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. npub1mp77smkmq77zwp3d8ke2let567cype0m3lhwx7v97gu2fans40qsn7vzdd
Saylor's 100K party is so last year, who is planning Bitcoin's Sweet 16 party this month? @yellow ?
"Hey, where has Kay been, I haven''t seen her voting on critical US policy." image Me: Come on, there has to be an amendment for Term Limits or a Max age of whatever the average lifespan is for an American. It doesn't matter Kay is a Republican either. Maybe I am sore because my Biden/Carter 2028 isn't going to happen? Enough. We are better than this. Go Bitcoin.
My two year NOSTRaversary today. I hope to be on here a lot more in 2025. I am not a good fit for X's algorithm. I spend tons of time just blocking bots, and being the opposite of engagement farming. I spend a lot of time thoughtfully posting feedback and a lot of TLDR for what? image I barely even have more followers after my one year trial of Blue Check.🤣 Or my posts just flat out suck which is fine but I'd rather put my TLDR content here than X. (When I write, it is always wordy but I post it for me first. The only problem I have is the search here but https://nostr.band/ is so much better:
The correct language is: "Bitcoiners WHO..." not "Bitcoiners THAT..." ...NOSTR can be better than X.
One thing holding me back on NOSTR is the search. I spent my entire career in data/reporting so I view all posts as database entries to go back and 'mine' words, Dorsey's, yours, and mine. For instance, I painstakingly wrote up notes on Saylor explaining the 5 types of investors in Bitcoin. Going to the transcript, reformatting it, etc. I remember it had Denier and Skeptic in it but I can't find it using any client search inside NOSTR or using "The Google." For 2025, I would like to not renew my blue check on Twitter but it is impossible for me to be limited on my posts (TLDR) and some of us need the search. I know, I know, everyone likes to think what they post today is earth shattering but I really, really like to go back to what has been said the past almost 16 years in Bitcoin and last almost 4(?) on NOSTR. Huge Fan of NOSTR and I am patient as Hell. Some of us were around when the Internet was being built: "404 Page Not Found - Site Under Construction"
I may not be on here often, but I am so damn proud of you guys. I saw something like 7% of my followers are in my age band, I am 3 months and 5 days younger than Saylor. But....I was like you guys, back in the day, with the Internet. But even before then, I was in on BBS systems. I actually met two girlfriends online. My friends thought I was nuts, how could you meet someone typing on a computer? Then came the pre-Internet days. I pushed hard. People laughed. I explained to them everything, even a guy at an Auto store (Poquet Auto) I came in on a Saturday to check out a Diamante (I bought it) he said. "How did you hear of this specific car?" I explained. "But it isn't in the Sunday Tribune until tomorrow?" I helped them get a website setup using an ISP (long gone) called Summit. My friends and family laughed. I taught them early on the word 'Blog', they laughed, repeating the foreign word, when we went to Ukraine to adopt our daughter and I am in Internet cafes with thumb drives posting my info. (Essentially working with the Russian Mafia, really, packing heat, counting crisp hundred dollar bills and if one was flawed, "spend this in your country" in a thick Russian Accent. My friends/Family were starting to say "cool." Then my wife was diagnosed with incurable cancer, I used a MLM the exact on Satoshi used called Majordomo. Before Google, shitty search engines but I compiled all the info they needed and emailed it. BUT I knew that they would need to 'search' back through those emails so I used something called FINDMAIL.COM where it archived each email from the MLM. Then it was sold to eGroups then it was sold to something called Yahoo. But it did the same. Now I am a national level cancer patient advocate for the past 27 years, with some of the best researchers in the world. I take most comfort, however, knowing that my little mailing list for that specific type of cancer, the doctors would say how "informed their patients were" and I knew, I freakin' KNEW my little list with the most patients/family members on it was in play. ...so then comes Bitcoin, my friends and family laughed, they are not saying "cool" yet. All I am saying to you younger people, I am proud. Very proud of you all. RESPECT. GO NOSTR. GO UKRAINE, I love your country, the people, and our wonderful daughter from Odesa.
Thanks to Bitcoin, I was able to skirt around my governments antiquated rules on only being able to invest $9300/yr (I am and married.) How, I took my crappy HSA and moved it to Fidelity and was able to invest almost 8 years via some Bitcoin products. Thanks Satoshi/Saylor/Fidelity. Stop glorifying spending/debt USA Government and vilifying SAVINGS. Any type of SAVINGS. Health SAVINGS. You want me bankrupt when I am one blood test away from financial ruin because our healthcare sucks? How sick does the world have to be to see what Bitcoin can solve and apparently I live in the healthiest of nations? What a joke.
The Incredible Explanation of Exponential Growth "The Stadium Analogy" From NOSTR via Robin Seyr @Robin Seyr on this podcast the other day my mind was blown. But you validated my obsession by saying you were too the next two times on different podcasts. I do feel you have to let people hear the original talking on this as it was my favorite part of it all as my brain processed it with you. Here is the start of it: I know NOSTR is new and the advanced search needs a lot of work, but would love to see who originally posted this on here to send sats to both Robin and the originator.
I wonder how many people, in the USA/World know that Donald Trump has a pro-Bitcoin stance and Mark Zuckerberg has a goat named "Bitcoin"? Very few, why? Because when 99% of the people still believe the Banks-Are-Good-Bitcoin-is-Bad fueled by FIAT and the FIAT minded, then of course not. People can't research to the level of that top line, which took me seconds to write and hours to comprehend. image
Season's Greetings from America. America, where we are $36T in debt, Americans are HODLing more debt than ever on Christmas. But there is a FIAT holiday today known as "Black Friday" where you can get the best deals on the imported crap you don't need. Our government wants us to follow their lead and go into debt. Opt out of "Black Friday" ($PENDING) and opt in to "Orange Friday" ($AVING) Save Bitcoin. Show us, rest of the world? Today's Headline on Yahoo, right now, in America (image): image Me: "Merry F*K'n XMAS, get out de way, b*tch, get out de way."
Bitcoin has changed me financially and physically (dropped 30#/13.6Kg by simply walking and listening/learning about Bitcoin by so many amazing contributors, starting with Satoshi.)
I started out on here with putting $200 into Alby and zapping and it's now over $300. That's the way money should work.
Can someone help me, I can't use NOSTR for one reason, I started posting on here to use this as a 'bathtub' to fill up with TLDR posts so I could go back and find them. I can't, like most apps (not bitching) I can't do advanced search (X is just one notch above awful.) I simply am trying to respond to Stephan that Starknet/Starkware is an awful company for Bitcoin. Funding Udi and others who think is fun trying to break Bitcoin. I had links to Podcasts and transcripts, anyone? Or can you send me links to support this? Thank you.
Hopefully Trump will put "Not Sure" into one of his main cabinets? image
I love when Bitcoiners incorporate odd music like this heavy(?) Mongolian band The HU. @yellow ever hear of them? This would be a great Bitcoin theme song or NOSTR Primal, Primal Scream:
Not sure if the rumor I heard was true but since there are no filters anymore on misinformation I am going to put this out there as fact. It makes sense that Peter Schiff founded Midvale School.image
Sad to see this gem on Anna Maria Island is gone. Great vacation memories. image
