Loved this conversation guys 👏👏👏
In particular this concept of “intervention” as something to not just be examined, but also fundamentally questioned
Another Bitcoin podcast for the win!

Well played! Nice to hear a story in which the push back is not only received, but acted upon
Having been quoted 5k to 10k from a couple of branding agencies to help with designing my new podcast, I've found myself playing around with Ideogram
Cool AI tool for creating logo's
It's not that other people aren't good designers, or the cost per say, but the fact that creativity comes from within, which really excites me about tools like this
I can now drastically improve my iteration, and end product, with a superior form of technology, to create something I am happy with, which is ultimately (like any design) always subjective
AI is already changing the world
A friend just "doubled their money in Bitcoin, so decided to sell it all"
Reminder: value and price are 2 very different things, which will take a while for many people to understand
Psst: Bitcoin is still not at an all-time-high in Gold
Thanks Nick! I will reach out for sure
36 now, and wonder if this particular instinct is well behind me
First step has been building playlist, which I've called "Audio Tourist" , as I hunt for inspiration
Getting a few messages from friends of 2 types:
1 - "loving this, I want to take profits, doubled my money"
or
2 - "how do I buy? what type of wallet do you recommend?"
Wider retail market not even revved up yet though...
Probably a good time to remind oneself "Stay Humble"
Right now I feel like I am being paid for decision making 3 years ago
Absolutely loving it
The Australian Government is trying to tell teenagers how they should behave online with legislation being created for social media usage
I am sure their intervention will solve the problem...
Musk has done an impressive job of making X the "free speech" platform
But it's only a matter of time before the thought police come smashing down on him
Nostr is the long-term solution to the very serious problem of digital censorship
But the recent moves of Mr Musk might just slow that adoption process a little
I think it's when "other stuff" really will come into its own as the key value driver of Nostr
Really is a "pinch myself to check this shit is actually happening" time
The long hours of wondering if you're totally mad being rewarded with purchasing power increases
Amen to that
Don't think the ETF"s have even opened for business yet...
I recently wrote about the 2nd brain I am building, to help with creativity, and productivity
Here is what made it into my "Ideas Garage" the last few weeks:
- Buy jake.com. Make it a personal brand, with a focus on financial literacy
- In person podcast byron
- Lead. Literally lead. Take risk. Try more. Build what you would use. Go for it
- You are your own worst enemy. Abundance mindset pls. Self-sabotage is normal, persistent, and solvable. Train mind with Ben Gunn friend?
- Mindset coaching program for Bitcoiners with their time back, to then build companies, and invest in them
- Follow up Cheatcode messages to people saying nice to meet etc
- I want a healthy home
- Up my trading view skills - get indicator package from jigs installed
- Nostr only / first content studio
- Research multi sig options and prepare a document or notion
- Content creation studio Byron
- Focus on creating a long firm podcast
- Short form video content creation. 1 to 2 mins. Like mc in between panels. Just riff off a word / topic / subject
- Could you create a 24/7 Bitcoin podcast - different hosts logging in at different times to carry the batten?
- How can you use mid journey to create a brand?
- How do I produce a podcast with ai?
I- f you really want to teach people about Bitcoin, you need to make excellent content for free, and distribute it to as many people as possible
- At what point does my time become too expensive to justify doing MC jobs for free?
- if you wanted to creat decentralised media, would it look like Nostr?
- Should in sell more family co shares?
- How should I brand my new podcast?
- Would prospera be a good place for a VC?
- Live with your heart, more than your head. Each day you leave the house, ask your heart to turn right or left. Amp up over time
- What are my top 10 lifetime goals from now?
- Dad died of a heart attack. His dad died of a heart attack. How break the patern?
- Get over you fear of failure and learn to surf
- What happens if you just let things be? Be a dad with young kids. Be comfortable with being semi-retired, Or not working, or having your assets work for you
- Focus on finding a nice rental property. Renting is best right now
- Research the geo-engineering in Byron, why rain makes us sick?
- How do I find a reasonably priced, accessible, low tax, island to buy and live on?
- Build out at home podcast studio for 1. Stop procrastination and start recording
- In the same way that Bitcoin is disrupting central banking, does Nostr disrupt nation state beauacracy? No longer need official gov id to prove trustworthy, but a nostr digital ID. Ltd pty disruption?
- Get in better shape. You can’t beat Bitcoin re wealth. So focus on health, to then generate value. What did a weight lifter 150 years ago do?
- Revel in being a dad. Savour the early days. This is proof of work. - - Don’t worry about big projects right now
- Learn to produce house music. Jazz influence
- Double down on building a personal brand digitally. Cashflow & investment opportunities will come from that
- Why not just invest in your favourite VC funds? Why need to be a VC yourself? What insight do you have over others?
- Build a Bitcoin backed real estate development co that can access fiat leverage
- Learn to take good photographs
- Look at skool. Create a wealth course
- Build a nostr product to solve btc sessions problem
What I do next is filter out:
- fuck yeak vs fuck no
- actionable vs unactionable
- maybe later
- The One
- Diarised yes/no
The key, as I am learning, is about energetics, and creating more space for new ideas to come through, whilst hammering out a system that helps you focus in on what's actually in alignment
Lots of bad ideas is totally fine!
What's interesting also is seeing how repetitive some ideas are... Some things just REALLY want to come into existence
🙏
Setup a friend with a Muun wallet this morning
Such an awesome experience
Amusingly, he'd forgotten his Apple account login, so downloading the app needed a password reset
To then have a no-kyc onboarding experience was a great example of permissioned vs permissionless systems
He's now the proud owner of $50 aud of Bitcoin
Interesting to see what happens next, as he was talking of the pain his investment properties cause him, not just in mortgage obligations, but also the need to have a stressful job to pay for it
Wondering if he might opt for a Bitcoin standard instead
Strong start to the week in Asian opening
When the US opens up: the 10k daily surge?!

Absolutely I do. As an investor, if you don't have any idea when you can get liquidity on something, or at what level you take a profit, then you're just a gambler.
Now, as I've learnt more and more, I don't really see Bitcoin as an investment, but just a savings technology, and the best money ever accessible to man
But the investment lens I've honed over time is applicable to all area's of life. Health, wealth, etc. So I like to use it
Many think I am bearish, but in 2022 I set a August 2024 150k aud price target. We're right on track!
1000 sats
Love this kind of note. Content creation with Nostr, the ability to zap, and therefore revenue generation, is still in its infancy.
There are going to be so many novel ways of scaloing this type of thing
I already see people saying "all zaps for November donated to X" eg, ie a charitable avenue
Why wouldn't a brand team up with someone like yourself? I think they will
They key: I found this post in "most zapped 24 hours", ie people will game trying to get into those categories
Love it
Keep it up!
Ps - no need to return sats
That my friend, for the short-term traders, is the golden question
My feel: I don't care, as I am long, and not anywhere near a price or timeline HODL target
My instinct: this week is going to absolutely rip
True. In this instance, I need to find someone that I can build a long-term relationship with and start to trust
