Sollten wir #Bitcoin Maxis uns für #Stablecoins #Monero u.a. öffnen?

The Sovereign Individual (1999) - thanks to @KonsensusN since 2024 in German translation with a strong foreword by @titusgebel and by @HillebrandMax - what a great, prophetic book.

When there is war, we go to the desert (The Sheltering Desert - the title of the English translation). That worked 85 years ago.
Greetings from #namibia 🇳🇦

Searching for Honey Badger

I'll be out in a few days. My wife and I will be exploring #namibia in the search for the honey badger.

Is there a #bitcoin spot in Namibia worth visiting?

Hey @Milosz @Pareto Project bin begeistert zu hören, dass ihr das Pareto Project auf Nostr baut.
Erinnere mich an unser Gespräch während der #BTC23 in Innsbruck, wo zu fürchten war, dass Überlegungen bestehen, die Plattform auf irgendeiner Shitcoin-Blockchain zu bauen. Gott sei Dank habt Ihr Euch für Nostr entschieden. Gratuliere !!!
Freu mich auch, dass die Einladung, auf der BTC23 zu sprechen (danke für Deine Erwähnung im ㉑-Interview 🔥) einen gewissen Impact hatte.
Wünsche Dir & Euch allen Erfolg, den Du verdienst.

₿52-Cocktail, a symbol for the layer architecture of #Bitcoin:

1st layer (#blockchain): Coffee liqueur (Tia Maria or Kahlúa).
2nd layer (#Liquid): Cream liqueur (e.g. Baileys).
3rd layer (#Lightning): Grand Marnier.

Do not mix the 3 layers, but float them carefully over each other using a bar spoon.
Turn off the light & light up 🔥
Cheers 🥃

German version on Twitter/X

It's fascinating how this graph reflects the business performance of my small event agency in Innsbruck on a one-to-one basis:

founded in 2001 & built up
2005-08 good years
2008-10 total slump (economic & euro crisis)
2011-17 our best years (liquidity bubble)
2018-19 rather poor
2020-22 Covid shutdown
2022-24 weak (recession)

I've learned that our event business runs 6-12 months ahead of the economy, both in downturns and upswings.
Nevertheless, it always surprises me that we, as a small agency in the Tyrolean mountains, are experiencing the decline of German industry so closely and that we are so directly linked to the big stage of the global economy.

This almost cost my father our farm in the remotest South Tyrolean mountain farming village when he built stables in 1981, needed a small loan of 25 million lire (the equivalent of EUR 12,500) from the local bank and suddenly interest rates rose to 25% because in faraway New York the Fed had to defend the dollar against high inflation and Paul Volcker had to raise the key interest rate to over 20%.

How much damage has been caused worldwide by Keynesian economic policy and soft money central banks for decades.

How unfair that the poor countries on the periphery and the little people are always hit first and hardest.
