Fleeing Canada is something I never thought I would hear… but it’s 2025 and that’s where we’re at.
This week’s pod is a wild story with tons of valuable information regarding circular economies, building businesses and living in alignment with your values.
Spicy thumbnail for this one too👌
Carnivore day eight, I am starting to think this diet is optimal for a more sedentary lifestyle. I haven’t had nearly the same energy during my bike rides or bouldering sessions. I will remain open minded for another two weeks but very unlikely I stick with his diet long-term.
4 lightning transactions from @Learning Bitcoin Foundation 2025.
I scooped up some coffee, sats for cash (non-kyc) a sweet bitcoin hat and of course, The Hidden Cost of Money by @Seb Bunney@FunkCoffee@Bitcoin Well
Spending bitcoin is what makes it real. HODLing, aka watching a number of a screen is lame, imo.
Making progress on the film. First scene rough cut complete. Learning a lot in the process and excited to see how other scenes come together. Stretching my brain during this phase makes editing much more enjoyable than just cutting unusable footage and organizing. Onward!
One of my neighbors threw a block party today. Kids playing in the street, burgers, lawn chairs… It was a reminder how nice it is to get away from the noise online and just connect with neighbors.
Carnivore day 5. I’m not giving up before the end of September but I’m definitely feeling suboptimal. Mentally energized but physically exhausted.
Carb/sugar cravings were only significant on day 1. Slept a little better and woke up less tired today.
Onward.
First teaser for my documentary, Build on Bitcoin.
5 weeks into post production, still a long ways to go but here’s a little peek into the film. I can’t say we’re going to win an Oscar but I can tell you it’s going to be unlike any bitcoin documentary out there.
My main takeaway is that 99.9% of people don’t care about the “tech.” Nobody knows what a protocol is and why it matters…
Therefore the entrepreneur’s job is to use Nostr as a tool to bring real value and solve problems for people rather than conform to the protocol at all costs.
I learned something similar when interviewing the guys at @npub1a0gc...dw7g - they found a gap in the market and simply solved restaurants’ problems, reinforcing their products/services with bitcoin/nostr rather than make them the center of the business itself.
Bullish on @Satlantis: Social Events and Nostr nonetheless. Svetski makes some very good points here and this will certainly trigger the hardcore Nostr users 👌
The reason why filmmaking, storytelling or even podcasting are powerful tools is not because they can logically explain something. It is because they can make you feel something.
Day 3 on the carnivore diet- slept poorly and woke up quite tired. Found out I’m technically not doing it fully by drinking coffee but I don’t care, I am not giving up coffee, or nicotine for that matter.
