Omar Suleiman and Yasir Qadhi are starting to notice how legacy social media works against them.
We could see another wave of Muslim Nostr-pilling soon inshaAllah
One of the main reasons that some nobody like me ended up having to write a book like this is that scholars that analyze bitcoin do it from a hyper fixation on Fiqh that ends up not being very useful or practical.
Like scholarly analysis will immediately narrow itself to legal classification about whether it’s ‘mal’ or ‘thaman’ or whatever instead of asking what kind of moral order it enables, or the possibility that it could resist institutional riba and state control, or how it could empower the individual Muslim.
This is the tragedy of "Fiqh Maximalism" as it applies to Bitcoin.
And in that vacuum, ordinary Muslims (like you and me!) who actually live under the tyranny of fiat have to step up and articulate the vision the scholars were supposed to. nostr:note17akagek00jwyarv90ceap5av7gv8xvfkxxn923r5ffad4zvzg4lskx3mu7

My barber really likes the book and wants me to help him get set up with a cold wallet now. I'll also help him get set up with Square for payments inshaAllah.
