One of the most difficult things about making music with Bitcoin-related themes is achieving depth and authenticity beyond mere propaganda for BTC.

If the message is reduced to a simplistic "Bitcoin is good, Fiat is bad" narrative, it risks coming off as shallow, simplistic and repetitive.

People who listen to music crave emotional resonance, compelling stories, and a sense of humanity in the whole thingโ€”something more nuanced than just an economic argument.

Bitcoin is not just a financial tool; it represents a complex philosophy, a movement driven by diverse motivations: freedom, empowerment, resistance to centralized authority, and hope for a better future.

These elements can't be effectively captured in songs that are purely preachy or promotional.

Instead, music must explore the deep personal, social, and existential struggles connected to the adoption of Bitcoin.

For instance, the hardships people face under inflationary economies, the sense of alienation from traditional financial systems, or the challenge of breaking away from conventional ideasโ€”all of these experiences provide a profound backdrop.

By weaving these elements into songs, musicians can evoke the emotions, sacrifices, and hopes of those inside and outside the Bitcoin community.

Moreover, there's also the challenge of representing Bitcoinโ€™s ethos in a way that is inclusive and relatable.

Bitcoin often has a reputation as something reserved for the wealthy or technically inclined, but itโ€™s crucial to convey that it's a tool for everyone, especially those marginalized by traditional systems.

Achieving this without being overly idealistic or propagandistic requires telling real stories of struggle and triumphโ€”something the audience can deeply connect with.

Thus, the true challenge is to craft music that doesn't merely preach but instead reveals, to make the audience feel the meaning of financial sovereignty and the battles fought for economic freedom.

Itโ€™s about sharing experiences and ideas in a way that moves people emotionally, which is far more impactful than simply presenting a list of why Bitcoin is great.

Why I started Sovereign Landing

I've been location independent for over 8 years. Nomadic lifestyle isn't easy, but Sovereign Landing solves my biggest pain...

During these 8 years, at times I've attempted to have just one permanent base. Every time I try, reality seems to start sending me subtle or not-so-subtle hints that I shouldn't even be trying that... so I'm now leaning 100% into a semi-mobile lifestyle - permanently.

I'm not constantly moving around because that would be just a ton of wasted energy, but I'm not living anywhere permanently either. A few different places per year.

This comes with some issues of course. Nomadic lifestyle is especially challenging over the long term - most people who try this just give up. Many find lack of community the worst aspect, but I've never really cared about that - my communities have always been online.

What I personally find the most difficult is the actual moving - having to find a new apartment in a new country, and setting it up. That's tolerable to do maybe once, but the frustration compounds over time.

This happened again in the beginning of 2024. I was busy with life and knew I wanted to go to Tbilisi, Georgia, so I did. I just thought I'd get a temporary Airbnb while I find an actual longer-term rental. Should be easy, right?

Well, it's never that simple, and that hit me once again when I started the apartment hunting process. I remembered vividly what absolute drain of energy it is. It usually means weeks of focus destroyed.

That's true even if you hire local help, as that hiring process by itself can be long and arduous! If the first person you hire can't get the job done (somewhat likely!) you have to start from scratch - fffffuuuuu...

I did find a good reliable local person in Tbilisi (Nina), and during her apartment hunting I just couldn't help thinking "if this thing here and that thing there was done slightly differently, this could be like 10-100x easier". These things kept popping up in my head.

Nina was working as a real estate agent part time, and when she mentioned that she could have time for more customers, I just put 1+1+1 together.

I know something about online marketing. Nina is an expert on the local market. And I'm definitely an expert on taking sort-of-functional processes, ripping them apart and turning them into great customer experiences. That's how the idea of Sovereign Landing got started!

I've been building this project primarily with myself as the primary customer avatar, but it's now high time to start getting some market feedback from OTHER people - preferably customers! ๐Ÿ˜€

I'd highly appreciate it if you can check out the site and let me hear your thoughts?

This is brilliant...

Almost makes me wish I were single and free to nomad for a few years...๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Your website looks good.

Good luck!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’–

And a cheery Good Morning to you, Friend!๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿซ‚๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ‘

And, now I'm compelled to ask; as a part-time adult, What do you do with the rest of your time?๐Ÿค”๐Ÿง๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚โ”

Or, alternatively...

Learn about and come to rely on the kind intentions of Jesus, the God who created you, by reading about him in the widely available book that John wrote:
