Visionary “Since production must always precede predation, the free market is anterior to the State. The State has never been created by a “social contract”; it has always been born in conquest and exploitation.” - Murray Rothbard

However, it isn’t Iran that’s violating my civil liberties - it’s my own government. Therefore, the US government remains enemy #1 for Americans who care about freedom. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Bitcoin is anarchy in action. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’m a PhD student at a university hospital and what’s becoming apparent to me is that the conclusions that you are supposed to draw are not derived from first principles. Rockefeller medicine is simply presented as irrefutable laws of nature, upon which other conclusions can be derived. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey They dont print money so they can go to war.

The fiat system needs to convince the losers that they are winning. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The question is just - will it be to a corporate cloud or will it be self-hosted? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The deeper I get down the bitcoin rabbit hole, the less interested I am in the political conversations. It’s like a seesaw #nevent1q…w48n npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’m a bitcoiner also getting married this year. I’m having the same thoughts. My #1 takeaway is that you want your future wife to enjoy the day. However much BTC you need to spend to achieve that, do it. If it’s not much, great. If it’s a lot, it’s one day, do it anyway. More broadly, I am starting to realize that if we’re right about bitcoin, it won’t actually matter how much we have. We can’t even fathom how much it will be worth. So for a special day like a wedding, don’t be afraid to spend. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey How does this compare to Iris? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The people who were screaming “learn to code!” for the last decade have been awfully quiet recently. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Normie parents believe two contradictory statements. 1. Public schools are effective 2. Parents, who attended public schools, are unqualified to teach their children. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey What’s your setup for this npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Whenever I think there is an industry/craft exempt from fiatification, I am proven wrong.

If you never code, you think “AI is cool. It can tell me the top Thai restaurants in my area” If you’re a programmer, you think “holy crap - this is going to obliterate an immense amount of white collar jobs. And in the next 6-12 months” npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Of all of the downstream evils from fiat money, the collapse in the birth rate is the greatest.

Better ROI than exercise or food imo. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The potential for autonomous bots is obviously off the charts, but right now, it feels too experimental for me to jump in head first. I plan to take it slow and learn from the mistakes of the less cautious. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey What if hyperbitcoinization is driven by bots, not humans? Who had this on their bingo card? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey We cannot unlearn what we have learned. We cannot see the world as we once did. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Fiat food npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Progress is deflationary. Deflation makes debt harder to pay back. Governments are the biggest debtors. Governments oppose deflation and therefore oppose progress. It’s really that simple. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey My agent will see your agent there. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Sound money is the only way the plebs reap the benefits of AI npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey What’s your best advice from what you learned? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Bring back real architecture. Thank you for your service npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Instant follow. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The truth will set you free. But first it will piss you off. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Reminder that family comes first. Everything you do should be in an effort to strengthen your family. If that means buy more bitcoin, buy more bitcoin. If that means sell bitcoin for something more important, do that. We often lose sight of the only thing that matters. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey What happens next? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Just a few months ago, the claim that the current monetary order was ending seemed hyperbolic to the trad-fi bros. But today, this view seems to be more or less mainstream. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey In the fiat world, they look for “job opportunities” In the bitcoin world, we look for “entrepreneurship opportunities” npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey A system’s goal is what it does. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The cool thing about AnCap is that if you want insurance, you can pay for insurance. And if you don’t want insurance… well, you don’t have to have it. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey They hate BTC because they know they can’t succeed in a proof-of-work world. They can only succeed by rent-seeking. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Support open source for the same reason you support free markets. Both allow for permisionless building, and therefore the greatest prosperity for everyone. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey That and NPR doesn’t cover Epstein. Large chunks of boomers and Gen X only focus on what NPR/CNN/Fox tell them to focus on npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey “Bro you let your kids be kids, that’s so cool and crazy” npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Most people don’t think they have agency over their life. They won’t say this, of course, but they act in a way that is only possible if they feel helpless. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey These are the types of people I want to follow npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The Great taking npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey All wars are bankers wars. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Instant follow. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey https://youtu.be/HrehEWYj16s npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey @nprofile…26zu has been talking about this for a while npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Cops put more effort into setting up speed traps than prosecuting pedos. Enough said. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey There is no distinction between gangs/mafias and governments. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Where do you find local meetups? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I think we all owe the “conspiracy theorists” an apology. The more that comes out, the more they are proven right. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’ve noticed people tend to be less career-driven after being orange-pilled. The further down the Bitcoin rabbit hole you go, the more you realize that your job likely serves the fiat masters in one way or another. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey From the West to the East? From nation-states to individuals? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Any pharma company that labels their pharmaceutical product as a “vaccine” is able to tap into the decades-long propaganda campaign of convincing the populace that all vaccines are safe and not to be questioned. They are hoping this label disarms skeptics, as they don’t want to be labeled anti-vaxers npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Ayn Rand would have been such an amazing toxic bitcoiner npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I don’t think anyone is a better person with alcohol than without it npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Either the vaccine works or it doesn’t. If it doesn’t work, there’s obviously no reason to take it (let alone coerce others into doing so) If it does work and you take it, no need to worry about what others do because you’re protected, right? In either case, coercion is not only immoral - it’s also nonsensical. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I currently use Fold because with a monthly subscription ($10), I can swap between BTC and $ for no fee. If I used Strike, I would be paying more than $10/month in conversion fees (I believe). That being said, I might make the switch when your line of credit product comes out. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey A lot easier to orange-pill the 1.6 GPA types than the 4.0 GPA types. The 1.6 GPAs already know that the system is messed up. The 4.0s need to be convinced of that. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Where is this architecture in the US? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey You may have heard that college tuition is becoming more expensive. When priced correctly (in gold), college tuition is flat since 1900. Tuition isn’t going up. Your dollar is going down. https://blossom.primal.net/514f8703c1190b1a8eea97bc6d16f378d4926c0a07f90e915ff1cf8a7f412aa4.jpg npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey You can backtrack on almost any other mistake. You don’t wanna mess this one up. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I was a progressive until I realized that the purpose of welfare wasn’t to provide a safety net, but to make people dependent on the State npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey They reversed the food pyramid? So you’re telling me the “conspiracy theorists” were right again? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Such a bizarre theory put forth by the Tucker Carlson / Dave Collum types. Why would the State create a technology that they knew would lead to their demise? “To lead us to a CBDC” they say. But they never bother to explain how bitcoin adoption “leads” to a CBDC. Why would I ever exchange my bitcoin for CBDC tokens? It’s not a good theory and they don’t need it to be. They just want us to think they are omnipotent. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey https://blossom.primal.net/d8fb0540355ec1f9c4d13c572b9ccb115d94f3b680e81a167a20ef339c30f74a.png npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Puts a dent in the theory that American dominance is dead npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Do you eat carnivore? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’m careful to never bash Dave Smith because he was the one who actually woke me up (shamefully, i was an indoctrinated college student up until 2020). That being said, why is he not bringing up a) the bond market/debt situation and b) bitcoin in every single episode? Same issue I have with all the Mises Institute guys. If you’ve been reading Rothbard for the last 30-40 years, how could you not be a toxic Bitcoin maximalist by now? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey 100%. Any political commentary that doesn’t make regular reference to the bond market is ignoring the elephant in the room npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Expect the Trump administration to continue to telegraph their moves. Theyll overthrow Maduro but only after testing the waters with headlines months beforehand on mainstream media. They’ll cut interest rates, but they’ll warn you months beforehand. They’ll declare a housing emergency, but only after warning you that they would. The element of surprise is no longer a tool at their disposal. Why? Because the bond market is hanging by a thread. They cannot catch the market by surprise or they risk catastrophe. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey As corrupt as this obviously is, polymarket allows us to discover truth quicker. Let’s use their political corruption against them. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The history books will tell our children that COVID would have wiped out humanity without Dr. Fauci and the mRNA vax The case for homeschooling has never been stronger. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The sad thing is that most people will believe the textbook story instead of what they actually experienced. Normies trust “the experts” more than their own eyes. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Bitcoin will fix the world but will get none of the credit. Your normie friends will argue about which statist politician or celebrity saved us. But you’ll know the truth. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Any particular Bible version? Or does it matter? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Any advice on how to get started in the Bible? Read chronologically or emphasize certain books first? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Can’t control how many we get. But we can make sure we don’t miss the ones we do get. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Never miss a sunrise npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Ownership is not a binary - it's a spectrum. Most people think you either own something or you don't. But as inflation and taxation continue to make themselves felt, the line between ownership and "non-ownership" becomes progressively blurred. Here is what I mean... One the extreme end of non-ownership is something like your neighbor's house. Provided you are not a communist, you don't assume to have any claim to your neighbor's house. On the ownership spectrum, this would be a 0/100. On the other extreme end of the spectrum is complete ownership, the only true allodial title - your soul. You can't give away your soul even if you wanted to. It's not tangible. It cannot be stolen. It cannot be outsourced. Your soul is 100/100 owned by you. These are the extremes. In between, we find financial assets such as real estate, equities, fiat currency, precious metals, and bitcoin. You pay property taxes on real estate (ie unrealized capital gains, subsidized rent to the government). You pay capital gains on equities when you sell them. If the price of gold and silver rise high enough, miners will mine more of it, debasing your holdings. Governments print money, debasing your fiat savings. The punch line is this - apart from your soul, bitcoin is the most "ownable" asset in the world. Assuming you self-custody intelligently, it's practically unseizable. The only reason bitcoin gets a 99/100 instead of a 100/100 on the ownership spectrum is that unlike your soul, you could give away your bitcoin if you wanted to. Other than your soul and your bitcoin, every asset in your life is, at best, partially yours. The takeaway here is to invest in things in proportion to the degree that you can own them. Spend no time worrying about the size of your neighbor's house and not much more worrying about how much US govt tokens you accumulate. Spend as much time as you can purifying your soul. With the time you have leftover, stack some sats. Because those are the only two things that are actually yours. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey People who think prepping is “overkill” or “kooky” seem to have forgotten that they made it illegal to go to work in 2020. They shut the world down and nobody was held accountable.
