We’re in an information war and, fortunately, the tools of engagement have never been stronger and more accessible for the Common Man.

Number go up and people who previously derided us for liking bitcoin suddenly talking nice about it is certainly fun and interesting, but it is all for naught if the network isn't sufficiently monitored and defended by those who would like to see bitcoin succeed as it attempts to keep the creation and facilitation of money separate from the state and central banks. Make sure you pay attention to this stuff. View article →

What's happening in the UK is very sad, but expected. We've known for decades that the fight for freedom in the Digital Age will only be won with unstoppable software that makes it impossible for tyrants to silence individuals. Honored to be a part of this protocol with you all. Many don't recognize it yet, but Nostr will be the protective layer of free speech in the digital world. Keep pushing forward.

More and more people are recognizing that a globally distributed neutral monetary network with a native currency that has a hard capped supply of 21,000,000 is something worth owning during the times we live in. View article →

With the impending arrival of our third child coming up we had to go buy a new car yesterday. The way credit scores work is so wild.

Enjoy these days while they last. We'll look back at them with an "Oh, that was cute" type of mentality 15 years from now. View article →

"As more people make coins - the more normal it gets" "It feels weird at first but then you realize it’s just a way for people to trade the popularity of your posts and profile" This is the end state of the high-velocity trash economy. Over-complicating things that can easily be solved with better money. image

Flashback to 2010 when you could buy 10 #bitcoin for $3.48. It's crazy to think how far not only bitcoin, but the Internet has come in 15 years. This web interface looks ancient. The pace of innovation from today to 2040 is going to be even more accelerated and bitcoin will be a multi-hundred trillion dollar market.

You can tell Coinbase has been listening to how people position Nostr and slapping the marketing on Base, which is a DINO version of Nostr. Imitation is the highest form of flattery. Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither will truly robust freedom tech. Keep building.
