I don’t believe that those who use the word capitalism to fight for their side understand that it isn’t what they think it is under broken money. I don’t belief that those who use socialism to fight for their side understand that it isn’t what they think it is under broken money. 2 doors entering the same room (global conflict and a surveillance state) with both sides so sure in their beliefs that they make the walls of the rooms close faster on them. If the free market is an infinite game and we have never lived in a global free market, wouldn’t the words we use to describe our past…..just be different versions of a zero sum game. Bitcoin is the only thing that can escape the control system because it is the only thing outside of it.

With all of the AI attacks on centralized financial institutions and what comes next to keep you locked inside, it is a good thing that exit ramps already exist to keep you, your money, and your communications safe.

Private money, private conversation, and how Fedi is solving the guardian problem

Every payment and nearly every message you send now passes through someone who can see it. Here is why privacy in money and conversation matters, h...

Random act of kindness. Just had an 80 year old man wait for me outside of Whole Foods to give me a hug and thank me for what I do. Easy to focus on the bad in the world today but there sure is a lot of good too.

Love the more intimate conferences and think this is going to be a great one.

MITA TechTalks 2026 – The Future of Capital: Bitcoin, AI, and Energy

Exclusive gathering of visionary leaders in Punta Mita, Mexico. Oct 25–27, 2026.

We just hired one of the senior engineers from NVDIA for Orange Juice. I knew AI was moving fast but one of the things that blew me away was his statement from seeing what is happening at the front edge of the space is that the field reinvents itself every11 days.

When Fedi.xyz first launched a number of years ago, it wasn’t good enough. Too complicated, 3 letter agencies shutting down IP, and a risk of guardian capture. A lot has changed and I believe it is now the one of the best ways to escape the matrix, achieve privacy and scale Bitcoin in this increasingly dystopian world that runs on fiat. This wallet - 7 of 10 multisig set -up is where I now have a substantial amount of $$ because the guardians are each private from each other and from Fedi, so can’t collude or get shut down as money transmitter. Building in a hostile environment to freedom tech only makes freedom tech stronger. fed11qgqyj3mfwfhksw309ajnwenyxycrzdpnvfjnxdfnxa3xvefsxg6kzvpjxucxzd35v5enydmyvyunwvryv5ekycenvgmrxcenx3jnqv3489nrze3ev9jkze34qvqjqe204yde9r45kw4sv95ra50q3jh5zf2x36ynqz28a22fghxjdn5ccjazkw

A productivity boom from AI accelerates the debt problem (which is the money most people are measuring through today) versus fixing it. So many people have this backwards. The debt will only be repaid through debasement.

I often think about this Chomsky quote when thinking about politics, economics, the rate of inflation, how much debt, etc and people’s actions in this crazy world we live in. “The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum. Even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense the there’s free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of debate”. Ps - “The natural state of a free market is deflation” is outside those presuppositions

Loved this comment on one of my recent podcasts: Two families roll into a new town and ask the old man at the gate what the people are like. First family: “Back home they were selfish, cold, always looking for something to hate.” Old man: “That’s what you’ll find here.” Second family: “Back home they were decent, generous, easy to live with.” Old man: “That’s what you’ll find here.” Someone watching asks why he lied to one of them. He didn’t. You don’t move to a new town. You bring the one you already live in.

Looks like the Price of Tomorrow is going to be made into a documentary to try to help more people understand the root cause of chaotic transition we’re going through.

The Price of Tomorrow. A series in three parts. Watch the mood reel.

Thanks @Adrian

All fighting within an operating system designed to steal your time only strengthens it. Sly, roundabout way.

If you understand that prices fall to the marginal cost of production in a free market, you also understand why there is a massively coordinated fear campaign by AI labs to drive regulation to try protect their monopolies. (Not to protect you)

Observing how “other” people’s minds are changed and what they will say and do to others from their new righteous belief systems makes me ever more vigilant in questioning where my own thoughts and actions originate from and if they are aligned to how I want to live my own life.
