There is something so incredibly cool about walking across natural terrain with a giant sword on one’s back.

This is the core fantasy aesthetic.

NEW: Massachusetts Senator Peter Durant introduces a bill to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve—the first such legislation in a deep blue state.

Mega #Bitcoin miner MARA Holdings inscribes President Donald J #Trump onto block 879613.

The potential for transaction censorship is real.

The decentralization of Bitcoin mining is critical.

Here's a random post to counter what we normally see in social media.

In addition to being filled with filters, social media is filled with retakes. People will take a picture multiple times and then only show the best one, which provides the idea that the picture they posted represents the baseline for how that setting looks, which is generally unrealistic. It's the best shot at the best time with the best intentions.

The other day I went to NYC, and went up to an office I normally go to when I'm there, which has great views of the city. This day had clearer than normal weather, and I thought, "I'll take a pic."

The first one was a dumpster fire. Sun in my face making for both squinting and unflattering lighting. Hair all frizzy from just coming in from the wind at 8am (took a pic while I literally still have my coat and backpack on). Crooked glasses as the cherry on top.

So I see the laughable result, go and fix my hair for like a minute, pick a different angle, and retake the pic. It's still not amazing of course, but it's way better than the first dumpster fire pic, and only like 3 minutes later.

Now imagine all the people that put makeup on or filters on, and how different their pics look from their reality.

Never compare your first drafts to other peoples' final drafts. It's always a mess out there.

#damus’ first product planning meeting of 2025 for iOS about to happen…anything you want us to discuss? #asknostr #asknostr. FYI we already discussed GIF keyboards yesterday

Did a presentation yesterday with ego death team to over 80 funds, family offices, and high net worth individuals. All smart and curious. Just caught in the wrong frame of reference - like we all were at one point.

…And….Every time I do a presentation, talk or meeting (outside of #nostr ) it reinforces how unbelievably early we are on this journey.

One of the reasons, I was early and so intrigued with the internet, is that the smartest people I knew were moving their time to it. (Before it was captured by broken money)

The same thing playing out on the #bitcoin protocol with a massive added plus…..Not only the smartest/most curious people, but generally those with a high level of integrity and aligned values.

Feel so much gratitude to you all!

And good morning.

A friend from wallstreetbets, on reddit and Discord. She disappeared and people say she committed suicide but I can't find any proof. I keep hoping she's alive but can't find proof of that either
