new job starts today while it's the 1 year anniversary of Life with Bitcoin podcast. Wild!

Many, many bitcoiners still to this day say “you can’t be progressive and be a bitcoiner.”

Honestly, I can agree in part while also mainly disagreeing.

Many progressives that learn about bitcoin adjust their worldview and solutions a bit. But the value set doesn’t change, just the means to get to the end.

I, and many progressives, find out how deficit spending, MMT, and ineffective climate protests with no solutions won’t bring about the change we want and often make things worse.

Bitcoin is an incredible tool that progressives will find is incredibly powerful for marginalized communities that have been discriminated against by Wall Street and the big banks, working class folks with no solution to financial sustainability in retirement, as a solution to profitable expansion or renewables and cleaning up otherwise wasted and flared gas, human rights use cases around the world, money for protestors and activists and beyond.

Bitcoin is changing hearts and minds for progressives that are open to it, and who have come to the realization that politicians and our government is not here to save us. But, we can reign in their power and influence, while the game theory plays out and some of these progressive politicians pivot to the will of the people.

I will do my damndest to help progressives see the hope and potential in Bitcoin, because it’s not enough for just Donald Trump and Republican bitcoiners to praise the technology. That would be a shame if it continues to grow more partisan.

This is a sea urchin and I have an interesting story with it:

My diving partner and I have an interesting tradition: whenever we go camping, we don't take food, just water. We only carry two speargun and depend on them to hunt what we are going to eat at sea.

At the beginning of this year, we went diving and, to our surprise, there were no fish. We dived all day, but found no fish fit to eat; they were either poisonous or very small.

At the end of the day, we were exhausted and hungry, when we finally found a place full of sea urchins. With no other option, we had to collect some sea urchins to survive that day.

We seasoned it with soy sauce and ate several. I was very scared of getting sick, but, to my happiness, I ended up okay. 🤣

Black or white shirt friends?

It’s for a thumbnail about bitcoin (and crypto) in Turkey 🇹🇷

Personally I think black

Whenever you feel dumb, just remember that there are people who bought negative-yielding bonds.

Humid day in Austin. Can hardly see the buildings from afar. #atx

Post a Saylor meme again. I dare you. I double-dog dare you.

Just Fiat things.

More like they fight you, you win but they fight you again and you win again and but then they threaten WW3, Russia banning bitcoin, CBDCs, social credit scores, and then the ccp rise up and take over Alaska. Suddenly liberty prime emerges and lazers start shooting from his eyes. "BETTER DEAD THEN RED" 🫡
