Broken Money - Chapter 13, excellent! Thanks for sharing @Lyn Alden ! My take: United States, the Empire - is a corporation per 28 USC 3002. This is basically Congress’ company, but the CEO is the president. It does NOT include the states of the union, just the District of Columbia. Foreign affairs. United States, the Country - is the United States of America, which includes the states of the union. You can see CLEAR differences in politicians saying “United States” vs. “United States of America”. In fact, you’ll notice large corporations with the same deference. The “United States” corporation/empire, is exactly what people think of as the deep state. It’s a company masquerading as a country, and in doing so, has commercialized citizens into basically livestock. People think this is coming from a crazy loon, but that’s what the constitution, United States Code, and Supreme Court say. Anyway, the empire is the deep state is the latest manifestation of the wealthy/powerful commercializing citizens and lording over them, which the constitution was constructed to prevent. Gold and silver coin only as money vs. fiat today? Yep, citizens of the states of the union are protected, US Citizens (corporations per 15 USC 4724) have rights limited to the 14th amendment and not the rest of the constitution and bill of rights. Trump says United States of America, and talks about those workers in chapter 13. Maybe liberation day was more than just about trade? Whaat?! Really?! Yes. See here:

Everyone ready for: For the first time ever, really, we’re making history folks, this is a reaaaly big on. The first, Bitbond, it’s a bitbond where the United States Treasury will issue bonds backed by a little bit of bitcoin. It’s just a bit of bitcoin now, but it’s gonna be really big in (looks over) what do you think, 10 years? 10 years, we’ll see. People like bitcoin. And we’re for the people, so we’re for bitcoin.

How I turned $2000 of ETH into $7000 since 2022. Step 1: sell it Step 2: buy BTC Step 3: HODL

Doing things over a long period of time is hard, but not because any one thing is hard..consistency is. I’ve experienced this over the last few months. I committed to a 5 day fast, then 1 meal per day, in order to get healthier and, of course, lose weight. Each day is easy, but looking at 1/3 to 1/2 pound per day weight loss is difficult to appreciate on any single day. Eating one meal per day is easy. Resisting the temptation to gorge at night is easy considering 100 days of progress, but not easy looking at one day. Then, over time, you feel great, and seeing -25lbs on the scale is so rewarding it makes consistency easy again.

I like following @npub1r3kt...uytc but damn, it’ll take over your timeline real quick!

My nostr feed is so nice to read. I do want to discover more content, twitter is so good with accounts like Brian Rommele, Massimo, and I could go on. There are some great finds here, and it’s fun to be so early that you can peek around and discover new things everywhere you look…and bugs haha. I’m committed to consistently using it daily, including posting and engaging with others. And zapping is amazing, you feel it…and it feels so good. Let’s go!

Anyone use a 49” curved monitor? How do you like it?

Incredible talk on bitcoin and international trade by Nick Szabo.

Celebrating here! I’ve had a client for eight years, absolute amazing people and what I think is the best math education in the world for primary school. Just made a joint venture agreement to join the company and help it grow! Now, the education market is similar to a cartel with just a few companies dominating the resource resources schools use. My first action with this venture will be open, sourcing the curriculum! It’s a fairly substantial project with around 500 lessons, each needing review and aesthetic enhancements to ensure an awesome experience for anyone, not just teachers. Stay tuned…

Kids are amazing with articulating their thinking and giving some time really helps them make connections to what they already know.

Maybe a big reason people focus on attacks instead of issues is because most are bad at math. @npub143vt...kjwr is the best resource for parents and teachers with elementary students. View article →

Young generations - this is your depression. Boomers are wealthy, yeah - but the enemy is those who indebted them and inflated asset values…central banks. Bitcoin will end the depression, quality, time, and peace is coming.

Nothing is more “for the people” than Bitcoin. Central banks have a lot of influence, they print the money. All big institutions interests are closely aligned. Tariffs have complex arguments, and negotiation is obviously something that produces some raging. Time preference. Take a deep breath, let’s see how things go. Did you know money is limited to gold and silver coin, constitutionally? Legal tender, now that’s a different story..Federal Reserve Notes are “negotiable instruments”, like ethereum. Simple is best, but there are certainly use cases for complexity.

It’s not easy to understand why to love Bitcoin. It’s even less easy to understand why to love the USA Constitution. Rules over rulers. In that, they are the same. And, the USA Constitution was constructed perfectly to open the doors to a new money outside of the control of humans. Man lives under the laws of nature, of god alone. See what the Courts had to say about that in 1796: “It is not a rule upon mankind in their natural state. There, every man is independent of all laws, except those prescribed by nature. He is not bound by any institutions formed by his fellowmen without his consent. “Cruden v. Neale, 2 N.C. (1796) 2 S.E. 70

Tell me 1 thing from the USA Constitution, and I’ll zap you. I’ll start, the constitution limits the powers of congress in Article 1 Section 8. Their jurisdiction is limited to the seat of government, which is now the District of Columbia, but at the time was not certain, so they put: “To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of Particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States”

Some days following @npub1r3kt...uytc will completely take over your feed. Love the memes though.
