I’m seeing more and more BTC and crypto ATMs over Sydney 🇦🇺 The prices are ridiculous (+ 10%) and you have to KYC. Someone must be using them.

Day 1 #bitcoinatlantis, ended up in the police station. Good times. 😅

Byron Bay, Nostralia

The profits (which are about $5/book) from the first 1,000 copies of Broken Money are going to the HRF Bitcoin Development Fund.

I think I will put the profits from copies 2,000-5,000 into making a slick animated YouTube video about the history of money and banking and the emergence of Bitcoin (basically the 30-minute summary of Broken Money). Kind of like Dalio’s “How the Economic Machine Works” video.

A popular 500 page finance book can reach tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people. But an equivalent video, while not as deep, has the potential to reach millions as a different part of the knowledge funnel.

Because, I dunno. Fuck profits I guess. The rest of my business covers profits; the book is for a different purpose.

If you find yourself constantly outraged at some thing that happened or the news, or what someone said, then they have you exactly where they want you - under their control.

Outrage is a powerful form of control. When you're angry, they've got your attention, and they can manipulate it. The provocateur is in the spotlight, as if important.

When you ignore them, they are powerless.

The instinct is to throw more outrage at the thing that triggers you, whereas the opposite action is more effective - ignoring the thing entirely.

Killing trees and wasting electricity to print newspapers is completely unacceptable in the digital age.

It’s time for the New York Times to #StopThePresses 🛑 before it’s too late.

Let’s change the news, not the planet.
