Watch this one. Really good job @jb55.

GM, let us start the day with a classic. #BrokenMoney “By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By this method they not only confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily; and, while the process impoverishes many, it actually enriches some.” -John Maynard Keynes

Broken Money by @Lyn Alden now available in Kindle format.

GM, Nostriches, I'm on the lookout for some classic cyberpunk comic books. I'm talking about the kind that reaches iconic status! 💥 Any recommendations? Hit me up! (Please repost)

I enjoyed reading this article about EFTs by James Lavish.

”Governments love to scapegoat the people for their screw-ups, with capitalist profits and greedy workers conveniently dividing the electorate. They do this because getting half the country to blame the other half lets the puppet-master off so they can get back to fleecing and impoverishing us while we fight.” Great post from Peter St Onge https://www.profstonge.com/p/blaming-capitalists-and-workers-for

Bitcoiners need to keep educating themselves on how to better educate.

It is saddening to see ppl flocking in queues to hand over their biometrics. Black mirror level dystopian nightmare. #worldcoin

GM! Once you understand Bitcoin, there is no turning back.

GM, in his book Principles of Economics, Saifedean Ammous explains what lawyers have known instinctively for a long time: everyone sells time ;-)

It’s no fun for me to say that #zapplepay makes #Apple look like morons.

Zapple Pay

Thanks to @saunter and @Alby, I converted my business email address gpietras@djp.pl into an LN address. Had to get a little help from my IT department, but surprisingly, it was rather easy. Look forward to a world where all email addresses are LN addresses by default. https://guides.getalby.com/overall-guide/alby-lightning-account/where-to-use-your-lightning-address/how-to-use-your-own-domain-as-your-lightning-address

It will come as no surprise to readers of the ‘Bitcoin Standard’ and the ‘FIAT Standard’ that @Saifedean Ammous 's ’Principles of Economics’ is truly an excellent read. The book is a concise, clear, and engaging representation of the Austrian economic thought. #bookstr

Testing @Openvibe on iOS. It has been working flawlessly so far. Great UI. Zaps still working. (Don’t tell Apple!) I am pretty impressed. Good luck.

I feel like ditching #Apple for the first time ever.

"Now if we turn to the empirical record, we confront the stark fact that, in no period of human history, has paper money spontaneously emerged on the free market.“ Jörg Guido Hülsmann, The Ethics of Money Production #bookstr

Before the White Paper, Jörg Guido Hülsmann explained why #Bitcoin — if invented — would work wonders. "In the High Middle Ages, when large-scale commerce and the interregional division of labor started to flourish, the great merchants of northern Italy found that no government produced money that was suitable for their new needs. The traditional coin system contained only silver coins, virtually all of which were hopelessly debased and, what is more, were debased to different degrees. The merchants then set out to produce their own money, new and sound gold coins, which at first they used only within their own circles. And because the other governments tolerated this practice—because for once they did not stand in the way—by the thirteenth century the fiorino d’oro from Florence became a generally accepted medium of exchange in central and eastern Europe. A little liberty of this sort could work wonders in our age, which from a technological point of view is so much better endowed than the medieval merchants were.“ Jörg Guido Hülsmann, The Ethics of Money Production
