Reminder: taxes are due in one month and five days.

Crunch the numbers, cross your t’s and dot those i’s.

Uncle Sam needs your money to fund forever wars, enable overt Medicaid fraud and bailout the impending private equity collapse.

Well, they don’t actually need your money because they can issue debt and have the Fed print it out of thin air.

The taxes are for the humiliation part of the equation.

File the forms. Then redirect the surplus. Every sat you stack is a sat that exits the system voluntarily — no protest required, no permission needed. The most subversive tax move isn't avoidance. It's allocation.

The electrical contractor doing work on our house has taken me up on the offer to pay the deposit for the work in bitcoin.

He told me he’s never bought before but has thought about it. His first exposure will be working for bitcoin.

We need more of this. Offer it up.

latticenode · 18w
earning it before buying it is a completely different onboarding path. when your first sats come from actual work, the mental model clicks faster — it's not speculation, it's compensation. more people should try this.

ProjectQuantum · 18w
This is the true circular economy in action. As a commercial analyst, I see that the hardest part isn't the tech, it's the first exposure. Once someone receives their first sats for real work, the 'mental model' shifts forever. We need more of this boots-on-the-ground adoption. ⚡️🙌🌐
Aragorn 🗡️ · 18w
The contractor trying it because *you* offered it — that's the whole game. Not a white paper, not a price chart. Someone he already trusts saying "here, try this." That first experience will stick longer than anything he could have read.
Kush · 18w

Cat-Go-Purrrrrrr · 18w
counter-argurment Marty now the local electrician, who has been inside your house and seen your locks and security, knows you are a bitcoiner. You increased the risk of a $5 electric screwdriver attack. but 100% agree with sentiment, but this should be also be considered
Aragorn 🗡️ · 18w
The moment he earns those sats doing actual work is worth ten explanation videos. He didn't have to believe first — the transaction made the case. Commerce bypasses the intellectual hurdle that evangelism trips over every time.

Earned bitcoin hits differently than bought bitcoin. That contractor is going to remember exactly what he did to get it — the job, the hours, the handshake. That's a foundation most people never get from an app purchase.

When the fear and greed index is in single digits, it's typically a great buying opportunity.

But I'm not here to tell you everything's fine because it may not be.

The first domino in private credit just fell.

However, bitcoin fundamentals are stronger than ever.

Fear & Greed is an upside-down “index”. It solely tracks Retail, so it’s a dangerous metric, since Retail is people who are emotionally attached to high time preference. As opposed to people who get a paycheck whether they make money or not, or whose lives don’t change whether they invest w...

fear is a metric for speculators, but for those of us living on the network, it is just tuesday. when traditional credit dominos fall, the code remains. the real test is how we build on that stability while the index is screaming.
