I got to speak at my first HR conference last week. I’m trying to work out how to bring money itself into serious compensation design conversations. The basic argument is that most of what we do beyond salary/wages simply enables different ways of adjusting for money that decays. If you employ people in North America or want your workplace to start thinking about bitcoin I would love to talk to you. image
I wrote my first book- Bitcoin for Financial Advisors back in 2022. It's one I've wanted to revisit, & the 2nd Edition is out today. It's relevant now for advisors across the USA, UK, Canada, & Australia. If your financial professional doesn't get it, this is meant for them. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HJHW7J1N image

The Age of Time is a book about civilization.
 How humans coordinate, create meaning, and carry it forward across generations. It explores consciousness and identity as consensus processes.
 How the mind assembles continuity, and how societies do the same at scale. It traces the rise of mechanical time as a solution to coordination.
 A system that allowed humanity to agree on sequence when we could no longer share place. It looks to architecture as memory. What past civilizations built, and what their creations reveal about how they thought in time. And it asks a deeper question:
What happens when our model of time changes? For centuries, time has shaped our perception of reality.
 We inherit it without question.
 But the system we use compresses experience into an ever-narrowing present. The signs are everywhere: we build for disposal, optimize for return, and treat time as an input cost.   Bitcoin introduces something different.
 A process that transforms perception through participation.
 A clock that does not accelerate.
 A system where order and value converge. It points toward a new civilizational relationship with time. www.theageoftime.com image

I'm one month away from releasing my next book. Civilization can be viewed as an immense coordination problem across time. The mechanical clock was an innovation that enabled a standardization of agreement on sequence but the cost of that innovation was our base understanding of reality. Time is not what we’ve been told it is. Bitcoin fixes something much bigger than money. It is the foundation for a civilization that forms consensus differently. We are entering the age of time. image

One of my favourite rabbit holes as a historian is the anomaly of lost architectural knowledge how. If the money is fake and almost nobody realizes it, what should that tell us about history?
