throwback to a barefoot panel I did last month at nostr:nprofile1qqs9fmyl5qqak2wee7qfu2f8wyrzmx9zgakfkccx9pgtht52gdgm4hcpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpzfmhxue69uhk7enxvd5xz6tw9ec82cs0seyg6 (it was about the connection between sound money & sound health, we all just happened to be barefoot) more barefoot panels at conferences!

In two days an incredible auction ends I have seen this book and its hard to overstate how special it is. Let me highlight one cool aspect--the book itself is covered in orange bull leather. BULL, not cow. The entire project is full of these incredible details The limited edition books will be extremely special and will retail for $4,600, but the real gem is the 1 of 1 first edition. That orange bull leather will be inside a case made out fossil oak wood that was already 3,000 years old when Jesus was born. Auctions are tough to predict, esp if art, but to say this is priceless would be an understandment. I'd expect it go for well over a bitcoin, but who knows, maybe someone gets a deal or maybe theres a bidding war (and independent bitcoin education gets a windfall). In any event, check out the page linked in the first comment to learn more

The obstacle is the way

The largest city in the United States elected a democratic socialist last night I know a lot of people think he will be a disaster, a kind of one-off. I disagree, I think this is the start of a wave of victories for democratic socialist politicians/ policies. Which, in turn, will create a counter wave of pseudo fascist 'mano duro' type politicians/ policies. (Alternatively you can argue that last night was the counter-wave. Either way, these two trends actually support each other and give the other its reason for existing.) The nation, conscious that the status quo is NOT working for them will seek solutions at the margins and each of us in our own echo chambers will be convinced whatever side we are on is just. This is takes us down a dangerous road Or... There's a third choice for those who want to reject the status quo #Bitcoin

"Each stablecoin transaction that settles in USDT extends the dollar system’s reach and perpetuates the weaponization of money... And every Bitcoiner who accepts that trade off helps build a network where decentralization endures mostly as branding." https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/tether-is-buying-bitcoins-revolution-how-devastating-will-the-consequences-be

Another Sunday hike up San Salvador volcano with my son I mostly carry him in a backpack but each week he walks more on the trails What a joy to watch his love of nature grow ❤️ https://blossom.primal.net/bbf2469a54bac5876b9c823d7f5b5efeccefae39582fb36491bb0b6a510b0cd3.mp4

the problem with self-censorship is that over time it becomes easier I've seen more self-censorship this year than any other time in my life and while some places are better or worse I think its a global trend. Heck, i've self-censored more this year than ever before so I'm definitely sympathetic--speaking truth to power has increasingly scary consequences But this worries me as i think the more we self censor the more we rewire our brain, and the more we all do it the less free & expressive society becomes

Bitcoin is money. I strongly believe that's it's most valuable use case In order to make sure that is the future of Bitcoin there is something extremely important you must do today.... Use Bitcoin as money. Earn it for your work & spend it for your wants and needs. And if you want to do even more, make it easier for others to do the same via education or technology

Good morning! May your day be filled with volcanos and rainbows (And #bitcoin ofc)

I used the microphone on the baby monitor to talk to my 2 year old yesterday And he was so amazed All day he kept reminding me, in awe, how he heard me like I was with him even though I wasn't It reminds me of that saying about advanced tech being indistinguishable from magic Seeing the world through a child's eyes can feel like magic as well ❤️

Every bomb ever made falls on all of us All violence against free expression of ideas and opinions targets all of us
