GN LinkedIn is going to be hacked soon And everyone will point to Ralphie Nostradamus and zapp this note. I did not kill myself.

Does a zappers leaderboard exist? Ranking npubs that zapped most overall/most per note/ etc?

Bitcoin and Taxes, why tf would you care. Right? It is the elefant in the room. Not a sexy nor popular subject among hodlers. But nevertheless we cannot avoid talking about it. Imo you must have a strategy to approach this. Look, I personally think tax is pure theft and I obviously don’t own any bitcoin, but that said… One of the most likely state attacks on your KYC stack are personal arbitrary Tax audits. We can kick and scream all we want, but tax compliance and enforcement actions will only increase in the future. Because these statist do not want you to escape out of their tax base. One can argue only Non KYC stacks are real bitcoin. But this note is not about that. Or you can just say go fuck yourself Ralphie. I don’t care, just raising some awareness for those who have a kyc stack, which is the majority of holders. That said: I would advise you to at least ask some specialized tax firm around if they want to represent you in case you get audited in the future, so you already have a sort of relationship before that situation actually unfolds. This can prevent you from a lot of unnecessary fear and doubt in the future.

GM rascals

“On A Positive Note” sounds like a great title for a nostr only pod

Fairness does not exist

GM When I walk through buildings like this basilica yesterday, I merely feel the weight of its grandeur and the power it projects instead of enjoying its perceived beauty. But i do respect the proof of work of the people building it.

What book did you read last? And what do you remember about it most

It never crossed my mind I’d ever consider having an army of agents, sorry Neo. 🐇

Here’s an interesting take on how people rationalize their own inaction.. There’s a friend I have been trying to orange pill for years. Yesterday she approached me over phone: ‘Yeah, I thought I’d reach out to you… I know you care very much about the topic of bitcoin and money and freedom and stuff. But, I figured you might be asking why I avoid the subject a bit, and you deserve to know the reason why… She continued: This is not about bitcoin or any of that stuff. I’m sure it is promising and to YOU and other people around you but not to me… There is so much I don’t know. Hell, I also sense there is someting wrong with this world ad well. But I can’t control any of that shit. So, I rather live in the moment, and focus on what I can control instead of worrying about what I don’t understand about bitcoin or nostr, or any other technological innovation I don’t understand. We have it so good here, so I don’t worry about that stuff at all, it makes no sense to me to care about it because it doesn’t change anything in my life. We had an agreement to be very honest to each other, so that is why I wanted to say this to you. To put it blunt, I find it a bit annoying when people talk about stuff they obsess about… I hope you don’t mind and we can talk about so much topics which we both care about…’ I thanked her and said that it is perfectly fine. But, to be honest, what she said stuck with me all day. She is so clever and we laugh so much together and respect her so much.

GM time for proof of work
