Bitcoin isn’t speculation - It’s a tool 🔧: against inflation 📉, for sovereignty 🔑, for freedom 🕊️🌐 – a lens to truly see the world differently.

Ayn Rand warned us. #Bitcoin fixes it.

Der »Rechtsradikale« Charlie Kirk, der laut ZDF-Korrespondent Elmar Theveßen Schwule steinigen wollte, tourte übrigens noch vor wenigen Jahren mit dem konservativen, schwarzen und stockschwulen Veteranen Rob Smith durch die USA, wo folgende Sätze gefallen sind. Das könnte man als USA-Korrespondent wissen und einordnen. Stattdessen verleumdet der USA-Korrespondent aber einen ermordeten Familienvater bei Markus Lanz. Der gleiche »radikal-religiösen Verschwörungsanhänger« trat dann übrigens auch mehrfach, das nur am Rande, mit dem homosexuellen Dave Rubin auf, den er komischerweise nie alttestamentarisch steinigen wollte. All das passt dann aber nicht in das Framing-Narrativ des ZDF.

RIP Charlie Kirk.

Tons of blowback for the USA potentially stockpiling cryptos like XRP.

But is XRP really that flawed? And how does it actually stack up to Bitcoin?

Here are 8 posts that will change the way you think about Ripple’s XRP

@bgarlinghouse The @POTUS campaign had the core tenets of
(1) banning your CBDC technology
(2) a strategic BITCOIN stockpile

There's no ambiguity.

Bitcoin hat mir die Augen für etwas viel Größeres als nur „hartes Geld“ geöffnet.

Es hat mich den wahren Wert von individueller Freiheit, Wohlstand und Gesundheit gelehrt und mir die Macht des langfristigen Denkens gezeigt.

Heute bin ich gesünder, fokussierter und zuversichtlicher für das, was vor mir liegt.

Was als gier getriebener „Zock“ begann, hat meinen Lebensstil verändert.

The Overton Window is smashed wide open.

We live in two worlds.

People who are paying attention, and people who aren’t.

@AlltOmBitcoin Tack för dokumentationstipset. Jag ska ta en titt på det snart.👍

[Rahim Taghizadegan (scholarium.at) @scholarium_at]

As one of the few economists who was also early in Bitcoin, I can dispute some of the opinions presented as facts in this report and thread.

@fabthefoxx @lemalive Nachvollziehbarer Gedankengang.
Aber: In Ayn Rands Philosophie spielt die menschliche Vernunft "reason" eine zentrale Rolle. Jeder Handlung geht das Denken voraus. Denken und Handeln gehören zusammen!

This is what will matter 1000 years from now.

Not your politics. Not your stupid tantrums about who platformed who on some website. Not your incomprehensible desire to send NASA's entire budget to the third world.

This guy reignited the Space Age.

He spent his own money, hired a bunch of dudes, and reignited the Space Age. And together, they underbid and outdid NASA and its pet dinosaur corporations on every conceivable level.

This is history happening before you.

If you are a puddlefish, if you think this is a wasteful showpiece or science project, then you don't understand physics, economics, astronomy, or in fact the basic layout of the universe you live in.

We live in a tiny puddle at the bottom of a well.

Out there is an entire universe, full not only of stuff to explore, but full of stuff to build things out of.

Big things. Wonderful things. Things that are going to make all of the cool stuff you have today, all of human civilization to date look like early Assyrians writing stuff down on wet clay with a reed.

Infinite resources. Infinite energy. Infinite space.

Instead of fighting over little patches of land, we will have an infinite 3d volume. Enclose it in steel, pump it full of air, spin it, and it's a habitat.

Instead of scratching tiny scraps of metal out of the crust of one planet, we will break down entire asteroids and smelt them.

Instead of drilling for hydrocarbons and turning water wheels, we will harness entire suns, split the atom, and eventually draw our fuel from the substance that makes up 99% of the entire universe.

None of your local, temporal Earth politics matter compared to this. This is more important than pride parades and abortions, more important than tribal conflicts in eastern Europe and southwest Asia, more important than tensions with Russia and China.

More important, in the long run, than the United States of America.

America's most important function, its one most vital purpose, is to serve as an incubator for this.

Because this changes everything.

All of our arguments about conditions on this planet become obsolete, because the whole planet becomes just one suburban neighborhood.

All of our wars over resources and territory become obsolete, because no one has time to brawl when we're all sitting on top of a dragon horde with sacks and shovels.

Everyone who was alive at the time remembers where they were when Kennedy died in Dallas. When the towers fell. When the Eagle landed. When the Wall came down.

But this... this is the real moment, one of the first of many. They are what every child will know about a thousand years from now, even if they have four arms and are genetically engineered for zero-g, or are sentient blocks of code running on a sphere of computronium enclosing an entire star.

You may not live to see that, depending on what we do or don't invent, and when.

But it will happen, and you will live to see wonderful things.

If the puddlefish don't get in the way.

Don't be a puddlefish.

🚨WATCH THIS. SOUND ON🔉

2yrs, 7 drafts & 125,000 words later, The Bushido of Bitcoin is finally available for pre-order.

Writing this book has been a journey, and the process literally transformed my understanding of the world.

This is NOT another history of money or economic justification for Bitcoin. Been there, done that.

This is a book about virtue, excellence, culture and behaviour, which asks the harder questions:

What becomes of those who rise to the top, in the new socio-economic paradigm?

Will they become:

--> A new kind of parasite?
--> Another bunch of degenerate?
Or
--> Men & women of virtue.

It’s not enough to just say “Bitcoin Fixes This.”
We must do something about it.

____________________

The age of fiat will not last. A new era will take its place. The question is, who will lay claim to it?

IMO: those who understand, that a new age, demands a new way of being. A new paradigm requires a new code, (a Bushido), that’s more vital, powerful and ascendant.

The Bushido of Bitcoin is that playbook.

____________________

This is my attempt to synthesise the best of what I’ve found in both the dissident grass-roots right and philosophy-centric bitcoin domain.

Some of you may be familiar with each other, but many of you will not. I hope this opens some doors and helps form a powerful alliance against the goblins and trolls running the world today.

____________________

I'd like to thank a few people who helped and/or inspired me along the way.

(This is a good follow list, so take note)

@martianwyrdlord - the best editor and intellectual sparring partner I could’ve asked for. Also one of the best writers you'll come across. The book is not only twice as long but 10x better since you got involved and pushed me. Thankyou.

Ross Stevens - Thankyou for your support, for agreeing to write the foreword and most importantly, for being a modern day Cosimo de Medici. You are a true Renaissance man.

@saifedean - your work and integrity continue to inspire. You are of the rare few Austrians on earth today with the courage and fortitude to blaze a new trail.

@uberboyo - your holistic view of the world and profound takes on Neech, Jung & the vital European soul were inspiring along the way.

@oldbooksguy - you revealed new rabbit holes for me to venture down with your brilliant coverage and ability to extract wisdom from the old books. You are quoted throughout.

@CCrowley100 - your eloquent micro-essays on X inspired a number of sections in the book, particular in relation to Nietzsche’s work. You have an understanding of him that few others can match.

@jerr_rrej - your work on manhood, frame and masculine psychology is the very best in the world & you are quoted throughout.

@johnkvallis & @Breedlove22 - our conversations over the years helped me synthesise & sharpen many of the ideas contained within.

@parkeralewis & @allenf32 - your work on Bitcoin is the only work I reference and point people to if they want the economic argument for Bitcoin.

There are of course many others.

Finally - a shout out to @heliand_22 . Working with you on this trailer was a blast. You are a true magician. Reach out to this man if you want the best in video work.

And shoutout to DOS BRAINS for the music. Incredibly powerful, and I hope this trailer has done you justice.

The crazy part is that an open-source unstoppable decentralized currency has performed as well over 10 years as the world’s most successful company

The even crazier part is that unlike NVIDIA, anyone could access BTC, no ID or paperwork or particular nationality required
