Ngl, sort of relieved @jack mallers is stepping away from the Bitcoin treasury hot mess, even if they were aiming to it in a way oriented around revenue generating and value creating companies. While obviously not connected, maybe the need to refocus on just stacking our own cold storage staff is the way forward and Bitcoin treasury companies can just go over there and do their fiat thing.

Re thinking the bitcoin treasury first mover:

what if MSTR stayed a business intelligence company?

Honestly couldn’t tell you if this is bitcoin going up, or GBP going down. Either way, happy to have btc.

Few things start the day in a better way than lots of @rektbot posts about shorts getting ruined!!!! Guess that means we’re moving on up!!!

Secretary of State for housing? Mrs 3 house no stamp duty Rayner? This is taking the piss, right?

Gm nostriches, another wild day in the uk yesterday, same old crowd being brought into Downing Street and being giving the most important jobs in the land. Great question from Daniel Priestley on x, what experience outside government does the new cabinet have? We are so, so very screwed. All I can say is that at least Rachel from complaints is not longer a prisoner to the rod for her own back she put in place, but the whole idea of getting back to what Labour does from Burnham is terrifying based on where we are. Labour likes to spend, regulation, nationalise but not actually allow people to make any money. With experience like this, they can’t run a company, never mind a country, they believe is “public spending” they believe is handing money to the lazy (or illlegal, to buy votes), they believe is “foreign aid” hey bru, our foreign aid is getting spent 3 times over on those asylum hotels!!!!! Foreign aid failed and we’re dealing with the fall out, well unless that foreign aid is going to charities run by your “friends”. Deep breath Bitcoin may be down from the all time high, but in gbp terms, it just got a whole lot more valuable. Fool colleague getting into reading something I wrote, wondering if he’ll point out all the things that are wrong (Keynes doesn’t believe this) or appreciate that the Bitcoin (he insists on calling it crypto, maybe just to piss me off) thing I wrote it about and have been speaking to him about for 6 years is maybe worth looking into. A day a head, being told how I need to structure up coming lectures by the quality coordinator in the department…….. ah I think my life as an institutionalised academic is heading towards a cliff, or maybe I’m the recalcitrant worker, just doing enough not to get fired and working on my own projects on company time!!!! #coffeechain!!!

Politics is a wild old game when you’re in the banana republic of unelected communist dictators of the UK (good job I’m not posting this on X). While nothing could be worse than the existing cabinet, given they had to bring their new PM from outside parliament, who can they draw from to fill any of these roles. Guarantee, zero experience or competence being brought to any of the roles.

Attempting to work out where I sit with my existing mstr bag and to be honest, not really feeling it anymore. Useful thought exercise to run through an alternative scenario where they continue with their history of business intelligence! Cheers @walker Joe consorti (get on nostr), @jack mallers for the great breakdown of mstr stakeholders, and Orange Juice for the model that maybe mstr should have stuck with, hold bitcoin, use it as an asset, minimal fiat tomfoolery!!!! 🫡🙌

Gm nostriches, happy Monday, lovely weekend visiting my mother, providing the calm support that only she is able to give, combined with the stern talking, that only a grandmother can give to her granddaughters!!!! Back into the fiat mine for a shorter week as have some time booked to attempt to give the house a lick of paint…… my day off to work on the house? Just a rite of passage of being the man of the house getting shit done and others will only comment on not being done but never get done. But before then, another Monday, another piece to write, this week a little unusual, a “what could have been”, with some spread sheets and numbers thrown into the mix, having had a little inspiration and nudge for @Jeff Booth and the new Orange Juice venture, an idea so good, I started thinking it through a little while back, and they’ve been doing the same. #coffeechain with the tomatoes on a lovely cool morning.

Gm nostriches, watched the first couple of goals with the eldest before catching up on some sleep after yesterday’s 33k step mega day, will this sort me for what ever trials and tribulations await me? can’t tell Absolutely love the metaphor last night’s match provides. Against Argentina, terrified of losing doing what ever it took to not lose but also being trapped by the fear. Last night, without the expectation of a nation of sofa experts and stupid pundits saying “this is our year” they could just relax, and play, and play well. It’s not about conceding less goals (taking an L here or there), it’s about scoring more goals (shooting for the stars and being fine you’ll miss). Trapped by the fear of losing the comfortable fiat existence, losing “that good pension”, it will trap you in a loser mindset. I worry I have that loser mindset in some elements of my life, but I also have (and need to believe more) the confidence that I have the capability and resources to get through some discomfort. Discomfort for the match with Argentina, freedom to fail was the match with France. I didn’t watch either, it’s just bread a circuses, but I’m taking this lesson and time to pursue more “failures” #coffeechain and #dogstr walk looking like a big win in my very near future though. She’s up for it.

Ga nostriches, kids at each other constantly today, so dragged them out with the dog up a local hill, looking for wildlife, and enjoying some perfect early evening sun. Climbing where she shouldn’t have probably been climbing, shouting out into the void and just taking some time with your in built best friend. 😍
