Not sure if this is a rad fitness flex or if I should see a doctor

I’ve chilled out with endurance training (no session longer than 2 hours) over the past month and my heart rate at rest is still in the thirties 👀

Any Nostriches who do a lot of running rowing or cycling is your resting hr *this* low?

I had this friend who had two older sisters.

When he was 13 his dad’s affair was exposed and his parents got divorced. Blindsiding all the kids and destroying what they thought was a happy family.

Later both his sisters got married and promptly cheated on their husbands destroying their marriages. One even getting pregnant by another man.

We were talking about it one day and I said “isn’t it interesting that both of your sisters cheated before they could be cheated on by the men in their life, as sort of a trauma response to the fathers affair”

He looked at me and was like “I don’t think the two things have anything to do with each other”

I think about that conversation a lot.

Thank you kind sir! 🙏 So glad you finally got it. I hate dealing with customs. 🫡

(Un)popular opinion:

Most Bitcoiners are Fiatlings with a superiority complex.

Yup. For someone to take home €36k in Italy, the employer has to lay out €88k.

I wonder why small businesses here are dying? 🤔

From The Sovereign Individual I am learning that in the early years of the printing press, from 1518 to 1525, Luther's works were a third of all German language books sold.

So there is nothing odd about most of Nostr being discussion centered on Bitcoin.

If I wasn’t working on ecash, I’d be working on making seed phrases obsolete. They’re the worst possible UX imaginable.

"Hey, we have the best engineered money in human history…but before you can use it, you have to grab a piece of paper and write down 12 random words. BTW if anyone ever finds this paper, they can steal your money forever."

Deeply unserious UX.

I think seed phrases are the best solution we have right now. But it’s naive and short sighted to think they’ll remain the standard for self custody / backup, or that we can’t design something 10x better and just as secure.

Ben, when updated tutorials dude?

Bitcoin treasury companies are literally send me 1 bitcoin and I’ll send you back 2 but as a real buisness 😂

⚡️🚨📈 ALERT - Global M2 money supply hits a new all-time high of $22 Trillion.

Hey, I’m Sarah. I’m 19, turning 20 on July 24th. I’m originally from New York, but I live in Texas now.

I’m a writer and poet someone who’s been through a lot and found a way to turn pain into purpose. I speak from the heart and value growth, healing, and real connection. I’m new here and just starting to learn about Bitcoin. I’m curious, open-minded, and ready to explore this space, ask questions, and soak up as much as I can. If you’re into real conversations and genuine energy, I’m glad we crossed paths. #introductions onboarded by nostr:nprofile1qqsph6fjv9504a84auv8wz43v0lzcf4uqjwjz2vpscmhehqr80mfv9qpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0ds8z0w95

⚡️🇸🇻 NEW - The latest IMF report states that El Salvador has not purchased Bitcoin since February 2025.

In particular, the IMF cites a letter signed by the president of the central bank and the country's finance minister.

The report notes that recent reserve increases come from internal consolidation from other wallets held by El Salvador, and not from new purchases, which would contradict President Bukele's claims of daily purchases of 1 BTC.

⚡️📊 NEW - Ethereum has entered the top 30 global assets with a marketcap of $434 billion, taking 29th place ahead of Johnson & Johnson and Costco.

Gotta hand it to Jehova's Witnesses though, when they come to my door they're not convincing either but at least they're polite.

Solar and wind:

-are incredible for off grid applications (i.e. where there is no reliable electricity/grid)

-can be useful backups on a small scale

-are unreliable energy sources

-are intermittent energy sources

-are low density energy sources (as compared to coal, nat gas, hydropower, nuclear)

-at grid scale increase significantly the cost of electricity

-at grid scale fragilize the grid

-at grid scale cannot replace reliable high density energy generation, as westerners do not find blackouts acceptable

-have been pushed by cantillionaires at the eulag, and both sides of the US uniparty by way of diktat, subsidy, penalization, and other forms of central planning
