Remember, remember, once in September

Graphics by @Change this if you want - for our halfing party. Tripple purpose: halfing party on the boat, boating accident & lifebuoy for the world.

It is incredible how far we have come in the last year and a half. The broader market is starting to recognize Bitcoin as the outstanding asset for which we have seen it for a long time. Larry Fink is doing its bidding. The DOE agreed to cancel its plans to "emergency-survey" Bitcoin miners and to delete related data received or to be received—Lindy effect in full play. Even in our erratic world, it is still reasonable to expect a rational outcome.

I enjoyed listening to @Samson Mow and his rational takes. Thanks, @petermccormack, for fostering relevant conversations.

I upgraded to core lightning v24.02 and RTL v0.15.0, opened my first dual-funded channel ... and opened a stable channel (https://github.com/toneloc/stable-channels). A stable channel is a lightning channel that maintains a stable USD balance for one of the channel partners.

Perspective 1: I made a great investment in Bitcoin racking up my portfolio performance. Perspective 2: Awhy did I leave most of my wealth behind on the FIAT Titanic?

The talks here at #BA24 are outstanding 🎯, unique, novel. During the energy session, brilliantly introduced and managed by @Troy Cross , @Daniel Batten projected that by the end of 2026 Bitcoin mining can be carbon negative (if we all work together in one capacity or another). That would mean trillions of currently barred ESG money, expected to tripple Bitcoin’s market cap. Daniel nailed it 🎯.

The opening talk by @jack mallers is a must. Great to see him build on @Gigi s thoughts. Thank both of you. View quoted note →

Started preparing for the party 🤙🏻 (graphics by @Change this if you want 🙏🏻)

For a friend, I just dug up the forgotten Bitcoin Cash coin of a 1-BTC utxo of 2016. This was a nice #Bitcoin history excursion with a real-life benefit: 517,694 sats.
