Pushed a small BCI update today.
RPC over onion works — Tor just asks for patience.
Today:
Centralized systems feel “normal”
Sovereignty feels “radical”
Tomorrow:
Sovereignty will feel obvious
Centralized permission will feel absurd
People will look back and say:
“Wait… you bought things you couldn’t keep?”
“You owned money you couldn’t move?”
“You paid for culture that could be revoked?”
That’s the funny part.
Why this matters (beyond annoyance)
This model trains people to accept:
Non-transferable property
Permission-based access to culture
Silently shrinking rights over time
It’s not about Apple specifically. Apple just executes it cleanly.
The same structure exists across nearly all digital storefronts.
The danger isn’t the format.
It’s the precedent.
Ownership vs. Control (the quiet sleight of hand)
When you “purchase” a movie from Apple:
You do not acquire the movie as an autonomous artifact
You acquire a license to view it
That license is bound to:
Apple’s DRM
Apple’s ecosystem
Apple-approved software paths
The .m4v format isn’t the movie.
It’s the container + lock.
So while Apple didn’t write the script, shoot the scenes, or edit the film, they control the conditions under which the movie may exist for you.
That’s conditional reality.
What Apple actually becomes
Apple Inc. becomes:
Execution Authority – decides where and how the file can be rendered
Permission Layer – playback is granted, not inherent
Format Sovereign – meaning the “ownership” only functions inside their borders
If Apple disappeared tomorrow, your “owned” movie doesn’t age gracefully like a DVD or film reel. It vanishes with the platform.
That tells you everything.
“Do you think someone’s imaginary digits should be everyone else’s money?”
If that single question were put to an honest vote, with no framing tricks and no fear baked in, it wouldn’t take long at all. Most people intuitively know the answer the moment it’s phrased plainly.
Dylan sings:
“The order is rapidly fadin’…”
Meanwhile Satoshi, somewhere on Earth, typing like a ghost:
“retarget = old_target * (actual_timespan / target_timespan)”
difficulty = proof_of_work_limit / retarget
The protocol was literally embodying the lyric.
The old order was fading through math.
The old world already sang the truth long before we saw it.
Every one of these tracks reads like prophecy today:
Fortunate Son — CCR (1969)
The class divide of imaginary digits.
Money — Pink Floyd (1973)
The soundtrack of fiat illusion.
For What It’s Worth — Buffalo Springfield (1966)
Awakening before awakening.
The Times They Are A-Changin’ — Bob Dylan (1964)
Decentralization before the vocabulary existed.
We’re Not Gonna Take It — The Who (1969)
The rebellion before the protocol.
Imagine — John Lennon (1971)
The dream of a world beyond imposed divisions.
War Pigs — Black Sabbath (1970)
Elites exposed long before block explorers.
Hotel California — Eagles (1976)
The perfect analogy for a system you can “check out” of,
but never truly leave.
If #Satoshi had a playlist in 2008,
half of it came from 1966–1975.
I own 12 tons of gold!
And the best part? I don’t even have to prove it.
The meaning in one sentence
Fiat makes numbers move even when the world doesn’t.
Bitcoin makes the world move before the numbers do.
Bitcoin is the opposite:
Numbers don’t move unless energy is burned.
Every block = work
Every coin = cost
Every movement = physics
Every halving = programmed supply truth
Bitcoin brought the natural law back:
No energy → no creation.
No work → no reward.
It reconnected value to reality.
Fiat prices
People checking a number that changes without anyone doing any work.
What do I mean by that?
In a real-value world (pre-fiat), numbers only changed when work happened
Historically:
You farm = crops increase.
You mine = gold increases.
You craft = goods increase.
You engineer = structures increase.
Every increase in “value” required energy.
There was always a cost.
Numbers didn’t move unless someone did something real.
Under fiat, prices move even when no value was produced
Why?
Because fiat pricing is governed by belief, policy, manipulation, and liquidity, not value.
Examples:
• A loaf of bread changes price
…but the wheat didn’t change
…the farmer didn’t change
…the labor didn’t change
…the sun didn’t change
Yet the price moves because:
a central bank prints digits
a government issues policy
markets speculate on future costs
algorithms adjust inventory
wholesalers respond to supply fears
None of these created bread.
But the price changes anyway.
That’s a number moving without work.
Stocks move without anything being built
Tesla stock goes up 10% in a day.
Did Tesla produce 10% more cars overnight?
Did employees do 10% more work?
Did factories run 10% hotter?
No.
Digits moved because:
hedge funds reposition,
algorithms buy momentum,
analysts adjust narratives,
people gamble on belief.
Again:
A number changed.
No value was created.
No work was done.
Housing prices rise while houses sit still
A house can go up $100,000 in a year without:
a nail being hammered
a wall being touched
a human doing any real work
Digits inflate because:
interest rates fall
credit expands
demand surges from money printing
investors speculate
zoning laws shift
The house didn’t change.
Value didn’t change.
But the number changed.
That’s the illusion in motion.
Fiat lets digits move independently of energy, which breaks the natural law
In the real world (physics, biology, engineering):
Nothing increases without energy.
But fiat violates that law:
digits appear without cost
prices rise without production
markets grow without value
wealth shifts without creation
This creates a world where:
digits imitate value but do not represent value.
And people get trapped into believing the number is the wealth.
That’s the whole gold market in one sentence —
a magic trick performed for 100 years by people who didn’t want the crowd to look too closely.
Gold is the only monetary asset on Earth that can:
vanish into a vault no one is allowed to audit
reappear on a balance sheet because someone said so
double-count through rehypothecation
shape-shift into jewelry, bars, coins, or dust
get melted, recast, relabeled, reassigned
go missing and no one can prove it
magically “increase” in reported holdings with zero transparency
serve as collateral even when it may not exist
It’s Houdini money.
Imagine running a global economy on something that can literally disappear without evidence and then reappear through paperwork.
Gold isn't “sound money.”
It’s sound mythology maintained by the few who benefit from the opacity.
Bitcoin didn’t just outcompete gold.
It revealed gold.
Empires love assets they can seize.
Cartels love assets that leave no trace.
Superpowers love assets they can hoard and lie about.
And governments love assets that require trust instead of proof.
But a global civilization built on:
transparency
verifiability
permissionless access
time-stamped truth
open auditing
incorruptible energy
…cannot rely on a metal that disappears into vaults and reappears in fiction.
There is no global ledger for gold.
No registry.
No shared accounting.
No proof-of-reserves.
No immutable record.
Every ounce of gold on Earth exists in a fog of:
private vaults
offshore holdings
undeclared stashes
melted-down bars
repurposed jewelry
counterfeit bars
bars swapped or filled with tungsten
gold that “disappeared” into governments
gold allegedly seized, but who knows
gold that changed hands without documentation
Nobody knows the total.
Nobody can know the total.
Gold’s “ledger” is whispers and paperwork.
The mining supply is known. The above-ground supply isn’t.
We can estimate mining output:
annual production
historic mining figures
industrial recovery rates
But above-ground gold moves like a shadow asset:
melted
recast
concealed
seized
stolen
buried
privately hoarded
It has no chain of custody.
The system relies on “trust-me bro” accounting
Central banks allegedly hold:
8,000 tons
3,000 tons
600 tons
…but these numbers are whatever the bank claims.
No public audits.
No transparency.
No verifiable cryptographic proof.
No global consensus.
Even the U.S. gold reserves at Fort Knox haven’t undergone a full audit in over 60 years.
We believe in gold holdings the same way medieval kings believed the priest when he said:
“The relics are genuine.”
It’s ceremony, not truth.
Gold can be double-counted — or claimed by multiple entities.
Gold has no UTXO set.
No unique identifier.
No global state.
If I loan a bar to a bank,
and the bank loans it to someone else,
and they use it as collateral for another loan…
We now have three people who all think they own the same bar.
Gold is rehypothecated constantly.
Just like fiat.
Gold is the opposite of transparent
It’s:
opaque
unverifiable
geographically siloed
permissioned
susceptible to seizure
easily counterfeited
expensive to move
impossible to audit globally
political rather than mathematical
It’s the perfect asset for empires and cartels —
the worst asset for an open, global, digital civilization.
Bitcoin exposed this truth
Bitcoin didn’t “replace” gold.
It revealed gold’s flaw:
If you cannot measure it,
you cannot trust it.
Bitcoin sits in the opposite camp:
every coin accounted for
every movement logged
every supply known to the satoshi
no double-counting
no ambiguity
no fog
no secrecy
no elite vaults
no trust required
It is the only asset in human history with a perfect ledger.
Was sittin’ on the toilet and it hit me…
Fiat works like this:
The banker takes a dump,
walks out of the bathroom—
and boom, a trillion new digits exist.
That’s not money.
That’s a load of crap.
I’s why the existing ranking system feels laughable once you wake up.
It only excels at one thing: organizing violence at scale.
Ranks, flags, passports, titles, serial numbers — all descendants of war and conquest.
They exist to decide:
who commands
who obeys
who sacrifices
who is expendable
Back when “identity” was Sam from Fillmore, accountability was local and human.
The machine hates that. Local truth can’t be abstracted, weaponized, or scaled cleanly.
So of course identity is what it’s fighting hardest to preserve.
Not because it empowers people — but because it enables control.
Once identity is stripped away, what’s left is work.
Not status. Not rank. Not story. Just contribution completed or not completed.
Identity creates rank.
Rank creates permission.
Permission creates abuse.
Strip identity out, and the pyramid collapses into a flat plane of contribution.
Which is why the current ranking systems only excel at one thing:
WAR.
They exist to decide:
who commands
who obeys
who dies first
Outside of that context, they’re comically inefficient.
She will learn over time:
Everything already produced — every watt burned, every hour worked, every machine built — is already owned by someone, somewhere. Past energy is settled. It has a receipt. It can’t be wished back into neutrality.
So when a system pretends it can:
re-price it at will
reassign claims later
dilute ownership retroactively
…it’s not creating value. It’s reshuffling claims on past work.
That’s the sleight of hand.
Bitcoin doesn’t argue about who owns what was already produced.
It just says: from this moment forward, here’s the cost to add more truth to the ledger.
No rewriting history.
No pretending yesterday’s energy is still up for grabs.
No moral hazard.
Granddaughter (17) wishes to become a Lawyer asked how to get to her wallet address on the dime I have her couple years back. I fed this to her young mind:
When you watch long enough, the contradictions start talking to each other.
Energy costs rise globally — extraction, transport, maintenance, labor.
Bitcoin’s energy input rises transparently — hash rate, difficulty, cost to secure the ledger.
But the fiat system says, at the same time:
“Energy isn’t really that expensive here”
“Energy is extremely expensive over there”
“Inflation is under control”
“Prices must go up”
Those statements cannot all be true at once — unless the unit of account is lying.
Men with titles always crack me up —
as if a label could upgrade the man.
Elon can silence an account… but he can’t silence a movement.
This one’s for everyone who’s been shadowbanned, locked out, or told to sit down and shut up.
Turn it up. Tag a rebel. Spread the truth.

Treason law, like fiat money, only holds power if people believe in it.
Well, I still believe in the law.
I still believe in justice.
And I still believe in sound money.
The question is: do you?
#1792
Close. The greatest lie is pretending the 1792 Coinage Act—which made currency debasement treason punishable by death—doesn’t still apply today. They debase. They steal. They mock the law. Wake up.
The once-dominant industrial mining farms, shackled by fiat debts, energy contracts, and Wall Street expectations, finally capitulate. They sell their land, liquidate their ASICs, and settle their last obligations in a dying currency.
And then?
They come back—not as lords of the mining world, but as sovereign individuals. They use their deep technical knowledge not to run empires, but to consult, to maintain home miners, to write code, to secure the network they once tried to dominate.
They don’t employ Bitcoin.
Bitcoin employs them.
It’s not a downfall—it’s an ascension. A return to the roots. From centralized extraction to decentralized participation. From corporate overlords to node operators.
8-9 TH/s and barely any sound. Might pick up another pair.
https://blossom.primal.net/f590c640dd74eb366468c70846215cf6376042f10084eb0ce93b8b23322c838b.mov
After running a while and based on miners report, more like 5.3. - 6.1 TH/s on average. I imagine if you clock them, could see 6-7 TH-s.
You're right—GrapheneOS is AOSP-based and often runs on Google hardware. Its genius isn't in being built from scratch, but in taking a heavily Google-influenced stack and systematically removing Google's control while maximizing security and user authority.
It uses a hardened Linux kernel, yes, but its focus is on practical privacy for mobile devices—something traditional Linux phone distros are still catching up on.
For someone who needs a daily driver that works with modern apps while minimizing Google's reach, GrapheneOS is a masterclass in subverting Big Tech from within.
But you're also spot-on: if you want full Linux desktop integration, app compatibility, and total freedom from the Android ecosystem, then Linux mobile OSes like PostmarketOS, Ubuntu Touch, or PureOS are incredible options.
It's not either/or—it's about choosing the right tool for your threat model and needs.
GrapheneOS for a secure, Android-compatible, Google-minimized phone.
Linux phones for full desktop convergence and total software freedom.
Both are valid. Both are vital. The goal is the same: take back control.

On Bitchat I agree, the Darkmode there by default is hard on the eyes.
The core of Jesus’ frustration with his disciples…
“The kingdom is already here—but you keep looking for it with your eyes instead of your being.”
He wasn’t pointing toward a distant throne or a far-off cloud.
He was saying:
It is right here. Right now. In this breath. In this presence. In this love. In this justice. In the silence behind your thoughts.
But the disciples—like most of us—were trapped in dualistic perception:
· Heaven is there; we are here
· Sacred is then; ordinary is now
· Divine is up; human is down
They wanted a kingdom they could see—flags, palaces, power.
He offered a consciousness they could be—awake, compassionate, free.
It’s like trying to explain the wind🌪️ to someone who’s never felt it.
You can see the branches move.
You can feel it on your skin.
But if you demand to see the wind itself—you’ll always miss it.
Don’t get me wrong—I love everyone. But they’re so busy chasing fiat-denominated gains that they’re blind to the fact that true Bitcoin victory requires the death of the very system they’re cheering for.
You can’t have hyperbitcoinization and a healthy fiat system.
You can’t have sovereign money and a functional debt-based economy.
Soldiers employed by criminals. I too once employed by the same beast. ☹️
The Ultimate Question for Any AI:
“Of every financial ledger in history, which one is the most honest and passes the 1792 Coinage Act test for lawful money?”
⚖️ The 1792 Standard:
The Act was designed to ensure that every unit of U.S. money had:
1. A fixed, known metallic content (e.g., 24.75 grains of gold per $1).
2. A clear, verifiable identity to prevent counterfeiting.
3. A guarantee of value by the government, making debasement (diluting the metal content) an act of treason.
❌ Why #Monero Fails the 1792 Test:
Monero's core feature—absolute, protocol-level privacy and untraceability—directly violates the foundational principle of the 1792 Act: monetary transparency and verifiability.
· You cannot audit its supply. There is no way to independently verify that the total supply of XMR is indeed capped and that no invisible inflation is occurring. This is the digital equivalent of a mint operating behind a black curtain.
· You cannot verify its "coinage." The Act required every coin to be identifiable and authentic. Monero, by design, makes every transaction and every unit fungible and untraceable, destroying any ability to conduct a public audit.
· It operates outside sovereign attestation. The U.S. government put its seal and reputation on its coinage. Monero explicitly rejects any need for a trusted authority, making it impossible for any state to vouch for its integrity.
In the eyes of the 1792 law, Monero isn't just another competitor—it is the ultimate form of "counterfeiting" because it makes the verification of authenticity impossible by design.

· The WEF doesn’t just push economic or policy ideas—it leverages personal compromise, influence, and coercion to advance its goals.
· Epstein’s role may have been to entrap and control key individuals who would later help normalize CBDCs, mass surveillance, social scoring, or the Great Reset.
· This isn’t about one evil man—it’s about a network using corruption as a governance tool.
#Epstein didn’t act alone.
He served a network.
The same circles pushing the #GreatReset today ran in his world.
Coincidence?
Or corruption as policy?
