On the Dollar Milkshake theory, if another nation is set and matched to lose control of their currency. Whether that be from USD or BTC would it not be more rational to lose total control, in all aspects, over your citizens then lose control in only aspects related to the nation itself, to another nation?

This way the USD can't be used as a selective sanctions / political timing weapon on that out of monetary control nations people to achieve power for the US? Choosing BTC by the out of monetary control nation, that nation can offer a new Fiat and various other benefits in exchange for BTC in a carrot on a stick method. While foolish for those that would give up self custody, this would be the only rational path of a collapsed nations currency to maybe reestablish local monetary control again.

Not your keys, not your cheese.

This week's update on my @Club Orange meetup is a good one. I created my first vibe coded plugin for Grayjay app to integrate NOSTR for commenting on that platform. No idea if it actually works and need real world testing. I spent spent multiple days hammering out the design doc and 8 hours building it, learning about different options available to me in this realm of coding.

I also developed and still developing as I find information and models get better a general coding matrix and a BTC specific one. These both need more iterations as I'm learning about what's out there, but I'm familiar with where to look due to my CyberSec job. I look forward to improving these with edge cases over time.

Exciting week for me on my first BTC project.

Equally important 2 bartenders bought about 15$ each of Bitcoin and some shit coins by mistake, held firm on Bitcoin only and I can only help with Bitcoin. They swapped into Bitcoin on cash app. The reason for buying, as I don't push people to buy and actively warn against a person's risk appetite. Was due to comparisons with random economic topics that have popped up over the last 2 years talking to them.

They are looking into BitKey, my push and recommendation for them so not only did I break the "get off zero" barrier but and most importantly multi sig self custody.

Due to global hostility of manufacturing and politics of digital silicon chips now, and in my opinion, even more so into the future. We as Digital and physical sovereigns must look at homemade open source anolog computers for raw power with a low bit LLM and open source Digital chip set.

I don't believe the lower bit digital chip manufacturing will actually be an issue as far as cost and open source framework. But it will be the most difficult for the enthusiastic to reproduce at home, as opposed to the anolog component.

We must get more efficient at Assembly and C, while not to say there won't be many flavors of low level design decisions at this level of programming.

I am just staring at the computer monitor, doing my best.

My Centalized Digital ID template ive been working on, for tracking news updates. You may get some use out of it. Feel free to recommend additions to what to look at with this but there's so much I'm still gathering for this, as well as friction points I am unaware of.


Provide the most current information (as of [CURRENT DATE]) on upcoming US federal, US state-level, and global age verification, digital age gates, "show me your ID/proof of age" requirements, Teen-by-Default policies, and related digital ID infrastructure for accessing/using online content (adult/porn sites, social media platforms, apps, AI chatbots, games, or other restricted material).

Explicitly track and include BOTH types of fingerprinting as reusable Digital ID / surveillance stepping stones:
Metadata / Browser / Device Fingerprinting (~37+ indicators: canvas/WebGL rendering, fonts, hardware concurrency, screen resolution, audio context, timezone, language prefs, etc. used for persistent tracking and age inference)
Biometric Fingerprinting (facial age estimation via video selfie + actual finger-scan biometrics tied to devices, wallets, or verification)

Include:
Any new laws, regulations (or rules that effectively function as mandatory requirements), enforcement start dates, platform policies (e.g. Discord Teen-by-Default), OS-level, app-store-level, app-level, and program/software-level developments.
Bank/credit card company (Visa, Mastercard, Stripe, PayPal, etc.) internal policy changes, updates, or enforcement actions that act as de-facto requirements (e.g. requiring fingerprint-inclusive age assurance or risk payment cutoff).
Categorize and summarize key court rulings, injunctions, ongoing litigation, or Supreme Court/federal/state decisions that affect these requirements (First Amendment implications, etc.).

Structure the response clearly with these sections and time frames (calculate exact windows from [CURRENT DATE]):
**Next 60 days** ([CURRENT DATE] to ~[60 days later]): What activates or becomes enforceable.
**Next 90 days** ([CURRENT DATE] to ~[90 days later]): Additions or changes beyond 60 days.
**Next 180 days** ([CURRENT DATE] to ~[180 days later]): Broader upcoming items.

Separate clearly into:
US Federal Level (FTC, COPPA, KOSA, etc.)
US State Level (list by state where relevant; include adult content sites, social media, app store accountability, device/OS-level signals, etc.)
Global/International (UK Online Safety Act, EU Digital Identity Wallet, Brazil, Australia, Canada, etc.; note cross-border impacts)
Bank / Credit Card Company Policies (Attack Vectors)
Court Rulings & Litigation (categorized)

Be exhaustive but concise: Use bullet points/lists for clarity. Prioritize anything new or changing soon. If nothing is upcoming in a time frame or section, state it explicitly. Cite key sources/tracking orgs (Free Speech Coalition, EFF, AVPA, state legislatures, Ofcom, EU Commission, Texas Tribune, etc.) where possible.

What do you find as of [CURRENT DATE]?

I am not a coder, I am a bird starring at the computer monitor just doing his best. I have my self hosted setup of Agents and LLMs. Damn I can already feel a new unlock of skill, learning, mistakes, and the fill up correction.
You can just build things.
Projects I am looking at building
- Meshtastic, Meshcore and Reticulum Bridge that's Airman proof
- Using these 915mhz radios, WiFiHalow, and Multi Link-PPP to expand Bandwidth at the user controlled level, decentralizing ISP signal and bandwidth control.
- Working with Ecash mints and Lightning Splicing.
- Finding ways to use NOSTR and Pubky differently
- Playing with Opensource hardware and building on that.

These are long term projects. But needed.

Just documenting on my relay Opensource hardware, based on where I see Centralized Digital ID going.

Just a thought or intuition, more accurately put. What is missing from "AI" is instinct which leads to "common sense" in intelligence. Where humans have Instinct and common sense but no inheritance of knowledge, LLMs have all knowledge in real time but no instinct or common sense. So AGI is only possible if we can program a emergent triat over time. Just like nature did with us to give us biological memory / instinct.

Just posting some info I want to keep.

Week 1 of Openclaw self hosted. Running into an issue with ethier a GPU bug or hardware failure of some sort. Got the gateway issues solved and just not gonna use docker. I have some fixes I can do at GRUB level. Wish me luck. I am at any point like 40% know what I'm doing as I'm doing it for the 20th time.

Idea for an openclaw agent team member A Sovereign Individual bot that knows your parameters / Values for Liberty and scans the planet for Laws, Regs, Tax, Passport, Visas, and active court cases that keeps you updated in realtime on where you can either set down permanent roots or a hop destinations. Giving you information on how and where to apply for things, Cost of living impact, etc.
