The parent/s were likely involved or at least knew something. If anything like their kiddo… they are likely worried about their exposure more than SBC’s sentencing. Egocentric bastards.
Think that is where the staying humble part comes in.
Thing is he has played the Fiat game so well and used the state apparatus to get ahead it would cause cognitive dissonance to fully go down the rabbit hole. The interesting people are people who have had great success in the fiat world but still grok Bitcoin like Bill Miller.
The fact that Elon Musk's title is "Technoking" and Jack Dorsey's title is "Block Head", speaks volumes.
One is about ego, and one is not. But more importantly we can see the difference in their actions more than titles from there.
Elon wants to build Twitter or the shitty name "X" into the next WeChat, with himself as the leader. He has literally said this. I used to be able to report bots on Twitter easily for many years, but now I have to show a drivers' ID to report someone that copies my persona even as a 600k following paid blue check, and so I don't bother anymore, and therefore bots proliferate. And if you don't pay for reach, you get devalued. Only in the past few months have I had to show my ID to report my countless bot copiers if I want to report them on Twitter/X. And so their rate of removal has decreased. If my Nym differs a bit from my name, well LET'S FILE SOME TPS REPORTS!!!! (which wasn't previously the case). And so as bots proliferate, and as Musk fails to contain bots as he promised he would and bragged about with memes, he will instead reference his own self-created bot problem as a reason to require even more ID requirements and try to build his US version of the Chinese Communist Party WeChat app. This is exactly what governments do. In my professional opinion, after careful consideration, Elon Musk can ::check notes:: politely go fuck himself, and those who worship him should reconsider what exactly they show blind obedience toward.
Meanwhile, nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m helps improve the Bitcoin network and the Nostr network and has put capital into them in various ways, and Bitcoin and Nostr have no leader. The fact that Bitcoin and Nostr have no leader, is specifically why Jack puts time and capital into them. He funds many different companies, and for bitcoin, Cash App has been among the networks to incorporate Lightning early. Yes, Cash App deals with domestic compliance issues. But they are trying, and they are early. Their network can connect to many others, like an email provider using SMTP to connect to many others. They're open, they're trying. And now they are making Bitkey, which helps with self custody. They're certainly not a directional enemy of freedom in the way that Twitter/X has been.
Companies that incorporate open networks with various levels of compliance trump companies that purposely don't adopt open networks and instead push new ID requirements, in my book.
+10 Jack
-10 Elon
Any day of the week.
nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx . Exactly what you are talking about. #FreedomTech is the only way to go.
Guess that’s when you need a hard fork.
Also who values the same ideas. Some people just want to be in the mix. Others seek principles.
That is kinda sad and I guess somewhat predictable. Choosing the platform (collective) over the individual is in our nature. But finding a tube that is aligned with you is priceless.
Enjoy!!
This is a great piece written by Hayek and read by nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev. Many ideas that come from first principles.
Think the saying don’t trust verify fits right in.
The courage to speak the truth in a time where anger and emotion beset is all is truly an act of leadership. And to be so spot on with predictions of loss of freedoms at home and loss of innocent life abroad.
“studying him in the human musk of a startup grind and chatting in between beanbag naps”. 🤡🤡. Unreal
Orange killed a friend for her Birthday with a little Bitcoin. Show her some birthday love. 
He talks about GatGPT and also the new Documentary Death Athletic with Michael Malice on the most recent Your Welcome. https://fountain.fm/episode/Jq5lqYtlhwf1D0XsCxH1
When you have kids you realize that not only don’t you have free time you don’t even have time for yourself. Going from zero kids to one is a true game changer. But by the time you have four you can’t even remember your life before!!😂😂
Tomorrow night, we are initiating a new Member perk by kicking off the nostr:npub1theparkprcs70dcs437ke9zzwsr6u60f8flu7rg28m30438aep9sd94dha movie series with the cult classic, “The Big Lebowski”. White Russians will be served & jelly sandals worn. Perhaps bowling afterwards? 
Watch out for the rug pissers.
