I don’t follow crowds or join tribes — except one: I’m a Bitcoiner

Why do people obey authority even when they know something is wrong?

In this podcast, I spoke with nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqdg6es53r3hys9tk3n7aldgz4lx4ly8qu4zg468zwyl6smuhjjrvsm58xhx about obedience, fear, conditioning, and why silence and compliance are still choices. At a time when governments are increasingly expanding systems of surveillance and control, we sheould keep speaking up when it matters.

Thank you for your courage and for the work you do, Efrat. It was a real pleasure to have this conversation.

I know someone that would be a perfect fit 😄 Where is the headquarter anways..

If I’m wrong about Bitcoin…’ there is a lot at stake.

I had the chance to catch up with Samuel Kullmann at Bitcoin Amsterdam.

He’s one of the first politicians in Europe to openly support Bitcoin, and he was debanked twice this year in Switzerland, without any explanation.

If anything, his debanking experience handed him a very strong personal argument that Bitcoin has a real use case.

Claire brings Bitcoin education into schools.

I had the chance to chat with her at Bitcoin Amsterdam

As the principal of Lomond School, her goal is to raise children who are disruptive, challenge institutions, and change the world.

We need more teachers like Claire :)

What happens when Bitcoin enters the polarizing political environment?

At Bitcoin Amsterdam, I spoke with Thierry Baudet

of the Dutch party Forum voor Democratie about the challenges of bringing Bitcoin into Dutch politics. He said that Dutch citizens are far ahead in adoption, while the government still largely ignores the topic.

We also discussed “Bitcoin and Crypto” vs “Bitcoin vs Crypto”🙃

Baudet explained that, as a politician addressing issues like unlimited money printing, CBDCs and privacy, it can be necessary not to pick sides too explicitly. This can quickly be misunderstood, and carries the risk of alienating certain voters. So I’m still curious where he personally stands on the “Bitcoin vs crypto” questio 😅

Germany’s Federal Minister of the Interior’s proposed “reversal of the burden of proof” isn’t about fighting crime, it’s about expanding state control.

When the state no longer has to prove your guilt before seizing your assets, the rule of law becomes a formality.

Can you elaborate?

“German hospitals still run on military-style ranks. When the pandemic hit I knew people would accept state overreach like a hot knife through butter”.

The cost of speaking out can be severe. Dr. Paul Brandenburg’s case shows this: 80 investigations, home raids, and now exile.

Does Germany have a unique culture of obedience, and is it to blame for its collapse?

Speaking out remains absolutely necessary, because it’s the only way change begins.

Record Debt. Record Inflation. Mass Surveillance. What If We Flip the Script?

Governments are working hard to make us more and more transparent. Yet when it comes to their own finances, where does all the money go? Wouldn’t it be better if it worked the other way around, with the government’s budget from income to spending entirely transparent to the public?

Public money should be public and verifiable. Private money should remain private and protected.

Too Free to Be Tolerated? Inside Germany’s Controversial Libertarian Festival (EN / DE)

🎥 Watch my documentary about the Afuera Fest on YouTube → https://youtu.be/w3tLre95fWA

The Afuera Fest brought together freedom-loving, government-critical libertarians, Bitcoiners, civil liberties advocates, and political dissidents in a rare space for challenging the status quo.

Bilingual documentary English & German.

This is totally unacceptable. We are being subjected to algorithms we do not understand, making decisions we can only guess, enforcing shadow bans we are unaware of, and imposing censorship without transparency. This cannot be the future.

From a consumer perspective, I follow people, yet they never appear in my timeline again. I can follow or unfollow anyone I want, but the algorithm still chooses what I end up seeing.

I guess it feels a bit like voting in our so called democracies 😉

I believe everyone should be able to build and fine tune their own algorithm to decide what they see, how often they see it, and from whom. We need tools that empower users to meet their complex needs and preferences. Will this ever be possible on Nostr?

comfort is killing you – be comfortable being uncomfortable.

to expand your comfort zone, search for discomfort. and with the growth of your comfort zone, you get more possibilities.

Can the digital euro (CBDC) replace cash? A peer-reviewed study by Dr. Patrick Schüffel says no. It fails on anonymity, fungibility, and universal acceptance.

Freiheit statt Fremdbestimmung. Nicht nur eine Haltung, sondern eine Verantwortung.

Freiheit beginnt bei gesundem Geld und endet beim übergriffigen Staat.

"Ich bin Bitcoiner im Herzen, ich habe nur noch keine."

At #AfueraFest in Regensburg, Lilia Lemoine, a member of the Argentine Congress and part of Javier Milei’s team, speaks in front of a group of young Antifa protesters.

Behind her, a protester goes full cringe while his family watches.

Props to Florian Handwerker for an epic event.

Big thanks to zippyemu5@primal.net for capturing the moment.

You pay the price.

Had a chat with GégéLSMR at nostr:nprofile1qqsd0f68dvf98gvs9am9dp0lu0f4r7xzu2k89rm9tt448axf5tu6wlgphpy4c who loves triggering the left and says Bitcoin mass adoption is way oversold.

“Bitcoin is meant for everyone, but not everyone is meant for Bitcoin.”

We also talked about Nostr: “I fuck with Nostr, it’s a great thing, but it’s an echo chamber.”

Is he right? What do you think?
