Created my first code contribution to a Bitcoin related open source project. Damn, does it feel good to have a sense of contributing to something useful. Thank you Satoshi!

Started (vibe) coding. Fuck this is awesome compared to coding before…

What would happen, if the US officially embraced Bitcoin and ditched gold, while BRICS do the opposite? Would the better money still prevail? What would be the decisive factors to determine the outcome?

A classic ode to trading and leverage:

Today I got my first “paycheck” from an open source project. Drop in the bucket, but can’t deny that felt good man.

Will try bitchat tonight at a concert. Wish me luck! 🍀 🤞

How masochistic can one be? Coffee drinkers: YES!

Visiting a new city (countries capital). Eagerly open bitchat and update geohash. 0 people. Not even one in the whole country… 😔

Bitcoin is not medium of exchange (MoE) OR store of value (SoV) OR unit of account (UoA). Bitcoin is money. I.e. it is MoE AND SoV AND UoA. It is all three to different people to varying degrees, based on their knowledge and circumstances/needs. Being censored by government? MoE seems more valuable to you. Living in high inflation? SoV seems more important to you. That is fine. If people focus and enhance one aspect that does not necessarily mean the others get worse. Lightning and Cashu improve MoE but do not deteriorate SoV or UoA. Self-custodial hodlers do not prevent MoE. On the contrary, if one aspect gets better it might lift-up the others. What good is a SoV if you cannot use it for payments eventually when you need/want to? Who will accept payment in a currency that is not worth anything? So don’t fight unless others try to take away your freedom. We in this together.

Can we agree to officially call bitchat users bitchads and bitchettes? @jack @calle
