I just completed the rough draft of chapter two for a new book I'm writing called, The Nature of Bitcoin.

Had an epiphany on the mining stage during my panel with Troy Cross, Guy Swann and Blake King that I tried to articulate on the go and want to articulate it here.

It is very ironic that politicians and central bankers refer to bitcoin mining as wasteful.

I understand this irony very deeply because of the work we're doing at Standard Bitcoin. Our strategy is to identify rural towns with falling populations that have excess capacity at substations because a large manufacturing facility left town due to globalization.

At Standard Bitcoin we are taking advantage of the waste produced at substations across Appalachia. There is a lot of waste because the dollar system made it unprofitable to manufacture goods in the US.

Substations were built for heavy industry, heavy industry was eventually disincentivized due to monetary and economic policy, they were priced out and forced to leave or shut down, and substations were left behind producing massive amounts of electricity with declining demand.

Bitcoin mining has produced a profitable way to take care of the waste created by the dollar system and its perverse incentives that have led to a hallowing out of our manufacturing base here in the US. This is a beautiful thing and a saving grace for the Rust Belt.

It is truly ironic that those in government and central banking call bitcoin miners wasteful when we are fixing a waste problem that their policies created.

Our ability to solve this waste problem has very positive effects on the towns we operate in too.

We create jobs while allowing utilities to keep prices lower for residential consumers because we provide them with a significant revenue boost.

We're driving peak efficiency. We don't waste a single watt.

The gaslighting over this topic is pretty insane.

This is very important.

Sometimes when someone says to you, "You're selfish," what they're really saying is, "You're not sacrificing yourself for me."

There are two kinds of selfish. You're probably family with the negative one, where a person literally only thinks of enriching themselves.

But there is a good selfish too, which is, "I don't harm myself by thinking and acting only for others. I will also give myself compassion and communicate my boundaries." Healthy and functional people care for themselves before other people.

A 777 day streak on Duolingo practicing Korean and a little Mandarin.

It's the other way around. "I am, therefore I stack." There is no doing before being.

You want to know how to break out of the friendzone? Ask directly and kindly for what you want. If you want to date her, ask her on a date. If you want her to become your girlfriend, ask her to be your girlfriend. If you want to marry her, ask her to marry you. If she says no, then you can stop wasting your time on her. There are a billion prospects out there, and many of them would like someone who is direct like you. The women or men who wouldn't want to date someone who is honest about what you want, are worth moving on from, quickly. If you don't believe me, ask my wife, nostr:npub1ww8hsuav93ktwuq7x9gxz6husfphnvfjk3nm5k5y982evjh3kymqh4wakr

May I ask, what kind of work do you do in Zambia?

How to Solve Any Problem:

One of the rules for solving any problem is Adequate Level of Sophistication.

People avoid sophistication because it requires a greater level of intellectual energy. But whatever problem needs to be addressed, requires the level of sophistication needed, no more and more less.

It therefore behooves a person to become intelligent enough to handle virtually any level of problem requiring a certain level of sophistication.

There are three rules that apply to solving any problem.

1. Minimum necessary force (energy).

2. Minimum necessary sophistication.

3. Solve the problem where it is located.

Some problems are simple to solve, so they require a low level of energy, and a low level of sophistication. Another kind of problem may also require low force and low sophistication, but be located in an unusual location. Some problems look like physical problems, but are actually psychological. Some problems look like emotional problems but are actually physical. While other problems may look like emotional or physical problems, but actually be spiritually located.

If you don't know where a problem is located, you can have all the force and sophistication in the world but still not be able to solve the problem because you haven't located it's real location.

You need to be able and comfortable with conceptualizing the problem where it is at, rather than rejecting a dimension of reality because you have decided not to value it.

You may be able to find the real location of the problem, but lack the sophistication or energy to solve it.

To solve ANY problem, use minimum necessary force, minimum necessary sophistication (which might be a lot), and locate the real location of the problem, whether spiritual, psychological, philosophical, or physical, or all of these in some combination.

Then you will be able to solve any problem in the world.

I first bought Bitcoin on PayPal perhaps 5 years ago, about a dollars worth at the time. My first substantial "purchase" of Bitcoin was when I started crypto mining in early 2022, getting paid out in Bitcoin. Then down the rabbit hole I went.
