I am consistently blown away by how many people still haven’t fully recognized that a system of credit and manipulation of money MUST centralize because it is opposition to the free market.

And even when they do realize, they continue to give their all energy to that system - thinking there is a way out, while making it stronger.

FYI - posted this because good friends (who I thought understood) just sent me a list of investments that would benefit from free AI - without having #bitcoin as the protocol repricing it all.

Jeff, the quicker you understand you belong to the 2% on the bell curve the less you will get blown away. My net worth has multiplied exponentially due to reading your book and a large cohort of people in my life have loaned it an yet are NOT buying btc... BECAUSE IT IS TOO RISKY... I do not even g...

The foundational literature of Alcoholic’s Anonymous claims that some alcoholics will never find sobriety because of an indomitable inability to be honest with themselves, a crucial component of the program. I wonder if the fiat mind virus is similar in that some people are simply incapable of se...

Remind me of this excerpt from JBP’s We Who Wrestle With God that I read yesterday. He’s talking about this without knowing he’s talking about this. In keeping with this vision, the state does not allow its citizens their freedom. The state that forbids its constituent individuals to pay att...

It’s crazy to me that people aren’t scrambling to try and save their time and energy in a monetary unit connected to physics & mathematics. AI is going to be so disruptive to people’s livelihoods. They can’t possibly compete against an AI bot regarding task efficiency. People need to stac...

What would you recommend Jeff? I teach in a state school and I an failing to orange pill anyone. Should I strike out and start my own school? I like the community aspect of a school but centralised control stifles innovation and creativity. I've been hopeful that if I stick it out things will eventu...

I am blown away by the fact the most people simply don't understand money, yet most of their time and energy goes towards obtaining it. Most of their material worries stem from the lack of it, yet they couldn't describe in simple terms what's wrong with it. How can something so central be so misund...

Agreed! I spent 6 years traveling around the US meeting with thousands of advisors. Maybe 5 of them understood money let alone being able to read the tea leaves of manipulated markets.

This is a common engineering instinct - you see a problem you try to fix it. You don't take that "step back" that everyone talks about, but no one takes. I saw how international wires between banks are settled with a group of ladies sitting in an office in each bank and they print out the transacti...

We definitely need Jeff Booth at this time more than ever! The bitcoin ecosystem is there we just need to use it! Shout out to nostr:npub1l8ktdyyhwxh4ty5cf48tl72g8ra286nr9klmvqznvk3aqyjkucgsem97q9 in Thailand, I have onboarded people onto Bitcoin I never could off because of this technology 👍 #se...

Any warfighting technique done by disciplined inner groups outperforms than the same technique without the discipline and coordination. Decentralization is liberation and power. Nothing about that is good for the unified front they present against you.

They think AI generate real growth in dollar terms. It’s hard to grasp.

Thanks for being here, Jeff. what I have found is that most people don't care about the system as long as they have access to it.

Hi Jeff, I am curious about your take on Joe Bryan's movie "What's the Problem?" which tries to make these exact questions more relatable! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtFOxNbmD38

I appreciate the sentiment. Now everyone quit your fiat jobs and stop using tax sheltered retirement accounts, today! 🫠 We’re still in the “gradually” phase…

It’s as if many have found the Bitcoin portal, but only treat it like an emergency exit; they work to make the exit bigger, yet hesitate to exit completely and build on the other side, hoping they can somehow fix this broken fiat universe—not realizing that the entire system is designed to consu...

To be fair, most people don’t like to think. Especially about depressing things like this.

I’ve only recently begun wrapping my mind around the idea that AI can be controlled by a government. The only thing that will constrain AI is a real cost tied to energy. Even “free energy” technologies wouldn’t actually be free and no human being alive has the capacity to assess such costs. ...

Maybe they're in a comfortable enough position compared to the rest and they just don't care about this better world that #bitcoin provides. Or maybe they fear somehow, states won't "allow" this better world, proving that those ppl really don't understand bitcoin.. Or they fear about how this new wo...

Fiat is a ticking time bomb. Bitcoin is the escape hatch. AI won't save a broken system. Invest accordingly.

People need to hear it multiple times before it sinks in. I'm grateful for the time and effort you spend spreading the message, Jeff. Every time I hear you speak, I learn something new.

Even for orangepilled it easy to don't fall back into "the habits" of the fiat world. Because the fiat world is still very much the dominant thing and you have to interact with it often on daily basis. It's a muscle memory that you have to be conscious about and place it into an orangepilled box in ...

What do you think of Erik Vorhees way to implement a private AI(and decentralized?) and a token not based on the Bitcoin layer?
Clapton1062 · 88w
Hi Jeff, I totally agree with you and understand we must shift to the world of BTC. However, my work salary is based on a fiat currency so how can I shift my energy into a BTC world? Any suggestions? Thanks and great appreciation for your book “Price of Tomorrow”.

MSTR acquiring bitcoin but not showing onchain addresses is another form of centralization. Saylor is pulling the ol’ “Just trust me bro” with coinbase and with 2M+ of the bitcoins in coinbase custody, that’s an unhealthy amount of centralization we’re experiencing within the bitcoin ecosy...
