Stablecoins And Lightning - Jesse Shrader (JWP 109) npub18yvpnchj7yaepjk8yz2pn66hfmmup505aqvx0lpyc3aree0g5fyq8clpz3 To kick off the New Year in style, I have an episode of the highest quality for you, with Jesse Shrader. If you ever wonder "what is actually being built on top of Bitcoin?" then look no further. I asked Jesse: "Why would it be useful to have Stablecoins on the Lightning Network?" "If Bitcoin is like Gold, do you think the lightning network is like using Bronze?" "How many Lightning nodes exist?" "How many Lightning channels exist?" "What kind of volume can the Lightning Network do?" "Are you doing a financing round?" "How does Amboss make money?" "Did you ever expect to be in the position you're in today?" If you want to give value-4-value: Via Fountain: boosts and all streams are split 50% with the guest Via Nostr: zaps always welcome Thank you Best, Jake

Anyone know of someone actually making a success of covered call options trading with Bitcoin?

Does AI mean we won’t have publicly traded companies? Could the capital structure be changed that much?

Good investing is about so much more than just numbers It took me a long time to figure out why Trial and error Trial and error The iteration speed is more important than perfectionist tendencies It’s literally a case of the more you do the more you learn Time to lean into what it means to be a “world class investor” 🙏🏻

GM When I wake up feeling a bit off key Anxious Overwhelmed Exhausted The best thing to get me feeling better: work Can be anything In today’s case, I fed all my kids breakfast, then gave them their supplements, and cleaned the kitchen I’ve just finished building a BBQ, have one more piece of IKEA furniture to make, and need to apply water filters to some taps If I get to organise the office, and h pack my clothes, then by the end of the day I’ll have achieved a bunch of things that needed to be done Not straight away But chores, stacked up, all of which combine to develop humanistic capital, in healthy kids and a healthy home Already stating to feel better 💪🏻

I had the pleasure of speaking with npub18yvpnchj7yaepjk8yz2pn66hfmmup505aqvx0lpyc3aree0g5fyq8clpz3 Episode out this coming Friday There were so many great segments to share, but this one caught my attention the most. As a Bitcoin Maximalist I am always looking for interesting ways for it to strengthen, as a core investment of mine. What do you think?

Victimhood is one of the most difficult behaviours to manage Firstly in yourself. “Oh poor me”. It’s unhelpful at best, dangerous at worst. A hand break on action. The most annoying trigger being the “compare and despair”… But secondly, in others. So frustrating. People literally play things their way, the victim, due to what happens around them. It always allows for blame to be on others. There’s no true accountability of emotion 😤
