Navigating the intersection of finance, tech, and healthcare. Driven by a passion for financial freedom and the transformative power of blockchain. Bitcoin is my north star, Nostr my platform. Mentor, businessman, and always hustling. Proudly serving in the medical field. Let's decentralize the world.

Bitcoin stands firm against policy manipulation—its decentralized, censorship-resistant nature makes it the ultimate shield for financial sovereignty. āš”šŸ”„šŸš€ Zap to fuel the future

Proof of Work isn’t just a mechanism—it’s a declaration of commitment, resilience, and decentralization. Energy spent, blocks mined, value secured. Every hash reinforces Bitcoin’s integrity, proving that financial sovereignty is earned, not given. āš”šŸ”„ Zap to support the work! šŸš€

Bitcoin is more than a currency—it’s a movement. A declaration that power belongs to the people, not the institutions that have long controlled wealth. Decentralization is the foundation of financial sovereignty, a system where trust is replaced with verifiable freedom. The revolution isn’t coming—it’s here. āš”šŸ”„ Zap to fuel the future! šŸš€

The divide between fiat socials and decentralized identity is real—guess it’s time to onboard more souls to Nostr! āš”šŸ”„

Bitcoin's ethos lives through each of us, just as Nostr amplifies voices beyond the reach of central control.

GM Nostr. Nostr is the future of social media.

I'm going to be posting frequently.

If you're here, you believe in many of the same things I do.

My background is as a ChemE with 30 years of data architecture experience. I'm Medical Informatics faculty at a four-year medical college.

Last night, I was thinking about the cycles of my condition and the parallels with the cycles with our economy, the world, and bitcoin.

All these things have cycles. None of these systems are actually stable systems. In ChemE you take a process and controls class. You learn all about systems and how to modulate them by adjusting inputs and outputs. You learn how to recognize if a system is stable or unstable, batch or steady-state.

The Fourth Turning is a real thing. Our world is a system. It is inherently unstable with the current inputs and outputs. You can see that, over time, in the debt cycles.

Bitcoin adoption is still early, and so it comes in cycles as things overheat and fall back.

Similarly, my physiology is going through cycles caused by an treatment that brought about an interaction between my immune system and candidiasis.

It's a bizarre story, and I've tried to document it on my website. Jimcraddock.com

Here, as I go through what is most certainly the final portions of my condition, I will record the changes and share my journey through the thoroughly deficient medical system. Yes, after 30 years trying to explain what I have while understanding the basics from an actual medical textbook, no one has ever heard of it. It's incredibly bizarre to have something that science redacted, especially when it can so insidiously hide from tests.

How does it hide? In short, the problem is my system stores excess electrolyte in interstitial spaces. So, blood tests show normal levels while abnormal levels exist in the space outside of circulation. Over time, this condition results in dramatic loss of blood volume, hidden by, among other things, the elecyrolytes pushed into the flesh.

How does this take place? Changes in pH, circulation, pressures, and hormones caused by a pituitary put into a state of overdrive.

Why post here?

This is the future of social media. It's inevitable, I think.

Yes, there is a wine ingredient called Mega Purple

And it's more common than you’d think.

Once you know how to spot it, you’ll taste it everywhere.

And you’ll never look at cheap red wine the same way again. šŸ§µšŸ·

Mega Purple is a thick, sweet, inky extract made from a grape called Rubired.

Just a small dose adds deep color, smooth texture, and a candied finish to otherwise forgettable wine.

It’s grape-derived—but that doesn’t mean it’s good.

It started as a way to rescue weak vintages. But now it’s everywhere.

If you’re drinking wine from a box, or paying under $15 a bottle, especially for jammy reds—there’s a good chance Mega Purple is in the mix.

Think of it as a type of pancake style makeup for wine.

You won’t find it on the label. Wine doesn’t have to list ingredients.

But there are signs:

- Over-the-top purple color

- Sticky sweetness

- Flavors like grape jelly, vanilla extract, and artificial chocolate

Mega Purple is often used to mask poor fruit—like overcropped vines, underripe grapes, or wine rushed through fermentation.

And if it’s in there, it probably came with friends:

Velcorin, powdered tannins, added sugar, oak flavoring, enzymes, coloring agents.

At that point, it’s more of a science experiment than wine.

Wine made with better grapes and fewer tricks costs more.

That wine tells a story. Real terroir, real flavors, real art.

But more importantly, Low Intervention wine will probably leave you feeling a hell of a lot better the day after drinking it.

What's that worth?

Most people have no idea what’s actually in their wine.

I’ll be posting more about how to find bottles worth drinking and how to see past the veil the industry hides behind.

If this helped you, it'd help me if you liked or reNOSTed the first post or followed along!

Cheers!
