Sold 8 chairs this week. Got a few more to go. By the end of the week I should be a proper Bitcoiner: chairless.

Currently transitioning from suburban fiat miner to digital nomad. It’s been a long time in the making, yet somehow it feels like we’re making it up as we go. We’re walking an untrodden path. I straddle a line between excitement and absolute fear.
I hate Facebook with all my heart, yet I’ve been glued to it for a week straight. Take a photo of a table, a chair, a bookcase… a random person arrives at the door to take it away. One by one, the things that tethered us are leaving… with every knock on the door.
Just over a week to go, and the cleansing will be complete.
Thanks to all the Bitcoiners who helped us get here.
1.2 TH/s added to the network! 💪

Was lucky to have spent the day at nostr:npub1hvqhft3p5m9vrg9fez62cm4lmftvu5tqtsc4kxpyju9uya0hywdq3ny4jq today.
An amazing event in such an inspiring space.
In the same way El Salvador felt way ahead of its time–a nation state adopting bitcoin as legal tender. This feels like it's a cycle early too. Surely we shouldn't have something this good till the 6th epoch.
The UK is lucky to have it, and great work by everyone involved.
If you haven't been yet, you really should.
Time to onboard some more businesses.
Hello Balham market.


One of my favourite bands is Midlake. The original singer Tim Smith released his own album late last year.
I love this track ‘Daughters Of Albion’
Great lyrics -
“I do not understand this dark and empty age”

Highly recommend.
Worldwide financial illiteracy has given rise to the clown world we know—and hate—today.
Introduce your kids to Austrian economic principles as early as possible.
A daily dose of history just for Nostr.

🗓 On This Day in British History – 1087
🏰 William the Conqueror, the first Norman King of England, passed away on this day in 1087 in Maine, France. His death followed injuries from a fall while campaigning.
👑 Known for his pivotal role in the 1066 Norman conquest of England, William transformed the country’s landscape, influencing everything from language to law.
⚔️ He was buried at the Abbaye-aux-Hommes in Caen, Normandy, a place he founded. His rule marked a turning point in British history, forever linking the English throne to Normandy.
📜 Even after his death, William’s legacy lived on through monumental changes that reshaped the British Isles—many still felt today.
🏰 William the Conqueror introduced the Domesday Book in 1086, a groundbreaking survey of England’s lands and resources. It was the first of its kind, establishing a record for taxation and governance that transformed England's feudal system.

I’m partial to a good history post so I’m going to start doing the occasional one and see if Nostr enjoys them.
Can’t hurt to have some wider subjects on show.

My brother and I went to see Oasis at Maine Road in 1996.
He kept his ticket and just sent me this picture.
28 years of inflation 😬
