Really beginning to hope that the Sovereign Individual phase of jurisdictions competing for capital allocators, innovators and productive labor, by offering property rights, low taxation, negligible surveillance and free markets begins to ramp quickly…..unfortunately, all I see is dystopian surveillance states gaining power and taxing their productive cattle to keep the system afloat. Any expats want to share their 2nd home destinations and whether they’ve lived up to promises?

At a lacrosse game today. Miss anything pertinent?

College lacrosse season is upon us. Tomorrow’s tailgate prep began at 4:30 this morning. Fastest game on two feet deserves #proofofwork food prep.

Coretard vs Knotzi question: If it is determined that Jane Street has been manipulating the price of bitcoin, and creating billions in losses in liquidating cascades and lost hodler value, but that manipulation has been done by taking advantage of loopholes which are not well defined or illegal within existing law: Should the market regulators: A: define those loopholes and close them immediately B: open an enormous, almost unlimited “loophole exploiters only” area where they and other market makers can continue to create paper bitcoin and other spoofing strategies to distort the market and kill the inelasticity of Bitcoins fixed cap 21M supply

I’ve been called retarded quite a bit in the last 24 hours. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about ₿, bip-110 and how it correlates to my other lifelong passion, aortic surgery. There are several parallels to protocol rule consensus and aseptic technique/sterile field, bacteria to spam, and rule changes to combat new pathogens. Perhaps I’ll write those parallels down, or perhaps I’ll keep my retarded ideas to myself. Either way, my nodes will signal their vote on the future direction of the protocol once I’ve completed my technical review of both arguments. Name calling doesn’t bother me, but is certainly not constructive. Knotzies vs Coretard is elementary school playground stuff…not the hallmark of constructive discourse. @hodlonaut

#BIP-110 as I see it. Which way Bitcoiners? Core has made an aggressive move to increase the value of blockspace at the expense of the native token ₿, which derives its value from being perfect money. Blockspace, like cloud storage, is proving to be less and less valuable. Wall Street is clamoring to launch securities on ETH and SOL, but those launches—if successful—will do little to boost the value of the chain’s token and will only boost access to the security. Those chains are inefficient data infrastructure, not money. If the native token continues to be valued by an increasing number of users worldwide, blockspace becomes more competitive on L1. I find it hilarious that many of the small blockers who are glad-handing themselves for being right in the blockspace wars are NOW claiming that the capped OP_RETURN/no-inscriptions crowd are the dangerous change agents in Bitcoin.

Posole Rojo ala gringo!

Paper Bitcoin gets held in check, when the majority of the Bitcoin in circulation is held in cold storage. Maybe instead of BTCC's, ETF's, etc, etc....we can just get back to the simple rules of financial sovereignty: -Provide Value, Stay Humble, Stack Sats -Cold Store -Run a Node -Solo Mine at Home Let's separate the money from the pedo loving, war mongering, surveillence state.

69k ✅ - 420k here we come

69k ➡️ 420k….I dont make the rules here

From scarcity comes abundance. This is an axiom for life and unironically, for Bitcoin. This too will pass.

69k ➡️ 420k….I dont make the rules here

So we back to 4 year cycle or nah? If so, that was one castrated bull.

5 year HODL. Fucking exhausting.
