Soon Bitcoin will start ripping to the upside and we’ll be excited and happy, but also dreading it because we wish we had more time to stack. But while we’re sitting in that fun and uncomfortable roller coaster ride to new heights … the normies believe it or not, —still won’t care.
They won’t get orange pilled until their net-worth evaporates, and then it will basically be too late.
Another great episode of Sedrick’s podcast:
Jason Maier wrote this well articulated analysis of the recent Bitcoin political alignment:

Bitcoin is hope. Hope that we will actually prosper instead of languishing through a series of accelerating deteriorations with a deteriorating ability to survive them.
If you are buying or trading bitcoin treasury companies stock, you must already have an obscene amount of bitcoin.
Got it
This trailer is still one of the best bitcoin videos ever!
Luke Broyles— where is the full length feature film??
Jeff Booth once again explains how Bitcoin is the world’s first free market:
Excellent brief lecture on the history of fiat money and central banking….
Every time I attempt to orange pill someone, it goes incredibly badly. I honestly think I am done trying. I’ve tried various approaches. I’ve tried being patient and trying to engage people where they’re at.
I listen to their endless concerns and complaints about politics and world affairs and even inflation. But it seems that they don’t really want to engage or to think about the myriad issues and interwoven relationships between the history of money and the impacts on society. I don’t know if it’s because it hurts their brain, or because they’re just too comfortable to worry about it, or because they don’t see me as a person worthy of listening to. But for whatever reasons they are not open to it— and it seems that the number of touch points nor the various approaches I have taken have any effect. These are people I love and care deeply about. But they aren’t listening. They aren’t curious. I can’t save them, and
I’m done trying.
Just as relevant today as it was 2 years ago, if not even more so.
Another great rip by Adam Livingston, where he pretty much sums it all up:
Do you know about
THE RULE OF 72?
Here is THE RULE OF 72:
If your fiat is losing value at 7% annually, that means in 10 years you’ll lose more than half of its purchasing power.
72 / 7 =10.286
This is a shorthand equation for calculating the half-life of decline.
The full equation is:
V= P x (1- r) ^t
Ending value = principal times one minus rate to the power of time
This is a formula for calculating the decline in value over time with r being the percentage rate.
Note that this is almost the same equation for calculating compound annual growth ( 1+ r) instead of (1-r).
Umbrel made a significant change to the UI of Bitcoin core Node. I like the global node peer visualization graphics.
Currently on my nightstand
Daily dose of the Bitcoin Wizard, Adam Livingston!

The U.S. dollar continues to collapse in bitcoin terms.

F’in Brilliant as always, Wicked!! 🧡
I feel this too— are we obligated to shout from the rooftops like crazy people? How can you not when you know your loved ones and fellow humans are unaware of the atrocities of fiat? I’ve tried orange pilling the people around me and am continually met with resistance, mockery, sympathy, and concern. The only solace I can find is in the solidity of bitcoin itself. Slow. Steady. Quiet. Incremental growth. Tick tock. Proof of work. No debasement. No marketing. Just mathematical truth. And each block strengthens the system. Each block strengthens my conviction. All I can do is lead by example. Oration is not one of my super powers. But tenacity just might be.
It’s a peninsula in the middle of the ocean— so the hotter it gets on the mainland, the more cool air is pulled in from the ocean air. It’s nature’s air conditioning. It’s the fog that swoops down over twin peaks like soft little kitten paws. We call it Karl. And there’s even an app-for-that. Karl shows the weather in SF delineated by neighborhood because yes in fact we also have microclimates— another SF phenomenon. July is our coldest month. And September is the hottest. It doesn’t make any sense. It doesn’t favor tourists. It’s just the way it is.
A dose of Adam Livingston goes quite well with your first cup of coffee!…..
A hard truth:
Just because you’re right about Bitcoin, doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re right about anything else. 😅🤔
