Preface: I’m newish to bitcoin, so maybe this is obvious to everyone. How did Core 30 improve the chance that my kid’s kids will benefit from my stacking? - The price of #bircoin is down since the release - All the people who look at on chain data say the OGs are selling - OGs almost certainly have more domain knowledge than the buyers. Let’s say the buys are the ETF. The bros working for Blackrock and Fidelity didn’t know what the OP_return was when they got their job advising the guys who hired them. - I hope @MartyBent and @npub1qh5s...eh9r are spot on that their analysis. I’ve learned so much from them. If so, this price action seems to be is a good thing. Or… - Maybe the people selling think the project isn’t what it was 2 months ago and maybe the people buying don’t know what a node is and what CSAM is. I’m new-ish to bitcoin so maybe this is too simplistic, but maybe smart hands are selling to less informed hands and no one wants to admit it. Back to work.

A big day is coming to an end. It was great to get in a spin on the bike for day 3 of #30days of exercise. Zone 2 for 25-45 min for a middle age man is such a gift. Thanks @Sam Magner and @Contra for “pricking my brain.” - thus the bigger ⚡️’s. Here’s the #zaplog. #GN 😀👊💤

I need to be honest about workouts: either my face was sweating or it wasn’t. “Never underestimate the human capacity for self deception” said a wise man. So true. Zone 2 spin on the inside bike. 3/#30days

On the stationary bike, talking to Claude AI. Dog at my feet. Life is good… If you own Bitcoin. The flip side is I’m worried for my generation - Gen X - who hasn’t paid attention to real inflation. Not 3% that’s on the news but the 6-7-8% (or more?) that makes it too expensive to eat out with your family. So I’m talking to Claude about how much BTC you need, assuming the power curve/power law holds, to retire at 65. I’m happy working longer, and, I know biology is undefeated, so 65 yr old me likey can’t work as much. It’s not a huge amount of bitcoin to change a friend’s retirement, but the longer they wait the more they have to get. Claude thinks 200k is a magic level where interest in bitcoin will swell. Obviously I’m preaching to the choir here, but running the numbers it’s (obviously) going to be harder to get .3 in 3 years than it is to get .3 today, let alone in 2030. Finally, Google Search Trends over the past five years for bitcoin, gold, and silver: Minus a bump after Trump’s election bitcoin searches are down. Gold and silver up over the same time, and with an inflection point the last few months for those two, and a stepper dive down for Bitcoin searches. Back to sunrise photos 😀 #bitcoin #powerlaw #powercurve

GM 😀👊☕️ I aiming to be as joyful throughout the day as the dog was this morning playing fetch. #coffeechain

Great day - package from @woodMiner, dog park, a short bike ride, work. I have my wallets messed up and incoming zaps are going to @YakiHonne but here is the #zaplog. GN 😀👊💤

I don’t know if this is a thing but I saw @SuiGenerisJohn @Sats McJay @Leviticus Mathew do #31days and I wanted in on the fun - is #30days a thing? 35 min spin on indoor bike, taking to Claude. 2/#30days

I just finished working and have some more work tonight. But my work helps people - and they say thanks for the help, which I know most people don’t often hear in their jobs. I’m really blessed; I need to be more grateful for the work.

I don’t think I’ve ever been as excited about a purchase with sats as I am with the boards and other items from @woodMiner I’ll let the pictures do the talking. I bought the big board, the #bitaxe stand and the keys tray. He threw in the small board which I’ll use for garlic and onions. The boards are cherry and over time, with oil/beeswax applied monthly, the colors should deepen. This wood was dried with excess heat from miners! Check him out to see then workspace with the wood in there. I always wanted a nice cutting board and to get one with sats is awesome. Thank you @woodMiner 🙏🏻😀👊 #worththesats #circulareconomy #bitcoin #mining #bitaxe #heatpunk #zapsnag

Saturday night. #dogstr #bitcoin

35 min easy spin on the bike. Talked to Claude about a little project I’m working on. You have to re-feed it data that’s already in the project knowledge, which I find both annoying and surprising - this seems like table stakes for an LLM. 1/#30days
