I was discussing #Bitcoin with someone and said it is "#trustless." They said that sounded like you can't trust Bitcoin. I realized I had the same apprehension when I fist heard the word. They suggested "trust-free." What do you think? #AskNostr #Trust

Imagine being able to buy more and more every year while working for money less and less 🧡 ✨ #Bitcoin #Hope #Abundance #Humanity

Blockchain and Bitcoin are not synonymous. Blockchain is not a revolutionary technology. Bitcoin is the revolutionary technology. From my personal experience, anyone who constantly says the word “blockchain” claiming it is a “revolutionary technology” either has no clue what they are talking about, or they are trying to sell you something, like their “better alternative” crypto. In reality, a “blockchain” is simply an expensive database. Just be skeptical around anyone constantly using this 'buzzword.'

Why "investing" in Bitcoin is better than Real Estate: - Affordable - Portable - Permissionless - Cannot be confiscated - Has outperformed all asset classes - Exponential purchasing power over time - No income, property, or municipal taxes - No interest payments or mortgage - No dealing with tenants or rental issues - No ongoing fees (maintenance costs, utilities...) Bitcoin forces housing to return to it's utility value over time Owning a home/land eventually becomes affordable for all "Investing" in Real Estate becomes irrelevant because "prices fall to the marginal cost of production" (Jeff Booth) #Bitcoin #RealEstate #Freedom

🟠 What does #Bitcoin mean to you? Using only one word #AskNostr

Life Lesson: Read Labels ⚠️ At a grocery store I usually do not go to Was looking for clean kefir Picked up a bottle Saw it was full of sugar Put it back Was proud of myself for catching it 💪🏼 🥩 Next isle I saw "beef" I trusted/believed it was beef I got home and was bamboozled lol Ok, it says "made with plant protein" on the package Yes, I take full responsibility for not reading what I picked up: Ingredients: - Bamboo fibre?! - Pea protein - Flavours lol - Red beet powder - Antioxidant: E301?! It's not beef, it is #fiatfood! 😑 Why would anyone other than a koala eat bamboo fibre tho? 🐨 Lesson learned, read all labels.

The #Bitcoin rabbit hole leads us to question a lot of things... Bitcoin is energy Food is energy And so, eventually, you may also get to #Food I recently learned that fruits and vegetables may also essentially be fiat foods. Not saying I won't consume fruits or vegetables, but I believe it is worth questioning. For example, here are what some fruits and vegetables looked like before selective breeding, GMO modification, and mass agriculture: Here are the sources I used to create that image: Source 1: https://www.treehugger.com/fruit-and-veggies-that-used-look-whole-lot-different-than-they-do-today-4864247 Source 2 @14:28 (not trying to offend anyone, I believe it is worth the watch): #Foodstr

The economic definition of #SoundMoney changed with Bitcoin 💵 Properties of Money Pre-Bitcoin: - Durable - Divisible - Portable - Uniform - Fungible - Acceptable/Recognizable - Unit of Account - “Scarce” (we all know this never happened IRL ;) 🧡 Properties of the Soundest Money Ever #Bitcoin: - Everything Above - Decentralized - Trustless - Digital - Incorruptible / Counterfeit Proof - Instant Settlement Am I missing anything?

Business idea for the #Nostr community Elevator pitch: ☀️ Crowed-funded sat-based short term rental Real Estate Long pitch: 🌍 Live anywhere in the world, own small fractions of many short-term rentals (1 to 3 months); save and make real estate income in #sats! (Before prices fall to the marginal cost of production and real estate falls to its utility value, and then essentially becomes free ;) Long pitch: 🧡 Imagine going to an “AirBnB” (PlebBnB lol), loving the place, and investing some sats to own a small % of it ⚡️Every time a fellow #Bitcoiner #Nostrich #Pleb #DigitalNomad stays there, you make sats! 🙌🏼 When you stay there you get a discount as a co-owner 🏘️ You can own as many of them around the world as you want! 🌊 Live anywhere you in the world, make sats, save sats Goals: 🫡 True location independence: jurisdiction arbitrage made Easy! 🚀 Own “AirBnBs” based on #Lightning all over the world! ⚡Shared revenue streams in the world’s hardest money! Now for the minute details, I don’t know: Maintenance, repairs, ongoing purchases, cleaning… Just putting an initial idea out there 😅 🤔 What do you think?
