I don’t post as often, but I’m still here. I appreciate all of you for being here as well.

Unchained in Texas seems to have a good reputation. I am thinking of rolling my 401k over to them. Anybody have a positive or negative experience with them? Seems like a solid company to me.

This morning, I am grateful to Foundry and Ant Pool for allowing me to transact using the bitcoin network. Bitcoin, the “we haven’t censored you yet” protocol.

My pinned tweet on X: "Regardless of price, protect bitcoin." Bitcoin is a monetary network that volunteers support by running nodes, contributing code, educating, hodling, spending, and so on. The social layer of bitcoin is important. For me, I am against spam on the network and believe we should take action to make our desires known. I will not be upgrading my core node and will continue to run my knots node at the office. I understand the argument that if one miner with a reasonable amount of hash is willing to include spam, it could end up in the chain. Regardless of this, we should not condone abuse of the network. Jack has said apathy is one of the biggest risk to bitcoin, I agree. If bitcoin fails as money, I am certain the world will bitcoin will die from lack of interest. Is TOR a success? I consider an absolute failure. Despite the tech, which is questionable at best and probably infiltrated by FEDS, TOR is a failed project. NOBODY uses it routinely. I don't want bitcoin to suffer be relegated to the dark, remote corner of the internet. A dead project, blocks that nobody cares about. If you want to store data, buy 3 hard drives, separate them geographically. Data storage is not an issue, MONEY IS! We need to win, we must win. Filters aren't 100%, and I am sure many core developers are wonderful people, but at this moment, I have lost some degree of confidence. We need more developers working on knots. We need to work to decentralize mining. We need more node runners. If you support core, that is fine. I am glad you are fighting for bitcoin, but I'm on the other team. The team that wants bitcoin be a peer to peer monetary network that cannot be stopped. When compliant blocks were being mined, we pressured the miner into stopping this violence against OUR NETWORK. We can do the same with spam, but we must show resolve. Protect bitcoin, regardless of price. If we fail to protect bitcoin, we go to zero. Stream of ideas, post not edited.

I don’t post as much as I used to, but I remain extremely thankful for nostr. Have there been any updates on how to rid of spam? I can’t enjoy my feed because it is filled with garbage from people I don’t follow.

Price of bitcoin denominated in fiat…

The revolution is happening. If you desire “cool toys to play with” and “technologically exciting,” just go buy a new IPhone. nostr:note1xcfx7vy45xadykt25259plx2h05y94xq0qh4dfwqtyvhpkvegpusdff9qs

I check every few weeks for these rates to come down. nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 is the only company I would currently trust to do a loan against my bitcoin, but the rates remain too high. The market will bring them down. I hope.

I read that being able to accept bitcoin as payment has been implemented, but I am unable to locate this feature. Do I need to buy the newest terminal or has the feature yet to roll out?

Epstein Didn't Kill Himself:

Proof of Independence Day Stack!

From 2025-2029, the big beautiful bill adds 2 trillion to the deficit, or 500 billion per year. The national debt is already growing at 1 trillion every 100 days. The money is broken and it’s important to recognize this. Then, take action to protect your family. Voting harder isn’t going to work.

Send it to 58k or the moon. I’m bored with this 101-109 price range.

Truth is treason in an empire of lies. - Dr Ron Paul

Many of UTXOs “owned” by treasury companies will one day be reformed anew in my bitcoin wallet.

Scams never truly die; they just evolve. Old deceptions return in new forms, exploiting our knowledge gaps to extract money. Stay sharp, stay informed! Bitcoin is the innovation, the revolution.

I remember when we could do summoning circles and the price would go up. It is worth a try.

I’d rather Bitcoin stay niche, serving those who truly need it, than watch clueless retail pile into some grotesque Wall Street knockoff disguised as “buy my stock.”

The state will take my voice away soon. I need you guys and girls to keep working on this protocol
