Can you explain this in more detail? Because to me it absolutely is a made-up thing that we created.
There is no money in the material universe other than what we conceive of in our minds.

I have a soft spot for some of Greg Egan’s work like Permutation City, Diaspora, and short story collections like Axiomatic and Luminous.
Highly recommended for sci-fi that really makes you think and sticks with you.
Such a stupid and pointless fight which was added just so Jet Li had a significant fight scene. Text book example of a terrible fight scene, which is perhaps why you raise it?
Boating accident?
Should get in touch with the 21 Futures people
Ya’ll want Nostr Lyn to write a sci fi novel in whatever spare time she has, or get back to finance?
Deadline for the 2nd anthology has already passed, but I’m sure they’d make an exception for a short story from you

When is someone going to develop a protocol that combines Bitcoin and Torrents to incentivise decentralised content storage and delivery…
i.e. you can’t change supply, but you can increase demand
The Twitter bird grew into an ostrich
The triad of the digital economy

And with that context you realise that you’re always buying low
I really feel this. All the normies I know think Bitcoin is just another asset to be traded at the right time. They can’t get their head around Saylor’s idea of it being pristine, low maintenance capital that you hold simply to store wealth… forever
My friend was shocked to hear that I rawdog running
Just me, my thoughts, and the next step
Isn’t that exactly how nostr works though? Relays are like nodes, notes are like transactions in the mempool?
As long as there are enough nodes/relays it’s difficult/impossible to shutdown the whole network. Right?
