After digesting Modern Chains I dove into Common Sense by Thomas Paine. 🔥 Every page is a gut-punch reminder of what it means to be American — demanding liberty and mustering the courage to defy tyranny. It’s wild how the same truths that lit the fuse in 1776 still burn today. The words feel alive, urgent, and personal. We are the heirs to that spirit — but only if we choose to be. 🇺🇸 @Neal #liberty #America #USA #freedom #bitcoin

First time checking out the #Nostur client. This may be my favorite so far…

I’m kind of hyped for a near future that has BattleBot-style showdowns with humanoid robot gladiators. image

There a two things a person can say that instantly signal to me that they are not financially intelligent. 1.) Having any other view on Bitcoin outside of IT’S COMING FOR EVERYTHING. 2.) Thinking that’ bUiLdInG MoRE iNvEnToRy’ is the solution to the housing affordability crisis in the U.S. Another possibility is they are arguing in bad faith. #bitcoin #realestate

A positive aspect of #nostr compared to other socials: Users here seem to be proud of how much they have #zapped other users instead of the zaps they have received. Compare this with influencers who talk about their creator income, sponsorship revenue, follower count, etc. Generous in knowledge and in #zaps Built different.

I thought my downstairs neighbor slammed their door or something. The shake wasn’t long at all in Manhattan. View quoted note →

If you listen to one #bitcoin podcast episode this year, let this @Robert Breedlove What Is Money be it! @Neal get into the weeds of the MORAL objections to fiat and equips the bitcoiner with tools to articulate that message in his book Modern Chains.

Is #nostr a nod to the Latin 'nostra' (‘ours’)? If yes, brilliant work, @fiatjaf If no, then what a divine coincidence. 🏛️📚💭
