This is my wife. Studied med, then changed out. 🥲

I have been wanting to put a letter to my churches session or committee of management telling them to start getting into Bitcoin. How did your church get into it?

Yeah, oops. I thought there was an issue authorising my nsec. Page was just slow😅

How come https://nostr.band/ says I have 90k followers but I only get a few replies to my notes on average?

Then if I try to query a bunch of relays for contact lists and rebuild my list of followers locally I only get something like 3k or 4k?

Too boring? 😉

From 1c per Bitcoin to now is about 2/3 of the way, in thems of % gain, to Michael Saylors estimated theoretical limit of Bitcoin. In this scenario Bitcoin denominates the total global monetised wealth. $500 trillion or roughly 21 million per Bitcoin.

First 1000x gain, 1c to $10 was fuelled by visionaries.

Second 1000x gain, $10 to $10k, was fuelled by gamblers.

The final 1000x gain, $10K to $10M will be fuelled by revolutionaries.

Over what time frame? I can see them coexisting for a while. Power structures can impose currencies. But I think it will soon be very difficult to create a new national currency when the old one fails, because a Bitcoin economy can spring up naturally very quickly. It will also be hard to maintain a national currency with Bitcoin waiting to precipitate a bank run if the national currency is abused.

Preventing Bitcoin will require strong authoritarianism, which is not an efficient means of governing and will lose out to more free economies.

I find talking to people about nostr easier than Bitcoin, because it doesn't feel like I am trying to sell them some multi level marketing scheme. Once they see nostr they see Bitcoin in action and it naturally leads to talking about Bitcoin, why it matters for a permissionless platform. Is there a good article introducing nostr and Bitcoin that can be shared?

I found a pleb who was following over 2000 accounts and hit follow all. Now my feed is like global without the spam. I lost a bit of control curating my feed, but saved a lot of time. So far I have been impressed with their taste 😅

About every 4 years. Being blamed for their 70% loss gets old quickly.
