Random take: the precise word for proof-of-work, in its purest form, existing for its own sake, is 'art.'

Is Ross getting freed in 2 weeks?

How to know if you're an NPC?

Do you live in the dead center of the Overton window when it comes to EVERY issue?

You're probably an NPC.

Magic Mike on a bike?

Is Ross Ulbricht a human orange pill? The behemoth State attempted to ingest and destroy him. Yet now the State appears to be poised to spit him out, transforming in the process into a vessel for an emerging #bitcoin standard. If the Silk Road coins end up being the seeds of a future strategic reserve, this could easily be argued.

I do not want to romanticize his plight, because he is not some fictional character. But I can't help but notice that there is something profound about the proposition that one man's freedom was unjustly seized, seemingly as requisite tribute to secure greater human Freedom. It's oddly transactional and takes on a metaphysical significance.

My 21 sats. Maybe I'm overthinking it. Wouldn't be the first time. #freeross

I love so much that this noise pollution barely penetrates Nostr

Nostr is the back room at the party where the music/vibe is dialed to the perfect level of chill. For now.

Makes perfect sense to me. Not that it's morally right. But entirely rational. Once society decided to tolerate one injustice (a group of corporations pursuing profit at the expense of the populace), the door was opened for any/all resultant injustices that followed.

Villainy begets villainy.

Like a GoT dragon

Their time will come.

Keep your head up brother.

Did this mfer just ground and pound a 150 lb seal to death

Today, I learned that my wife (a seemingly permanently fiat-minded bitcoin skeptic) informed me that she now has a monthly #btc DCA set up

I had given up on her 🥹🥹🥹 #soproud

Scrolling through my old coinbase activity from back in the day (when i believed shitcoin hype).... one thing i can't deny is how much fun it was trading all that bullshit

Ngl the shitcoin narratives were pretty exciting. Dogshit. But exciting.

I have no doubt the founding fathers would have been nostriches. Ben Franklin would have 1000% had laser eyes.

Your monetary unit is the equivalent of your economic calorie.

When will people comprehend that?

Presupposing a FAIR economic system, if an individual is honest, hard-working, and can delay gratification, over the long arc of time, money/resources WILL gravitate toward them. This is as certain a reality as water finding its way to the lowlands.

**Not +1300%

1300x (i.e. +130,000%)

Fellow plebs! I've successfully tamed the bull. Made a $100 smash buy, which historically GUARANTEES an immediate dip. I can only hold off hyperbitcoinization for so long though.... Happy stacking.

"Weird as it may look"..... talk about understatement.
