What if I said we could end the Fed and abolish ICE
Yeah, that’d be pretty cool.

I asked ChatGPT when it thinks Bitcoin will finally catch on. What year, to be precise.
It told me 2032, and here are the reasons why (I largely agree with!)


“If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.”
- James Madison
My toddler does this fun thing now where everyday like clockwork she absolutely loses her shit from 4:00-5:00pm. Then she’s good.
I think we all should be given 1 hr each day where we just lose our shit, then we’re good! (Don’t harm other people of course. Just act like a lunatic and blow off steam for a little bit).
Yes


Society asks incomplete questions that bitcoiners often reject the premise to.
The questions “is the Fed independent” “can Trump fire the Fed chair” “who should control monetary policy” are the wrong questions to ask, or not getting to the core of the issue.
The reality is, monetary policy as it stands today is political power. It’s not about who controls the levers, it’s about the levers and the machine itself.
It’s about asking the questions that immediately gets you canceled or labeled a right wing nut in polite society.
Should the Fed even exist? The concentration of power in monetary policy creates an abusive relationship between said powers (whether it is the Fed as “independent” or the Fed as puppet for executive).
We should be relying on a transparent, open, rules-based system that’s predictable in nature. That is a much better and fairer system for money.
Can’t believe I’ve already been with @My First Bitcoin for over a month
The privilege of a lifetime to work in freedom tech and our work in empowering people around the world who need it most with bitcoin education and resources.
Freedom go up
Our world is filled with nuance. I refuse to be a part of or perpetuate purely partisan ideology, or engage with partisan hacks (who always have tribal and or/monetary incentives). They don’t, and can’t, seek truth.
There are massive, enormous problems to fix, a better world to envision, and there is no time for those kinds of unproductive people and conversations.
People in the real world give me hope. Those taking action. I deeply believe in the principles of Ubuntu — I am because we are; my humanity is inextricably linked to yours. Let’s do this 🫂

Is Bitcoin risk on or risk off this year?
lolz

Becoming a father
The greatest accomplishment and most meaningful thing I could have ever done with my time on this earth.
Nothing can get to or stop me. Nothing. The rest is bullshit compared to it!
If you want to follow an attempt at authenticity and original thought
If you want to follow someone not afraid to think out loud, constantly learning and evolving
If you want to follow someone not tied to tribal thought and , political boxes, or what one is *supposed* to think and say
If you want to follow someone not caring about ego, hubris, or thinking he’s better than you (he’s not)
If you want to follow someone focused on outcomes over ideology, fighting for a better world, admitting when he’s wrong, not afraid to stick to conviction
If you want to follow someone that is having a good time through it all
I’m your guy 🫡
Too much trust in institutions. Separate money from the state.
Decentralized freedom tech will save the world.
Do not take the bait of engaging with Mike Brock. He’s a bad faith actor.
He’s come to nostr to blast many of us, apparently. He’s a smart guy, I’d use to say he was my friend, but he gave up on Bitcoin and freedom tech like nostr because he doesn’t like some of the people that use it and can’t separate that from the underlying tech and freedom uses. He took it too far and personal with me.
I said I’ve opted out of current system and politics (although in practicality that isn’t 100% true I’m just very skeptical and pissed at it all) and I’m working to build parallel systems and see freedom go up around the world (including the U.S.).
He’s written lovely articles that include me and making assumptions akin to me supporting (whether directly or install) Nazis and fascists.
Just fair warning.
Gold all time high as criminal investigation opened into Powell
They want him out ASAP.
Midterm year. Want rates lower….


Patriots are gonna kick some ass tonight
Everyone focusing national and global.
Fighting with strangers on the internet.
Very few focusing local, and even fewer inward to yourself.
Build up and be an active member of your local community. Love and be kind to your neighbor. Support local business.
Gm props to Joe Keery for this album, it’s incredible. On repeat
