It was when I realized that I was selling my time, and if I didn't fix that I was going to have to sell my time for the rest of my life, I decided that I would rather sit naked on a rock outside because I understood that no money in the world was going to make me happy. I was already happy.
It was when I realized that the credit system offers a very particular game that we call finance that anyone with a sound mind can play and win, that I decided to play and win.
It was when I realized that I was the full owner of my time that I needed to study. I chose to study #Bitcoin and Austrian economics because someone told me to. I didn't stop reading until to this day, and I will keep reading.
It was when I realized that studying Bitcoin and Austrian economics provided the only realistic solutions to all our problems that I understood that I should tell others to do the same.

*$300k/BTC

2024-10-22 20:03:18

Just realise how much #Bitcoin #MSTR can buy at high price levels without changing their average much. They'll be able to push the price up if supply gets low enough.
For example MSTR could buy 100k #BTC @ $200k/BTC and their average would be $119k per coin.
By the time Bitcoin hits $400k, MSTR will be about $81B in profit on a $9B investment. How much Bitcoin could MSTR buy by leveraging that $81B?
Safe to say MSTR's plan is to buy the top forever, like @npub12a6…kd9t said he would.

Nothing about sustainability policy is actually sustainable, supporting the sustainability narrative is suppressing our natural response to disaster because the very outcome is disaster. For decades policymakers have centrally planned for unintended consequences and overreliance on subsidies, never generating anything that actually works. The solution is to build harmonic incentive structures that are profitable for all those involved. #Bitcoin mining is the tool to achieve this.

You can perceive the now directly, but you can't perceive time directly. Your perception of memory allows you to indirectly perceive time. These perceptions tend to be in conflict while thinking. Letting go of thought is required to perceive the now. Your identity is a thought.

2024-10-15 08:40:23

Stop using your mind to create identity. Keep it still. Be less certain. Give the mind up, to the self.

What we perceive as matter are localized manifestations of an electromagnetic field, where energy is concentrated. The frequency of which determines the nature of the concentration that we then call particles, which actually are bound states by one active force in multiple dimensions. The harmonic nature of the concentration determines the expression it has as an expression of its manifestation, weight, temperature, charge, spin, entropy, density.

To have courage is actually to embrace uncertainty while understanding the danger. Fear is a mental construct, as Seneca notes, and danger is verifiable. Twain was wrong to ascribe function to fear, because fear is irrational, fear is founded in instinct and misunderstanding.

Adversity from a condition is emergent just as everything resulting from a condition is emergent. We're here to change the condition so that the adversity becomes more efficient. Many different conditions go hand in hand. Consciousness is the only condition that transitions toward higher efficiency and toward higher consciousness. Be your own guide, others will do what is emergent in them.

If both are true, continue. If any is false, start over.

If there is no uniform motivation to work together in harmony, true cooperation will not manifest. Cheating or gaming is allowed by a system that is based on ideology and can only be discouraged by ideology.
For the first time in history, mankind has found a protocol of fair exchange that allows harmonic cooperation based on an incentive structure that aligns motivation.
No ideology is needed here, because it is purely epistemic, this is the nature of a sufficiently secure and decentralized protocol.
The real cost of non cooperation will become clear as peaceful exchange of value will show to be more economical.

Financial repression is the erosion of the real value of a loan over time. It can only happen when the currency can be debased resulting in inflation.
#Bitcoin will invert this concept. The real value of a bitcoin denominated loan will go up over time.

2024-09-15 16:07:41

The sustainability narrative will shift because of the changing of incentives to a harmonic model. This model is more competitive, so to participate in this revolution is the only way to survive. This harmonic model is also easier to understand, because it doesn't require belief.
