Thanks @Frank Corva for this excellent article! What I like most about it is the way you provide reference to current events and break them down in simple terms that the every day reader can digest easily. I also like how you respectfully push back against our elected officials' strategies while simultaneously giving insight as to why the legislative/political moves they propose will not work as they intend. Often what they propose is a virtue signal to their base. History shows us (as you mentioned) that these strategies to centrally control markets leads to shortages. The exact opposite of what they intended to create. Basic principles of economics need to be applied. E. Warren is so far out of touch with basic principles of economics. If there was a genuine attempt by those who have legislative power to implement "hard money" economics, maybe we would see a shift. I believe your approach/writing style is what is needed to get the powers that be to reconsider their policies. These elected officials are immune to being roasted by their political opponents. The way your writing lays out the cause and effect of their actions will hopefully resonate. This article is amazing and needs to be unpacked, and studied by more people. We need more of this Frank. Nice job. Keep it coming brother! View article →

Folks trying to explain, figure out, improve, Bitcoin…. Just leave it alone and enjoy it. Stack sats, stop watching/listening to all these podcasts, influencers, and “experts”.

Great read. Thanks for sharing. @Mason View article →

What if we could drop phone numbers and cellphone network providers completely and communicate solely via voice over internet protocol or by way of nostr relays. What would that practically look like? What industries/markets would that disrupt?

Can someone unpack this in non technical language please. View quoted note →

Great video! “the actual freedom of an old car in 2026.” You discussed freedom in this video in very practical ways that most people can understand. I wonder if you’ve ever been exposed to other freedom technologies, like bitcoin, that allow peer to peer exchange of value and property without permission. You covered a lot in a short video. Great content! Stay safe. You can reach me on nostr, another freedom technology: @j This was my response to this guys video. Watch this guys old car video… I wind up buying him a coffee here: buymeacoffee.com/mitchelleisenbraun I would have rather zapped him some sats but… If he understands the freedom he talks about in his short video, he would perfectly understand the power of bitcoin. Let’s hope we see him on nostr soon…

““When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’ “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭25‬:‭31‬-‭40‬ ‭NIV‬‬

#AmazingFacts "1854 a slab of marble donated by Pope Pius IX arrived in Washington, D.C. He had it engraved “A Roma Americae,” or “From Rome to America,” as a sign of goodwill. He had sent it over to be included in the Washington Monument, which was then under construction. Many foreign governments had sent similar contributions to honor America’s first president. The Know Nothings, however, had no intention of allowing a gift from the Pope to be included in the Washington Monument. They were certain the stone was a sign of darker intentions by the Pope. So on March 9, 1854, under cover of darkness, a group of these anti-Catholics broke into the yard, stole the stone, and after damaging it with hammers they dropped it in the Potomac River. No one was ever credibly accused of the crime, despite reward offers and a public outcry. Many years later, however, after a tip, the stone was discovered… only to disappear again. But today, there is a stone from the Pope in the Washington Monument, this one was provided by Pope John Paul II in 1982."
