When information goes exponential, narratives collapse. Fraud and debt stop being theories and start being data. The challenge now isn’t awareness—it’s learning how to move, build, and stay ahead inside a system that’s finally visible.

In a world of infinite money printing and finite attention, survival looks like:

• owning scarce assets

• reducing counterparty risk

• building skills that compound

• thinking long-term while others react short-term

Imagine if the Founders had seen the size of today’s federal government and the trillions in debt. A little more foresight back then, and we’d be living in a completely different America.

“I wish it were possible to obtain a single amendment to our Constitution: I would be willing to depend on that alone for the reduction of the administration of our government to the genuine principles of its Constitution. I mean an additional article, taking from the federal government the power of borrowing.”

— Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, November 26, 1816

I was lucky to be raised with deferred consumption as a core value—as a kid, I thought saving money meant it held its worth forever, no rush to spend. Adulthood shock: inflation devours it. Saving should grow value over time, not shrink it. Time to rethink stored energy over time. #Bitcoin

What is the inflation adjusted $5 wrench attack?

Learn from past mistakes

Live with purpose and conviction

Dream of a better future

From a theistic view, morality comes only from God, so Bitcoin itself cannot be inherently moral…. it’s a human creation. Yet because discovering Bitcoin often feels like a paradigm shift that exposes truth and justice in a corrupt system, many are tempted to deify it. In reality, Bitcoin can only reflect aspects of divine order, not embody them, and mistaking that reflection for the source of morality turns a moral tool into a form of idolatry.

Choose to be better than you were yesterday

Bitcoin is more than digital currency—it’s the embodiment of human labor, a permanently engraved in time. Each block is a fragment of energy, a testament to the work we’ve done. In decentralizing value, we reclaim autonomy over the fruits of our labor, free from centralized control. It’s the work of individuals, preserved by the collective.

As a follower of Christ, I want my daughters to grow up unafraid to stand boldly for their faith, know they are deeply loved, and be a light in a world that feels impossibly dark. When evil strikes, Jesus is still good, still present, and still worth following.. no matter the cost

“True ignorance is not the absence of knowledge, it’s the refusal to acquire it” -Karl Popper

More than politics or religion, your answer to “Are humans inherently good or evil?” quietly shapes everything — justice, parenting, freedom, even hope. If sin isn’t real, neither is the need for redemption. Yet we still chase the Tower — convinced that with enough progress and collaboration, we can be our own savior. It’s a first principle that colors every moral debate, whether we realize it or not.

Raising kids doesn’t always feel profound in the moment. It’s messy, loud, ordinary. But over time, the weight of it sneaks up on you. A reminder that joy doesn’t come from ease, but from giving yourself fully. Raising Godly kids is proof of work in the purest form — slow, costly, unseen. You may not see the return for years, maybe ever. But then a little voice says, “I love you, Daddy,” and in that moment, the whole investment makes eternal sense. In their eyes, we meet both God’s grace and our purpose.

You “ought to” often assumes a shared value system. But what’s right for one person or generation isn’t always right for another. Without shared moral ground, “ought” can feel more like pressure than guidance. The best advice respects the lens of the listener

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” — Carl Jung

“The purest form of love honors another’s free will to accept or reject ultimate truth

without coercion, manipulation, or control—because true love respects choice, even

when it hurts. It reflects the kind of love God shows us: patient, unforced, and rooted in grace”
