A bit about me and my crypto journey.
Thank you to every last person who has ever got involved in any way. It has been a massive team effort to bring this "pirate" movement to mainstream acceptance.
I am a lawyer and venture capitalist from New Zealand who has lived in 11 different countries for over 6 months each. Australia, Japan and England all for over 6 years.
I was an early user of the internet in the late 1980s. I queued to buy Windows 95. I helped run a large tech fund in the late 1990s.
I got very interested in BitGold in 1998 and got super excited. I still am. I could immediately see how crypto currencies would even the financial playing field. A young kid in Africa could now potentially take their whole village from total poverty to massive wealth. Anyone could become a bank overnight.
Blockchain technology has unlimited user cases and benefits.
Bit Gold was never implemented, but its concepts were. 11 years later.
Bitcoin and then other currencies have steadily been developed.
I began teaching about social media in 2007 and especially Twitter from 2009 and wrote the first book about online branding.
I pioneered Twitter chats, the scheduling of posts and worked for Twitter Japan. I was the first to sell an ebook for Bitcoin in 2012. Using a wordpress payment plugin. I then made an encyclopedia about the first 220 currencies and even interviewed some of the founders.
I got a bit disillusioned because of Mt Gox before getting back in in May 2015. I bought the first ever crypto related NFT. I hosted Bitcoin Blab a daily video discussion about crypto and traveled extensively attending and speaking at crypto conferences.
For 2 years from September 2015 to September 2017 I was the number 2 influencer about Bitcoin on Twitter. After the Bitcoin account itself. See the screenshots below taken 2 years apart.
I have always wanted to know and then share everything. Super excited now as the golden age of crypto begins with the new SEC and overall renewed energy in the whole space.
Now that the President of the USA is openly endorsing and promoting crypto the only way is up.
I hope you enjoy the news and insights I post.

Mark this trend down as terrifying.
Do you have any examples yourself?
AI is quickly programming us to write and speak differently. We need to stop using it to write anything immediately.
For example since Chat GPT launched, usage of the word "delve" has increased by around 1,000%. 10 times.
AI frequently uses words like delve, and people are starting to copy that style.
Another common pattern that is increasing rapidly is to start by validating a statement in a very unnatural way. For example "That's actually a very real problem"
The influence of AI isn’t just online. Evidence suggests humans are increasingly using AI-favored words in everyday speech, creating a feedback loop where AI shapes the language of the people who trained it.
In basic terms the human that programmed the AI is now being programmed by the AI It's reality is influencing our reality.
Once we lose language we will become robotic ourselves and we may as well just give up.
@Rubicontech_io@suni_code Hi I have a pet peeve. I will never usually reply or communicate with people who use AI to write comments or posts. I love AI and use it all day. But never to write anything
@Rubicontech_io@suni_code I am making a crypto currency and blockchain based supply chain system that will be used worldwide by all delivery companies. The marketplace business is a showcase and testing ground for the system
GOODBYE POWERPOINT.
Claude 4.7 can create a complete presentation in 60 seconds.
Use these 6 prompts and watch the magic happen.
📌 Save this — it’ll come in handy later.
@Rubicontech_io@suni_code We are an app for FB marketplace. A place mainly for poor people to buy second hand goods. But 50% of people don't have cars to do do pickups. The poor ones
Elon Musk has taught me that anyone can become a billionaire. All you have to do is grow up with millionaire parents who own an emerald mine, get a 35k loan from your dad for your 1st failed venture, find a guy with money to pay for the 2nd venture, move to the United States illegally, buy a hair transplant, get plastic surgery, buy some companies, ask the US govt to give you billions, talk about nonsense on stage while high on ecstasy and ketamine, and give strangers you met online your sperm!
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said:
"AI will create more millionaires in 5 years than the internet did in 20."
A friend of mine who is already building serious wealth with AI believes it wholeheartedly.
He broke down the 5 things every AI millionaire is doing right now.
And I'm sharing all of it with you:
