Over the years I’ve gathered many notes from my brain farts. Not AI. Just brain. Now there’s so much text floating around, might as well start dumping a few of these words into the void. Nobody seems to be able to handle the overflow of info. “ Hundred million sats is a bitcoin. A bitcoin of which only 21 million exist. Many have gone missing. Though they are forever on the list. Millions of transistors in a parallel state of ones and zeros. The few people on this planet controlling the keys will be seen as hero’s. It’s the only group that battles for freedom in a swath of flushing paper. It will take many years as the enemy thinks it is the existing Ponzi they can taper. “

When I did my bachelor I pushed for a shorter runway because I had work experience being a surveyor and I could skip half a year. When I did my master degree I applied to do it at unesco IHE with more practical programs and 6 day a week classes. 1 year, half a year of graduating. Saving me 1,5 years of useless time at university. As a side job I drawed autocad for contractors and did building oversight and engineering for the first floating houses in the Netherlands. You simply have a very short period of time on this planet. Productivity on what matters most to you is important. Wasting time is the most painful experience for every well thinking human being. The burn rate of not being able to work and generate income at full capacity was more than the cost of the private uni. The ROI was simple. Most people think in the regular path, but we must think about the optimal path. Always. For humanity the optimal path currently is a better monetary system. There is no other way to get >90% of the global population to become useful for the future of humanity. If we don’t fix the basic signal of everything, we’re simply not able to scale outside of our planet properly. Peer to peer cash that is not devaluing should not be much to ask for. We will however still have to battle for it for quite some years to come. Though I don’t see any positive outcome if we don’t embrace it as humanity. The cost of working your ass of now, for this better system will put everyone in a better spot in the future. It’s about your value burned now vs the potential value coming back to you in the future. Money is just a database. Humanity should prefer a database without someone being able to type in “motherlode”.

On monetary Sunday’s you read about money, to understand better how we can win. The following line out of “economic policy” by Ludwig von Mises should engage every bitcoiner: “Some capitalists, who dare to look into the future, who realize the possible consequences of such an idea, will start to put it to work.” image

Would be great if this is not demolished. At technical university delft (I studied coastal engineering at unesco-IHE in Delft) we used to have a lot of Iranian students. Their mathematic performance was higher than any other genetic background I’ve ever encountered. They hated the regime in Iran. And definitely hated regimes in general. Many understood our world better than most from a restrictive financial perspective. They were send abroad to study at a young age, because there simply was no future in Iran. There was however funding coming from Iran. But how? Simple. A boxing match would be organized and they would bring in gold. A family would visit and they would bring gold. In the past years definancialization of Iran sped up. What helped, bitcoin. Not for the regime. For families wanting to prosper globally while being able to extract value out of Iran.

Freedom does not give a guaranteed outcome but a reduction of risk. When markets are truly free truth will flow and reward the productive that offer value for one another. Parallel bitcoin economies are the testing grounds for true freedom. Proof of work 📈 Parasites 📉

This was the first time I moderated a panel on a larger bitcoin conference. Used to do this in the port world, really enjoy interviewing and moderating to increase content density. More proof of work is necessary.

Today during an important meeting, I brought up this specific article. Two pages in all major newspapers. One of the biggest scammers is back. Where we thought this guy was out of the picture. He gets a major podium in mainstream media. It’s as if scammers receive a perpetual podium, creating a centralized narrative. The majority of the Dutch population consumes this garbage. Is there any hope for the future, where we see non negative bitcoin narrative propaganda? image
