Happy for you Knicks fans

When progressives and MAGA go to the polls “voting for change” Happy Memorial Day

What’s the market for betting the U.S. gets some of Iran’s Bitcoin during these deal talks?

Me when I tell my bitcoin friends I ate vegan pizza on bitcoin pizza day !

Trump wants to get out of going to Don Jr’s wedding so bad he’s thinking about bombing Iran instead

Biggest buy signals in the world you’re welcome

If you’ve been DCA’ing sats this year You’re a mf’ing baller. So many bears, and so many bullish things happening in the background. Probably one of the best times to stack. I mean, you should stack all the time. But also stack now…and fast!

We at @My First Bitcoin are known for free, open source, and independent Bitcoin education for the globe. But this year as I and the finance and admin team build out our finance/bitcoin management infrastructure and transparency dashboards, we plan to open source this model as well. From a U.S. based 501c3 nonprofit operating on a bitcoin standard, what would you like to see in this transparency dashboard (above and beyond details shared in annual 990s)? My goal is to have MFB be the most transparent, self-sovereign, proof-of-work driven nonprofit in the world, and to give other nonprofits a model for how you can be mission driven, transparent, and run on a bitcoin standard while also running reports, audits and compliance required for a 501c3

Gm 🌞 It’s a great day to build freedom tech global citizens around the world can use against global tyrants ☕️

Down goes Massie simply because he had the balls to call the Iran War a bullshit war (which it is), lead the charge for the release of the Epstein files, and call out MAGA/Trump bullshit Doesn’t mean I agreed with everything from him. But he’s a principled American hero.

Buckle up

Elizabeth Warren is going to unplug Bitcoin when she finds out about this

Gm Today is going to be a great day 🌞

Why do I care about Clarity? I’m into Bitcoin for human rights, financial freedom, and how it supports families, communities, and empowers everyday people. Clarity feels big in that it could very well inshrine into law protections for open source developers and lean into a future economy that brings prosperity to people to more freely engage with, use, and feel comfortable holding Bitcoin. It matters!

“I don’t like crypto, I don’t get it. Criminals use it. Republicans love it. Trump has corruption all over it. I much prefer my JP Morgan chase bank dollars. Jamie, looking good by the way. We still on for dinner tonight?” - Elizabeth Warren at today’s clarity act markup

The concept of Bitcoin can be very challenging for lawmakers. Many cannot comprehend that there is money that can be sent peer to peer without permission needed. Post 9/11 every American has grown far too comfortable with a complete lack of privacy and civil liberties. Many lawmakers truly believe that you must get permission and the government have complete access to your banking data at any time, as the only effective way to combat crime. Sure. And that’s totalitarian. That’s 1984. That’s a cashless society. That’s a ban on peer to peer.

Happy clarity markup day to all who celebrate

Good morning from the Senate Banking Committee. We’re minutes away from a markup of a landmark crypto bill, the Clarity Act. Reporters are huntin...

I’m consistently mourning that I wish to live in a world and society where people have (and want to have!) high agency. We live in a low agency world more and more, with people looking to corrupt sources to fix their problems. Bitcoin — and freedom tech broadly — will be available in its most self covering form to those who want it. Problem? Most don’t want self sovereignty or agency. They want permanent, centralized caretakers. But what we can do is continue to chip into that populous — get more and more people who are actually interested in learning truth, finding agency, sovereignty and freedom, and looking to change the world. It’s happened before in human history —it only takes a few, or sometimes even just one.
