Just woke up here in the Netherlands and, of course, immediately read about the attack on Trump. Sick world. What now? Are they going to try again? It seems to be the only way for blue America to beat him… image

Not sure how many Dutchies are here on this platform already, but if you are.. Check out my latest (Dutch) podcast with Bert Slagter (from BitcoinAlpha): Very cool episode where we discuss the current state of the (Western) economy and what we expect will happen in the near future 🙏🏼🙏🏼 #bitcoin #themarcmywordsshow #macro #dollar #euro

Every time after I listen to @Jeff Booth on a podcast, I try to spend extra time on NOSTR purely because of his advice: “If you keep putting your time and energy into that other system, even if you’re kind of arguing against it, you’re still making it stronger.” Well, if I remain primarily active on Twitter and LinkedIn, I’m guilty of that. Challenge? My clients are mostly there, so I’m more or less forced to produce content there (too). How do you all deal with this?

Just published a Bitcoin episode with Bert de Groot from Bitcoin Brabant. In Dutch.. Deliberately in Dutch since there is already so much high quality content in English and we feel that most Dutchies still prefer Dutch content.. This way we have more change to orange pill some newcomers 👏🏼👏🏼

My personal journey from “I buy Bitcoin to become fiat-rich” to “I save & spend in Bitcoin to help a new financial system succeed” has been long but very interesting. Now that I run 2 full nodes and know how to open my own Lightning channel, I begin to understand how free it has made me. This feeling helps me become a better Bitcoin educator whereas 2 years ago I already thought I knew a lot. Well, I guess not. Funny how, every time, you simply don’t know what you don’t know and believe you already know a lot once you’ve barely start studying a new topic (mount stupid is real). It’s beautiful how one thing leads to another and how you realize that you shouldn’t rush the process but simply experience it consciously. Everything happens exactly as it should 👏🏼

Strange how one day you can feel like everything is already set in motion and it could ignite at any moment, while the next moment it feels like we've barely made any progress and it will take another 10 years for people to realize it. #bitcoin #nostr

Was at Adopting #Bitcoin in Arnhem today. Always fun to be amongst other Bitcoiners. Some interesting speakers & discussions so a good next step. That said, lots of steps still need to be taking. Especially here in the Netherlands. We can use some more energy & optimism if one were to ask me.

Just finished a three day full spiritual trip, without internet connection/mobile phone, family, psychedelics or others substances.. Beside being around the best facilitators/teachers, it only you who have to do the work. Connection & meditations only. 72 hours. Result? Like magic. Can not put it into words.

Really have to start spending more time on NOSTR. Breaking old habits is never easy. For now I still run to X in the time that I have left after having done my prio’s. Any hack/tips you have tried to change this automatic behavior?

To understand the importance of decentralization and, with that, censorship resistance, is a red pill most still haven’t taken..

I was gone for a while, it took too much time posting on Twitter, LinkedIn & creating content for my own community. Then I heard the podcast with Matt Odell on WBD. It’s time to put in the work on here again. It has to be the future.

Think I just added my Lightning address correctly.. Is it true that I can fill it the same information twice at address & url?

Life is fucking amazing if you do surfing & Bitcoin. Seriously, connecting with nature by performing sports & lowering your time preference with any choice you make.. It just makes everything else look simple.

To be perfectly honest, I’m really just getting to really “grasp” why Nostr is so valuable. Really, I (of course) understood the use case instantly but thinking about it more deeply lately made me realize that we, this army fighting for freedom, are actually unbeatable. Wow. Goosebumps 🙏🏼

Checking out something like Nostr on a Friday night is not something the “old me” would have thought of as a good idea.. Well, more than 2 years of traveling the world all the while this plandemic clown show was going on has leveled up my consciousness in ways I couldn’t imagine. I sincerely believe we have to act now. One of these things is get active on this decentralized form of media. Let’s do this 🙏🏼

Why do I feel that Bitcoin & NOSTR become more & more important by the day? It’s like shit really is about to happen in places where “we” never thought it would. Most people I know don’t care one bit if I talk about Nigeria, Libanon or Venezuela or some country like that. They truly believe it’s not possible in their own country. What do you think? Probability-wise? Will it happen in Europe within a few years?
