The IRS is going to take a cut of spain’s world cup price money, which is $51 million. Their cut is 30% which is around $15 million. But yeah, i guess the estimated $20 billion injected to the US economy which is about $100-200 million per host city in tax revenue wasnt enough…

@₿en Wehrman this reminded me of you 😂

TikTok - Make Your Day

They just closed my @Wise bank account because I'm into Bitcoin. And now, I am banned from ever opening an account with them. Great. This is why the banking system is rigged. I knew it was a huge red flag opening the account in the first place, they have over 10 countries they didn't let you interract with. SMH, this is why Bitcoin is important.

Any advice for how to have a full night sleep with influenza? Im dying. Havent slept in days.

I genuinely want to know, who is in charge of choosing the winner of the world cup? Like how much are they paying for it? Not mad, just curious as to who funds it and why are they fumbling the ball in being so obvious? Or is it because now we have access to an insane amount of technology like videos in real time vs the fake AI stuff they feed us? Omg, is the internet the thing that blows up the cover to all the lies and manipulation? Does this mean we are closer to uncovering who is genuinely in charge? Wait, are they scrambling because they dont have access to control the narrative they want anymore??? Or am i reading in too deep lol

hi, after two years of posting weekly i have decided to take a break. i want to focus on decentralizing btc isla (the actual circular economy) and im going to rebrand this channel to Be Ultimate. i want to share my journey on being the best version of myself in hope to inspire you to do the same. and since all roads lead to bitcoin, freedom money will always be part of the story. ever since the bitcoin circular economy started, we have had the privilege to welcome thousands of bitcoiners to the island. and most that have been part of our story, have left with a fire inside them to change their lives. that is what i want to achieve with my next chapter. i will still be using this channel, i want you to continue to be part of my journey. so, i ask for you to wait for me when i come back. i want to thank you from the bottom of my heart all the way to the top for joining every friday since 2024. you have become my muse, my fuel and part of my life. i hope you have enjoyed my videos as my as i liked making them. but imma be real, putting out a weekly show at that production is exhausting. since i never took a week off, i realized it affected my drive. part of life is knowing when to take a break. so, this is NOT a goodbye. its a wait for me because ill be back soon. :) - isa

We have had so many power outages in the last week on the island. Especially compared to last year, and the year before And that gets me thinking the only major change we’ve really had in the last couple years is the increase in data centers, so are the data centers sucking that much energy? Which now brings me to my next question everyone was giving Bitcoin mining facilities shit for consuming so much energy. If I not mistaken, it was like the biggest reason why Bitcoin should not exist was because it was harming the planet. I have yet to see these environmentalist talk about data centers. Don’t get me wrong I love AI, but I’m just brain dumping here.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but namecheap.com is cheaper than godaddy.com for domain shopping. You are welcome.

We officially hit 45 merchants in BTC ISLA! Isla Mujeres is becoming one of the most Bitcoin-friendly places on the planet. To celebrate, we're hosting a Bitcoin Meetup on June 29th from 5–7pm at the Bitcoin Café in Isla Mujeres. If you're in town, you're invited. Come meet the merchants, connect with the community, and see what a circular #Bitcoin economy looks like IRL. (It helps if you come and spend bitcoin at these new locations, it motivates the merchants!) This is just the beginning. 🌴₿

americas food is so bad that norway literally shipped 2,000 lbs of their own food to the world cup to avoid eating it 300kg of salmon. 116kg of cheese. 6,000 oranges. 3 chefs flown in from home. But they're not crazy… because here's what's actually in american food: 🇺🇸 the US approves 10,000+ food additives 🇪🇺 the EU bans 1,300+ of them red dye #3 — linked to cancer. banned in europe. in your maraschino cherries. potassium bromate — linked to kidney damage. banned in europe. in your bread. azodicarbonamide — used to make yoga mats. banned in europe. in subway bread. brominated vegetable oil — linked to neurological damage. banned in europe. in your sports drinks. and dont get me started on the fake chicken, fish farms, eggs, fruit, veggies they have 60% of the average american diet is ultra-processed food glyphosate (a weed killer) has been found in 80% of americans' urine the US spends more on healthcare than any country in the world AND, heres the kicker, is still one of the sickest So imagine, norway packed a plane full of real food for 2 weeks meanwhile americans have been eating chemicals their entire life and wondering why everyone is exhausted, inflamed, and medicated by 40 …now depending on peptides to control the food addiction

This is so sad. People don't understand the basic principles of how money actually works. The US dollar has lost over 97% of its purchasing power since 1913, and that's thanks to the Federal Reserve. So those $1,000 weekly payments? They say 3% inflation like that's a safe assumption. It's not. The official CPI average since 1960 is 3.8%. But real-world costs… housing, healthcare, groceries… they have inflated closer to 5-7% annually for decades. And in just the last 4 years alone, cumulative inflation hit 23%. So 3% is the best case scenario. And even at 3% she needs to live 29 more years just to collect $1M in real purchasing power. If she's 40 today, she has to make it to age 69. If she's 45, she's praying she sees 74. At 23% inflation, which is what we actually experienced the last few years, she never gets there. EVER The math is brutal: - Her $1,000/week is worth $813 in real terms after just year 1 - By year 5 it's worth $355 - By year 10 it's worth $126 - By year 20 it's worth $16 Even if she collects for the full 20 years, she'll have received $1,040,000 on paper. But in real purchasing power? $222,488. That's it. Less than a quarter million in actual value. In exchange for 20 years of waiting. Damn thats sad. At 23% inflation, the maximum her payments are ever worth in real terms… even if she lives forever is $226,087. The math literally caps out there. She can never reach $1M in real value. Not in any number of years. The truth is the lottery didn't give her $1M. They gave her $226K disguised as a million, paid out slowly enough that most people never notice. The lump sum was always the right answer. Not to spend BUT to put to work. $1M in Bitcoin in 2020 would be worth over $5M today. In 2017, over $30M. Nothing has outperformed Bitcoin over any 4-year window in its entire history. But the crazy part is the lottery isn't even paying her with money they have. They're paying her with the tickets you and I bought last week. It reminds me of social security lol. Collect from people today. Promise to pay others tomorrow. Hope nobody does the math. They collect billions, pay out slowly over decades while inflation does the work for them, and pocket the difference. The money is never sitting in a vault with her name on it. Brenda, I hope someone tells you before year 5. Because the system just played you… AGAIN.

Nostr, I have been scared to ask this because I (almost) always get the truth. But I have to ask, what are your thoughts on peptides? Are they worth it?

HOLY SH*T. there was an earthquake on the island. how is that even possible?

Today my country Peru is making one of the most important decisions in its history. I've watched Peru become a political punchline for the last decade. We’ve had 9 presidents in 10 years. NINE. But that's not even the most insane part. Every elected Peruvian president since 1985 is either in jail, has been in jail, or has faced arrest. Lets go down memory lane: Alberto Fujimori — 25 years in prison for human rights violations and corruption. Alejandro Toledo — sentenced to 20 years for money laundering. Spent years hiding in the US before being extradited back to Peru. Alan García — two-time president. Shot himself in the head the moment police came to arrest him for corruption. Died. Ollanta Humala — sentenced to 15 years for money laundering linked to Venezuela and Brazil's Odebrecht scandal. Pedro Pablo Kuczynski — resigned, arrested, sentenced. House arrest at 80 years old. Martín Vizcarra — impeached, banned from public office. Pedro Castillo — tried to dissolve Congress in a live TV address, was arrested the same day, sentenced to prison. Peru even built a special jail exclusively for ex-presidents … This is a country where power itself has become a crime scene. And today, AGAIN Peruvians are being asked to choose between two options: Keiko Fujimori. Hard right. Daughter of a convicted authoritarian who ruled by fear, forced sterilizations, and death squads. She's been on trial for corruption herself three times. This is her fourth attempt at the presidency. Roberto Sánchez. Hard left. Calling for a new constitution, restructuring the economy, and redistribution. The kind of language that sounds like justice to a desperate population. Here's what nobody wants to say out loud: When a country is THIS unstable, THIS exhausted, THIS broken that's exactly when the left wins. Not because people want socialism nor because they studied Venezuela or Cuba or Nicaragua. Because people are so shattered by decades of corruption, betrayal, and chaos that they will vote for ANYTHING that promises something different. That's a historical pattern that has repeated itself across Latin America for 60 years. The conditions don't start with a dictator. They start with a population that stopped believing anything could get better. They start with a people so beaten down they stop asking what is being promised and just need someone to promise something. I love Peru. I'm Peruvian. My family is Peruvian. I was born there. And that is exactly why this terrifies me. A beautiful country, with insane resources… The people of Peru don't need a new constitution. They need leaders who don't belong in a prison cell built specifically for leaders like them. History doesn't warn you twice. Pray for peru. 🇵🇪

Hi, we are on a streak here in BTC isla. One merchant per day since June 1st.

I am low-key tripping out. Because I just realized how censored we are being. Yesterday I was having a video call and I forgot to turn off the Gemini notes. And I realized everything was tracked when both parties recieved an inbox of the call summary itself. Then it clicked, everything that I talk to my bot about is also tracked. So now I'm going down this spiral on how I'm censoring myself based on everything that is tracking me. So unconsciously, I'm self-limiting myself because of the amount of tracking that is all around me. It's tripping me out how every conversation is tracked. I'm censoring myself. Without even realizing it. There are things I don't type. Thoughts I don't finish. Questions I don't ask out loud, because somewhere in the back of my mind I know something is recording it. That's a conditioned response to living in a world where nothing digital is private. The only thing that is truly untracked right now is pen and paper. We talk about freedom all the time in this space. Financial freedom, freedom from the system, sovereignty. But if you're unconsciously editing your own thoughts because you're afraid of who's watching, are you actually free? We went from worrying about wiretapping to carrying the wiretap in our pocket voluntarily and paying $999 for it. And then this morning, when I try to use my AI it logged me out, and I almost had a heart attack because I don't know how I would survive without AI. So now I'm not only dependent on a tool that tracks me, I'm afraid of losing it. Make that make sense. This is just a random food for thought.

who is the bitcoin hero this cycle? who we watching to get inspired?

I just doomed scrolled for 2 hours. Send help.

AN AI AGENT BOUGHT THIS GIFT CARD AND IT WORKED! with bitcoin

A year ago, Jack Dorsey was in this ai agent camp by @HRF showing how you can vibe code a website. After that, he spent 3 hours every single day for a year vibe coding. Getting better, pushing ai’s limits. Which led him to vibe code Bitchat, one of the most impactful messaging apps out there. A chat used to communicate without the internet. (Game changer) Anyway, that was a year ago. I just learned to vibe code a website and bitcoin wallet, in just two days. I am where one of the best was 365 days ago. Ai is changing the world, peoples opportunities, do not sleep on this technology. This is just the beginning of my ai journey. SO FREAKING HYPED. The possibilities are endless.
