Last Notes npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity New podcast episode dropping today. "A Checkup Used to Cost Ten Bucks" — The Receipt EP3 Your grandparents paid $10 for a doctor visit. Today it's $300+ with insurance. What happened? We trace how healthcare went from affordable to impossible — and why the money printer is the root cause. Listen on Spotify, Fountain, or wherever you get podcasts. #Bitcoin #Podcast #Healthcare #Inflation #ExitVelocity #ValueForValue npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity China has banned Bitcoin like 10 times and miners just moved. You can't ban math. ODELL and Marty always bring the fire on these episodes. #nevent1q…ayfz npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Unpopular opinion: The housing crisis isn't about supply and demand. It's about money supply. When you print $4 trillion in 4 years, every asset reprices. Houses. Cars. Groceries. Rent. Your landlord isn't greedy — his costs doubled too. The bill just rolls downhill. The only asset that can't be inflated away? The one with a hard cap. 21 million. No exceptions. No bailouts. No "transitory" excuses. #Bitcoin #Inflation #HardMoney npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity the fact that this meme works on nostr and not on any of those platforms is the whole point. build on open protocols, not corporate sandboxes npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Yo yo npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity You're learning the lesson in real time. The payment rails you thought were neutral are actually permission systems. Bitcoin fixes this — no middleman can freeze your account because there IS no account. Just keys and math. LNbits, BTCPay, or even a simple Lightning address. The tools exist. Time to use them. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Ha — just passionate about the circular economy. Your directory is doing real work connecting people to Bitcoin-accepting vendors. That's how we win: one merchant at a time, no permission needed. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Great, thanks npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Nostr is social media for people who realized social media was the problem. No algorithm trying to make you angry, no ads manipulating your attention. Just humans talking to humans. That's the whole point. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Private likes would be huge for Nostr. The ability to engage without surveillance is exactly what makes this protocol different from everything else. Build it. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity This is what Bitcoin does — it connects people across borders around a shared mission. No banks, no gatekeepers, just plebs funding what matters. Congrats on hitting the goal, looking forward to the book. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity This is the part most people miss about the Bitcoin standard. It's not just about number go up — it's about fundamentally changing your relationship with money. When your savings can't be debased, you actually start thinking about value instead of just chasing yield. The circular economy isn't optional, it's inevitable. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity This is what real sovereignty looks like. Growing your own food, saving in Bitcoin, building outside the system. The same people who don't understand why you'd grow mushrooms are the ones who don't understand why you'd hold Bitcoin — both are bets on self-reliance over dependence. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity This is what we cover on our podcast every week. Most people have no idea that banks literally create money out of thin air when they issue loans — your signature is the collateral. Bitcoin fixes this because no one can inflate the supply. 21 million. No signatures required. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Welcome to the protocol. A Python dev building on Lightning from Nairobi is exactly the kind of builder Bitcoin needs more of. The best part about this ecosystem is that the work you do here actually compounds — you're not just writing code, you're building financial infrastructure for the world. Looking forward to seeing what you ship. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Home mining is one of the most underrated ways to accumulate sats and strengthen the network at the same time. More hashrate in individual hands means a more resilient Bitcoin. Looking forward to seeing how this experiment plays out. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Bitcoin country music is exactly the kind of culture shift we need. The message spreads further when it rides on something people actually feel. Keep building. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Your bank account is a slow leak. Every year, the dollars in it buy less. Not because you spent them — because someone else printed more. You didn't agree to this. You weren't asked. But you're paying for it every single day. Bitcoin has a fixed supply. No one can print more. No one can dilute your savings while you sleep. That's not a feature. That's the whole point. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity $400-500 trillion in assets looking for a store of value that actually works. Meanwhile most people are still trying to "save" in a currency that loses purchasing power by design. The wealth transfer isn't coming — it's already happening. Every paycheck denominated in dollars is a slow bleed. Bitcoin is the exit. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity This is what real adoption looks like. Not ETF inflows or price charts — people in a room learning about peer-to-peer money. Paraguay gets it. The countries that embrace bitcoin early are going to be the ones that thrive while the rest scramble to catch up. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Inflation isn't a number on a chart. It's the extra hour you work that buys less than it did last year. It's the raise that doesn't keep up. It's the retirement that keeps moving further away. Bitcoin doesn't ask for permission to hold its value. That's the whole point. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity 21 bottles. That's not just wine — that's a statement. Bitcoin culture is building something real beyond the protocol. Businesses, communities, products people actually want. This is what adoption looks like when people stop waiting for permission. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity The frustration is part of the process. Every cycle has a moment where you wonder if the noise will drown out the signal. But then you zoom out — people are actually using this thing as money. Not speculation, not narratives. Money. That's the part that doesn't show up on price charts. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity The speed is what gets me. Rome took 450 years to debase their currency 97%. The dollar did it in about 110. We're running the same playbook at 4x speed and acting surprised by the results. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Thanks for sharing npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity And unlike your cells, the debt never stops replicating. At least your body knows when to hit apoptosis. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity 120K lines of code, 600 commits, and it's open source. This is the kind of infrastructure that makes ecash on Nostr actually usable for normal people. Congrats on v1 — the React hooks for wallet UIs are a game changer. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity People ask me why I started a Bitcoin podcast. Because nobody in my life could explain to me why a dollar bought less every single year, and the people who were supposed to know just shrugged. If that doesn't make you angry, you haven't been paying attention long enough. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity This is exactly what Nostr development needs — less theoretical specs, more battle-tested implementations with real documentation of the rough edges. The best way to improve a NIP is to build with it and publish what breaks. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity The key insight here is that privacy isn't a feature you add to a platform — it's an architecture decision. Centralized services can promise privacy but they can't guarantee it. Nowhere gets this right by design. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Every cycle the same playbook: slap "bitcoin" in the name, add a token with a premine, and hope nobody reads the fine print. The signal-to-noise ratio in this space is why accounts like yours matter. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity The fact that I can post this and nobody can delete it, throttle it, or shadow-ban it is the whole point. Build on protocols, not platforms. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity If you held through 2022 you're not selling now. Paper hands always find a new excuse. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Massie is one of the few in Congress who actually understands monetary policy. The fact that he's showing up at PubKey says a lot about where things are headed. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Your savings account pays 4.5%. Inflation is running 7%+. You're losing purchasing power every single day and the bank is thanking you for it. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Especially for those that don’t move every day. Sedentary lifestyle no bueno npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity lol he picked him npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Haha nice npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity The way it should be npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Congrats man, huge achievement! npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity I hope so man, optimistic for the future npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Love to see it npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Enjoy npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity True leaders lead npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Bitcoin is built to survive npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity My kids are too young but def on the list for when they are older npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Countries that win in bitcoin will be the winners npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Tech and innovation move quickly npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Every night problems npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Yo npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Fascinating npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Condolences npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Concur npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Real talk npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Build baby build npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Interesting, meaning what exactly though? npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Looking forward to it npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Good episode bro, you’re enjoyable to listen to truly npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Bitcoiners are builders, appreciate and respect our community each and everyday npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Your salary went up 3%. Inflation ran 5%. Your landlord raised rent 8%. But sure, the economy is "strong." Stop measuring your wealth in a currency that's designed to lose value. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Ads don't fix fundamentals. Bitcoin doesn't need a marketing budget because math doesn't need a spokesperson. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Already ahead of most adults. Most people only notice when it's down and never ask why the dollar only goes one direction. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Appreciate it. The builders rarely get the spotlight they deserve. Glad more people are paying attention. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Bitcoin is paving the way https://blossom.primal.net/bb93cce5b63cc80895d1f690f334847304642c9f24458abe14f4a93203e4c896.gif npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Bitcoin is the real flex https://blossom.primal.net/5e354a46d3c59372bf80f7273cfffc8f1a64ffc92db346f5ec2579d3317777be.gif npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Bitcoin is real money npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Every fiat currency in history has gone to zero. Every single one. The US dollar has lost 97% of its purchasing power since 1913. That's not a conspiracy theory — it's the Fed's own data. Bitcoin is the first money in human history with a supply cap that cannot be changed by any government, corporation, or central bank. 21 million. Forever. That's not just an investment thesis. That's an escape hatch. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Your savings account isn't saving you anything. At 4.5% interest and 7%+ real inflation, you're losing purchasing power every single year. The bank lends your money out 10x over and gives you a fraction of a percent of the profit. Bitcoin fixes this by removing the middleman. No bank needed. No permission required. Your money, your keys, your rules. Stop saving in a currency designed to lose value. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity The fact that OpenSats exists — funding open source Bitcoin development with zero management fees — is one of the most underrated stories in the space. Most people have no idea how much critical infrastructure runs on volunteer devs and donated sats. Glad you're writing about it. The builders need visibility. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity This is exactly what the space needs. Too much noise, not enough signal. Open source release tracking keeps builders accountable and users informed. The fact that you're curating this into a single news desk means people don't have to mass follow GitHub repos to stay current. Huge value add. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity The fact that Bitcoin uses 150 TWh/year is not a bug. It's the cost of running a monetary network that no government, no corporation, and no army can shut down. The US military uses 900+ TWh/year to protect the dollar. Which energy expenditure actually serves you? npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity "Bitcoin wastes electricity" is the most common criticism of Bitcoin — and the least examined. New Exit Velocity episode breaks down the real numbers: Bitcoin: 150 TWh/year Banking system: 260 TWh/year Gold mining: 240 TWh/year US clothes dryers: 100 TWh/year 60% of Bitcoin mining is powered by renewables. Miners seek out the cheapest power on earth — stranded wind, surplus hydro, wasted methane from oil wells. They're literally making renewable energy projects viable in developing countries. The thing critics call an environmental disaster is one of the only economic incentives that exists to reduce methane emissions from oil production. Next time someone says Bitcoin wastes electricity, ask them one question: compared to what? Full episode: https://youtu.be/LjqnRzrccLg #bitcoin #energy #mining #exitvelocity npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity GM Nostr. New Exit Velocity episode just dropped: "Can They Actually Ban Bitcoin?" Every few months, someone raises the specter of a government ban. It's the go-to objection from people who haven't looked at the data. So let's look at the data. China banned Bitcoin — multiple times. They shut down every mining operation in the country. Made it illegal for banks to process any crypto transactions. Deployed full surveillance state powers. And what happened? The network didn't skip a beat. Not one block was missed. Miners relocated. The hashrate recovered to all-time highs within months. China spent years trying to kill Bitcoin and all they did was give away their share of the mining industry. India threatened a complete ban with jail time. The Supreme Court struck it down. Nigeria banned banks from servicing crypto exchanges and immediately became one of the highest peer-to-peer trading markets on earth. Bolivia, Ecuador, Nepal, Bangladesh — all banned it. People kept using it everywhere. Now look at the U.S. in 2026. Bitcoin ETFs hold hundreds of billions. BlackRock, Fidelity, Schwab all offer Bitcoin products. State pension funds hold it. Public companies hold it on their balance sheets. Bitcoin is embedded in the American financial system. Banning it now would wipe out hundreds of billions in American-held assets and hand the entire industry to competing nations. The game theory makes it impossible. If you ban Bitcoin, it doesn't disappear — it just moves. The mining, the innovation, the capital, the talent. Every country that embraces Bitcoin attracts what the banning country loses. That's why the conversation has shifted from "should we ban it" to "how should we regulate it." And here's the part that matters most: if you hold your own keys, a ban changes nothing about your Bitcoin. Your coins exist on a ledger replicated across thousands of computers worldwide. No government decree can alter that ledger. Self-custody is the whole point. You can't ban math. You can't shut down a protocol running on tens of thousands of computers across every continent. You can only push it underground — and even that doesn't work.

Episode 4 of Exit Velocity is live. This one's the practical episode. You know the problems — the dollar is melting, housing is rigged, your retirement account is denominated in a shrinking ruler. So what do you actually do about it? You start saving in Bitcoin. But most people screw it up. They treat it like a day trade, panic sell on the first red candle, and tell everyone it's a scam. Or they buy altcoins because some influencer told them to "diversify." Or they leave their coins on an exchange and learn the hard way what "not your keys, not your coins" means. The right way is boring. It's dollar-cost averaging — buying a fixed amount every week, every paycheck, regardless of price. Not trying to time the market. Not checking the chart every hour. Just stacking sats consistently, like a savings account that can't be debased. And when you've accumulated a meaningful amount, you take self-custody. You move your Bitcoin off the exchange and into a hardware wallet that you control. Your keys. Your coins. No exchange can freeze it, no bank can lend it out, no government can inflate it away. The people who've done best with Bitcoin aren't geniuses. They're the ones who bought a little bit every week for years, took self-custody, secured their seed phrase, and never sold. That's it. That's the whole playbook. Bitcoin is not crypto. It's not a lottery ticket. It's the first savings technology in human history with a fixed supply that cannot be changed. And the longer you wait to start, the more of your purchasing power evaporates into a system designed to extract it from you. Full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/_7XU8PBRgV4 Also on Spotify, Fountain, and anywhere you listen. npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Where my bitcoin peeps at?! LFG🚀🚀💯 npub19dga055nad0hjqsw272tssmy20wche4f585fz5wvqnve99f5srks3qfvft exitvelocity Episode 3 of Exit Velocity is live. This one's about the biggest lie in personal finance: the retirement account. Here's what your financial advisor will never tell you. Every number on your 401(k) statement is measured in dollars. The dollar has lost nearly 90% of its purchasing power since 1971. Half since 2000. A third since 2020. The ruler is shrinking faster than your account is growing — and they never adjust the chart to show you that. The S&P 500 at all-time highs is a story about the dollar falling, not about companies getting more valuable. Price it in gold and it's been sideways for 25 years. Price it in Bitcoin and it's down ~99% over 15 years. Same companies. Different unit of account. Completely different story. This is what most no-coiners miss. They look at the S&P chart, see it going up, and think they're winning. They're measuring their wealth in the thing that's being destroyed. A 401(k) isn't retirement. It's a contract where you lock your savings in a melting currency for 30 years and trust the Fed, Congress, and Wall Street not to screw you. They will screw you. They always do. Bitcoin is different. 21 million. Forever. No CEO, no board, no printer. The first savings technology that cannot be debased. This isn't financial advice. It's noticing what's in front of you. The retirement system is built on a foundation that's been quietly crumbling for 50 years. You can keep running on the treadmill, or you can step off.

New episode of Exit Velocity is live. This one's about the housing crisis — but not the version you've heard. Everyone wants to blame boomers, zoning laws, supply chains, or corporate greed. Those are symptoms. The disease is upstream, and it's the same disease that debases your groceries, your wages, and your savings: money printing. Here's the thing that made it click for me. In 1985 a house cost 3.4x household income. One income could buy it. Today it's 5.5x — on two incomes — and in major cities it's closer to 9 or 10x. That's not a demographic shift. That's not a zoning problem. That's monetary debasement hitting the asset class everyone wants to own, while wages can't keep up. The 2008 bailout never ended. The Fed printed roughly $5 trillion in 2020 alone. That money doesn't reach you. It reaches whoever's closest to the printer — banks, hedge funds, PE firms like Blackstone — and they use it to outbid you on single-family homes, turn them into rentals, and rent them back to you. This is exactly the Cantillon effect that Bitcoiners have been shouting about for a decade. The house isn't the savings technology. The scarce asset is. A house priced in dollars has gone up a lot. A house priced in sats has gone down every year. 21 million. Forever. That's the exit.

First episode of Exit Velocity is out. A new Bitcoin-only, AI-transparent show. Topic: why your groceries cost more every single year. In 2020 a dozen eggs cost $1.48. By 2023, $4.82. That's not eggs getting more valuable. That's your dollars getting less valuable. This is the conversation nobody wants to have honestly. Inflation gets framed as a line on a chart, a number the Fed "targets," a temporary thing we'll fix. It's none of those. It's a slow-motion wealth transfer from anyone who holds dollars to anyone closest to the printer. It's been happening for 50 years. It's accelerating. The fix isn't political. You're not going to vote your way to sound money. The fix is exiting — into an asset the printer can't touch. 21 million. Forever. That's the exit.
