I want to give a shoutout to Norwegian artist Moddi's album "Unsongs" (2016). It deserves WAY more attention! For those who follow HRF's work, this is spot on. He's re-recorded censored songs from around the world. It's not only thought-provoking and a beautiful (and brave!) idea - it is also expertly executed. The music is great, with Moddi's voice bringing a sense of urgency and intimacy to each track. The production allows the listener to focus on the stories and emotions behind each song. For anyone who cares about freedom of speech and human rights, "Unsongs" is a must-listen. It's a powerful reminder of the impact of censorship! @HRF @ck @gladstein Read about the stories behind the songs here:

Drove through the wealthiest part of Oslo today and hardly saw nothing but Porsches. Nice cars, but I generally feel sad for these people. How many of them actually find happiness in a fancy car, and how many just splash 100-200k usd on a car because everyone else does? I mean - if a nice car makes you happy, be my guest. But this is keeping up with the Joneses. For many in that area there is hardly a dent in their finances, but for others the opportunity cost in bitcoin and financial freedom is wild. What car I drove? A 9 year old Japanese brand worth 6k usd. And I would 100% not have been happier in a Porsche.. Anyway, that’s the note.

ETH, down 31% yoy. Well done ultrasound money.
