The best way to find your true self is to serve something greater than yourself.

Every morning, I reflect on where I'm currently at, knowing I'll dearly miss these times when they are over. During the day, I'm preparing for the near future by coding, testing, and playing with tech. For a developer, there is no time like when you are fully focused and excited about what you're contributing to. I honestly can't wait for deployment and release.

And then at night, when the parties start... my God. This is what Uncle has been training for his whole life. There is something genius about destroying and losing yourself without limits.

The people around me are the biggest part of the experience. It's fulfilling to work with those I genuinely respect for their skills and what they bring to the table. And when you party with people that have known you for your whole life and still love you... it impossible not to be in a good place.

Bitcoin has had a profound impact by curating my surroundings. It has both connected and disconnected me from individuals. It has given me specific goals, forcing me to do things I wouldn't otherwise do. Sometimes it was extremely challenging, as my entire being was rebelling against taking certain actions. However, upon reflection, I realized there was no choice.

Either I serve as committed, or I don't. And serving has brought me here. To moments like this, where I feel compelled to capture the enjoyment and gratitude I feel and share it as a beacon for others.

Serve Bitcoin, and it will serve you. ✊🗽

Are you attending a builder’s collective currently, or are you just living somewhere that has a work hard / play hard lifestyle?

I embrace the entertainment value, sure… but beyond that, it doesn’t alter anything.

Routine DCA, regardless.

After Thursday’s presidential debate, I have a tough time relating to or wanting to be a part of any politics. I’ve been feeling this for quite some time and haven’t really supported any political candidate from either party since 2016. I sure as hell won’t support Donal Trump, I’d like Biden to step down, the DNC is corrupt, and the progressive wing of the Democratic Party is a laughable sideshow that’s ineffective and grasping for relevance.

I am left leaning ideologically and politically, and obviously while I’m feeling this and running nostr:npub1fpcd25q2zg09rp65fglxuhp0acws5qlphpg88un7mdcskygdvgyqfv4sld I can have mixed feelings about the title/brand. Can the progressive bitcoiner take on and be an identity of its own, calling those to embrace a new “progressive,” forward thinking view with Bitcoin? I don’t know, but many on the left are still absolutely repulsed by bitcoin and closed off based on tribal, group think. It’s disappointing to say the least. Is the title or risk of distraction worth it, considering the normie left isn’t tuning in as I desired anyway?

Bitcoin is millions of miles above this silly politicking and left/right divide. It is so much bigger, and more important, than all of this. My hope with the pod is that it has presented diverse content and helped people feel seen and heard that don’t typically resonate with the right/libertarian dominate crowd in bitcoin, not to divide.

My feelings on all of this may lead to a rebrand of the pod (removing political labels). It may not. I want to be very intentional either way, and my focus remains the same of wanting to highlight what I think are the most import things in bitcoin: human rights, mining and the environment, social justice, basic tech understandings, Bitcoin for everyone and global freedom money, etc.

This is the unsolicited life advice I needed, from the man I needed to give it, in the manner provided.

Stay progressive. Don’t let these lunatics make that mean something else.
