Is there a better opening scene of a film…?
Madness. The idea of this sense of unfairness at scale is very troubling
I would be so pissed off
And you guys are in a small minority that understand Bitcoin and can start to make back some of those gains

Managed to get them both back to sleep
Ones in my arms
I “get to do this”
Early starts for the win
Why do you say that?

"Bitcoin mining is the connection between the real world and the physical expenditure of energy and the Bitcoin network and the transactions that are required to be processed. And it's through Bitcoin mining that we have what's called proof of work. And proof of work is the engineering that underpins Bitcoin."
Jake Woodhouse / Ep.49 / 8:05
What is Homeopathy? The Science of Natural Healing
w/ Sarah Valentini
"With all things digital, you can just copy-paste. Bitcoin, in some ways, is actually the innovation of, or the discovery of, digital scarcity. When you send Bitcoin from one address to another, it cannot be sent twice.
The phrase 'standing on the shoulders of giants' is completely true with Bitcoin. There's 50-60 years of computer science that's gone into getting us to this point."
Jake Woodhouse / Ep.48 / 32:33
The Harsh Reality of Working in Bitcoin
Andy Edstrom reflects on the challenges of building Bitcoin-native businesses and why most Bitcoin startups struggle to succeed. Working in Bitcoin is not for the faint of heart...
Bitcoin, Surveillance, and the Fight for Financial Privacy
I break down whether Bitcoin is truly anonymous, how on-ramps compromise privacy, the difference between pseudonymity and anonymity, and how to build a non-KYC Bitcoin stack. I explore why Bitcoin’s design protects users at the protocol level, the risks of surveillance, and how Overton windows shift from Bitcoin being career suicide to becoming an essential strategic reserve.

I break down Bitcoin mining, how it connects the real and digital worlds, and why proof of work makes Bitcoin the most secure system ever created. How does Bitcoin mining fits into global energy markets?
How to Keep Your Bitcoin Safe (Avoid These Fatal Mistakes)
I break down the critical mistakes Bitcoin holders make, why self-custody is non-negotiable, and how to store Bitcoin safely for the next 100 years.
Makes a mockery of the idea we live in a free market
Adopting Bitcoin enables a more positive outlook on the future
Sound money helps lower time preference
This gives potential parents a better financial grounding
Babies are a positive side effect
Opening up the most profound if human experiences
There’s another zap
Haha

Something about sending actually value, ie a zap, as a great exchange of positive vibe and energy
🙏🏻
Thanks Sven

Thanks so much for the support. And glad it’s of value!
Last night my guest had internet connectivity issues
They’re a very advanced osteo and cranial sacral healer
She swears that technology when in her hands struggles
Could it be that her vibration is upsetting the 5g/wifi?
Wouldn’t surprise me
Anyways, had to stop the recording, and do again in a week
🤔
50th episode of The Jake Woodhouse Podcast is out tomorrow
Milestone that’s arrived faster than I expected
Next stop: 100
Thank you to everyone involved
💪🏻
When I get a moment, I’ve learnt to do what I call the “power 10”
- Set a 10 min timer on my phone
- Sit in silence with eyes closed
- Observe my mind
When I finish, if I have time, I like to write notes
Whatever comes to mind
Often it help me to see the most important task of the day
Or be kinder to myself
Sometimes it even pumps me up
I feel so supported
Ready to take on the world
One’s worries drop away
So next time you have 10 mins
Try it
Thanks for tuning in! So pleased that it's of value
Hahaha
Weird one
“In sync” it should have said
But maybe all my guests are the spawn of satan… 😅
Bitcoin price action: last time we were at these levels it felt so frothy. Everyone was high-fiving, “we’ve hit 100k, we always knew we could”. This time around it’s far more based. It’s just a fact. Bitcoin is marching on. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if we see the price run into the 120/130 range over the next few weeks. Only to pull back. And do the same old grind back up. I still feel August of this year is about right in terms of total euphoria phase. 200k or more not out the question. I’d be very comfortable at a 160/170k top…
Time will tell
