipulation.

It’s a platform where your digital experience is determined by you, not by hidden systems or middlemen.

Fiat's demise always over joys me!

Arbitrary number go-ups celebrations are for normies

Governments are the greatest marketers for Bitcoin.

Not enough for your demeaning question

No such thing as an anonymous Internet user, it's just marketing.

There is only high and low levels pseudonymity.

Bitcoin is all about #grass root adoption and initiatives. I am glad to have contributed to that through organising a local #Bitcoin #meetup in Limassol.

Made a presentation named "Why Bitcoin" where I shared my views as to how Bitcoin benefits th Environment, the Economy, Society and as a conclusion the Individual.

Can't wait for the next one!⚡

Can't argue with that👨‍⚖

Zapping ≠ satting, might bw confusing.

The first mover advantage sats have make it better for sure. Other than that, oshis seem more practical imo.
