Ordered a new shelf for my podcast background Currently looking for some Bitcoin items/memorabilia to include... but I don't want to get lazy and just put a Block Clock, a B logo & fake plastic plants Maybe some ASIC miners? My OG Casa Node? Some merchandise? Any cool ideas?

Over the last few months, lots of guys have bought Cryptosteel metal backups using promo code “BTCTKVR” for a 10% discount Just wanted to thank you and remind you that the same code works for Satochip too – in case you want to try a new kind of hardware wallet!

Went to Ikea to look at furniture Holy fuck I’ve never seen this much virtue signaling in a single place You buy furniture? They have labels to inform you that the wood comes from sustainable places and they use recycled materials too You go to the bathroom? Their water comes from rain, which they collect You go to the restaurant, they recommend the vegan option Fml, I wanna get out of here

Starting to believe that the Lightning network as the one and only Bitcoin scaling solution Was just a psyop to make bitcoiners accept custodians and cope better with the concept of trust Yes, it works well for that 1% of users. But everyone else will have to trust custodians.

I’m 33 years old and today I felt excited watching the Nintendo Switch 2 presentation Not really because of the new games and fancy features But because I want to play GameCube games from 22 years ago on a handheld with a beautiful screen and long battery life 🥲

Zerocoin and Zerocash were such a big deal in Bitcoin in 2013 They got released as altcoins, perfected & refined for 11 years, referenced in the first mention of a CoinJoin on Bitcoin Talk Yet the average bitcoiner today will say it’s unnecessary shitcoin tech Wtf happened? image

Bitcoin used to be fun. Now it’s too corporate, with too many suits who never used a real wallet trying to maximize the Ponzinomics aspect of it for their own gain. This is not why I started the Bitcoin Takeover podcast, but it’s exactly why I keep going.
