Gm nostriches. Happy Thursday to all those who celebrate, was “guided” towards joining a school trip with the youngest, thought “I get to” so “why not”, so no biking just standard stuff while #wifestr prepares for a few days away with siblings. 🫡 But that’s so mundane compared to the local, Welsh and Scottish elections, serious swings could take place, given these smaller elections tend to get more of the “extremes” out. Reform and greens look like they could do well, but short term that is just the driver of the next chapter. Keir will likely continue to dig his heals in (boring don’t care) everything grinds downwards, twitchy bond markets will see where things are going, uncertainty combined with likely more spending (green local councils will literally implode once they get any power ), so then at a larger scale, bond are connected with this, if you lend money to the government you have to believe in the unit of account (see my read, sorry graphs aren’t there), but how will old GBP get treated. I for one will likely take the chance to offload some, while there is still an exchange rate to btc, or gold (let’s be honest). When the dust settles after today, people will need to make decisions, 1) how the country will look and what we can do 2) how to protect the value of your time and energy (off the books money likely the way forward) and ultimately 3) whether you want to take a front row seat as wealth gets criminalised (maybe an extreme word, but I’m not leaving money in sight to find out) so get out, i bet Kate the Russian and @Basalto Fund are doing a brisk business with us Brits at the moment (need to sort this, Mstr heavy isa needs to sort itself out) 🫡🙌 Anyways, take it easy freaks, wish me luck with a class of 9 year olds that aren’t mine (remember, I get to, @Guy Swann ), and grab a #coffeechain and enjoy the show from where ever you may be. If you have a sofa to crash on in another country, I may look you up!! Finally, saw a video on a restomod f355. Lambo, you ain’t seeing any of my money when bitcoin reaches fair value (♾️)

Saw a video AGAIN telling me about how we were entering a 70s style inflationary period, and wondered why that might be the case when the 70’s inflation could be viewed through the lens of demonetising gold, with something similar taking place now. FYI, I’m not the best dinner party guest. Always, short article, lots of graphs 📊 exploring what appears to be going on with #gold #oil and #bitcoin.

Is this the point where someone says UK on the brink? Rates have increase 18% since the beginning of March. When does GBP read the room as holders take a bees line for the exit hatch.

Great work @Danny Knowles , great to hear about the latest “number go down” piece from @allen and Sasha (good to finally hear from him). Fascinating discussions on both the explosion of debts and the risks the “keynsians” will tell you about deflation, simply because it breaks the ponzi their system is built on. “Don’t worry guys, we can just increase demand (by handing out printed cash) which will lead to full employment, which is the aim of government, right?” https://fountain.fm/episode/xZ0Rg0teuaU6SUo0vdbm

Spending those quiet moments in a morning to read a couple of Marcus’s entries. Still waiting on news from Vegas I can get behind, so until then, it’s the asset and the sovereignty I like. Time well spent. image

Gm nostriches, entering my week on a Tuesday after a bank holiday yesterday (fyi, no bank holidays for Bitcoin and that’s how they stole the gold in the uk to fund World War One, cheers @Saifedean Ammous). Kids back from a 3 day camp, ruined from lack of sleep and not going enough attention to food so last night was a touch wild. But got to watch a view videos upping my fiat demise bloodlust (now to Hyde that from everyone at work) #coffeechain in hand, morning press ups done under the simpsonesque sky (a variant on the vanilla skys reference), my asset of choice nudging £60k (or was that world waking up to the UK being done) and going back to the start, a short week before 60 “presentations” land in my inbox next week…… 😫, but #wifestr goes away with siblings……. #dadrules coming into play, work hard, play hard. Anyways, keep at it freaks, we’re not going to build a better world without getting our hands dirty or ruffling a few fiat feathers

Gm nostriches, massively overdone today, but it is that day, so “May the fourth be with you”. ETF and Bitcoin treasuries are the easy, seductive dark side, promising power and fiat gains. Use the force as Yodi would, self custody, non-kyc, maybe some you’ve mined yourself, then trade with merchants you get value from. “Luke, use the force” don’t be a fiat brained person pussy. (If Obiwan said that, it would have been awesome). #coffeechain

Ge nostriches, awesome day in London, full family, aunts, cousins, bro and his fam and a whole lot of others. Have gifted each of my cousins some sats with tapsigner (cheers @Coinkite) and they appear to be holding, even if one cousin told be about his trading of shit coins (wife was pretty annoyed to hear that!!!) Have attempted to clear their minds slightly with some discussion on “the price is not down, the dollar 💵 is simply volatile”, but also passed over some @Based Trading Cards genesis packs for them to have some fun with. Also promised them all a few books for them to further immerse themselves into the Bitcoin world. Watch this space, they could be bitcoiners one day and I may have actually helped orange pilled someone!!!! Ice cream dessert was 😘👌 image
