An Artist should not ask and beg for a patron. This isn't the way to go about it. This isn't the kind of power dynamic you want and it won't makes for a successful patronage. I believe an Artist *chose* his patron and court him. It's a game of seduction. The Artist invest time and energy in this process over years. He must chose carefully as to not waste his time on a losing horse. The Artist must seek a relationship of equal with his patron. Respect must go both ways. He is not simply the lemming for a rich individual. He is an Artist with a capital A. He must not lose sight of the power he embodies as such.

My opinion on Bitcoin collaterized loans: They are not a result of The Bitcoin Standard. They are the symptom of a collapsing fiat standard. They are very similar to "Bitcoin Treasury companies" in this sense. Built to profit from a crashing world. Not built to rise a new one. View quoted note →

Comes a point where the silence becomes unbearably loud.

I am fine with what I deserve. I am not greedy anymore.

It is the year 2150. The world is fully hyperbitcoinized. A man own 2 bitcoins and he want to buy a house for 1 bitcoin. He is very smart so he decides to take a loan on his Bitcoin rather than spend them for the house. That way he can have the illusion of still owning 2 bitcoins. I am not very intelligent. Not like this man. So please explain to me the process here. How would all this go down?

I'm about to receive 166kg of Bitcoin Standard

I love the rustic look of the letters but it doesn't fit super well with the modern look of my white linen paper. I'm turned in between the two. They're both so nice. View quoted note →
