When Bitcoiner’s go to dinner together the biggest OG pays.

Often the innovation that was the printing press gets rolled out as an inflection point in history

Why? Power to the people. Of course. But what if those machines got corrupted?

It struck me today that Nostr has the potential to be something just as important

With a populace now largely literate, & internet access improving, digital censorship-resistance is a massive proposition

No doubt it’s a critical piece of the puzzle in the sound money (Bitcoin) enabled digital renaissance

#Bitcoin fixes this.

Ya’ll want Nostr Lyn to write a sci fi novel in whatever spare time she has, or get back to finance?

What do we call people that trade strong things for weaker things?

The professional side of me is fully focused on finance. It’s tiring, but I’m there every day.

The Nostr Lyn side of me keeps broadening her timeframe and keeps getting pulled to write a science fiction or fantasy novel, at this point, with all sorts of character arcs and cultural symbolism tied in. Which is almost too long of a time preference.

I wonder if a side hobby is what is needed to keep me focused on my main work. I used to have hobbies years ago, but the extreme environment of 2020-2022 kind of killed them as things went crazy and I did nothing but work. During 2023 and 2024 I explored if I should have hobbies again, but I kept focused on work, and here now I’ve determined that I should explore more.

I boosted my exercise, traveled the world, and re-explored video games. But the video games didn’t stick. Re-exploring my older writing is sticking.

Lately I’ve been trying to explore hobbies, to replicate a normal human. And writing weird sci fi or fantasy is what keeps me engaged.

ONLY THE RIDE OR DIES MATTER.

TOGETHER WE WILL CHANGE THE WORLD FOR THE BETTER.

We used to be a proper society.

Lmao so its not just me then. He even *sounds* like him a bit.

Good morning and pura vida, Nostr! It's time to create notes and send zaps! 🫂🤙🏻💜

bitcoin culture is a movable feast.

At its core, this quote speaks to the importance of hindsight. As we journey through life, we accumulate a wealth of experiences—some joyous, others painful. It is often only in retrospect that we can truly grasp the significance of these moments. We learn from our mistakes, celebrate our successes, and gain insights that shape our understanding of ourselves and the world around us. This reflective process allows us to connect the dots, to see patterns, and to derive meaning from our past.

The balance between understanding our past and embracing our future is essential for personal growth. By reflecting on our experiences, we can make informed decisions that guide us on our path. Yet, we must also cultivate the courage to step into the unknown, to take risks, and to pursue our dreams, even when the outcome is uncertain.

Fiat mining is a great strategy for many

Keep up the hustle!

My bet: it’s not a skills thing that is holding you back, more a function of time, & purchasing power increasing

My father died as a young man, and I received an inheritance, which after 15 years of managing have realised bitcoin is the solution

Ie I had a helping hand by being given capital

Saying that? HODLing btc is a whole different ball game to tradfi, so I now actually control my time much better, as there’s so much less management involved
