People on nostr sometimes think that I’m catfishing. I get it.
I’ve hung out with a decent amount of the people on nostr irl. That’s one reason that I love nostr so much, I’ve made legitimate friends here. 🫶🏻

The Bitcoin community is vast and diverse.
Like any large group, it inevitably includes some bad actors, people who have abused others or had troubling associations, including with figures like Jeffrey Epstein (whether they were abusers themselves or not).
At the same time, the Bitcoin community is full of remarkable individuals who use this technology to resist abuse, combat human rights violations, promote financial freedom, and empower the vulnerable around the world.
Both realities can coexist.
Don’t let the actions of a few abusers hijack or define the story of Bitcoin. The principles it embodies. Decentralization, transparency, self-sovereignty, and resistance to centralized control shines brighter than any shadows cast by flawed individuals.
The light of what Bitcoin truly represents will ultimately outshine the darkness.
I did my taxes today and I’ve deleted 10 notes about it.
I need to soften my language while speaking in public about funding pedos and the war machine.
Thank you for listening. I really appreciate it.
Sadly, Virginia Giuffre (survivor of Epstein) passed away after the podcast was recorded but before it was released. I spoke about her during the podcast. It was heartbreaking what followed. 💔

I used to believe in the system. I truly thought the government would protect us.
Then, as a survivor advocate, I directly served multiple survivors of Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and their co-conspirators. That experience shattered my faith. Almost immediately, I began speaking out against the state and I said openly that the Epstein case had turned me into an an-cap.
I hope people now understand why.
