Understand that influencers on legacy social media are structurally incapable of thinking outside their slop based monetization loop. Their incentives have atrophied their imagination and their will. They neither value nor can meaningfully comprehend personal sovereignty. Even the loudly anti-Zionist ones. They would rather plead for engagement scraps from technocratic gatekeepers than reclaim an inch of personal agency. Trying to onboard these people to Nostr is pure wasted effort. They are the absolute worst candidates for nostr pilling.

Wait you're telling me that... We can buy... GROCERIES WITH BITCOIN?????? Finally, we have an answer to normies that are all like "OK I get that Riba money is haram but I can't buy my groceries with Bitcoin" View quoted note →

"Capitalism was meant to be about shared risk and shared reward. Too often, it’s become about leverage, paper promises, and deferring consequences. This is why sound money matters." You've gotta read Bitcoin is Venice! It's good and it will blow your mind I promise. Basically explores your statement above.

No one is coming to save you

This is how we fight 👇 "Against the state, the calculus differs fundamentally from defense against ordinary criminals. One does not defeat a modern nation-state through force of arms. The asymmetry is too great, the resources too imbalanced. Those who imagine pitched battles against government forces are entertaining fantasies that will get people killed. Defense against state aggression means delay, deniability, and escape. It means separating evidence from persons at risk, maintaining the ability to relocate operations, and accepting that any fixed installation can eventually be taken. The goal is survival rather than victory, continuity rather than conquest. The Second Realm persists by being too diffuse to crush, too mobile to pin down, and too prepared to surprise."

The legacy social media landscape is so bad right now they're trying to revive Digg 😂

Muslim Nostr is very well positioned to address the Dawah Inc problem, but that vision still needs to be communicated View quoted note →

One of the reasons why I'm on Nostr is to cultivate and grow a Muslim Nostr space where 8-hour slop like this cannot happen. Lookin like a super smash loading screen how ridiculous it is.

This is really cool. Gotta get on this. Future Network States will have their basis and origin in being the first in utilizing sovereign permissionless infrastructure like this View quoted note →

Sounds like a sovereign individual framework to kickstart network state formation 👇 "The Two Realms framework exploits this caution. Rather than confronting the state or waiting for territorial escape, strong individuals build a second realm that operates alongside the first. The first realm consists of public spaces, state-controlled infrastructure, the official economy with its banking system and tax apparatus, the courts and police and prisons. The second realm consists of private spaces, encrypted communications, alternative monetary systems, and physical locations where those who claim self-sovereignty can meet, trade, and collaborate outside the state's direct oversight."

Samourai Letter #1: Notes From The Inside

Syndicated from The Rage: "Turning yourself in to be incarcerated tugs against every fundamentally primal instinct we have as human beings," writes...

Sobering read. Keonne met some Muslim brothers on his first night of being locked up. May Allah guide him and free him.

Started watching Orb. Really great anime so far. I'm definitely hooked. Synopsis: Orb: On the Movements of the Earth is a historical drama anime about a secret society in 15th-century Europe fighting to prove the heliocentric theory (that the Earth revolves around the Sun) against the powerful, oppressive Church that enforces the geocentric view, exploring themes of scientific discovery, faith, power, and the human pursuit of truth through a multi-generational saga of scholars risking their lives for forbidden knowledge.

X is trying hard to be like nostr 😂

The algorithmic feeds on legacy social media (LSM) are going to continue to deteriorate over time, basically turning into reddit front page slop. Being on LSM is proving to be such a waste of time man. You literally have to post like a slop influencer just for the elon algorithm to grant you the privilege of having any engagement. It sucks.

And inshaAllah we're definitely planning on having more stuff related to nostr. If we can get 200-300 people for this summit, that's a huge opportunity to nostr pill Muslims View quoted note →

Lots of exciting developments happening! View quoted note →

BIG NEWS We're excited to announce the Second Annual Muslim Bitcoin Summit, taking place April 17–19 in Dallas, Texas. Last year showed there’s a real hunger in our community for serious, grounded conversations about Bitcoin from a Muslim perspective. This year we’re taking it further. The summit will bring together Muslims from around the world who are thinking deeply about Bitcoin, sound money, and what financial sovereignty actually looks like in practice. Expect thoughtful talks, open discussion, and practical workshops focused on custody, sovereignty, and privacy. Early bird registration is now open at mslmbtcsummit.com If last year was any indication, spots won’t last long. Looking forward to seeing you there!
