"Money has spiritual energy. If you're spending blood money that comes with consequences." Incredible episode this really got me thinking… the proof of weapons network isn’t going to roll over without a fight. https://fountain.fm/episode/RhAeIYJ0FRB2yQ7BJJ5g View quoted note →

Learning Bitcoin Day 2 highlights In the last 18 months, I have attended more than a dozen Bitcoin conferences around the world. Each one has its own flavor, format, and vibe. But the one thing that is consistent is how powerful in person education and connection is. Learning bitcoin 2025 had a great format. Day, one, fundamentals and workshops. Day two, talks from a broad range of perspectives Q&A’s and even a full demo courtesy of @Damus @Seb Bunney and @Adam O’Brien gave fantastic talks, bringing an optimistic perspective on why bitcoin in the hands of everyday people is the way forward. @Scott Dedels interviewed the mayor of Vancouver Ken Sims about how bitcoin adoption is going at the city government level. If you want to learn about bitcoin the best thing you can do is attend to conference ask questions, gather resources, and network with Bitcoiners. See you next year in Vancouver! @Learning Bitcoin Foundation

There needs to be a manual or guide to support onboarding merchants, giving them various options for receiving bitcoin/lightning and how to properly secure it. Maybe I’ll make it if it doesn’t exist. If there is such a thing I’d like to check it out. #asknostr

Seems legit

Mariners game with my pops last night. Sat in the nosebleeds and had a great time.

BTC Balkans is what happens when an unwavering bitcoiner @Nackoo2000 gets to plan a conference. If you’re in Europe this is a conference you should definitely attend. BTCBalkans.com the Balkans countries are uniting!

Screen grabs from filming in Bulgaria 🇧🇬 One of the core messages in the film is that building on bitcoin means more than stacking sats and writing code. Progress is happening day by day… now in the post production stage it’s slow going but the film is coming together!

A friend of mine @LukeMikic21 just had his 4 YouTube channels shut down out of the blue. His entire business and 6 years of building rug pulled with no explanation other than “dangerous information.” Not your platform, not your business… content creators need to be resilient and own their businesses.

Getting ready for Winter 🌲🪵 A neighbor cut down a cedar tree and instead of paying to dispose of it I’m picking it up for free and using it to heat my home. This was just one truck load and there’s a lot more… from a single tree I can heat the place for several months. Meanwhile the state government here in Washington is working to ban this…

Bitcoin IS a medium of exchange. Gym session in Varna, Bulgaria paid for with lightning. ⚡️

After two weeks eating carnivore I threw in the towel. Added eggs, yogurt, cheese and fruit back into the mix. Probably didn’t do it right still drinking coffee and maybe another week or two I would have felt better but it was a good experiment. Digestion was great. I never felt bloated or tired. 2 meals a day in an 8 hour eating window was quite doable. Easier to intermittently fast than with carbs. Sugar and carb cravings were only significant day 1-2 after that I didn’t notice them. The biggest challenge was feeling sluggish riding bikes and climbing. I didn’t have the same drive to get after it. I understand this is normal and maybe it changes after getting fully into ketosis but it was too much of a sacrifice with the last days of beautiful weather here in the PNW to be feeling physically weak. Mental energy was great, maybe better than when eating normally. My girlfriend, who has had rheumatoid arthritis for the past few years has been doing great with it and has significantly decreased inflammation. I am currently not allowed to eat my yogurt + fruit dessert around her… understandable. Overall I can see how carnivore is a great tool for dealing with gut/autoimmune issues and losing weight/cutting fat but I’m not convinced it’s optimal for high-level fitness especially endurance.

In business, passion only gets you so far.

I actually like Dennis Porter as a person. Met him and his brother in El Salvador and he’s truly a nice guy. But the announcement of a “pro-bitcoin” candidate for Governor of California doesn’t deliver on the hype he created. The story of the boy who cried wolf comes to mind… clickbait doesn’t work on bitcoiners.

Trust is risk.

One of the biggest takeaways from listening to Jeff Booth: Technology = winner take most. Protocols = winner take all. To fully understand Jeff’s perspective, you must let go of the Fiat conditioning. Bitcoin is not “going up”- the entire premise of NGU technology only applies in the fiat standard era. 1 BITCOIN = 1 bitcoin. Just a few thoughts on my morning walk. Had some good conversations with friends this past weekend who have fallen for the digital assets/shitcoin narratives… it’s not easy to get past such deeply held beliefs about how money works. Sadly, I believe pain will be a better teacher than me.

When I first came across Dr. Judy Woods work on directed energy weapons use during 9/11 I realIed my understanding had holes in it. PBD does a terrible job interviewing but in my opinion Dr Wood has the best thesis out there on how the trade centers came down. “The entire planet watched, but didn’t know what they were looking at.”
