[DocumentingLibs @HistorianUSA1]

A doorbell camera captures two Soldiers—one a battle-hardened Sergeant Major, the other an officer—standing at a family’s door in full dress uniform. They wait with quiet dignity, heads up, eyes steady. The weight of what they’re there to do is written on their faces.

They’re not delivering good news.

As we approach Memorial Day, it’s easy to post flags and barbecues. But this is the real cost. Since our nation’s founding, as many as 1.4 million American service members have made the ultimate sacrifice—fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters—who never came home.

Every Gold Star family knows that knock. Every folded flag, every name on a wall, every empty seat at the table carries a story of love, duty, and unbearable loss.

Tonight I’m praying for every family who’s ever answered that door. For every name we must never forget. And for the brave men and women in uniform who still carry the hardest mission of all: telling a family their hero is gone.

We owe them everything.

Freedom isn’t free. It’s given by the blood of patriotic heroes.

🥷@craigraw just shipped Silent Payments receiving in Sparrow Wallet!

One Bitcoin address. Reuse it forever. Zero privacy loss.

This is one of the biggest privacy upgrades Bitcoin has had in years. Here's why it matters and what Silent Payments actually are. 🧵

Did you know that if you put 100 black ants and 100 red ants together in a jar, they usually coexist peacefully? But if you shake the jar hard, they immediately turn on each other and start killing one another. The red ants see the black ants as enemies, and the black ants see the red ants as enemies. Yet the real enemy is the one shaking the jar.
The same thing happens in human society. Before we turn on each other, we should stop and ask ourselves: who is shaking the jar?

😳 https://t.co/vjabmBJfRM Here's what you can actually DO right now:

FISA Section 702 expires April 20. Call your representatives. Demand warrant requirements for searching Americans' communications. This is the single most impactful thing you can do in the next 7 weeks.
Ask your reps to support the Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act — it would close the data broker loophole that lets the government buy your location data without a warrant.
Watch the Anthropic court case. The precedent it sets will determine whether the government can punish ANY American company that refuses to build surveillance tools.
Support @EFF, @ACLU, @BrennanCenter, and @POGOBlog — they're doing the actual legal work on these issues.
Share this information. The biggest advantage a surveillance state has is public indifference. Most people don't know about the FISA deadline. Most people don't know about the data broker loophole. Most people don't know what "any lawful purpose" actually means.

Now you do. Pass it on.

Very cool overview of who owns Bitcoin.

[Autism Capital 🧩 @AutismCapital]

@TheChiefNerd This is unironically good for Bitcoin. This is literally what it was made for. People can and will park their money into an unseizable asset. Private keys THEY control. And they will defend it. Physically. This is an inevitable outcome if they start to steal. Not fantasy. Future.

The biggest problem with gold and silver is they are both FUNCTIONALLY USELESS when you *actually* need them.

🇩🇪 in 1923 (Weimar confiscation) - Gold demanded for reparations, refusal criminalized, jailed for up to 30+ years.

🇺🇸 in 1931 (Exec order 6102) - Turn in all gold to government or face prison time.

🇨🇳 in 1950 (People’s Bank decree) - All private gold must be surrendered to state, refusal meant “counter-revolutionary” charges, labor camps or DEATH PENALTY

🇬🇧 in 1939 (Defence Regulations) - Gold requisitioned for war effort, refusal meant imprisonment.

🇮🇳 in 1962 (Gold Control Act) - Private gold ownership banned, violations punishable by imprisonment.

EVERY major global superpower has stormed private domiciles, arrested and jailed citizens when gold worked too well in hyperinflationary periods.

Goldbugs fail to understand that you either need to time the market and try and buy a less SEIZABLE asset (land? lmao), enjoy consumables with your new wealth, or wait too long and inevitably have it seized.

Bitcoin is the ONLY asset that cannot be claimed by violence or regulation.

THAT is the killer feature.

I can timelock my bitcoin using script opcodes, making it cryptographically impossible to spend until a predetermined date, even if you manage to get my keys.

I can split custody across multiple global counterparties with multisig so no single government can seize it.

I can obfuscate all onramps and transactions using second layers like Lightning and Liquid, making the entire chain of ownership invisible to surveillance.

It is the only asset where you can store $100M of value that not only can’t be confiscated—the government doesn’t even know it EXISTS.

And i know some midcurves will say “that’s criminal money laundering.”

Cool.

India used Bitcoin to settle trade with Russia when SWIFT was weaponized.

Guess they’re criminals too.

When the government wants something from you, they take it, and you become a defacto criminal.

Law does not matter to Bitcoin.

That makes it infinitely more valuable than shiny rocks.

Can anyone tell me if this chart lead to anything consequential happening in Germany after 1923?

[Bitcoin Teddy @Bitcoin_Teddy]

When I listened to this episode of Joe Rogan with Andreas Antonopolous in 2016 it made sense because I was new to Bitcoin.

But now in 2026 we all can see that Andreas was 100% right. This is exactly what's happening in our society right now.

[The Wheelie Investor @WheelieInvestor]

This coin that represents $1 in value is now worth $100

That means our dollar has lost 99% of its value

You NEED to own assets

The Fed is printing trillions as we speak
