The impact of Jesus on culture https://fountain.fm/clip/laBuFXZo0m6ZAMKXAjJD For some time I have been fascinated by the idea that Jesus life and words have impacted western culture in ways most of us do not understand. Those that do not believe in Jesus don't see it. Those that do are not really aware of how deep His impact has been. I clipped a short segment of [David Gornoski](https://x.com/DavidGornoski) talking about this on the [Bob Murphy Show](

It bugs me how so many bitcoiners seem to really trust encryption when it comes to their bitcoin but do not seem to realize this also applies to files. Bitcoiner's will trust the bitcoin to be on every node but encrypting a file and putting it in on AWS is foolish. I dunno. It bugs me. Makes me wonder if they actually understand bitcoin or encryption. If you are the only one that has the key and the key is good, it is not gonna be cracked. If you doubt this, why do you trust your wealth to encryption?

Hot take: At best Monero is a privacy R&D project for Bitcoin. As a project it has different goals. Much lower in the grand scheme of humanity.

New footage of the assassination attempt on Trump. This video was captured by @realDJStew724 on Twitter and @RealDJStew724 on Youtube. He was arrested and his phone confiscated. He released this video on Youtube. Posting on satellite.earth for posterity sake. Pretty wild to watch it go down. Incredibly damning for the Secret Service as well as law enforcement.

If something like Trump speaking at the largest bitcoin conference didn't happen this year it would have happened at some point in the future. Maybe a different guy but it was bound to happen. Just like the ETFs were bound to happen. I swear some of the takes on this stuff show a serious lack of critical thinking. A narrow focus on one's own beliefs without considering the society we live in. As bitcoin rises in market price it attracts more people. Most people are statists. Those that hold bitcoin have more wealth an with wealth comes influence. These things attract politicians. Politicians seek the support of those with power and money. We know we don't need the state or politicians but that will not stop what is happening. See it for what it is. The new phase of bitcoin's slow takeover of everything. It isn't gonna be neat and clean and ideologically pure. All that said. I'm not changing what I'm doing or what I believe but my head is not in the sand. Not gonna waste time being mad at statists for being what they are.
