I cannot wait for the news headlines that Rogan is the new Gobbles. 🙄

I wish these people would understand that the more they push, the dumber they look and the more transparent their manipulative tactics are, which in turn pushes more people to Trump.

And yes, they are actually this retarded because they are incapable of self-reflection.

fuck WW3 started while i was writing my Op-Ed on inflation

now nobody will read it

FUCK !

There were no World Wars before the creation of the Federal Reserve.

Look at this shitcoin.

I want to briefly clarify why we've committed to Bitcoin maximalism. It's not just because we believe Bitcoin is the best form of money. I mean, it is, but it's also because taking a Bitcoin-only approach is consistent when it comes to approaching finance and economics more broadly.

Adopting this toxic "Bitcoin maxi" approach is also a protest in response to the absurd and unnatural hyper-financialization that's infested every part of capital formation where the risk is asymmetrically transferred to the next sucker that takes out a loan.

Chasing Riba based yield to make up for the loss of purchasing power resulting from banks issuing Riba based loans is just so insanely reckless and stupid!

You're essentially responding to the fragility of the fiat monetary protocol by building even more fragile financial structures on top of it. The yield isn't based on anything real or productive, it's artificially created to hedge against the inherent volatility in the financial system.

The solution shouldn't be to make the yield halal. The solution shouldn't be to make monetary supply expansion halal. Heck, the solution should not even involve a central bank monetary policy to begin with!

Before even coming up with any kind of halal solution to this, we need to properly describe and grok the problem. And no, the problem isn't just "omg fiat is Riba and funds genocide!"

We need to deeply understand HOW and WHY fiat completely relies on riba to function at the base layer of how mankind achieves global economic consensus.

The fundamental and philosophical assumptions underlying how we even conceive of money, wealth, and real finance need to be rethought, assuming any real thought was put in to begin with. It needs a complete reset. We need to be comfortable in acknowledging this.

This is not how Islamic finance, or any finance, is supposed to work. Our beloved Prophet (pbuh) and the Sahaba didn't earn their living through fixed yield financial products like this.

This is why we're proudly "Bitcoin maxi". We reject crypto and proof of stake. We reject fixed yields. We reject the idea of stablecoins. We reject this high time preference design philosophy for finance completely!

We need to seriously rethink what we're actually trying to build for the Ummah. Claiming that Bitcoin has no intrinsic value and or it's too volatile or too expensive or whatever is not going to get you there.

it's all worth it cuz you'll be a "non-racist", tolerant motherfucker in the gulag, won'tcha?

wait what 😂

maybe i should, you never know, eh 😁

slowly and steadily making progress regarding the driver's license theory studies

:) proud of mysef

when?

do we ever have enough?

feel like my brain's programmed into a constant state of "more"

just an inevitability of a consumeristic and capitalistic society?

Not much at all, but my setups pretty good.

And I wouldn't throw sats into custodial lightning wallets in an altruistic attempt to help lightning. The best thing you can do is get your setup where you want it to be, and use it for your specific use case.

Some freaks are routing, some freaks are private, some freaks just need a place to sovereignly zap and get zapped. Some freaks are preparing to be Uncle Jim's, some freaks are having fun playing with the toys.

Start9 x Albyhub is pretty legit and is most likely the gift that will keep giving, as the FOSS improves.

The same amount you would be comfortable losing on a night out, for myself as a custodial user 200k feels extreme to have hanging around
