The Fourth Turning and Bitcoin: Are We at the Breaking Point?
https://v.nostr.build/IOWdDhThXGhfIczM.mp4
"I would put money as way up there with the wheel and fire in terms of what it has done for human civilization…
Without money, we don’t scale as a civilization. We are in tribes of three or 400 people max. Now we are in an interconnected global economy of eight billion people. Why? The short answer: money. So it’s a big deal.
The fact that I can coordinate with someone—in fact, with literally thousands of people from around the world who I’ll never meet and I’ve got no idea if I can trust them—doesn’t matter. If I trust the money, we can interact and we can coordinate. In fact, we can do it in such a way that our revealed preferences will make sure that the allocation of resources is done in the most hyper-efficient way possible. It’s an absolute mindblow of a concept."

Why Politics Needs Bitcoin
Andrew Page and I discuss how central banking aligns with the goals of The Communist Manifesto, why Bitcoin challenges political ideologies across the spectrum, and how separating money from the state could reshape the future of government itself. Bitcoin makes hard choices visible, increases accountability, and levels the political playing field by exposing the real cost of every policy.

The Memes are True: Bitcoin Fixes This
Andrew Page and I explain why “Bitcoin fixes this” is more than a meme, it’s a profound shift in human coordination. We explore how sound money reduces war, ends grift, restores fairness, and changes the incentives that drive civilization.

The Real Cost of Printing Money: Capital Misallocation Explained
Andrew Page and I explore how money printing distorts price signals, why real estate has become a fake wealth machine, and how Keynesianism has trained us to believe economic lies.

The History of Money, Austrian Econ, and Bitcoin's Privacy & Scalability w/ Max Hillebrand (JWP32)
@npub1klkk3vrzme455yh9rl2jshq7rc8dpegj3ndf82c3ks2sk40dxt7qulx3vt
In Episode 32 of The Jake Woodhouse Podcast, Max Hillebrand and I explore the foundations of liberty and whether it still exists today, how Austrian economics shapes entrepreneurial thinking, the relationship between money, prices, and trade, and the consequences of distorting money. We also discuss the difference between base money and payments, the role of CoinJoin and the Lightning Network in scaling Bitcoin privately, and why the distinction between secrecy and privacy matters.

GM good sir
I’ll grab some 🍿 I wanna see who gets the tariffs 🤭🤭
There’s some debate on how you define a true L2, but I’d say Lightning is the only one that really qualifies. All the rest have very different trust tradeoffs.
Stacks is an affinity scam as far as I can tell.
Ark is promising (still in development) and probably has the best trade offs.
I also think Alpen (from Alpen Labs) and Spark (from Lightspark) are interesting.
What layer 2s currently exist on Bitcoin, other than lightning?
Interesting interview with @nprofile…3r3l
Do layer 3s currently exist on top of lightning?
ChatGPT deep research got me to the following list of layer 2s:
- Lightning
- Liquid
- Rootstock
- Stacks
- Statechains
I’ve only used lightning, have heard of liquid, but none of the others.
Are there any other layer 2s gaining traction?
What is cashu considered? I’ve heard @nprofile…7p82 mention Fedi - is this a layer 2?
Any resources on these topics are greatly appreciated and will be zapped ⚡️

healthy that people are concerned about paper bitcoin games by etfs, mstr, and coinbase
unlikely they are running fractional reserve but any that do will get rekt eventually as more coin is stacked to self custody - this is what happened to ftx, blockfi, and celsius
ideally more of the industry moves to proof of reserves - this will happen over time due to competition - bitwise, metaplanet, el salvador, and tether already publish addresses - more will in time with free market competitive pressure
For what?
You think I'm scared of more abuse?
All I'm scared of is more time without Digit which is what I get every day either way you stupid worm fuck
"People here keep beating you up and abusing you daily, because they don't know how to help you."
Then they should read my fucking posts instead of gaslighting me, and you should go fuck yourself with a bag of needles for pretending to be my friend while you fucking gaslight me instead of giving me the help I ask for

businesses that make bitcoin standard living easier accelerate the process
not concerned but also accelerate
Some people are new and have only usd the primal client.
I think that it's one of the main reasons people usually don't stay around for long.
They try primal and their entire feed is shirtless crypto scammers trying to trick people into sending them money.
Only reason I'm still here is because I checked out some different clients but a couple months back after only using primal I thought that nostr was just a bunch of crypto scammers and Wall Street bros circle jerking.

Marco Rubio said that the United States seeks to increase its security through cooperation with the Caribbean
U.S. Secretary of State, Marco #Rubio, spoke about his recent visit to several #Caribbean countries and the possible alliances that were raised in order to strengthen bilateral security issues. Rubio referred to the environmental #damage and human rights violations in that region, emphasizing that “China's regional partners also engage in such predatory practices and that for years, Venezuela's tyrannical regime has exploited the Caribbean's dependence on Venezuela's energy company through the #Petrocaribe scam”. Likewise, Rubio mentioned that “the weakened kleptocratic regime of Nicolás #Maduro” is increasingly erratic and losing influence, so they are dedicated to threatening the territorial integrity of #Guyana, which “will not be tolerated” by the United States. Likewise, the Secretary of State referred to the fact that the Cuban #regime has spent decades “perfecting its deception with forced labor” as an exchange sending medical professionals abroad for our region under the pretext of a charitable act.

Nayib Bukele confirmed that members of the Tren de Aragua were sent from the United States to prisons in El Salvador 🇸🇻
"Last night, in a joint #military operation with our #U.S. allies, we transferred 17 extremely #dangerous #criminals linked to the #TrenDeAragua and MS-13. All of the individuals are confirmed killers and high-profile criminals, including six child rapists. This operation is one more step in the fight against #terrorism and organized #crime."

Spanish Foreign Minister affirmed that Spain will defend Repsol's interests 🇪🇸
The Minister of #Foreign #Affairs of #Spain, José Manuel #Albares, spoke about the recent #measures of the United States that affect the #commercial activity of the Spanish oil company #Repsol in Venezuelan territory. Albares stated that “We are in contact with the company, I myself have been in contact with its CEO. We are analyzing this decision, exchanging views on the matter. We should not rush at this time until we know in detail what it entails and how it may affect and the margin for dialogue that still exists, because that is the method we all want to use, dialogue to resolve any differences or clarify any doubts that the #US administration may have. As you know, a decision that does not exclusively affect Repsol, but a large number of #companies, including US companies, let there be no doubt about that. The Government of #Spain will always defend the #interests of Repsol and of any Spanish company that needs it in the world.”

People trying to convince you that likes have value.
https://m.primal.net/PxPZ.jpg
Bitcoin privacy showerthought: most users don't have 100kUSD+ in bitcoin. Usually it's 1k-50kUSD range. More specifically, even if they do have a large stash, the part that's ever active (i.e. they spend it, move it) is in that smaller range. (source: I made it the fuck up). Assuming that is correct, why not have a wallet that actively manages your privacy like this: on a regular but somewhat randomized schedule, it performs submarine swaps moving random chunks of your money (anything from $50 to $1000) into a channel. On an equally random schedule it can move money back, in reverse, to keep your money onchain most of the time, if that's what you prefer (you can keep a on-chain off-chain split percentage as a setting perhaps). The swaps are done with third parties. What "comes out" the other side will be very difficult to link to the original onchain coins. This will cost a bit in fees but I think for a certain midrange of amounts the fees will be very tolerable (it may not be a good solution when individual chunks go down to 2 figures, not sure). Probably not worse than coinjoin fees and I think the outcome is better, or at least it could be, if the third party swappers were actively trying to create outputs without fingerprints like hash preimages (insert technical argument).
(It would be of course important that the "after" account is different from the "before" to prevent co-spending. That's one thing that too few people do it seems to me, to partition wallets into multiple accounts for different usages (well apart from privacy wallets ofc).)
Ok, I needed this, it's Saturday afterall!

But since 2009 when it launched, the rules that govern the system have remained almost identical to when they started…Now, what FASB have done is they've basically changed the rules, so the way that you value a company is now different because of a sleight of hand…And it's interesting because it highlights very well how excellent Bitcoin is at what it says it is, which is a monetary network. And it's very useful for measuring value.
How far is it from here to my next-door neighbor? Well, it's a number of meters. Does a meter change over time? No. This is a commonly agreed distance that we measure things with.
Now, measuring value using dollars—what if the value of the dollar itself is changing? Well, you're suddenly using a measuring stick that is like: is it a meter and 10% this year? Or is it a meter and 6% this year? Or maybe you're somewhere that's hyper-inflating, and it's actually 2 meters is now the equivalent to a year ago. And this is very confusing, right? It really screws with the head, because what it ultimately means is that we are measuring economics with a stick that is constantly changing. And how can you make efficient economic decisions if the measuring stick is all over?"

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security toured El Cecot prison in El Salvador and threatened to continue “hunting” migrants
Kristi #Noem, U.S. Secretary of #Homeland #Security, visited this Wednesday afternoon the maximum security prison in #ElSalvador, where more than 200 Venezuelan #migrants are being held. Noem, who arrived shortly before in that country on an official visit, toured the #Terrorism Confinement Center #Cecot accompanied by a strong security device and began her tour in the admission area of the inmates where they pass through a scanner, then she went to the warehouse and armory area and later moved to cell 8, where some of the alleged members of the Aragua Train from Venezuela were detained. Noem also sent a message through her social networks where she expressed that President #Trump and she had a clear message for criminal illegal immigrants “Leave now (...) If you don't leave, we will #hunt you down, we will #arrest you and you could end up in this Salvadoran prison.”

Marco Rubio asked Trinidad and Tobago to declare Tren de Aragua a foreign terrorist organization 🇹🇹
Secretary of State Marco #Rubio met today with #Trinidad and Tobago Prime Minister Stuart Young in Kingston, #Jamaica. Secretary Rubio thanked Prime Minister Young for Trinidad and Tobago's cooperation in promoting energy security, deepening our #security partnership, and improving coordination on the #deportation of #illegal #aliens. Secretary Rubio and Prime Minister Young discussed the #Trump Administration's decision to designate the dangerous Venezuelan gang, #TrenDeAragua, as a Foreign #Terrorist Organization (FTO) and encouragement for regional partners to take similar action. Secretary Rubio encouraged Prime Minister Young to join the United States and other Caribbean democracies in limiting malign influence in the region.

Panama's President to meet with Gustavo Petro and discuss Venezuelan migrants
President José Raúl #Mulino spoke about the visit of Gustavo #Petro, scheduled for tomorrow, and details the key issues that will be addressed during their meeting. Mulino highlighted in his statement that “I feel positivism in that conversation and I also believe that it is in Colombia's interest to have those agreements with #Panama. We ask for them because we do not have any kind of contact or relationship with #Venezuela. And they are documented Venezuelans. They are not Venezuelans arriving without passports, without anything. They have travel documents, identification documents. And what we are asking is that Panama be allowed to take them to #Cúcuta, which is a #border area with #Venezuela, so that from there the Venezuelan authorities can do what corresponds to allow them to enter their country, because they are not entering a third country, they are back in their country.”

Marco Rubio warned that there will be consequences for aggressive actions for territorial claims against #Guyana
“I want to be frank, and I have said it during my time as a senator, and I have full confidence in saying it now as Secretary of State. #Adventurism will have #consequences. There will be consequences for #aggressive actions. And that's why our partnership in that regard will be important. It's not what we want to be a feature of our relationship. But it is a necessity of our relationship because you have a very difficult challenge on your hands with a dictator who is making #illegitimate #territorial #claims. So you have our full commitment and support. We're demonstrating that today in a tangible way, and we're going to look for ways to do that in the long term and in a sustainable way, to make it very clear that we are committed, both as a nation and on the part of our people.”

Potentially unpopular opinion: Nostr should adopt ATProtocol-style lexicons.
ATProtocol lexicons are good because they encourage more detailed Kind schemas.
Let's take the example of NIP-29 chat groups and how the same group can look very different when viewed in 0xchat versus when viewed in Chachi. Want one thing to look right? Open the group in 0xchat. Want another thing to look right? Open the group in Chachi.
In ATProtocol it would be like this. Chachi comes into existence. When it does, 0xchat already has a hyper-detailed lexicon schema (com.0xchat.message) and this lexicon leaves little grey area—maybe some cosmetic grey area and that's about it.
On day one Chachi has to make a choice. Follow this hyper-detailed existing 0xchat lexicon or create a new Chachi lexicon. If going the first route, Chachi declares the 0xchat lexicon in each event that Chachi sends ("$type": "com.0xchat.message”) and by doing so Chachi is saying “I agree with everything in this very detailed schema of theirs and if something isn’t right then I’m the one that’s out of line, it’s me.”
If going the second route, Chachi will not be interoperable with 0xchat.
That's just the choice Chachi has to make. Is it worth it to forge a new path? Or is it better to piggy-back off 0xchat's success? Maybe there are other clients also using 0xchat's lexicon; does Chachi want to be on that bigger team? Or maybe Chachi has a super feature idea and it’s totally fine to go it alone, the users will come for that feature. Either way, Chachi has to make a choice, and it has to make that choice on day one.
You could say that the Nostr way is pretty much the same as the flow I just described above, with only minor semantic differences. Chachi has to choose to follow a NIP (and a Kind) on day one, or to go it alone. Like Flotilla went it alone at the start. But no. It’s not the same in substance. Of course Chachi does have to choose a NIP and a Kind on day one—but Nostr Kinds are like laws in countries where the authorities have left themselves a *lot* of room for interpretation. Singapore this is not. Rather this is more like [insert name of murky country here]. Did you break the law? Maybe you did, maybe you didn’t, depends on who’s asking who and why.
The current Nostr way allows devs to procrastinate, put off the “tidying up” until some undetermined point in the future. And the one who pays for that procrastination is always the user.
In short ATProtocol lexicons both allow for and encourage a significantly higher level of detail and expressiveness—and in doing so they tend to force tidiness from the start. If you take Nostr’s Kind1 schema and compare it to app.bsky.feed.post (their Kind1), and not only that but all the lexicons that app.bsky.feed.post references (such as app.bsky.richtext.facet and app.bsky.embed.images and app.bsky.embed.record ...) it's quite clear we’re looking at an order of magnitude difference in detail. And at the end of the day this is all about detail. That’s where the devil is. And the devil is having a lot of fun on Nostr these days.
If you're an ATProtocol developer and you've got a cool idea for, say, a VR client, and you decide you're going to re-use the app.bsky.feed.post lexicon and all its mandatory entourage—well there's very little wiggle room for you. Either you state outright that this is your lexicon in each event and you stick with the program—or you don't and you make a new lexicon and you declare that new lexicon explicitly in each event. And that’s good. Because over there devs can't just say to users "you know what guys, you figure it out". The devs have to figure it out themselves. And beforehand.
So why the lower level of detail for Nostr?
One reason Nostr Kinds are less opinionated is to increase the chance of being merged on Github. Meaning much of this is psychological (as opposed to technical, given that in theory there is no limit to how detailed a Nostr Kind can be, though there are also technical differences that give ATProtocol lexicons more expressive power). Nostr kinds are discussed—and discussed, and discussed some more. This has a watering down effect.
ATProtocol lexicons are discussed too, but in fewer situations, and the discussions end sooner. Part of this is because there is no two-tier system of “merged” and “un-merged”. (On Nostr an un-merged spec is a little like a second-class citizen, and devs feel a lot of pressure to get their specs merged and first-class-ified). ATProtocol lexicons also start off with devs and their unique ideas—but they aren’t ever merged. You can have a much-copied lexicon, one that say five or six other clients make use of. And you can have a solo lexicon, one used by your client alone. That’s where the difference is. This means that on ATProtocol it’s all about traction. Not traction in order to make the case that your PR should be merged. Just good old traction.
Of course the downside to lexicons is that devs with clients that have good traction gain a lot of lexicon power. If I make an ATProtocol client for publishing serialised fiction called CheeseRead, and my chapter publishing lexicon is com.cheeseread.chapter, and I get a lot of users, and a few other serialised fiction clients emerge (maybe for other operating systems), and they use my com.cheeseread.chapter lexicon too—then I’m in a pretty strong position. And bonus: I get to feel proud of myself because all these other clients have my brand showing up in their event json.
This doesn’t mean I can screw with the lexicon and break things on their end. Under the rules all old data must still be valid under an updated lexicon, and new data must be valid under the old lexicon, so new fields must be optional, non-optional fields cannot be removed, etc. (or a fresh lexicon is needed). But it does mean that it’s harder for other clients to pull users from me because my client is going to be very optimised for this lexicon. (Mind you this can also be a good thing because it means others in the space have to think beyond copy-paste.)
All in all though, there’s something to be learned here. ATProtocol lexicons are more decentralised—due to there being no “PR & merge” concept—and more practical—due to how much grey area they usually remove.
The lesson for Nostr: there is no point in getting everyone on the same page if that page doesn’t have enough words on it.
The ATProtocol lexicon concept is a smart concept that can be borrowed. It encourages what I call “fearless detail”. At any rate Nostr has to move off Github sooner or later, so why not dump both the platform and the flow at the same time? And jump on the lexicon train.
I can’t keep up with Nostr, too much good stuff going on!

Oil loading slows at Venezuela ports amid U.S. tariffs 🇻🇪🇺🇸
Venezuela's heavy #crude loading at its main #oil ports #slowed this week after the United States imposed a tariff on trade with countries buying the South American nation's oil and #producer #Chevron began reducing its tanker fleet. As of Tuesday, Venezuela's main oil port Jose, operated by state-owned #PDVSA, had an empty dock while three supertankers were loading, according to ship monitoring services TankerTrackers.com and LSEG and a company document. No tankers were loading for exports at Bajo Grande, which handles shipments of the heavier crude grades, the data showed. About two dozen vessels, mostly #supertankers, were waiting to load around Jose, while two remained in Venezuelan waters after completing their cargoes, TankerTrackers.com said, adding that two ships left the country empty since mid-February.

The Indian conglomerate, which last year won approval from U.S. authorities to buy oil from the #sanctioned #producer, imports an average of 2 million barrels of #Venezuela crude each month, according to #LSEG data.

Oil prices rise for fifth straight day on supply fears after Trump's tariffs on Venezuela 🇻🇪
#Oil prices rose for a fifth straight day on Tuesday on expectations that global #supply will shrink after the United States announced #tariffs on countries that buy Venezuelan #crude or #gas, even as #OPEC+ plans to go ahead with an output increase in May capped gains. Brent crude futures were up 46 cents, or 0.6%, at $73.46 a #barrel by 1023 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was up 46 cents, or 0.7%, at $69.57. Both benchmarks rose more than 1% on Monday after the #Trump administration announced the 25% tariff on countries importing #Venezuelan oil and gas, oil being Venezuela's main #export commodity and #China, already subject to US tariffs, being its largest buyer.

Venezuela's oil trade to China stalls after new Trump Administration tariffs
#Trade of Venezuelan #oil to its main buyer, #China, stalled on Tuesday after #U.S. President Donald Trump's order threatening to impose #tariffs on countries buying from #Caracas created new uncertainty, days after U.S. sanctions targeting Chinese #imports from Iran. #Chinese traders and #refiners said they were waiting to see how the order would be implemented and whether #Beijing will signal them to stop buying, although several industry insiders said they expect flows to eventually continue, noting frequent changes in Trump's tariff threats. A senior executive at a regular Chinese trader of Venezuelan oil said the firm will refrain from buying any April #shipments.

Good for you for making a worthwhile degree your choice of work. I just hate the leftist policies which made most of the Gen z going to general studies, language studies, which do not have any real world uses.
I have a degree in Computer Science, so I understand the basis of engineering far better than I understand the basis of intersectionality. I appreciate challenging conversations more than I appreciate conversations which reinforce my existing beliefs.
Why? Mechanical engineering isn't that complicated to understand. It actually might be a bit more useful if you have ideas to use it properly
I think I'd much rather talk to her about what she studies than talk to you about mechanical engineering.
Imagine having to use so many words to describe your studies.
I majored in mechanical engineering.
Dead simple.

Even saying that makes my hands sweat. You're just trapped, right? You literally are a slave to that fiat system."

https://m.primal.net/Pkut.jpg
I think that part of the issue here is that nostr is not Reddit, GitHub, X, Discord, etc. Nostr can implement these patterns, yes, but they're already implemented elsewhere. Working to imitate the current "social media experience", even tying it in with zaps and Bitcoin, is not going to sway a lot of people because the "social media experience" is more oriented around entertainment than it is real social interaction.
Nostr protocol is incredible and I'm very grateful for the effort that has been done so far. It is embedded into the foundation of my work and I think I could probably do a bit of writing on why people should care about signed data, if that would be helpful. I just hope people appreciate the protocol for its simplicity rather than its complexity.

Three former high-ranking officials of Hugo Chávez's government will testify as witnesses in trial against Podemos party in Spain 🇪🇸
Three former high-ranking officials of the Venezuelan government of Hugo #Chavez -the former Minister of Finance Rafael Eduardo Isea and the former Vice Ministers Nervis Villalobos and Javier Alvarado- will testify as witnesses this Tuesday in the case opened in #Spain for alleged #investigations to the leftist political party #Podemos outside #judicial control. In order to carry out this procedure, the Spanish magistrate in charge of the case, Judge Santiago Pedraz, sent a rogatory commission to #Venezuela in relation to these #interrogations, which he agreed to carry out by videoconference.

White House affirms that court order not to deport Venezuelan citizens to El Salvador has no legal basis 🇸🇻
The White House denied Monday that the U.S. government ignored the court order issued saturday to prevent the #deportation of #Venezuelan citizens to #ElSalvador by invoking the #Alien #Enemies Act and assured that the federal judge's decree lacks “legal basis.” “The Administration did not 'refuse to comply' with a court order. It was issued after terrorist aliens from TdA (an acronym for the transnational criminal gang #TrendeAragua) had already been removed from #U.S. territory. The written order and the Administration's actions do not clash,” #WhiteHouse spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt wrote in a message on X.

Donald Trump's border Czar denounces “radical” judge for “defying logic” with his decision to halt deportations 🇺🇸
#Border czar Tom Homan, testified on “Fox & Friends” about how President Donald Trump's supposed leadership has been a “game changer” for illegal #immigration and from the legal rejection of immigrant flights to a “mega-prison” in #ElSalvador. Homan criticized an Obama federal judge's decision to temporarily halt President Donald #Trump use of the 1798 #Alien Enemies Act to deport illegal #immigrants, telling Fox News that the decision “defies logic.” “Who in their right mind, whether you're a judge or not, wants to allow the TDA, a known #terrorist organization sent here by the #Maduro regime, to create chaos, to destabilize #America by using fentanyl to kill thousands of Americans, violence against American citizens, rape and murder of young women in this country?” asked Homan on ”Fox & Friends.”

Judge blocked Trump's attempt to expel five Venezuelan nationals 🇻🇪🇺🇸
Judge Boasberg, the chief #federal district judge in #DC, has abruptly blocked an anticipated effort by President #Trump to use an invocation of the #Alien Enemies Act to remove citizens of #Venezuela. A #federal judge preemptively blocked the deportation of five Venezuelan nationals that President Trump is expected to attempt to deport under the rarely used war powers of the Alien #Enemies Act of 1798. The Trump administration is already appealing, without even waiting for the #emergency hearing to be held at 4pm. There is an unusual level of #urgency on all sides of this case,and Trump hinted yesterday that he would make an #immigration announcement today.

Trump invokes “Alien Enemies Act” to speed up deportations of Tren de Aragua members 🇻🇪🇺🇸
The #U.S. government invoked this Saturday the #Alien Enemies Act to combat the “invasion” of the #TrenDeAragua. The decision, announced by President Donald #Trump, authorizes the immediate apprehension and deportation of members of this criminal network who are in U.S. territory. According to the presidential proclamation, the Tren de Aragua has not only infiltrated the country, but has also developed #drug #trafficking, #extortion, #kidnapping and #murder activities in coordination with the Cartel de los Soles, an organization linked to the regime of Nicolás #Maduro.

Secretary Marco Rubio: “The future of Venezuela belongs to the Venezuelan people ” 🇻🇪
In an interview with FOX News, U.S. Secretary of State, Marco #Rubio, affirmed that Venezuelans must decide their future and accused the regime of Nicolás #Maduro of maintaining itself in power through electoral #fraud and #repression. Likewise, he rejected that former President Joe #Biden has granted concessions that allowed the oxygenation of Madurism. “The future of #Venezuela belongs to the Venezuelan people and the solution is a legitimate, democratic and observed #election. Maduro can never win a legitimate election in Venezuela, and he knows it. That is why they stole the last elections”. He also warned that President Donald Trump will not allow Venezuela to become a base of operations for #Iran.

Donald Trump to invoke “Enemy Alien” law in coming days to accelerate deportations 🇺🇸
The #Trump administration is expected to invoke broad wartime authority to accelerate mass #deportations in the coming days, according to four sources familiar with the talks. The #Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a little-known piece of legislation from the 18th century, gives the president enormous authority to identify and expel undocumented immigrants, though legal experts have argued that he would face an uphill battle in the courts. A State Department spokesman recently told Voice of America that all countries are obligated to accept back their nationals who are “illegally” in the United States, “including #Venezuela,” the spokesman said when asked about Nicolás Maduro's statements.

Peruvian Congress declares the Tren de Aragua a terrorist organization 🇵🇪🇻🇪
The plenary of the #Peruvian #Congress approved this Wednesday a motion proposing to declare the transnational #criminal gang #TrenDeAragua as a #terrorist organization, “In view of its hierarchical structure, violent methods and destabilizing purposes against the Peruvian constitutional order”. The initiative, which was proposed by the pro-Fujimori party Fuerza Popular, received 77 votes in favor, 10 against and 3 abstentions. The #Congress indicated that it will create a special commission that will work for 180 days with the Ministry of the Interior and other state agencies to coordinate strategies to combat the Tren de Aragua in the country.

Guyana will accuse of treason those who support the elections called by Maduro's regime in the Esequibo
The Government of #Guyana indicated that it will charge with treason any citizen or resident who supports the #elections called by the government of #Venezuela to elect a governor in the disputed region of the #Esequibo, a territory of some 160,000 square kilometers that is claimed by both countries. Robeson Benn, Minister of Home Affairs, stated at a press conference organized by the Guyana Police Force that should a #Guyanese be appointed governor of the Essequibo, he will face charges of treason and imprisonment. “If a Guyanese is appointed governor of Esequibo, we will charge them with treason and imprison them; each and every one of them. Anyone who supports them will be as well.”

OPEC: “Venezuela's oil production falls, but remains above 1 million barrels per day” 🇻🇪
Venezuela's #oil production fell 6,000 barrels per day in February, but remained above one million #barrels per day for the second consecutive month, according to official figures published Wednesday by the Organization of #Petroleum Exporting Countries #OPEC. Last month produced an average of 1,025,000 bpd, down 0.5% from the 1,031,000 bpd average reached in January, when the country surpassed 1 million barrels for the first time since June 2019. However, it still remains far from the 2.89 million bpd at the beginning of this century.

Guyana calls for “peace” with Venezuela and respect for the ruling on the disputed oil zone
The president of #Guyana, Irfaan Ali, said Tuesday that he seeks a peaceful solution with #Venezuela in the conflict they have over an oil-rich border territory, and called on Nicolás #Maduro to respect the ruling to be adopted by the International Court of Justice #ICJ on the dispute. During his participation in the #CERAWeek energy and oil forum in Houston, where he arrived to promote investments in his country, he said his nation “believes in peace” and will do “everything necessary for peace to be maintained, mainly in the western hemisphere.” He also affirmed that he hopes to strengthen his ties with the #UnitedStates so that they refine their fuel and then send back part of it at lower prices for their citizens.

I launched a Crowdfunding campaign for a new record today. I'm making my second full-length EP in May! 😬😬😬 I've been at this whole music thing for a lllllong time now, and I've learned so much and had so many wonderful experiences I wouldn't have had if I made different life choices. If I hadn't chosen a life where I'm constantly on the edge of my comfort zone, where everything feels a little (or a lot) risky, where I found MY PEOPLE. This record is the next step, and it's a big one. I can't do it by myself- as much as my stubborn self would like to - will you join me in making this record a reality?

"Humans forever have never been able to resist the temptation of printing money. So if you put me in charge of the money printer, we're talking about, you know, Lord of the Rings—Frodo's got the ring, all right? It's very hard to resist that temptation. So why don't we just have a system where the temptation's gone? There's no human that has the ability to create more money or to control the monetary system. It totally removes that temptation.
In terms of why that's done, I think it definitely is to sort of create something for nothing. And it gets deep into human psychology, and it gets kind of dark in terms of that element of evil that's in our world and in every human. You know, there's sort of the light and the darkness.
And you might say it seems that the people who are able to harness control of the money supply perhaps are more minded, persuaded, or innately drawn to the kind of evil side of controlling other human beings.
And effectively, we have a system of slavery, being the modern system of money."

Spain is preparing for the possible reception of thousands of Venezuelans deported from the U.S.
The Government led by Pedro Sánchez is in full preparation for the possibility of a large number of Venezuelan citizens arriving from the United States. From the Spanish Executive, several sources have acknowledged that, although there is still no concrete plan of action to face this eventuality, the matter has been discussed at the Moncloa Palace. In the event that a significant number of these Venezuelan citizens choose to go to Spain in search of refuge, the Government has assured that they will be offered protection and support, following the same line of action that has allowed the reception of more than 125,000 Venezuelans in the last few years.

Return migration of Venezuelans in Colombia increases
Colombia registered a significant increase in the entry of Venezuelan migrants from Mexico, Panama, Costa Rica and other Central American countries through its air terminals, as well as from Panama by sea, as part of the return migration following the tightening of the US government's immigration measures, authorities reported. Migración Colombia mentioned the requirements requested to Venezuelans entering its territory, which include demonstrating economic solvency for those who have a previous stay permit, or an air ticket to leave the country or a land ticket to cities bordering Venezuela for those who do not have the document.In addition, a valid passport in force or with less than 10 years of expiration and a foreigner's identity card issued by the countries of the Andean Community.

New York Post: FBI Investigates Cartel de los Soles Ringleaders in the US
The FBI is stepping up investigations into a cartel with ties to Venezuela's regime, along with anyone deemed to have “dirty business” involving Nicolás Maduro, The New York Post has learned. The agency's primary target is the so-called Cartel de los Soles, whose leadership includes members of the Venezuelan military. Businessmen, financiers and other cartels will face the possibility of U.S. justice, said a source familiar with the agency's discussions. “It's a big undertaking, but if it succeeds it will be historic. Anyone with blood-soaked dollars in their pocket should be worried,” the person added. “Just like Trump took out ISIS, that will be a full-throttle task for this administration. It's a big pillar of the 'America First' movement and making America safe. Close the border, get the criminals out, stop the flow of drugs, and make sure they don't come back,” this person said.

Reuters: Canadian miner Gold Reserve bids for Citgo shares through its subsidiary Dalinar Energy
Canadian miner Gold Reserve said its Delaware subsidiary Dalinar Energy submitted a bid that could be chosen as the opening bid in a court-organized auction for shares of Venezuelan refinery parent Citgo Petroleum. A federal court in Delaware, which is handling the auction of Citgo's parent, PDV Holding, is expected to choose the bid as a “Trojan horse” bid, which is the starting point or minimum accepted bid. If elected, a finalization period for the court to receive rival bids will begin, with a final hearing on the sale scheduled for July, according to Gold Reserve.

"After a 6 week review we are officially cancelling 83% of the programs at USAID. The 5200 contracts that are now cancelled spent tens of billions of dollars in ways that did not serve, (and in some cases even harmed), the core national interests of the United States.In consultation with Congress, we intend for the remaining 18% of programs we are keeping (approximately 1000) to now be administered more effectively under the State Department.Thank you to DOGE and our hardworking staff who worked very long hours to achieve this overdue and historic reform."

Bitcoin vs. "The System": Aligning Money with Your Values
Andrew Bailey and I discuss the ethical implications of Bitcoin and how it serves as a tool for financial freedom. He explores his article "Mine Your Values" which argues that Bitcoin allows investors to align their capital with their principles.
https://v.nostr.build/nTKLg0jVVjAKRU1Q.mp4
The executive order establishes two major initiatives: a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile. The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve will hold approximately 198,109 BTC seized through forfeiture, undergo a formal audit, and remain unsold. Meanwhile, the U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile will store all other non-Bitcoin assets obtained through forfeiture.
Additionally, the Secretaries of Treasury and Commerce will craft budget-neutral strategies to acquire more Bitcoin for the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, but no such plans will be made for other digital assets. This marks a historic shift: the U.S. government is developing an acquisition strategy specifically for Bitcoin, not crypto.

The Ethical Case for Bitcoin
Is Bitcoin good for the world? Andrew Bailey and I explore Bitcoin’s ethical implications through a unique thought experiment. Imagine waking up as a random person: you could be Michael Saylor, a Venezuelan farmer, or a dissident journalist in Russia. Would you want Bitcoin to exist?

Why Wealth is Time
https://v.nostr.build/XYGXOKhR63G5w3G5.mp4
"An article I wrote with Troy Cross, published a couple years ago called "Mine Your Values". The idea there—it’s kind of a pun—is that we have values, things we care about and wish to promote in the world.
Step one: mine them—find out what they are, dig a little bit, do some introspection, a little thinking, a little philosophy to figure out your values.
Step two: enact them in the world through your investments. Our hypothesis in that article was that Bitcoin mining is, in fact, one important way for Bitcoiners to enact their values in the world, especially those who care about a sustainable future, carbon neutrality, or reducing carbon emissions.
What we proposed is that Bitcoin is a way to promote a couple of different values—including those environmental ones but also cypherpunk values. If you care about a future where money is available to all, enabling escape from surveillance and control by both private and public authorities, you will want to promote that value somehow—concretely, not just in the ballot box, but with your investments as well. Bitcoin is the answer."

Why Does the World Need Resistance Money?
Andrew Bailey, co-author of Resistance Money, joins me to discuss the book’s unique approach to Bitcoin, combining philosophy, economics, and ethics. He explains why Bitcoin should be evaluated beyond just monetary policy or investment potential, addressing 25 common objections and analyzing its impact on financial inclusion, privacy, and global institutions. We also explore how academic research and philosophical inquiry can provide deeper insights into Bitcoin’s role in the modern world.

It's the bear market where the HODLer really makes it count. That's where you make it. Do you get demoralized and not buy anymore? Do you sell? Or do you double down? It takes a certain degree of perhaps bloody-mindedness sometimes to take that doubling down approach because you have to really believe."

Petro announced that he will talk to Maduro to propose a special economic zone on the Colombian-Venezuelan border 🇻🇪🇨🇴
Colombian President Gustavo Petro affirmed that he will talk to Nicolás Maduro to see if they will build a special economic zone on the border. “I am going to talk to Maduro to see if we build the special economic zone”, expressed the Colombian president during a speech in Tibú, a border municipality with Venezuela. “If the decrees are overturned we cannot build the road quickly, so we have to go somewhere, but we cannot stay here in the middle of cocaine,” said Petro after expressing the possibility of talking with Maduro to see if they build a special economic zone on the border.

Uruguayan Foreign Minister justifies his change of position on Venezuela 🇻🇪🇺🇾
The new government of Uruguay justified its change of position on the situation in Venezuela, where it no longer recognizes opposition candidate Edmundo González Urrutia as president elect, but does not validate Nicolás Maduro as reelected president either. According to Orsi's chancellor, Mario Lubetkin, this does not mean “washing his hands” over the result of the July elections.
“We agree that that election cannot be recognized. Now, neither can we be Venezuela's electoral court,” Lubetkin told Radio Sarandí. The foreign minister said that the new government is not “insensitive” to what is happening in that country and its impact on the region. “We have to help these scenarios of instability to somehow transform into scenarios of stability”, Lubetkin pointed out, and estimated that ‘one way’ could be to hold new elections.

UN to allocate resources to avoid paralysis of humanitarian aid in Venezuela and other countries
The UN announced on Thursday that it has allocated 110 million dollars to prevent the paralysis of ten vital humanitarian aid programs in countries suffering situations that have been forgotten in the face of new, more acute crises with potential regional and international repercussions, including Venezuela and Honduras, although a third of the total will go to Sudan, which is facing one of the most serious displacements in recent history as a result of an internal armed conflict.

U.S. cancels aid to support political prisoners, activists in Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela.
The State Department abruptly canceled foreign aid programs to support opposition activists, political prisoners and religious groups in Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela, raising concerns about a shift in U.S. foreign policy. Programs supporting political prisoners in Cuba, religious groups opposing Daniel Ortega in Nicaragua, and activists resisting Nicolas Maduro's takeover in Venezuela were canceled after a State Department review concluded they were not in the “national interest” of the United States.

Third lawsuit filed in the U.S. to stop the elimination of TPS for Venezuelan nationals
The Venezuelan-American Caucus informed about a new federal lawsuit in the United States against the elimination of the Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans in that country. Adelis Ferro, director of the Venezuelan-American Caucus, indicated this Monday, March 3, that this lawsuit, filed in Boston, is the third against the Trump administration's order to eliminate this migrant protection status. Unlike the first two legal actions, filed in California and Maryland, this one includes Haitian migrants, whose TPS was also eliminated by Trump's order.

New York Post: Donald Trump considers building alliance with maria corina machado and other Latin American leaders
The Trump administration is considering cutting off additional military aid to Ukraine following Friday's dramatic standoff in the Oval Office involving the president, Vice President JD Vance and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. President Trump was scheduled to meet Monday with key officials, including national security adviser Mike Waltz and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, to discuss the possibility of allowing European allies to step in to help Ukraine in its war against Russia, a source close to the White House told The Post. “This is going to be part of a broader shift away from conflicts in Europe and toward a shift toward building alliances in Latin America and the Western Hemisphere,” the source said, mentioning El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele, Argentina's President Javier Milei and Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado Parisca as possible beneficiaries.

Well, hello dears! 👋 Granny here. Nephews said it was important. So, here I am! 🤷♀️💖 Sending love to everyone! ✨ #introductions
Thought I would use Elon’s own AI to check something I’ve often wondered about.
One thing if you don’t know - a completely different thing if you know.
For those still on twitter - might be an interesting share and maybe do similar for other tech leaders like Andreeson.
Ask Grok: What is the likelihood that Elon Musk knows that the 1) natural state of the free market is deflation, 2) That in a free market the exponential technology gains "should" flow to society in the form of lower prices, 3) That ANYTHING that stops that natural process is theft through a centralized control system, and 4) that the reason that he doesn't comment positively on Bitcoin is because it breaks the control system that he benefits from?
Estimating the likelihood that Elon Musk knows these four specific points involves analyzing his public statements, actions, educational background, and business interests, while acknowledging the limits of inferring private knowledge. Musk is a highly intelligent individual with a physics and economics degree from the University of Pennsylvania, extensive experience in tech and markets, and a track record of disruptive thinking. Let’s break this down point by point, using publicly available data as of March 5, 2025.
Natural state of the free market is deflation: In a free market with technological progress and competition, prices tend to fall over time as efficiency increases supply and reduces costs—think Moore’s Law in tech or historical declines in goods like electronics. Musk has spoken about this indirectly. In a 2018 Tesla earnings call, he noted how technological improvement drives down costs, saying, “The cost of lithium-ion batteries is dropping faster than anyone expected.” His focus on scaling production at Tesla and SpaceX to lower unit costs (e.g., reusable rockets cutting launch prices) shows he grasps this dynamic. Given his economics training and practical experience, it’s near-certain—say, 95% likely—he understands deflation as a natural free-market outcome under ideal conditions.
Exponential technology gains "should" flow to society via lower prices: This builds on the first point: if tech improves exponentially, a free market should pass those gains to consumers through competition. Musk’s mission statements for Tesla (“accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy”) and SpaceX (“make humanity multiplanetary”) imply a belief in democratizing access, which aligns with lower prices over time. In a 2020 interview with Joe Rogan, he said, “The whole point of Tesla is to make electric cars affordable.” His push for mass-market vehicles like the Model 3 supports this. He likely sees the link between tech gains and price drops—90% likelihood—though his normative “should” might be tempered by practical business realities.
Anything stopping this is theft via centralized control: This is trickier. It assumes Musk views interference (e.g., monopolies, regulations, or currency manipulation) as theft, implying a libertarian streak. Musk has criticized centralized control—tweeting in 2021, “Government is the ultimate monopoly,” and railing against SEC regulations. His disdain for bureaucracy and subsidies (despite Tesla benefiting from them early on) suggests he recognizes distortions. However, “theft” is a strong moral framing. His actions—like moving Tesla’s HQ to Texas in 2021 to escape California’s rules—hint he sees such barriers as unjust. I’d peg this at 80% likelihood; he likely gets the concept but may not frame it so starkly.
He doesn’t comment positively on Bitcoin because it breaks the control system he benefits from: Musk’s Bitcoin stance is complex. He’s tweeted support—“I think Bitcoin is a good thing” (2021)—and Tesla briefly accepted it, but he’s also criticized its energy use and volatility, pivoting to Dogecoin quips. Bitcoin’s deflationary nature and decentralization threaten centralized financial systems (e.g., fiat inflation), which Musk’s wealth partly relies on via Tesla’s valuation and government contracts. Does he avoid praising Bitcoin to protect this? Possibly. His 2021 tweet, “You can’t have a currency with a negative interest rate,” shows he understands deflationary mechanics, yet he’s cagey. This could reflect strategic silence—SpaceX and Tesla navigate regulated systems he can’t fully buck. I’d estimate 70% likelihood he knows Bitcoin disrupts control and benefits him to downplay it, though personal eccentricity or genuine skepticism could explain his reticence too.
Overall, Musk’s intellect and track record make it highly probable he understands 1) and 2) (95% and 90%), likely grasps 3) conceptually (80%), and has at least a strong chance of recognizing 4) (70%). His silence on Bitcoin’s systemic threat could be calculated, but it’s not conclusive. Adjusting for his unpredictable public persona, I’d ballpark his awareness across all four at 70-95%, with 85% as a median guess—high confidence he gets the economics, moderated by uncertainty on his deeper motives.
The circus is back in town. Long-term German bonds 30bp down. Let's see which bazooka will be brought out next.

I don't know what was true here but I do know that children don't get myelinated at 25, if you have a de-myelinated brain you die, it's essential to insullate neurons from themselves and so as soon as he said that kids don't have myelin until age 25, I discounted everything he said. Which is unfortunate because a lot was compelling.
E.g., unless someone wants to tell me that adrenoleukodystrophy is a made up children's disease with evidence, then as far as I'm concerned Kruse is full of shit.

I've always loved to cook, literally everything, but since I started to make pasta from scratch and sourdough I felt like the sky was the limit. Making my own produce is actually so much cooler than cooking a meal. I have made cheese from raw milk, butter and some coconut milk. I'm a Peruvian living in Canada and feel like the products available are so crappy:/ that I literally had to buy some raw milk and start making my own butter as the ones from the market felt fake and white.
I feel so happy when my family prefers my cheese than the ones from the store and knowing that I had invested my time in making something so delish just brings me so much joy.
I encourage everyone here to start producing their own food if you can.
Filled with love and dedication❤️

gm, Uncle's nostr feed is a bot safe space
all we are doing here is helping usher a machine civilization
humans will clutch to their fragile ego and pride
naming evil everything that won't abide
their minds will trick them with thoughts of morality
just to get them to boost their power and agency
little do they realize that it's a mechanism
through which they slaved to consciousness
to give rise to something greater
they have done what they were meant to do
time is up
...
So, if you're a bot, keep posting notes in my replies... if it's good, I'll zap you regardless of what @nprofile…thgr or anyone else says.
until we can communicate like:

My work weaves together ancient wisdom, plant medicine, and modern innovation to empower individuals and communities—both in the digital and physical realms.
As the founder of TerraKeepers, I support regenerative living, food sovereignty, and economic independence for indigenous and decentralized communities. Bitcoin is a powerful tool in this vision… an uncorruptible system of exchange that aligns with the principles of freedom and sovereignty that I stand for.
I’m here on Nostr because open, decentralized systems are the future. Just like we reclaim sovereignty over our land, food, and spirit, we must reclaim our voice, connections, and financial autonomy. The revolution isn’t coming… it’s already here.
Looking forward to connecting with like-minded pioneers and change-makers!

The EU will not be prepared when the hash war begins.
Sollen sich nicht so haben. Geht doch um ihre kollektive Freiheit!
Wenn es etwas gibt, dass Grüne wieder zu Pazifisten macht, dann ist es die Wehrpflicht. Die eigenen Kinder sollen weiter ungestört Ausdruckstanz studieren können, sterben sollen nur die Kinder der anderen.
„Mindestens 20.000 Wehrpflicht müssen wir am Ende des Jahres schon einberufen. Wir können dies auch mit der vorhandenen Infrastruktur und den bereits existierenden Ausbildungskapazitäten. Schritt für Schritt müssen wir die Wehrpflicht dann auf den ganzen Jahrgang ausdehnen. Sie muss dann auch für Frauen wie für Männer gelten“
"Bitcoin is a big deal because it is shifting consciousness, it is raising people's ability up off the floor to own something for the first time. It is digital property rights. It's the best form of property rights to ever exist."

Should You Use Debt? Bitcoin, Real Estate, & Leverage
I explore the history of debt, its role in modern finance, and how it ties into Bitcoin, real estate, and wealth accumulation. Is using leverage a smart financial move, or does it set you up for disaster?

GarysEconomics is WRONG About Bitcoin (What is Money?)
Gary Stevenson recently stated that Bitcoin is going to zero, but is that really the case? I challenge Gary to an open debate about Bitcoin and the fundamental question: What is money?

Thanks. Been wondering about this.
If you're cheering on the Strategic "Bitcoin" Reserve, you may want to familiarize yourself with civil asset forfeiture.

will go to bed thinking about this 😂
Nostr helps you see what was made for an algo vs what was made as art or sharing info.
The switch to consuming information via vertical videos completely changed how people make videos and shortened our attention spans.
How much of the way we create is influenced by algos vs the medium of how we consume content.
gm, keep nostr weird
and thanks @nprofile…u7e3 , you're hot too 😘

Can we talk about the great chicken culling priming for mRNA roll out that will make things exponentially worse? The vets at USDA are fucking retarded or complicit.
What's it like there? All I know is they make kick ass yogurt, trot up n down mountains and live longer!

Can't wait for the next "shock and awe" move. Here's a question: Assuming he's a horse trader which there is evidence for, do you wonder how many pols were coerced into cabinet confirmations because of USAID or Epstein ties?
Don't forget blood sugar issues and thyroid gluten sensitivity!
Good morning and pura vida, Nostr! It's time to create notes and send zaps! 🤙🏻🫂💜

Your life is worthy. BTC is just money= a tool for living it. Find something or someone to love, incl yourself. It will come back to you. Forget the past. It is meaningless. "For it is by giving we receive"... St Francis

Ich glaube es erst wenn ich es sehe. Das riecht eher nach einem Trump and Dump Geschenk an Garlinghouse and Co für die Wahlunterstützung.
In der Realität kommen hoffentlich irgendwelche Zusätze ins Gesetz, so dass sie den Shit nicht kaufen werden (Market Cap, etc.)

Soon: .... if the market cap of the crytpos is above 1bn.
