Earnings sats by paying my bills, and all other fiat spending, via Fold.

Fee-free withdrawals, Direct to Bitcoin deposits, Round-Ups, and Auto-Stack features make it easier than ever to stack sats.

Push to Card feature effectively allows you to live on a Bitcoin Standard, holding your purchasing power in BTC and instantly converting to USD when necessary to spend.

Been using Fold for years now and they just keep getting better.

Dennis Porter of https://www.satoshiaction.io/ reports that at least 13 states are working on legislation to establish a "Bitcoin Strategic Reserve"...

It's happening, isn't it?

Yep, I've been at 175-185lbs for years and decided I want to bulk up yo break 200 for the first time in my life. Definitely gained strength, gymnastics stuff hasn't been affected too much, but I have felt slight drawback in cardio. Not terrible though, 2024 was the first time I've ever been able to do full Rx Murph. 2023 I did half Rx and took the vest off for the second half

Moved to a new town and started going to a new gym. I've started writing my own programming to save some money and because I feel comfortable doing so.

If it goes well and I get good results, I'll share my 3-month program for free. If not, I'll share what I feel I did wrong and adjust moving forward.

I'm not a certified personal trainer or coach, but I have been lifting weights for 13 years and doing CrossFit for 10 years, and was also a highly competitive karate athlete for 15 years.

Program consists of mixed modalities: Wendler-style strength building lifts, complimentary bodybuilding exercises, CrossFit-style Metcons and constantly varied skill work ranging from Olympic lifting to gymnastics movements. Limited only by available equipment in the gym.

Snatches today were feeling a little rusty, but feeling good overall. Can't wait to really get into it 💪

Happy New Year, NOSTR

I'm starting off the year with some major life changes, making my first mortgage payment today for example.

All the "new year new me" cliche bullshit aside, I hope everybody reading this kicks some ass in whatever endeavors they pursue and get the 2025 they deserve 🫡

My wife knocked it out of the park tonight.

Cooked some onions in the iron skillet, then added the steaks on the stove tops to sear before finishing in the oven. Then added those onions to the mashed potatoes. Also, some kick-ass asparagus with parmesan on the side 👌

I've been pretty quiet here lately.

Recently bought my first house. Wild ride.

Been spending much less time on the net, getting much more acquainted with the drill and hammer.

The wife and I love the house and the area we moved to, suits our needs and desires perfectly.

Been adjusting to the change in lifestyle, organizing and re-prioritizing all material belongings as well as where I choose to allocate time and effort.

Feels like I just hit the next level in this game of life.

I've spent all my skill points and completed a couple side quests, now it's time to get back to grinding

Many already do, but remain too fiat-minded to do anything about it.

Was recently telling a no-coiner buddy about the recent happenings in Bitcoin world and all he said was, "good for you, man. It's awesome you got into it a while ago and it's doing so well."

LIKE, WAKE UP AND JOIN ME BRUTHA! 🤦‍♂️

Bitcoiner Price Index - November 2024 Update

The latest update in Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, adjusted for Bitcoiners

Introduction

Welcome to this month's edition of the Bitcoiner Price Index, where we explore the evolving cost of living on a Bitcoin Standard. By adjusting the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) data from the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) for the price of Bitcoin, we aim to illustrate how the purchasing power of goods and services shifts in terms of BTC compared to USD. This index offers unique insight for those who measure their wealth in Bitcoin and seek to understand the long-term impact of currency debasement and market fluctuations on their daily expenses. Let's dive into the latest data and see how our purchasing power stacks up this month.

November CPI Update

According to the latest update via the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis on December 11, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.15 percent on a seasonally adjusted basis in November, the same increase as the previous 3 months.

The all items index increased 2.73 percent for the 12 months ending November, 2024.

Adjusting for Bitcoiners

While the Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services, it needs to be adjusted for those living on a Bitcoin Standard to reflect the cost of those goods and services relative to BTC.

The price of Bitcoin on 11/30/2024 was approximately $96,536.75.

The all items index measured in BTC fell -47.93% for the 12 month ending November, 2024.

I’d also like to note that the $96,536.75 price of BTC is +156.35% from $37,658.08 on 11/30/2023, one year ago. Looking back four years ago, it is +398.06% from $19,382.36 on 11/30/2020.

Trends

Including this data in my previous analysis of the last decade, the year-over-year trend in CPI remains steady at 0.04%, while the trend in BPI is now -0.18%. This suggests a slow but consistent increase in the cost of goods and services for those living on a US Dollar standard, and a gradual but accelerating decrease in costs for those living on a BTC standard.

It is worth noting that there are extremely sharp increases in BPI seen in 2015, 2019, and 2023, but despite this, the average year-over-year % change in costs of goods and services for Bitcoiners is still decreasing at over 4x the rate that prices are increasing in USD terms.

Stop looking at the charts and get to work

It appears Jason Lowery, author of Softwar, has deleted all recent tweets about advising the incoming administration on Bitcoin...

Are we about to see public acknowledgement of a "softwar" between nation-states?

The DoD recently pulled Softwar from circulation for review yet again, it is currently being resold on Amazon for 10x..
