Building next-generation solutions for cold storage and self-custody.
The digital transformation of politics will be a huge step forward.
We’ll be able to remove a lot of bureaucracy, make decisions faster, verifiable, and include more people directly.
Money and politics don’t go together. Money is just a tool.
Asking politicians to regulate money is like asking them to regulate measuring tape.
Even though the system is corrupt, we can’t just burn everything to the ground.
We have to fix what’s broken and keep improving!
AI will never replace human labour.
Humans need something to work on that gives them a sense of fulfilment, we need a purpose to stay sane.
Even if an AI was a million times more productive, a human could still contribute more productivity.
Everyone contributes to human consciousness in some way.
The only way to get an honest image of humanity is to give each individual the freedom to contribute and support causes they find important.
The most innovative companies don’t have employees, they have entrepreneurs building and innovating around a shared, but constantly evolving, vision.
The western world has always strived for equality.
Absolute equality can never be achieved, what can be achieved is something more equal than the status quo.
Unless our monetary system is sound and fair, our democracy will never be.
The reason why church and state were separated was so people would be free to believe in what they wanted.
The reason why money and state need to be separated is so we can have free markets and have people decide what’s important for them.
The fact that governments can print money is the single biggest threat to democracy.
This basically means that populist politicians can make crazy promises and fulfil them even though the government couldn’t afford it.
Democracy isn’t perfect, it’s constantly improving.
Improving democracy means adopting a more decentralised decision making process.
Economic freedom is arguably more important than freedom of speech.
If you can support something verbally but not financially, it’s not going not move forward.
Actions speak louder than words!
There are always areas of technology where startups can compete with big tech,
Startups should pursue something that’s overlooked, big tech are all working on the same stuff; AI, AR/VR, self-driving cars…
98% of the Somali Shilling in circulation is counterfeit…
Blockchain technology is a great equaliser that challenges the dominance and control of big tech.
It took some years for mobile software to become mainstream.
It’ll also take some years for XR software to go mainstream, the race starts soon!
Cyberspace is the only place where provable scarcity can be created.
There’s also no violence there. That why it’s the perfect environment for the monetary system!
If gold has so much intrinsic value, why is only 10% used in industry while 90% sits in the vaults of speculators trying to drive the price up?
The argument for gold is usually that is has intrinsic value since it’s used in electronics etc.
For that reason, it would make a lot more sense to stop valuing gold extremely high simply because it’s shiny.
It would lead to the products becoming more affordable.
