On June 22, 2024, Jack Dorsey gave an amazing presentation in a hot hotel room with bad audio and video. All I can find is the Bitcoin section but the entire presentation with NOSTR in it is a must watch/listen. I simply want it as I am trying to compile the best moments in Bitcoin/Free Will.

Mostly Bitcoin Only. My stuff is TLDR on purpose so you can pick/choose what you want.
Bitcoin Store of Value first but then MoE, least friction.
Open Source is King.
Filters are not Censorship.
Bitcoin is Time (Gigi). Timechain. Ocean. Bitcoin Knots.
I am a 35 year BI Developer using a competing product of Microstrategy but now am a MSTR /Saylor supporter.
Non-Partisan.

I am so thankful for the Open Source community, especially from Bitcoin to NOSTR. Thankful for Jack's tireless efforts to move to true decentralization (i.e. Ocean/Bitcoin Knots).
Salute to Bob Burnett too.
Salute to the BitAxe guys.
The details matter, especially in the tougher times, and the scammers and spammers will be exposed and lose. Bitcoin scammers/spammers are playing in a low time preference sandbox with high time preference actions and they can't hide their turds much longer. Including you, Bitcoin Magazine.
Delayed gratification for the Bitcoiners doing what is right in the long-low-time-preference-run.
Salute.
Thank you @Fountain, without you I'd stop listening to podcasts and podcasters.
- Value 4 Value
- It works great, no more texting myself a crappy YouTube link that skips and stops and has annoying ads you have to click through
- Easy to use
- Getting sats to simply listen is fantastic
Podcasters not on Fountain are missing out on listeners and a potential income stream.
Love the development on here, I liked a Reddit-like option called Oddbean.com but it hasn't been available for almost a week? Just curious if it will ever be live again.

Maybe Bitcoin is dyslexic and this is a Dog Candle?
Awhile ago, I posted on X how upset I was with Edward Jones not allowing me to buy into the ETFs or even MSTR. X is not allowing me to post to @edwardjones. So I am moving the conversation to NOSTR.
I called out their CEO, Penny Pennington.
Early this year, it was stressful trying to move my money out of Edward Jones to Fidelity.
I so, so, so want to send the analysts that fought me so hard up here in Minneapolis the one text I sent my wife last Friday.
I haven't told her anything, other than, "remember when we were on vacation in Tempe, Arizona, swearing about Edward Jones?"
Wife: "Yes."
Me: (sending her a snapshot) "Well, the money I moved is up 88% so far since I moved it to Fidelity."
Wife: "Amazing."
That isn't even a YTD number because it took so long to move.
I am grateful for Fidelity with their true 'thought leader' who doesn't have to call herself that like Penny does, Abigail Johnson, CEO at Fidelity.
Also, side note, my absolutely terrible HSA custodian, yeah, I moved that money too over to Fidelity ---- literally 3 clicks to create and you all have no excuse not to do this ---- and now that one is 'only' up 56% so far this year.
I get it, I understand self custody is the way to go, but so much of your funds for so many are locked in FIAT Jail and it makes sense on HSAs and IRAs and 401Ks to from from "40 NO K" to actually $401,000 K.
No capital gains taxes in HSAs or these accounts.
Bliss.
Thanks to some of you still FIAT Based CEO Wardens who have turned your FIAT Federal prisons into where at least some of us are still treated like criminals but can make money in the meantime. Totally legal and moral.
Thanks Satoshi.


Idea, I know not everyone in the world celebrates the US Independence Day, but how about we treat it like worldwide Bitcoin Independence from FIAT Day?
What say we all: "Smash Buy on the 4th of July"?
All in, thumbs up?


Is it a new trend where people are quoting other people on Bitcoin but not taking the time to put who said it?
It's dumb.
In the US. Forget Work From Home, our next President may have to work from Prison or Hospice.
Seriously, this is our choice and we are not going to stand up for it?
AI Bot for President.
Bitcoin has changed me. I am now physically and mentally more fit than I have ever been. In the past, what is going on in the world, or in the US, mostly politics, was so depressing. I felt helpless.
Bitcoin give me hope, I don't feel hopeless or helpless anymore.
Regardless of your wealth, your health matters much more and to live in this world with a Bitcoin saturated brain, in envelops me with an invisible force field to deal with anything and a purpose to keep going.
You can't put a price tag or an "all time high" on Satoshi's gift of Bitcoin to the world.


Too early to ask if anyone out there, or at Swan Bitcoin, has orange pilled Gavin Newsom?
Jill Biden is the problem. A good wife understands best her husband’s limitations and would shut him down out of love.
It’s about her. Selfish. Sad.
Democrats are in massive trouble. The lighting makes Biden look like a corpse and his voice is screaming he needs water because he’s 90% dust.
100,000,000 Bitcoin Bits sounds cooler and makes more than cents.
How'd you like to work as a journalist where your employer cranks out all sides of the same issue over the span of two days?
Really Barron's? Who are you fooling? Taking a page from Fred Kruger?

Bitcoin: "Coinbase Wallet - 1 good use case"
I am Bitcoin class of 2020 notching the Bitcoin Only status in 2021. But not before I fell for the scam coins and scammers. Including, Brian Armstrong. I watched and read everything on this guy, reading how he wanted to help out researchers via the 'blockchain', how Coinbase was brilliantly coded by etc. I even read "The Outliers" he recommended (not a good book in hindsight.)
Brian Armstrong (2020) was believable.
Until he wasn't, but not before I bought into the IPO of Coinbase at its still all time high, not before I listened to his CFO testify alongside SBF to Congress. How essentially Coinbase (read Armstrong) had nothing in place for finance anything before she got there. (It's all on C-SPAN if you want me to refind it.)
Never mind the senior counsel at Coinbase has a .eth in his X handle as he argues for shitcoins set to financially ruin their customers all for profit for them.
Coinbase is not pro Bitcoin.
It all bugs me, the people at Coinbase. Just like the people at "Bitcoin Magazine."
Bitcoin Magazine is not pro Bitcoin.
But regardless, I do keep a Coinbase Wallet with about $10 of Bitcoin in it, with my seed phrase carefully stored in my 1password account.
Just in case of a wrench attack, I can "act" like I am all upset as I turn over my 12 word seed phrase.
Of course, any Bitcoiner knows how idiotic doing this really is but not the ones who support Brian Armstrong and David Bailey.
I feel safe.
And I get to see the idotic things like this Coinbase is texting and emailing out to the customer base they don't give a crap about it.
This one irritates me because 'Ocean' is in here, never mind DOGE was up according to another notification they sent to their profit base:


In my 35 year BI career I can count on one hand the female engineers. Same with female Bitcoiners I interact with in my fake online world? Why is IT/Bitcoin such a damn sausage fest?
Old school cool. This site is over 25 years old. I still laugh. I am going to Hell.
I am better than your kids.
