We don&#39;t discover value in objects that already have form, objects take form because we value them. Since one of the most important ways that we come to consensus on the value of the objects in our world is through the lense of money, it becomes clear how the nature of our universal unit of account is deeply rooted in the overall health of the human race.<br/><br/>Adopting a lense through a unit of account that embodies the constraints of a bounded universe, as ours is, has monumental implications for the future of our species. <br/><br/> 2026-03-25T00:05:34Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs84r4cttr4z0d05cdwv3g0fell8n7lskvvwseke0x8l46s2890q7szyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5kvajsp4 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9mvu87uyju0e2d0mg63qq4c5e3wsthm23yvqs8xkgaqnh2jrzm2q8yz692'>nevent1q…z692</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Great insight.

Money is and always has been in idea. Gold isn&#39;t money, it&#39;s just the best physical container in our world for this idea. Bitcoin is money in it&#39;s natural environment- the realm of ideas. <br/><br/>It&#39;s fascinating to think that Satoshi, while pragmatically working on a way to make an idea decentralized and scarce, inadvertently created an entire universe, and that this result was likely a natural and inevitable result of his creation. <br/><br/> 2026-03-23T04:13:44Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsdnydf7aqmljguutr0q05pr8gfv9wnuhpm4zs5nar5ajeakd6hlhgzyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5kn62ela In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszsw52wf07sw2rq28jp4zgdymjejjvjprlkns0tw9pdjggyefpq3spz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wcrn6nem'>nevent1q…6nem</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/22d0262e56c92daaf75069f888ad0197496339003496904f215085611ee945c3.gif"> <br/><br/> 2026-03-22T18:01:25Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsg457tu5q4gt8t4c9mkxeyx0w2v6cwsvtcm7p5fax8v5ume5uef8gzyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5kq556ne In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvdlwjxu0zvc34ffhs4eg6vn0m42w7t3dvuelvgww83733w46qezcjrlqk4'>nevent1q…lqk4</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>When I think of the informational realm, I imagine that this began with the first sharing of ideas way back when, then advanced through stories, books, financial transactions, media, etc and and eventually into cyberspace which is where bitcoin was born. <br/><br/>What do you think of this pre-bitcoin informational reality?

And as far as we know, we are the first to ask &#34;why&#34; do we find the next block? <br/><br/>The faith required to face this question and answer &#34;Yes&#34; while knowing that we have no direct evidence of a stated objective by the Creator of the system and never will, is, in my opinion, what leads to all of the qualities that are unique to those who ask &#34;why&#34;. Namely creativity in all it&#39;s forms: art, entrepreneurship, etc. <br/><br/>With bitcoin, we can now observe the value that is achieved when a utxo enters a new state of being, but the utxo will never have access to this understanding, just as we will never know the value of our choice to act within the confines of our own universe. <br/><br/>However, the value that we can now observe, that is created by the discovery of a new bitcoin block, is only valuable is we continue to have faith in the value of our own actions. <br/><br/>This is the eternal source of inspiration that connects and propels the spiral forward: faith. <br/><br/> 2026-03-15T16:56:21Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxcv4gaxgzr8gdfvfkdfwkd9g7y2na8288lfu6flaz7f6fz6y5q9czyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5kduuzv0 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswyh5gzcxkmu7rqytzj7dtpmzu56uz7kzhmpxxdwsgzcv2ezqr6asprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvd5ptpp'>nevent1q…ptpp</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yes, and faith that the act of discovery holds eternal value. <br/><br/> 2026-03-15T06:33:15Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsgehzn78zgasvjt03ga428nqr6tn20tdv5wtc7xuqphrel47x5wsszyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5kqgslfm In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqfsvjuq5faqyxtwp5u0d8zpckcd9egl6u5077xnhrc3lqfkthpdqprdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv8g6nwpxhpzs'>nevent1q…hpzs</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I would love to hear the podcast.

It reminds me thst the real fuel propelling this fractal mirror of time is us humans. If we don&#39;t interact with it, it ends. So is the Creator of our universe involved in this way as well?

Through trial and error I have landed on a process of practice that basically says that I create sonic energy through my instrument with my hands, and direct this energy towards meaning through the pattern of pitches and rhythms that exist in the work I am practicing. <br/><br/>What&#39;s interesting is that the best results come when I choose to observe the music as it appears from the chaos of vibrational energy, instead of actively working to manipulate this energy into shaping the music as I imagine it.<br/><br/>It&#39;s like my purpose as an acting being is to produce an environment in which meaning, which has been there all along, is able to emerge, and that my recognition of this meaning is what allows it to exist, but I am not responsible for managing it or manipulating it. <br/><br/> I came to this through experimentation and trial and error, not through a preconceived theory.

My views have been very influenced by the metaphysics of quality from Robert Pirsig. <br/><br/> In Pirsig&#39;s mind, we choose from the array of probabilities offered by the quantum field, and our choices create the reality that we know. This idea is also seen somewhat in Mises&#39; Human Action. Intention and action towards a preferred end is the cutting edge of human experience. In this light, it makes sense that the act of observing a quantum field changes the way it behaves. <br/><br/>While my understanding of physics is amateur at best, what I like about what you wrote is that you seem to acknowledge that bitcoin, by existing in the informational realm, but also grounded in the classical laws of physics, transcends the randomness of the quantum field by its unique accomplishment of having achieved verifiable consensus of it&#39;s existence as a shared preference within an infinite field.<br/><br/>I&#39;m obviously feeling around in the dark for a connection that I can intuitively feel, but thank you for this inspiration! I&#39;ll certainly keep my eye out for your future work. <br/><br/> 2025-07-16T21:14:25Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsz7mvqkhyz7p4dxrvkz75al5lytt0rtex88wk8c92lset2xa6tfqgzyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5ktaq6ed In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2edzcvt6p28z3uwd7r8vdw9w59sm266zy39m30lvfju7zwjw7sngpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduqr6ne6'>nevent1q…6ne6</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I love this. <br/><br/> 2025-07-16T16:28:06Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsy9a89khmpyvxurvujggq56554sjyt833llrqngy3l0uttn5wzh7gzyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5km6epfu In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsde4trjhpv3slvruxkas09u49tkwa2um9r3lj9u362zeu2p9xpfwgpzemhxue69uhky6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skcrczkuz'>nevent1q…zkuz</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It&#39;s an orchestra that my wife and I built. <a href="https://www.orquestanw.org/">https://www.orquestanw.org/</a> 2025-05-25T16:43:21Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsdyug2ugxn3tw2q0eg474lq4rd8agyn7y04yugd8w20mp6y9f3vrqzyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5kty0q30 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgu80ldwctwm52jjha7thwrmwv5w74a7ss6z37xrjwpwvseyrrw6qpz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wcqpaf0s'>nevent1q…af0s</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Man, you live in my neighborhood.

I think this is an intuitive way to try to orange- pill people because it&#39;s too jarring (and therefore not effective) to say, &#34;everything else is going to zero.&#34;<br/><br/>Maybe some bitcoiners have even convinced themselves that bitcoin will be just another asset class alongside stocks, bonds, and real estate. But deep down, if you have taken the orange pill, you know that bitcoin is going to eat them all. <br/><br/>It&#39;s hard when you can&#39;t share this monumental discovery, even with those closest to you, because to everyone on the outside, this perspective seems completely insane. I&#39;m not sure watering it down is helpful either though. <br/><br/>Probably the best way to handle it is to just keep taking our lumps from everyone around us, watch as bitcoin just keeps winning, and wait for the rest of the world to catch up. 2025-03-19T17:06:17Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfzw43q822y523gmwhq5nme7naufpj57sjlnza7h8dvyterf4dk3qzyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5kh75qz5 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsy95gzlrtzwlpygfmvfmu47gadyn425llpvl5jc003c5w9z4k79jgpr4mhxue69uhkymmnw3ezucnfw33k76tww3ux76m09e3k7mf0gh6s5z'>nevent1q…6s5z</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>To find those vibes, you have to find unique communities.

The &#34;money is decreed&#34; side made the interesting point that gold wasn&#39;t really money until a governing body put a stamp of authenticity on it, and as cringe-worthy as that is, it does seem to have some validity. I started to imagine what I would do with a sizable nugget of gold that I found in my backyard if I was in a society that used cold coins as money. <br/>The fact is, I would probably trade it for gold stamped coins, and take a haircut. I could potentially trade it for a cow, or some land, but if I wanted to buy a hat, I don&#39;t think I would be able to to chip off a chunk of gold and take it into the hat store- even if I had a scale with me. The hat store owner needs to enter the sale into their books, give you a receipt, etc. and that process is more efficient if they accept standardized tokens that communicate well with a community ledger. They would most likely tell you to head down the street to the gold dealer, and return with stamped coins.<br/><br/>Fiat takes this to the extreme, taking pieces of paper and just printing elaborate designs on them that are hard to fake to protect this stamp of authenticity.<br/><br/>The epiphany came when I realized that the most important distinction between Bitcoin and all other forms of money throughout time, is that money until now has always depended on a stamp of authenticity from a governing body in order to conform to a standardized ledger, and Bitcoin does not. Bitcoin is the ledger! Or thinking about it a different way, Bitcoin is the central authority, maintaining its sound monetary properties without incentive, or the ability to influence or be influenced.<br/><br/><br/> 2025-02-10T19:55:09Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs9cypk3whfkehpmclvcqj7t8tap8lyu5rtcvgty4cqkw3vf4xsddqzyzq73ajegkyyvdecq4r4pp8gqcxgc5l4jqevu38vhmchq90jemc5krvtfz0 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw75x57cqt6s2s3fy0a9zf0ncqag33ph8738kgah3wrxa7mfql8zcpramhxue69uhkummnw3ezuetfde6kuer6wasku7nfvuh8xurpvdjs23leww'>nevent1q…leww</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I think the phase transition will be like a flip in global understanding.

This is my first Nostr post. Somehow just the existence of this place provokes deep thought. <br/><br/>My daughter recently explained to me that &#34;First- all of this was in the future, right?&#34; <br/><br/>This logic has proven to be too difficult for me to dismiss, and I now believe that it is probable that the universal sequence of events moves towards the past, not the future. <br/><br/>Time is not sequential, it is relative. We don&#39;t really use it to determine an accurate sequence of events, but rather just to help us keep a semblance of order that we exist within and thrive. <br/><br/> With all of this in mind I would suggest the possibility that life was born as an effort to escape the inevitability of an impending and universal past.<br/><br/>Bitcoin is the first verifiable movement against this sequence. It doesn&#39;t just swim against the stream, it is its own stream. 2023-06-21T05:12:22Z
