The future may not be more screen.
It may be technology that recedes.

Many thanks to @kevinkimle and @bitcornCael for having your humble hosts @lucasmaddy and @thewholeframe on their excellent pod, the Bitcorn Podcast. (Link below).
These guys' podcast is criminally overlooked. They are bringing the Ag revolution to Bitcoin--and doing so with substantive topics that go beyond price action or the viral topic du jour.
They have episodes on Bitcoin & Autonomous Grazing Barns, Bitcoin Bills and Agricultural credit, and much more.
Add this podcast to your routine and give these guys a follow.
And check out the latest episode with us: Why Bitcoin Is The Most Natural Money We've Ever Had — According to Thinkers and Farmers

"My Bags Are Big" - a novel by Tibor Fischer
ep. #072 (links below)
Ever wonder what the inner monologue of a cycle-grizzled bitcoiner sounds like?
A crypto-retired former lowest-level tennis agent reflects from Dubai on his "luck", with a Guy Ritchie-worthy cast of fully-cooked characters.
From Disaster Demitri to Obligatory Julian, from Not Guilty to MathCat...there's a pet panther, the sacrifice of a three-way, a hippie hit gone bad...and SO much more.
A short read, a fantastic story.
Most "bitcoin books" are by bitcoiners trying their hand at prose, and understandably trying to tone done the hard money mentions.
Dig in to one that is unabashedly all about it.
Great read, great chat with @LucasMaddy & @thewholeframe
Thanks for listening - now go read!

Resistance Money: A Philosophical Case for Bitcoin
@craigwarmke @rettlerb @resistancemoney
@thewholeframe chooses the best books, @LucasMaddy saddles up for the ride.
We don a veil of ignorance to evaluate bitcoin:
If we could be anyone - rich, poor, young, old - would we want to live in a world with bitcoin, or without?
Interesting thought experiment, yeah?
What incentives influence this decision? What timeframe are we measuring on?
What do you want for the world?

Finding Satoshi - the documentary
Watch the doc. Then watch this pod.
You’ll come away less obsessed with “who” Satoshi was… and far more inspired to become the kind of person who could have been.

Back to the literature stack.
A Lodging of Wayfaring Men.
Incredible book. We had a lot of fun with this.
Bitcoin Study Sessions
Episode #068
Paul Rosenberg wrote the book that (supposedly) inspired Satoshi.
A decade before bitcoin, "A Lodging of Wayfaring" men chronicled the fictional(?) adventure of a group of free souls.
They created a private market, with private money, and gave it to the world.
Sound familiar?
spoiler alert - if you want to read it, definitely read before listening.
btw - you can check out Paul on the mainstage at @TheBitcoinConf and as a featured speaker at upcoming @BTCPrague.
Credit where it's due.

The boys are back in town. A bit of Softwar for your casual listening pleasure.
Bitcoin Study Sessions
Episode #067
@mauoak_ recently published "Beyond Money, Hedge, and Energy: Evaluating Bitcoin as Power Projection Technology" as an evaluation of the claims made by @JasonPLowery 's Softwar thesis.
Where do we stand? This paper is an empirical evaluation of nine falsifiable predictions.
In just three years, five have been confirmed and one partially realized.
The future is Softwar.

Go to the original post by @lucasmaddy to see the earnest philosophical discussion flagged by @x as "age-restricted adult content"
Replying to @LucasMaddy
“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin [studying Bitcoin].”

Unveiling the new black flag of Bitcoin Study Sessions.
There is nothing in this design that does not refer to some aspect of our project here at Bitcoin Study Sessions. Everything means something.
As Paul Ricœur said, "The symbol gives rise to thought.” And it is in the hashing of literature through reflection and discussion that that our enterprise is based.
Many more blocks remain trapped in uncogitated mental space, waiting for the thought that finds them.
Onward!
This is an original work by Cheyenne @bitcoinburnbabe. She took a bundle of mad ideas and distilled them into one cohesive thing.
Incredible work, by an incredible artist.
