Incredibly kind words mason thank you, this means a lot. I’m blessed to have a purpose to bring my creativity and skills to, I know there’s a lot of improvement and a long journey, potentially tumultuous ahead but I’m here for it. Onward!
I am pretty darn good at remembering names and faces…. But if you are anonymous online give me some leeway i probably won’t remember who you are right away.
Just had an insane 2 hour conversation at a pub in prague with a software engineer and mathematician…
The guy was soooo freaking close to getting it but was held up on “what makes bitcoin bitcoin” vs some fork or alternative with different parameters. 5 times I explained that if bitcoin forks, it’s no longer bitcoin.
We had a healthy honest and fruitful conversation he told me a bunch of crazy shit about the history of prague and this region… really enjoyed it but in the end I told him man, I feel really bad for you that you don’t have any bitcoin. Told him to try to keep an open mind and look at it again.
Maybe he will maybe he won’t, either way I had a fun time debating a guy with an iq far higher than mine.
Also funny he was only in town because of the Microsoft outage, he had to come to prague to work because he could use teams. lol. What a world.
I find it notable how aggressive the pro ES people are if you state anything negative about the Bukele propaganda/complete farcical narrative that ES is freedom/bitcoin country.
Who’s gonna throw some hate my way? I’ve been to ES 3 times and supported many of the builders there, spent sats at tons of businesses.
There are fantastic grassroots projects, but if you live in a country with rule of law and individual freedom, probably stay put;)
It’s not that it’s a failure, it’s just that people need to know the truth before they make a big financial decision and get trapped in overpriced real estate or worse.
