Bitcoiners! I've been off grid...just stopping by to drop you a sneak preview and 'early' draft of one of the sections of the book I'm trying to write. (Might have errors - Early draft) This is Part 2 Section 1: Money and Invisible Pressure. #money #bitcoin #gold #book

The more influential someone's opinion becomes, the greater the temptation for others to stop applying "don't trust, verify" to that opinion.
Almost every single Bitcoin influencer I can think of was being paid to promote the Coldcard, and yet I haven't heard of a single influencer who lost any BTC over the past few days. Do these people actually own any BTC, or just the ETF? Or maybe I just haven't heard?

Genuinely feel for everyone affected by the COLDCARD seed issue. The biggest lesson isn't about COLDCARD. It's that reputation is never a substitute for verification. In Bitcoin, every assumption deserves to be questioned, especially the ones we stop thinking about.

Bitcoin solves a problem bigger than fiat. Fiat just made us solve it sooner.

Bitcoin doesn't recognise your timezone.

Bitcoin is objective, but our understanding of it isn't. We can't see Bitcoin as it is, only where we are. Thoughts?

I've just returned from 8 days of complete solitude. I took myself somewhere secluded and remote in the UK. I had a basic shelter and brought enough food and resources to last me for the 8 days without interaction or contact with others. I had my phone in case of emergency, but turned off. Day 1-2 felt like I was in withdrawal. I found myself reaching for my phone without thinking and took more will power than I like to admit to turn it on. My mind was loud and incoherent at times. Day 3-4 the loud and busy thoughts started to clear, but started to play and loop old conversations and regrets. My mind started bringing up unfinished business and unresolved emotions to process. It was both heavy, but also oddly clear at times. Day 5-6 was when I started to settle and more at peace. Enough to start to relax a little and appreciate my surroundings, rather than being caught up in the distractions in my mind. Day 7-8 was when I lost track of time and a sense of urgency and sometimes boredom. It wasn't easy, but I'm glad I did it.

How many iterations of government do we have to go through before we realise the problem is in the money and fiat incentives through perpetual money printing, inflation and a debt cycle that creates a devaluation on our money, time and energy, year on year. #government #election #uk #money #inflation #bitcoin #studybitcoin

When money stops adapting to us, we’re forced to adapt to reality instead. Bitcoin

At first glance, the pairing of psychedelics and Bitcoin might seem unconventional. Weird even. But with a deeper inquiry into both these rabbit holes, the parallels became impossible to ignore. Both are egoless technologies of Truth. But to access that Truth, both require radical self-responsibility in an age where it’s normal to outsource our thinking to the media and our money to banks. Both are humbling reminders that the deeper we go, the more we realize the less we know. And thus invites a lifelong journey of learning with an open heart. Together with @timsaekoo & @btcpsychonaut, I’m organizing a new gathering called Going Beyond Bitcoin, and it stands apart from anything I’ve seen in the Bitcoin or psychedelic worlds. It’s designed for Bitcoiners who already understand the protocol and want to explore what it means to live its principles beyond price action. A curated group committed to integrating Bitcoin's ethos into how they live, lead, and relate in their relationships, health, and inner world. August 9 - 13 2026. 5 days, 4 nights. 30 of us. 5 more spots available. Learn more and apply: goingbeyondbitcoin.com P.S. Their next info call is on April 14th if you'd like to learn more and meet the co-hosts first to get a feel. RSVP here: addevent.com/event/tpq00vykk…

If you consistently show up for yourself, reality eventually has no choice but to reflect it back.
