if you are using BTCpay to accept payment, sharing two IMPORTANT things! 👀 - don't freak out if you do not see the funds land in the wallet, most likely it's due to the gas limit problem - better mark down ALL the wallets that you had ever used, the last things you want is you don't know which is the right seeds

Has anyone ever studied how human scent works? If natural scent is one of the cheat codes for finding the right partner, then why ppl use all the scented body wash, shampoo to perfume to mask their own natural scent? 🤔

When hodling Bitcoin is probably the *best* or let's say, the *safest* option, you really think twice or more before doing anything with it ( aka spend ), which means it has to be something really worthwhile, then the interesting Q would be what ppl would do with their Bitcoin:) And it's the total opposite in the fiat world, you are the loser if you don't do anything with your money. How interesting!

Something I have learned recently: if you subtract all the noise, there are really not many things worth paying attention to; The hard part is how to trace out the sources or at least getting closer.

It amazed me how people in the past were capable of doing with bare hands.

admiring the beauty in a mosaic museum - did you see what I see 👀

Bitcoin changed me a lot, but the biggest one probably is changing me from a consumer to a maker; I used to be a minimalist, but I have leveled up from choosing what brands to buy from to learning how to make whatever I want, in the way I like. I can't really express this feeling in words yet ( it's wild ), and it helped me to understand how our consumerism society functions - it not only keeps stealing ppl's time and energy buying things they probably do not even need but also takes away the joy of creating.

if the things you *own* others can take away from you, maybe it's not really yours in the first place.

Just finished the movie The Thirteenth Floor, amazing - do you think our consciousness just "moved" around like that in different simulations? 👀 In the movie, there is simulation within the simulation; it almost sounds like this fiat slavery world in our society. You have people who get up every day just to chase those unlimited supplies of money so to buy whatever is being sold, scary, and this world is exactly created by the greeds. Then I also did some quick research about consciousness, and it turned out there are quite some ppl do remember their past lives, intrigued: - what if all these living & dying are meant to be experienced under different simulations? - what if we already lived many lives, and all the knowledge that we needed is within us and waiting to be unlocked? - what if the real secret is within us?

There are many posts discussing which Hardware Wallet to buy or why some Hardware Wallet companies don't accept Bitcoin, etc., but what if the whole point of Bitcoin is about self-responsibility, which includes making your own cold wallet? 🤔 I'm not against anyone buying any HW if you really want to, as it's definitely better than storing it in exchanges or putting your hard-earned sats in any hot wallets. But learning how to make my own cold wallet was one the most empowering moments in my Bitcoin journey, and you can create it on the go instead of waiting for deliveries, which is much more efficient and private too! https://geoarbitrage.com/coldwallet/

The shoes I designed finally arrived! 👀 designed by me with natural leather and handmade by a craftsman who has been crafting shoes for over 30 years, and it's a beautiful feeling wearing things that you co-created! Once you are out of the fiat world consumption game and not keeping up with the Joneses, you then realize that there is a sea of options waiting to be explored. ✨

Fear is what makes one weak — conquering your own fear is the way to grow.

The right formula to be free is being independent.

just finished the movie Stardust, really good - what if we were all stardust, watching and knowing everything, but decided to come here to experience human love... yet ended up being fooled into chasing fake money and fuc*ing with each other.

Having coffee in a 400+ years old house, it felt like traveling back in time.

We all talk about POW, but it upsets me that oftentimes the people who do most of the work only get a tiny fraction of the reward. That's partly why I quit my job and started to do my own thing a few years ago because it's just not fair - I work hard to do the job and need to do what was told and be there every day, then you just reap my effort and giving me a faction called the salary? how is this even make sense, not to mention all the stupid corporation shit and unproductive meetings... 🤯

went to a money museum the other day, the owner spent about 30 years collecting money from different places; then I asked where is Bitcoin 👀 and he said he doesn't believe it, as it was *not guaranteed*. Then I asked him what's money, and he didn't answer; I guess even a money collector don't know what's money.

The City of the Prophets: Urfa ( Şanlıurfa ) places around this area are like a living human history documentation, you can see how different human civilizations lived here, and they built things that last so we got to know that they existed, which led me to think about what our generation is building that could last, besides Bitcoin?

Went to Göbekli Tepe recently, the oldest temple discovered so far; it was built about 12000 years ago, you could probably find many videos online of it, but nothing beats seeing it in person - it's literally in the middle of nowhere, seeing everywhere yet without being seen from afar, super smart! ( there are still other areas waiting to be excavated ) And one of the interesting things I have learned is that ppl used to use it to gather together to exchange goods, even marriage 👀 not just being a temple; I was getting lost a bit in history last week, too much to learn...
