It was great to meet you too, Briskit!
It is indeed a double edged sword. It is a fundamental part of staying safe, for our minds to take rational and logical shortcuts based on our previous experience - but can also make us quick cast erroneous aspersion.
Without, as you mentioned, taking the time to reflect, we are likely to take the same shortcuts without understanding why - without being curious, we inevitably become comfortable in our ignorance, wilfully or no.
I want there to be enough crazy in Bitcoin that the price of Sats is cheap, but not so much that no one wants to touch it.
Iām not sure where that line is.
Be curious, not judgemental.
An interesting insight into how Australian Banks operate.

Exactly. Because trust is the fundamental basis of WoT systems, it inherently results in bias and tribalism.
Bitcoin works because no trust is required.
People struggle with shades of grey.l, dismissing important nuances that result in cognitive dissonance.
How are you asking questions?
Not for kings, not for glory.
My experience with WoT was issues around tribal agenda-pushing, specifically around medical claims/pseudoscience.
Popularism.
The most entertaining, or the most popular response/idea by the subset of the population that is surveyed, and from that a subset, responds, wins out.
Itās not about what is true - but what is agree upon. We might very well agree that chocolate is the most healthy thing to eat, but of course - the truth, dies with that consensus if the idea is treated as objectively true.
This is problematic when people voting on things are not making informed decisions, either through ignorance or arrogance.
Itās a culmination of how the Dunning-Kruger effect affects the lives of others.
Problematically, it leads to popularism - there is no method to determine matter experts, therefore confidence is impacted.
Triple-kill.
Orange-pilled three people at one table today, one of them being a bank worker.
All after having a meet-up with a bitcoiner about building #Bitcoin things, while wearing one of my Bitcoin shirts.

The less trust in a bank and the banking system, the higher the likelihood of a run on a bank, and the system in general.
You gotta ask yourself - do you trust your bank?
Do you think other people trust their bank?
This is why #bitcoin

Whatās the lightest way to sell small files via bitcoin? (Such as .stl)
Any way to encode the data into Nostr and sell access?

Refreshing.
You moved fast on that one! š
I like that itās a very IYKYK design.
Should that text be on the back, or under the SMBF?
I was trying to think who would the text be for - considered having āSelf Managed Bitcoin Fundā under the SMBF (with the āBitcoinā also in orange) but thought it was too obvious? I suppose that works to be less subtle.
But in terms of a compelling tagline? Maybe āSecuring Your Financial Freedomā? Also seems a little less apocalyptic? š unless that is the plan?! Haha
