At its core, Bitcoin is a coding technology enabling self-reflection. Throughout history, code-related innovations—from writing to the printing press—have similarly empowered humanity to reject false authority and thereby save energy that is wasted on worship of false authorities. This is why the first verse in the Quran is about technology: "Read! In the Name of your Lord. Who taught by the pen.Taught man that which he knew not"

Being Austrian can make you feel like a soggy schnitzel, all heavy and down in the dumps. But being an Austrian Nostrian is like a perfectly crispy, golden schnitzel straight outta the pan.. pure delight, sizzlin’ with joy!

The Quran and Tax Evasion You might be surprised to know that the narrative of Prophet Moses (Musa) and Al-Khidr (also known as the "the guided one") mentioned in the Quran, specifically in Surah Al-Kahf (Chapter 18), verses 58–74, is partly about tax evasion. Moses (peace be upon him) expressed his desire to accompany a servant of God (later identified as Al-Khidr) whom God had blessed with "special knowledge and mercy". Al-Khidr agreed, but on the condition that Moses would not question his actions, even if they seemed strange. As they traveled together, they came upon a group of people who owned a boat. Al-Khidr went to the boat and damaged it by making a hole in its bottom. Moses was shocked and said: "Have you made a hole in it to drown its people? Indeed, you have done something grave!" Al-Khidr reminded him gently: "Did I not tell you that you would not be able to have patience with me?" Moses apologized and asked to be forgiven for his forgetfulness, reaffirming his commitment to patience. Later, Al-Khidr explained the wisdom behind his action: "Indeed, there was a king ahead of them who seized every seaworthy ship by force. So, I intended to damage it, so that the king would leave it alone, because the ship belonged to poor people who needed it to earn their living"
