In my recent newsletter I reflect on Gaza, censorship after Charlie Kirk’s death, my own bans, and how CBDCs & banking freezes push us toward Bitcoin. Read here:

Newsletter: the world keeps spiraling down, and we always have a choice to stay on team human - awake and aware.

Hi my dear subscribers,

📚 3 books I've finished & recommend. Comment with your own recommendations! 📘 Silicon, by Federico Faggin — memoir of the microprocessor inventor, blending tech innovation with deep reflections on consciousness. Quote: “We can build a robot that detects the molecules of a rose and identifies it—but it would have no feeling of the smell, no awareness, because a machine has no consciousness.” 📕 The Kybalion — timeless Hermetic philosophy on mentalism, analogy & polarity as keys to reality. Quote: “Mind (as well as metals and elements) may be transmuted, from state to state; degree to degree; condition to condition; pole to pole; vibration to vibration.” Thanks for the recommendation, @preston. 📗 Anatomy of the State, by Murray N. Rothbard — a sharp critique showing how the state thrives on coercion & propaganda. Quote: "Just as the two basic and mutually exclusive interrelations between men are peaceful cooperation or coercive exploitation, production or predation, so the history of mankind, particularly its economic history, may be considered as a contest between these two principles. On the one hand, there is creative productivity, peaceful exchange and cooperation; on the other, coercive dictation and predation over those social relations. If the seventeenth through the nineteenth centuries were, in many countries of the West, times of accelerating social power, and a corollary increase in freedom, peace, and material welfare, the twentieth century, has been primarily an age in which State power has been catching up—with a consequent reversion to slavery, war, and destruction."

NEW EPISODE: Architecting the Monetary Endgame My guest today on @You’re The Voice is @allen Farrington, writer, investor and co-founder of Axiom, a Bitcoin-focused venture capital firm backing companies that use Bitcoin as real infrastructure. Allen lays out his prediction for the transition of the monetary system from Fiat to Bitcoin. We discuss: * Why most current stablecoin systems fail at scale * How Lightning & Taproot Assets enable issuer competition & scalable payments * The path from stablecoins → e-cash → Bitcoin-native money * Why Axiom bets on “temporal arbitrage” in Bitcoin-based infrastructure * Companies to watch in Bitcoin & Lightning, e.g.: Voltage, Ark Labs, Musket, CoinCorner, Neutron Listen/watch now 🎧 links below in comment
