Today I have a nice view of the NY skyline. It also gives me a chance to reflect on the past 23 years since 9-11. That day was a pivotal moment in my life. A senior in college, studying international business (Keynesian Econ) and German. This day would eventually lead me to serving in the military and deploying many times to SW Asia. Furthermore, I would see the military industry complex in full force and seeing countless destruction. And for what? The worst C130 missions were moving the fallen soldiers draped in the American flag. These moms lost their sons. It's truly disheartening. We don’t even think about the moms on the other side that lost their sons. Conflicts will occur between nations, and God forbid if we have to go to war that we have to pay for it with sound money. In God Bless Bitcoin, @preston and RFK Jr, and Brian Dixon explain with such clarity how fiat money entice politicians to engage in these endless wars because it makes so money for the weapons manufacturers. In the end, we all pay for it through inflation. Now that I understand bitcoin and I have never been more hopeful and optimistic for the world and for my kids. I have a new mission now and a sense of belonging with @Bitcoin Veterans and @OPERATION BITCOIN . If you know anyone who has struggled with their experiences in the military or during their deployments, send them our way! We will take of them! Best POC is @Gabe Let’s make war unaffordable through bitcoin. image

Today, I emailed the mayor and the city council a copy of the Bitcoin Standard and told them to begin discussing a strategic reserve.

I love it when the S&P 500, DJ, and Nasdaq fall while Bitcoin climbs.

Fresh Alaskan halibut is unbelievably delicious. Bitcoin, please don’t fix this.

My daughter wanted to go running after her soccer game today. She got dressed and came with this on. So I put my shirt on to match her and we got to our first run together.
