A philosophical exploration of money, debt, and Bitcoin. Discover how our financial system functions as a mechanism of enslavement.

What legal rights would you sacrifice in order to ensure all natural rights were honored?

@Brandon Gentile is an amazing warrior for truth. Had a blast talking with him. He is my people.

If you want to understand earthquakes, you need to understand tectonics. If you want to understand economcis. you need to understand ethics. How much do we talk ethics? 👀 #bitcoin #nostr

I think a lot of people live as though their lives aren’t real.

“What the world does not afford, no subject can value.” 👀

Hip mobility is to your body what #bitcoin is to your money.

Being, all the way down, is relational.

If it’s not #bitcoin, it’s just trust all the way down.

On ‘In God We Trust’ 👀 “This inscription is either a brazen deception or a chilling confession. If it exists merely to pacify the public, then it is an outright lie: a calculated illusion constructed to obscure the system’s true nature. But if taken at face value, it reveals something far more concerning: the system’s governors do not merely manage money; they fancy themselves gods, wielding control over wealth, prosperity, and the very lives of millions with divine impunity. And here lies the cruel irony of modern progress: even the ancient pagans knew they were not gods.” -Modern Chains

A weak man can consume. A strong man can create. A weak woman dissolves. A strong woman generates.

Some say monetary debasement is like slavery. They make the same error my hypothetical friend Bob does saying, “This is like sitting on a pinecone.” No, Bob… you sat on a pinecone. There is no “like” here. Debasement is slavery.

Each of us is a rational moral agent. Even if we would rather pretend not. That’s empowering. And even more terrifying.

I can’t look away.

The ethical corruption of economics kills civilizations.

Bitcoin is monetary yoga toes for civilization.

the transition is a messy and tough process, but I think when we denominate our lives in bitcoin, it kind of defuses the anxiety bomb. If you are always converting your work and the value you create in the world into bitcoin, and spending bitcoin, you always benefit. Cheap sats or more purchase power. The circular economy is ideal, but even if we are working a fiat job, “spend and replace” still de-energizes the fiat world. we want all the energy from fiat world to flow into bitcoin. it will slosh back and forth in the transition, the daily volitility, but the long term straight 45 up and to the right growth line is being driven by one singular principle: moral money is more valuable than immoral money. Every little cut we put in the beast helps. We will take fiat and central banking down

Syllogisms: 1) If something is broken, then it has stopped. 2) Nothing stops this train. 3) Therefore, Modus Tollens, the train is not broken. 1) The train is the monetary system. 2) The train is not broken. 3) Therefore, Modus Ponus, the monetary system is not broken.
