Better article (not using Infowars)

Essentially Breton is stating that EU's Digital Sources Act is a tool to "clamp down" on "illegal information" online. The DSA was used as the basis to annul the election by by a top Romanian court.

Here is the important part:

WHO DEFINES WHAT IS "ILLEGAL CONTENT". Hint, the poeple who want to control elections control the definitions of what can be said and what cant.

Canada is in a challenging situation. Many Canadian provinces are extremely isolated and gradually declining. Several generations in small towns have not had children, and those who did often saw their kids move to major cities. The government has been addressing population decline by encouraging mass immigration, but the majority of immigrants settle in the major cities. Canada only has about five major cities, leaving the rest of the country dotted with small towns.

Young Canadians in these small towns often lack financial resources, while new immigrants also struggle financially. Meanwhile, the older generation, who typically have more money, are moving out of big cities into smaller towns due to lower living costs. However, being retired, they are not interested in starting businesses.

This creates a unique opportunity for those with the resources to start a business in a small town. The older generation has disposable income and often seeks social interaction, particularly at places like restaurants. A well-positioned entrepreneur could capitalize on this demand, especially in towns with little to no competition.

Economically, we may be nearing a "crossover point" where individuals reliant on fiat systems can no longer access loans, while Bitcoiners, having saved in a harder asset, begin to hold significant economic power. This "crossover point" represents the moment when Bitcoiners’ economic influence surpasses that of fiat-dependent individuals and businesses, marking a transition in economic dominance.

For aspiring entrepreneurs, this could be an ideal time to start a business. Small-town real estate is affordable, reducing the financial risk and allowing room for learning and mistakes without the fear of bankruptcy.

You're right. Customers will likely seek fresher options, and I should added this to my personal goal of mastering fresher, higher-quality pizza—offering a service that caters to unmet demand while honing my skills over time.

I suspect many Bitcoiners are thinking of capitalizing on this "crossover" point as we get close to it.

You make some interest points. "Developed Nations" across the globe are facing declining birth rates. There are a multitude of factors, none of which include natural biological decline. To your point -- it's the difference between those who "have" and those who "have not". These days reproduction is seen as a financial risk / burden.

Without knowing the percentage of population that owns liquid cryptocurrency to be used as disposable income is questionable. Cryptocurrency is a speculative asset as a whole, but the inherent value remains strong specially tied to instutional investments. Which is to say that I believe the majority of cryptocurrency owners would rather hold onto their crypto with anticipation it will increase in value relative to fiat versus spend it on a slice of pizza.

A different idea with the parameters of cryptocurrency: a currency exchange. Imagine you partner with a "Cash for Gold" store and give the opportunity for💯

A) Customers to get an easy entry point into crypto, especially an aging population

B) An opportunity to sell physical assets at one store to use next door at your store.. an aging population may not have disposable income, but im betting they have physical assets that can be sold into an investment

C) Better margins and not dealing with non-durable inventory.

I don't want to dissuade you, but rather "food" for thought.

I will take back my comment about customers not traveling for a "Bitcoin Experience". Additionally, I am not too familiar with Canada. I can only go by the google maps view and from my point of view (coming from a densely populated state) is that the location seems empty.

Additionally, will your competition be selling frozen pizza slices or will they have fresh pizza? Typical pizza restaurants operate on a 15% margin.. maybe you fair better with lower cost frozen pizza, but I think customers will gravitate towards fresher options.

looks interesting. thanks for the suggestion.

What do you all think about my Bitcoin pizza business idea? I could potentially become a millionaire in 3 years!

Saskatchewan, Canada has lots of old, crummy buildings for under $34,000 USD. I could buy one of these buildings and start a Bitcoin-themed pizza business.

Here’s my business plan:

Most customers tend to buy 2 slices of pizza and 1 pop. I’d sell a combo of 2 slices and 1 pop for $8 USD.

To make $1,000,000 in revenue, I’d need to sell 125,000 combos.

Spread over 3 years (1,095 days), I’d need to sell approximately 114 combos per day to hit my goal.

The trick? Instead of making pizza from scratch, I’d re-sell frozen pizza slices. It’s less work and ensures consistency.

Alternatively, I’m considering selling frozen, pre-made smoothies instead of pizza—they might be an even easier option because I worked at a pizza shop once as a kid and it was always hot, exhausting my clothes smelled & made my car smell too after work. I didn't last long because and quit because I decided the pay wasn't high enough for the amount of work they wanted from me.

Thanks to all the pizza employees around the world who work hard grueling hours to make our pizzas. Unfortunately the pizza franchises don't want to pay them good wages.

What do you think? Would a Bitcoin-themed food business like this work?

Would you visit my cool Bitcoin pizza business? I'm getting hungry thinking about it.

I know this is a sarcastic post.. but... revenue doesnt equal net profit (besides not calculating POS variables based on menu Customers wont visit a restaurant because its "Bitcoin Themed" for a slice of frozen pizza.

Looking at the street view the location is horrible.

My #nostra journey has taken me through learning about lightning nodes, paid relays, and protocols! All very interesting stuff. I have an Alby hub setup (easy enough) and im working through the paid relay side of it. I don't think anyone would use it, but why not?

The supply chain world is headed for rocky waters. Banter between US/China regarding tariffs is heating up already with much confusion created around “what” will be tariffed, not if.

Unfortunately, speaking broadly about tariff implementations creates chaos when trying to strategize future production. Without visibility into cost impacts we cannot have a proper strategy.

We lived through this before, but there is added pressure to optimize domestic production while minimizing sourced #tariff impact. Not sure if there are any supply chain people on #nostr, but let me know if you agree - 2025 is shaping up to be a tough one!

“Retirement Funding”, the last bastion for white men.

If only there was some kind of policy that could be instituted to avoid the issue of forest fires by pruning trees and clearing dry material. /s

California is a black hole of federal spending.
