Wow, so much friction on-boarding to Strike. It's like the regulators are trying so hard to deter investors at every step. You wouldn't have to take anywhere near the amount of 'precautions' to download a gambling app and smash all your money on red.

They're scared, you can tell.

What I love most about the depth of some books is how they lead me down various rabbit holes, each taking me to a new and fascinating world. I rarely finish a book cover to cover because I get engrossed in researching the words and ideas within it. However, I love returning with a deeper understanding of the book's message. I find that each rabbit hole adventure is like a layer that builds on the previous one, making it easier to interact with these complex ideas and systems in a more intuitive way.

War Theory #875?

Russia gather evidence that strikes from Ukraine in Russia are being done by non-Ukrainians, e.g. the U.K. and presents this evidence to the United Nations, declaring their right to retaliate. Russia retaliates on the UK with a single strike using conventional weapons claiming this should not trigger NATO article 5 since it was a declared legal retaliation under the rules based international order.

NPCs aren’t ready for this

All of the profits from the first thousand copies of Broken Money went to the Human Rights Foundation, since Alex Gladstein's public research was so useful for the book and I like the work they are doing worldwide.

The profits from the next four thousand copies went to making an animated half-hour video about Broken Money to reach people that haven't read the book, which we released a few days ago.

My graphics/editing team wanted to make sure that the video had good average viewer time in the first week to help with the YouTube algorithm, rather than the video be sent a ton of clicks that might watch it only briefly and hurt the early quality metrics, so they advised me to soft-launch it at first. We purposely haven't notified my email list or my Twitter feed yet, etc. But it's out there.

It's a half-hour video about the technological evolution of money, with animation. We put a lot of production value into it. And for the people who were sad that I didn't narrate the Broken Money audiobook, I did narrate this video.

In the coming weeks I will spread awareness for the video across my platforms, but for starters, it has been found here on Nostr.

Enjoy:

Bitcoin is on an exponential structural tech/adoption trend, but the cyclical direction of that trend is highly correlated with global liquidity.
