Working on my first letter to investor.

#Bitcoin

Useless abstractions are stealing useful energy.

Something peculiar is also occurring with the "For You" and "Following" options. After scrolling for a few minutes in the "Following" tab, it automatically switches to the algorithm-generated feed.

Time to reclaim your brain. The dope hits were not the high you were looking for

I completely agree, but it seems that most NPCs populating our world are primarily interested in experiencing a neurochemical rollercoaster.

On this day, 6 April 2023:

1 BTC = $28,000 USD

“Taleb has openly acknowledged his mistake and gone short on Bitcoin.”

Bitcoin is the quintessence of antifragility.

freedom is on sale! * ** ***

*local laws apply which may limit freedom.

**credit card required to purchase freedom.

***Twitter Inc, your bank, or government may cancel freedom at any time.

You are still a slave to an algorithm on both sides. They won.

Agree with all of this but would love to see some balance. Twitter obviously still has the network and zeitgeist….and is the place to be when anything happens in the world. It is the most important host for the public conversation at the moment. And nearly 2 decades to work out many issues (and create more).

Twitter will never have many of the freedoms nostr enables. Doesn’t matter who runs it. It’s the single point of failure of an organization/company versus a protocol. Don’t trust me on this. It will continue to play out over the years.

nostr will be the slow and steady one to win the race…just like bitcoin. Either you build for and upon both, or you become increasingly irrelevant and disconnected (which is a reasonable, yet severe, decision to make).

Dopamine hit by algo feeds is a huge competitive advantage.

#Rome #Stoicism #Bitcoin #AI #LLM

I resurrected Marcus Aurelius, the last of the Five Good Emperors of the Roman Empire.

We discussed his personal life, success, society, and currency debasement, drawing on his experience with the now-defunct Denarius.

Then they fight you.

Who’s they: Legacy Wall Street with the US government and legacy media as their weapon.

We all know what comes next: Then they…

I thought exactly the same.

What we are going to learn:

- Marcus Aurelius’ introductory speech

- The Structure of the Brain

- A Battle for Minds

- Illusions, Religions, Myths, and Mental Health

- Data, habits, and practical approaches.

- Cognitive Biases, thanks Charlie!

So now US banks are inflation hedged across their entire bond portfolios on their balance sheet….for free….whether they were managing that risk or not….

I wonder what “interesting” incentives will pop out of this…🤔🤔😳😳😳😳

The patient is dead,

no amount of epinephrine can bring him back to life,

they are just financing alternatives like Bitcoin.

This wouldn’t be nearly as much fun if our adversaries in the legacy system were somewhat decent people. But they’re not, and that’s what’s going to make this so badass.

People are always asking what they can do to help the cause, but it’s really simple. Just buy Bitcoin and hold it. That’s the single most important action you can take to suck their monetary energy out of their cesspool of lies and activity.

I would add, learn and write.

I missed your article on nostr, i immediately add a vote for you on snapshot. Great piece! Courious to see how the protocol will evolve.

You are really kind Ojas, I feel lucky to have meet ppl like you in the ocean of the web. Courious to see if nostr can become the first true alternative to the centralized networks.
