performance since the 100k party

So, I recently learned that Nostr users are referred to as "Nostriches." I think that's awesome.

While thinking of ostriches may evoke images of an oddly shaped bird that buries its head in the sand (which is a myth), I think it's much more positive.

Nostriches don't bury their head in ignorance. Instead they:

* Keep their head down - flying under the radar

* Stay humble - respecting others and their path

* Stay focused - not distracted by negativity and naysayers

* Stay private - not making themselves a target

* Stay strong - not wavering in their convictions and beliefs

* Stay connected - supporting others and the community

* Stay consistent - stacking Sats and furthering the acceptance of Bitcoin

I think Nostriches are amazing and I'm happy to be here among them.

God bless you all

For to us a child is born,
    to us a son is given,
    and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
    Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Merry Christmas to me 💜🎄🧡

Totally agree @jack

Most recorded deaths are people that died *with* covid.

—Ed Dowd’s and Brett Weinstein’s work in this area is enlightening. With all the incentives, hospitals simply cranked up the cycles on the PCR tests, nobody will ever know how many people actually died *of* Covid.

The vast majority died because of the protocol:

- Ventilate patients early

- Use Remdesivir ($9 cost, $2,700 markup) *widely known to be deadly

- Refuse ivermectin, HCQ, vitamin D, zinc etc

- Sedated people to death

Then the PREP Act made sure nobody could be sued.

Bitcoiners view the world differently.

Skiing/Snowboarding in Colorado was no different.

Say NO to Epic & Ikon

Read below 👇🏼

Broken money made housing unaffordable (60% vacancy with an average home price 1.5-2.5M), lift tickets insanely expensive, 30 minute ski lift wait times, expensive paid parking, shitty food. Oh, you want a private lesson, shell out $950.00. A day lift tickets, $325.00. The secret sauce for these conglomerates: get you to buy a season pass before snow season starts. Now they have your money and they industrialized a sacred sport of hanging n banging. All they care about is shareholder value. This is why in 2024/2025 the employees at Park City went on strike due to shitty wages.

The locals can no longer afford living in their, once small ski villages.

Check this out 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Alterra (Ikon) owns 60 ski destinations

Vail resorts (Epic) own 42 ski destinations

The ski resorts I remember as a kid vibed hard, great food, no lines, $20 dollar lift tickets. It was a place for families to get outside, play in the snow, and build memories.

Next season, 2026/2027 I’m only supporting independent ski resorts. Albeit, the Epic Pass for military in 2025/2026 was only $190.00 / person. Insanely cheap, but less than 1% of the American population has access to this massive discount.

Just as we can opt out of all fiat games, skiing/snowboarding is no different.

Two mentions during my discovery in Breckenridge:

1. The locals hate the epic system

2. Ski / snowboard instructor receive the highest hourly wage in the region; $61-$110 per hour. Still shitty. Minimum wage should be at least $190.00 or higher. Minimum wage in 1971 was a $1.60 when gold was $37.00 / oz. Now gold is sitting around $4,200 ish.

The current minimum wage doesn’t math out.

Hot Thanksgiving Take: Weight loss drugs will have way more impact than AI over the next 10 years.

Even Hotter Take: AI is a much bigger bubble than Bitcoin ever was.

Our God is a gracious and forgiving God. He is eager to show mercy and love. If we will only turn to him and repent of the evil we have done, he will forgive our sins and heal our land. Even the land is wounded and injured by our sin, but God is able to reverse any damage we have done. This is a promise from a God who never lies. But it begins with us – HIS people.

The Sovereign Individual thesis is playing out

Human and economic capital will flow to where it can be most sovereign

Tennessee is leading the way

-THE BORACAY ISLAND LIFE-

I Thought I Had Time…

They always say it after the fact:

“I wish I bought more.”

“I didn’t think it would move that fast.”

“I thought I had time.”

But the moment always feels the same:

Cheap. Boring. Skippable.

Until it’s not.

Until 1 million sats isn’t $1000.

It’s $5,000.

Then $50,000.

And by then?

Everyone’s awake, and it’s already expensive.

Right now, sats are still dirt cheap.

Not because they’re worthless…

But because the fiat system hasn’t collapsed visibly yet.

But when it does?

When banks freeze, markets crack, and inflation finally screams loud enough to be undeniable…

The window slams shut.

And the quiet opportunity you had?

Gone.

See, here’s the thing most people don’t get:

Value doesn’t wait for consensus.

Scarcity doesn’t send reminders.

Sovereignty doesn’t go on sale twice.

When it’s obvious to the crowd, the leverage is gone.

The upside is priced in.

The sats are locked up.

This is exactly what happened with:

📦 Amazon: when it was just a “bookstore”

📱 Apple: when it was “too expensive”

₿ Bitcoin: when it was $100, then $1,000, then $10,000…

And it’s happening again, right now.

Except this time, the unit is smaller.

Quieter.

More accessible.

And most people still aren’t paying attention.

Sats feel cheap today because fiat still works on the surface.

But the deeper you look, the more you realize:

The dollar is dying in slow motion.

The system is breaking from the inside.

And 20,000 sats a day is still a winning play.

But not forever.

Because the last time sats felt this cheap…

People laughed at the stackers.

And now?

They’re wondering how they missed it again.

Stack while it’s quiet.

Stack while it’s ignored.

Stack before “normal people” can’t anymore.

Stay early, stack sats, stay humble.

Auroras tonight. They were hard to see, especially if it wasn't dark enough and your eyes aren't adjusted, but the camera brought out the colors wonderfully. We're having unusual red/pink auroras.

bitcoin slop enjoyers said bitcoin would be dead by now 🤔

My 2 month old son is holding my right pointer finger and just started sucking and licking the side of my hand, the part that goes to my thumb on that hand. It feels so weird!!! 🤣 Apparently, he is "craving hands".

I need a new chainsaw… should I spend the money for a gas-powered Stihl MS 261 chainsaw or just get one of those electric ones and call it a day? #asknostr

Hitting the road next spring!

3 local bookstores now carrying Future Proof (and two carrying Intro to Bitcoin). In all 3 stores, these are their only Bitcoin books. 💪📚

Exactly 3 years ago today, Elon Musk and Tesla sold ~30,000 #Bitcoin for $900k

Worth $3 BILLION today.

I got to see and once again thank the creator of the awesome, open-source SeedSigner technology.🚀😁
