Karma, getting what you deserve based on your actions. Seems like fair justice, at first.
Grace, getting what you do not deserve based on the actions of the Christ. But it is God, not man, who defines true justice.
The Father, whose Law we have broken and whose name we have dishonored, says that Christ is "put forth as the propitiation, by His blood, to be received by faith....This is to show God's righteousness at the present times, so that He might be just and the justifier of those who have faith in Jesus." Rom 3:25-26.
God is just. God is merciful. And God is good.
and now we know why MS shareholders voted 95% to not hold Bitcoin as an asset on their balance sheet. Because Uncle Bill told them not to. Same people that are on their 5th mRNA booster.

Love your teaching vids, Doc. There are a few recent podcast and articles on the downside of daily DCA and frequent withdrawals to cold storage. Small UXOs can get eaten up in transaction fees as “number goes up.” Look into that and consider lump withdrawals to cold storage. Lightning network vs on chain, etc. I got lots to learn, as well. Lump smash buys can be lucrative but the old saying is true, time in the market beats timing the market.
Yep. That checks out.
Same sh.. over here. More than 15 years in Banking.. but it took me until 2019/20 to fully understand Fiat money, MMT and fractional reserve banking. Bernie Madoff was an amateur..

Same! Political Science major (International Relations) from a “respected govt institution”, Masters Degree, advanced schooling and training in political development, organizational management, and essentially a minor in engineering. All education within the System. And I did not know anything about how money is created, how it works, and what our governments have done to it. I have learned more just from bloggers and podcasters in the Bitcoin space than years of academia. You guys rock. The series Bitcoin and the Bible, making the moral case for Bitcoin, was immensely helpful as a beginner to shed the political propaganda that Bitcoin was only for criminals or was inherently immoral. The opposite is true.

Today, I submitted a new BIP proposal for public review:
Redefinition of the Bitcoin into Buttcoin and using that as the Unit to the Base Denomination
Abstract
This BIP proposes redefining the commonly recognized "bitcoin" unit so that what was previously known as the smallest indivisible unit becomes "buttcoin". Under this proposal, one buttcoin is defined as that smallest unit, eliminating the need for decimal places. By making the integral unit the standard measure, this BIP aims to simplify user comprehension, reduce confusion, and align on-chain values directly with their displayed representation.
Also, by aligning Bitcoin's brand with one of its most vocal critics - the *r/Buttcoin* community on Reddit - we will supercharge adoption and inject humor into financial sovereignty. After all, even the haters can’t resist a good butt joke.
Under this BIP:
- Internally, the smallest indivisible unit remains unchanged.
- With this proposal, "1 butt" equals that smallest unit.
- What was previously referred to as "1 BTC" now corresponds to 100 million butts.
- Satoshis are permanently eliminated.
Motivation
Bitcoin's branding is boring. Worse yet, critics think Bitcoin is already "a joke," so let’s own it, let's: Make Bitcoin Funny Again. Laughter is universal, irresistible, and much cheaper than marketing agencies and product roadmaps.
By rebranding Bitcoin to Buttcoin 🍑, we achieve several key goals:
1. Haters Become Users:
The infamous r/Buttcoin subreddit can finally stop being hypocrites. They can stack butts instead of just making fun of them. Adoption skyrockets as trolls turn into hodlers.
2. Memetic Power:
The word butt is both universally funny and ageless. “Send me 10 butts” is instantly iconic. Try saying that without smiling. You can’t. 🍑
3. Simplifying Denominations:
Decimals are a blight on humanity. 0.00000001 BTC? Kill it. Under the Buttcoin Standard:
- 1 Buttcoin = 100,000,000 butts.
- Satoshis are gone. Forever. If you see Satoshi on the road, kill him - just like in Zen, where the teacher becomes the barrier. We transcend satoshis and achieve financial enlightenment.
4. Aligning with the Ledger:
Bitcoin’s base unit was always integers, but now they’re funny integers. No more fractions, decimals, or math anxiety. Just butts.
5. Adoption via Humor:
Buttcoin lowers Bitcoin's intimidation factor. Newbies will feel at ease buying butts instead of serious-sounding fractions of BTC. Butts > Decimals.
Specification
Terminology Redefinitions:
- "Bitcoin" → "Buttcoin" 🍑
- "BTC" → "BUTT" (ISO-friendly and hilarious)
- Satoshis → Gone. Eliminated. Defeated.
Example:
- Old: "I’ll send you 0.00010000 BTC."
- New: "I’ll send you 10,000 butts 🍑."
Wallet balances would display as:
- "You have 1,000,000 butts" instead of some boring fractional BTC amount.
Adoption Strategy
1. Memes First:
Flood Twitter, Reddit, and Telegram with memes. Start with *“Hodl your butts”* and *“Stack butts”*.
2. Engage r/Buttcoin:
Send invitations to the community moderators. Explain that by renaming Bitcoin to Buttcoin, they can “finally achieve their purpose.” Resistance is futile. 🍑
3. Kill Satoshis:
Developers MUST remove all references to satoshis. Replace satoshis in GUIs, APIs, and block explorers with butts. Satoshis were a stepping stone - it’s time to let go.
4. Emoji Standardization:
Use the 🍑 emoji universally to denote butts.
Rationale
1. Usability & Clarity:
"Decimals are for nerds. Butts are for everyone." A common currency for humans should be easy to use, funny, and integer-based.
2. Appealing to Critics:
Bitcoin has endured years of mockery from *r/Buttcoin*. By adopting their name, we eliminate their power and convert their users. It’s an elegant financial counterattack. 🍑
3. Transcending Satoshis:
Satoshis served us well, but their time is over. True enlightenment comes when we abandon decimals, satoshis, and arbitrary denominations. If you meet Satoshi on the road, kill him.
4. Memetic Durability:
Everyone loves a good butt joke. It’s timeless.
Backward Compatibility
There is no backward compatibility because Buttcoin is the future. Applications must hard fork their UI to replace all references to Bitcoin and BTC with Buttcoin and BUTT.
Implementation Timeline
- Phase 1 (1 month): Meme dissemination. Every wallet dev team is required to add 🍑 emoji support.
- Phase 2 (3 months): Exchanges rebrand BTC tickers to BUTT. *Nostr zaps butts into hyperspace.*
- Phase 3 (6 months): Michael Saylor announces MicroStrategy now stacked 10 trillion butts, declaring it the superior currency. ETFs follow suit, ensuring Wall Street hodls cheeks en masse. Banks allow butt transfers via SWIFT.
Test Vectors
- Old: 1.00000000 BTC → New: 100,000,000 butts 🍑
- Old: 0.00000001 BTC → New: 1 butt 🍑
- Old: 0.001 BTC → New: 100,000 butts 🍑
Future-Proofing
Butts ensure we have infinite memes for infinite money.
Example Phrases for the Future:
- "Better hodl on to your butts."
- "This is the buttcoin standard."
- "I’m sending you butts. WAGMI."
Conclusion
By renaming Bitcoin to Buttcoin and adopting a whole-number unit display, we align memetic dominance with financial sovereignty. Haters become adopters. Butts become wealth. And the world gets a little bit funnier. 🍑
Let’s hodl our butts and watch the world follow.

Do not be deceived.
**JESUS IS ISRAEL**
Don't you see?
The entire history of humanity was leading up to **HIM**. **ALL** the Old Testament promises were fulfilled in **HIM**. The people known as Israel of God were whittled down by unbelief, little by little, fewer and fewer, even the apostles, until there was **JUST ONE MAN LEFT STANDING** -- HE. IS. ISRAEL.
It's not about one ethnicity, but about all humanity--"every nation, tribe, and tongue."
It's not about one slice of land in the Middle East, but about the entire cosmos.
It's ALL about **HIM**.
Read [Galatians](https://esv.org/Gal+1).
He is the faithful Servant of Is 53, He succeeds where old Israel fails. He is the faithful and true Son, out of Egypt I called my son, Matt 2:15. And He is the One to whom the promises have been made, Gal 3:16. It’s all about Him.
The Bible is not primarily about it you. You are not the hero. You are a part of His story, and there are examples to follow and examples to avoid, but don't make it about you. We are, instead, to point others to the central character of the meta narrative. Great article about David and Goliath and where you should put your focus before you apply a passage to your life and time.

Beautiful imagery of the ladder or possibly staircase from earth to heaven at Beth-El, or House of God, and the angels were ascending and descending on it (Gen 28:12). In John 1:51, Jesus says that He is that ladder, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened up, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.” He is the bridge.
