Just a super based answer from Chat GPT on why fiat stands in direct conflict with the natural state of a free market. Here’s how it concluded the answer: 🔥 The Core Tension A deflationary system is voluntary, merit-based, and decentralized. An inflationary fiat system is coercive, debt-based, and centrally planned. They are fundamentally incompatible. One promotes sovereignty and abundance. The other demands control and perpetual growth to avoid collapse.

Another great conversation from Darius Dale on the state of the economy and the 4th turning:

Nothing better than working on Bitcoin things on a Friday night ⚡️🙌🏽

Getting your friends to see the merit of saving in Bitcoin is one hell of a rewarding feeling, especially when it’s the ones who have been getting crushed in the fiat economy while doing their best.

Few things are better than catching up with old friends and seeing them crush it in life, especially when they’re on a Bitcoin standard like you 💪🏽

Excited to start reading The Big Print tonight. I’m working on a channel to do the same thing @Lawrence Lepard did with this book, make money and bitcoin easier to understand for everyone who isn’t already down the 🐇🕳️

Stay humble, stack sats. Gn Nostr ✌🏽

I’m retiring the phrase “I’m feeling like a million bucks” from my vocabulary and using “I’m feeling like a hundred millions sats” from now on ⚡️

Just watched this Reason video on Nostr which does a good job of explaining why it’s so powerful in only 5 minutes. The perfect video to share with someone who’s unsure what Nostr is:

I’m going to share some of these slides and points with my family and friends in real-estate. Such a brilliant explanation of the benefits of adding Bitcoin to your balance sheet as a real estate owner or investor: Cheers @preston and @Leon

I’ve been working on a YouTube channel to help make complicated topics a little less complex, and finished my 2nd series on money titled How Money Broke. I can’t wait to launch the channel and share what I found and who I learned from. Instead of just making my own videos, each lesson will be a combination of videos I made either explaining a topic in detail or summarizing/introducing great videos I’ve learned from, like those from Lyn Alden, Ray Dalio, Robert Breedlove, and more. Stay tuned Nostr.

I remember learning a little bit about Jack Johnson as a kid, but I’m really going to enjoy hearing the 2nd part of this History on Fire series on the man. What a character, what a fighter, what a guy:

I’d love to ask any politician who believes the economy is doing great why we’re seeing credit card delinquency rates explode higher

Running into a friend you haven’t seen in years who’s got a family now and doing great in their career is peak serendipity surprise.

This is a pretty novel approach for dealing with micro plastics where we up cycle them into useful materials, and in this instance graphene, which has been pretty hard to make economically feasible:

Fell in love with History on Fire, and I’ve loved every episode so far, but the Teddy Roosevelt one surprised me the most so far:

Gm Nostr. One of my favorite things to do at the beginning of the day is to see what happened today in history:
