If your answer to the question "What men really want?" is Loyalty, you're a boy, a child who seeks mother love.

1- Own your data

2- Control you algorithm

3- Earn bitcoin

LIVE FREE OR DIE TRYING

Yes, but more generally we need more people to buy stuff with Bitcoin. People always complain about merchant adoption, etc but if no one is willing to spend sats, then what incentive do merchants have to accept Bitcoin in the first place.

Bitcoin used as medium of exchange, P2P is the killer feature imo.

-THE BITCOIN ISLAND LIFE-

In a world obsessed with positivity and success, Mark Manson’s The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fck* delivers a refreshing wake-up call.

Instead of chasing endless happiness, he argues that true freedom comes from choosing what truly deserves your attention and letting go of the rest.

The book challenges conventional self-help advice, urging readers to embrace failure, pain, and struggle as essential parts of a meaningful life. By shifting focus from superficial success to deep values and personal responsibility, Manson presents a counterintuitive yet liberating approach to happiness and fulfillment.

10 Lessons from the Book

1. Choose Your Struggles Wisely

Happiness doesn’t come from avoiding problems but from picking the right problems to solve. Instead of chasing comfort, focus on meaningful challenges that align with your values.

2. You Only Have So Many F*cks to Give

Your time and energy are limited. Stop wasting them on things that don’t matter—social validation, status, or petty worries. Be intentional about what you care about.

3. The Pursuit of Happiness is a Trap

Trying too hard to be happy often backfires. Instead of obsessing over happiness, accept that suffering is part of life and find fulfillment through purpose, growth, and resilience.

4. Failure is the Foundation of Growth

The more you fail, the more you learn. Every success is built on failure, so embrace mistakes as stepping stones rather than fearing them.

5. You Are Not Special—And That’s Okay

Believing you’re exceptional can lead to entitlement and unrealistic expectations. Accepting that you are average in most things helps you focus on improving what actually matters.

6. Uncertainty is Power

The ability to say “I don’t know” is a strength. Being open to learning, changing, and growing makes you more adaptable and wise. Certainty is often an illusion.

7. Responsibility Over Victimhood

You may not control everything that happens to you, but you are always responsible for your response. Taking ownership of your life leads to empowerment and real change.

8. Saying No is More Important Than Saying Yes

Defining what you stand for means rejecting distractions, toxic relationships, and meaningless goals. Saying “no” allows you to say “yes” to what truly matters.

9. Death is the Ultimate Motivator

Recognizing your mortality puts everything into perspective. Instead of wasting time on trivial concerns, invest in relationships, passions, and values that outlast you.

10. Stop Seeking Approval and Start Living Authentically

Caring too much about others' opinions leads to anxiety and inauthenticity. True freedom comes from living in alignment with your core values, even if it means disappointing others.

The essence of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fck* isn’t about apathy—it’s about caring deeply, but only about what truly matters. When you let go of external pressures and embrace struggle, failure, and imperfection, you unlock a life of meaning, freedom, and fulfillment.

Remember, power lies in numbers. There are a lot more of us (average citizens) than there are of them (financiers and politicians). This is not a red-versus-blue thing; it’s an us-versus-them thing: average citizens against entrenched financial and political elites. They are the ones who have reason to be concerned. We outnumber them, and together, we can demand and achieve meaningful change.

If Bitcoin becomes a widely accepted collateral asset, it could drive demand and increase its value, as more institutions integrate it into traditional finance, reducing sell pressure and reinforcing its role even further as a store of value.

In just a few months, you’ll be able to deposit Bitcoin into your bank and take out a fiat loan against it. When that happens, a $1M Bitcoin won’t be far off.

When it comes to AI, philosophical people often ask "What will happen to people if they lack work? Will they find it hard to find meaning in such a world of abundance?"

But there is a darker side to the question, which people intuit more than they say aloud.

In all prior technological history, new technologies changed the nature of human work but did not displace the need for human work. The fearful rightly ask: what happens if we make robots, utterly servile, that can outperform the majority of humans at most tasks with lower costs? Suppose they displace 70% or 80% of human labor to such an extent that 70% or 80% of humans cannot find another type of economic work relative to those bots.

Now, the way I see it, it's a lot harder to replace humans than most expect. Datacenter AI is not the same as mobile AI; it takes a couple more decades of Moore's law to put a datacenter supercomputer into a low-energy local robot, or it would otherwise rely on a sketchy and limited-bandwidth connection to a datacenter. And it takes extensive physical design and programming which is harder than VC bros tend to suppose. And humans are self-repairing for the most part, which is a rather fantastic trait for a robot. A human cell outcompetes all current human technology in terms of complexity. People massively over-index what robots are capable of within a given timeframe, in my view. We're nowhere near human-level robots for all tasks, even as we're close to them for some tasks.

But, the concept is close enough to be on our radar. We can envision it in a lifetime rather than in fantasy or far-off science fiction.

So back to my prior point, the darker side of the question is to ask how humans will treat other humans if they don't need them for anything. All of our empathetic instincts were developed in a world where we needed each other; needed our tribe. And the difference between the 20% most capable and 20% least capable in a tribe wasn't that huge.

But imagine our technology makes the bottom 20% economic contributes irrelevant. And then the next 20%. And then the next 20%, slowly moving up the spectrum.

What people fear, often subconsciously rather than being able to articulate the full idea, is that humanity will reach a point where robots can replace many people in any economic sense; they can do nothing that economicall outcomes a bot and earns an income other than through charity.

And specifically, they wonder what happens at the phase when this happens regarding those who own capital vs those that rely on their labor within their lifetimes. Scarce capital remains valuable for a period of time, so long as it can be held legally or otherwise, while labor becomes demonetized within that period. And as time progresses, weak holders of capital who spend more than they consume, also diminish due to lack of labor, and many imperfect forms of capital diminish. It might even be the case that those who own the robots are themselves insufficient, but at least they might own the codes that control them.

Thus, people ultimately fear extinction, or being collected into non-economic open-air prisons and given diminishing scraps, resulting in a slow extinction. And they fear it not from the robots themselves, but from the minority of humans who wield the robots.

Any country that adopts bitcoin and has enemies and no allies would get invaded by a fiat country. I’ll keep saying it until people start listening

No government that has relied on being able to print money to fund war efforts like France has done throughout history would ever relinquish that power by allowing hard currency. And they’d be right not to- any modern power that gave this up would be unable to reliably fund it’s military, leaving its people open to invasion.

what if wokeness wasnt a spontaneous emergence of a cultural ideology? while this probably happened to some degree, what if the primary driver of wokeness was US Intelligence and the FBI seeking to use it to split Occupy Wall St, and associated movements, into opposing factions using psychological operations?

And what if, after its success in taking down Occupy, and the repeal of Smith Mundt, what if 5 Eyes and Mosaad through the capture of corporate social media, began using wokeness as a regime change weapon against their own citizens for the express purpose of suppressing populism? If this were the case, there would be evidence of wokeness being used as a regime change weapon in other countries. Oh wait there is.

And there would be evidence in USAID spending of funding woke ideology, and mass censorship of domestic populations.

Oh wait, there is.

And the last bit of evidence would be a long history of Intel agencies using faction creation and infighting as a primary psychological weapon to undermine and neutralize grassroots movements which opposed State Department objectives.

oh wait. there is. 🤷

How many nodes are running right now around the world?

I know we can't know the exact number, but a good faith estimate?

Yes, I am the author! I'm glad you found it useful, inspiring, and actionable. Salute 🥃

Paying with lightning is so cool and like 99% of the world doesn’t know it lol

Overly complicated proposals for fiat and crypto payment bullshit, when there are so many great lightning products that just work.

-THE BITCOIN BORACAY ISLAND LIFE-

This is the impressive La Jument Lighthouse, a solitary guardian in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Brittany, France. Built in 1911, it stands on a rocky islet known as Ar-Gazec, where the ocean's fierce waves crash relentlessly during storms.

This lighthouse gained fame thanks to an iconic photograph by Jean Guichard, capturing a monumental wave engulfing the structure while the lighthouse keeper stood at the door. Located in one of the most perilous maritime passages, it symbolizes human resilience against the raw power of nature.
