Every congregation needs a story as a shared belief by its members. The minimal requirement for the story is that it is possible, i. e. devoid of contradictions or logical fallacies. Stories that are possible but improbable are harder to preach and need a degree of bullying, coercion, or force to align the believers. In the long run these will lilely bleed out. Stories that are not only possible but also probable stand for themselves and can survive a long time.

My STACK SATS wallet has arrived. Finally, I have a proper way to carry my OpenDimes and Satcards (@npub1wu4aye7ll0lnrrg638e90sehzsgpzx5t39t3mwl05aa0d0ap08esdz3vw0). There is space for and fiat muggle bills, too. Thank you #[0]

Ten years ago today, I got delivery of this espresso machine, the Rocket Giotto Evoluzione V2. It is an investment that has produced excellent returns for all this time. To be precise, seven thousand nine hundred fifty-three coffees. #coffeechain pv

700 km car ride today … pocast one - enjoyed „Bitcoin’s Wall’d Garden with Eric Wall“. Diverse, dedicated, expanding. I am more positive on Lightning ⚡️than Eric thinking there will be more wallet choices between non-custodial (WoS) and running your own node (with 100+ channels and 10 BTC liquidity for fast reliable routing) #[0] https://www.whatbitcoindid.com/podcast/bitcoins-walld-garden

We know computers beat humans at chess and we still are interested in following Magnus et al. (similarly, we have seen Roger, Raphael, Jannik, Carlos and we still play 🎾 ourselves). Meaning: we are not interested in following human tragedy, failure. We admire winners for have been exposed to losing, not for winning.

There is too much stuff on the internet that nobody reads (not just my posts 😂). Perhaps the main purpose of that body of information is to train AI models. What if AI rates all of us and will one day pay us for providing our thoughts to feed the model?

Related to trading (of which I don't know anything) I remember a quote by Seneca that I paraphrase and remember like this: "He is in debt, whether he owes to another man or to good fortune". Stay humble and stack sats.

pv ☀️ I am happy I joined you guys last December and at Nostrica; before the arrival of the trolls, the impersonators, and the engagement farmers. I just noticed (😂) I have become too trusting on here, chatting to impersonators.
