Did you know that Lightning channel partners can easily rug each other?
Do you know why it happens so rarely that we’ve never seen an example?
It’s BEAUTIFUL and BULLISH for Lightning, Bitcoin, and humanity!
Pura Vida!
I’m pondering what it means and costs to have conviction in this world.
There’s nothing more unacceptable socially than someone with conviction. Your social network will pull out every trick in the bag to break it including the threat of ostracization.
In order to maintain conviction, we must be willing to pay any cost. So it’s important to do the work required or else most of us will cave.
Learn as much as you can about yourself, the world, and Bitcoin every single day. Know that there will be a greater test ahead.
Pura Vida and Happy Easter!
Both my children were diagnosed with Autism and both diagnoses were horseshit.
There is such an over diagnosis of Autism and PDDNOS because of a glut of Fiat money. They don’t need it.
Learn to communicate and trade value with people on that spectrum and you might make it. They are the future.
Direct relationship. Not correlation - it’s causal.
The printer will run out of toner and eventually many will see their way through it - but they’ll have to earn Satoshis cause they won’t be able to just buy them with bullshit money like we can.

Lightning is an incredible thing to understand. The way in which it eliminates trust is both incredibly primitive and revolutionary at the same time.
Did you know that when you open a channel, your partner sends a “blank check” pre-signing the transaction for closure? Your threat to use it is what keeps him from blackmailing you using his signature as a ransom.
It goes even far deeper than that.
Totally doesn’t scale but that’s the next generations problem - what we have is the fact we know a trustless payment system can exist.
I’m starting to think that my example is more meaningful to raising my children than my Fiat resources.
Now that I have a nice stack in both fiat and btc - they would benefit from seeing me act strong and spend time consistent with my principles and not serving weak men who add no value.
It’s not black or white but it’s a big factor to negotiate. There is a value in doing what you have to to put food on the table - but I want to also teach my kids to resist captivity. They can save their way out of it.
Resurrection of the soil from regenerative farming - FTW
I would at least supervise and want to know what they like to do. 13 year olds are ripe for pay-ops for horrible values.
It’s like exposing your private keys to the internet - you generally wouldn’t do it unless you had a rock solid strategy for protecting them after allowing for that exposure.
Being well-paid by Fiat money is it’s own form of captivity.
I’ve written a bit on this - at least w.r.t. diaspora
Torah became decentralized and couldn’t be destroyed - that’s how they survived the purge.
Land was dematerialized.
Rabbit hole - is long for rabbi - and I’ve likened the Bitcoin rabbit hole to Rabbinical study.
Israel is pure Fiat - but there are based mofos there using Bitcoin to get freedom for everyone who is willing to give up fiat to have it.

Another day to make the most of. We may live a long time but we’ll never live again like we do today!
It should surprise nobody that there are studies that show government intervention in our water is perfectly safe.
It would surprise me that people who believe such studies are GMI.
Learn first principles of electromagnetism and biology and you ever have to trust a government funded study again.
Also - if isn’t about consuming structured water - ifs about having our bodies holding it in that form. We lose the ability to do that in the presence of non-native electromagnetic fields.
Important to remember - not all water is created equal and it’s the water that’s structured that sustains life.
Bulk water, flourinated water, municipal water - they’re all shitcoins and they will kill you slowly like seed oils.
It’s not the water - it’s the electromagnetic environment surrounding the water that determines the angles of the hydrogen isotopes, and thus, the electrolytic capability of the water.
Me too. I maxed credit cards and hit the limits and had to 1) accept I couldn’t spend anymore; and 2) accept that I had to pay every cent of the debt.
Never had unsecured debt since and never will.

AAPL has a chance to make it into the BTC5 index. Slots 2-5 are up for grabs.
