Will there be a day When you’d sell your Bitcoin stack for say 10 percent ownership of say spaceX and a board seat? @Michael Saylor ? Would be epic parlay

@ODELL not sure who to reach out to, I know you an investor, but can’t post anything w pics on primal iOS
Is the loss rate of Bitcoin a problem? @Lyn Alden if say 25 percent are gone forever, and the slippage is 1-2 percent a year? At what point can sats supply be so low as to nullify it as a medium of exchange?
I’d also love if you could discuss money in relationship to population growth, and also money supply and edge investments/Innovation.
Thx, huge fan
It’s not often you see monetary policy and fiscal work in complete opposition, this cycle and the end of zirp years.
2023 2t 7.5 percent deficit with fed hiking at the most aggressive relative pace in history.
You want an end to inflation, reduce spending. You want to simultaneously crank rates till something breaks, while the crooks in Congress gorge at the spigot….
Not gonna lie, this is gonna end really really badly for all of us.

I’m power listening to the Elon Musk bio by Walter Isaacson. Elon basically wants to create what seemingly will be an emergent property of NOSTR @ODELL in one sense of it, although pub/private key creation is free, can we make it so that if there is some skin in the game, we get an orange check (know how much you love the blue checks). I,e find it with some sats, say 100k
I think there are way less bitcoiners than is often spoken about.
What matters is full node runners,
You’re not a bitcoiner If you just hold some sats on some casino exchange.
You’re not a bitcoiner if you just hold some sats on a coldcard.
You’re a Bitcoiner when you care enough to protect the protocol, and you do that by adding a node to hold a copy of the Leger and Run the protocol.

I’ve run a lightening node for several years now, used to rebalance and work to break even supporting the network.
Have not done this in a while, now channel flows are zero.
With all the gifted coders out there, why not the ability to automate intelligent auto rebalance, max channel dispersion, etc? This would dramatically increase the robustness of the network, and make the concentration of node much less.
@jack @ODELL @preston @Marty Bent @jack mallers @Michael Saylor
After reading ‘world for sale, by Javier Blas’ one wonders why these commodity traders don’t use Bitcoin.
Just a thought


Just was watching apple launch day and while they were talking environment carbon bullshit (I certainly believe we have a massive negative impact on the environment, just don’t believe these carbon offset financialized products and the nonesense they employ pretending are legit), I couldn’t help but think of the slaves in India and China making the products.
The biggest obstacle to mass adoption is technical knowledge.
@Marty Bent
Ironically, the masses will have to trust third parties.
Thoughts?
@Lyn Alden pls make your new book into audio, I will gift it to many people that would benefit tremendously from it.
@jack mallers when Canada 🇨🇦 ?
@jack when cash app in Canada ?
I just landed in New York, customs is a hot mess, I’ve been all over the place over last year. America is by far the slowest and longest lines to get into country. Why?
@Lyn Alden pls make your book available on audible with you narrating it. I will get a copy either way, but would prefer to listen to it, given time constraints (I can listen while commuting to work as example)
How come none of the Arab oil states clearly moving away from dollars haven’t put a significant bid to Bitcoin?
Is the complexity of Bitcoin tech the adoption stomper? Or is it the lack of knowledge of money?
Every platform using Bitcoin should have a toggle to sats.
