When I see a intellectual people NOT understand Bitcoin, what is often preventing them from “getting it”, is a deeply held, core belief that the world is spiraling out of control and can’t get better. Because of this pessimistic conviction, it’s almost like it’s impossible for them to wrap their head around it. It’s a very strange yet persistent theme.

This is not a joke. This is not a drill.

X is mayhem. Bots, propaganda, hatred, violence, state-level psyops, misinformation, and porn campaigns to surpress real news.

That's a normal day over there. Holy shit.

And what would #nostr use this space for?

“Why would anyone need to be anonymous online?”

“Why do you need private communications?”

“Why do you need privacy if you have nothing to hide?”

“WHY WOULD ANYONE NEED NOSTR?”

Imperialist Totalitarian teabags really outdoing themselves.

The Nikkei is gearing up for a big drop today (their Monday morning). We'll see how it closes, but it's seemingly the largest 2-day drop in Nikkei history given what happened on Friday.

There's a lot of financial plumbing stuff going on currently. As Japan hikes rates from -0.10% to now 0.25%, they're disrupting the global carry trade, where a lot of global capital is borrowed from Japan and elsewhere in Asia and stuffed into U.S. large cap stonks.

Bitcoin caught up.

“We imagine ourselves to be results of the past. And we’re always passing the buck over our shoulders. Like when God approached Adam in the Garden of Eden and said, ‘Hast thou eaten of the fruit of the tree whereof I told thee thou shouldst not eat?’ And Adam said, ‘This woman thou gavest me; she tempted me and I did eat.’ And God looked at Eve and said, ‘Hast thou eaten of the fruit of the tree whereof I told thee thou shoudst not eat?’ And she said, ‘The serpent beguiled me and I did eat!’ And God, out of the corner of his eye, looked at the serpent. The serpent said nothing.”
