Have you stacked sats today? 🚀

I'm not sure why I didn't take to stacker.news sooner. It's been on my radar for a while, but I've been inundated with other inputs, priorities, etc., and I’ve spent most of the past year going down the nostr rabbit hole, but here I am giving it another go.

So a couple of weeks ago, I was laid off from yet another fiat job. My third one in three years, in fact! An old friend, in fact the guy who offered me my first real job, reached out to me on LinkedIn to ask me what happened, and what my “ideal scenario” would be.

I replied with one word: Bitcoin.

His response: Yeah right.

I wrote back: A little disappointed in your lack of confidence. 😅

His answer, unsurprisingly: Not in you but in Bitcoin.

Of course, I’m sure he thought I was going to become a trader or something, because when most people hear the word bitcoin, they only think about the price. They have no idea what’s being built right now.

I told him my ideal scenario would be to work in the industry. I’ve been thinking about this for a while. I spend most of my time online immersed in a world of new possibilities, ways to connect, share value for value, and build stronger community bonds. This is where I want to take my career next, and to finally make a break from a world of “serious professionals” who think bitcoin is a joke.

He never replied, of course.

Let them laugh.

You guys played great and the Jays season was summed up in two games.

Congrats and good luck vs. HOU!
