"I don't want to change the world too many time without having some idea of the consequences of it". ~Warren Buffet on A.I.

Never been a big fan of UBI as it always sounded like something that couldn’t possibly be grounded in disciplined, sound monetary policy. But looking at where we’re heading now, with wealth concentrating faster than productivity can catch up, and AI evolving much faster than expected, it’s hard to deny we may have no choice. UBI will be necessary, not optional. If technology keeps replacing labor at this pace, the idea that everyone can “just reskill” starts to sound detached from reality. The most logical way to fund it wouldn’t be through blanket taxation or traditional welfare structures, but by introducing a UBI tax specifically on the biggest corporations, namely the ones benefiting most from automation and data monopolies. That money could be redistributed through transparent, decentralized mechanisms. This might sound like punishing success, “taxing the rich,” or creating another bloated socialist program. But we have to acknowledge that the economic engine is being rewired, and without some kind of systemic adjustment, the gears are going to strip.

What if the cycle top predictions are a self-fullfilling prophecy? Could irrationality take over from market dynamics?

I mapped assets against the functions of money: SoV, MoE, UoA, and investments. Bitcoin sits between gold and growth stocks—edging from Store of Value toward Medium of Exchange. The central question remains: will Bitcoin mature into the full set of monetary functions?

Forming opinions on what feels righteous is like running your brain on factory firmware - compatible with every device, safe by default, but not really yours.

After 10 days of IBD on a raspberry pi 4 (4gb ram, 64gb SD, 2TB SSD) with StartOS, the whole thing decided to hang and fail to restart or continue (around 40%)☠️. After half day of troubleshooting: @Start9 I can confirm running a full node on a rpi is setting yourself up for pain and failure. You recommended against it and I can now endorse this message for other plebs out there. 🫡 I will look into getting a Start9 server to run a node and combine with n8n workflows and Home Assistant.

When you discover your doorbell had Bitcoin on it this whole time🤯 Noticed this while drunk💯

Just bought a bigger hard drive to get my node ready for all the filth it's gonna receive when Core 30 gets released.

JPEG tourists: kindly eject your trash onto clownchains. Bitcoin isn’t your landfill.

Bitcoin is p2p cash. Not p2p pixels. Bitcoin is a store of monetary value. Not a store of jpegs. A neutral system should give nodes the right to relay only what contributes to the above. If not for the preservation of the commons, then at least for moral self-preservation.

A free market with private property is a decentralized process of resource allocation, guided by prices and entrepreneurial use of one’s own property under subjective value.

Finally diving into The Genesis Book by @Aaron van Wirdum , and wow, it hooks you from page one.
