You know what content you never see in Bitcoin? Middle ground maxing... You see the extremes like "1BTC is generational wealth", you see whale bling, but you don't see any 15-30 btc lifestyle's or models for the now. I guess maybe upper middle-class 2017+ bitcoiners are either living their life not talking about it (congrats!), waiting for another 10x, or hopefully just continuing to build. Do you know of any content that discusses this range that focuses on the now as apposed to some future price prediction? Seems like some fiat CPA turned Maxi could do something interesting in that range. (I have seen some stuff that starts at 40 btc modeling a retirement plan but nothing less).

Worth a watch.

#Bitcoin If you can't afford these hardware wallets, you can still secure your Bitcoin it is simply a different path. Put in the work to learn Bitcoin. Air gap and open source Passport - Foundation Devices hardware wallet is my favorite in the market. User friendly enough for anyone to use from a newbie to advanced super nerd.

Self custody is finally attainable. Secure your Bitcoin with an unprecedented combination of elegance and ease of use.

ColdCard is my second favorite and as a company play an incredibility valuable role in the community with other products and ingenuity. Others have roles and are useful for many people in their journey (and as additional keys in multisig setup's). TLDR: I am greatful for Sparrow Wallet, Passport and ColdCard are powerful.

I watched John Adams (The HBO mini series) again last night. The last episode when he is in the last chapter of life and reviews the painting of the signing of the declaration of independence he is disturbed by its depiction of unity and orderliness, the idea that something that was so staggeringly profound and uncertain for him (and all involved) would be remembered as a decisive moment without the context of extreme uncertainties and the turmoil of the time seemed to be unfathomable. He says "I consider the true history of our revolution to be lost forever." The relationships portrayed in this show are worthy of consideration, despite any artistic license or revisionist history.

After April 2024 the war begins. As Biontic once said, prepare your Nostr code words and develop underground railroad resistance networks. "Take Luck"

If you need to sell bitcoin for cash on a regular basins for whatever reasons, we should communicate privately and set a routine to make this happen. I need more routine sizeable private arrangements for buying bitcoin. I would happily pay ATM level markup fees for that. Electricity is to expensive here to have any mining buds locally and the awesome robosats etc... Are less optimal for the routine... Also I prefer to hand cash over or at least have options to not electronically connect transactions.

If I could meet anyone from Nostr in real life, I would like it to be AK. @AK 👸🏻

@Bitcoin Nostrich Thanks for getting it sorted and back to life.

Looks like my Nip5 has me screaming into the void? NostrBitcoin.com is out of service? Hope it is temporary. If anyone knows who hosts/runs this could you let me know?

I still have NostrGram bookmarked on the machine and on my phone in some desperate hope it someday is revived. #Nostrhistory #Nostrgram

There is hope if you embody it.

Apparently North Korea just launched a missile and Japan is broadcasting to take cover (Okinawa)

I am going to the Plan B forum Oct 20-21 in Lugano, Switzerland specifically to hear Dr. Natalie Smolenski talk about the Satoshi Papers. The Papers will feature essays seeking to clarify what self-sovereign, sound money implies for the optimal generative relating of state and society—both within the United States and worldwide. This will be my first Bitcoin conference. Anyone else going? https://www.satoshipapers.org https://www.txbitcoinfoundation.org/about

"Incumbents want to frame all change in terms that do not upset the conditions affording them standing in a society. Oligarchs, priests, and politicians first do no harm to the systems of their authority. A secular shift occurs when a people’s authority does". -theyblinked- #theyblinked #nostr

"Governments are largely run by parties dumber and more self-serving than capital: a mangle of cynical confidence game operators playing bit parts in their party’s implementation of a Rube Goldberg machine that takes in taxes and spits out favors and war." -theyblinked- #theyblinked

The best protection against temptation in monetary policy is an unforgeably scarce, decentralized protocol money which results in the possibility of an enlightened and stability-oriented society. #Bitcoin is a machine to reboot civilization. #theyblinked

"Independence dates for widely recognized states earlier than 1919 should be treated with caution, since prior to the founding of the League of Nations, there was no international body to recognize nationhood, and independence had no meaning beyond mutual recognition of de facto sovereigns (the role of the League of Nations was effectively taken over by the United Nations after the Second World War). See also: disputed territories. Many countries have some remote (or fantastically remote) symbolic foundation date as part of their national mythology, sometimes artificially inflating a country's "age" for reasons of nationalism, sometimes merely gesturing at a long and gradual process of the formalizing national identity. Such dates reflect not the formation of a state (an independent political entity), but of a nation (an ethnic or cultural grouping), terms that are often conflated in the context of nation states."

9 #coups in former French colonies in less than 3 years - incl. #Mali #Guinea #Burkina Faso #Chad #Niger and #Gabon. Covid games certainly added to political instability and weakening of the institutions. Probably going to see further increase of radicalization and leftism in many countries based on what has been ongoing during last 4 years. “in 2024, 4 of the world's largest countries and territories will hold #elections that will shape global affairs during the second half of the decade. In March, #Russia is scheduled to hold a presidential election (to appoint its leader until 2030). Between April and May, #India will hold general elections to appoint the government and parliament that will lead the country until 2029. In June, the #EU will hold bloc-wide elections to appoint members of the European Parliament for the 2024-2029 period, which will also result in a new European Commission. Finally, the United States will hold legislative and presidential elections for the 2025-2028 period. Combined, these elections will cover a #population of roughly 2.3 billion people and a #GDP of approximately $42 trillion, and their results will set the tone for global interactions into the 2030s” #hashtags #war #news #nostr #change
