Most folks will not lose their Bitcoin to a $5 wrench attack, or a sophisticated hacker. They'll lose it due to carelessness or poor planning. Keep it simple sovereign. Crawl. Walk. Run. nostr:npub1g8c2v60x85wklha2vg573rqk43tqnck8znqvkem4e22ten0hgfgshztzkl

Simulation Sunday my favorite day of the week. Today we talk about the shape and the purpose of the simulation. That leads us to the adversary, the archon, the accuser. What Jason calls Artificial Intelligence X. That adversary is part of the simulation. Don't confuse the adversary with the enemy. https://youtu.be/xjrtW99jtqc
Perplexity told me, "The bitcoin citadel remains primarily a myth, meme and commentary on wealth inequality and the culture around Bitcoin rather than a mainstream movement or widely accepted future".
I say the Bitcoin economy was shitposted into existence and the Bitcoin Citadel will be as well. Citadels are about community and mutual security. Now is the time to find the ones you want to build the future with. https://youtu.be/jU5-fxY4waA
Say what you want about the man. RFK Jrs Bitcoin 2023 keynote at BTC2023 in Miami was epic. The crowd went wild. Listen to the end. The part of Bitcoin and the energy grid is a grand vision indeed.
Proof of work is at the heart of the Bitcoin network. It's really the secret sauce. Bitcoin unlocks energy. It is the booster rocket for moving humanity up the Kardeshev scale. Harnessing and controlling energy IS the key to economic prosperity.
There will be signals. There will be signs. Will you be able to read and interpret them? It begins with knowing yourself, and learning to trust yourself.
Everybody creates. https://youtu.be/h1NcFYUS3uA
This is the era when everybody creates. Find your thing, and do your thing to the best of your ability. In the information age everybody is a star. Every company is a media company. All of the finer things are denominated in Bitcoin. Don't wait. Get started now.
Free market capitalism has not failed. We've never even seen it in the wild. Bitcoin will be the foundation of true free market capitalism in the golden age that is now dawning. Act now. Get your hands on some Bitcoin. Learn how to hold it. The good things will not be for sale in fiat currency.
The ouroboros is an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon eating its own tail, forming a circle. It represents cycles of renewal, eternal return, and the unity of beginning and end. Symbolically, the ouroboros embodies concepts of infinity, wholeness, and the interdependence of destruction and creation: as it consumes itself, it is both dying and being reborn. Ultimately, the ouroboros reminds us that endings and beginnings are intertwined, and all things are connected in an endless cycle. It is the shape of the simulation.
WW3 is a psychological and economic war. You're on the front line. You win by getting rich holding Bitcoin. All of the things worth buying after WW3 will be priced in Bitcoin. The only way to hold Bitcoin is in self custody cold storage. Don't get caught with none in your bag.
Preparation is superior to planning because it turns intentions into action, fosters adaptability, and exposes hidden weaknesses before they become failures. While planning is crucial for direction, only preparation ensures you’re equipped to carry out those plans in the face of real-world surprises.
"By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail." —Benjamin Franklin
"Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth." —Mike Tyson Bitcoin class of '13
WW3 is a psychological and information war. It's been raging since at least 2020. Unlike WW1 and WW2 the combatants in WW3 are not nations states, rather nation states vs. their own citizens. Know your enemy. Plan accordingly. https://youtu.be/UMs30lI-YAo
The beginning of your Bitcoin journey is pretty scary. The volatility of the Bitcoin price is scary. Taking custody of your keys for the first time is scary. It can feel like walking on a tight rope without a safety net. Stay humble. Stack sats. Find the others. Don't overthink it.
Simulation Sunday. A bit of a rambling rant on simulation theory. I touch on the four divine gifts granted us by the creator to survive and thrive in this realm: Humor, Empathy, Imagination and Intuition.

Sun's up. Bitcoin is running.
As I post this we're still in the golden age of Bitcoin. Believe it or not future people we can still trade fiat currency for the best money ever invented. In this video I share some thoughts about buying Bitcoin. nostr:npub1g8c2v60x85wklha2vg573rqk43tqnck8znqvkem4e22ten0hgfgshztzkl
Thanks God for Friday. Friday is the last day of the working week. It's payday for a lot of folks. Shoot when the industrial age was ramping up most folks got paid in cash every Friday. For some it meant the beginning of a couple of days off from a job they hated. That kept them away from their family. That kept them away from home.
But before the industrial age Friday was something else entirely. In the information age with the separation of money and state in the world Bitcoin ushers into existence after the fiat apocalypse some of the old meaning and magic will return to the days of the week.
The foundation of KYC/AML (Know Your Customer/Anti-Money Laundering) was laid down by the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) of 1970. Just one year before Nixon closed the Gold window and ushered in the current Fiat money age.
Don't be fooled by the window dressing. KYC is not about stopping money laundering or terrorism financing. It's about making it easier for creditors to collect on defaults. It's because settlement takes days, weeks or months in the current system. Bitcoin fixes this. KYC does not survive the fiat apocalypse. Nor do nation states. Stack sats.

There are no new ideas in Bitcoin. Everything Bitcoiners talk about today was hashed out on the Bitcointalk forum in the day. HODLing is what Bitcoiners do when the price drops. HODL and ODELL's "STAY HUMBLE, STACK SATS" are all the 80 IQ Pleb needs to succeed in Bitcoin.
Now in 2025 Bitcoin is becoming financialized. Can an 80 IQ Pleb take advantage of Bitcoin's transformation into pristine collateral to generate an income, or to buy a home and still HODL? It remains to be seen. I'm very interested in what People's Reserve is offering the the US.
Nation states as we know them will not exist by the end of the next #Bitcoin epoch with the possible exception of China. nostr:npub1g8c2v60x85wklha2vg573rqk43tqnck8znqvkem4e22ten0hgfgshztzkl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gANHxOpTIQY
