Nostr Vlog 9. Core vs. Knots. I encourage you to research this subject and come to your own conclusion. Regardless of what you choose, you will learn something in the process. I personally do not want to store and relay additional data that is unnecessary on my node. This is primarily why I choose Knots and spam filtering. I also believe it’s important to have the blockchain size limited as much as possible so individuals can still afford to run nodes in the future. Lastly, I have not seen a valid reason to increase the OP_RETURN data carrier limit, it provides no value so why change it? Where is the incentive coming from? Let me know your thoughts and what you run on your node. #bitcoin

Still going. This counts as today’s Vlog. On my to buy Bitcoin, drink coffee and hug my family.

Nostr Vlog 8 Personal reaction to @Ben Justman🍷's Vlog about the unique characteristic of Bitcoiners that you should think deeply about. Speaking to the parents of young children here. Would your kids appreciate in 15-20 years that you went full Maxi and sold everything (including your time) to stack as much BTC as possible? Likely yes. However, is there a point of diminishing returns where you will be giving up precious time with your young kids just for the sake of stacking sats? Absolutely. It goes without saying our kids would prefer more present, quality time with us over anything of monetary value. Bitcoin is scarce, time with your kids is even more so. As a parent a major aspect of Bitcoin I appreciate is that I will use it to quit trading my time away from family. You going to wait for another cycle to enjoy time with your kids? Too late, they’re grown. Think about it.

GM Nostr Vlog 7 Too many people are waiting around for someone to tell them what they should do in life to get what they desire. They want things but they don’t want to do what it takes to have them. Life doesn’t work that way. Wants are infinite, and therefore valueless. Actions like “being” and “doing” are scarce and will lead you to “having” what you want. Do the hard thing, you already know what it is. PoW: 17 miles, 1,400ft elevation. Being and doing this work so that I may HAVE the experience of riding bikes with my sons when they are young men in 20 years and beyond.

Nostr Vlog 6 What does your food sovereignty look like? During times of calmer geopolitical climate, it pays to get things like how to feed your family figured out. Storms will come. Don’t be an NPC and think the grocery store will always be there.

I’ve been traveling for a few days. Tonight I am home and all 3 of my kids are sitting on top of me on a single corner of the couch. Bitcoin is great, but I already have my wealth in my arms.
