This is hands down one of the best #bitcoin books out there, especially for those who want an accurate but digestible understanding of the more technical side of how this protocol & network functions, …which many who find #BTC through finance or econ could really use more of. 👊 @Daz B @Seb Bunney

An absolute privilege for us to talk to this dude last week for the 2nd time. First got exposed to Luke on TIP w/ @preston years ago, and we pay as close attention to what he says/thinks/writes as anyone in macro. View quoted note →

In a world where trust is deteriorating & sovereign debt loads are exorbitant, settlement is a WHOLE different animal. We explore this & much more in this week's chat w/ one of the brightest minds in the global research sector, Luke Gromen. 🎧

Luke Gromen (founder of FFTT LLC) joins Josh & Dan to discuss the current macro environment and where the current trajectory could take us.  Luke ...

The notion that energy/oil is going to get more expensive in years to come makes A LOT of sense to us — chronic underinvestment, mounting global frictions, less cooperative exporters, etc. Who disagrees? And if u do, why?👇

Constantly shuffling your investments like a deck of cards might seem tempting, but it's not a winning strategy. Buy assets you have LONG TERM conviction in...and then keep buying them.

Don’t get fed like a pathetic little caged piglet.🐖 Buy #Bitcoin and roam free like a majestic, wild, untamed hog.🐗 (Yes, anytime either of us is at petting zoos we take pig videos🤷‍♂️)

Monetary reliability is going to be in high demand this decade. 👉#Bitcoin

Sitting on the sidelines watching #Bitcoin is our worst nightmare. Glad we don’t have to live it.

Talking to Luke Gromen this morning. What should we cover?

Hear a lot about recession, recession, recession… …but seems many are sleeping on the potential for deficit-driven inflation.

Spend less money than you make.

We still get consistent feedback on our 2 part chat w/ @Gigi from July, 2022. Dude was in a delicious flow state. In part 2 he deep dove on what we still feel is one of the best #Bitcoin pieces ever written — Bitcoin Is Time Part 1:

Chatting w/ @Danny Knowles he raised an important question that's been discussed but is worth repeating: What risks does #BTC face in an ETF-driven era w/ massive institutional adoption? Gains are cool, but this thing is REALLY about reshaping base layer monetary incentives.

We encourage you to stack sats. We also encourage you to stay humble.

@jack - no pressure if it’s not a fit, but any chance u got an hour to romp with a couple firemen this winter about #nost, #bitcoin, decentralization, digital freedom, and global monetary inclusion? All the best, Dan & Josh

When I’m out in public watching humans in the wild, I find myself consistently looking at certain folks and asking this question.👇 How is it even possible to get that fat?🤔 Like when ur 44 years old, can literally barely move around, and struggle breathing…what the fuck happened? Isn’t there a point of fatness where people stop, realize it’s ruining their life, and make it a huge focus to be have some self respect and be less fat? Realize there are legit exceptions like mental illness, depression, hypothyroid, Cushing’s etc., but HEAVILY obese homo sapiens are ALL OVER in increasing numbers. It’s really hard to wrap one’s head around.

If you aren’t working out (or at least fairly active) most days of the week, we can virtually guarantee you’re not reaching your potential in life. Get off ur ass. Expend energy to get energy.
