The fiat monetary system is designed to create Climate Change. The Bitcoin monetary system is designed to solve it.

You know you’ve made it on Nostr when there’s a # for you 😂💜🫂 nostr:note17s0f37lajhck2fe7dx4yjkx056yfuxc3klgd8aeuzrvzhyavk64qg8lnxr

#Bitcoin rn

TBH I''m surprised that their is not yet a nostr based shoppinf app good enough.

A competitor to Shopify/Woocommerce/ Amazon, or a new Silk Road with Bitcoin embedded, makes so much sense...

Makes me wonder what the OJ Simpson trial would have been like with Twitter and other Social Media.

Some GN thoughts (maybe a rant?) - Most of y’all don’t know that I’m a deeply political creature - and I’m not ashamed of this, I just simply don’t lead with it. Lol.

But what I am most certainly NOT is a partisan, and I will tell you why:

Before I dropped out of my PhD program I racked up 96 graduate hours in leadership studies and what I learned was politics is simply how power is distributed. I learned that I’m a pretty big proponent of power to the people, myself. The whole life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness meets freedom and justice for all is my vibe.

In George Washington’s farewell address he warns about partisanship as a form of political theater used by clever, ambitious men to swindle the public and subjugate us through the centralization of ‘values’.

Funny how they don’t teach that in schools, huh?

Think about how the different social media platforms are also like their own political parties that reward conformity and loyalty and funding more than individuality, freedom, and justice. Just think about the parallels between the big parties and the big platforms - not that one platform is aligned with one party but that they act the same in terms of shaping how we behave and in terms of distributing power.

#Nostr is democracy in social media form. You can hate me if you want. You know I’m right. Lol.

GN Nostr. Sweet dreams. 😘

I don't know if I would use the word "necessary", but our civilization had no way to prevent it until the base layer Internet protocols came online. It took about a decade of development, from 1995 to 2008, until the pieces came together to create the new monetary foundation that we needed. And it took about 10 years after the launch of that system for it to spread wide enough to really catch people's attention and begin the adoption curve. We're at about 5% adoption right now.

The ability to tame the forces of nature, from physics to electronics to data management is one of the steps in the ladder that might take us beyond the final Great Filter. Whether we succeed, only time will tell. But now we have the second of the resources of civilization under control, Capital. Bitcoin provides that foundation, until its successor comes along in a few hundred years. First was invention/innovation, although without a secure foundation of Information it's a bit wobbly. Nostr is a good tool to use to build those two, but only if we don't allow edits.

The only way we wouldn't have an increase in the money supply is if something like Bitcoin existed.

Gold couldn't accomplish it because of various obvious factors.

So it's like asking me if humans never existed would money ever have been invented?

Money, withing itself, is a technological advancement.

We've had inflation since banks were restarted in the 13th century after the fall of Rome. So there was a lot more that we needed in terms of infrastructure and invention to make this happen.

No, we won't. And once we make the transition, it won't matter.
