Recent Notes

An automobile has one purpose: to carry a person of discernment from where they are to where they wish to be. Nothing more is asked. Nothing more is offered.

Discretion is about not tracking where you go. Privacy is about not recording what you say. Respect is about not studying your face to determine whether you are fit to hold the wheel.

This automobile does none of these things. Nor will it presume to drive you autonomously. The road ahead belongs to you. As it always has.

Some things need not be invented. They need only be preserved.

Discretion and privacy eroded by fiat's inflation tax, devaluing purchasing power 25% since 2008.

Everyone in Bitcoin is telling you to hodl. Nobody is telling you to spend... 😬

Here's the problem with that: A currency nobody spends is not a currency, it's a museum exhibit.
Gold became irrelevant the moment governments convinced people to store it in vaults and accept paper instead. That's exactly what happens when an entire community builds an identity around never spending their money.

Satoshi didn't write a whitepaper about a store of value. He wrote about a peer-to-peer electronic cash system... Cash as in, you use it.

The path to mass adoption isn't a million people locking Bitcoin in cold storage and waiting to become billionaires. It's a million people buying coffee, paying rent, sending money home to their families, and replacing what they spent.

Spend and replace, that's how a currency wins.
Hodl to death is how it becomes a relic.

Yes, but.... This only works with De Minimis exemption. Otherwise you're asking for people to record literally every transaction they make for tax purposes, which is both insanely complicated and dystopian.

HODL doesn’t mean “no spending”; it just means that you think twice before spending. So this whole “no spending” narrative is wrong, because everybody spends their Bitcoin at some point. If I already have a nostr:nprofile1qqsppdnxpjc82jlm3yn9gawhv7p4nm69a3f80rg5ycw305xned2s0hcpz3mhxue69u...
