Yesterday was my birthday. Again.

I am only 21 million, @Daniel aka Bitcoin Gandalf I don't look it, but I am beginning to feel it in my heart of hearts Why, I feel set in stone, chained to time: Like too much infinity divided by too few coins I need a bull run. A very long bull run. And I don't expect I shall return In fact, I mean not to

I REFUSE TO LET US FORGET this woman's incredible courage. So in honor of the brave women of Iran, I translated one of my favorite poems to English. This is 'THE BEST' by Nordahl Grieg: «Death burns like Thor's lightning; Clearer we see than before each life in its white pain: it is the best of us who go. The strong, the pure of heart who wanted and dared the most; calmly they bid us farewell, as one by one journeyed west. The living rules this world; a herd will always remain, the indispensable clever, life's second best (wo)men. The best are murdered in prison, swept away by bullets and sea. The best will never be our future. The best are busy being free. Thus we honor them, with apathy, with all the emptiness we know, but then we betray the best of us, when we bitterly let them go. They don't want our sorrow, but to live with courage and faith. Only in the hearts of the daring the blood of the fallen remains. Is not each one who knew them richer than the dead ever were –  for (wo)men have had them as friends and children have had them as parents They raised the life they left. In new (wo)men they haunt us again. On their graves shall be written: The best will ALWAYS remain.» 🕯️

I don't want to change socks, but my wife says $100k is taking too long

🚨 DON'T WAIT FOR TRUMP! Or for Elon, or anyone else, to make your life better/worse: Simply study #Bitcoin to benefit AND study #Bitcoin to protect yourself. Do it yourself for yourself (and everyone you love). No middle man. HODL! 🏆

I don't want to pretend like I'm unreservedly happy right now. I organized Scandinavia's first #Bitcoin conference and fucked up the budget really bad. Got depressed and stupidly found brief comfort in drugs. Having suddenly lost so many hard earned sats I had held for years made it feel like nothing mattered anymore. Before I knew it, I had wasted what little I had left in a self-destructive spiral. I will never be able to earn them back and I still wake up with a panic attack every few nights. My kids keep me going, but also racked with guilt 😔 I'll never stop stackin' though and I'm never spending another sat in my life!

Fun fact #1: monopoly money saw an astonishing rise in fiat value over the past century. Fun fact #2: far more fiat than monopoly money continues to be printed each year. Conclusion: monopoly money was and remains a better store of value than the Euro or the Dollar!

The German economy is tanking, but Berlin remains largely unaffected because: a) No one pays taxes b) Elon's Gigafactory c) We were already poor

Is it true that people will only remember you for the zaps you sent?

Gonna start saying data instead of data so people respect me more.

I love Nostr as much as the next ostrich, but I'm damn glad I didn't leave X right now.

«Our greatest fear is that Trump will make peace», says Norway's former (and probably future) PM Erna Solberg.

I wrote a #Bitcoin song this summer. It didn't get much traction, but maybe this is a better time to share it with you all? 😁

"Did you know there was once a country called Germany that had over 50.000 coins?" "No way, that's impossible!" "I swear! My mom said it was back on Earth in the Dumb Age. It's actually why we call it that."

Were we really going "$8.2k! $8.3k! $8.4k!" back in the day? Call me at $0.1M 🔔

Moving this to the living room now that it's gonna be every day.

- Why don't you build something like me, @Michael Saylor? 🤓 - Because you're already building it for me, Elon 😎 Very #few!

Do you ever worry about 'The Spirit of 1914'? 😬 At the outbreak of war, enthusiasm ran high among many young Germans. This would be the adventure of a life time, an opportunity to shape the new century and return home with glory and honor. Their unfettered optimism is easy to understand. There hadn't been a major war engulfing the continent since Napoleon over a century earlier. No one knew how all the technological, economic, military and cultural developments since would play out in an actual conflict. But they were quite excited to find out and certain it would be over by Christmas. Does that sound eerily familiar? Fast forward four years and 40 million people had been killed or maimed in battle. By 1945, as many as 125 million were lost. Without even counting the countless victims of communism. I sometimes see ghosts of that same madness in our current zeitgeist, that same exhilarating acceleration of history leading us into utter darkness. Let's pray that I am wrong, but don't you ever worry?

How do we actually fix education? 🤔 Everyone seems to agree that our current model is hopelessly stuck in the industrial age, where students sit in neat rows completing mundane tasks to make them good factory workers. Yet I haven't seen many real platforms or proposals on what education should be like. Is homeschooling the only way? 🤷 I'm sure there must be other ideas out there. Enlighten me.

Problems don't disappear just because you think the wrong people pointed them out.
