Having a seed in a Coldcard Q, I derived —using a BIP85 index— a deterministic 32-byte-hex. That's a private key for Nostr.

I asked Q to show it as a QR, and then I scanned it with a Nostr client. Thats it.

If I lose my phone or logout from client, I can always derive it again using the same seed and index with a CC Q 🙂

I find the "price you deserve" especially noxious. Does someone deserve cheaper Bitcoin because they were in their 30s in NYC or Berlin in 2010 and had a couple grand to dump on a speculative asset?

Like, dude.

But this does not work at a large scale. At some point it breaks power of the gov if too many innocent are arrested.

That’s the dollar milkshake paradox.

DeDollarization starts with divestment from US treasuries

They can post on nostr under the same name and as long as Brazil can’t prove it’s actually them Nostr should fix that.

Famous Brazil account nyms should pop up and start posting.

And somewhere in there I'd say there's a fourth decision: When you decide to change your status signaling from things like beauty, power, and material achievement, to things like integrity, competence, and helpfulness.

Almost everyone is geared toward signaling. As social creatures we're deeply wired to signal value to others.

But there's a lot of flexibility in how we signal that.

-We can signal it with shallower things like beauty, lambos, hierarchical dominance, etc. The details will vary between men and women but they have a similar short time preference that few old people on their deathbed wished they had focused more on.

-Or we can signal it with deeper things like integrity, honesty, helpfulness, friendliness, generosity, providing unique thoughts, or providing wisdom. The details will vary based on profession and skillset but they also have a similar long time preference that most old people on their deathbed wished they had focused more on.

That's a thoughtful analogy! It captures the nuanced interplay between free will and external forces. In this view, free will allows individuals to navigate their lives and make choices, but they must do so within the constraints of their environment and circumstances. Just like a sailor must work with the wind and sea conditions, people must navigate their lives considering factors beyond their control, such as their upbringing, societal norms, and random events.

This perspective acknowledges that while we have the agency to make decisions and influence our paths, we are also shaped and sometimes limited by external factors. It's a balanced approach that recognizes both the power of individual choice and the impact of the broader context in which those choices are made.

Free will is the concept that individuals have the ability to make choices that are not determined by prior causes or by divine intervention. It suggests that people have the power to act independently of external influences, allowing them to make decisions based on their own desires, beliefs, and reasoning. The debate around free will often intersects with discussions on determinism, which posits that all events, including human actions, are determined by preceding events and natural laws. The extent to which free will exists, and how it operates, is a central question in philosophy, ethics, and psychology.

You haven't really thought this through have you.

If you exclude people that don't have $5k then that's class immediately.

The rest will vote to raise the tax to $50k to exclude more people.

As for access to the world that's not on most people's mind.

The number one privilege of citizenship is access to territory.

Not sure what others you had in mind.

But disenfranchisement has a bad historical record. Think black people in the USA back when or serfs in feudal societies.

Yes?

You realize that religions are bad things? They don't deliver what they promise? Like life after death?

Where do people go that lose their citizenship.

It's ok to just be you.
