Useful private spending tool, a privacy empowerment tool, anti-state/gov surveillance, financial freedom (in the sense of free to transact and conduct business with nobody knowing), good for the black market, good to mine at home and run a node, helpful for moving sums of money quickly & efficiently, good for rejecting taxes, powerful tool in the belt for Freedom & Liberty minded individuals the world over.

No premine, no leaders, no centralized pools, no interest from the shiny-new-crypto-ponzi people, no meme coins and tokens and DeFi crap,, just block after block of truly encrypted & unknowable economic activity, powered by Proof of Work. I love it.

I prefer the current setup I have of Bitcoin as savings and hard money, and Monero as the tool for privacy and medium of exchange. It is truly the only other thing in this market of value; not a shitcoin. Understandable if it's not viewed as an investment, but as a protocol for sending value.

I love using Cake Wallet, LocalMonero, and soon being able to use Samourai wallet to sweep unusable Doxxic bitcoin dust into Monero.

Anyone who attacks Monero in favor of Bitcoin in regards to transacting, be it in totalitarian oppressive regimes, dark markets, or otherwise, is only looking out for their own bags, not other humans. Monero has undoubtedly saved thousands of lives from State prosecution, arrest, and even death. Freedom requires privacy at times. Monero is the best there is in that niche space, while not also being a ponzi and staying true to the values of Proof of Work.

Lol! Facts. GN everyone :) 🐈

Drivechains are back again and it's getting sweaty.

Reject modern degeneracy

Embrace tradition and common sense

Darn now I'm far right conservative bitcoiner

Feels Goodman

Seems more just a feeling of nature on your body and being connected to it. Natural textures like grass, sand, water, mud are calming and feel good. Doubt that electricity has anything to do with it

Bitcoin doesn't acknowledge anything but private key signatures

If you put the DMT on top of your weed, you destroyed it with the flame. You can sandwich DMT in between bud and then just lightly ignite the weed in a corner and keep it cherried. Some people like to use meth pipes to just vaporize it at lower temps. I like gravity bongs best though.

DMT when smoked correctly is the most insane, outrageous, paradigm-smashing thing in this entire reality. Hands down.

Yeah I tried the DMT vape cartridges twice and they didn't do anything.. just that bad smell.

Some people like using a meth-pipe/"rose holder" for DMT, but it's still not as intense as it gets

Best way is a gravity bong, imo. Whole bowl in one inhale, you'll hear The Sound and then you're in hyperspace before you even exhale.

Where did you try Ayahuasca? There's a ONAC Church here in Florida that offers it, called Soul Quest but I haven't tried it yet. Definitely had extremely high dose LSD + mushroom (sometimes both) where I lost all sense of being though. Set, setting, and intentions can make a big difference.

Salvia is one of the few I haven't tried. My brother did though, smoked a bong hit and he watched his body split into 3 chunks, each floating away from him into space. He described the 2D dimension thing as well, very wild.

Interestingly (take it with a grain of sand) I spoke to a shaman who told me the Salvia plant spirit hates fire, or being burned by smoking, and gives chaotic, disordered, often frightening visions in its protest..

He told me to instead wrap up the salvia leaves from the plant, and chew it, letting the juice build up in your mouth. Takes about 30-60 minutes to kick in, but it's beautiful, peaceful, enlightening, with a slow build up in intensity. Lasts about an hour or two before you come back, from what he described, which is also different to the short trips of smoking it. Food for thought.

I'd very much like to try both ways though! Salvia is fascinating.

All in due time :) Same happened to me, then the perfect place, perfect time, perfect people DMT situation occurred. Worth the wait! Outside with the trees and sky is definitely best.

Don't die without trying it. Highly recommend using a gravity bong, sandwiching the Deemz in between some weed so the flame doesn't touch it directly. Let the gravity bong do the suction work. Whole bowl in one hit. You'll probably hear 'the sound' and then fly through a wormhole to a higher-complexity dimension. Snapping back here 8 minutes later totally sober is... unnerving.

What's the strongest #psychedelic experience you ever had?

Any #DMT psychonauts on Nostr?

Nice... funny, I just had this Terence McKenna cedar wood-burning design made by an artist I know last weekend.

I'm getting an Alan Watts one next. :)

My own business at 9 y.o., picking up fruit from citrus trees, mowing yards, and weeding.

First real job was at a movie theater in high school at 16, worked with my girlfriend. We had fun. 😁

Very painful to see your oldest, best friend since childhood become the insane, ranting, nonsensical drug addict alcoholic you often see wandering city streets. He's done too many drugs by himself, alone. He's in another reality now. Rehab didn't work. AA/NA worked for awhile, until it didn't.

I fucking hate benzos & liquor, the way they crush a man's soul, possess you..

Scary to see what I likely would have become if I hadn't found #bitcoin and changed my life around, focusing on long term goals and creating a business. Now I sell security products for NFL, NHL, NBA games, and major music festivals, living my dream job traveling, clean from drugs, worshipping Christ & saving in Bitcoin. Bitcoin killed my nihilism and despair.

Bitcoin is Hope.

My once best friend will be wandering the streets on vodka & pills in the next 30 days when he's homeless again.

May God Bless you, Nick.

Thank you Satoshi, for blessing us with your Gift.
