Crypto and liberty. Living on crypto since 2015. Free State Project mover, content creator at Digital Cash Network, writer for Human Events .

Really fascinating chat with John Nieri on some more innovative stuff going on in the Bitcoin Cash world. Stabilization protocols are quite needed in crypto today.

Everyone! I'm going to travel to Amsterdam to speak at ETHDam next week. I have layovers in London and Dublin.

Who wants to meet up? Let me know!

Good to hear, though they're affected too. If they have to open or rebalance a channel for you it's going to be rough.

With freedom, it can be hard to achieve your dreams.

Without freedom, it's impossible. Live Free or Die!

Bitcoin isn't "uNdEr AtTaCk". It's being used

The Lightning Network is unusable right now.

Lots of illusions being shattered!

Bitcoin is now Ethereum's L2

Litecoin is Bitcoin's L2

MWEB is Litecoin's L2

Take as long as you need to think about that and make sense of it 🧠🤔💡

Had a great time with the "real" Ryan Taylor on Friday. Always brings a smile to my face when I see people who have been in the space for over 10 years!

Tough pill to swallow for supporters of scaling crypto on-chain: no one cares that #bcasherswereright. Scaling cheaply on-chain is not enough.

Giving up massive network effects isn't overcome by improving a single parameter.

In 90 minutes (3pm EDT/7pm UTC) Ryan Taylor comes on the Digital Cash Rundown to talk about the ongoing US bank collapse and more!

So many people will be triggered by this one but I don't care.

Great chat on My Latin Life about crypto (obviously), freedom, and a lot more. Cheers! 🍻

99% of cases for me, no. 1%, maybe? But the 1% are smaller things like "I should have worked harder at that" or "I shouldn't have said that cruel thing to that person".

While I do have free will, where I am now is mostly the logical conclusion of who I've been all along.

I suspect the same is true for you.

Seriously think how much you'd be impacted by a nationwide banking collapse. Now as yourself why you aren't living on crypto.🧐

You don't have it because you haven't earned it yet. You think you have. But you haven't.

Really excited to be speaking at ETHDam later this month! 🤩 It'll be the culmination of learning to not only live on crypto but travel internationally on crypto using de-Googled privacy-preserving devices. Wish me luck!

The best things are NOT always made by the people who worked the hardest.

It's the dumbest thing ever. I don't drink whatever coffee the baristas worked hardest at. I drink whatever coffee is best. ☕️

People shill me their favorite cryptos but then hand-waive away serious issues. Huge red flag! 🚩🚩🚩

If you can't even acknowledge existential problems, they'll never be fixed.

It was a pleasure to hear from Marina after a year in one of the most unique and challenging environments in crypto.
