nostr:npub1klkk3vrzme455yh9rl2jshq7rc8dpegj3ndf82c3ks2sk40dxt7qulx3vt spitting absolute fire on this Nostrovia podcast with nostr:npub1mygerccwqpzyh9pvp6pv44rskv40zutkfs38t0hqhkvnwlhagp6s3psn5p (link to the full podcast episode at the end of the post). This part of the conversation was such gold that I made it into a separate clip: https://m.primal.net/LJjL.mp4 This part of the conversation is about the book Second Realm: https://libertyunderattack.com/product/second-realm-book-on-strategy/ (you can download and listen to it for free) My highlights from the conversation in text: [Gsovereignty] ...We can also orange-pill the world by hiring everyone... [Max] Yeah, cause ultimately free people are productive people and productive people want to build stuff... Not just do we need to produce services and goods in the 2nd realm that cannot be acquired in the 1st realm, but likewise there is a demand in the 2nd realm that cannot be provided or satisfied in the 1st realm... and so then 1st realm agents will migrate into the 2nd realm in order to produce those goods and services for 2nd realm inhabitants. [Gsovereignty] I think I will take that hint and start referring to the bitcoin world as the 2nd realm [Max] Yeah it's a perfect fit... ... (Second Realm) It's a book on strategy, how to build a productive parallel society that gets humanity through this dark time of parasitism. We need to have people continuously producing, DESPITE the enormous amount of theft that is going on, and we need to build tools and strategies that make being productive cheaper. There is a gigantic demand in this area, and therefore huge opportunities for value creation and profit. So, this is ultimately I think what is going for us, like back during the Soviet regime: you had the Soviet economy, centrally planned and everything going to shit and rotting and no value being created at all, and you had the much more liberal western societies with more free market producing enormous amounts of incredible things. You just see the two markets and centrally planned slavery societies always underperform property-rights based freedom societies, like always has, always been, will always be... just because of economic reality. So in the long run we will see exactly the same thing happening again: the first realm, centrally managed, fiat-controlled and slave/theft based system is going to dwindle and further decrease in capital. It will devour itself more and more, and as it is dying it will have to devour itself even at a faster rate, just to keep up. While simultaneously the free world will produce things that we cannot even yet imagine, at a scale we cannot even fathom... ...and that will continue to increase, as we continue to write the code that decreases the cost for doing so, and we're not stopping to write the code!

Why I started Sovereign Landing I've been location independent for over 8 years. Nomadic lifestyle isn't easy, but Sovereign Landing solves my biggest pain... During these 8 years, at times I've attempted to have just one permanent base. Every time I try, reality seems to start sending me subtle or not-so-subtle hints that I shouldn't even be trying that... so I'm now leaning 100% into a semi-mobile lifestyle - permanently. I'm not constantly moving around because that would be just a ton of wasted energy, but I'm not living anywhere permanently either. A few different places per year. This comes with some issues of course. Nomadic lifestyle is especially challenging over the long term - most people who try this just give up. Many find lack of community the worst aspect, but I've never really cared about that - my communities have always been online. What I personally find the most difficult is the actual moving - having to find a new apartment in a new country, and setting it up. That's tolerable to do maybe once, but the frustration compounds over time. This happened again in the beginning of 2024. I was busy with life and knew I wanted to go to Tbilisi, Georgia, so I did. I just thought I'd get a temporary Airbnb while I find an actual longer-term rental. Should be easy, right? Well, it's never that simple, and that hit me once again when I started the apartment hunting process. I remembered vividly what absolute drain of energy it is. It usually means weeks of focus destroyed. That's true even if you hire local help, as that hiring process by itself can be long and arduous! If the first person you hire can't get the job done (somewhat likely!) you have to start from scratch - fffffuuuuu... I did find a good reliable local person in Tbilisi (Nina), and during her apartment hunting I just couldn't help thinking "if this thing here and that thing there was done slightly differently, this could be like 10-100x easier". These things kept popping up in my head. Nina was working as a real estate agent part time, and when she mentioned that she could have time for more customers, I just put 1+1+1 together. I know something about online marketing. Nina is an expert on the local market. And I'm definitely an expert on taking sort-of-functional processes, ripping them apart and turning them into great customer experiences. That's how the idea of Sovereign Landing got started! I've been building this project primarily with myself as the primary customer avatar, but it's now high time to start getting some market feedback from OTHER people - preferably customers! 😀 I'd highly appreciate it if you can check out the site and let me hear your thoughts? https://www.sovereignlanding.com/

Hah! Finally got the NIP-05 working on my own domain. Had to put it on a subdomain because for some reason it just wouldn't work on the main domain (don't have root access to that server and troubleshooting was a pain) so I set up another server just for the NIP-05 verification... bit of a chore but hey, at least it works now! :D
