Looking forward to getting more hands on and collaborating on Nostry things we can do for NS!

the initiation of a pop-up city where society-as-a-service is being developed. People can now opt into, by their own consent, new societies that, in the digital age, form on the Internet.
Until now, societies formed on land and became countries with GEOGRAPHIC borders, citizenship, governments and passports.
THE INTERNET is new kind of country, with borderless passports, consensual membership and distributed governance.
However, members of the Internet need a physical place to live. A cloud-first country such as The Network State then spreads its roots on land, and a man-made island (like Forest City) appears ideal because there are no cultural or historical territory claims on it.
If artificial islands can be built for as little as a billion dollars, they can be crowdfunded by a certain number of people... who grow their society and its economy in the cloud first.
I've always been firmly positive about the future, even in the darkest of times, because I known that the visionaries and techno-optimists are building a better world. I studied Bitcoin so I could join them.
For nearly a decade, I physically isolated myself in remote Australia and found my aligned people online. Now I'm surrounded by other techno-optimists in-person every day!
I like this matrix that Balaji mentioned during his lecture to us this week, to visualise what is still unexplored. 
Thank you for having confidence in us to expand the MPB mission to Australia. Our group is very excited and happy to get involved

I look forward to presenting on Day 2 of the Digital Economy & Tax Masterclass, where I will discuss the Australian taxation implications of Bitcoin DeFi. I will also address the need to reconsider and challenge the current capital gains tax treatment of emerging financial activities on Bitcoin layers.... it'll get spicy π₯

and get some serious accounting work done to #MakeMoneyGreatAgain π€

Nashville was fun and I did the whole Bitcoin meat thing as a tourist. But I'm home now and THIS is the breakfast of Bitcoin champions π π
We can't breakdance around here but we can move mountains of numbers!

Could Nostr-like tech be used effectively for user-owned accounting data? The protocol would need to be modified to include specific data structures for financial records, with stricter access controls, and perhaps incorporate features like smart contracts for automated processes. Xero reminded us that "the cloud" is just someone else's server, prompting talk about user-owned data, decentralised data storage, web3 architectures for accounting and such.

Last night I saw the Nashville screening of DIRTY COIN about how Bitcoinβ― mining is doing so much good in the world. It was just brilliant! Accountants will soon start mandatory ESG score-carding for businesses of all sizes, and Bitcoin will let us positively hijack this narrative. We'll make sure of it at nostr:npub1menrmd24ejnp9dk38au0vzw0fe9xsr25jdtdndj0eukapxz7vdps8sl4nq Accounting π§‘π±
It was amazing to to see Krista from nostr:npub14w9qrks8ct3uy7txfn8ays8vuz6qs5y2el25xngp4ap6vygp0v2sf9znc2 there too!

Yes, I use it. I'm an Australian accountant. No CGT when BTC used in the ordinary course of runnibg a business. But you still need to track gains and losses, on an inventory basis. Crypto subledger accounting software can import your wallet data, convert it to AUD and track gains/losses, and be integrated with Xero or Quickbooks accounting records.

Good podcast explaining why Bitcoiners and Business go together. Most startups fail and business owners stress and lose time over cashflow, taxes and finance. So have a good accountant onside from Day 1. (Ask me!) http://stephanlivera.com/episode/534/amp/
