Another GIF for you guys to use to welcome the newbies.

I love The Muppets. Sorry, not sorry.

What a weird building in central Paris.

Another gorgeous day:

Accidentally zapped myself not realizing that the zap button on primal is so automatic once loaded with sats. Time to zap three random people to make up for the three self zaps. Learning new tech is fun but also requires patience, experimentation, and error correction.

Heres my list:

1) No one listened and no one bought

2) im still considered being dumb

So you orange pilled one of them?

Also sorry about your dad

how do you successfully orange pill so many people? asking for a friend

People I orange pilled in real life.

1. Old boss who was already rich - 5btc (still has it)

2. Ex business partner - 10btc (lost it trading, does forex now)

3. Friend from college - 2btc (sold at 20k to help with his dads medical bills)

4. Friend from high school - 4btc (lost it trading, later tried to hit on my wife)

5. Friend from high school - 7btc (spent it on partying)

6. Wife’s friend’s husband - 3btc (sold it all and bought ethereum)

7. Cousin in law - 1.2btc (sold half at 40k to pay debts)

8. Father - 2btc (died 18 months later)

9. Friend from college 2btc - (still has it, planning to sell at a million)

10. Wife’s coworker - 10btc (sold at 4k, later got into bcash)

I've been making new gifs to welcome our fellow nostriches

Use and abuse as you see fit

Meanwhile each of my DVMs holds their own keys 🤭👀

This isn't true.

Why? Because AI's are software, and software can't hold private keys.

Think about it. Imagine you are a software program, and you want to hold bitcoin. What are you going to do with your private key, such that the person who is running the computer you are on can't get it?

You could encrypt your private key, but then what are you going to do with the key to that encryption? Encrypting the key leads you down an infinite regress that gets you nowhere, because ultimately you have to have at least one final key that isn't encrypted.

There is a deep principle involved here, and that is: to utilize encryption YOU MUST BE ABLE TO PHYSICALLY SECURE YOUR PRIVATE KEY.

You have to place your key somewhere where no other entity can physically access it, either because it is hidden, or because it is physically impossible to access.

To have and hold #bitcoin or a #nostr account, you have to be a computer or even better a robot/human. You can't simply be software.

So in the article, the AI's don't hold the crypto. Whomever holds the computer that the AI's are running on, holds the crypto.

Cryptographic keys are philosophically very deep. There is a lot there to explore, in terms of identity, and what it means to be human.
