if you remove all the flaws from fiat you get bitcoin if you remove all the flaws from gold you get bitcoin

Is this the right way to use #nostr?

The silver lining of me spending days explaining to Apple & Google what is Nostr is that eventually i’ve learned a little trick: You can just resubmit an app update until you find a reviewer that doesn’t care. View quoted note →

The amount of time Apple and Google wanted us to remove Nostr login has been very eyes opening. View quoted note →

Nostr is everywhere.

I'm grateful that my job requires me to hanging out with other bitcoiners

I don’t want a 50-year mortgage. I want to abolish the FED.

For those interested, here's why we're upgrading our name from Orange Pill App to Club Orange: We looked at the data: 3 word names are significantly harder to remember. We saw consistent misspellings (peel, pilled, up..) affecting search & discovery, and the word 'pill' was creating brand friction we couldn't ignore. Why Club Orange? Simpler, more scalable, easier to remember and harder to misspell. It aligns better with what we're building: a home for Bitcoiners, everywhere. I’m going to miss Orange Pill App, but it’s time for a new beginning. View quoted note →

Owning a home isn't the American Dream anymore. Owning a Bitcoin is.

People always ask me how I came up with the idea for @Club Orange, so here's the story:

there is something extremely peaceful about being 100% in bitcoin and not having to care or think about any other assets

the most mind-blowing fact about the fiat world is this: if all debt was repaid there would be no money left in circulation every time i explain this to somebody they always look me sideways and i can see their brain breaks in real time as they realize is true easiest way to orange pill somebody

the people of New York should buy bitcoin instead of voting for socialism

@Club Orange - $0 VC funding - No bitcoin celebrities behind it - Completely paywalled (no free trials) - 19k paid members - 90 countries - Almost $1M in revenue You can just do things.

Yesterday, for the first time, I received an email from an human which was obviously written by AI and I debated for a long time if I should reply at all. Eventually I did, because I knew the human would at least read the reply. What struck me is how quickly authentic, human-to-human interactions are becoming scarce, and therefore more valuable.

I bought my first Bitcoin in 2017, and by 2020 i was a Bitcoin Maxi, the problem? Nobody wanted to hear about it. Friends thought I was crazy. This wasn’t just my experience, it’s a widespread issue in the Bitcoin community. The reality is that existing social platforms don’t solve this problem, bitcoiners have to use 5,6,7 different apps just to connect with each other or find local events. And that’s why I've built @Club Orange - a social network entirely dedicated to Bitcoiners.

99% of the world have no idea bitcoin just made a new ATH think how early we are

After spending 10 years thinking about Money & Bitcoin, here's the simplest explanation I can come up with: Money is a technology to move Value across Space, Time, and Scale. Value is the utility humans derive from Goods & Services. Value is highly subjective, and it changes across Time and Space. Unbeknownst to them, Economists have defined these functions as: - Store of Value (Time) - Medium of Exchange (Space) - Unit of Account (Scale) Throughout History, no monetary system has managed to satisfy all 3 functions of Money at once. This is where the idea of Backing Money and the necessity of separating Money and Currency come from. This trade-off can be described as a Money Trilemma: you can optimize for 2, but not all 3. Gold is great at Time & Scale, but not Space. Fiat is great at Space & Scale, but not Time. Until the invention of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the first form of Money that successfully excels at all 3 functions simultaneously. It achieves that by perfecting all the properties of hashtag#Money, with no extra room for improvement: #Bitcoin is: - Infinitely Divisible - Instantly Portable - Forever Durable - Mathematically Finite (what is mistakenly called Scarcity) - Perfectly Fungible Bitcoin is the final Evolution of Money. The World just hasn’t figured it out yet.
