What's so special about listening to 40 hours of Bitcoin podcasts. At 1.75x, that's only 3 hours and 15 minutes a day. Those are rookie numbers. Enemy of the podconf state, Francis Pouliot, says that using leverage to trade bitcoin to build your stack isn't a shortcut to becoming a Bitcoin OG. But is listening to 80-100 hours of Bitcoin podcasts every week the REAL cheatcode (sorry Peter McCormack)? If Ive only been in Bitcoin for 3 years, but I've listened ti every episode of RHR, Rock Paper Bitcoin, and the Canadian Bitcoiners Podcast, am i accelerating to OG status? How many Bitcoin podcasts do I need to listen to to get Adam Back to call me an OG? And why does Fountain (podconf approved?) have charts for podcasts, but not for podcast listeners?

For those of you who left a fiat job for Bitcoin, how did you know it was your time to go? #asknostr

The Bank of Canada lowered rates today by 0.25%. They also signaled more rate cuts in the near future "... if the economy continues to improve". Rate CUTS if the economy is strong. This makes no sense.

I hosted a Bitcoin Walk yesterday. One of the guys that showed up was a young guy, seemingly eager to learn about Bitcoin. The kid had a decent understanding of it works, at least for a newcomer. About an hour into the walk, he started asking me questions about how he could find a job in the Bitcoin space. I told him that his time would be better spent learning, coming to meetups, and stacking sats. He didn't seem very happy with my answer... he started asking about shitcoins a bit, and if I had ever thought about starting my own. High-time preference stuff. This kid seems destined to go down the shitcoinery path... I suppose there's nothing for me to do other than be an example for Bitcoin-only, but it's frustrating. This kid seems like a hustler (in the good way), but I suppose it's all just a part of the process.
