I am really wondering if we will ever really know the truth behind the Charlie Kirk assassination, it smells worse than the face value. I believe it was not just a lone nut job with a rifle and a marksman like skill set capable of a 200+yd single shot kill with impeccable timing during his content. I suspect there are deeper incentives. It smells like a Franz Ferdinand, MLK, or similar event. What comes next may be uncharted, there are many, many people that have been radicalized, but potentially in an intentional way as a incendiary event from a foreign or domestic interest just playing the public against each other. Time will tell, but stay vigilant, the landscape is full of tinder and a fire may be coming.

We used to be a proper country:

Listening to this one, but much of it is stuff I already know, gives a decent overview of some energy logistics for mining:

Mining fiat again today. I will likely share the podcasts I am running in the background.

I am so behind right now, if someone zapped me a week off, I would still have to work to catch up. Mining fiat is a burden at the moment as I want to be working on projects I am building out instead. Just because you are early to Bitcoin does not mean you were lucky. Life can come at you hard and then you are depleted. Still stacking what I can, but financial challenges are eating my stack until I can get to a better position. Car payment is almost done, which will help, but I really need to get my eBay shop transferred into a btcpay server and list up some more of my things to balance the rift.

Stay Humble, stack sats:

just got back from mining fiat, but I have a ton of work to do all the time. So many projects and I am trying to find some balance. Now if some of them would become more profitable, life would start to get back on track.

Now on to @walker and @Jameson Lopp I am not sure I fully agree, but an interesting listen.

BTC before Core v30

nuCore got in touch with me.

I am thinking about writing a book about my Bitcoin journey. It has been a wild ride. It was actually a suggestion from @npub1jt0x...6q3n, when we were discussing things. I think it would be an interesting journey, but I am wondering if it is a project you might support, if I started a geyser for it, so that I could have a little runway for writing time. Still on the fence about it, but I have been wireframing a bit of the structure in my head as I mine fiat.

GM nostr. I spent 8 hours reorganizing my garage yesterday and still have another 8 to do next weekend or sooner. I have so much to do on my todo list it is becoming a bit of a bucket list.
