Not a Polar Bear, who went from Electronics -> Software -> Databases -> Monetary Systems.

Buying a fiat white from Vladimir the Ukranian at The Cobbled Roastery in Edinburgh. Paying with #BTC with my card from nostr:npub19khxx6jqxmankz6vp4ywqpnjp9m93g0gwqeq0v69knm6l9uys35qmu2tru, followed by a quick replenish on nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9. Life’s good.

The future as envisioned by MSM is always a bit extreme. Think about how the internet was presented in the early days; I expect somebody ridiculed email saying they could simply make phone call or send a letter.

The film image came to me and I Googled it. It’s the closing song from The Bourne Identity: Extreme Ways by Moby

Coming soon to a financial district near you…

“You played a house that can't be beat. Now look your head's bowed in defeat. You walked too far along the street where only rats can run.”

David McWilliams, 1967
