Climate change physicist. I have crazy ideas about bitcoin.
"A lot of what we think of as culture are actually social revolutions that won. So it shows that revolutions happen all the time." - David Graeber.
The world exists of a series of crises of injustice perpetrated by all of us against all of us. We willfully allow those who hold the reins of power to dictate to us what is acceptable to say or do. We willingly let others take our ability to choose away from us. We are cowards until we are not. Those who make history are the few who could take back their agency, even if for just a moment. Why couldn’t that be you?
We are so lucky to have David Byrne in this world.
John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s Double Fantasy is an excellent album.
Still blows my mind that the worst bitcoin mining FUD is from commentaries--scientific journal articles that are advocating for a certain POV--and not novel research. Mora et al., with figures removed, is probably only a page long.
Climate change is really happening. These hurricanes are not man-made, beyond the reality that climate change is man-made. There's no weather seeding going on.
I read an article today about how booming the US natural gas industry is right now. I'm really curious when we might start openly talking about how we were never ever going to get rid of fossil fuels with the addition of wind and solar without batteries capable of fully replacing natural gas plants.
I need Andrew Dessler (who is not on Nostr) to talk me down from this very pessimistic ledge.
I am worried for the family of the person HBO is about to claim is Satoshi. What do we gain through these witch hunts? Nothing. Bitcoin is beyond anything Satoshi could have imagined. It doesn’t belong to h them anymore. In many ways, Satoshi is irrelevant. That’s a good thing.
I think I am finally old enough to really appreciate Bob Dylan’s music.
"According to data from TheMinerMag, Foundry USA Pool and MARA Pool mined 18% of all bitcoin blocks in January 2022. As of August 2024, that figure has risen to 33.6%, and that doesn’t include U.S.-based hashrate connected to Chinese pools."

Good morning. I'm still the new *interim* host of @`The Progressive Bitcoiner'.
Direct action isn’t petitioning the government authorities to do better or fix things that are broken. Direct action is saying, “screw it, we’ll do it ourselves” or, “we can stop this without them”.
The first step toward freedom is acting like you are already free.
This is also known as anarchism, btw.
K bai.
How can you not love David Graeber’s ideas on anarchism, anthropology, and the exploration of human possibilities?
Two bitcoin conferences in the span of a week. Life forever changed. Left last Thursday for MN for the Mining Conference where I had the honor to introduce Daniel Batten’s recorded keynote, proved to everyone I am a sadist for loving how brutal mining is, and talked about the importance of supporting our work at the Bitcoin Policy Institute and my research on bitcoin mining! Then, back in Nashville, TN for an incredible Human Rights Foundation bitcoin summit. Met the most incredible humans from around the world. And somewhere in between, I became the next host of @The Progressive Bitcoiner !
Just another week…
As new host of @The Progressive Bitcoiner, I'm going to need some help! I'm looking for a volunteer who can manage our social media accounts. If that's you, please send me a DM!
It kind of makes you think… View quoted note →
