Last Notes npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Well worth a read, and really think about where the rights the godless secularists want to demand from everyone while they aim to burn the kingdom because they have no children that will want to inherit it. #nevent1q…8u7p npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Someone liked an old note and I reckon still relevant today.

Crazy to think that come next year, this pod will already be 4 years old @nprofile…2ds2 and @nprofile…0fg3 , coming out of the bear of 2022, maybe searching for hopium a little too hard, but have definitely had some fun since this podcast! https://fountain.fm/episode/9Xxzz9Nq6GAUG1x7JzOi #nevent1q…d8zr npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe I welcome the day AI can replicate my nuanced combination of insight and typos/just not making sense. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe While making an “old map” with tea, youngest discovered the only reason adults day “don’t play with matches”, is because they want to keep the fun all to themselves!!! https://blossom.primal.net/8a4fb73c8cd1ee04027dcd201c30a335217f974aa6680adce6be86f16b587b0d.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Gm nostriches, back home to very autumnal weather, draight fears done, flooding fears engaged!!!!! #coffeechain and #catstr.

If we disagree with those oppressive powers, we become a dissident. If we don’t actively work against what they want and work to maintain our freedoms, we are complicit, “we are on the side of the oppressors”. https://blossom.primal.net/7aceb9b96f47a875301a039bbcbf04e70e9fe65a703bff7b188efb68a87f4684.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/c17ebdf7513d6eaacf8cfb7bcdbfa45e4cb7a1f02a94b29a67ebafe20d392d9c.jpg #nevent1q…5us7 npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Gm nostriches, this time three years ago I was in Paris. Managed to grab a cheeky glass of wine at this bar, would be great to see if it is still there and see how the guy is doing, and maybe talk more about bitcoin to him. Wearing a bitcoin hat (until I left it in security) wearing a Bitcoin shirt around the city was the way, but after the last year or so, with the French tax authority selling data to gangs and so many wrench attacks, absolutely no intention of showing to anyone that I’m into “the coin”. Really interested to see how the city has changed over this time, while the chance of a riot is low, AI says the chances are always there, it’s basically a powered keg. Just hope the cultural creep hasn’t stopped there being steak tar tar on the menu with a nice glass of house red!!!!! Love the French for the don’t give a shit attitude and just saying fuck you when they’re asked to change, hope this hasn’t changed. #coffeechain to start a day of travel, to London first, then onto the Eurostar, through the new humiliation ritual! Hoping there is a cafe close buy for a late dinner. Wish me luck! https://blossom.primal.net/c5bca0592d46d322728c480b111147f76d94426639578541d055dcb725511b3b.jpg #nevent1q…hgaf npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe 🫡🙌 when the first born was on the way, i worried, but there was no competition, the dog never woke me in the night, he was always number one in my life. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe They’d be arrested for just thinking about doing this. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Download a vpn, NOW, get some bitcoin, use signal/radar, stop using any site that requires you to identify yourself.

Austerity leading to the Great Depression, oh yeah, who has the appetite for that…….. which politicians have the backbone for that, only for the next election to give their opponent their seat (and their zero effort paycheque). Biggest problem is the ability for these Charlatans to market to their voter base, “we’ll continue giving you free stuff it you vote for us”. The problem with Austrian economics is it’s honest and requires hard work. The secret sauce of communism? Promising free shit for lazy people to buy their votes, the power of the marketing drowns out all arguments related to “evidence”. Hmmm, maybe that’s why I dislike marketing so much. Deep breath, stay away from the commies, have fresh eyes for those who justify such policies, they know not what they say, and don’t have the agency to actually find their own answers, they are lazy and want the easy answers. Interesting seeing a trezor advert on YouTube this morning, if only I could order it and not worry about having my address hacked……. Only the plus side, ledger have already doxed my address so wouldn’t get any worse. https://blossom.primal.net/4a3387aa03dd9aa7a490a56fd2d9d46ecebe69930704fa6aba902695b5974f0f.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/6d221983a87180c35c304ef80f1d44e93a1c3b102d6cc872508f83777904553a.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/b5e6a8f0f8d6e28d6ad34a7c3ed8487782905143358a1f1fd2cf2a90393056b1.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe The bear market suit has been left at home.

Will we get beaten back down and put in a lower low, or will we be able to break through if there is resistance…… who knows, but better to be prepared than surprised/scarred. Loving some early(ish) morning #coffeechain, with some Andor, corporate and bureaucratic maladies of the Empire (working to the system rather than any actual goals) and wrongful imprisonment basically breeding the rebellion…………. Hmmmm, is this a show about western democracy? Keep it calm freaks, prepare for the looseness, hold on tight, and don’t plead guilty to a crime you didn’t commit, that is what they want…….. whoa, that suddenly got loose. https://blossom.primal.net/f4e7d35b8def2c4cbe96513e82e99257f0f6612660a820a329dc66b6e376e51d.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/73292a6d1cce1d973ab2d829507cbb6fd766347dcc75d036c077d85f8c1ed4dd.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe But what did they have to sell for this fiat and buybacks. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Got a bit of time to myself and went for spin. Found a new line, got pretty steep, then got steeper, I then got a bit loose. Like this year I suppose, started falling, steadied, got me excited in April, then fell again, and coldcard led to some significant looseness. Take the line, enjoyed the speed, be ready for some looseness, but no matter what happens, don’t let go and make it to the end. Faint heart never won a fair stack of the orange coin. https://blossom.primal.net/5b9f367406864892d5309daaf1fa89caf8943ba65d94cf2dd4061be99246a17d.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/ff200538d62bae3144edbc1a2c0cb61326f6ed88249e2fca11e4f45fdf98dd8e.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/bb5e01cb28e101011549f80017c5c565a91ec1438fa4256f3688e137e993bb2c.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Putin: challenge accepted npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Black swans around every corner. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Closing in on 80k, 😮💨 npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Needs more chemtrails!!!! 🫡🙌 npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Stop spamming my timeline. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Gm nostriches, while Jacob is a bit of a caricature , a simple review of what’s happening in the global markets with government overspending playing into global currency tomfoolery, with a useful historic British angle. No one has any money, printers are going brrrr, and when one currency collapses, Peter starts having to pay Paul, with his ninth credit card. Absolutely zero suggestions of what to do, other than, I reckon, hold cash (but then he’s not convinced about bitcoin).

Was looking forward to some quiet times with the family, and hopefully a bit of bike riding during the summer doldrums but ended up with some serious wildness with coldcard, and the treasury restarting operation twist as well as screwing the euro to save the yen. Last week I was poor, now a little less so……. As with every trade, may have sat out of mstr and missed the pump, but from another account, it’s still 65% down on entry, so even if I’ve missed this week, 🤞 it should at least be able to follow along behind Bitcoin (as cannot hold it in my pension) but once this happens, I’m leaving it behind (says the gambler). Moving into September, historically a bad month, back to school, back to the fiat grind, happy to make it out from summer alive (financially and emotionally). We could easily continue to bump until 2926 and into 2027 is 22-23 provides any other insight (should have ran the numbers yesterday), but given the reaction of a change in treasury policy, we could be a coiled spring. AI 🤖 etc may have been making highs on vibes and potential over the last couple of years, but bitcoin could be set to be the safe haven for when the fiat system, (we have the dollar the yen and the euro in the party at once, GBP will be drawn in soon enough). Cards are gradually being taken from the base of the house of cards, don’t think you’ll be able to react, position accordingly freaks. #coffeechain and Andor kinda morning. https://blossom.primal.net/9227408e06ca69048fe653dbb7c02952fe94d795003af90cc219fd960e120468.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe I just published a new read on Nostr!

Hoping the rest of the crowd can cope without my calming influence….. yesterday planned bike ride was a total bust and day ended up being room tidying…….. hmmm, unlikely the memories that will last a lifetime. But ah, I digress. While a couple of fiat duties and the obligatory time sink of emails, a few little exercises to keep me busy through the day, maybe look at inflation and US wages growth (compared to the UK)……. But a little unpicking of big Bitcoin, the associated mind map and Bitcoin backed loans……..🫡🙌 possibly too much for a single day, but can at least make a start. Beautifully calm, cool day, might not wear shorts for work! The price continues to rip, always a good way to start a Friday and maybe it’s fiat payday to boot. Still holding the line by not buying my mstr back…….. potential fiat gains is one thing, but may simply exit that whole fiat car wreck, given it’s primarily in my pension, don’t plan on ever drawing from it, so no sleep lost. #coffeechain and #baconbapstr to start things moving. https://blossom.primal.net/1a2d5c47b4cd06dc035164f4498e15a84f158d37c95f9748ec196303a1f5fd27.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/3653f78e5ec29b581c0b3fd6b63242cd4f097f5b9a332acfe02b60d595be99ce.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Great WBD live event, and while slightly sobering in places, a great new position to be in, even after recent returns to the olden days of double digit pumps. Moving forward Bitcoin may no longer be the “new hotness”, better investment opportunities are always available (cleaning bins is a real money spinner), and will be available, and that is fine, NGU doesn’t need to be the marketing tool any more. It doesn’t have to be about NGU, but learning, being a better father, son, husband or friend (or what ever the lady equivalent may be), knowing the government is only there to stand on your neck (they never want to save you) and having a tool that helps you say “fuck you” (and also buy guns and drugs, if that’s want you want). So sure buddy, your AI, memory or chip play (even bloody gold) may have done well (better than Bitcoin), but you still rely on government infrastructure for any of those paper gains and you will be paying cap gains, only to hold in dollars, being eaten by inflation, while you wait to buy what ever your government sponsored fiat currency is allowed to be spent on, likely chowing down on a side dish of fiat slop and pharma. It isn’t just about making money. It’s not about the money, rather the truths we learnt along the way.

Given my inability to trade was expecting holding cash/gold over mstr over the summer was always going to backfire, BUT, helping me not get excited/annoyed, there will be a pull back, there may be a final puke, that even a nearly 10% day (up, first this year, had a few downs) shouldn’t get us too excited for. Very good chance a bear market fake out, but also…….. sorry guys….. this time is different?!?!? 🤦♂️ So, let’s put that to one side for a moment, heading out with the eldest this morning, will attempt to convince her (and the youngest) that a day on the bikes is the best way of spending today. Eldest was in a funk so got her working on the bike in preparation, and informing her I’d got some mars bars to have during the bike ride……. Served in harvest (iykyk, @nprofile…vz7g and @nprofile…sjx0 🫡🙌). Which may have won her over! “That all is as thinking makes it so - and you control your thinking” #meditations, going to share this with the eldest in an effort to help her better control her funk and realize biking riding will fix quite a few things. “Dad you’re not that type of Doctor!” But how many physicians read philosophy to inform how they support your thinking process?!?!? #catstr and #coffeechain and #marcus type of morning! https://blossom.primal.net/fa6e765f09a264bffe8c84760633ca83098d6bc273cd10d1935ff9dbd6cdf998.jpg npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe Amen to that brother.

Great @npub1rxy…hnp8 episode with all the hardware wallets https://fountain.fm/episode/M5e02dY6Fsb7iN8C71Br, definitely the balance between security and complexity, with the added cherry on top of now deciding how to get the product delivered to my house, or somewhere else……… “hey buddy (someone you don’t like), can I have a packed delivered to your house” Now onto @nprofile…45m0 with @nprofile…zkq6 . Slightly dubious about the “I think the institutions are coming” [again], sorry Danny, but given I have you firmly placed in the “big bitcoin” camp, while evidence would support your view, the way this was shared was slightly too “sponsor aligned” and gleeful, good James pushed back a little. https://fountain.fm/episode/fswEsRs4bpCm4vYNit0Z As always, need to bring the price spreadsheet out to “run the numbers” and was absolutely ahead of myself a few months ago that “the bear was done, up only”, but what James said about June 17th 2022 matching with Feb 2026, then 5 months before the absolutely bottom (ftx) then scraping that bottom, then an entire year not able to breech 30k (but still allow 100% candle for 2023), we could really have a long road ahead of us. Given where we started, March 2023 lines up with Nov 2026, so if we started stepping up, maybe 50% off the bottom, $90k is pretty sweet, then another 9 months to this time next year, 2x the bottom and we are sitting at $120k again, reckon that would be quite manageable. But as I said, need to get the numbers and start plotting these bears next to one another. npub1zrmu0amjmkynxlxgmdsyrjmp8vhxdz8ch5vja9vh9ym4natg8k5s8ge9wx DugandRupe “Every intelligent boy of 16 is a socialist.
