“5“ Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteriesa wide and the tassels on their garments long; 6they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; 7they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others. 8“ But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. 9And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. 10Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. 11The greatest among you will be your servant. 12For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Matthew 23: 5-12 — NIV, Student Bible by Zondervan https://a.co/gdPnFT3

It’s the coders, programmers, and software engineers (hackers/cypherpunks) that many of us interact with that have the capabilities to bot infect, spam, and virus everything to the point of complete inoperability… Makes me wonder…

Reading a book is low time preference. That’s why many struggle to do it.

The world hasn’t realized what bitcoin is. The whitepaper says it’s peer to peer electronic cash. If we don’t spend it and use it to transact with others it’s not fulfilling its purpose. I want people to not have to ask permission from their bank to send cash around the globe. If we don’t use bitcoin as a peer to peer electronic cash, it’s a failed project and we should move on.

I’d like to have some meaningful, respectful exchange of ideas a lot the following provocative ideas: “The only way to fix these problems is to attack them at their core. Fix the money so that people can lead lives of dignity and feel as if they have the ability to get ahead. Stop replacing native citizens with immigrants to juice GDP data while trying to convince people that we live in a post-culture world. Stop prescribing people synthetic drugs that warp the chemistry of the brain. Stop normalizing gender dysphoria as anything other than a mental health illness. And, most importantly, stop mocking God and instead encourage people to find solace in faith and their local communities. This list could be way longer, but I have a newborn to attend to.”

Scott Pelley of NBC ’60 Minutes’: Fair to say you simply flooded the system with money? Fed Chair Jerome Powell: Yes. We did. That’s another way to think about it. We did. Pelley: Where does it come from? Do you just print it? Powell: We print it digitally. So as a central bank, we have the ability to create money digitally. And we do that by buying Treasury Bills or bonds for other government guaranteed securities. And that actually increases the money supply. We also print actual currency and we distribute that through the Federal Reserve banks. ~ CNBC ’60 Minutes’ Interview, May 17, 2020 Two months after the onset of the C*vid-19 lockdown There’s really no limit to what we can do with these lending programs that we have. ~ Fed Chair Jerome Powell The Simplest Bitcoin Book Ever Written -Keysa Luna
