₿ is not just money. It’s an idea💡An unstoppable one like trying to hold back the wind with your hands 💨💨 I’m on Nostr because I love freedom and reject censorship. Freedom of thought. Freedom of speech. Freedom to live outside the system 🏴‍☠️ If you’re done obeying, we’re already aligned ⚡️⛓️ #Bitcoin #Freedom #Uncensorable

Hi HODL 😉🤟🏴‍☠️ True growth comes from questioning the status quo. The most successful and fulfilled people often embrace ideas that society dismisses until they’re proven right. Conformity might feel safe, but it rarely leads to greatness.

🚀 NOSTR FEEDBACK TIME! 🚀

Alright Nostr fam, let’s do something useful today! 💡🔥

What are the top things you’d improve or add to Nostr to make it even better? 🛠️ What features do we need? What’s missing? Let’s create a solid list of pros & cons to help devs shape the future of this amazing decentralized social network.

No limits go wild! Drop your ideas below! 👇⚡

I just got back from my daughter's baptism! It was a fantastic day 🤩⛪️🍾🥂🍰 I thank all friends and relatives and of course I wish the best to my beautiful little girl. Now I'm dead tired and I'm going to bed soon that tomorrow morning I have a shift at the steel plant at 5 a.m. and i love ₿

Yes i agree bro 😉🤟🏴‍☠️

🇮🇹 ITALY: SMALL COUNTRY, HUGE BITCOIN COMMUNITY! ⚡

In Italy, we’re often behind on many things sometimes years behind the U.S. But when it comes to Bitcoin, we’re light-years ahead! 🚀

Despite being a small country, we have a high concentration of world-class Bitcoiners developers, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders who are shaping the global Bitcoin space. 🇮🇹⚡

For once, I feel like Italy has nothing to envy from bigger nations when it comes to ₿ adoption, expertise, and innovation. Proud to be part of this movement!

Who else thinks Italy is a powerhouse in the Bitcoin revolution? 💪🔥

What do you think is the best hardware wallet in circulation and to what? I'm curious about the answers 🏴‍☠️⚡️

Hi john 😉🤟🏴‍☠️ nice to meet you 🤝

You raise a crucial point criticizing existing systems is easy, but we need to think critically about the alternatives we create. A privatized TSA might remove some of the inefficiencies of government bureaucracy, but it could also introduce an entirely new set of risks, particularly around data privacy, corporate overreach, and lack of accountability.

AI-driven risk ratings sound efficient in theory, but as we’ve seen in other industries, they often lead to opaque, unchallengeable black-box decisions that disproportionately harm certain groups. And once a company accumulates vast pools of personal data, the temptation to monetize it or the risk of it being compromised becomes almost inevitable.

History suggests that privatized security firms wouldn’t necessarily be better at preventing breaches or respecting civil liberties. Instead, they could end up operating with even less transparency and oversight than government agencies. The key question is: how do we build a security model that balances efficiency, accountability, and privacy, rather than simply replacing one flawed system with another that could be even worse?

Replying to Avatar rabble

I had an interesting conversation at a friend’s birthday party with a few folks who were professionals but had been unemployed and looking for work for a while. I pointed out that with AI rapidly improving, many of the jobs that have been cut likely aren’t coming back.

They dismissed AI entirely as just a cheap imitation. Their experience was limited to trying ChatGPT over a year ago and seeing some clumsy early attempts by the New Zealand government to use AI. For them, that was enough evidence to label the whole field as an overhyped, short-lived scam.

It shocked me because, from my perspective, AI has been advancing incredibly quickly. I use these tools regularly in my work, and with a bit of focus on learning them properly, these emerging large language models (LLMs) are truly transformational. On top of that, innovation is accelerating rapidly, making AI both smarter and more accessible.

I’m not sure if we’ll reach AGI or ASI anytime soon, but it’s clear to me that society and our economy will be fundamentally transformed by AI.

This conversation reminded me just how much of a bubble technologists can live in. We see AI’s potential clearly and understand how quickly things can spread once they reach a tipping point. But most people probably won’t believe this transformation is real until it’s already underway. Instead of traditional economic institutions adapting their ways of working to integrate AI, we’ll likely see new institutions and methods emerge to replace the legacy systems entirely.

I’m genuinely concerned about how our economy will cope with the decoupling of work from primary economic systems. And when I think about how to spend my time while waiting for even more powerful AI tools—beyond just experimenting in my own work—I’m uncertain. Part of the answer seems to be designing new systems from the ground up around AI, and also continuing to tell people that AI isn’t just a passing trend.

This situation isn’t fundamentally different from what happened with Web 2.0 platforms like Twitter. The core human needs remained the same, but new technologies changed how we fulfilled those needs. Twitter didn’t replace our desire to stay connected with friends; it just made it faster and broadened our definition of who could be a “friend.”

So, looking forward, I think we need to ask ourselves: what would an AI-native version of everything we currently use look like? Most people and institutions won’t adapt—they’ll more likely be replaced. Does that mean we should just rush headlong into replacing everything with AI-driven alternatives?

Happy sunday rabble 😉🤟🏴‍☠️

You make an excellent point about the disconnect between the rapid advancements in AI and how many people perceive it, especially those outside the tech bubble. The skepticism you encountered is not surprising many people still equate AI with clunky, early-stage technology. But, as you’ve pointed out, the reality is that AI has progressed incredibly fast, and its impact is already being felt in many fields. The economic implications of AI are huge, and the way we think about work, value, and even society itself will have to shift.

I agree that we might not see AGI anytime soon, but the transition to an AI-driven world is happening, and we’re only beginning to scratch the surface. The key challenge will be how we adapt existing institutions and systems to accommodate this new reality. It’s not just about replacing jobs it’s about redesigning economic structures that are less dependent on traditional labor. As you mentioned, this could lead to the creation of entirely new systems.

The analogy with Web 2.0 is insightful. Just as social media didn’t replace the human need for connection but redefined how we connect, AI will redefine how we work, learn, and interact. It’s a transformation that might seem distant to many, but once it reaches a tipping point, it could rapidly change everything. Rather than rushing into replacing everything with AI-driven alternatives, we need to think carefully about the broader societal shifts and how to navigate them. This is about creating an ecosystem where AI enhances human potential, not just displaces it.

Hi HODL 😉🤟🏴‍☠️ happy sunday! I see your point, and it’s a chilling thought. The line between genuine innovation and inflated claims could easily blur, especially with the stakes as high as they are. While true AGI may still be far off, the narrative around it could be manipulated to push certain agendas or create fear for control. It’s like a modern-day “Wizard of Oz,” where the real power lies in the perception, not the reality. The challenge is discerning what’s truly groundbreaking from what’s just smoke and mirrors.

Hi erik 😉🤟🏴‍☠️ happy sunday🤝

Nostr is proof that social media doesn’t have to be an engagement-maximizing, dopamine-draining echo chamber. No shadowbans, no manipulation just pure, unfiltered interaction. The more people realize what’s happening on traditional platforms, the more they’ll seek alternatives like this.

Happy sunday! El Salvador is playing the long game while the IMF clings to a failing system. Nation-state level DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging) is a signal, not noise. In a decade, this will look like one of the smartest economic moves of our time.
