Bitcoin has always been a narrative revolution disguised as code. White paper, cypherpunk lore, pizza‑day legends - every block is a paragraph in the world’s most relentless epic. But code alone rarely converts the skeptic; it’s the camp‑fire myth that slips past the prefrontal cortex and shakes hands with the limbic system. People don’t adopt protocols first - they fall in love with protagonists.
Early adopters heard the white‑paper hymn, but most folks need characters first: a pizza‑day dreamer; a mother in a small country, crushed by the cost of remittance; a Warsaw street vendor swapping złoty for sats. When their arcs land, the brain releases a neurochemical OP_RETURN which says, “I belong in this plot.” That’s the sly roundabout orange pill: conviction smuggled inside catharsis.
That’s why, from 22–25 May in Warsaw’s Kinoteka, the Bitcoin Film Fest is loading its reels with rebellion. Each documentary, drama, and animated rabbit‑hole is a stealth wallet, zipping conviction straight into the feels of anyone still clasped within the cold claw of fiat. You come for the plot, you leave checking block heights.

2025-05-16 20:52:42Streams are the key to nostr
Loading events from a nostr relay is probably the most inconsistent way of loading data I've had to work with, and that's only loading from a single relay. the problem gets exponentially more complicated once you try to load events from multiple relays
Unlike HTTP nostr does not have a simple flow with timeouts built in. events are sent back one at a time and can fail at any point or have massive (10s) gaps between them
The key is to use streams. something that starts, emits any number of results, then maybe errors or completes. luckily it just so happens that JavaScript / TypeScript has a great observable stream library called RxJS
What is an observable
An
Observable
in RxJS is stream a of data that are initialized lazily, which means the stream is inactive and not running until something subscribes to it```ts let stream = new Observable((observer) => { observer.next(1) observer.next(2) observer.next(3) observer.complete() })
// The stream method isn't run until its subscribed to stream.subscribe(v => console.log(v)) ```
This is super powerful and perfect for nostr because it means we don't need to manage the life-cycle of the stream. it will run when something subscribes to it and stop when unsubscribed.
Its helpful to think of this as "pulling" data. once we have created an observable we can request the data from it at any point in the future.
Pulling data from relays
We can use the lazy nature of observables to only start fetching events from a nostr relay when we need them
For example we can create an observable that will load kind 1 events from the damus relay and stream them back as they are returned from the relay
```typescript let req = new Observable((observer) => { // Create a new websocket connection when the observable is start let ws = new WebSocket('wss://relay.damus.io')
ws.onopen = () => { // Start a REQ ws.send(JSON.stringify(['REQ', 'test', {kinds: [1], limit: 20}])) }
ws.onmessage = (event) => { let message = JSON.parse(event.data) // Get the event from the message and pass it along to the subscribers if(message[0] === 'EVENT') observer.next(message[1]) }
// Cleanup subscription return () => { ws.send(JSON.stringify(['CLOSE', 'test'])) ws.close() } }) ```
But creating the observable wont do anything. we need to subscribe to it to get any events.
ts let sub = req.subscribe(event => { console.log('we got an event' event) })
Cool now we are pulling events from a relay. once we are done we can stop listening to it by unsubscribing from it
ts sub.unsubscribe()
This will call the cleanup method on the observable, which in turn closes the connection to the relay.
Hopefully you can see how this work, we don't have any
open
,connect
, ordisconnect
methods. we simply subscribe to a stream of events and it handles all the messy logic of connecting to a relayComposing and chaining observables
I've shown you how we can create a simple stream of events from a relay, but what if we want to pull from two relays?
Easy, lets make the previous example into a function that takes a relay URL
```ts function getNoteFromRelay(relay: string){ return new Observable((observer) => { let ws = new WebSocket(relay)
// ...rest of the observable...
}) } ```
Then we can "merge" two of these observables into a single observable using the
merge
method from RxJSThe
merge
method will create a single observable that subscribes to both upstream observables and sends all the events back. Think of it as pulling events from both relays at once```ts import { merge } from 'rxjs'
const notes = merge( getNoteFromRelay('wss://relay.damus.io'), getNoteFromRelay('wss://nos.lol') )
// Subscribe to the observable to start getting data from it const sub = notes.subscribe(event => { console.log(event) })
// later unsubscribe setTimeout(() => { sub.unsubscribe() }, 10_000) ```
But now we have a problem, because we are pulling events from two relays we are getting duplicate events. to solve this we can use the
.pipe
method and thedistinct
operator from RxJS to modify our single observable to only return one version of each eventThe
.pipe
method will create a chain of observables that will each subscribe to the previous one and modify the returned values in some wayThe
distinct
operator takes a method that returns a unique identifier and filters out any duplicate values```ts import { merge, distinct } from 'rxjs'
const notes = merge( getNoteFromRelay('wss://relay.damus.io'), getNoteFromRelay('wss://nos.lol') ).pipe( // filter out events we have seen before based on the event id distinct(event => event.id) ) ```
Now we have an observable that when subscribed to will connect to two relays and return a stream of events without duplicates...
As you can see things can start getting complicated fast. but its also very powerful because we aren't managing any life-cycle code, we just subscribe and unsubscribe from an observable
Taking it to an extreme
Hopefully at this point you can see how powerful this is, we can think of almost any data loading pattern as a series of observables that pull data from upstream observables and stream it back to the original subscriber.
Here is a quick sketch of what it could look like to load user profiles. each node is an observable that "pulls" data from its child node ending with the "connect websocket" or "load from database" nodes which do the work of making a relay connection
Conclusion
All this might seem pretty simple and straight forward, but its been a long six month of learning for me. I've had to completely rethink how data and nostr events should be handled in a client and how to avoid screwing up and shooting myself in the foot with these powerful tools.
If you want to give RxJS a try I would encourage you to checkout the nostr sdk I've been building called applesauce
Its uses RxJS for pretty much everything and has the simplest and most flexible relay connection API I've seen so far (mainly no life-cycle management)

@ 609f186c:0aa4e8af
2025-05-16 20:57:43Google says that Android 16 is slated to feature an optional high security mode. Cool.
Advanced Protection has a bunch of requested features that address the kinds of threats we worry about.
It's the kind of 'turn this one thing on if you face elevated risk' that we've been asking for from Google.
And likely reflects some learning after Google watched Apple 's Lockdown Mode play out. I see a lot of value in this..
Here are some features I'm excited to see play out:
The Intrusion Logging feature is interesting & is going to impose substantial cost on attackers trying to hide evidence of exploitation. Logs get e2ee encrypted into the cloud. This one is spicy.
The Offline Lock, Inactivity Reboot & USB protection will frustrate non-consensual attempts to physically grab device data.
Memory Tagging Extension is going to make a lot of attack & exploitation categories harder.
2G Network Protection & disabling Auto-connect to insecure networks are going to address categories of threat from things like IMSI catchers & hostile WiFi.
I'm curious about some other features such as:
Spam & Scam detection: Google messages feature that suggests message content awareness and some kind of scanning.
Scam detection for Phone by Google is interesting & coming later. The way it is described suggests phone conversation awareness. This also addresses a different category of threat than the stuff above. I can see it addressing a whole category of bad things that regular users (& high risk ones too!) face. Will be curious how privacy is addressed or if this done purely locally. Getting messy: Friction points? I see Google thinking these through, but I'm going to add a potential concern: what will users do when they encounter friction? Will they turn this off & forget to re-enable? We've seen users turn off iOS Lockdown Mode when they run into friction for specific websites or, say, legacy WiFi. They then forget to turn it back on. And stay vulnerable.
Bottom line: users disabling Apple's Lockdown Mode for a temporary thing & leaving it off because they forget to turn it on happens a lot. This is a serious % of users in my experience...
And should be factored into design decisions for similar modes. I feel like a good balance is a 'snooze button' or equivalent so that users can disable all/some features for a brief few minute period to do something they need to do, and then auto re-enable.
Winding up:
I'm excited to see how Android Advanced Protection plays with high risk users' experiences. I'm also super curious whether the spam/scam detection features may also be helpful to more vulnerable users (think: aging seniors)...
Niche but important:
Some users, esp. those that migrated to security & privacy-focused Android distros because of because of the absence of such a feature are clear candidates for it... But they may also voice privacy concerns around some of the screening features. Clear communication from the Google Security / Android team will be key here.

2025-05-16 18:40:18Die zwei mächtigsten Krieger sind Geduld und Zeit. \ Leo Tolstoi
Zum Wohle unserer Gesundheit, unserer Leistungsfähigkeit und letztlich unseres Glücks ist es wichtig, die eigene Energie bewusst zu pflegen. Das gilt umso mehr für an gesellschaftlichen Themen interessierte, selbstbewusste und kritisch denkende Menschen. Denn für deren Wahrnehmung und Wohlbefinden waren und sind die rasanten, krisen- und propagandagefüllten letzten Jahre in Absurdistan eine harte Probe.
Nur wer regelmäßig Kraft tankt und Wege findet, mit den Herausforderungen umzugehen, kann eine solche Tortur überstehen, emotionale Erschöpfung vermeiden und trotz allem zufrieden sein. Dazu müssen wir erkunden, was uns Energie gibt und was sie uns raubt. Durch Selbstreflexion und Achtsamkeit finden wir sicher Dinge, die uns erfreuen und inspirieren, und andere, die uns eher stressen und belasten.
Die eigene Energie ist eng mit unserer körperlichen und mentalen Gesundheit verbunden. Methoden zur Förderung der körperlichen Gesundheit sind gut bekannt: eine ausgewogene Ernährung, regelmäßige Bewegung sowie ausreichend Schlaf und Erholung. Bei der nicht minder wichtigen emotionalen Balance wird es schon etwas komplizierter. Stress abzubauen, die eigenen Grenzen zu kennen oder solche zum Schutz zu setzen sowie die Konzentration auf Positives und Sinnvolles wären Ansätze.
Der emotionale ist auch der Bereich, über den «Energie-Räuber» bevorzugt attackieren. Das sind zum Beispiel Dinge wie Überforderung, Perfektionismus oder mangelhafte Kommunikation. Social Media gehören ganz sicher auch dazu. Sie stehlen uns nicht nur Zeit, sondern sind höchst manipulativ und erhöhen laut einer aktuellen Studie das Risiko für psychische Probleme wie Angstzustände und Depressionen.
Geben wir negativen oder gar bösen Menschen keine Macht über uns. Das Dauerfeuer der letzten Jahre mit Krisen, Konflikten und Gefahren sollte man zwar kennen, darf sich aber davon nicht runterziehen lassen. Das Ziel derartiger konzertierter Aktionen ist vor allem, unsere innere Stabilität zu zerstören, denn dann sind wir leichter zu steuern. Aber Geduld: Selbst vermeintliche «Sonnenköniginnen» wie EU-Kommissionspräsidentin von der Leyen fallen, wenn die Zeit reif ist.
Es ist wichtig, dass wir unsere ganz eigenen Bedürfnisse und Werte erkennen. Unsere Energiequellen müssen wir identifizieren und aktiv nutzen. Dazu gehören soziale Kontakte genauso wie zum Beispiel Hobbys und Leidenschaften. Umgeben wir uns mit Sinnhaftigkeit und lassen wir uns nicht die Energie rauben!
Mein Wahlspruch ist schon lange: «Was die Menschen wirklich bewegt, ist die Kultur.» Jetzt im Frühjahr beginnt hier in Andalusien die Zeit der «Ferias», jener traditionellen Volksfeste, die vor Lebensfreude sprudeln. Konzentrieren wir uns auf die schönen Dinge und auf unsere eigenen Talente – soziale Verbundenheit wird helfen, unsere innere Kraft zu stärken und zu bewahren.

2025-05-16 18:06:46Bitcoin has always been rooted in freedom and resistance to authority. I get that many of you are conflicted about the US Government stacking but by design we cannot stop anyone from using bitcoin. Many have asked me for my thoughts on the matter, so let’s rip it.
Concern
One of the most glaring issues with the strategic bitcoin reserve is its foundation, built on stolen bitcoin. For those of us who value private property this is an obvious betrayal of our core principles. Rather than proof of work, the bitcoin that seeds this reserve has been taken by force. The US Government should return the bitcoin stolen from Bitfinex and the Silk Road.
Using stolen bitcoin for the reserve creates a perverse incentive. If governments see bitcoin as a valuable asset, they will ramp up efforts to confiscate more bitcoin. The precedent is a major concern, and I stand strongly against it, but it should be also noted that governments were already seizing coin before the reserve so this is not really a change in policy.
Ideally all seized bitcoin should be burned, by law. This would align incentives properly and make it less likely for the government to actively increase coin seizures. Due to the truly scarce properties of bitcoin, all burned bitcoin helps existing holders through increased purchasing power regardless. This change would be unlikely but those of us in policy circles should push for it regardless. It would be best case scenario for American bitcoiners and would create a strong foundation for the next century of American leadership.
Optimism
The entire point of bitcoin is that we can spend or save it without permission. That said, it is a massive benefit to not have one of the strongest governments in human history actively trying to ruin our lives.
Since the beginning, bitcoiners have faced horrible regulatory trends. KYC, surveillance, and legal cases have made using bitcoin and building bitcoin businesses incredibly difficult. It is incredibly important to note that over the past year that trend has reversed for the first time in a decade. A strategic bitcoin reserve is a key driver of this shift. By holding bitcoin, the strongest government in the world has signaled that it is not just a fringe technology but rather truly valuable, legitimate, and worth stacking.
This alignment of incentives changes everything. The US Government stacking proves bitcoin’s worth. The resulting purchasing power appreciation helps all of us who are holding coin and as bitcoin succeeds our government receives direct benefit. A beautiful positive feedback loop.
Realism
We are trending in the right direction. A strategic bitcoin reserve is a sign that the state sees bitcoin as an asset worth embracing rather than destroying. That said, there is a lot of work left to be done. We cannot be lulled into complacency, the time to push forward is now, and we cannot take our foot off the gas. We have a seat at the table for the first time ever. Let's make it worth it.
We must protect the right to free usage of bitcoin and other digital technologies. Freedom in the digital age must be taken and defended, through both technical and political avenues. Multiple privacy focused developers are facing long jail sentences for building tools that protect our freedom. These cases are not just legal battles. They are attacks on the soul of bitcoin. We need to rally behind them, fight for their freedom, and ensure the ethos of bitcoin survives this new era of government interest. The strategic reserve is a step in the right direction, but it is up to us to hold the line and shape the future.

2025-05-16 17:59:23Recently we have seen a wave of high profile X accounts hacked. These attacks have exposed the fragility of the status quo security model used by modern social media platforms like X. Many users have asked if nostr fixes this, so lets dive in. How do these types of attacks translate into the world of nostr apps? For clarity, I will use X’s security model as representative of most big tech social platforms and compare it to nostr.
The Status Quo
On X, you never have full control of your account. Ultimately to use it requires permission from the company. They can suspend your account or limit your distribution. Theoretically they can even post from your account at will. An X account is tied to an email and password. Users can also opt into two factor authentication, which adds an extra layer of protection, a login code generated by an app. In theory, this setup works well, but it places a heavy burden on users. You need to create a strong, unique password and safeguard it. You also need to ensure your email account and phone number remain secure, as attackers can exploit these to reset your credentials and take over your account. Even if you do everything responsibly, there is another weak link in X infrastructure itself. The platform’s infrastructure allows accounts to be reset through its backend. This could happen maliciously by an employee or through an external attacker who compromises X’s backend. When an account is compromised, the legitimate user often gets locked out, unable to post or regain control without contacting X’s support team. That process can be slow, frustrating, and sometimes fruitless if support denies the request or cannot verify your identity. Often times support will require users to provide identification info in order to regain access, which represents a privacy risk. The centralized nature of X means you are ultimately at the mercy of the company’s systems and staff.
Nostr Requires Responsibility
Nostr flips this model radically. Users do not need permission from a company to access their account, they can generate as many accounts as they want, and cannot be easily censored. The key tradeoff here is that users have to take complete responsibility for their security. Instead of relying on a username, password, and corporate servers, nostr uses a private key as the sole credential for your account. Users generate this key and it is their responsibility to keep it safe. As long as you have your key, you can post. If someone else gets it, they can post too. It is that simple. This design has strong implications. Unlike X, there is no backend reset option. If your key is compromised or lost, there is no customer support to call. In a compromise scenario, both you and the attacker can post from the account simultaneously. Neither can lock the other out, since nostr relays simply accept whatever is signed with a valid key.
The benefit? No reliance on proprietary corporate infrastructure.. The negative? Security rests entirely on how well you protect your key.
Future Nostr Security Improvements
For many users, nostr’s standard security model, storing a private key on a phone with an encrypted cloud backup, will likely be sufficient. It is simple and reasonably secure. That said, nostr’s strength lies in its flexibility as an open protocol. Users will be able to choose between a range of security models, balancing convenience and protection based on need.
One promising option is a web of trust model for key rotation. Imagine pre-selecting a group of trusted friends. If your account is compromised, these people could collectively sign an event announcing the compromise to the network and designate a new key as your legitimate one. Apps could handle this process seamlessly in the background, notifying followers of the switch without much user interaction. This could become a popular choice for average users, but it is not without tradeoffs. It requires trust in your chosen web of trust, which might not suit power users or large organizations. It also has the issue that some apps may not recognize the key rotation properly and followers might get confused about which account is “real.”
For those needing higher security, there is the option of multisig using FROST (Flexible Round-Optimized Schnorr Threshold). In this setup, multiple keys must sign off on every action, including posting and updating a profile. A hacker with just one key could not do anything. This is likely overkill for most users due to complexity and inconvenience, but it could be a game changer for large organizations, companies, and governments. Imagine the White House nostr account requiring signatures from multiple people before a post goes live, that would be much more secure than the status quo big tech model.
Another option are hardware signers, similar to bitcoin hardware wallets. Private keys are kept on secure, offline devices, separate from the internet connected phone or computer you use to broadcast events. This drastically reduces the risk of remote hacks, as private keys never touches the internet. It can be used in combination with multisig setups for extra protection. This setup is much less convenient and probably overkill for most but could be ideal for governments, companies, or other high profile accounts.
Nostr’s security model is not perfect but is robust and versatile. Ultimately users are in control and security is their responsibility. Apps will give users multiple options to choose from and users will choose what best fits their need.

2025-05-16 19:57:46Let's start with some important foundational thinking - based on natural law. Money should be separate from the State - if not history shows that governments and human greed will always take over and manipulate the system in their favour and the expense of their populations. For extensive references, read The Sovereign Individual and The Creature from Jeckyll Island.

The American Forefathers knew this when the wrote the American Constitution. Thomas Jefferson said: “If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency first by inflation then by deflation the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered... I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs.” Mark Moss explains it well here. Charlie Robinsons take here.
The situation in Canada exemplifies the issues
Governments have have long used "international economic sanctions" against other nations to enforce their positions. Now in Canada, and soon in your country too, they are applying such sanctions their own citizens - disconnecting them from the financial system and removing their ability to use their own life savings as they wish. Canadians spoke with their money - in one week they raised more money in support of the truckers for peaceful protest than were raised in support of all Canadian political parties in the election of last year - only to have it confiscated and blocked by those politicians.

"The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it."

2025-05-16 17:51:54In much of the world, it is incredibly difficult to access U.S. dollars. Local currencies are often poorly managed and riddled with corruption. Billions of people demand a more reliable alternative. While the dollar has its own issues of corruption and mismanagement, it is widely regarded as superior to the fiat currencies it competes with globally. As a result, Tether has found massive success providing low cost, low friction access to dollars. Tether claims 400 million total users, is on track to add 200 million more this year, processes 8.1 million transactions daily, and facilitates $29 billion in daily transfers. Furthermore, their estimates suggest nearly 40% of users rely on it as a savings tool rather than just a transactional currency.
Tether’s rise has made the company a financial juggernaut. Last year alone, Tether raked in over $13 billion in profit, with a lean team of less than 100 employees. Their business model is elegantly simple: hold U.S. Treasuries and collect the interest. With over $113 billion in Treasuries, Tether has turned a straightforward concept into a profit machine.
Tether’s success has resulted in many competitors eager to claim a piece of the pie. This has triggered a massive venture capital grift cycle in USD tokens, with countless projects vying to dethrone Tether. Due to Tether’s entrenched network effect, these challengers face an uphill battle with little realistic chance of success. Most educated participants in the space likely recognize this reality but seem content to perpetuate the grift, hoping to cash out by dumping their equity positions on unsuspecting buyers before they realize the reality of the situation.
Historically, Tether’s greatest vulnerability has been U.S. government intervention. For over a decade, the company operated offshore with few allies in the U.S. establishment, making it a major target for regulatory action. That dynamic has shifted recently and Tether has seized the opportunity. By actively courting U.S. government support, Tether has fortified their position. This strategic move will likely cement their status as the dominant USD token for years to come.
While undeniably a great tool for the millions of users that rely on it, Tether is not without flaws. As a centralized, trusted third party, it holds the power to freeze or seize funds at its discretion. Corporate mismanagement or deliberate malpractice could also lead to massive losses at scale. In their goal of mitigating regulatory risk, Tether has deepened ties with law enforcement, mirroring some of the concerns of potential central bank digital currencies. In practice, Tether operates as a corporate CBDC alternative, collaborating with authorities to surveil and seize funds. The company proudly touts partnerships with leading surveillance firms and its own data reveals cooperation in over 1,000 law enforcement cases, with more than $2.5 billion in funds frozen.
The global demand for Tether is undeniable and the company’s profitability reflects its unrivaled success. Tether is owned and operated by bitcoiners and will likely continue to push forward strategic goals that help the movement as a whole. Recent efforts to mitigate the threat of U.S. government enforcement will likely solidify their network effect and stifle meaningful adoption of rival USD tokens or CBDCs. Yet, for all their achievements, Tether is simply a worse form of money than bitcoin. Tether requires trust in a centralized entity, while bitcoin can be saved or spent without permission. Furthermore, Tether is tied to the value of the US Dollar which is designed to lose purchasing power over time, while bitcoin, as a truly scarce asset, is designed to increase in purchasing power with adoption. As people awaken to the risks of Tether’s control, and the benefits bitcoin provides, bitcoin adoption will likely surpass it.

2025-05-16 17:12:05One of the most common criticisms leveled against nostr is the perceived lack of assurance when it comes to data storage. Critics argue that without a centralized authority guaranteeing that all data is preserved, important information will be lost. They also claim that running a relay will become prohibitively expensive. While there is truth to these concerns, they miss the mark. The genius of nostr lies in its flexibility, resilience, and the way it harnesses human incentives to ensure data availability in practice.
A nostr relay is simply a server that holds cryptographically verifiable signed data and makes it available to others. Relays are simple, flexible, open, and require no permission to run. Critics are right that operating a relay attempting to store all nostr data will be costly. What they miss is that most will not run all encompassing archive relays. Nostr does not rely on massive archive relays. Instead, anyone can run a relay and choose to store whatever subset of data they want. This keeps costs low and operations flexible, making relay operation accessible to all sorts of individuals and entities with varying use cases.
Critics are correct that there is no ironclad guarantee that every piece of data will always be available. Unlike bitcoin where data permanence is baked into the system at a steep cost, nostr does not promise that every random note or meme will be preserved forever. That said, in practice, any data perceived as valuable by someone will likely be stored and distributed by multiple entities. If something matters to someone, they will keep a signed copy.
Nostr is the Streisand Effect in protocol form. The Streisand effect is when an attempt to suppress information backfires, causing it to spread even further. With nostr, anyone can broadcast signed data, anyone can store it, and anyone can distribute it. Try to censor something important? Good luck. The moment it catches attention, it will be stored on relays across the globe, copied, and shared by those who find it worth keeping. Data deemed important will be replicated across servers by individuals acting in their own interest.
Nostr’s distributed nature ensures that the system does not rely on a single point of failure or a corporate overlord. Instead, it leans on the collective will of its users. The result is a network where costs stay manageable, participation is open to all, and valuable verifiable data is stored and distributed forever.

2025-05-15 15:31:45Capitalism is the most effective system for scaling innovation. The pursuit of profit is an incredibly powerful human incentive. Most major improvements to human society and quality of life have resulted from this base incentive. Market competition often results in the best outcomes for all.
That said, some projects can never be monetized. They are open in nature and a business model would centralize control. Open protocols like bitcoin and nostr are not owned by anyone and if they were it would destroy the key value propositions they provide. No single entity can or should control their use. Anyone can build on them without permission.
As a result, open protocols must depend on donation based grant funding from the people and organizations that rely on them. This model works but it is slow and uncertain, a grind where sustainability is never fully reached but rather constantly sought. As someone who has been incredibly active in the open source grant funding space, I do not think people truly appreciate how difficult it is to raise charitable money and deploy it efficiently.
Projects that can be monetized should be. Profitability is a super power. When a business can generate revenue, it taps into a self sustaining cycle. Profit fuels growth and development while providing projects independence and agency. This flywheel effect is why companies like Google, Amazon, and Apple have scaled to global dominance. The profit incentive aligns human effort with efficiency. Businesses must innovate, cut waste, and deliver value to survive.
Contrast this with non monetized projects. Without profit, they lean on external support, which can dry up or shift with donor priorities. A profit driven model, on the other hand, is inherently leaner and more adaptable. It is not charity but survival. When survival is tied to delivering what people want, scale follows naturally.
The real magic happens when profitable, sustainable businesses are built on top of open protocols and software. Consider the many startups building on open source software stacks, such as Start9, Mempool, and Primal, offering premium services on top of the open source software they build out and maintain. Think of companies like Block or Strike, which leverage bitcoin’s open protocol to offer their services on top. These businesses amplify the open software and protocols they build on, driving adoption and improvement at a pace donations alone could never match.
When you combine open software and protocols with profit driven business the result are lean, sustainable companies that grow faster and serve more people than either could alone. Bitcoin’s network, for instance, benefits from businesses that profit off its existence, while nostr will expand as developers monetize apps built on the protocol.
Capitalism scales best because competition results in efficiency. Donation funded protocols and software lay the groundwork, while market driven businesses build on top. The profit incentive acts as a filter, ensuring resources flow to what works, while open systems keep the playing field accessible, empowering users and builders. Together, they create a flywheel of innovation, growth, and global benefit.

@ 8f69ac99:4f92f5fd
2025-05-16 11:40:35Há algo quase reconfortante na previsibilidade com que certos colunistas abordam Bitcoin: a cada oportunidade, repetem os mesmos chavões, reciclados com indignação moralista e embrulhados numa embalagem de falsa autoridade. O artigo publicado na Visão, com o título dramático "De criança prodígio a adolescente problemático", encaixa-se perfeitamente nesse molde.
Trata-se de uma peça de opinião que mistura factos irrelevantes com interpretações enviesadas, estatísticas sem contexto e um medo mal disfarçado de perder o monopólio da narrativa económica. A autora, Sofia Santos Machado, opta por colar em Bitcoin os desastres do chamado “mundo cripto” como se fossem parte do mesmo fenómeno — ignorando, por conveniência ou ignorância, que Bitcoin não é altcoins, não é NFTs, não é esquemas de yield exótico, e não é fintech vestida de blockchain.
Esta resposta centra-se exclusivamente em Bitcoin — um protocolo monetário aberto, incorruptível e resistente à censura, que já está a servir como salvaguarda de valor em regiões onde o sistema financeiro convencional falhou. Não me interessa defender pirâmides, tokens inflacionários ou aventuras bancárias mal calculadas.
Criticar Bitcoin é legítimo — mas fazê-lo sem saber do que se fala é apenas desinformação.
A Histeria da Água — Falar Sem Saber
O artigo abre com uma pérola alarmista sobre o consumo de água:
“Uma única transacção de bitcoin consome seis milhões de vezes mais água do que um pagamento com cartão.”
Seis. Milhões. De vezes. Resta saber se a autora escreveu isto com cara séria ou a rir-se enquanto bebia água engarrafada dos Alpes Suíços.
Fontes? Metodologia? Contexto? Estou a brincar — isto é a Visão, onde os números são decoração e os factos opcionais.
Claro que comparar transacções na camada base de Bitcoin com pagamentos "instantâneos" da rede Visa é tão rigoroso como comparar um Boeing 747 com um avião de papel porque um voa mais longe. Um artigo sério teria falado em batching, na Lightning Network, ou no facto de que Bitcoin nem sequer compete com a Visa nesse nível, nem em nenhum. Mas isso exigiria, imagine-se, investigação.
Pior ainda, não há qualquer menção ao consumo de água na extracção de ouro, nos data centers bancários, ou no treino de modelos de inteligência artificial. Pelos vistos, só Bitcoin tem de obedecer aos mandamentos ecológicos da Visão. O resto? Santa ignorância selectiva.
Criminosos e o Fantasma do Satoshi
Eis o clássico: “Bitcoin é usado por criminosos”. Um cliché bafiento tirado do baú de 2013, agora reapresentado como se fosse escândalo fresco.
Na realidade, Bitcoin é pseudónimo, não anónimo. Todas as transacções ficam gravadas num livro público — não é propriamente o esconderijo ideal para lavar dinheiro, a menos que sejas fã de disfarces em néon.
E os dados? Claríssimos. Segundo a Chainalysis e a Europol, a actividade ilícita com Bitcoin tem vindo a diminuir. Enquanto isso, os bancos — esses bastiões de confiança — continuam a ser apanhados a lavar biliões para cartéis e cleptocratas. Mas disso a Visão não fala. Devia estragar a narrativa.
O verdadeiro crime aqui é a preguiça intelectual tão profunda que quase merece uma moldura. A Visão tem um editor?
O Espantalho Energético
Como uma criança que acabou de aprender uma palavra nova, a Visão repete “consumo energético” como se fosse um pecado original. Bitcoin usa electricidade — escândalo!
Mas vejamos: o Proof-of-Work não é um defeito. É a razão pela qual Bitcoin é seguro. Não há “desperdício” — há uso, e muitas vezes com energia excedente, renovável, ou que de outro modo seria desperdiçada. É por isso que os mineiros se instalam junto a barragens remotas, queima de gás (flaring), ou parques eólicos no meio do nada — não porque odeiam o planeta, mas porque os incentivos económicos funcionam. Escrevi sobre isso aqui.
O que a Visão convenientemente ignora é que Bitcoin está a ajudar a integrar mais energia renovável nas redes, funcionando como carga flexível. Mas nuance? Trabalho de casa? Esquece lá isso.
Para uma explicação mais séria, podiam ter ouvido o podcast A Seita Bitcoin com o Daniel Batten. Mas para quê investigar?
Cripto = Bitcoin = Fraude?
Aqui chegamos ao buraco negro intelectual: enfiar tudo no mesmo saco. FTX colapsou? Culpa de Bitcoin. Um banqueiro jogou com altcoins? Culpa de Bitcoin. Scam de NFT? Deve ter sido o Satoshi.
Vamos esclarecer: Bitcoin não é “cripto”. Bitcoin é descentralizado, sem líderes, transparente. Não teve pré-mineração, não tem CEO, não promete lucros. O que o rodeia? Tokens centralizados, esquemas Ponzi, pirâmides e vaporware — precisamente o oposto do que Bitcoin representa.
Se um executivo bancário perde o dinheiro dos clientes em Dogecoins, isso é um problema dele. Bitcoin não lhe prometeu nada. Foi a ganância.
E convenhamos: os bancos tradicionais também colapsam. E não precisam de satoshis para isso. Bastam dívidas mal geridas, contabilidade criativa e uma fé cega no sistema.
Culpar Bitcoin por falcatruas “cripto” é como culpar o TCP/IP ou SMTP por emails de phishing. É preguiçoso, desonesto e diz-nos mais sobre a autora do que sobre a tecnologia.
Promessas Por Cumprir? Só Se Não Estiveres a Ver
A "jornalista" da Visão lamenta que “após 15 anos, os riscos são reais mas as promessas por cumprir”. Que promessas? Dinheiro grátis? Cafés pagos com QR codes mágicos?
Bitcoin nunca prometeu fazer cappuccinos mais rápidos. Prometeu soberania monetária, resistência à censura e um sistema previsível. E tem cumprido — diariamente, para milhões. E para o cappuccino, há sempre a Lightning Network.
Pergunta aos venezuelanos, nigerianos, peruanos ou argentinos se Bitcoin falhou. Para muitos, é a única forma de escapar à hiperinflação, ao confisco estatal e à decadência financeira.
Bitcoin não é uma app. É infra-estrutura. É uma nova camada base para o dinheiro global. Não se vê — mas protege, impõe regras e não obedece a caprichos de banqueiros centrais.
E isso assusta. Especialmente quem nunca viveu fora da bolha do euro.
Conclusão: A Visão a Gritar Contra o Progresso
No fim, o artigo da Visão é um festival de clichés, dados errados e ressentimento. Não é só enganador. É desonesto. Culpa a tecnologia pelos erros dos homens. Rejeita o futuro em nome do conforto passado.
Bitcoin não é uma varinha mágica. Mas é a fundação de uma nova liberdade financeira. Uma ferramenta para proteger valor, resistir a abusos e escapar ao controlo constante de quem acha que sabe o que é melhor para ti.
Portanto, fica aqui o desafio, Sofia: se queres criticar Bitcoin, primeiro percebe o que é. Lê o white paper. Estuda. Faz perguntas difíceis.
Caso contrário, és só mais um cão a ladrar para a trovoada — muito barulho, zero impacto.

2025-05-15 01:22:34เมื่อพูดถึง Bitcoin Standard หลายคนมักนึกถึงภาพโลกอนาคตที่ทุกคนใช้บิตคอยน์ซื้อกาแฟหรือของใช้ในชีวิตประจำวัน ภาพแบบนั้นดูเหมือนไกลตัวและเป็นไปไม่ได้ในความเป็นจริง หลายคนถึงกับพูดว่า “คงไม่ทันเห็นในช่วงชีวิตนี้หรอก” แต่ในมุมมองของผม Bitcoin Standard อาจไม่ได้เริ่มต้นจากการที่เราจ่ายบิตคอยน์โดยตรงในร้านค้า แต่อาจเริ่มจากบางสิ่งที่เงียบกว่า ลึกกว่า และเกิดขึ้นแล้วในขณะนี้ นั่นคือ การล่มสลายทีละน้อยของระบบเฟียตที่เราใช้กันอยู่
ระบบเงินที่อิงกับอำนาจรัฐกำลังเข้าสู่ช่วงขาลง รัฐบาลทั่วโลกกำลังจมอยู่ในภาระหนี้ระดับประวัติการณ์ แม้แต่ประเทศมหาอำนาจก็เริ่มแสดงสัญญาณของภาวะเสี่ยงผิดนัดชำระหนี้ อัตราเงินเฟ้อกลายเป็นปัญหาเรื้อรังที่ไม่มีท่าทีจะหายไป ธนาคารที่เคยโอนฟรีเริ่มกลับมาคิดค่าธรรมเนียม และประชาชนก็เริ่มรู้สึกถึงการเสื่อมศรัทธาในระบบการเงินดั้งเดิม แม้จะยังพูดกันไม่เต็มเสียงก็ตาม
ในขณะเดียวกัน บิตคอยน์เองก็กำลังพัฒนาแบบเงียบ ๆ เงียบ... แต่ไม่เคยหยุด โดยเฉพาะในระดับ Layer 2 ที่เริ่มแสดงศักยภาพอย่างจริงจัง Lightning Network เป็น Layer 2 ที่เปิดใช้งานมาได้ระยะเวลสหนึ่ง และยังคงมีบทบาทสำคัญที่สุดในระบบนิเวศของบิตคอยน์ มันทำให้การชำระเงินเร็วขึ้น มีต้นทุนต่ำ และไม่ต้องบันทึกทุกธุรกรรมลงบล็อกเชน เครือข่ายนี้กำลังขยายตัวทั้งในแง่ของโหนดและการใช้งานจริงทั่วโลก
ขณะเดียวกัน Layer 2 ทางเลือกอื่นอย่าง Ark Protocol ก็กำลังพัฒนาเพื่อตอบโจทย์ด้านความเป็นส่วนตัวและประสบการณ์ใช้งานที่ง่าย BitVM เปิดแนวทางใหม่ให้บิตคอยน์รองรับ smart contract ได้ในระดับ Turing-complete ซึ่งทำให้เกิดความเป็นไปได้ในกรณีใช้งานอีกมากมาย และเทคโนโลยีที่น่าสนใจอย่าง Taproot Assets, Cashu และ Fedimint ก็ทำให้การออกโทเคนหรือสกุลเงินที่อิงกับบิตคอยน์เป็นจริงได้บนโครงสร้างของบิตคอยน์เอง
เทคโนโลยีเหล่านี้ไม่ใช่การเติบโตแบบปาฏิหาริย์ แต่มันคืบหน้าอย่างต่อเนื่องและมั่นคง และนั่นคือเหตุผลที่มันจะ “อยู่รอด” ได้ในระยะยาว เมื่อฐานของความน่าเชื่อถือไม่ใช่บริษัท รัฐบาล หรือทุน แต่คือสิ่งที่ตรวจสอบได้และเปลี่ยนกฎไม่ได้
แน่นอนว่าบิตคอยน์ต้องแข่งขันกับ stable coin, เงินดิจิทัลของรัฐ และ cryptocurrency อื่น ๆ แต่สิ่งที่ทำให้มันเหนือกว่านั้นไม่ใช่ฟีเจอร์ หากแต่เป็นความทนทาน และความมั่นคงของกฎที่ไม่มีใครเปลี่ยนได้ ไม่มีทีมพัฒนา ไม่มีบริษัท ไม่มีประตูปิด หรือการยึดบัญชี มันยืนอยู่บนคณิตศาสตร์ พลังงาน และเวลา
หลายกรณีใช้งานที่เคยถูกทดลองในโลกคริปโตจะค่อย ๆ เคลื่อนเข้ามาสู่บิตคอยน์ เพราะโครงสร้างของมันแข็งแกร่งกว่า ไม่ต้องการทีมพัฒนาแกนกลาง ไม่ต้องพึ่งกลไกเสี่ยงต่อการผูกขาด และไม่ต้องการ “ความเชื่อใจ” จากใครเลย
Bitcoin Standard ที่ผมพูดถึงจึงไม่ใช่การเปลี่ยนแปลงแบบพลิกหน้ามือเป็นหลังมือ แต่คือการ “เปลี่ยนฐานของระบบ” ทีละชั้น ระบบการเงินใหม่ที่อิงอยู่กับบิตคอยน์กำลังเกิดขึ้นแล้ว มันไม่ใช่โลกที่ทุกคนถือเหรียญบิตคอยน์ แต่มันคือโลกที่คนใช้อาจไม่รู้ตัวด้วยซ้ำว่า “สิ่งที่เขาใช้นั้นอิงอยู่กับบิตคอยน์”
ผู้คนอาจใช้เงินดิจิทัลที่สร้างบน Layer 3 หรือ Layer 4 ผ่านแอป ผ่านแพลตฟอร์ม หรือผ่านสกุลเงินใหม่ที่ดูไม่ต่างจากเดิม แต่เบื้องหลังของระบบจะผูกไว้กับบิตคอยน์
และถ้ามองในเชิงพัฒนาการ บิตคอยน์ก็เหมือนกับอินเทอร์เน็ต ครั้งหนึ่งอินเทอร์เน็ตก็ถูกมองว่าเข้าใจยาก ต้องพิมพ์ http ต้องรู้จัก TCP/IP ต้องตั้ง proxy เอง แต่ปัจจุบันผู้คนใช้งานอินเทอร์เน็ตโดยไม่รู้ว่าเบื้องหลังมีอะไรเลย บิตคอยน์กำลังเดินตามเส้นทางเดียวกัน โปรโตคอลกำลังถอยออกจากสายตา และวันหนึ่งเราจะ “ใช้มัน” โดยไม่ต้องรู้ว่ามันคืออะไร
หากนับจากช่วงเริ่มต้นของอินเทอร์เน็ตในยุค 1990 จนกลายเป็นโครงสร้างหลักของโลกในสองทศวรรษ เส้นเวลาของบิตคอยน์ก็กำลังเดินตามรอยเท้าของอินเทอร์เน็ต และถ้าเราเชื่อว่าวัฏจักรของเทคโนโลยีมีจังหวะของมันเอง เราก็จะรู้ว่า Bitcoin Standard นั้นไม่ใช่เรื่องของอนาคตไกลโพ้น แต่มันเกิดขึ้นแล้ว

2025-05-16 17:32:56The rental population in Spain has grown from about 5 million in 2005 to around 10 million in 2025. During that same period, Spain's total population has increased by 6 million people, from 43 to 49 million. In other words, the entire population growth over the past 20 years has essentially gone straight into the rental market.
This demographic growth is not due to natural increase, Spain has one of the lowest fertility rates in the world. Instead, population growth is driven by a positive migratory balance, which has been the main factor behind the rise in rental demand.
This increased demand for rentals has pushed up rental prices, which have significantly outpaced the growth in property sale prices. That didn’t happen during the Great Financial Crisis. The growth in both demand and prices is allowing rental profitability to remain at the high end of the curve—around 5% net.
This situation explains the rise in housing squatting, from 2,000 cases in 2010 to 16,000 in 2024. Since the immigrant population is the main driver of this surge in rental demand, it is more vulnerable to squatting, as they often have no alternative housing when they are unable to pay.
The unemployment rate is currently low, however, if it were to rise (as it did during the Great Financial Crisis and other periods in the past), squatting would likely increase significantly, representing the main risk to the current real estate market in Spain.

2025-05-16 08:18:52Value Creation at the Edge
The conversation around artificial intelligence has largely centered on the technology itself, the capabilities of large language models, the race for more parameters, and the competition between AI companies.
He with the most data / biggest model / biggest platform wins all.
As we're been exploring in recent "Good Stuff" podcasts, the true business model of AI may be much more straightforward. AI is after all a productivity tool with little technical moat, in fact the existence of AI coding and learning tools quickly chop away at this moat even quicker!.\ \ We believe that the it's about transforming traditional human heavy businesses by dramatically reducing operational costs while maintaining or increasing output.
AI is poised to create value not primarily for AI companies themselves, but for businesses that effectively implement AI to transform their operations, particularly small, local businesses that can become extraordinarily efficient through AI adoption.
The Value Shift: From AI Companies to AI-Enabled Traditional Businesses
A central insight from episode 1 of the podcast series, is that the value of AI isn't likely to accrue primarily to companies like OpenAI or other AI technology providers. Instead, the real winners will be traditional service businesses that can leverage AI to transform their operations and cost structures.
"I think we're gonna see this shift to traditional service businesses... that traditionally have pretty fixed low margins because of a dependency on language-heavy workflows that require a lot of humans as the medium of intelligence in the business."
The opportunity here is to use AI to manage the language dependency and shift the moments of intelligence, that currently exist in the heads of our staff, into software that can run 24x7 for fractions of a cost.\ \ The real limiting factor here is less a magic AGI, but instead detailed thinking and process redesign to move humans to the edge of the process. As it turns out if we think through what each person is doing in detail we see the specific decisions, outputs, moments of intelligence are actually quite constrained and can be replicated in LLM's if we break them down to a low enough level of fidelity and take each decisions one step at a time.\ \ The result? Businesses that have traditionally operated with fixed, low margins can potentially achieve "software-style margins" by dramatically reducing their operational expenses.
Transforming Traditional Service Businesses
We have developed three key heuristics for identifying businesses that could benefit most from AI transformation:
-
Language Intensity: Businesses where much of the work involves processing language (reading, writing, communicating). Language in, language out. If you are sat in a chair and typing all day, this could be you.
-
Labor Component: Where we see this language intensity so we find many people performing similar, standardized roles. For examples, if we have four people in the same role this is a big clue we have good process, checklists, role descriptions etc for how the work can be done in order to replicate work across multiple people.
-
Load in the Business: Taking these processes into account, what amount of the operational expense of the business do they represent? Where these language and labor-intensive operations represent a significant portion of the business cost, we can see there will be significant return.
Traditional service businesses that match these criteria—legal firms, accounting practices, consulting agencies, contract engineering, design agencies and others—could see dramatic transformations through AI implementation.
By automating these language-heavy processes, businesses can potentially reduce operational costs by 50-80% while maintaining similar levels of output.
The Power of Small
We believe that small businesses may have an inherent advantage in this transformation. While large enterprises face significant barriers to reducing their workforce (political pressure, media scrutiny, organizational complexity), smaller businesses can adapt more quickly and focus on growth rather than just cost-cutting.
If I'm in a 20,000 person business and I need to remove 10,000 people... that's hard. You can't do this without sending political shock waves in your local community.
If I'm a 10 person business and I need to double my revenue, nobody gives a shit. I can just do it.
For small businesses, AI removes growth constraints. When adding the "21st person" no longer represents a significant capital investment, small businesses can scale much more efficiently:
If the next nominal client that you onboard doesn't actually cause you any more additional pain, if you don't need to hire more people to service that client... you just take off the brakes off from a growth perspective.
This gives small business a unique advantage in capitalizing on AI.
From "Bionic Humans" to "Humans at the Edge"
We currently see this integration to business happening in one of two models:
-
The Bionic Human: Equipping workers with AI tools to make them more productive.
-
Human at the Edge: Redesigning processes to be AI-native, with humans entering the process only when needed (and often facilitated by bitcoin payments).
While many businesses are focused on the first approach and it can certainly see returns, it is still a process constrained by the human input. The real value unlock comes from fundamentally redesigning business processes with AI at the core.
Now we can purchase intelligence in buckets of $0.02 API calls, how would we operate different?
This represents a profound shift in how we think about work and processes. Rather than humans being central to processes with tools supporting them, AI becomes the backbone of operations with humans providing input only at critical junctures.
This is "a complete mental shift" that challenges our fundamental assumptions about how businesses operate. The human becomes "the interface with the real world" for AI systems rather than the primary processor of information and decision-maker.
The Value Trap: Understanding the Competitive Dynamic
So what happens next? Here we have developed the concept of the Value Trap to explain how the competitive landscape will evolve as AI adoption increases..\ \
Initially, early adopters of AI and "Human at the Edge" business processes, will see dramatic benefits.
If your costs have dropped from 90 to 20 this creates an immediate competitive advantage where the early adopter is "now making 80 units of profit versus your 10 units of profit.
They gain massive pricing power in the industry and can compete for growth with an unfair advantage.
Over time, and here we believe this is likely a 5-10 year period although we believe the quicker side, competitive pressures will erode these advantages.\ \ As competitors adopt similar AI strategies, price competition will intensify, and revenues will decline. The business that initially saw its costs drop from 90 to 20 units might see its revenue decline from 100 to 30 units, resulting in similar margins but much lower overall revenue, often destroying the enterprise value of the company at these new revenue / profit levels!
This evolution creates an imperative for businesses to adopt AI early, not just to maintain perpetual advantage, but simply to survive the transition. Worse they're hit with a second challenge of the value trap, how do I keep hold of the value I generate along the way.\ \ If you're reading this on Nostr you may already suspect a way out of this value trap.\ \ If not I would invite you to consider storing the immediate short term returns you pull forwards in something that would be inflation resistant, hard to seize and ideally portable.\ \ We refer to this as a 'The big orange arbitrage".
Implications for Business Owners and Capital Allocators
For business owners, especially those running small to medium-sized enterprises, the message is clear: understand how AI could transform your industry and begin planning your transition now.\ \ This might involve creating an "AI-native twin" of your current business—similar to how Netflix developed streaming alongside its DVD business—to eventually replace your current operations. If you want help please ask, I heavily favor more small businesses in the world and would love to help make this a reality.
For capital allocation, the emerging opportunity we see if in "transformation led private equity". The acquisition of traditional service businesses and applying AI to dramatically reduce operational costs and increase enterprise value.\ \ This approach treats AI not as a product but as a transformation strategy for existing businesses with proven product-market fit.
Transformation led PE is venture style returns without the risk of product market fit.
So the lesson?
The business model of AI isn't all about selling AI technology, adding a RAG chatbot to a new DB or collecting everyone's data.\ \ Consider the humble cash flow business, use AI to transform the operational processes and save into everyone's favorite orange coin.

2025-05-15 20:08:32Owl’s One-Legged Vigil
The vigil, one leg style
In a misty grove, Sylas the owl perched on a gnarled oak, standing on one leg. His golden eyes scanned the night. Why one leg? A vow to honor his lost mate, taken by a hawk. Each dusk, Sylas balanced, unwavering, as stars wheeled above. His silent stance drew the forest’s gaze—squirrels paused, deer bowed. One moonlit night, a young owl mimicked him, sparking hope. Sylas’s vigil became legend, a beacon of resilience.
Owl’s One-Legged Vigil: Part Two
Part 2
In the misty grove, Sylas stood on one leg, his vigil unbroken. The young owl, inspired, joined nightly, mimicking his stance. Word spread—foxes whispered, ravens cawed. Sylas’s balance was no mere feat; it was defiance against loss. One stormy dusk, winds howled, yet Sylas held firm, his single leg rooted. The young owl faltered but watched in awe. Moonlight pierced the clouds, bathing them in silver. Sylas hooted softly, a call of endurance. The grove’s creatures gathered, drawn by his resolve. A wise badger spoke: “Your vigil heals us.” The young owl, now named Lark, vowed to carry Sylas’s legacy. As dawn broke, Sylas stretched both legs, his vow fulfilled. He flew with Lark, their wings brushing the sky. The grove thrived, united by his stand. Sylas’s one-legged vigil became a tale of hope, etched in every tree.

2025-05-16 17:00:59Technológiai fejlemények
Az Egyesült Államokban és világszerte jelentős előrelépések történtek a nukleáris technológia területén. A mesterséges intelligencia (AI) egyre nagyobb szerepet kap az atomerőművek működtetésében: például a kaliforniai Diablo Canyon atomerőmű már alkalmaz generatív AI-t a dokumentumkezelés és az üzemeltetési hatékonyság javítására. Az AI segíti az üzemeltetőket a karbantartás előrejelzésében, a biztonság növelésében és a reaktorok élettartamának meghosszabbításában is. Emellett az USA Nukleáris Szabályozó Bizottsága (NRC) is vizsgálja, hogyan gyorsíthatná fel az engedélyezési folyamatokat AI-alapú rendszerekkel, ami jelentősen felgyorsíthatja az új reaktorok telepítését.
A NANO Nuclear Energy jelentős mérföldkövet ért el: megszerezte a KRONOS MMR™ (45 MWth teljesítményű, helyhez kötött mikroreaktor) és a LOKI MMR™ (1–5 MWth teljesítményű, hordozható mikroreaktor) technológiákat, és ezek fejlesztését az USA-ban és Kanadában is előmozdítja. A KRONOS MMR üzemanyag-minősítési módszertanát az NRC már jóváhagyta, ami kulcsfontosságú a kereskedelmi bevezetéshez
Ipari és piaci fejlemények
Az amerikai The Nuclear Company startup 46 millió dolláros tőkebevonással kívánja új, nagy teljesítményű atomerőművek fejlesztését megkezdeni, elsősorban már engedélyezett helyszíneken. A cél, hogy az első flottában összesen 6 gigawatt kapacitást hozzanak létre. Ez a lépés válasz a gyorsan növekvő amerikai áramigényre, amelyet főként az adatközpontok és a mesterséges intelligencia-alkalmazások hajtanak. Ugyanakkor a nukleáris ipar pénzügyi kilátásait bizonytalanság övezi, mivel az amerikai törvényhozás egyes tervezetei a nukleáris energia adókedvezményeinek megszüntetését is kilátásba helyezték, ami a jövőbeni beruházások megtérülését is befolyásolhatja.
Belgiumban a parlament váratlan fordulattal úgy döntött, hogy nem zárják be az atomerőműveket, hanem tíz évvel meghosszabbítják a reaktorok élettartamát, sőt, új reaktorok építését is tervezik. A döntés mögött az energiaválság, az ellátásbiztonság és a geopolitikai feszültségek állnak.
Magyarországon folytatódik a Paks II. projekt előkészítése, és napirenden van kis moduláris reaktorok (SMR) telepítése is, amelyek néhány száz megawattos teljesítményükkel akár ipari zónákat vagy városokat is önállóan elláthatnak.
Pénzügyi és geopolitikai aktualitások
A nukleáris energia geopolitikai jelentősége továbbra is kiemelkedő. Tajvan szombaton leállítja utolsó működő atomerőművi blokkját, ami jelentős LNG-import költségnövekedést eredményez, és komoly vitákat váltott ki a szigetországban. A törvényhozás ugyanakkor már vizsgálja az atomenergia-törvény felülvizsgálatát, amely lehetővé teheti a reaktorok újraindítását – erről akár népszavazás is lehet a közeljövőben.
Az USA és Irán között folytatódnak az atomprogramról szóló tárgyalások. Bár közelednek az álláspontok, az USA új szankciókat vezetett be Irán ellen, mivel Teherán továbbra is magas szintű urándúsítást folytat. Az esetleges megállapodás rövid távon növelheti az iráni kőolajexportot, ami a világpiaci árakra is hatással lehet.

We'll probably be done with the 2nd round, by the time we record, which means round 2 recap and conference finals previews. It's definitely not the matchups anyone expected. What are the implications for our brackets?
The NFL released the season schedules and @grayruby's rightly excited for his 49ers upcoming season.
The parity situation worsens in the MLB, as the Dodgers' pitchers are ravaged by injury. Also, @grayruby and I are going head-to-head in fantasy baseball this week. Who will prevail?
On this week's Blok'd Shots, @grayruby will dance on the Leafs' grave and celebrate their well-deserved misfortune. Hell hath no fury like a scorned Leafs fan. Also, the NHL bracket is coming down to me and @Jer. Will knowing anything about hockey be enough to get Jer the victory?

2025-05-16 07:51:08Payjoin allows the sender and receiver of an on-chain payment to collaborate and create a transaction that breaks on-chain heuristics, allowing a more private transaction with ambiguous payment amount and UTXO ownership. Additionally, it can also be used for UTXO consolidation (receiver saves future fees) and batching payments (receiver can make payment(s) of their own in the process of receiving one), also known as transaction cut-through. Other than improved privacy, the rest of the benefits are typically applicable to the receiver, not the sender.
BIP-78 was the original payjoin protocol that required the receiver to run a endpoint/server (always online) in order to mediate the payjoin process. Payjoin adoption has remained pretty low, something attributed to the server & perpetual online-ness requirement. This is the motivation for payjoin v2.
The purpose of the one-pager is to analyse the protocol, and highlight the UX issues or tradeoffs it entails, so that the payjoin user flows can be appropriately designed and the tradeoffs likewise communicated. A further document on UX solutions might be needed to identify solutions and opportunities
The following observations are generally limited to individual users transacting through their mobile devices:
While users naturally want better privacy and fee-savings, they also want to minimise friction and minimise (optimise) payment time. These are universal and more immediate needs since they deal with the user experience.
Added manual steps
TL;DR v2 payjoin eliminates server & simultaneous user-liveness requirements (increasing TAM, and opportunities to payjoin, as a result) by adding manual steps.
Usually, the extent of the receiver's involvement in the transaction process is limited to sharing their address with the sender. Once they share the address/URI, they can basically forget about it. In the target scenario for v2 payjoin, the receiver must come online again (except they have no way of knowing "when") to contribute input(s) and sign the PSBT. This can be unexpected, unintuitive and a bit of a hassle.
Usually (and even with payjoin v1), the sender crafts and broadcasts the transaction in one go; meaning the user's job is done within a few seconds/minutes. With payjoin v2, they must share the original-PSBT with the receiver, and then wait for them to do their part. Once the the receiver has done that, the sender must come online to review the transaction, sign it & broadcast.
In summary,
In payjoin v1, step 3 is automated and instant, so delay 2, 3 =~ 0. As the user experiences it, the process is completed in a single session, akin to a non-payjoin transaction.
With payjoin v2, Steps 2 & 3 in the above diagram are widely spread and noticeable. These manual steps are separated by uncertain delays (more on that below) when compared to a non-payjoin transaction.
Delays
We've established that both senders and receivers must take extra manual steps to execute a payoin transaction. With payjoin v2, this process gets split into multiple sessions, since the sender and receiver are not like to be online simultaneously.
Delay 2 & 3 (see diagram above) are uncertain in nature. Most users do not open their bitcoin wallets for days or weeks! The receiver must come online before the timeout hits in order for the payjoin process to work, otherwise time is just wasted with no benefit. UX or technical solutions are needed to minimise these delays.
Delays might be exacerbated if the setup is based on hardware wallet and/or uses multisig.
Notifications or background processes
There is one major problem when we say "the user must come online to..." but in reality the user has no way of knowing there is a payjoin PSBT waiting for them. After a PSBT is sent to the relay, the opposite user would only find out about it whenever they happen to come online. Notifications and background sync processes might be necessary to minimise delays. This is absolutely essential to avert timeouts in addition to saving valuable time. Another risk is phantom payjoin stuff after the timeout is expired if receiver-side does not know it has.
Fee Savings
The following observations might be generally applicable for both original and this v2 payjoin version. Fee-savings with payjoin is a tricky topic. Of course, overall a payjoin transaction is always cheaper than 2 separate transactions, since they get to share the overhead.
Additionally, without the receiver contributing to fees, the chosen fee rate of the PSBT (at the beginning) drops, and can lead to slower confirmation. From another perspective, a sender paying with payjoin pays higher fees for similar confirmation target. This has been observed in a production wallet years back. Given that total transaction time can extend to days, the fee environment itself might change, and all this must be considered when designing the UX.
Of course, there is nothing stopping the receiver from contributing to fees, but this idea is likely entirely novel to the bitcoin ecosystem (perhaps payments ecosystem in general) and the user base. Additionally, nominally it involves the user paying fees and tolerating delays just to receive bitcoin. Without explicit incentives/features that encourage receivers to participate, payjoining might seem like an unncessary hassle.
Overall, it seems that payjoin makes UX significant tradeoffs for important privacy (and potential fee-saving) benefits. This means that the UX might have to do significant heavy-lifting, to ensure that users are not surprised, confused or frustrated when they try to transact on-chain in a privacy-friendly feature. Good, timely communication, new features for consolidation & txn-cutthrough and guided user flows seem crucial to ensure payjoin adoption and for help make on-chain privacy a reality for users.

2025-05-15 14:42:29Good morning, readers!
We bring news from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where the Rwanda-backed M23 rebel group is imposing immense taxes on the local economy, merchants, and aid groups to fund its insurgency as it seeks to govern seized regions of the Eastern Congo. The levies worsen economic hardship for Congolese already suffering from ongoing cash shortages, bank closures, and rapidly rising prices induced by the regional conflict.
Meanwhile, in Hong Kong, independent media outlet Channel C, founded by former Apple Daily employees, had its bank account frozen by local officials over alleged fraud charges. The closure fits into a widespread pattern of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leveraging financial repression and legal pressure to silence independent and pro-democracy media in Hong Kong.
In freedom tech news, we highlight a new ecash development: multinut payments. These payments let users combine small balances held at different ecash mints to pay a single invoice. It’s a big step forward in terms of usability and security for human rights defenders since they no longer need to keep a large balance of ecash at any one mint. This reduces the chances of stolen funds while maintaining strong privacy guarantees. We also highlight the ongoing OP_RETURN debate in the Bitcoin community, present both sides of the argument, and invite our readers to watch a nuanced debate on this topic.
We end with the latest edition of the HRF x Pubkey Freedom Tech series, where the Human Rights Foundation’s Alex Gladstein discusses the upcoming Oslo Freedom Forum and HRF’s role in supporting open-source freedom tech with Pubkey’s co-founder, Thomas Pacchia. We also include the livestreams from the latest bitcoin++ event, where developers, privacy advocates, and freedom tech users convened to discuss Bitcoin’s mempool, learn how Bitcoin transactions are sorted into blocks, and discuss current mempool policies.
Now, let’s jump right in!

GLOBAL NEWS
DR Congo | Rebel Rule and Economic Ruin
After seizing control of large parts of the eastern Congo, the Paul Kagame-backed M23 rebel group is now trying to govern and fund its insurgency through coercive taxation and financial control. Rebels now impose a 15% tax on coltan metal production, 20% duties on merchants selling essential goods, and demand tax bills from aid groups, backed by threats of physical punishment. “If you don’t pay up, you risk being whipped,” one merchant said. The new levies are worsening the financial struggles for Congolese already suffering from ongoing cash shortages, bank closures, and rapidly rising prices induced by the regional conflict. Many must travel hundreds of kilometers just to obtain cash while navigating the backdrop of a humanitarian crisis that has claimed more than 7,000 lives.
China | Law Enforcement Freezes Bank Accounts of Independent Media Outlet Channel C
Hong Kong-based Channel C, an independent media outlet founded by former Apple Daily employees, reports that its bank accounts are frozen, forcing the news outlet to halt operations. Local law enforcement claim the outlet abused a COVID-era loan scheme and arrested one of its directors for alleged fraud. Still, the closure fits a well-worn pattern: using financial and legal repression to silence independent media in Hong Kong. Pro-democracy newspaper Apple Daily faced a nearly identical fate in 2021 when its assets were seized and its founder, Jimmy Lai, was imprisoned under Hong Kong’s new national security law. Lai now faces up to life in prison. When access to money becomes contingent on political obedience, press freedom can’t survive.
Venezuela | Blackouts, Inflation, and Currency Shortages
Venezuelans are once again bracing for economic collapse as inflation rises to 162% and electrical blackouts sweep across major cities. The situation echoes 2019’s political and financial chaos, where triple-digit inflation, foreign currency shortages, and power outages paralyzed the country. In reaction to the collapse, Nicolás Maduro approved the country’s first economic emergency decree in four years, granting himself broad powers to suspend taxes and authorize new benefits for select investors. The regime has also reshuffled central bank leadership and is pressing merchants to abandon US dollar pricing and return to the failing bolivar system — a clear move to financially asphyxiate Venezuelans. A focus on top-down economic management by Maduro’s regime will only reinforce the inflation and poverty driving this widespread crisis in the wake of Maduro’s stolen and blatantly rigged presidential election.
Bolivia | Inflation Accelerates to 17-Year High
Inflation in Bolivia is accelerating rapidly, with prices rising more than 15% year over year. This is the highest level of inflation Bolivians have seen in 17 years. Families now face increased costs of essential goods like food, shelter, and water. And the country’s fixed exchange rate system is also faltering, with dwindling reserves and growing dollar shortages compounding the price increases. The Bolivian regime also approved a new decree to regulate financial technology companies and virtual asset providers. The regulations tighten control over platforms that offer alternatives to the depreciating boliviano. If implemented rigidly, these regulations could restrict access to tools like Bitcoin.
Nicaragua | Ortega Centralizes Passport Renewal in Managua for Exiled Dissidents
The regime of Daniel Ortega has stripped Nicaraguans abroad of a basic right: the ability to renew their passports at local embassies abroad. All renewals must now go through the Nicaraguan capital of Managua, forcing exiles to either return home or authorize a relative (via an apostilled power of attorney) to handle the renewal on their behalf. For many outside Nicaragua, especially political opposition, journalists, and human rights defenders, returning is not a safe option, and involving relatives could expose them to state repression or retaliation. Those who do return risk facing the immense physical and financial repression of the Ortega regime, including surveillance, extortion, bank freezes, or even imprisonment. Ortega’s corruption of even basic bureaucracy undermines the growing Nicaraguan diaspora’s ability to live freely abroad by making their legal status, mobility, and access to financial services conditional.
Kenya | High Court Rules Against Sam Altman and Worldcoin
A Kenyan High Court ruled that Worldcoin, the biometric ID project co-founded by Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, violated constitutional privacy rights by collecting iris scans and facial images without proper safeguards. The court ordered the immediate deletion of all biometric data collected from Kenyan users, including iris scans and facial images. They also banned the project from conducting any further data collection. Kenya had been one of Worldcoin’s largest markets before authorities suspended the project in 2023. As biometric surveillance becomes more widespread, this case highlights the risks of technologies that undermine privacy in the name of inclusion.
BITCOIN AND FREEDOM TECH NEWS
Cashu | Make Ecash Payments from Multiple Mints
Cashu, a protocol for making private bitcoin payments using ecash, shared a new feature called multinut payments. Still in development, it enables users to combine small ecash balances held at different mints (entities that issue and redeem ecash) into a single transaction. Since Cashu is a custodial system (meaning users must trust the mints they use), this update reduces counterparty risk by allowing users to spread their funds across multiple mints rather than relying on just one. Previously, making a large ecash payment required keeping a sizeable balance at a single mint, increasing the chances of losing your funds if the mint were shut down or compromised. Now, larger payments can be made with significantly less custody risk. For those living under strict financial controls, ecash multinut payments offer a very private way to spend funds without trusting any single entity that can censor or debank them.
Bitika | Bridging Bitcoin and M-Pesa in Kenya
Bitika is a Kenyan fintech startup simplifying Bitcoin access. It integrates with M-Pesa, the mobile money platform used daily for payments by millions of people across Kenya and wider East Africa. Bitika offers a three-step process to buy Bitcoin via mobile phone using the Lightning Network. Users simply enter the amount of Bitcoin they would like to receive in Kenyan shillings, input their Bitcoin Lightning wallet address, and enter their M-Pesa number, and once confirmed, they receive their Bitcoin. Bitika is similar to other Bitcoin projects like Tando, which also bridges Bitcoin with M-Pesa using the Lightning Network. With plans to expand across the rest of Africa, Bitika shows Bitcoin’s grassroots utility and the role of local context in driving bottom-up financial inclusion. Try it here.
Frostsnap | New Bitcoin Multisig Custody Solution
Frostsnap is a new Bitcoin custody solution that uses a simplified multisignature setup to protect users' funds from theft, loss, or coercion by corrupt and authoritarian regimes. Rather than generating and storing private keys on a single device, multisignature solutions like Frostsnap employ multiple private keys distributed across different devices and locations. This approach eliminates single points of failure and offers strong resistance to physical attacks, device compromise, and forced access to users’ Bitcoin (such as from Chinese law enforcement, who surveil mail and extort Bitcoin). Frostsnap also offers the ability to spend directly from the multisig wallet, hide the wallet in times of duress, and access inheritance features, all critical functionalities for human rights defenders and nonprofits facing surveillance or financial repression.

OP_RETURN | Debate Over Bitcoin Core’s Data Relay Limits
A heated debate has resurfaced between some Bitcoin users and developers over whether to raise the size limit for OP_RETURN data that Bitcoin Core nodes (computers running Bitcoin’s main software implementation) relay. The debate was sparked when developer Peter Todd proposed removing this data limit from mempool policy on the basis that it could reduce reliance on direct miner connections, improve fee estimation, and shrink the Unspent Transaction Output (UTXO) set. It would do this by encouraging users to store arbitrary data in prunable, unspendable outputs (rather than spendable, persistent UTXOs). On the other hand, critics warn that lifting the OP_RETURN limit could increase spam, undermine Bitcoin’s focus on serving financial transactions, and weaken its censorship resistance. The debate still continues, but at its core, the disagreement highlights deeper tensions over what kinds of data should flow through the Bitcoin network. Tune into this discussion at the latest bitcoin++ developer conference to understand the nuance on both sides of the OP_RETURN debate.
Wasabi Wallet | Major Privacy Upgrade and Serverless Operation
Wasabi Wallet, a non-custodial, privacy-focused Bitcoin wallet, introduced its Prometheus update, which enables the wallet to synchronize and operate without a central server and increases transaction privacy. Users can now connect Wasabi directly to their own Bitcoin node (computer running the Bitcoin software), removing reliance on third-party infrastructure and reducing the risk of censorship. The update also introduces Coinjoin 2.0, a privacy technique that mixes the inputs of a Bitcoin transaction, in doing so protecting, for example, the identity of a dissident or nonprofit. Coinjoin 2.0 brings a redesigned mixing process that continuously registers coins as they become available. This change improves privacy and strengthens resistance to analysis that dictators can use to track payments.
Cove Wallet | Adds Support for Krux
Cove Wallet, an open-source mobile Bitcoin wallet currently in beta, released v0.4.0, which brings support for Krux hardware wallets. Krux is an open-source software and HRF grantee that turns generic computing devices into hardware wallets for secure Bitcoin self-custody and transactions. It can help decentralize access to Bitcoin and protect freedom and property rights in authoritarian regimes by providing a discrete and modular self-custody solution. By incorporating Krux, Cove offers its users a private, borderless, DIY path to financial sovereignty with no brand-name hardware. Cove Wallet also announced future support for coin control, which will grant users granular control over the specific coins they use in their Bitcoin payments and the ability to improve transaction privacy.

2025-05-16 12:45:01Push it! Push it! Push it!
That chant still echoes in my bones, not just from the gym, but from the inside out. I remember watching a bodybuilder once — the weight trembling above him, his muscles bulging and giving out, the spotters swooping in to catch the bar just in time. “Train to failure,” they said. “That’s how you grow.”
And it makes sense, doesn’t it? If you’re being chased by a wild beast, you run until your body gives out. That’s how we’re wired — to survive first and foremost, not necessarily to thrive.
But what if the house we’re building isn’t under threat from wolves? What if we’ve got stone-moving machines and time to breathe? What if we’re not being chased anymore… but we still act like we are?
See, survival patterns are sneaky. They wear masks. They show up in workouts and work days. They dress up in ambition, caffeine, and “just one more thing before I stop.”
I’ve never been a bodybuilder — my brother was — but I’ve tried that route in my own work life. Lift to failure. Push it. Every other day, I’d be nursing another injury to body and mind.
I wasn’t getting stronger. I was just breaking myself in cycles. Push, break, recover, repeat.
I see the same thing with brains. Push it. Adderall. More coffee. Keep going. Hit the wall. And then—collapse.
That’s not strengthening. That’s surviving pretending to be “powerful.”
What happens to the rest of your system when your brain is sucking up all the energy just to stay on task? You stop digesting. You stop feeling the sun on your skin. You stop enjoying your kids’ laughter. Everything feels like something to push through.
That isn’t thriving.
Thriving feels different. It’s alive, yes — there’s activation. But it’s not strained. When we’re in thriving mode, we’re with our energy, not yanking it out by the roots and forcing it to regrow. The muscles — or the mind — are engaged, fluid, expressive. Alive.
It’s a fine line. You can take the same exact action and fill it with stress.
I’ve done it. I’ve turned a perfectly normal task into a survival sprint. It feels ridiculous in hindsight — like, why did I make this email reply into a mountain climb?
Because my primitive brain still whispers, “If you don’t do this perfectly and fast, you’ll die.” Not literally. But the threat feels real. The imagined judgment, the self-criticism, the fear of not being enough — they’re imaginary lions in the tall grass of modern life.
I’ve used this system on myself. I’ve strained my nervous system like fingernails scraping rock to avoid a fall that was never coming.
That’s what we’re supposed to do, right? We bring survival force into every aspect. Into parenting. Into projects. Into relationships.
And we wonder why we’re tired all the time. Not sleepy tired — soul tired. That kind of tired that feels like you ran for your life… but all you did was sit at your desk.
Here’s what I know now: if you’re not actually in danger, you can stop living like you are.
You don’t have to push everything to the edge. You don’t have to prove your strength through strain. Strength can be alive in you — not torn, not depleted, but awake and sustaining.
And when we live from there, the recovery feels different, too. We’re not collapsing. We’re restoring.
We’re not dropping all the pieces and then forcing ourselves to pick them up… again! Instead, we’re crafting a thriving life from the pieces we find, fashion, and consciously put in place.
There’s a wisdom to building your foundation around thriving — not just surviving. And thriving starts with recognizing: it’s not life or death to get through your inbox. Your self-worth isn’t measured by how busy and depleted you are.
Look around. Are you stacking more and more iron to prove something? Or are you listening to the quiet whisper that says, “Yes, move… but don’t hurt yourself doing it.”
And in a life that tells you to push until you fail, choosing to rest and relish — choosing to feel alive rather than just alive-enough — might just be the truest strength there is.
Useful Concepts for Thriving in This Story
-
Primitive Brain\ The primitive brain keeps us on high alert even when we’re safe — it’s time to question whether the lion is real.
-
Unrushed\ Being unrushed is a radical shift from survival tempo to the rhythm of true aliveness.
-
Savvy\ Savvy invites us to work with our energy wisely, not destructively — to choose thriving over proving.
-
Vitality\ Vitality flows when we stop draining ourselves for performance and start living from inner strength.
-
Inspired Action\ Inspired action arises from presence and aliveness, not adrenaline and depletion.

2025-05-15 12:53:31It’s not big government programs or powerful institutions that make a society strong. It’s something much simpler: everyday people trading and working together.
Think about the local hardware store owner. He helps his neighbors, gives people jobs, and provides useful tools. But when the government taxes him too much to fund its programs, it takes away money he could have used to hire someone or visit his family. That hurts both him and the people around him.
This happens all over. Small business owners, tradesmen, inventors and entrepreneurs are the ones who really build up a society. They create value by trading things people want, and both sides benefit. Free trade gives people more choices and helps them live better lives.
But from a young age, we’re told to obey authority without question. We’re taught that without rulers, there would be chaos. But what if that’s not true?
Look around the world: even when governments try to control trade, people still find ways to work together and exchange goods. It’s natural. People want to cooperate and help each other—especially when they’re free to do so.
Here’s the hard truth: if someone can take your money, control your property, and punish you without your agreement, isn’t that a kind of control—or even servitude?
True prosperity doesn’t come from the top down. It comes from people freely working together—farmers, builders, cooks, coders—offering their skills to others who need them.
When trade is free, people do well. When it’s blocked by too many rules or taxes, everyone loses—especially the ones who need help the most.
The answer isn’t more laws or more control. It’s more freedom. Next time someone says we need more government to fix things, ask yourself: wouldn’t free people solve those problems better on their own?
Real civilization isn’t about being ruled. It’s about choosing to work together, trade fairly, and respect each other’s rights. That’s not chaos—that’s freedom.

2025-05-16 05:38:28LegoGPT generates a LEGO structure from a user-provided text prompt in an end-to-end manner. Notably, our generated LEGO structure is physically stable and buildable.
Lego is something most of us knows. This is a opportuity to ask where is our creativity going? From the art of crafting figures to building blocks following our need and desires to have a machine thinking and building following step-by-step instructions to achieve an isolated goal.
Is the creative act then in the question itself, not anymore in the crafting? Are we just delegating the solution of problems, the thinking of how to respond to questions, to machines? Would it be different if delegated to other people?

2025-05-16 17:06:50Despite how many times Urbanists post a new bird's-eye view of a sprawling suburb filled with the same home copy and pasted 200 times by the same developer, the most recent estimates suggest just over half of Americans live in the suburbs. No matter how many times the isolated deep woods advocates call them stuffy conformists Americans continue to flock to their culture-less neighborhoods where everyone has the same .25 acres with a push mower and rarely used smoker.
So why do we have so many housing masochists in this country who chose to live in suburban hellscapes?
The argument is pretty obvious why most people don't live out in the sticks. America embracing the role of running the world's reserve currency forced them to hollow out the blue collar workforce we once had. We give the world dollars and the world gives us cheaper physical things. It has to be this way if you're to play the role of King Dollar. There aren't many tech jobs in eastern Kentucky or business gigs in western Kansas. There simply aren't enough American jobs for people to live in these places and if there were they wouldn't be rural for very long. You can't live somewhere you can't get to work from.
So why don't Americans flock to cities? Urbanists will tell you its an American mindset thing. They'll claim our country is addicted to sitting in our oversized SUVs in gridlock traffic for two hours a day. They'll say we're addicted to the status of living in a larger home with a yard or point to racism or an aversion to other cultures. In fact, they'll make up any reason to avoid talking about the fact that people want to feel safe where they live and don't want to worry about not being home when their Amazon package gets dropped on their steps.
The suburbs are the worst of both worlds. There are no premier coffee shops to walk to before work or food trucks with authentic empanadas you can snag on your 2AM stroll home from the local dive. The commute to work is 40 minutes. There's not much privacy so your neighbor can hear the sportsball conversation you're having in your backyard and the HOA says you can't paint your mailbox that color. Hardcore leftists can't imagine why you'd want to live in a place where leaving the house means getting in a car. Hardcore righties don't understand why anyone would want to live in a place that you have to deal with the rest of civilization. But yet here we are with the majority of the country fighting to live on commuter hell plots.
The reason so many want to live in the suburbs is because they're completely bland and sterile zones with long, but doable commutes. The main draw to the suburbs is still being close enough to work downtown, but not have to deal with downtown problems at home. If Urbanists were serious about convincing more folks to move to the city they'd face the fact that the vast majority of American cities have quality of life nuisances and crime that is unacceptable to most people, especially those with children, so living in a place that is harder to get to for criminals and has no outside draw to it sounds great. Most Americans will accept that their options to eat out are either Chili's or Olive Garden because it's better than worrying if the roving gang of armed 15 year old Kia Boys is going to choose them on their walk to the authentic Thai spot. Most Americans will deal with waiting in a half mile long 30 minute line to pick up their kid from school if it means they don't have to worry about them walking by the homeless guy lying in his own fluids at the train station on his way to class.
Until America returns to producing real goods and not dollars people will continue to choose the suburbs over rural areas and until cities stop pretending crime is just "part of living in the city" the suburban sprawl will continue to spread.

2025-05-16 17:00:09Today we’re launching Buzzbot Express: a clean, targeted way to drive engagement and reward your audience with sats.
Here’s how it works:
-
Tag @buzzbot express [amount] (e.g.,
@buzzbot express 5000
) -
Pay the invoice sent to your DMs
-
After 12 hours, one random liker and one random commenter each win **50% of the sats **(6% fee)
Since launching Buzzbot, we’ve seen a wide range of creative use cases. But the clearest path to long-term value may lie in branded content and decentralized promotion.
From plebs promoting value-for-value concerts to podcasters pushing new episodes, Buzzbot Express gives creators and brands a tool to generate real energy around a post.
Paying for engagement might feel off-brand to some, but if you’re promoting a product, a song, or an event, Buzzbot Express offers a clean, transparent way to generate real momentum.
The invention of Zaps opened the fifth dimension of social media. They are not just another feature added to the stack. They are an exponential amplifier that transforms attention into economic energy.
At Buzzbot, we believe this new creator economy can and should include advertisers.
The days of brands paying millions to ad firms, hiring Hollywood talent, and forcing campaigns into feeds are fading. That model made sense on centralized, algorithmic platforms, but it doesn’t belong on Nostr.
Instead, brands can spend that same money directly with creators who align with their values. Or better yet, they can reward audiences for engaging honestly.
That’s where Buzzbot comes in.
Buzzbot Express is a small step toward this future. Try it out — and let us know what you think.
Pay attention.

2025-05-14 06:48:45Has the architect Greg Chasen considered it when rebuilding the house just one year before the catastrophe? Apparently not! Another of his projects was featured on the Value of Architecture as properties with design integrity.
This is a super interesting subject. The historic character, livability, and modern disaster-resistance is a triangle where you often have to pick just one or two, which leads to some tough decisions that have major impacts on families and communities. Like one of the things he mentions is that the architect completely eliminated plants from the property. That's great for fire resistance, but not so great for other things if the entire town decides to go the same route (which he does bring up later in the video). I don't think there's any objectively right answer, but definitely lots of good (and important) discussion points to be had.

2025-05-16 14:54:18I soar all over the world, but one of the places I visit often is this little tiny square opening. I land softly on the platform and peer in through the hole. There’s a man inside; he seems to enjoy when I come by. His eyes light up and he gives me crumbs of bread to eat. The bread is tasty and fulfilling; it satisfies my hunger during my flights to other destinations. I wonder what it’s like to be man.
Man does strange things. I can’t fully understand. For example, this man is confined in a tiny box. He sits on what looks like a deformed tree, and in front of him is a tiny rectangular box. Everything man has is so boxy; it’s unnatural to me. When I fly from place to place, I don’t see any boxes; rather, I see a wiggly world. Endless shape, no two things look the same, but to man, it’s like he wants everything to be the same. Man usually is looking at other thin boxes; these are slim and have marks on them. He appears to stare for a long time at them, and then he sets them down and picks up another to stare at. In his box, he has long, narrow boxes. They hold small boxes bundled together with slim boxes. It gives me a headache seeing so many boxes. Once I observed man outside in the wiggly world, and when he left his big box, he went into another smaller box that moved! I was so interested I followed his moving box. You wouldn’t guess where he went to! Another box, but this one was a big one with subsections of smaller boxes. Could you believe they even have big boxes for water! What a headache man is.
The game man plays is interesting; it seems to be about boxes and how to put wiggly things in them. The wiggly is too elusive; one can’t box it up. Even if you surround the wiggly in a box, it will continue to wiggle. Like a tree confined to a planter box, its roots will spread beyond their confinement. Man is like this but believes the box will contain him, shameful.

2025-05-14 06:12:19We asked members of the design community to choose an artifact that embodies craft—something that speaks to their understanding of what it means to make with intention. Here’s what they shared.
A vintage puzzle box, a perfectly tuned guitar, an AI-powered poetry camera. A daiquiri mixed with precision. A spreadsheet that still haunts muscle memory. Each artifact tells a story: not just about the thing itself, but about the choices of the creator behind it. What to refine, what to leave raw. When to push forward, when to let go. Whether built to last for generations or designed to delight in a fleeting moment, the common thread is that great craft doesn’t happen by accident. It’s made.
On the application of craft
Even the most experienced makers can benefit from building structure and intention into their practice. From sharpening your storytelling to designing quality products, these pieces offer practical ways to uplevel your craft.

2025-05-15 02:04:26Bottom-up Load-balancing for Nostr Relays
Goal: protect your relay by distributing clients more evenly across all relays without top-down coordination.
The problem
Nostr relays are a public good with the costs borne by benevolent volunteers running them. So far this system has been robust, supporting tens of thousands of active users per month. There is some low-key evidence of strain on these servers (see below) and overload could become a bigger problem as the network grows, attracts spammers, griefers, and other bad actors. It could become expensive to run the most popular relays even under ideal conditions with conscientious users.
The main strategies employed by relays to mitigate overload currently are a) throttling requests b) pre-set PoW c) authentication of some form, with throttling being common on popular servers. Throttling is an opaque strategy where client apps only receive the kill signal once they have been throttled. Pre-set PoW is exclusionary to most clients that don't implement it, and authentication is centralizing.
The current strategy employed by clients for selecting relays is for client apps to choose a set of default relays, and for users to modify those defaults manually in the UI. This results in natural aggregation of clients on the more popular relays. This concentrates load on a smaller number of relays and is centralizing.
A solution
A solution that helps both clients and relays is to make the relay overload signal legible.
Our proposal is simple:
- Relay software measures common load utilization percentage metrics like cpu, memory, and disk.
- Overloaded relays publish their current load expressed as a proof-of-work requirement (NIP-11).
- Clients upon seeing the proof-of-work requirement can do the PoW or switch relays (NIP-13, NIP-01).
This sets up a basic PoW market where "prices" help "consumers" decide where to allocate their "capital" (events with proof-of-work tokens). The likely effect is that clients will automatically re-distribute their traffic away from "expensive" overloaded relays towards "cheap" underloaded relays, making the entire network healthier.
The new thing here is tying PoW to load. Existing NIPs cover most of the PoW part of the soultion. NIP-11 covers publishing of PoW requirements by relays. NIP-13 and NIP-01 cover clients performing PoW and relays reacting to it.
A pleasant side-effect of using PoW as the load signal is that would-be spammers are forced to pay an actual cost in the form of energy expenditure and hardware.
How to participate
Participation is opt-in. Any relay or client can participate in this scheme if they want to try it out, or ignore it if they don't. It doesn't require large scale changes to the protocol.
Relay implementation
To participate in this protocol relays would make these changes:
- Collect load metrics.
- Publish PoW requirements (NIP-11).
- Check PoW on incoming client events (NIP-13, NIP-01).
Collecting load metrics is straightforward. Relays can collect CPU loadavg, memory usage (averaged), and disk utilization as percentages. We suggest the final load percentage value should be:
max(cpu%, mem%, disk%)
as a starting point. The reason for usingmax()
is that problems arise if any of your resources is exhausted, so we should rely on the most exhausted resource as the actual load value.PoW required can be calculated (see section below) by using a sensible starting point for tolerable load - the
zero-PoW-load
point. Amax-bits
diffculty can be specified for the 100% load point. Thezero-PoW-load
value is the load percentage up until which the relay is comfortable offering connections "free" without requring any PoW. This situation would be the same as it is currently with clients able to freely connect to most relays. Once thezero-PoW-load
is reached the server would start publishing a number of bits of PoW required using NIP-11. The PoW required would scale up with the load experienced. Of coursezero-PoW-load
can be set low to facilitate early PoW market signals.New metrics that relays care about can be added to the calculation in future without clients caring. Other metrics could be used such as percent of available TCP/websocket connection slots used, or actual server rental costs vs. maximum cost a volunteer will bear.
Validating PoW on incoming client events is something that has already been discussed and implemented in relays. See NIPs 11, 13, and 01.

is a setting for the minimum load percentage where PoW should kick in with 1 bit of PoW. 80% could be a sensible starting point. Operators of popular relays can use their own historical data to determine this.max_bits
is set to the highest PoW clients will have to do when server load goes near 100%. This can be calibrated to some value like 1 hour of PoW on an average modern device. It's not expected clients will actually perform this but it sets the scale, and it should prevent highly resourced spammers from 100% utilization of any relay.current_load
is the computed maximum of all of the load metric percentages gathered.
Then the formula for calculating the required PoW bits is:
pow_bits_required = max_bits * max(0, (current_load - zero_pow_load) / (100 - zero_pow_load))
Since PoW increases logarithmically (each bit being exponentially harder than the last) some scaling function may be required to smooth this off.
Client implementation
These are the changes clients would make to participate in this protocol.
- Select relays based on PoW (favour PoW-cheap + known reliable relays).
- Do PoW if connecting to overloaded servers (NIP-11 and NIP-13).
Selecting relays for the user then might mean keeping a larger list of potential default relays and selecting a subset at setup time based on PoW requirements. It might also mean actively monitoring for high-PoW relays and switching away if a relay is frequently expensive.
It is in a client's best interest to select a low-PoW underloaded set of relays to publish to, whilst still favouring known-reliable relays. If the whole network becomes loaded then PoW acts as a deterrent for non-critical use and spammers. Only the most commited clients and users will participate. It can also be a transparent signal to the community that more relays are required.
Addenda
So that's the main specification of the scheme. The following are related addenda.
Evidence of strain
Some random low-key evidence of strain on relays, and worries about the costs of running them.

TODO: sample some nostr events/users randomly from the firehose and get stats on relay centralization.
More weird PoW ideas
One thing not covered in NIPs is PoW-on-connect which could help in future if there are malicious clients camping on websockets.
Another idea is building PoW into npubs, similar to vanitygen, which would put some skin-in-the-game onto users when creating keys. Some relays may choose only to service high PoW npubs that have proven their commitment to the network and protocol.
On resource rationing
Some ways to ration unexpectedly demanded goods in an emergency:
(1) market prices ("price gouging") (2) waiting in line (3) centrally planned rationing (4) don't ration: just let the resource run out
Market prices are a least-worst business-as-usual option.

@ 8d34bd24:414be32b
2025-05-14 14:31:54In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve spent a lot of time reading Revelation lately. Last night, I was reading the letters to the seven churches in Revelation. It got me thinking about the church or churches today.
“To the angel of the church in Laodicea write:
The Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God, says this:
‘I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot. So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of My mouth. Because you say, “I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing,” and you do not know that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see. Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me. He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’ ” (Revelation 3:14-22)
Sadly the church in Revelation, that the majority of American churches most closely resembles, is the church in Laodicea. (FYI, like most large generalizations, there are exceptions, of course)
Last I heard, America still had the most churches, Christian book stores, Christian radio stations, etc., but is America still the most Christian? I strongly have my doubts. Most modern, American churches seem to be more about socialization, entertainment, and making people feel good about themselves, even if what they really need is repentance. I even have doubts that many institutions that call themselves churches are churches (as defined by God) or have any true believers as members.
‘I know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich), and the blasphemy by those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan. (Revelation 2:9)
Although this verse is referring to those who call themselves Jews and are not, I think we are seeing those who say they are Christians and are not, but are a church of Satan. Of course this is definitely not true of all churches.
The most common thing I see, though, is the lukewarm churches, where members show up on Sunday, check that off their list, and then go on living life like everyone else around them. Surveys show that rates of divorce, abortion, and other anti-biblical choices are as common among self-proclaimed Christians as among those who claim no faith.
These churches hear the Bible, but don’t hunger for the Word of God. They listen to God’s commands, but don’t live them out in their daily lives. Just like the Pharisees, they have the trappings of religion, but not the spirit of God. Worship is singing along with a rock band rather than falling on their face in awe of their Creator.
Just like what was predicted:
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths. (2 Timothy 4:3-4) {emphasis mine}
Church services become self-help services. The word of God gets subverted by culture and “science.” Some church leaders intentionally ignore certain passages and take others out of context, so they will be popular and have growth. Sadly a growth in “butts in seats” is not what matters, if it isn’t accompanied by a growth in trust in Jesus and a growth in discipleship. These churches give a lot of people the false hope that they will be going to Heaven when they die. They will be shocked to hear “I never knew you.”
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’ (Matthew 7:21-23) {emphasis mine}
Like the church in Laodicea, the church in America is rich in material wealth compared to others. Like the church in Laodicea, the American church relies too much on their wealth and freedom instead of putting their faith in God through good times and bad. Like the church in Laodicea, the American church has the trappings of faith without the reality of faith as shown by works (lifestyle). Most unfortunately, like the church in Laodicea, the American church is full of people who will almost certainly hear “I never knew you.”
What does Jesus say the solution is? “Be zealous and repent.”
Nothing in life should be more important to us than our relationship with our Creator and Savior. If we’ve relegated Him to the margins, we need to repent. We need to turn back to God and seek Him first.
Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear for clothing?’ For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (Matthew 6:31-33) {emphasis mine}
Even if we aren’t actively doing evil, it is so easy to get distracted by life and not include God in our lives. Instead of God being just someone who we worship for and hour or two on Sunday morning and pray to at meals, He should be our guiding force for all things in our lives. He should be our focus and guiding light. We should long for His word and study the Bible daily. We should seek His guidance in decisions big and small. We should interact with others with the same goals and love as Jesus did when He was living a mortal life on earth. Our lives should look different.
I love what was said about Jesus’s disciples:
Now as they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus. (Acts 4:13) {emphasis mine}
I want everyone who meets me to see Jesus in me and recognize that I have been with Jesus. Do you? Or do you want to blend in and look like those around you because that is easier and more comfortable?
Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness, and in your godliness, brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they render you neither useless nor unfruitful in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For he who lacks these qualities is blind or short-sighted, having forgotten his purification from his former sins. Therefore, brethren, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choosing you; for as long as you practice these things, you will never stumble; for in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be abundantly supplied to you. (2 Peter 1:5-11) {emphasis mine}
Peter gives some good advice on becoming more Christ-like and fruitful. He tells us to apply all diligence in:
-
faith
-
moral excellence
-
perseverance
-
godliness
-
brotherly kindness
-
love
He tells us that lacking these traits is “blind or short-sighted” and leads to us being unfruitful and useless. I don’t know about you, but I do NOT want Jesus to think of me as useless.
May the God of heaven increase your faith, grow your desire to know God through prayer and study of His Word, and help you to live the life you were designed to live. May he help you to avoid worldly distractions and to have the strength to stand firm on the foundation of Jesus especially when this means you have to stand up against the crowd. May you be fruitful and useful all of the days of your life.
Trust Jesus.

2025-05-14 05:56:15Shanghai: Bus Stops Here
A new crowd-sourced transit platform allows riders to propose, vote on, and activate new bus lines in as little as three days.
From early-morning school drop-offs to seniors booking rides to the hospital, from suburban commuters seeking a faster link to the metro to families visiting ancestral graves, Shanghai is rolling out a new kind of public bus — one that’s designed by commuters, and launched only when enough riders request it.
Branded “DZ” for dingzhi, or “customized,” the system invites residents to submit proposed routes through a city-run platform. Others with similar travel needs can opt in or vote, and if demand meets the threshold — typically 15 to 20 passengers per trip — the route goes live.
More than 220 DZ routes have already launched across all 16 city districts. Through an online platform opened May 8, users enter start and end points, preferred times, and trip frequency. If approved, routes can begin running in as little as three days.

via me
It seems like every other day there's another company announced that is going public with the intent of competing with Strategy by leveraging capital markets to create financial instruments to acquire Bitcoin in a way that is accretive for shareholders. This is certainly a very interesting trend, very bullish for bitcoin in the short-term, and undoubtedly making it so bitcoin is top of mind in the mainstream. I won't pretend to know whether or not these strategies will ultimately be successful or fail in the short, medium or long term. However, one thing I do know is that the themes that interest me, both here at TFTC and in my role as Managing Partner at Ten31, are companies that are building good businesses that are efficient, have product-market-fit, generate revenues and profits and roll those profits into bitcoin.
While it seems pretty clear that Strategy has tapped into an arbitrage that exists in capital markets, it's not really that exciting. From a business perspective, it's actually pretty straightforward and simple; find where potential arbitrage opportunities exists between pools of capital looking for exposure to spot bitcoin or bitcoin's volatility but can't buy the actual asset, and provide them with products that give them access to exposure while simultaneously creating a cult-like retail following. Rinse and repeat. To the extent that this strategy is repeatable is yet to be seen. I imagine it can expand pretty rapidly. Particularly if we have a speculative fervor around companies that do this. But in the long run, I think the signal is falling back to first principles, looking for businesses that are actually providing goods and services to the broader economy - not focused on the hyper-financialized part of the economy - to provide value and create efficiencies that enable higher margins and profitability.
With this in mind, I think it's important to highlight the combined leverage that entrepreneurs have by utilizing bitcoin treasuries and AI tools that are emerging and becoming more advanced by the week. As I said in the tweet above, there's never been a better time to start a business that finds product-market fit and cash flows quickly with a team of two to three people. If you've been reading this rag over the last few weeks, you know that I've been experimenting with these AI tools and using them to make our business processes more efficient here at TFTC. I've also been using them at Ten31 to do deep research and analysis.
It has become abundantly clear to me that any founder or entrepreneur that is not utilizing the AI tools that are emerging is going to get left behind. As it stands today, all anyone has to do to get an idea from a thought in your head to the prototype stage to a minimum viable product is to hop into something like Claude or ChatGPT, have a brief conversation with an AI model that can do deep research about a particular niche that you want to provide a good service to and begin building.
Later this week, I will launch an app called Opportunity Cost in the Chrome and Firefox stores. It took me a few hours of work over the span of a week to ideate and iterate on the concept to the point where I had a working prototype that I handed off to a developer who is solving the last mile problem I have as an "idea guy" of getting the product to market. Only six months ago, accomplishing something like this would have been impossible for me. I've never written a line of code that's actually worked outside of the modded MySpace page I made back in middle school. I've always had a lot of ideas but have never been able to effectively communicate them to developers who can actually build them. With a combination of ChatGPT-03 and Replit, I was able to build an actual product that works. I'm using it in my browser today. It's pretty insane.
There are thousands of people coming to the same realization at the same time right now and going out there and building niche products very cheaply, with small teams, they are getting to market very quickly, and are amassing five figures, six figures, sometimes seven figures of MRR with extremely high profit margins. What most of these entrepreneurs have not really caught on to yet is that they should be cycling a portion - in my opinion, a large portion - of those profits into bitcoin. The combination of building a company utilizing these AI tools, getting it to market, getting revenue and profits, and turning those profits into bitcoin cannot be understated. You're going to begin seeing teams of one to ten people building businesses worth billions of dollars and they're going to need to store the value they create, any money that cannot be debased.
nostr:nprofile1qyx8wumn8ghj7cnjvghxjmcpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqqgy8fkmd9kmm8yp4lea2cx0g8fyz27g4ud7572j4edx2v6lz6aa23qmp5dth , one of the co-founders of Ten31, wrote about this in early 2024, bitcoin being the fourth lever of equity value growth for companies.
Bitcoin Treasury - The Fourth Lever to Equity Value Growth
We already see this theme playing out at Ten31 with some of our portfolio companies, most notably nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jqjrm2qp , which recently released some of their financials, highlighting the fact that they're extremely profitable with high margins and a relatively small team (\~75). This is extremely impressive, especially when you consider the fact that they're a global company competing with the likes of Coinbase and Block, which have each thousands of employees.
Even those who are paying attention to the developments in the AI space and how the tools can enable entrepreneurs to build faster aren't really grasping the gravity of what's at play here. Many are simply thinking of consumer apps that can be built and distributed quickly to market, but the ways in which AI can be implemented extend far beyond the digital world. Here's a great example of a company a fellow freak is building with the mindset of keeping the team small, utilizing AI tools to automate processes and quickly push profits into bitcoin.
via Cormac
Again, this is where the exciting things are happening in my mind. People leveraging new tools to solve real problems to drive real value that ultimately produce profits for entrepreneurs. The entrepreneurs who decide to save those profits in bitcoin will find that the equity value growth of their companies accelerates exponentially as they provide more value, gain more traction, and increase their profits while also riding the bitcoin as it continues on its monetization phase. The compounded leverage of building a company that leverages AI tools and sweeps profits into bitcoin is going to be one of the biggest asymmetric plays of the next decade. Personally, I also see it as something that's much more fulfilling than the pure play bitcoin treasury companies that are coming to market because consumers and entrepreneurs are able to recive and provide a ton of value in the real economy.
If you're looking to stay on top of the developments in the AI space and how you can apply the tools to help build your business or create a new business, I highly recommend you follow somebody like Greg Isenberg, whose Startup Ideas Podcast has been incredibly valuable for me as I attempt to get a lay of the land of how to implement AI into my businesses.
America's Two Economies
In my recent podcast with Lyn Alden, she outlined how our trade deficits create a cycle that's reshaping America's economic geography. As Alden explained, US trade deficits pump dollars into international markets, but these dollars don't disappear - they return as investments in US financial assets. This cycle gradually depletes industrial heartlands while enriching financial centers on the coasts, creating what amounts to two separate American economies.
"We're basically constantly taking economic vibrancy out of Michigan and Ohio and rural Pennsylvania where the steel mills were... and stuffing it back into financial assets in New York and Silicon Valley." - nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytndv9kxjm3wdahxcqg5waehxw309ahx7um5wfekzarkvyhxuet5qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncdhu7e3
This pattern has persisted for over four decades, accelerating significantly since the early 1980s. Alden emphasized that while economists may argue there's still room before reaching a crisis point, the political consequences are already here. The growing divide between these two Americas has fueled populist sentiment as voters who feel left behind seek economic rebalancing, even if they can't articulate the exact mechanisms causing their hardship.

@ 472f440f:5669301e
2025-05-16 00:18:45Marty's Bent
It's been a pretty historic week for the United States as it pertains to geopolitical relations in the Middle East. President Trump and many members of his administration, including AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, traveled across the Middle East making deals with countries like Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Syria, and others. Many are speculating that Iran may be included in some behind the scenes deal as well. This trip to the Middle East makes sense considering the fact that China is also vying for favorable relationships with those countries. The Middle East is a power player in the world, and it seems pretty clear that Donald Trump is dead set on ensuring that they choose the United States over China as the world moves towards a more multi-polar reality.
Many are calling the events of this week the Riyadh Accords. There were many deals that were struck in relation to artificial intelligence, defense, energy and direct investments in the United States. A truly prolific power play and demonstration of deal-making ability of Donald Trump, if you ask me. Though I will admit some of the numbers that were thrown out by some of the countries were a bit egregious. We shall see how everything plays out in the coming years. It will be interesting to see how China reacts to this power move by the United States.
While all this was going on, there was something happening back in the United States that many people outside of fringe corners of FinTwit are not talking about, which is the fact that the 10-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yields are back on the rise. Yesterday, they surpassed the levels of mid-April that caused a market panic and are hovering back around levels that have not been seen since right before Donald Trump's inauguration.
I imagine that there isn't as much of an uproar right now because I'm pretty confident the media freakouts we were experiencing in mid-April were driven by the fact that many large hedge funds found themselves off sides of large levered basis trades. I wouldn't be surprised if those funds have decreased their leverage in those trades and bond yields being back to mid-April levels is not affecting those funds as much as they were last month. But the point stands, the 10-year and 30-year yields are significantly elevated with the 30-year approaching 5%. Regardless of the deals that are currently being made in the Middle East, the Treasury has a big problem on its hands. It still has to roll over many trillions worth of debt over over the next few years and doing so at these rates is going to be massively detrimental to fiscal deficits over the next decade. The interest expense on the debt is set to explode in the coming years.
On that note, data from the first quarter of 2025 has been released by the government and despite all the posturing by the Trump administration around DOGE and how tariffs are going to be beneficial for the U.S. economy, deficits are continuing to explode while the interest expense on the debt has definitively surpassed our annual defense budget.

via Mohamed Al-Erian
To make matters worse, as things are deteriorating on the fiscal side of things, the U.S. consumer is getting crushed by credit. The 90-plus day delinquency rates for credit card and auto loans are screaming higher right now.
via TXMC
One has to wonder how long all this can continue without some sort of liquidity crunch. Even though equities markets have recovered from their post-Liberation Day month long bear market, I would not be surprised if what we're witnessing is a dead cat bounce that can only be continued if the money printers are turned back on. Something's got to give, both on the fiscal side and in the private markets where the Common Man is getting crushed because he's been forced to take on insane amounts of debt to stay afloat after years of elevated levels of inflation. Add on the fact that AI has reached a state of maturity that will enable companies to replace their current meat suit workers with an army of cheap, efficient and fast digital workers and it isn't hard to see that some sort of employment crisis could be on the horizon as well.
Now is not the time to get complacent. While I do believe that the deals that are currently being made in the Middle East are probably in the best interest of the United States as the world, again, moves toward a more multi-polar reality, we are facing problems that one cannot simply wish away. They will need to be confronted. And as we've seen throughout the 21st century, the problems are usually met head-on with a money printer.
I take no pleasure in saying this because it is a bit uncouth to be gleeful to benefit from the strife of others, but it is pretty clear to me that all signs are pointing to bitcoin benefiting massively from everything that is going on. The shift towards a more multi-polar world, the runaway debt situation here in the United States, the increasing deficits, the AI job replacements and the consumer credit crisis that is currently unfolding, All will need to be "solved" by turning on the money printers to levels they've never been pushed to before.
Weird times we're living in.
China's Manufacturing Dominance: Why It Matters for the U.S.
In my recent conversation with Lyn Alden, she highlighted how China has rapidly ascended the manufacturing value chain. As Lyn pointed out, China transformed from making "sneakers and plastic trinkets" to becoming the world's largest auto exporter in just four years. This dramatic shift represents more than economic success—it's a strategic power play. China now dominates solar panel production with greater market control than OPEC has over oil and maintains near-monopoly control of rare earth elements crucial for modern technology.
"China makes like 10 times more steel than the United States does... which is relevant in ship making. It's relevant in all sorts of stuff." - Lyn Alden
Perhaps most concerning, as Lyn emphasized, is China's financial leverage. They hold substantial U.S. assets that could be strategically sold to disrupt U.S. treasury market functioning. This combination of manufacturing dominance, resource control, and financial leverage gives China significant negotiating power in any trade disputes, making our attempts to reshoring manufacturing all the more challenging.

2025-05-15 17:18:25USA és Szaúd-Arábia együttműködik a nukleáris energiában, beleértve a fejlett reaktorokat is
Az Egyesült Államok és Szaúd-Arábia 2025. május 13-án Rijádban aláírt egy energiaügyi és kritikus ásványi anyagokra vonatkozó együttműködési megállapodást, amelynek részeként a polgári nukleáris energia területén is kijelölték az együttműködés főbb területeit. Az USA Energiaügyi Minisztériuma szerint a kooperáció kiterjed a biztonságra, védelmi és non-proliferációs programokra, az amerikai III+ generációs fejlett nagy reaktortechnológiákra és kis moduláris reaktorokra, valamint az uránkutatásra, bányászatra és feldolgozásra.
További területek a szakképzés, munkaerő-fejlesztés és a nukleáris hulladékkezelés. Chris Wright energiaügyi miniszter szerint ezek a megállapodások erős partnerséget teremtenek, amelyek biztosítják Donald Trump elnök „belföldi jólét és külföldi béke” víziójának megvalósulását. Trump első jelentős külföldi útján látogat Szaúd-Arábiába és más arab országokba második elnöki ciklusában. Wright az energiaügyi együttműködési megállapodást Abdulaziz bin Salman Al Saud szaúdi energiaügyi miniszterrel írta alá. Az USA szerint a megállapodás célja az innováció, fejlesztés és az energetikai infrastruktúra kiépítésének lehetőségeinek feltárása a két országban.
Az USA és Szaúd-Arábia tárgyalásokat folytat a királyság polgári nukleáris iparának fejlesztéséről, de a tárgyalásokat régiós politikai kérdések és a fegyverkezési aggodalmak bonyolítják. Wright múlt hónapban azt mondta, várhatóan előzetes megállapodást írnak alá, és Rijád valamint Washington „úton van” egy közös szaúdi polgári nukleáris program kidolgozásához. „Az USA részvételéhez és partnerségéhez mindenképp szükség lesz egy 123-as megállapodásra... sokféleképpen lehet úgy szerződni, hogy az megfeleljen mind a szaúdi, mind az amerikai céloknak” – mondta Wright.
A 123-as megállapodás útja
Az úgynevezett 123-as megállapodás az USA 1954-es Atomenergia-törvényének 123. szakaszára utal, amely szükséges ahhoz, hogy az amerikai kormány és cégek együtt dolgozhassanak a királyság entitásaival polgári nukleáris ipar fejlesztésén. Wright szerint a szaúdi hatóságok még nem egyeztek bele a törvény által előírt feltételekbe, amely kilenc non-proliferációs kritériumot határoz meg annak érdekében, hogy az adott állam ne használhassa fel a technológiát nukleáris fegyverek fejlesztésére, vagy ne adhassa át érzékeny anyagokat másoknak.
A tárgyalások eddig azért is akadoztak, mert Szaúd-Arábia nem akarta kizárni az urándúsítás vagy a kiégett fűtőelemek újrafeldolgozásának lehetőségét – mindkettő potenciális út egy atombomba felé. Mohamed bin Szalmán koronaherceg régóta hangoztatja, hogy ha Irán nukleáris fegyvert fejleszt, Szaúd-Arábia is követni fogja. A világ legnagyobb olajexportőre, Szaúd-Arábia jelentős megújuló energia előállítására és kibocsátáscsökkentésre törekszik a koronaherceg Vision 2030 reformprogramja keretében, amelyben a nukleáris energia is szerepet kap.
2022-ben Szaúd-Arábia létrehozta a Nemzeti Nukleáris Energia Társaságot, hogy fejlessze és üzemeltesse a nukleáris létesítményeket. A királyság akkor kezdte meg az első atomerőművi engedélyeztetési folyamatot, amely a hírek szerint mintegy 14 milliárd dollárba (12,2 milliárd euróba) kerülhet. Helyi média szerint a tervezett atomerőmű kapacitása 2800 GW lesz. Korábbi jelentések szerint Dél-Korea, Franciaország, Kína és Oroszország is adott be ajánlatot, de ezt hivatalosan nem erősítették meg.
Tajvan: Az utolsó atomerőmű bezárására készülve módosítják a törvényt
Tajvan parlamentje elfogadott egy módosítást a nukleáris energia törvényében, amely lehetővé teszi az üzemeltetők számára, hogy a jelenlegi 40 éves korlátozáson túl további 20 évre hosszabbítsák meg az atomerőművi engedélyeket, így akár 60 évig is működhet egy reaktor. Az állami Central News Agency szerint a módosítást az ellenzéki Kuomintang és a Tajvani Néppárt támogatta, 60 igen és 51 nem szavazattal, a kormányzó Demokratikus Progresszív Párt ellenében.
A javaslat célja a nukleáris energia újbóli bevonása Tajvan energiastratégiájába. A Nukleáris Biztonsági Tanács szerint minden hosszabbítási kérelemnek meg kell felelnie a nemzetközi szabványoknak, és alapos műszaki és jogi értékelésen kell átesnie. A lépésre azután kerül sor, hogy a kormány a hétvégén véglegesen bezárja a Maanshan-2 atomerőművet Pingtung megyében, ezzel teljesítve Tajvan nukleárismentességi ígéretét.
Kuo Jyh-huei gazdasági miniszter megerősítette, hogy a Maanshan-2 hosszabbítása akár 18 hónapot is igénybe vehet. A kormány szerint a módosítás nem változtatja meg a Maanshan-2 bezárásának tervét. 2024 júliusában a Taipower állami vállalat leállította a Maanshan-1 atomerőművet, így az országban már csak egy reaktor, a Maanshan-2 maradt üzemben.
A sziget energiaigénye – főként a félvezetőipar miatt – gyorsan nő, ami újraéleszti a nukleáris energia körüli vitát. A gazdasági minisztérium szerint az ország villamosenergia-szükséglete 2030-ra várhatóan 12-13%-kal nő, főként a mesterséges intelligencia (AI) iparág fellendülése miatt. A Greenpeace szerint a világ legnagyobb chipgyártója, a Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company 2030-ra önmagában annyi áramot fog fogyasztani, mint a sziget 23 milliós lakosságának negyede.
Az energiaéhség nehezíti Tajpej 2050-re kitűzött nettó zéró kibocsátási vállalását, amely nagyrészt a megújuló energia részarányának 60-70%-ra emelésén alapul a jelenlegi 12%-ról. A nukleáris energia támogatói szerint ez a legéletképesebb módja Tajvan ipari és környezetvédelmi céljainak összehangolására. 2023-ban a nukleáris energia a tajvani villamosenergia-termelés 6,9%-át adta, míg a fő energiaforrások a szén és a cseppfolyósított földgáz voltak. A Maanshan-1 bezárásával a nukleáris energia aránya 2,8%-ra csökken.
Egykor hat reaktor biztosította Tajvan áramellátásának több mint felét.
„Nagyon nyitottak” az új nukleáris technológiára
Tavaly év végén Cho Jung-tai tajvani miniszterelnök kijelentette, hogy az ország „nagyon nyitott” az új nukleáris technológiák alkalmazására, hogy kielégítse a chipgyártók és az AI ipar növekvő áramigényét. „Amíg konszenzus van a nukleáris biztonságról és megfelelő garanciák vannak a hulladékkezelésre, nyilvános vitát lehet folytatni” – mondta Cho a Bloombergnek adott interjúban. Ez az egyik legerősebb jele annak, hogy a kormány újragondolja a kereskedelmi atomerőművekkel szembeni ellenállását.
Cho vélhetően fejlett reaktorokra, köztük kis moduláris reaktorokra (SMR) utalt, amelyeket számos országban fejlesztenek. Tajvan Nemzeti Atomkutató Intézete a héten indított egy 3,3 millió dolláros SMR kutatási projektet, amely utat nyithat a fejlett nukleáris reaktorok bevezetése előtt.
Új építés
Az amerikai EnergySolutions megkezdi a fejlett nukleáris projektek tervezését a wisconsini Kewaunee atomerőmű helyszínén. A cég a WEC Energy Grouppal együttműködve vizsgálja az új nukleáris termelés lehetőségét a helyszínen, és most helyszíni és környezeti tanulmányokat indít az NRC engedélyek megszerzése érdekében.
Ken Robuck, az EnergySolutions elnök-vezérigazgatója szerint az adatközpontok, a mesterséges intelligencia és az ipari növekedés által hajtott energiaigény miatt soha nem volt még ekkora szükség megbízható, szén-dioxid-mentes energiára. Az EnergySolutions 2022-ben vásárolta meg a 2013-ban leállított, jelenleg leszerelés alatt álló Kewaunee erőművet. Wisconsin egyetlen működő atomerőműve a Point Beach, amely az állam villamosenergia-termelésének 16,5%-át adja.
Elemzés: A brit nukleáris munkaerőnek „jelentősen” bővülnie kell
Az Egyesült Királyságban a kormány és az iparág közös szervezete, a Destination Nuclear sikeresen vonzza a szükséges szakembereket a nukleáris tervekhez, de figyelmeztet, hogy a munkaerőnek „jelentősen” bővülnie kell. Az országban jelenleg 96 000 fő dolgozik a nukleáris szektorban, de 2030-ra 120 000-re lesz szükség, vagyis hat év alatt 24 000 fővel kell bővíteni az állományt.
A program célja, hogy a civil és védelmi nukleáris szektorban is vonzóvá tegye a pályát, különös tekintettel a kritikus készségekre, például a hegesztésre, biztonsági mérnökökre, projekttervezőkre és sugárvédelmi szakemberekre. A kampány digitális hirdetésekkel, on-demand TV-n (pl. Netflix), és az online Minecraft játékon keresztül is igyekszik elérni a potenciális munkavállalókat. Az első eredmények szerint 52%-kal nőtt azok aránya, akik korábban nem gondoltak a nukleáris pályára, de most már fontolóra veszik. A szektor már most is több tízezer munkahelyet biztosít, és 2050-re akár 70 milliárd fonttal járulhat hozzá a brit gazdasághoz.

Developer SHIFT UP has announced that their latest titled, Stellar Blade, that was released on PS5 on the 2024, will release on PC via Steam and EGS on the 11th of June 2025.
The game will be priced at $60, and $80 for the edition of the game that includes the 'Twin Expansion Pack', which includes the NieR: Automata DLC and the Goddess of Victory: Nikke DLC, and a key to redeem a Stellar Blade costume in the developer's previous Free-to-Play title Goddess of Victory: Nikke.
The trailer released to announce said release date also showcases the changes the made for the game and highlight PC specific enhancements, support, and options.
It's worth noting, in terms of negative news that tagged along with this, that the game will have Denuvo running, which there are evidence that decreases a game's performance, and may prevent you from playing the game offline. The game will also have an optional PSN account login, and because of this, the game is not available for purchase in around 130 countries. There's also an exclusive outfit locked behind a PSN-to-Steam account linking.

2025-05-13 16:47:48(Textículo em prosa erudita sobre a Ideologia Anarco-Capitalista-Cristã)
https://davipinheiro.com/01-escravos-da-cara-inchada/
A cultura #Woke apropriou-se da imagem sobre a #escravidão. Quando uma pessoa aculturada imagina um #escravo, vem em sua mente a imagem de um ser humano negro, magro e flagelado. Para quem enxerga além das cortinas da mentira, vem em sua mente a imagem de um ser humano de qualquer etnia, gordo e doente.
Democracia, péssimo regime de governo assim classificado pelo seu próprio idealizador: Platão em A República, é o grito da hienas de dentes arreganhados para ampliação do regime escravocrata fomentado pelos #GlobalistasSatanistas.
Um escravo da cara inchada é todo aquele ser humano ignorante inconsciente que alimenta esse sistema em troca de intoxicantes como flúor¹, cloro, glutamato monosódico, gordura trans, corantes, conservantes, refrigerantes, bebidas alcoólicas, psicotrópicos e remédios sintomáticos, tudo embrulhado com mentiras reiteradas.
Como consequência, após os 18 anos de idade o corpo do #EscravoDaCaraInchada sucumbe à tamanha intoxicação e passa a inchar, sendo fisicamente perceptível sua condição de escravo da cara inchada tanto à olho nú quando por reconhecimento facial de qualquer pseudo inteligência artificial.
O círculo vicioso da #EscravidaoDemocratica é tão simples e tosco como o “pão e circo romano”, Mesmo assim é muito difícil para o escravo da cara inchada perceber a própria condição tamanha é sua intoxicação física e mental.
Se um Anarco-Capitalista-Cristão (#Ancapcristão) chega para um escravo da cara inchada e explica sobre esses intoxicantes como instrumento de escravização, dificilmente o escravo da cara inchada irá acreditar pois diferentemente do antigo e aposentado chicote, o novo instrumento da escravidão não dói de imediato e os próprios efeitos da intoxicação impedem-no de raciocinar com clareza.
Portanto, para que os #GlobalistasSatanistas obtivessem sucesso na democratização da escravidão, tiveram que criar um chicote químico e uma ideologia favorável. Quanto às etapas utilizadas para formação dessa ideologia no inconsciente coletivo passo a elencar as 6 grandes mentiras em ordem cronológica:
(1ª etapa) Iluminismo: distanciamento de #Deus e seus ensinamentos, criação de sociedades secretas, exacerbação do ser humano perante o criador na tentativa de projetar o ser humano como seu próprio deus, tornando-o responsável sobre os rumos naturais do planeta. Assim formou-se a base ideológica para o materialismo, ambientalismo, feminismo, controle populacional e ideologia de gêneros;
(2ª etapa) Materialismo: perda do propósito espiritual e do sentido da vida², o que passa a importar são apenas as coisas materiais, acima inclusive do próprio ser humano. A perpetuação da espécie também fica em segundo plano. Assim formou-se a base ideológica para o ambientalismo, feminismo, controle populacional e ideologia de gêneros;
(3ª etapa) Ambientalismo: redução do ser humano à mero câncer do planeta superlotado, atribuído-lhe a responsabilidade por qualquer desastre natural. Assim formou-se a base ideológica para o controle populacional e ideologia de gêneros;
(4ª etapa) Feminismo: enfraquecimento do ser humano por meio da sua divisão em duas categorias: macho e fêmea, os quais são inimigos e não cooperadores. A ideia de igualdade de gêneros é tão antagônica que beira ao conflito cognitivo³: Eles querem separar para dizer que são iguais... Ora, como não pode haver diferenças entre os gêneros se eles são fisicamente e mentalmente diferentes? Nesse diapasão, mesmo não sendo os estados nacionais os arquitetos da escravidão democrática e sim meros fantoches dos globalistas satanistas, o voto feminino foi fundamental para aprovação de leis misândricas com o fito de acelerar a destruição da base familiar do escravo da cara inchada. Importante mencionar que a base familiar dos globalistas satanistas continua sendo patriarcal. Assim formou-se a base ideológica para o controle populacional e ideologia de gêneros;
(5ª etapa) Controle Populacional: “Crescei e multiplicai-vos” é o caralho, Deus não sabe de nada (Iluminismo), o que importa é o dinheiro e filho é caro (Materialismo), para que colocar mais um ser humano nesse planeta doente e superlotado (Ambientalismo), além disso o sexo oposto é meu inimigo (Feminismo). Essa é base ideológica que antecede a ideologia de Controle Populacional, ainda reforçada pela apologia à castração, já que em todas as mídias produzidas com patrocínio oculto de capital globalista satanista tentam normalizar a castração do homem (perda da capacidade de reprodução) desde em desenhos infantis até grandes produções cinematográficas, ora em tom de humor ora em tom de tortura. Assim os escravos da cara inchada do sexo masculino perderam sua identidade, essência e desejo de ser o que são, formando-se a base ideológica para o homossexualismo, ou seja, para a ideologia de gêneros.
(6ª etapa) Ideologia de Gêneros: É a cereja do bolo para os planos do Diabo (Anjo invejoso de Deus que quer destruir a maior criação: nós). Enquanto os globalistas satanistas, dentro de sua sábia ignorância, acreditam estarem chefiando a democratização da escravidão, na verdade também não passam de meros fantoches do Anjo Caído. Com a sexta e última etapa de mentiras para extinção da humanidade (#apocalipse) posta em prática através da Ideologia de Gêneros, fecha-se o ciclo vicioso de mentiras que se auto justificam: Se #Deus não presta, o que vale são os bens materiais, o ser humano é um câncer no planeta, o sexo oposto é inimigo e ter filhos é uma péssima ideia e ser homem másculo é crime, então ser #homossexual é a melhor opção, inclusive vamos castrar os meninos antes da puberdade sem o consentimento dos pais ou mães solo. Aqui também há uma grande bifurcação do círculo vicioso de mentiras, qual seja o gritante conflito cognitivo³: Se todos os homens deixarem de ser másculos, quem vai comer os #gays afeminados? Ou se todas as mulheres deixarem de ser femininas, quem as #sapatonas irão comer? E o pior, se todos passem a ser homossexuais quem vai perpetuar a espécie? Seremos extintos no lapso temporal de apenas uma geração, pois a fraudulenta medicina moderna jamais terá a capacidade de gerar bebês de chocadeira à tempo.
É interessante enxergar que mesmo os Globalistas Satanistas, dentro de sua sábia ignorância, acreditando estarem democratizando a escravidão em benefício próprio, na verdade apenas estão fomentando o apocalipse, ou seja sua própria extinção. Também não terão qualquer lugar especial no inferno, sinônimo de mal é mentira. Portanto os #GlobalistaSatanistas são meros fantoches do #Diabo enganador, tão submissos quanto o Escravo da Cara Inchada…
Interessante também enxergar que o livre arbítrio é uma condição obrigatória para independência da criação (anjo e ser humano). Todos somos livres para escolher entre o bem e o mal, se iremos ser escravos de #Deus ou escravos do Diabo. Se assim não fosse, inexistiria criação pois seríamos mera extensão da consciência do #Criador, em outras palavras: para que exista uma criação, essa deve ter a capacidade de decisão de forma independente, o chamado livre arbítrio.
Com base nisso, temos que não cabe à nos fazer qualquer revolução, tudo está normal, a luta entre o bem e o mal sempre irá existir pois um não existe sem o outro. Nos cabe apenas escolher o lado. Nesse contexto, tenho a seguinte mensagem destinada à você para encerrar o presente Textículo Anarco-Capitalista-Cristão:
------ > Se você for um ANARCO-CAPITALISTA-CRISTÃO passe esta palavra à diante para que a verdade atinja o maior número de ignorantes inconscientes possível;
------ > Se você for um GLOBALISTA SATANISTA, vai viver sua vida, desfrutar da própria fortuna e pare de ser fantoche o Diabo, mentiram para você: não terá qualquer lugar especial quando morrer;
------ > Se você for um ESCRAVO DA CARA INCHADA e não entendeu o que eu disse, por favor me pergunte ou debata comigo, terei o prazer em lhe ajudar a enxergar a verdade. Pare de trabalhar por dinheiro fiduciário, passe a aceitar #Monero e #Bitcoin em troca do seu trabalho, pois isso é o único jeito de sermos financeiramente livres, se tiver alguma dúvida sobre #criptomoedas me pergunte e terei o prazer e ensinar. Se ainda assim você se recusa a enxergar a verdade exposta aqui, por favor aceite #Monero e #Bitcoin quando for dar o seu cú. Ou melhor, cometa suicídio, já que você é um câncer no planeta, salve a natureza.

2025-05-16 13:15:47Willkommen zur Mitmachplattform: KI-Kompetenzen für die religionsbezogene Bildung
Diese Plattform ist ein offenes, gemeinschaftliches Lernmodul für alle, die KI-Kompetenzen im Kontext der religionsbezogenen Bildung entdecken, vertiefen und weitergeben möchten.
Hier können Religionslehrende, Hochschulangehörige und ehrenamtlich Engagierte gemeinsam Inhalte entwickeln, teilen und weiterentwickeln.
Was ist das Ziel?
Wir schaffen eine offene Lernumgebung, in der Materialien zu KI-Kompetenzen für Schule, Hochschule und außerschulische Jugendarbeit kollaborativ entstehen.
Die Plattform richtet sich an Lehrkräfte, Fortbildner:innen und Ehrenamtliche, die KI-Themen in der religiösen Bildung verantwortungsvoll erschließbar machen wollen.
Unser Kompetenzmodell
Im Zentrum steht ein Kreismodell mit vier Kompetenzbereichen, die auf drei Niveaustufen ausdifferenziert sind:
Verstehen, Anwenden, Reflektieren und Gestalten.
Diese Bereiche bauen aufeinander auf, beeinflussen sich gegenseitig und werden durch die zentrale Kompetenz AI Leadership verbunden.Im Zentrum steht ein Kreismodell mit vier Kompetenzbereichen, die auf drei Niveaustufen ausdifferenziert werden können:

Können wir nicht einfach glücklich sein? Nein.
Eine traumatisierte Gesellschaft kann nicht EINFACH glücklich sein, weil die Herzen verletzt sind.
„Ja, aber es gibt doch auch noch andere Probleme als Trauma“, kritisieren einige.
„Ich habe schließlich eine Familie und einen anstrengenden Job“, erklären andere.
„Für mich ist das eine abstrakte Diskussion, ein Luxusproblem“, geben manche zu bedenken.
„Eigentlich möchte ich mich mit dem Thema gar nicht beschäftigen“, sagen wenige, denken aber viele.
„Ich beschäftige mich lieber mit positiven Dingen“, ist die diplomatische Variante der Vermeidung dieses Themas.
Niemand redet gerne über Trauma, bis es an die eigene Tür klopft. Und dann ist guter Rat teuer. Dann würde man gerne reden, aber die anderen wollen immer noch nicht.
Niemand redet gerne über Trauma.
„Was heißt denn Anklopfen?“ Mit Anklopfen meine ich die Situationen, die jeder kennt. Gemeint sind ganz normale Lebenskrisen, die es mehrmals in jedem Leben gibt.
„Ist denn eine Lebenskrise gleichzusetzten mit einem Trauma?“ Nein, aber durch eine starke Lebenskrise kann ein altes Trauma wieder hochgespült werden, und das fühlt sich dann original so an, wie das Trauma, das man z.B. als Kind oder später im Leben erlebt hat.
Und das passiert in einer traumatisierten Gesellschaft ständig, nur nennen die Leute es nicht so. Niemand sagt: „Er oder sie hat ein aktiviertes Trauma.“
Hierzu habe ich eine Anekdote. Vor ein paar Monaten zog in das Nachbarhaus bei mir auf der Straße ein junger Mann ein. Das Haus war frisch renoviert worden. Es zogen zeitgleich mehrere junge Leute jeweils in eine Wohnung dieses Hauses ein. Die Stimmung im Haus war gut, weil alles neu und geschmackvoll gestaltet worden war und die Mieter gut zusammen passten. Dann merkten die Mieter und Nachbarn, dass es einem jungen Mann nicht gut ging. Er saß den ganzen Tag in der Wohnung, konnte sich zu nichts aufraffen. Er schaffte es nicht, sich Lebensmittel einzukaufen. Ein Freund kam regelmäßig vorbei und brachte ihm Essen. Eine ältere Nachbarin fragte nach einigen Monaten diesen Freund, was dem jungen Mann denn fehle, ob er eine Krankheit habe oder was denn los sei. Der Freund lachte und sagte nur einen Satz: „Er stirbt.“
Die Nachbarin erzählte mir das und schaute mich fragend an. Ich übersetzte ihr den Satz und meinte: „Er hat vermutlich Liebeskummer.“ Aber was ich wirklich dachte, war, dass er ein aktiviertes Trauma hatte, nur sagte ich das nicht zur Nachbarin. Nach mittlerweile zwei Jahren kommt der Freund immer noch regelmäßig und bringt dem jungen Mann Essen. Er kauft für ihn ein und kümmert sich um ihn.
Manche Menschen leiden sehr lange unter Verlusten, Zurückweisungen, Niederlagen, Verletzungen. Andere kommen nie auf die nächste Stufe, obwohl sie sich unaufhörlich anstrengen. Wieder andere haben alles und sind dennoch unzufrieden und in permanenter Angriffshaltung. All diese Phänomene dauern oft lange, manchmal sogar ein Leben lang. Meines Erachtens sind das aktivierte Traumen bzw. Traumen, die gut verschlossen dennoch im Unterbewusstsein gegen die eigene Person arbeiten.
Trauma hat viele Gesichter.
Es kommt bei den unmöglichsten Gelegenheiten zum Vorschein. Und oft erkennen wir es nicht als das, was es ist. Wir suchen den Grund im Außen, den es ja meist auch gibt. Nur ist der Grund nicht der Grund, sondern nur der Auslöser.
Auch ich bin einmal „gestorben“. Dieser Zustand dauerte über drei Jahre an. Deshalb klingelte es bei mir auch sofort im Ohr als die Nachbarin sagte, der Freund habe gesagt: „Er stirbt.“
Sprache ist wunderbar.
Wer beides schon mal erlebt hat, eine normale Trennung und eine schwere Trennung, einen normalen Arbeitsplatzwechsel oder einen dramatischen Jobverlust, ein geplatztes Geschäft oder einen geplatzten Lebenstraum, das Ende einer Freundschaft oder eine Kränkung, über die man noch nach 35 Jahren so berichtet, als ob es gestern gewesen wäre, der kennt den Unterschied in der Intensität der Gefühle. Manche Menschen erzählen immer wieder eine Geschichte, obwohl man sie schon kennt und auch sein Mitgefühl dazu ausgedrückt hat. Manche Menschen reden gar nicht mehr über eine bestimmte Sache, bis einem irgendwann von Dritten gesagt wird, dass man ihn oder sie besser nicht auf das Thema XYZ ansprechen sollte.
All das sind aktivierte Traumen, die noch weh tun, noch nicht verarbeitet sind. Es sind Dinge, die jedem von uns passieren können. Jeder erlebt im Leben partnerschaftliche Trennungen, geplatzte Geschäfte und Kränkungen am laufenden Meter, aber es „trifft“ einen nicht immer gleich. Und es trifft nicht nur die Sensiblen, sondern es trifft jeden, wenn der Punkt, an dem es trifft, wund ist. Der wunde Punkt macht jeden sensibel. Auch robuste Naturen haben einen wunden Punkt. Und wenn der getroffen wird, dann werden auch die härtesten Menschen butterweich. In einer traumatisierten Gesellschaft wird jeder so oft „getroffen“, wie es braucht, bis er sich dem Thema widmet. Wir alle haben diese frühen oder späten Traumen erlebt, die früher oder später erneut durch Krisen aktiviert werden. Und dann „sterben“ wir, zumindest gefühlt.
Denn Trauma ist immer existenziell.
Und aktiviertes Trauma ist bitte nicht zu verwechseln mit Depression. Es ist ein aktiviertes Trauma, das sich im Unterschied zur Depression sehr wach, lebendig und vor allem schmerzvoll anfühlt. Es fühlt sich an wie „damals“. Das versteht man, in der Situation steckend, komischerweise sofort, denn wir haben ein Schmerzgedächtnis. Wir können Düfte oder Musik ja auch sofort zuordnen, wenn sie uns an etwas erinnern. Mit Schmerz ist es ähnlich. Aber es fällt so schwer, darüber zu reden, weil es keiner versteht und weil es dafür meines Erachtens in unserer Sprache keine Worte gibt. Man versteht das erst, wenn man es selbst erlebt hat. Und dann reichen zwei Worte.
Die Baustelle HERZ versteht man erst, wenn man selbst ein aktiviertes Trauma erlebt, durchlebt hat, wenn man einmal „gestorben“ ist.
Heute kann ich an Äußerungen, die jemand macht, gut ablesen, ob jemand seine Baustelle HERZ bereits kennen gelernt hat oder nicht. Menschen, die das selbst noch nicht kennen gelernt haben, haben oft aufmunternde Sprüche wie „Das wird schon wieder. Jetzt lass den Kopf mal nicht hängen.“ Das hilft einem dann in etwa so, wie wenn man in einer Depression gesagt bekommt: „Nun lach doch mal.“ Man weiß dann sofort, welchen Erfahrungshintergrund das Gegenüber hat. Das ist keine Wertung, nur eine Feststellung. Unsere Kultur hat hier einfach wichtiges Wissen verloren. Ich persönlich weiß nicht, wie es ist, ein Kind auf die Welt zu bringen oder ein Kind zu verlieren. Ich weiß vieles nicht und habe vermutlich auch schon wenig hilfreiche Kommentare abgegeben, weil ich es nicht besser wusste. Aber ich weiß, wie sich ein aktiviertes Trauma anfühlt. Und das ist ein wertvolles Wissen, was ich gern teilen möchte. Man schaut mit diesem erfahrenen Wissen (kein Bücher-Wissen) viel differenzierter auf das Leid anderer Menschen. Es gibt so viele Sorten von Trauma und deswegen auch Sorten von aktiviertem Trauma. Manchmal denkt man sich nichts dabei und sagt etwas, und schon hat man beim anderen einen Punkt getroffen, der dadurch nun schmerzt. Wenn man Glück hat, dann dauert der Schmerz nur kurz an. Wenn man Pech hat, ist die Freundschaft zu Ende. Ich habe das selbst schon erlebt. Mal war ich es, die den Rückzug angetreten hat. Mal war es der andere. Hinter diesen Phänomenen steckt nichtverarbeitetes Trauma. Die Bildungslücke bezüglich Trauma in unserer Gesellschaft ist (gewollt) riesig.
Wir sind eine traumatisierte Gesellschaft, die nicht weiß, dass sie eine traumatisierte Gesellschaft ist.
Viele Menschen haben unverarbeitetes Trauma im Gepäck. Wir haben selbst nach Jahren der Therapie und Selbstreflektion immer noch unverarbeitete Anteile eines Traumas im Gepäck, das wir glaubten, bearbeitet zu haben. Mir ist das bewusst geworden, je besser ich mein eigenes Trauma kennen und lieben gelernt habe.
Eigentlich wollte ich heute kurz etwas über den gesunden Umgang mit Gefühlen schreiben. Beim Schreiben habe ich aber gemerkt, dass ich erstmal etwas über das Haus erzählen muss, bevor ich über die Gäste, die Gefühle, rede. Ich bin das Haus, das durch Verstand und Gefühle belebt wird. Und hinter dem Haus gibt es noch ein ganzes Universum, auf das ich heute nicht eingehen möchte.
Gefühle und Fühlen sind zentral wichtig, wenn man Trauma bearbeiten möchte.
Trauma wird solange aktiviert, bis es bearbeitet wurde.
In einer traumatisierten Gesellschaft wird 24/7 Trauma aktiviert. Und das ist gut so. Die Evolution schläft nicht. Die Evolution schenkt uns Schmerz, damit wir ihr Aufmerksamkeit schenken.
Das Leben liebt uns, und wiederkehrender Schmerz ist wie die Schlummerfunktion am Wecker, die möchte, dass wir aufwachen.
In unserer traumatisierten Gesellschaft klingelt momentan nicht nur der Wecker. Alles, was tönen kann, gibt Signal. Mir kommt es in dieser Zeit manchmal vor, wie wenn sich gleichzeitig , das Kinder-Sinfonieorchester mit sämtlichen Instrumenten einstimmt, jemand mit dem Handy telefoniert, das Fenster zur Hauptstraße offen steht, der Bus anfährt, der Auspuff röhrt, jemand hupt, das Martinshorn aufheult, die Drehorgel spielt, das Pausenzeichen in der Schule ertönt, es an der Tür klingelt und die Kirchenorgel aus allen Pfeifen flötet und brummt.
Aktiviertes Trauma macht ordentlich Krach individuell und erst recht gesellschaftlich gesehen. Und je lauter es ist, desto dringender möchte es bearbeitet werden.
Die Baustelle HERZ zu bearbeiten, lohnt sich. Und Fühlen bringt die Verwandlung.

2025-05-13 06:32:15You don’t have to be a type designer to appreciate what goes into the design of a letterform. In fact, even if you’re just a humble graphic designer, you should have a basic knowledge of what constructs the type you employ.
Typography, for all its concepts, expectations, implications, connotations and artistry, is, ultimately, a system. Just like a body has bones and muscles, every letterform has parts that give it shape, rhythm, and character.
If you're a creative working with type, learning the names of these parts helps you communicate clearly, better analyze your work and others, and design with precision. Everything comes down to a foundational understanding of the anatomy of the letterform and its essential component. So let’s help you with that.
Pangram Pangram Foundry is where the art of typography meets unparalleled craftsmanship. Established in 2018 by designer Mat Desjardins, Pangram Pangram has swiftly risen to become a globally recognized independent type foundry, admired and trusted by industry peers and the design community alike.

2025-05-13 06:21:36Steve Jobs sent me an email saying “Great idea, thank you."
Wait, what? What was the great idea?
new guy at NeXT In October of 1991, I was a new Systems Engineer at NeXT. NeXT, of course, was the company Steve Jobs had founded after leaving Apple in 1985, and which eventually merged back into Apple in 1996. I was one of three employees in Canada, and I think NeXT had about 400 people total.
NeXTMail Mail on the NeXT Computer was pretty amazing in 1991. Multimedia! Fonts! Attachments! Sounds! It’s hard to overstate how cool that was compared to the command line email everybody was used to. Every NeXT user got this email from Steve when they started up their computer.
That message included an attachment of what NeXT called Lip Service, the crazy idea that you could embed an audio file inside an email message. Crazy.
i have an idea
NeXT automatically set everybody up with a first-initial last-name address in the usual way, so I was shayman@next.com, and the big guy was sjobs@next.com.
A few colleagues had somehow acquired cooler email aliases - single letter things, or their first name, or a nickname or an easier to spell version, or whatever. Turns out NeXT had set up some sort of form where you could request an email alias that would redirect to whatever your real email address was.
I also noticed that even though there were seven or eight people at NeXT named Steve, nobody was using the email alias steve@next.com.
So late one Friday night, two weeks into the job, I figured, naively, what the heck, nobody else seems to want it, so I filled in the form asking for steve@next.com to be forwarded to me, shayman@next.com.
In the back of my mind was a vague idea that maybe somebody would have to approve this. But no, it all got set up automatically, and …

@ 10f7c7f7:f5683da9
2025-05-14 17:51:45Let’s begin with a simple question, why do students go to a business school? Other than the obvious of not really knowing what they want to do in the future and thinking they will at least be able to get a graduate job of some type when they leave. The difficulty for business schools is then how to develop and deliver an education that provides students with a general overview of important topics of a modern business, finance, accounting, human resources, economics, marketing and a variety of other management topics, such as operations, sustainability and analytics, to name a few, that remains up to date. Not only have difficulties emerged recently with the advent of easily accessible large language models making the life of an unscrupulous student easier and the life of the diligent lecturer more difficult, but the whole nature of business is continually changing. Why learn about operations, if I can get all I need from some dark factory overseas? Why put together a marketing plan for my business, when anyone with a following can sell all the products they want with a single post? Why learn about the nuances of accounting theory when a) you’ll need to go through formal training irrespective of the degree the student earned, and b) the job may soon no longer exist as a result of AI based automation?
While a touch dark, these are questions that need to be asked within business schools today to ensure that 18 and 19 year olds, entering university, preparing to saddle themselves with upwards of £30,000 worth of debt, are not making a massive, expensive mistake. While there are the benefits related to the social and maturing process of attending university, the cost of university has forever changed this calculation for most, other than the most privileged and wealthy students. Compared to 20 years ago, taking a few years out and then starting a job made sense, where living expensive could be covered by a combination of loans, part time work and help from parents, with resources left over to a little fun. If the above questions are valid, attending university for 3 years, and then potentially feeling the need to also complete a postgraduate degree to “set yourself apart”, what you actually come out of university with needs to be given a lot of attention. As someone who has taught in university for over 10 years, I’ve seen both changes in the business environment and how students engage with studies have changed. Putting it simply, many are more focused on making ends meet than learning anything, meaning many will take any opportunity to save a little time on a piece of coursework, just to get a pass, e.g. asking chatgpt to write a 3000-word essay on “X” topic.
For me, this has resulted in students with more focus upon “getting a good degree”, than engaging in learning, meaning every short cut is taken and the drive to come out of university as a better person appears, at least partially, lost. From finding out about bitcoin a little over 5 years ago, and studying it rather intently for the last 2 and a half, I think it represents a critical subject for helping Business Schools remain relevant. Bitcoin is emerging as potentially the most important economic innovation ever, and the most rapidly growing asset in history, but it appears looked down upon in the school I work. Whether off hand comments in department meetings of “pay me in bitcoin” (followed by muffled laughter), “students only want to do research projects on ‘cryptocurrencies’” said condescendingly by an economics lecturer or published work clearly stating “we find empirical evidence that the fundamental price of Bitcoin is zero”. If people outside academia worry that universities are becoming indoctrination institutions, training young people not to investigate new topics, these views of academics are unlikely to provide an environment for a balanced, open discussion.
While I would not want to paint all members of the business school where I work with the same broad brush, I would a) be extremely interested to know how many modules make reference to bitcoin, b) how many members of staff are aware of bitcoin and c) how many have actually read the bitcoin white paper. While I wouldn’t want to make any assumptions, I would not be surprised if the responses to b) were magnitudes greater than the responses to a) and c) combined. If this is the case, the question is then raised of why this is relevant and what the students are likely missing out on by not providing them with education on this emerging topic. Importantly, this does not mean education on the thousands of new cryptocurrency projects that are released on a daily basis, just education of bitcoin, bitcoin was the first, it is the most valuable by market cap, it is the innovation, everything else doesn’t warrant attention.
Firstly, to reflect on bitcoin having a value of zero, if a student graduating university in 2025 spent their first year’s tuition fees on bitcoin (Fees approximately £9,000, bitcoin approximately £16,000 in Sept 2022), they would have been able to purchase 0.55btc. By 13-05-2025 (2 months before graduation), that same purchase would be worth over £45,000, very much non-zero. While this may be viewed by some as an example that only a high-risk gambler would pursue, a similar argument could be made for a student spending £30k (plus living expenses) to study a subject they likely didn’t fully understand, to hopefully secure a job to pay back that loan in 3 years time. However, saying that, if the student had bought bitcoin when it was higher (September 2021, so buying 0.23btc) by graduation in July 2024, there bitcoin would ONLY be worth a little over £12k (still greater than the initial investment and more than zero). However, as someone who believes in the value of education, I’m not going to tell my children or anyone of university age to take out a student loan and buy bitcoin with it, apart from likely being illegal, and at least “not in line with their intended use”.
The old man academic curmudgeon in me would suggest that the student go and learn a craft, that will have value in the future, becoming a plumber, an electrician or a carpenter, while learning about bitcoin on the side. However, after 15 years from the age of 4, being fed state sponsored indoctrination that “all the smart kids go to university”, putting such pressure on a young person may appear unkind, if ultimately “good for them”. So, what options might an academically competent individual have when they leave school and may want to keep studying? This might be where a university’s business school may be able to step in, although in my opinion, every effort must be made to reduce costs, while also increasing value of the experience. Spending money given to children (by government) for their education on administrative staff and new buildings that don’t benefit students, not to mention lecture theatres and seminar rooms that many students choose not to frequent, feels deeply wrong. The money students pay for their education should help foster a deep drive to enquire about subjects they do not yet understand and then be able to articulate and communicate that learning to others. Ideally, students will leave university with skills, that may not be quite as hands on as if they had learnt a craft, but hopefully practical in terms of helping their future employers succeed.
Now, while there are near infinite topics and examples that could be considered, from AI to robotization to new marketing philosophies to new approaches to managing supply chains, introducing bitcoin may provide a useful foundation on which to begin development of curriculum. The main concern is the views of those within the business school, while I only have a few data points and would like to be proved wrong, I worry that the British Broadcasting Corporation has successfully tainted their views on bitcoin. Did you know that each bitcoin payment‘uses a swimming pool of water’? I hope you didn’t because that was a blatantly false statement from the BBC that not been retracted since first being published in November 2023. If the views of those within the business school are misinformed, but also, if this topic they are aware of has not led to them exploring this topic further leads to further concerns, are they not inquisitive? I imagine points in the future when colleagues tell me how luck I was, to have bought bitcoin in 2020 and they aren’t so fortunate, I bite my tongue, then say; I’m not lucky, I just made the effort to learn about bitcoin (which is the most socially acceptable response I can find). But this isn’t just about buying an asset that may go up in value, but using bitcoin to add new relevance to so much of what is taught in a business school, to prepare graduates or entrepreneurs for a future that will likely benefit from having bitcoin integrated into it.
This is not a place to begin listing each module and describe in detail how bitcoin must be integrated into it. This is not sustainability, and I would not want module leaders to feel they are required to do something, even when the outcome is students feeling they are repeatedly covering topics that are not relevant to them or the topic they are studying. However, if those designing modules can appreciate what bitcoin is, they may be able to appreciate particular modules within their suite that may have elements that are aligned with aspects of bitcoin. While in no way exhaustive, modules could ask or include such topics as:
1) Marketing: How a trillion-dollar asset succeeded without a marketing budget?
2) Sustainability: How bitcoin mining is transforming renewable energy generation
3) Finance: Financial engineering of bitcoin treasury companies
4) Entrepreneurship: Venture capital for bitcoin native firms
5) Human resources: New models of staff engagement and remuneration
6) Tourism: Developing bitcoin holiday destinations
7) Economics: Exploring economies using fixed supply assets in practice
8) Accounting: Exploring alternative units of account in business
9) Business Start-up: Exploring bitcoin enabled business start-ups
10) Operations: Reimagining operational improvement initiatives
Through a process of clearly introducing what bitcoin is, as well as questioning established views and misunderstanding of bitcoin, modules would be able to provide students with opportunities to both learn about bitcoin and then apply it within their subject area. In comparison to the above example of the impact of simply buying bitcoin instead of going to university, the suggested modules would allow students to apply what they had learnt about bitcoin to practical contexts. By taking a step back from the potential to get more dollars or pounds, learning about bitcoin may also allow students to build appreciations of behaviours that are often associated with money that doesn’t need to be spent immediately, low time preference. While there would be no obligation, this may also enable students to begin saving in bitcoin during their time at university (rather than spending everything they earn on take out), preparing themselves for some time in the future, with assets they have previously accumulated that have appreciated in value.
However, these benefits are not limited to the students, if members of staff have been sufficiently inquisitive to explore how bitcoin could be integrated into their module or indeed their own research, they may also choose to begin saving in bitcoin. While academic careers are accepted as having potentially lower wages that some private sector jobs, but having this balanced again flexible working and good pensions, in recently years, drops in student numbers and limits on international students have put many institutions under considerable pressure. As a result, lecturers are coming under more pressure to publish more with less time dedicated to research, while also being required to spend more time in classrooms with the associate preparatory and marking burden. Without saving in bitcoin, a major concern for me is that academics are being continually stretched to do more with less, doing their own research in evenings and weekends, forced to remain in academia to collect their “good pension”, which may ultimately get cut. While able to maintain the existing system of students receiving face to face support in the short term, without spare resources to develop new knowledge and refreshing teaching material, the students will ultimately suffer, with staff being stretched ever thinner. Learning about, and then saving in bitcoin may provide staff with a buffer, knowing that they have been able to accumulate sufficient assets so they are not required to continue working 5 days a week into their 50s or 60s. The released time could then be directed towards their own learning, allowing them to make use of newly released slack resources for research and then research informed teaching.
So, to return to the opening question, why do students go to a business school? While it may be to understand elements of a business to help them decide what area of a business they may want to work in, it also needs to be able to provide students with the skills to succeed in which ever part of a business they choose to work in. For this, students need to know why they have gone to university in the first place and then had sufficient time to study and learn. Without this, university may simply be viewed as a very expensive, few gap years, they then spend the next couple of decades paying for. What learning about bitcoin may do during their university journey may do is help them answer more fundamental questions, such as what is money, which if they can’t answer, the aims of a business school and the purpose of getting a better paid graduate job must be difficult to articulate. Why spend 3 years accumulating debt, only to spend the following decades paying that debt off, particularly if the money you are earning is losing its value because of inflation? Another topic that integrating bitcoin into a business school would help articulate more clearly, particularly if existing economics modules are based on the work of John Maynard Keynes; no, no, no, inflation is not good, can you give me an example of when theft produced a positive outcome?
For those few (as a portion of population) individuals and businesses that have begun to save in bitcoin, with prices per coin approaching new all time highs, this has likely been a good decision. Bitcoin is good for saving and for businesses looking to be around in the long term, at the very least being able to save in bitcoin, is likely to have a positive impact on the business. To extend this argument to a university, but specifically a Business School, integrating bitcoin could provide students with an introduction to help them save for the future and learn about bitcoin’s relevance to business, while also potentially helping staff spend more time doing what they value. While I would never say that Business Schools should adopt/integrate bitcoin, I would definitely not want to be seen as an educational institution that wasn’t sufficiently inquisitive to be actively investigating this emerging strategic reserve asset.

2025-05-16 11:22:20Introduction
Bitcoin and torrents are two technologies that have reshaped how people share information and resources in the digital age. Both are built on decentralized principles and challenge traditional systems—torrents in the realm of file sharing, and Bitcoin in the world of finance. However, while torrents have seen a decline in popularity with the rise of streaming platforms like Netflix and HBO, many wonder whether Bitcoin will follow a similar trajectory or continue to grow as a widely adopted technology. This article explores the similarities between the two technologies, the resilience of torrents against attempts to shut them down, the reasons for their declining popularity, and why Bitcoin is likely to avoid a similar fate.
Similarities Between Torrents and Bitcoin
Torrents and Bitcoin share several key characteristics that make them unique and resilient:
-
Decentralization:\ Torrents rely on peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, where users share files directly with each other without depending on a central server. Similarly, Bitcoin operates on a blockchain—a decentralized network of nodes that maintain and validate transactions. This lack of a central authority makes both technologies difficult to control or shut down.
-
Censorship Resistance:\ Both systems are designed to withstand attempts at restriction. Torrents continue to function even when specific sites like The Pirate Bay are blocked, as the network relies on thousands of users worldwide. Bitcoin is also resistant to government bans, as transactions are processed by a global network of miners.
-
Anonymity and Pseudonymity:\ Torrents allow users to share files without revealing their identities, especially when using VPNs. Bitcoin, while pseudonymous (transactions are public but not directly tied to real-world identities), offers a similar level of privacy, attracting users seeking financial freedom.
-
Open Source:\ Both technologies are open-source, enabling developers to improve and adapt them. This fosters innovation and makes the systems more resilient to attacks.
Why Torrents Cannot Be Stopped
Torrents have persisted despite numerous attempts to curb them due to their decentralized nature. Governments and organizations have shut down sites like The Pirate Bay and Kickass Torrents, but new platforms quickly emerge. The key reasons for their resilience include:
-
P2P Architecture:\ Torrents do not rely on a single server. Every user downloading or sharing a file becomes part of the network, making it impossible to completely dismantle.
-
Global Distribution:\ Millions of users worldwide sustain torrent networks. Even if one country imposes strict regulations, others continue to support the system.
-
Adaptability:\ The torrent community quickly adapts to challenges, using VPNs, proxy servers, or the dark web to bypass restrictions.
Despite this resilience, the popularity of torrents has significantly declined in recent years, particularly among younger users.
The Decline of Torrents: Why They Lost Popularity
In the early 2000s, torrents were the primary way to access movies, music, and software. They were easy to use, free, and offered a vast array of content. However, the rise of streaming platforms like Netflix, HBO, Disney+, and Spotify has changed how people consume media. The main reasons for the decline of torrents include:
-
Convenience:\ Streaming platforms provide instant access to high-quality content without the need for downloading or specialized software. Torrents, in contrast, require technical knowledge and are often slower.
-
Legality and Safety:\ Using torrents carries risks such as viruses, malware, and legal consequences. Streaming services offer a safe and legal alternative.
-
Marketing and Accessibility:\ Platforms like Netflix invest billions in original content and marketing, attracting younger users who prefer easy access over free but risky downloads.
-
Social Shifts:\ Younger generations, raised with access to subscription services, are often unfamiliar with torrents or view them as outdated. Studies from 2023 indicate that only a small percentage of people under 25 regularly use torrents.
Despite this decline, torrents have not disappeared entirely. They are still used in regions with limited access to streaming services or by users who value free access to niche content.
Why Bitcoin Will Not Share the Fate of Torrents
Despite the similarities, Bitcoin has unique characteristics that make it more likely to achieve mainstream adoption rather than being overshadowed by alternatives. Here are the key reasons:
-
Financial Revolution:\ Bitcoin addresses problems that lack direct alternatives. It enables transactions without intermediaries, which is particularly valuable in countries with unstable currencies or limited banking access. Unlike torrents, which were replaced by more convenient streaming platforms, traditional financial systems still have flaws that Bitcoin addresses.
-
Institutional Adoption:\ Major companies like Tesla, PayPal, and Square accept Bitcoin or invest in it. Financial institutions, including JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs, are developing cryptocurrency-related products. This institutional acceptance boosts Bitcoin’s credibility and legitimacy, something torrents never achieved.
-
Limited Supply:\ Bitcoin’s fixed supply of 21 million coins makes it attractive as a store of value, similar to gold. This characteristic distinguishes it from other technologies and gives it potential for long-term growth.
-
Technological Advancements:\ The Bitcoin network evolves through improvements like the Lightning Network, which makes transactions faster and cheaper. These innovations make it competitive with traditional payment systems, whereas torrents failed to adapt to streaming technologies.
-
Global Financial Integration:\ Unlike torrents, which remained in the niche of file sharing, Bitcoin has the potential to integrate into the global financial system. Countries like El Salvador have already recognized it as legal tender, and others may follow suit.
-
Cultural and Economic Significance:\ Bitcoin is perceived not only as a technology but also as a movement for financial independence and decentralization. This ideology attracts young people and tech enthusiasts, making it more resilient to the social shifts that affected torrents.
Conclusion
Torrents and Bitcoin share common roots as decentralized technologies that challenge the status quo. However, while torrents lost popularity due to the rise of more convenient and legal alternatives, Bitcoin has the potential to avoid this fate. Its ability to address real financial problems, institutional adoption, and technological advancements make it a likely candidate for mainstream use in the future. While torrents remained a niche technology, Bitcoin is emerging as a global force that could transform how the world perceives money.

Dánia fontolgatja a 40 éve tartó atomerőmű-tilalom feloldását
Dánia fontolgatja a 40 éve érvényben lévő atomerőmű-tilalom feloldását, hogy javítsa energiaellátásának biztonságát, és elkerülje az olyan áramszüneteket, mint amilyenek múlt hónapban Spanyolországot és Portugáliát sújtották – közölte az ország energiaügyi minisztere.
Lars Aagaard a dán Politiken napilapnak május 13-án elmondta, hogy a koppenhágai centrista koalíció egy évig elemzi majd az atomenergia újbóli bevezetésének előnyeit és hátrányait.
„Láthatjuk, hogy fejlődés zajlik az új atomenergia-technológiák, például a kis moduláris reaktorok terén” – mondta Aagaard.
„De önmagában nem elég, hogy ezekben lehetőség rejlik. Azt is tudnunk kell, mit jelentene a dán társadalom számára, ha lehetővé tennénk ezeknek a technológiáknak a bevezetését” – tette hozzá.
Május 14-én Aagaardnak nyilvános meghallgatáson kellett megjelennie a parlamentben, hogy válaszoljon az ellenzéki pártok kérdéseire, amelyek támogatják az atomenergia visszahozatalát.
Az 1985-ös tilalom feloldása Dániát azon országok növekvő csoportjába sorolná, amelyek az atomenergiát a megújuló energiaforrások kiegyensúlyozására használják az áramtermelésben.
A szomszédos Svédország jobboldali kormánya megpróbálja újjáéleszteni az atomenergiát az országban, ahol még három atomerőmű működik, miután a Three Mile Island-i (USA) 1979-es baleset óta folyamatosan vitatkoznak a bezárásukról.
Norvégia eközben bizottságot hozott létre az atomenergia lehetőségeinek vizsgálatára, és olyan cégek jelentek meg, amelyek kis moduláris reaktorok telepítését tervezik.
Anders Fogh Rasmussen, Dánia volt miniszterelnöke és a NATO egykori főtitkára a brit Financial Timesnak azt mondta, támogatja a „nevetséges” tilalom feloldását.
Dán milliárdos alapja támogatja az atomenergiát
Dánia Európában az egyik legmagasabb megújuló energia részaránnyal rendelkezik az áramtermelésben, köszönhetően a partjai mentén található hatalmas tengeri szélerőműveknek.
Dániában sosem működtek kereskedelmi atomerőművek, de három kutatóreaktort üzemeltettek 1957 és 1960 között. Ezeket mind leállították, jelenleg leszerelik őket.
Múlt hónapban Joachim Ante dán milliárdos által támogatott alap bejelentette, hogy 350 millió eurót kíván összegyűjteni a fejlett atomenergia-ipar és annak ellátási láncának támogatására. A 92 Capital az atomenergia újjáéledésére számít, mivel egyre nagyobb az aggodalom az energiaellátás biztonsága miatt.
Ante, aki a Unity nevű videojáték-szoftvercéget alapította, eddig 50 millió eurót fektetett be saját vagyonából.
Az alap korábbi változata, a 92 Ventures, befektetett a svéd Blykalla és a finn Steady Energy cégekbe, amelyek mind kis moduláris reaktorok fejlesztésén dolgoznak.
A dán Seaborg Technologies több országban vizsgálja kompakt, olvadt sóval működő, úszó „erőmű bárka” technológiájának telepítési lehetőségeit.
Urán és üzemanyag – 2025. május 14. | Írta: David Dalton
Az USA felgyorsítja a Utah-i uránprojektet, miközben Trump az „energia-válság” megoldására törekszik
Az amerikai belügyminisztérium bejelentette, hogy gyorsított környezetvédelmi engedélyezési eljárás alá vonja az Anfield Energy által javasolt Velvet-Wood uránbánya projektet Utah államban, hogy elősegítse Donald Trump elnök törekvését a hazai energiatermelés növelésére.
Ennek eredményeként a projekt környezeti felülvizsgálata mindössze 14 nap alatt lezajlik – közölte a minisztérium.
Az ilyen vizsgálatok általában évekig tartanak az uránbányászat lehetséges környezeti hatásai miatt.
A kanadai Anfield Energy szerint a Velvet-Wood az első uránprojekt, amelyet az amerikai kormány gyorsított eljárásban kezel Trump energiafüggetlenségi vészhelyzeti nyilatkozata alapján. A cég szerint ez „határozott elmozdulás a hazai nukleáris üzemanyag-ellátás szövetségi támogatása felé”.
Doug Burgum belügyminiszter szerint Amerika riasztó energiavészhelyzettel néz szembe az előző kormányzat „klímaszélsőséges” politikája miatt.
„Trump elnök és kormánya gyorsasággal és erővel válaszol, hogy megoldja ezt a válságot” – mondta.
„A bányászati projekt gyorsított felülvizsgálata pontosan az a határozott lépés, amelyre szükségünk van energia-jövőnk biztosításához.”
Ha jóváhagyják, a San Juan megyében lévő Velvet-Wood bánya uránt termelne, amelyet atomerőművek üzemanyagaként és nukleáris fegyverek előállításához is használnak, valamint vanádiumot, amely akkumulátorokban vagy acél és más ötvözetek erősítésére használható.
A belügyminisztérium szerint a projekt egy korábbi bányászati művelet helyszínén valósulna meg, és csak három hektárnyi új felszíni zavarás keletkezne.
Az Anfield tulajdonában van a Shootaring Canyon uránfeldolgozó üzem is Utah-ban, amelyet újraindítani tervez. Ez az üzem az uránércet urán-koncentrátummá alakítaná, amely atomerőművek üzemanyagaként használható.
Az Anfield 2015-ben vásárolta meg a Velvet-Wood bányát az Uranium One-tól. 1979 és 1984 között az Atlas Minerals mintegy 400 000 tonna ércet bányászott ki a Velvet-lelőhelyen, és körülbelül négy millió font triurán-okt-oxidot (U3O8) nyert ki.
Az U3O8, más néven „sárga sütemény”, egyfajta urán-koncentrátum por, amelyet atomerőművek üzemanyagának előállítására használnak.

Brüsszel „jelentős kockázatot” lát a Dukovany atomerőmű projektben a tisztességtelen állami támogatás miatt
Brüsszel „jelentős” kockázatot lát abban, hogy a dél-koreai cég, amely elnyerte a két új atomerőmű szállítására kiírt szerződést a csehországi Dukovany telephelyére, tisztességtelen állami támogatásban részesült.
A Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP), az állami Kepco leányvállalata, a francia állami EDF és az amerikai Westinghouse előtt nyerte el a szerződést.
Brüsszel azonban arra kérte a cseh kormányt, hogy függessze fel a szerződést, amíg az EU külföldi támogatásokról szóló rendelete alapján döntés nem születik, amely az uniós vállalatokat hivatott védeni a jelentős állami támogatásban részesülő külföldi versenytársakkal szemben.
Stéphane Séjourné, az EU belső piacért felelős biztosa május 2-i levelében azt írta, hogy „jelentős jelek” utalnak arra, hogy a KHNP állami támogatásban részesült, ami torzíthatja az unió belső piacát, és tisztességtelen előnyt adhat az európai versenytársakkal szemben.
A széles körben ismertetett levél szerint a szerződés aláírása veszélyeztetné a bizottság vizsgálati lehetőségét.
Egy cseh regionális bíróság május 6-án felfüggesztette a szerződést az EDF fellebbezése után, amely szerint a szerződés precedenst teremtene, lehetővé téve a dél-koreai cég számára, hogy agresszíven pályázzon más európai szerződésekre.
Egy EU-tisztviselő szerint Séjourné, aki francia, kizárólag az uniós jog betartatása érdekében lépett közbe, nem pedig hazája érdekeinek védelmében.
A cseh CTK hírügynökség idézte Petr Fiala cseh miniszterelnököt, aki szerint a levél a biztostól származik, de nem képviseli a bizottság hivatalos álláspontját, és nincs kötelező ereje.
Az Euractiv szerint egy bizottsági szóvivő május 12-én újságíróknak azt mondta, hogy Séjourné levele „egyáltalán nem kérte a dolgok felfüggesztését”.
A cseh cég szerint az állami támogatás vádja „spekuláció”
A reaktorprojektért felelős cseh cég, az Elektrárna Dukovany II (EDU II) közleményt adott ki, amelyben megvédte a kiválasztási folyamatot, és felszólította az EDF-et, hogy hozza nyilvánosságra a pályázat során benyújtott ajánlatát.
Az EDU II, a cseh állami közműcég, a ČEZ leányvállalata, közölte, hogy „teljes kártérítést” követel, és megvédi a részvényesi értéket a pereskedéssel szemben.
A közlemény szerint az illegális támogatás vádja „a sikertelen pályázó spekulációja”.
Dél-Korea és Csehország megerősítette elkötelezettségét az atomerőmű-szerződés aláírása mellett, a bírósági döntés ellenére is.
Sajtóhírek szerint a cseh kormány május 7-i ülésén közölte, hogy az EDU II a lehető leghamarabb folytatja a szerződéskötést a KHNP-vel két atomerőmű építésére.
A két új, nagy kapacitású APR1400 típusú blokkot a KHNP szállítja, és a dél-csehországi Dukovany atomerőmű meglévő telephelyén építik fel, mintegy 50 kilométerre az osztrák határtól.
Az eredetileg május 7-re tervezett szerződéskötést elhalasztották, miután bírósági végzést adtak ki az EDF jogi kifogása miatt.

Vizsgálati program bizonyítja a szállítható atomerőművek robusztusságát – állítja a Prodigy
Egy elsőként végrehajtott vizsgálati program bizonyítja, hogy a szállítható atomerőművek képesek ellenállni baleseti és veszélyhelyzeti forgatókönyveknek – és kritikus adatokat szolgáltat a kereskedelmi engedélyezés támogatásához 2030-ig.
A kanadai Prodigy Clean Energy és a Serco közölte, hogy a vizsgálatokat részben a kanadai szövetségi kormány 2,7 millió kanadai dolláros támogatása finanszírozta, amely a kis moduláris reaktorok fejlesztését célozza.
A Prodigy szerint szállítható atomerőművei tengeri létesítményben készülnek, majd a helyszínre szállítják őket, így gyors telepítési megoldást kínálnak az új atomenergia gyors és versenyképes költségű bevezetésére.
A cég lényegében „csomagolja” a kis moduláris reaktorokat és mikroreaktorokat előre gyártott, áthelyezhető erőművi szerkezetekbe. Az egységek kombinálhatók, így 5 megawattól 1000 megawattig terjedő kapacitás érhető el.
„A szállítható atomerőművek nagyon kis partszakaszt igényelnek, és testre szabhatók reaktortípus és méret szerint” – közölte a cég.
Azt is közölték, hogy a brit központú Serco-val együttműködve tesztelik a szállítható atomerőművek ellenállását és szerkezeti teljesítményét „a legnehezebb körülmények között”, beleértve a repülőgép-becsapódást és hajóütközést; földrengést, jeget és más szélsőséges időjárási és óceáni eseményeket; tüzet és árvizet; valamint a belső rakétabecsapódás elleni ellenállást.
„A Prodigy elvégzi a szükséges munkát, hogy a szállítható atomerőművek időben piacra kerülhessenek Észak-Amerikában” – mondta Mathias Trojer, a cég elnök-vezérigazgatója.
Hozzátette, hogy a Prodigy reaktortechnológiái mostanra elérték azt a szintet, hogy részletes mérnöki együttműködéseket indíthatnak komoly partnerekkel.
A Prodigy szerint szállítható atomerőművei szén-dioxid-mentes alapterhelést tudnak biztosítani távoli bányák, közösségek, védelmi létesítmények és sarkvidéki adatközpontok számára.

Szerb atomenergia-tanulmány június végére készül el: Előzetes tanulmány készül Szerbia atomenergia-használatáról, amely a második negyedév végére várható. A francia állami energiaszolgáltató EDF és a francia Egis Industries mérnöki vállalat nyerte el a tanulmány elkészítésére kiírt pályázatot, amely egy lehetséges nukleáris program ütemtervét is tartalmazza. Szerbiában nincs kereskedelmi atomerőmű, de tavaly öt minisztérium együttműködési megállapodást írt alá húsz tudományos és állami energetikai intézménnyel az első atomerőmű telepítésének lehetőségét vizsgálva.

Az U3O8 spot árfolyama kissé emelkedett, de bizonytalanság marad: Az amerikai TradeTech szerint az U3O8 spot árfolyama 70 dollár fontonként, ami 7,7%-os emelkedés áprilishoz képest, de év eleje óta 7,9%-kal alacsonyabb. A középtávú ár 72 dollár, a hosszú távú ár 80 dollár fontonként. A bizonytalanság oka többek között az USA és Oroszország közötti kapcsolatok javításának nehézségei, valamint az amerikai mesterséges intelligencia-fejlesztések energiaigénye, miközben a kínai versenytársak hatékonyabbak.

Tanulmány a skót nukleáris leszerelési program hosszú távú előnyeiről: Skócia 25 milliárd fontos nukleáris leszerelési programja jelentős hosszú távú gazdasági és társadalmi előnyöket hozhat országos és helyi szinten a következő 90 évben és azon túl is. Három nukleáris létesítmény van Skóciában leszerelési fázisban: Dounreay, Hunterston A és Chapelcross. A Hunterston B-t jelenleg üzemanyag-mentesítik, a Torness és a Vulcan is hamarosan leszerelési fázisba lép.

2025-05-15 20:01:08I love that #nostr lets me write in long form. I see this as one of the brightest parts of Nostr's future.
Friends, I appreciate that you like thoughtful & detailed posts.
I'm also trying to move myself away from the** sustained-thought atrophy of the Twitter format**.. where half of each tweet is like half headline.
But I've struggled with composing long notes on a client in a way that is natural & intuitive.
It has been especially difficult to get a sense for how the thing is gonna look.
And when I want to add in more material...yiikes.
So I'm delighted to be composing this post in the brandnew note editor from #Primal.
So far, it feels really good. And I like that I can selectively format text.
The troll in me still wants a <blink> tag.
Onwards to sustained cognition & real conversation!

2025-05-14 05:57:34Europäischer Tunnelblick
In unseren Breiten sprach man schon seit jeher gerne davon, dass »Amerika den Europäern immer voraus« ist. Dass »der alte Kontinent« stets zehn Jahre im Hintertreffen ist. In der Finanzbranche attestierte man auch gerne mal einen Rückstand von »20 Jahren«. Bemängelt wurde im Rahmen solcher Analysen zumeist die mangelnde Innovationskraft europäischer Unternehmen, die gemäß einschlägiger Experten vor allem auf die Regulierungswut der hiesigen Bürokratie zurückzuführen ist. Langwierige Genehmigungsprozesse, kompliziertes Steuerrecht, zu kleine Kapitalmärkte und komplexe Datenschutzanforderungen schrecken Gründer und Investoren ab. »Bürokraten regulieren Europa zu Tode«, bringt es der Ökonom und Unternehmer Dirk Specht am 29. November 2024 auf den Punkt. Aus Sicht des Entrepreneurs eine durchaus nachvollziehbare Einordnung.
Denn selbst wenn die Hürden der Unternehmensgründung einmal überwunden sind, machen Bürokratiekosten selbst in kleinen Firmen knapp drei Prozent vom Umsatz aus. Im industriellen Mittelstand übersteigen sie nicht selten die jährliche Bruttoumsatzrendite von durchschnittlich fünfeinhalb Prozent. Von den arbeitsrechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen – siehe Kündigungsschutz, Urlaubsanspruch und Lohnfortzahlung im Krankheitsfall – gar nicht erst anzufangen. In puncto Flexibilität ist Europa für Unternehmer also tatsächlich nur bedingt attraktiv.
Ganz anders die USA. Deregulierung, Seed-Capital en Masse und ein Arbeitsrecht, das den Slogan »Hire and fire« weltberühmt machte – gemäß Tagesschau vom 11. Februar 2025 übrigens ein Modell, das dank Microsoft, Meta und SAP langsam auch in Deutschland Einzug hält. Diese unternehmerische Freiheit – oder Zügellosigkeit – machte Amerika zum Start-up-Inkubator. Zum Gründerparadies. Wall Street, Motorcity, Silicon Valley, Hollywood, et cetera. Ein Mekka für Investoren. Und ein Alptraum für Arbeitnehmer.
Alles richtig. Oberflächlich betrachtet. Dass bei dieser sehr kurzsichtigen Analyse stets außer Acht gelassen wird, welchen Anteil die beiden Weltkriege, angloamerikanische Finanzdynastien, halbseidene NGO-Netzwerke und vor allem über ein Dutzend Geheimdienste an Amerikas Wirtschaftswachstum der vergangenen 100 Jahre haben, trübt den Blick der europäischen Unternehmergarde allerdings nachhaltig. Denn er negiert den historischen Kontext. Vermutlich läuft Roger Köppels Editorial für DIE WELTWOCHE vom 01. Mai 2025 deshalb immer noch ungeniert unter dem Titel »Hoffnungsträger Trump«.
Ich habe täglich Kontakt mit Geschäftspartnern in den USA – und bei denen ist von Hoffnung nicht (mehr) viel zu spüren. Begriffe wie Planungsprobleme, Stornierung, Unsicherheit oder Lieferengpass fallen dagegen immer häufiger. Investor’s Business Daily nannte den Zustand vor wenigen Stunden »ein Erdbeben«, weil Trumps »Handelskrieg-Tsunami« nun auch die Häfen der Vereinigten Staaten erreicht hat. Die laufen langsam leer. Frachter und Tanker mit Importwaren löschen ihre Ladung nicht. Oder kommen gar nicht mehr an. Die auf Basis von Strafzöllen zu erwartenden Lieferengpässe »könnten die Folgen der Covid-Krise übertreffen«, konstatiert das Investment-Magazin.
Was also passiert gerade in den Vereinigten Staaten? Sollte Europa tatsächlich neidisch auf die vermeintlichen Wettbewerbsvorteile Amerikas sein – oder gar auf die aktuellen politischen Entwicklungen? Auf Effizienzsteigerung der Marke DOGE? Nein, keinesfalls. Denn zum einen sorgen die turbokapitalistischen Exzesse im »Land der unbegrenzten Möglichkeiten« dafür, dass Arbeitnehmer endgültig zu Lohnsklaven degradiert werden, die den Launen von Märkten und Unternehmen relativ schutzlos ausgeliefert sind. Zum anderen beruht der Erfolg amerikanischer Konzerne keineswegs auf deren Innovationskraft, einem laxen Arbeitsrecht oder genialem Unternehmertum, sondern primär auf tiefenstaatlichem Interventionismus. Das gilt seit dem Jahrtausendwechsel vor allem für die Tech-Branche. Denn die USA sind nicht einfach eine Wirtschaftsmacht, sondern der militärische Arm des angloamerikanischen Empire.
Das zeigen die »Glorreichen Sieben« – Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Tesla und Nvidia – die allesamt erst durch Startfinanzierung seitens Militär und Geheimdiensten wurden, was sie heute sind: Die Speerspitze des technokratischen Totalitarismus. Nachdem selbst The Economist am 10. Dezember 2024 feststellte, dass mit der Wiederwahl von Donald Trump nun »die PayPal-Mafia die US-Regierung übernimmt«, sollte man in unseren Bereiten also eventuell etwas kritischer begutachten, was die entsprechenden Konzerne dort treiben. Denn es ist angesichts von Agenda 2030, aktuellen EU-Programmen, EZB-Planungen und einer Kriegswirtschaft kolportierenden Bundesregierung unter BlackRock-Merz nicht davon auszugehen, dass es dieses Mal zehn oder zwanzig Jahre dauert, bis diese Entwicklungen auch bei uns ankommen.
Palantir & DOGE
Das bezieht sich insbesondere auf Elon Musks DOGE – das »Department of Government Efficiency« – eine neu geschaffene Behörde, die sich auf Effizienzsteigerung in Sachen Regierungsgeschäfte konzentrieren soll. Dies selbstredend unter flächendeckender Zuhilfenahme von KI (Künstlicher Intelligenz), die wiederum auf entsprechende Datenpools angewiesen ist. Um solche kurzfristig zur Verfügung zu stellen, durchforstet, hackt und kapert Musks DOGE-Team die IT-Abteilungen, Server und Netzwerke von Ministerien und Bundesbehörden. Vor allem auf Finanzdaten hat man es abgesehen. An geltendes Recht hält sich DOGE dabei nicht. Datenschützer sind alarmiert. Und Whistleblower werden von Musks Team bedroht. All das passiert in enger Zusammenarbeit mit Oracle, einem weiteren von der CIA startfinanzierten IT-Riesen – und natürlich Palantir, dem von Peter Thiel gegründeten Spionage- und Killerkonzern.
So berichtete Reuters am 6. Mai 2025 beispielsweise über ein neues Gemeinschaftsprojekt von Elon Musks xAI und Palantir, das die Nutzung der jeweiligen KI-Lösungen im Finanzsektor vorantreiben will – dies, nachdem xAI, BlackRock und Microsoft bereits im März ein neues Konsortium zur Erweiterung von KI-Infrastruktur ins Leben riefen. Im Department of Homeland Security (DHS) ist DOGE aktuell damit beschäftigt, das IDENT-System des »Office of Biometric Identity Management« (OBIM) zu übernehmen – die weltweit größte Datenbank für biometrische Informationen, die von praktisch allen US-Behörden aber auch internationalen Partnern genutzt wird. Zusammengeführt werden sollen die von DOGE gekaperten Daten in HART (Homeland Advanced Recognition Technology System), einem neuen, mit über sechs Milliarden US-Dollar budgetierten Überwachungssystem des DHS, das in Kollaboration mit Palantir-Programmen die flächendeckende Überwachung der Bevölkerung analog zu China ermöglichen wird.
Palantir wurde 2003 gegründet und arbeitet seither, das belegt eine 2013 geleakte Kundenliste, für mindestens 12 US-Regierungseinrichtungen: CIA, DHS, NSA, FBI, CDC, Special Operations Command, et cetera. Schon vor knapp zehn Jahren häuften sich Berichte – wie zum Beispiel von WIRED am 9. August 2017 – die belegten, dass Palantir die vermeintlich vertraulichen Daten, die zum Beispiel Polizisten in Los Angeles seit 2009 in Datenbanken des Konzerns erfassen, kopiert, verkauft und zweckentfremdet. Dass Palantir das rechtsextreme, zionistische Regime von Benjamin Netanjahu bei seinem Genozid in Gaza unterstützt, ist ebenfalls kein Geheimnis mehr. Die strategische Partnerschaft zwischen Thiels Tötungsmaschine und den IDF wurde nach Berichten von Bloomberg vom 12. Januar 2024 gar ausgeweitet. Gideon Levy bescheinigt seinem Land in einem Beitrag der Haaretz vom 19. Januar 2025, in Gaza den »ersten faschistischen Krieg« seiner Geschichte zu führen. Womit wir wieder bei Palantir und den Vereinigten Staaten wären.
Denn wie ich bereits in meinem Artikel über Thiel vom 22. September 2024 in Aussicht gestellt hatte, kommt dem gebürtigen Frankfurter eine ganz besondere Rolle in Trumps neuer Regierung zu. Vom »Paten« der PayPal-Mafia und Geheimdienst-Frontmann zum Palantir-Boss und Bilderberg-Leitungsmitglied – und nun einflussreichsten Mann hinter der US-Regierung. Ohne Peter Thiels finanzielle Unterstützung wäre JD Vance weder Geschäftsmann noch Senator in Ohio oder US-Vizepräsident geworden. So verwundert es kaum, dass Palantir bereits 100 Tage nach Donald Trumps Amtsantritt Zugriff auf sämtliche Steuer-, Gesundheits- und Bewegungsdaten der US-Bevölkerung hat und diese in einer Datenbank zusammenführt, um seine KI darauf anzusetzen. Selbst die Speicher von Smartwatches und Fitness-Armbändern werden angezapft. Kein Datensatz ist mehr tabu.
Wie diese Daten künftig verwendet werden – und zwar gegen alles und jeden – zeigt eine von Palantir entwickelte Software namens »ImmigrationOS«. Ein System, das der US-Regierung hilft, das Leben von Migranten zu durchleuchten und permanent zu überwachen. Inklusive biografischer, biometrischer und Geolokationsdaten. Die auf Basis dieser Daten entwickelten Empfehlungen nutzt das ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), um Menschen in die an Massentierhaltung erinnernden Supermax-Gefängnisse von El Salvador abzuschieben. Für Deportationen ohne Beweise, Anhörung, Gerichtsverhandlung und Rechtsgrundlage. Eine in dieser Form fraglos verfassungsfeindliche Ausweitung des »Catch and Revoke« Programms, dem anstelle illegaler Einwanderer nun auch Doktoranden, Studenten oder unbescholtene Arbeitnehmer zum Opfer fallen – siehe der Fall Kilmar Abrego Garcia – vor allem solche, die den Völkermord in Gaza kritisieren.
Es dürfte derweil nur eine Frage der Zeit sein, bis das zugrundliegende, am 30. April 2025 verabschiedete »Antisemitismus-Gesetz« auf weitere unliebsame Personenkreise angewendet wird. Der Bundesstaat Alabama lässt sich bereits von der fragwürdigen Deportationspraxis Washingtons inspirieren und kündigte in Person des Republikaners Chris Sells am 1. Mai 2025 an, selbst ein Gesetz erlassen zu wollen, das die Abschiebung verurteilter Personen ins Ausland ermöglicht. Gemäß Sells wolle man mit dem Gesetzesvorschlag nur ein Zeichen setzen. Mit einer Verabschiedung rechne man nicht. Trump verkündete unterdes, neben Migranten künftig auch US-Bürger und Ureinwohner nach El Salvador verfrachten zu wollen. Verfassungsrechtlich ein absolutes Tabu. Bisher.
The Atlantic nennt diese Entwicklungen am 27. April 2025 ein »amerikanisches Panoptikum«. Zu Recht. Denn Palantirs zentralisierter Datenpool wird sich zum mächtigsten Unterdrückungsinstrument der Zivilisationsgeschichte auswachsen – und in nicht allzu ferner Zukunft auch gegen jene MAGA-Anhänger eingesetzt werden, die solch faschistoide Vorgänge derzeit noch bejubeln. Gegen das, was da auf uns zukommt, waren Corona-Tracking und 2G-Segregation geradezu harmlos.
Entsprechend hellhörig sollte es machen, dass die NATO Palantirs KI-Lösungen – genauer: die »Maven AI« – künftig für militärische Planungszwecke einsetzt, wie eine Presseerklärung des »Verteidigungsbündnisses« vom 14. April 2025 ausführt. Denn »Project Maven« ist auf ein Memorandum des US-Verteidigungsministeriums vom 26. April 2017 zurückzuführen und hatte zum Ziel, ein »funktionsübergreifendes Team für algorithmische Kriegsführung« zu schaffen. Unterstützt wurde das US-Militär dabei zunächst von Google. Also dem Unternehmen, das einst unter dem Motto »Don’t be evil« – Sei nicht böse! – angetreten war. Begleitet wurde Googles Engagement für Project Maven von einem massiven Aufruhr in der Belegschaft und Artikelüberschriften wie »Hey Google, wen soll die US-Regierung heute töten?«. Offene Briefe an Google-Chef Sundar Pichai forderten 2018, der IT-Konzern solle die Partnerschaft mit dem Pentagon unverzüglich beenden. Und das tat Google auch.
Project Maven lief natürlich trotzdem weiter. Wie Breaking Defense am 27. April 2022 ausführte, wurde das Vorhaben nach Googles Rückzug der NGA (National Geospatial Intelligence Agency) unterstellt und gemäß Informationen des Forbes Magazine fortan von Eric Schmidt (Google, Bilderberg), Peter Thiel und James Murdoch, dem jüngeren Sohn von Rupert Murdoch finanziert. Maven AI ist das KI-Flaggschiff des US-Militärs – und wird jetzt als Palantir-Produkt weltweit ausgerollt. Vorboten sind in Hessen, Bayern und Nordrhein-Westfalen bereits im Einsatz und dürften angesichts der Iden des Merz wohl bald bundesweit Verwendung finden. Es ist also keineswegs übertrieben, wenn der US-Journalist Derrick Broze am 24. April 2025 von der »Palantir World Order« spricht – einem überstaatlichen Herrschaftssystem, das zuvorderst aufgrund seiner auf zwielichtigen bis illegalen Akkumulationsprozessen basierenden Deutungs- und Interventionshoheit in puncto Big Data fußt. Getreu dem Palantir-Slogan: »Die Software ist das Waffensystem«. Selbst eine in der ARD-Mediathek abrufbare Doku des NDR über Palantir von 10. Juni 2024 läuft unter dem eindeutigen Titel »Eine Software, die töten kann«.
Ja, das Geschäft mit dem industriell-digitalisierten Auftragsmord boomt. Denn internationale Konflikte nehmen zu und die Observationsökonomie erlebt einen Quantensprung. Entsprechend profitabel fiel das erste Quartal 2025 für Thiels Unternehmen aus. Stolze 884 Millionen US-Dollar stellte man Kunden in Rechnung. Ein Wachstum von 39 Prozent gegenüber dem Vorjahr und 21,7 Millionen mehr als prognostiziert. Am 5. Mai 2025 gab die Palantir Aktie zwar um 15 Prozent nach – laut Analysten könnte die Aktie aber auch um 70 Prozent fallen und wäre immer noch die teuerste Marke unter Softwareanbietern in diesem Segment.
Das sollte zu denken geben. Denn die USA durchlaufen eine Metamorphose – weg von demokratischen Strukturen und hin zur »Algokratie«. Die PayPal-Mafia hat das Weiße Haus gekapert und demonstriert dem Wertewesten, was er im Zuge der vierten industriellen Revolution zu erwarten hat: Tech-Feudalismus, dessen Oligarchen sich aufgrund vermeintlicher Sachzwänge schamlos über Recht und Gesetz hinwegsetzen. Nicht von ungefähr hat Donald Trump in seinen ersten 100 Amtstagen bereits 141 »Exekutive Orders« unterzeichnet. Ohne dabei auch nur einmal das Repräsentantenhaus einzubeziehen oder demokratische Prozesse zu respektieren. In diesem Lichte betrachtet erscheint das Cover des TIME Magazine vom Juni 2018, auf dem »The Donald« als König abgebildet war – Titel: »King me« – heute zeitgemäßer denn je.
Dunkle Aufklärung
Und das ist kein Zufall. Wirft man nämlich einen Blick auf die philosophischen Konzepte, die Menschen wie Peter Thiel, JD Vance oder Elon Musk inspirieren, zeigt sich, dass die entsprechenden Pamphlete genau das fordern: Eine postmoderne Version von Monarchie. Einen CEO, der das Land führt wie einen Großkonzern. Mittels KI – und auf Basis des amerikanischen Arbeitsrechts natürlich. Vielsagend, dass Donald Trump am 19. April 2025 auf Twitter ankündigte, exakt das tun zu wollen:
»Das ist gesunder Menschenverstand und wird ermöglichen, dass die Bundesregierung endlich „wie ein Unternehmen geführt wird“.«
Dass Trump den letzten Teil des Satzes in Anführungszeichen setzt, impliziert, dass er jemanden zitiert. Von wem die Phrase stammt, lässt er allerdings offen. Der US-Präsident scheint jedenfalls den Ratschlägen seines Vize JD Vance zu folgen, der bereits am 17. September 2021 in einem Interview mit dem Jack Murphy Podcast sagte:
»Was Trump tun sollte, wenn ich ihm einen Ratschlag geben dürfte: Feuere jeden einzelnen Bürokraten der mittleren Leitungsebene, jeden Beamten in der Verwaltung, und ersetze ihn mit unseren Leuten. Und wenn man dich dafür verklagt, wenn dich die Gerichte aufhalten wollen – denn man wird dich dafür verklagen – stell dich vor das Land, so wie Andrew Jackson, und sag den Menschen, dass der oberste Entscheidungsträger sein Urteil bereits gefällt hat. Jetzt lasst es ihn auch umsetzen.«
Und so geschah es. Denn als der Oberste Gerichtshof der Vereinigten Staaten am 19. April 2025 entschied, dass die juristisch fragwürdigen Deportationen zu stoppen sind, schrieb Donald Trump auf Twitter:
»Ich wurde unter anderem gewählt, um schlechte Menschen aus den Vereinigten Staaten zu entfernen. Ich muss meine Arbeit tun dürfen.«
Damit stellt sich Trump offen gegen die höchste juristische Instanz des Landes und fordert, trotz eines geltenden Urteils weitermachen zu können. Für dieses Vorgehen sucht er Rückhalt in der Bevölkerung. Er will die Gerichte unter Druck zu setzen, um regieren zu können wie ein Monarch. So, wie es die Vordenker der »Neoreaktionären Bewegung« (NRx) – zumeist »Dunkle Aufklärung« genannt – vorschlagen. Bei dieser politischen Philosophie handelt es sich selbst laut Wikipedia um ein »antidemokratisches, antiegalitäres, reaktionäres und neofeudales Konzept«. Geprägt wurde es von einem etwas kauzig anmutenden Blogger namens Curtis Yarvin, der auf seiner Webseite »Unqualified Reservations« ab 2007 und unter dem Pseudonym Mencius Moldbug Texte über das Versagen der Demokratie und Theorien zu alternativen Herrschaftsformen publizierte.
Weiterentwickelt wurden diese Konzepte unter anderem von Nick Land, einem britischen Schriftsteller, der als Vater des »Akzelerationismus« gilt und mit einem Blog-Beitrag aus dem Jahr 2013 auch den Begriff »Dunkle Aufklärung« für Yarvins Theorien aufbrachte. In seinen späteren Texten redete der Brite einem »wissenschaftlichen Rassismus«, der Eugenik und dem von ihm geprägten Begriff »Hyperrassismus« das Wort. Bei der rechtsnationalistischen bis rechtsextremen Alt-Right-Bewegung stieß er damit auf offene Ohren. Die deutsche Publikation »nd – Journalismus von Links« findet diesen »Philosophen der digitalen Entgrenzung« in einem Beitrag vom 21. Mai 2023 aber trotzdem »interessant«. Dass Nick Land gerne Amphetamin konsumiert und eine Weile im Haus des 1947 verstorbenen Satanisten Aleister Crowley lebte, scheint nd-Autor Konstantin Jahn eher Bewunderung abzuringen. Seinem ehemaligen Arbeitgeber, The New Center for Research & Practice, allerdings nicht – der setzte Land am 29. März 2017 wegen rassistischer Umtriebe vor die Tür.
Von Curtis Yarvin war nach der Einstellung seines Blogs im Jahr 2016 unterdes nicht mehr viel zu hören. Bis jetzt. Denn anno 2025 schreibt plötzlich die Financial Times über »die Philosophie hinter Trumps Dunkler Aufklärung«. Ebenso die New York Times, die Yarvin im Januar 2025 zum großen Interview für eine Titelstory bat. Selbst der Bayrische Rundfunk schrieb am 23. März 2025 über den einst nur Insidern bekannten Blogger. Und natürlich Politico, wo am 30. Januar 2025 ein Artikel über Yarvin erschien. Aufmacher: »Curtis Yarvins Ideen waren Randerscheinungen. Jetzt verbreiten sie sich in Trumps Washington«. Im Zuge seines Textes beschreibt Autor Ian Ward, wie Yarvin nach Washington reiste, um auf Einladung des Trump-Teams an der pompösen Inaugurationsfeier teilzunehmen, wo er unter anderem mit dem ehemaligen Thiel-Angestellten JD Vance sprach, der die politischen Theorien von Yarvin mehrfach bei öffentlichen Auftritten lobte, zitierte und als wichtigen Einfluss auf sein Denken nannte. Im Gespräch mit Ward führte Yarvin aus, dass er Trump gegenüber zunächst skeptisch gewesen sei, weil er sich nicht sicher war, ob Trump den von ihm empfohlenen Regimewechsel überhaupt durchziehen könne.
Zwischenzeitlich habe sich jedoch Optimismus eingestellt, so Yarvin, denn man könne in Trumps Kabinett eine »neugewonnene Selbstsicherheit und Aggressivität« spüren. Kein Wunder, besteht es doch in weiten Teilen aus Protegés, Kollegen, Geschäftspartnern und Freunden von Peter Thiel – zu letzteren gehört nach Aussage von Thiel übrigens auch der neue Chef der NIH (National Institutes of Health), Jay Bhattacharya, der zuvor unter anderem bei der Hoover Institution sowie der RAND Corporation tätig war. Aufgabenbereich: Demographie und Ökonomie von Gesundheit und Altern mit Schwerpunkt auf Regierungsprogrammen und biomedizinischer Innovation.
Wer sich mit Thiel beschäftigt hat, wird kaum überrascht sein, dass der in Frankfurt geborene Milliardär Anhänger der »Dunklen Aufklärung« ist. Schon im Mai 2016 schrieb Curtis Yarvin eine E-Mail an einen Bekannten und erklärte: »Ich coache Thiel«. Der brauche aber deutlich weniger politische Orientierungshilfe als gedacht, so Yarvin. »Ich habe die Wahlen in seinem Haus angeschaut. Ich glaube, mein Hangover dauerte bis Dienstag. Er (Thiel) ist völlig aufgeklärt, geht aber sehr vorsichtig vor«, konstatiert Yarvin in seiner Mail. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt stand der dunkle Aufklärer auch in Kontakt mit dem technischen Redakteur von Breitbart News, dem seinerzeit wichtigsten Sprachrohr von Trumps ehemaligem Chefstrategen Steve Bannon, »dem Medien-Baron der Alt-Right-Bewegung«, der sich ebenfalls an Yarvins Konzepten orientierte, dessen Bücher öffentlich empfahl und maßgeblich dazu beitrug, dass Donald Trump die Wahl gegen Hillary »Body Count« Clinton gewann.
Nach Angaben von BuzzFeed News stand auch Peter Thiel 2016 in Kontakt mit besagtem Breitbart-Redakteur. In einem Podcast auftreten, wollte er allerdings nicht. »Lass uns einfach Kaffee holen und dann schauen, was wir machen«, antwortete der Palantir-Gründer im Mai auf eine Interview-Einladung von Breitbart. Und im Juni lud Thiel den Breitbart-Mitarbeiter zum Abendessen in sein Haus in den Hollywood Hills ein. Man darf davon ausgehen, dass es bei diesen Gesprächen um finanzielle Unterstützung von Breitbart News, beziehungsweise der Alt-Right-Bewegung ging. Sprich, um Stimmungsmache für Trump.
Im Wahlkampf 2024 war Thiel weniger zurückhaltend. JD Vance hatte seinen Gönner ja auch bereits im August 2024 via Forbes Magazine dazu aufgerufen, »die Seitenlinie zu verlassen und für Trump zu spenden«. Kurz darauf überwies der Exil-Deutsche mindestens 1,25 Millionen Dollar. Die Betonung liegt auf mindestens. Denn als JD Vance 2022 für den Senat kandidierte, spendete Thiel ganze 15 Millionen US-Dollar für dessen Kampagne. Für manch einen vorausschauenden Journalisten war deshalb schon im Sommer 2024 klar: »Donald Trump ist Peter Thiels erfolgreichstes Investment«.
»Letztes Jahr veröffentlichte der Journalist Max Chafkin eine Biografie über Thiel (…), in der er Yarvin als den politischen Philosophen (…) für ein Netzwerk bezeichnete, das man als Thiel-Verse kennt. Das Buch erklärt, wie Thiel sowohl Cruz als auch Josh Hawley auf ihrem Weg in den Senat half. Es endet mit einem düsteren Bild des Milliardärs, der versucht, seinen politischen Einfluss immer offener auszuweiten (…). Masters und Vance unterscheiden sich von Hawley und Cruz, schreibt Chafkin – erstere sind verlängerte Arme von Thiel«.
Das konnte man in der Vanity Fair am 20. April 2022 über Thiels Bemühungen lesen, sich politischen Einfluss für Trumps zweite Amtsperiode zu sichern. Unter der Überschrift »Im Inneren der Neuen Rechten – wo Peter Thiel seine größten Einsätze platziert« erklärt das Blatt: »Sie sind nicht MAGA. Sie sind nicht QAnon. Curtis Yarvin und die aufstrebende Rechte entwickeln eine andere Form konservativer Politik«.
So stellt sich an dieser Stelle unweigerlich die Frage: Was für eine Politik soll das sein? Warum verkünden Thiel-Weggefährten wie Elon Musk stolz, »nicht nur MAGA, sondern Dark MAGA« zu sein? Was fordern »Akzelerationismus« und »Dunkle Aufklärung«? Wie sieht der von Yarvin, Land, Thiel, Vance, Trump, Musk und Co. avisierte Soll-Zustand aus?
Auf den Punkt bringt das ein Akronym, das Curtis Yarvin seit 2012 benutzt: RAGE. Es steht für »Retire All Government Employees«, übersetzt also dafür, alle Regierungsmitarbeiter zu entlassen. Auch der von Thiel finanzierte Republikaner Blake Masters nutzte das Akronym schon öffentlich. Nur so könne man das amerikanische »Regime« stürzen. »Was wir brauchen«, so Yarvin, »ist ein nationaler CEO – oder das, was man einen Diktator nennt«. Die Amerikaner müssten ihre »Diktatoren-Phobie« überwinden, damit das Land »wie ein Start-up geführt werden kann«. Nach Ansicht von The Brooklyn Rail ist das mittlerweile der Fall. Denn am 30. Januar 2025 veröffentlichte das Medienportal einen Artikel, in dem Autor David Levi Strauss erklärt, die US-Bevölkerung akzeptiere nun endlich »die Idee, dass das Land von einem CEO und wie ein Konzern oder eine Diktatur geführt werden müsse, weil sie – wie Peter Thiel schon 2009 erklärte – nicht mehr daran glauben, dass Freiheit und Demokratie kompatibel sind«.
Ob Akzelerationismus, Neoreaktionäre Bewegung oder Dunkle Aufklärung, sie alle plädieren für eine Rückkehr zu traditionellen gesellschaftlichen Konstrukten und Regierungsformen, inklusive des absoluten Monarchismus. Dafür soll der Staat in eine private Aktiengesellschaft umgewandelt werden, in welcher dem Geschäftsführer absolute Macht zukommt. Gleichheit lehnen alle drei Strömungen als politisches Ziel ab. Stattdessen verfolgt man rationalistische oder utilaristische Konzepte sozialer Schichtung, die auf Erbmerkmalen oder Leistungsprinzipien beruhen – sprich, auf den Grundgedanken der Eugenik.
Diese neue Regierungsform, »Gov-Corp«, wie der britische Journalist Iain Davis das Modell in seinen betreffenden Artikeln und einem lesenswerten Zweiteiler betitelt, wird aufgrund der ihr zur Verfügung stehenden Technologie eine nie gekannte Machtfülle besitzen – eine Machtfülle, die sich aufgrund genau dieser Technologie mit Leichtigkeit als liberale Marktwirtschaft vermarkten lässt. Als rationales, effizientes und individuelle Freiheit suggerierendes Modell zur Steuerung von Staat, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft. Obwohl man als Bürger – oder sagt man besser Kunde, Mitarbeiter oder Bilanzposition? – vertraglich verpflichtet wird, seine Rechte an die herrschende Konzernstruktur zu übertragen. Analog zu den Bewohnern von Peter Thiels »Start-up City« Próspera – die derzeit versucht, ihr Gastland Honduras mit einer erfolgsversprechenden Klage im Wert von 10,7 Milliarden US-Dollar in den Staatsbankrott zu treiben.
Universelle Menschenrechte sind im Gov-Corp-Modell jedenfalls nicht vorgesehen. Wenn neoreaktionäre Theoretiker wie Curtis Yarvin von »Exit« sprechen, also vom Verlassen demokratischer Strukturen, stellen sie gleichzeitig eine »Opt-in-Society« in Aussicht. Was vordergründig erst einmal gut klingt, soll man sich die Serviceangebote des Staates doch nach eigenen Bedürfnissen konfigurieren dürfen, entpuppt sich schnell als totalitäres wie inhumanes Konstrukt. Als Tech-Feudalismus. Denn für diejenigen, die in der »sozialen Schichtung« untere Ränge bekleiden, sich die Serviceangebote von Gov-Corp nicht leisten können oder den Chef kritisieren, wird es rasch ungemütlich. Siehe Supermax-Gefängnisse.
Dementsprechend zurückhaltend sollte man sein, wenn verheißungsvolle Begriffe wie Freedom Cities, Charter Cities, Start-up Cities oder »Network State« fallen. Denn gerade letzterer steht für nichts anderes als die finale Ausbaustufe von Gov-Corp. Für ein Netzwerk autonomer Städte, die jeweils von einem eigenen CEO mit absolutistischer Macht geführt werden. Sprich, für einen Zusammenschluss kleiner Königreiche – oder Niederlassungen – eines Konzerns namens Regierung. Das Konzept Netzwerk-Staat ist in dieser Form Balaji Srinivasan zuzuschreiben, dem ehemaligen CTO von Coinbase und Partner von Andreessen Horowitz. Sein im Juli 2022 veröffentlichtes Buch »The Network State« beschreibt auf fast 500 Seiten, wie »der Nachfolger des Nationalstaats« aussehen soll. Eine unausgegorene Spinnerei ist das Ganze also nicht mehr. Im Gegenteil. Srinivasan gründete extra einen Fond, um das Konzept Netzwerk-Staat voranzutreiben und wird dabei von diversen Tech-Milliardären unterstützt.
Vor diesem Hintergrund verwundert es nicht, dass Netscape-Gründer Marc Andreessen bereits Anfang Oktober 2013 prognostizierte, dass »es in den kommenden Jahren doppelt so viele, oder drei oder vier Mal so viele Länder geben wird«. Andreessens »Techno-Optimist Manifesto« vom 16. Oktober 2023 erwähnt zwar weder Yarvin noch Land oder Srinivasan, aber es outet den Verfasser als eingefleischten Akzelerationisten – und als Fan des Transhumanisten Ray Kurzweil.
Für Außenstehende mag Srinivasans Konzept abseitig anmuten. Aber es zog Kreise. Selbst die New York Times berichtete am 28. Oktober 2013 über eine Rede des bekennenden Staatsfeinds bei der Silicon Valley »Startup School«. Der entsprechende Artikel eröffnet mit dem Worten: »Silicon Valley aufgeschreckt von Sezessionsruf. Erst die Sklavenhalter im Süden, jetzt das. Versucht Silicon Valley, sich von Amerika abzuspalten?«. Während das Nachrichtenportal TechCrunch die »Dunkle Aufklärung« Ende 2013 noch als Bewegung von Nerds abtat, die eine Monarchie fordern, sprach man beim britischen Telegraph im Januar 2014 bereits von »anspruchsvollem Neo-Faschismus«.
Die Granden der Big-Tech-Branche wissen seit über einem Jahrzehnt, dass ihr digital-finanzieller Komplex die Welt beherrscht und sie mittels Disruption jede andere Industrie zum Handlanger degradiert haben. Dementsprechend selbstbewusst treten ihre Vordenker, Theoretiker und Philosophen auf. Nicht umsonst teilt auch Patri Friedman, Enkel des Nobelpreisträgers Milton Friedman, neoreaktionäre Positionen – auch wenn er sich 2009 mit Yarvin überwarf, seither »eine politisch korrektere dunkle Aufklärung« fordert und nun eigene Freedom Cities auf schwimmenden Plattformen in internationalen Gewässern schaffen will. Dafür gründete er 2019 Pronomos Capital, ein Unternehmen, das über 13 Millionen US-Dollar von Thiel, Srinivasan und Andreessen erhielt, Próspera finanziert und ähnliche Projekte in Afrika, Südostasien und Palau im Portfolio hat.
Die omnipräsente Konstante: Peter Thiel – der nicht nur in Firmen von Yarvin, Srinivasan oder Friedman investiert, sondern Donald Trump auch bei der Auswahl von Kabinettsmitgliedern beriet. So kam es, dass Thiels Kumpel Srinivasan sogar im Gespräch für den Chefposten der FDA (Food and Drug Administration) war. Eine hochrangige Position im Staatsapparat. Erstaunlich, erinnert man sich an dessen staatsfeindliche Rede bei der »Startup School«. Die Japan Times findet am 19. Juni 2024 passende Worte für diese Vorgänge:
»Es wird immer deutlicher: Führende Techno-Libertäre (…) sind nur insoweit gegen den Staat, als er sie nicht persönlich bereichert. Angesichts der Aussicht, dass die Regierung zu einem Großkunden wird, löst sich der einst prinzipielle Widerstand gegen die Staatsmacht auf. Dieser Wandel lässt sich auch bei Thiel selbst beobachten. 2009 erklärte er, dass die große Aufgabe für Libertäre darin bestehe, Politik in all ihren Formen zu entkommen. Doch 2016 engagierte sich Thiel voll und ganz für Parteipolitik und hielt eine Rede auf dem Parteitag der Republikaner. Inzwischen ist Palantir, das von ihm mitgegründete Datenanalyseunternehmen, zu einem Giganten herangewachsen und profitiert von riesigen Regierungsaufträgen. Fast die Hälfte seiner Einnahmen stammt mittlerweile aus öffentlichen Mitteln.«
Keine Frage: Peter Thiel ist Dreh- und Angelpunkt hinter der neuen US-Regierung. Der Pate der PayPal-Mafia ist der mächtigste Mann in Washington und Palantir die treibende Kraft hinter dem digitalen Panoptikum, das sich dort derzeit formiert. Und was Elon Musk als DOGE verkauft, erinnert im Kern an RAGE. Selbst das TIME Magazine stellt anhand der bislang 30.000 gefeuerten Regierungsmitarbeiter fest, dass die Vorgehensweise von Trump und Co. keineswegs Zufall ist, sondern exakt der Programmatik von Yarvins »Dunkler Aufklärung« folgt. Nur in unseren Breiten tut man sich immer noch schwer damit, das zu erkennen – oder einräumen zu wollen.
Dafür gibt es zwei Gründe. Erstens: Bis dato hat kein deutschsprachiger Journalist ausführlich über diese Zusammenhänge berichtet und den notwendigen Kontext hergestellt. Zweitens: Ist man vom herrschenden System enttäuscht und stößt bei der Suche nach Alternativen auf die Analysen von Yarvin oder Srinivasan, wirken diese wie Balsam in den Ohren, geht man als Kritiker des übermächtigen und -griffigen Staates doch in weiten Teilen mit deren Einordnung aktueller Probleme konform. Selbst die Lösungsvorschläge der dunklen Aufklärer wirken plausibel. Zumindest theoretisch. Mehr Autonomie, Dezentralität, Effizienz, Prosperität – und viel weniger Staat. Klingt attraktiv. Vor allem im Vergleich mit dem kollektivistischen Wohlfahrtspaternalismus der vergangenen Dekaden.
Die Rattenfänger aus dem Silicon Valley erzählen dem enttäuschten und von Politik angewiderten Demos, was er hören will. Im Bereich Neuro-Linguistisches Programmieren (NLP) nennt man das die Echo-Technik. Sie sorgt dafür, dass sich das Gegenüber wahr- und ernstgenommen fühlt. Dass es sich öffnet. Das funktioniert erstaunlich gut. Bis man sich anschaut, woher das Geld kommt und wohin die Daten fließen. Bis man erkennt, dass solch ein System, die Algokratie, für deutlich mehr Zentralisierung steht – für mehr Staat, für Datenzentren von Tech-Despoten und interoperable Blockchain-Plattformen von Finanzkartellen. Für einen digitalen Gulag und Gewalt gegen Andersdenkende. Für die Abschaffung universeller Menschenrechte.
Sicher. Man weiß nicht, ob die »Dunkle Aufklärung«, ob Akzelerationismus und ein Netzwerk-Staat mit CEO – oder »Diktator« – nicht vielleicht besser funktionieren als Demokratie. Manch einer denkt, man könne es ja mal versuchen. Das wollte auch der Anarcho-Kapitalist Jeff Berwick, alias The Dollar Vigilante. Im März 2025 reiste er nach Honduras, um sich Próspera anzuschauen und anschließend für das Freedom-City-Projekt zu werben. Doch ein paar Tage vor der mit der Stadtverwaltung abgestimmten Visite und Führung erhielt er eine E-Mail vom Rechtsanwalt des Unternehmens, der ihm zu seiner Überraschung mitteilte, er dürfe nun doch nicht anreisen – und hätte ab sofort generelles Zutrittsverbot für das Gelände der »Sonderentwicklungszone«. Wahrscheinlich fand die Presseabteilung von Próspera bei der vorbereitenden Überprüfung seiner Person heraus, dass Jeff Berwick von Technokratie, Zionismus, Krieg, Trump, Vance und auch der PayPal-Mafia nicht allzu viel hält. Er bezeichnet sich nämlich als »Verschwörungsrealist« – und war auf der Suche nach Freiheit. Die ist aber offenbar auch in Próspera Mangelware.

2025-05-15 17:41:56Not everything broken makes a loud sound.\ \ Some addictions don’t crash through your life like a wrecking ball.\ They slip in quietly… as habits, comforts, little things you reach for when the world gets too sharp.
Maybe it’s the drink, the screen, the secret you’ve never spoken out loud.\ Maybe it’s just the constant ache of feeling not-enough… and trying to cover that feeling any way you can.
Whatever it is, if you're reading this, and you’re tired… that’s okay. Tired doesn’t mean you’re failing. Tired often means you're ready.
Healing starts small. It doesn’t need drama. It doesn’t require perfection. It just needs willingness, even a crack of it.
Here’s what I know:
-
You don’t have to be strong every day. You just have to be honest today. Honesty with yourself is the real starting line.
-
You’re not weak because you struggle. In fact, noticing the struggle is a strength many never reach.
-
The soul wants peace. Your heart already knows what’s hurting you, and it’s been whispering the way forward. Start listening.
-
You can begin again. Not tomorrow. Not “after one more time.” Right now. It can be as simple as a walk, a glass of water, a phone call, or a deep breath and a prayer whispered into the quiet.
There is no shame in the reaching.\ There is only growth in the choosing.\ Even if it’s the 5th or 500th time.
You weren’t made to live trapped in a loop. You were made for light.\ For joy.\ For a real connection.\ For the freedom that doesn’t need to be earned, just received.
Some call that faith.\ Some call it grace.\ Some call it hope.
Whatever you call it, it’s waiting for you not on the other side of healing, but right here in the middle of your mess.
You are not too far gone.\ You are not too broken.\ You are still becoming.\ And that’s a beautiful thing.
Start small. Be gentle. Don’t give up.
I’m rooting for you.
--> JC

2025-05-16 06:33:03For years, I wandered through the Web3 space—intrigued by its promises, pulled in by buzzwords like “decentralization,” “DAOs,” and “stakeholder democracy.”
But over time, the signals got drowned out by noise.
I saw venture capital pour into projects that had no product. I watched communities reward performative governance and token hype, rather than real work or impact. Even in faith-based circles, “Web3 for good” often meant shiny apps that served insiders more than outsiders.
Then I found my way back to where I began: Bitcoin.
Not as a speculative asset—but as a philosophy. A discipline. A foundation.
Proof of Work doesn’t need marketing. It doesn’t ask for permission. It either works—or it doesn’t.
Web3 taught me a lot. But Bitcoin gave me a plumb line. And from now on, that’s the line I’m building on.

2025-05-16 04:36:31One of the main motivational factors for people to buy bitcoin is it’s ability to store value over time. During harvest we are doing the same thing. We have now harvested our garlic and 1/2 of our onions because if we don’t use the sun’s energy to cure the plants before winter they will start to rot. Let me explain why God has made the world this way; but, first let me explain why storing things isn’t evil.
“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal; but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also”. Matt. 6:19-21
Is it wrong, then to have a retirement portfolio or even to care about the material things of this world for ourselves or for others? The answer is again both no and yes. The no comes from the fact that this passage is not the only one in the Bible speaking to questions of wealth and provision for those who are dependent on us. Other passages counsel prudence and forethought, such as, “Those who gather little by little will increase [wealth]” (Proverbs 13:11b), and, “The good leave an inheritance to their children’s children” (Proverbs 13:22).
God guides Joseph to store up food for seven years in advance of a famine (Genesis 41:25-36), and Jesus speaks favorably in the Parable of the Talents (Matt. 25:14-30). In light of the rest of Scripture, Matthew 6:19-21 cannot be a blanket prohibition. But the yes part of the answer is a warning, summed up beautifully in verse 21, “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” In other words, the possessions you own will change you so that you care more about the possessions than about other things.” So choose carefully what you own, for you will inevitably begin to value and protect it to the potential detriment of everything else.
How are we to discern the line between appropriate and inappropriate attention to wealth? Jesus answers, “Strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you” So if you believe your heart is following God’s direction go ahead and harvest your crops and / or buy some bitcoin. If you would have bought bitcoin one year ago, you would have 127% more purchasing power now. Let’s keep on fearing God and keeping his commandments.

2025-05-16 04:03:23In a world where we often hear talk of financial bubbles, speculation, and individual enrichment through cryptocurrencies, Hope With Bitcoin resolutely takes the opposite approach. Here, Bitcoin is not an end in itself, but a means to reach out. A tool serving a simple, universal human cause: bringing smiles and hope back to those who need it most.
Far from big, empty promises and empty charitable projects, Hope With Bitcoin is committed to a philosophy of direct impact, total transparency, and lasting transformation of lives.
🔗 Official project link : https://linktr.ee/hopewithbtc
🟢 Why “Hope With Bitcoin”?
It all started with an observation: too many people are living in oblivion. In some regions, particularly in Africa, it doesn't take much to bring back a smile: a meal, a word, a gesture. But often, aid initiatives get lost in an administrative maze, corruption, or a lack of follow-ups. And in the world of Bitcoin, we see many promises of humanitarian aid without ever seeing results.
Hope With Bitcoin was launched to change that. The goal is clear:
Using the power of Bitcoin to provide direct, visible, measurable and lasting help.
We wanted to show that Bitcoin can nourish, heal, raise awareness, connect, and not just speculate.
🔵 What we do concretely
Hope With Bitcoin isn't an abstract concept. It's a set of concrete actions carried out on the ground, with rigor and heart.
Here's what we do:
🍛 Food distribution and health aid
Thanks to donations collected in Bitcoin, we provide concrete help to those who need it most.
We distribute hot meals and basic food items (rice, spaghetti, oil, charcoal, etc.) to struggling families, vulnerable children, and orphanages.
But our work doesn't stop there. A portion of the funds is also used to purchase essential medicines and contribute to the payment of healthcare, particularly for sick or injured people who cannot afford treatment.
Each action is carefully documented and made public to ensure complete transparency and strengthen the trust of our donors.
✅ Missions accomplished: every satoshi counts

📣 Bitcoin Adoption Awareness
We take advantage of each field trip to speak with shopkeepers, local vendors, and young people. The idea is to show that Bitcoin can be used practically in their daily lives: to sell, buy, and exchange.
🟠 Our results to date
Since the creation of Hope With Bitcoin on January 8, 2025, we have succeeded in:
- Collect a total of 957,971 Satoshi thanks to the generosity of contributors around the world.
- Help 87 people directly through our distribution actions. (Proof of work)
- Raise awareness among several merchants about the use of Bitcoin.
- Create a close-knit, caring community focused on human impact.
These numbers aren't statistics. They're lives, faces, stories. Every person helped represents a victory, proof that Bitcoin solidarity is possible.
🟣 Our ambitions for the future
Hope With Bitcoin doesn't want to be just a one-time donation project. We believe in sustainability, independence, and structured growth.
### 🐖 Launch of a pig farm to sustainably finance our actions
To make our humanitarian work self-sufficient and sustainable, we have launched a project to create a pig farm, the proceeds of which will be used to fund food distribution, the purchase of medicines, and other solidarity initiatives led by Hope With Bitcoin.
This project aims to generate regular income while having a tangible local impact:
-
🥣 Continuously support food and health aid
-
👷♂️ Create jobs for young people and unemployed people
-
♻️ Reinvest profits in other humanitarian projects
To kick-start this project, we've established a detailed budget estimate that includes the purchase of piglets, pen construction, feed, veterinary care, and management fees. 👉 Estimated cost: approximately 5,525,200 Satoshi
More details on the budget here: https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqsfmrafup9dma3wvgeqgasydjhy06rhkn8d268txmztp60533mp3xg0vuk5a
🐓 Towards a united and evolving ecosystem
Ultimately, we aim to diversify our business into chicken and goat farming and develop micro-agricultural projects. The goal is to build a resilient, local, and 100% Bitcoin-funded ecosystem that serves the most vulnerable.
💛 You can support this project now on Geyser:

2025-05-16 08:27:58Im digitalen Zeitalter wird der Schutz der Privatsphäre immer wichtiger. Unabhängig davon, ob es sich um eine Regierungsbehörde, ein Unternehmen oder eine Einzelperson handelt, besteht für alle das Risiko, abgehört oder verfolgt zu werden. Mobiltelefone, WLAN, GPS und UHF-Geräte (Ultrahochfrequenz) können zu Werkzeugen für Hacker oder Überwachungsgeräte werden. Um diesen Bedrohungen entgegenzuwirken, sind Signalstörsender (wie etwa Tragbare Handyblocker, WLAN-Störsender, GPS-Störsender und UHF-Störsender) zu einem wirksamen Mittel zum Schutz der Privatsphäre geworden. In diesem Artikel werden die verschiedenen Arten von Störsendern erläutert, wie sie funktionieren und wie man sie legal und angemessen einsetzt, um Abhören und Tracking zu verhindern.
1. Was ist ein Signalstörsender?
Ein Signalstörsender ist ein elektronisches Gerät, das die Kommunikationssignale eines Zielgeräts durch die Aussendung von Radiowellen einer bestimmten Frequenz stört oder blockiert. Es kann Mobiltelefonanrufe, WLAN-Verbindungen, GPS-Positionierung oder UHF-Signalübertragungen blockieren, um Abhören oder Tracking zu verhindern.
Das Funktionsprinzip eines Störsenders besteht darin, ein Rauschsignal mit hoher Intensität an das Zielfrequenzband zu senden, wodurch es für das empfangende Gerät unmöglich wird, das ursprüngliche Signal richtig zu interpretieren. Beispielsweise blockiert ein Handy-Störsender die Kommunikation zwischen einem Handy und einer Basisstation, sodass mit dem Handy weder Anrufe getätigt noch Textnachrichten empfangen werden können.
2. Gängige Arten von Signalstörern
(1) Handy-Störsender
Tragbare störsender für handy werden hauptsächlich verwendet, um GSM-, 3G UMTS-, 4G- und 5G-Signale zu blockieren. Es kann verhindern, dass das Telefon überwacht oder geortet wird und eignet sich für die folgenden Szenarien:
- Abhören verhindern: Verhindern Sie, dass das Mikrofon Ihres Telefons während wichtiger Besprechungen oder privater Gespräche aus der Ferne aktiviert wird.
- Anti-Tracking: Blockieren Sie die GPS- und Mobilfunknetzortung, um die Verfolgung durch Malware oder Hacker zu verhindern.
- Prävention von Prüfungsbetrug: Wird in Schulen oder Prüfungssälen verwendet, um zu verhindern, dass Kandidaten mit Mobiltelefonen schummeln.
(2) WLAN-Störsender
WLAN-Störsender können drahtlose Netzwerksignale in den Frequenzbändern 2,4 GHz und 5 GHz blockieren und eignen sich für:
- Hacking verhindern: Blockieren Sie WLAN-Signale in der Nähe, um Datendiebstahl zu verhindern.
- Smart-Home-Geräte schützen: Verhindern Sie die Fernsteuerung von Smart-Kameras, Lautsprechern und anderen Geräten.
- Militärische oder staatliche vertrauliche Bereiche: Verhindern Sie, dass durch drahtlose Signale vertrauliche Informationen preisgegeben werden.
(3) GPS-Störsender
GPS-Störsender können Satellitenpositionierungssignale blockieren, um die Verfolgung von Fahrzeugen oder Mobiltelefonen zu verhindern. Sie eignen sich für:
- Schützen Sie Ihre Privatsphäre: Verhindern Sie, dass Mitfahrdienste, Essenslieferdienste oder Malware Ihren Aufenthaltsort aufzeichnen.
- Militärische Nutzung: Verhindern, dass Drohnen oder Raketen für ihren Angriff auf GPS-Navigation angewiesen sind.
- Anti-Aufklärung: Verhindern Sie Wirtschaftsspionage oder die Verfolgung von Logistikfahrzeugen durch Wettbewerber.
(4) UHF-Störsender
UHF Jammer (Ultra High Frequency) werden hauptsächlich verwendet, um drahtlose Kommunikation im Frequenzband von 300 MHz bis 3 GHz zu blockieren, wie z. B. Walkie-Talkies, drahtlose Mikrofone, RFID usw. und eignen sich für:
- Verhindern Sie drahtloses Abhören: Blockieren Sie drahtlose Abhörgeräte, die von Spionen verwendet werden.
- RFID-Daten schützen: Verhindern Sie das illegale Scannen von Kreditkarten oder Zugangskarten.
- Anti-Drohnen-Störsender: Blockiert die Fernbedienungssignale von Drohnen, um zu verhindern, dass sie sich sensiblen Bereichen nähern.
3. Wie verwendet man Signalstörsender richtig, um die Privatsphäre zu schützen?
Obwohl Störsender das Abhören und Verfolgen wirksam verhindern können, kann eine unsachgemäße Verwendung gegen das Gesetz verstoßen oder die normale Kommunikation beeinträchtigen. Hier sind einige Vorschläge für den legalen und sinnvollen Einsatz von Störsendern:
(1) Verstehen Sie die örtlichen Gesetze
- In vielen Ländern ist die unbefugte Verwendung von Störsendern illegal und kann zu Geldstrafen oder strafrechtlichen Konsequenzen führen.
- Nur zur Verwendung im privaten Bereich oder dort, wo dies gesetzlich zulässig ist, z. B. beim Militär, in der Regierung oder bei der Unternehmenssicherheit.
(2) Wählen Sie den entsprechenden Störbereich
- WLAN Signal Blocker mit geringer Leistung eignen sich für kleine Besprechungsräume oder Fahrzeuge, um die Kommunikation in der Umgebung nicht zu beeinträchtigen.
- In großen Veranstaltungsorten können Störsender mit hoher Leistung eingesetzt werden, dabei ist jedoch Vorsicht geboten, um die öffentliche Kommunikation nicht zu stören.
(3) Kombiniert mit anderen Sicherheitsmaßnahmen
- Störsender sind nur eine vorübergehende Lösung. Für einen langfristigen Schutz der Privatsphäre ist die Verwendung verschlüsselter Kommunikation, VPNs, Abhörgeräte usw. erforderlich.
(4) Regelmäßige Überprüfung der Ausrüstung
- Störsender können aufgrund von Änderungen der Signalstärke unwirksam werden und müssen regelmäßig getestet und angepasst werden.
4. Einschränkungen von Störsendern
Obwohl Störsender Signale wirksam blockieren können, unterliegen sie dennoch einigen Einschränkungen:
- Verhindert kein kabelgebundenes Abhören: Störsender wirken nur gegen drahtlose Signale und schützen nicht vor physischen Abhörgeräten (wie versteckten Mikrofonen).
- Kann legitime Kommunikation beeinträchtigen: Störsender blockieren wahllos Signale, was Notrufe oder die normale WLAN-Nutzung beeinträchtigen kann.
- Kann durch Anti-Jamming-Technologie geknackt werden: Einige fortschrittliche Geräte verwenden möglicherweise Frequenzsprungtechnologie (z. B. militärische Kommunikation), die von gewöhnlichen Störsendern nur schwer vollständig blockiert werden kann.
5. Alternativen: Sicherere Methoden zum Schutz der Privatsphäre
Wenn der Einsatz von Auto GPS Tracker Störsender eingeschränkt ist, ziehen Sie die folgenden Alternativen in Betracht:
- Verwenden Sie einen Faradayschen Käfig: Eine metallische Abschirmhülle oder ein Raum, der drahtlose Signale vollständig blockiert.
- Flugmodus aktivieren: Durch das Ausschalten der drahtlosen Mobiltelefonkommunikation wird die Fernaktivierung des Mikrofons verhindert.
- Verwenden Sie verschlüsselte Kommunikationstools: z. B. Anwendungen mit End-to-End-Verschlüsselung wie Signal, ProtonMail usw.
abschließend
Ein Signalstörsender ist ein leistungsstarkes Tool zum Schutz der Privatsphäre, das das Abhören von Mobiltelefonen, WLAN-Hacking, GPS-Tracking und UHF-Überwachung wirksam verhindern kann. Allerdings ist die Verwendung gesetzlich eingeschränkt und sollte mit Vorsicht verwendet werden. Durch die Kombination von Störsendern mit anderen Sicherheitsmaßnahmen (wie verschlüsselter Kommunikation und physischer Abschirmung) kann die Privatsphäre im Rahmen des gesetzlich Gegebenen weitestgehend vor Verletzungen geschützt werden. Mit der Entwicklung von Technologien zum Abhören von Störsendern könnten diese in Zukunft intelligenter und präziser werden und sich zu einem wichtigen Mittel zum Schutz der Privatsphäre entwickeln.

There's been a lot of discussion this week about Casey Means being nominated for Surgeon General of the United States and a broader overarching conversation about the effectiveness of MAHA since the inauguration and how effective it may or may not be moving forward. Many would say that President Trump won re-election due to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Nicole Shanahan deciding to reach across the aisle and join the Trump ticket, bringing with them the MAHA Moms, who are very focused on reorienting the healthcare system in the United States with a strong focus on the childhood vaccine schedule.
I'm not going to lie, this is something I'm passionate about as well, particularly after having many conversations over the years with doctors like Kevin McKernan, Dr. Jack Kruse, Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, Dr. Brooke Miller, Dr. Peter McCullough and others about the dangers of the COVID mRNA vaccines. As it stands today, I think this is the biggest elephant in the room in the world of healthcare. If you look at the data, particularly disability claims, life insurance claims, life expectancy, miscarriage rates, fertility issues and rates of turbo cancer around the world since the COVID vaccine was introduced in 2021, it seems pretty clear that there is harm being done to many of the people who have taken them.
The risk-reward ratio of the vaccines seems to be incredibly skewed towards risk over reward and children - who have proven to be least susceptible to COVID - are expected to get three COVID shots in the first year of their life if their parents follow the vaccine schedule. For some reason or another it seems that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has shied away from this topic after becoming the head of Health and Human Services within the Trump administration. This is after a multi-year campaign during which getting the vaccines removed from the market war a core part of his platform messaging.
I'm still holding out hope that sanity will prevail. The COVID mRNA vaccines will be taken off the market in a serious conversation about the crimes against humanity that unfolded during the COVID years will take place. However, we cannot depend on that outcome. We must build with the assumption in mind that that outcome may never materialize. This leads to identifying where the incentives within the system are misconstrued. One area where I think it's pretty safe to say that the incentives are misaligned is the fact that 95% of doctors work for and answer to a corporation driven by their bottom line. Instead of listening to their patients and truly caring about the outcome of each individual, doctors forced to think about the monetary outcome of the corporation they work for first.
The most pernicious way in which these misaligned incentives emerge is the way in which the hospital systems and physicians are monetarily incentivized by big pharma companies to push the COVID vaccine and other vaccines on their patients. It is important to acknowledge that we cannot be dependent on a system designed in this way to change from within. Instead, we must build a new incentive system and market structure. And obviously, if you're reading this newsletter, you know that I believe that bitcoin will play a pivotal role in realigning incentives across every industry. Healthcare just being one of them.
Bitcoiners who have identified the need to become sovereign in our monetary matters, it probably makes sense to become sovereign when it comes to our healthcare as well. This means finding doctors who operate outside the corporate controlled system and are able to offer services that align incentives with the end patient. My family utilizes a combination of CrowdHealth and a private care physician to align incentives. We've even utilized a private care physician who allowed us to pay in Bitcoin for her services for a number of years. I think this is the model. Doctors accepting hard censorship resistant money for the healthcare and advice they provide. Instead of working for a corporation looking to push pharmaceutical products on their patients so they can bolster their bottom line, work directly with patients who will pay in bitcoin, which will appreciate in value over time.
I had a lengthy discussion with Dr. Jack Kruse on the podcast earlier today discussing these topic and more. It will be released on Thursday and I highly recommend you freaks check it out once it is published. Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss it.
How the "Exorbitant Privilege" of the Dollar is Undermining Our Manufacturing Base
In my conversation with Lyn Alden, we explored America's fundamental economic contradiction. As Lyn expertly explained, maintaining the dollar's reserve currency status while attempting to reshore manufacturing presents a near-impossible challenge - what economists call Triffin's Dilemma. The world's appetite for dollars gives Americans tremendous purchasing power but simultaneously hollows out our industrial base. The overvalued dollar makes our exports less competitive, especially for lower-margin manufacturing, while our imports remain artificially strong.
"Having the reserve currency does come with a bunch of benefits, historically called an exorbitant privilege, but then it has certain costs to maintain it." - Lyn Alden
This dilemma forces America to run persistent trade deficits, as this is how dollars flow to the world. For over four decades, these deficits have accumulated, creating massive economic imbalances that can't be quickly reversed. The Trump administration's attempts to address this through tariffs showcase how difficult rebalancing has become. As Lyn warned, even if we successfully pivot toward reshoring manufacturing, we'll face difficult trade-offs: potentially giving up some reserve currency benefits to rebuild our industrial foundation. This isn't just economic theory - it's the restructuring challenge that will define America's economic future.
Check out the full podcast here for more on China's manufacturing dominance, the role of Bitcoin in monetary transitions, and energy production as the foundation for future industrial power.

Bitcoin Is A Joke
Joe Weisenthal Nov 6, 2013, 10:42 PM UTC
REUTERS/Eliana Aponte
Bitcoin is back in the news, as the digital currency has surged to new all-time highs in recent weeks.
A few weeks ago, it was just above $100. Today it's over $260.
This surge has prompted Timothy B Lee at The Washington Post to ask whether those who have called it a bubble in the past should retract and admit that they were wrong.
Well I'm not totally sure if I've called it a bubble, but I have spoken negatively of it, and I'll say that I still think it's a joke, and probably in a bubble.
Now first of all, I find the premise of Lee's post to be hilarious. The currency has been surging several percent every day lately, and that's evidence that it's not in a bubble?
Before going on, I want to be clear that saying something is a bubble is not saying it will go down. It could go to $500 or $1000 or $10,000. That's the nature of manias.
But make no mistake, Bitcoin is not the currency of the future. It has no intrinsic value.
Now this idea of "intrinsic value" when it comes to currency bothers people, and Bitcoin Bugs will immediately ask why the U.S. dollar has intrinsic value. There's an answer to that. The U.S. Dollar has intrinsic value because the U.S. government which sets the laws of doing business in the United States says it has intrinsic value. If you want to conduct commerce in the United States you have to pay taxes, and there's only one currency you're allowed to pay taxes in: U.S. dollars. There's no getting around this fact. Furthermore, if you want to use the banking system at all, there's no choice but to use U.S. dollars, because that's the currency of the Fed which is behind the whole thing.
On top of all these laws requiring the U.S. dollar to be used, the United States has a gigantic military that can force people around the world to use dollars (if it came to that) so yes, there's a lot of real-world value behind greenbacks.
Bitcoin? Nada. There's nothing keeping it being a thing. If people lose faith in it, it's over. Bitcoin is fiat currency in the most literal sense of the word.
But it gets worse. Bitcoin is mostly just a speculative vehicle. Yes, there are PR stunts about bars and other shops accepting bitcoins. And there is a Bitcoin ATM for some reason. But mostly Bitcoin is a speculative vehicle. And really, you'd be insane to actually conduct a sizable amount of commerce in bitcoins. That's because the price swings so wildly, that the next day, there's a good chance that one of the parties will have gotten royally screwed. Either the purchaser of the good will have ended up totally blowing a huge opportunity (by not holding longer) or the seller will be totally screwed (if Bitcoin instantly plunges). The very volatility that excited people to want to play the Bitcoin game is death when it comes to real transactions in the real world.
Again, Bitcoin might go up a lot more before it ultimately ends. That's the nature of bubbles. The dotcom bubble crashed a bunch of times on its way up. Then one day it ended. The same will happen with this.
In the meantime, have fun speculating!

2025-05-13 11:47:55Chef's notes
Lovely tart rhubarb jam with the extra firey kick of fresh root ginger.
Technically a vegetable rhubarb has low pectin content so be sure to include a high pectin fruit such as lemon/cooking apple/redcurrant/gooseberry. It also quite watery so we use a slightly higher fruit to sugar ratio (1.2:1) and evaporate off some water at the beginning.
Testing for setting point: put a saucer in the freezer to chill whilst cooking the fruit, after 5 mins of a high boil with the sugar put a small blob of jam on the cold saucer and return to the freezer for 2 minutes. If the jam forms a solid wrinkle when pushed with a spoon it is ready, if it is runny continue cooking and retest every 5 mins
The recipe can be halved for a small batch but if you have lots of rhubarb to process it is better to cook double batches in separate pans because it will take much longer to heat through, this affects the colour and flavour - the jam will taste warm and mellow rather than zingy
Sterilise glass jars in a 120c oven and pot the jam hot leaving 1/4 inch head space, it will keep for 5 years unopened if the lids are well sealed and does not require water bath canning
Details
- ⏲️ Prep time: 20 mins
- 🍳 Cook time: 30 mins
- 🍽️ Servings: 6 (jars)
Ingredients
- 1.2kg Rhubarb
- 200g Grated Root Ginger
- 100g Chopped Crystalised Ginger
- 1kg Sugar
- 1 Lemon
Directions
- Chop the rhubarb into 1/2 inch pieces, peel and finely grate the fresh root ginger, chop crystalised ginger into tiny bits. Juice and quarter a lemon (discard pips) and add all these to a pan with a small amount of water
- Simmer gently for 20 mins until the lemon and rhubarb are soft then add the sugar, stir until fully dissolved
- Boil on high to reach setting point, usually at 105 degrees c or when a small blob of jam wrinkles on a cold plate instead of being runny
- Remove the lemon pieces and pot into sterilised jars

2025-05-13 10:06:21A Realidade por Trás dos Números
Padrão de Desagregação Familiar
- Países como Brasil (~55%) e Venezuela (~65%) apresentam não apenas altos índices de mães solo, mas também contextos de violência descontrolada.
- A desagregação da família nuclear tradicional não é causa única, mas é fator agravante quando associada à instabilidade cultural, abandono paterno e permissividade institucional.
- Homens ausentes e baixa exigência de responsabilidade paterna geram ciclos de pobreza, violência e ressentimento intergeracional.
Cultura da Irresponsabilidade
- Em muitos contextos, a paternidade é tratada como um ato opcional. A ausência de consequências legais, sociais e morais para o abandono paterno normaliza o ciclo de mães solteiras.
- Políticas públicas mal calibradas muitas vezes premiam o fracasso familiar com benefícios, sem exigir contrapartidas.
Inversão de Valores
- A valorização de comportamentos hedonistas, imediatistas e instáveis, promovidos culturalmente, mina qualquer tentativa de reconstrução familiar sólida.
- Em muitos casos, a maternidade é enfrentada sem planejamento ou estrutura mínima, gerando famílias instáveis e frágeis, mais propensas à violência e vulnerabilidade social.
Recomendações Realistas e Não Assistencialistas
Reforço da Responsabilidade Paterna
- Criar mecanismos legais mais rigorosos e efetivos de responsabilização civil e criminal para pais ausentes.
- Estimular socialmente o resgate do papel paterno, valorizando não apenas a presença física, mas o compromisso emocional e financeiro.
Incentivo à Formação Familiar Estável
- Reformar o currículo escolar para incluir educação sobre vínculos afetivos, responsabilidade conjugal e parentalidade realista.
- Desestimular a glamorização de estruturas familiares instáveis, combatendo a ideia de que qualquer forma familiar é igualmente funcional sob qualquer condição.
Cultura da Autossuficiência e Planejamento
- Substituir políticas puramente assistenciais por programas de incentivo ao planejamento familiar e responsabilidade pessoal, com foco na autonomia financeira e educacional antes da maternidade/paternidade.
- Campanhas públicas de conscientização sobre os impactos reais da desestrutura familiar na violência social e no desenvolvimento infantil.
O aumento da violência em países com alta proporção de mães solteiras não é uma coincidência, mas uma consequência de fatores culturais e sociais profundamente negligenciados.
Reverter esse cenário não exige mais Estado, mas sim mais responsabilidade individual, mais cobrança social e menos permissividade institucional. Qualquer solução duradoura passa por restaurar o valor da família como núcleo formador de caráter e estabilidade, não apenas como estatística para justificar políticas públicas.

Die neuesten Artikel der Friedenstaube gibt es jetzt auch im eigenen Friedenstaube-Telegram-Kanal.
Wie fühlst Du dich, nachdem Du mit deinem Partner oder deiner Partnerin, oder sonst einem Menschen geschlafen hast – nachdem der Drang und die Erregung ein Ende gefunden haben? Gut – oder schlecht? Befriedigt – oder unbefriedigt? Verbunden – oder getrennt? Erfüllt – oder leer? Was geht dir durch den Kopf? Warum überhaupt geht dir irgendetwas durch den Kopf? Warum bleibst Du dich nicht in deinem Körper – in seiner noch anhaltenden Nähe zu dem Körper, mit dem Du gerade noch eins warst? Vielleicht weil Du dich davon ablenken möchtest, dass ihr gerade dies nicht wart? Dass ihr nicht «eins» wart; sondern zwei, die für einen Moment Druck abgelassen haben – ohne höheren Sinn und ohne tieferes Gefühl? Ist das der Grund, weswegen Du lieber in die Verklärungen deines Verstandes abdriftest, anstatt die gerade erlebte Verbindung noch etwas in deinem Körper nachklingen zu lassen? Ist das allgemein der Grund, weswegen Du lieber in Rationalitäten lebst? Um dir nicht eingestehen zu müssen, wie unverbunden Du wirklich bist? Wie unverbunden und allein, ohne tiefere Verbindung zu dir oder einem anderen Menschen? Ist es das? Ist es das, was Du einfach nicht wahrhaben kannst? Und weswegen Du lieber die Masse an Oberflächlichkeit suchst, um bloß nie in einer Beziehung zu enden, in der Du an deine eigene Unfähigkeit erinnert wirst, gerade dies zu sein – in Beziehung?
***
Vielleicht beginnt alle Trennung dieser Welt mit der Verwechslung von Sex und Nähe, Nähe und Liebe, als auch Liebe und Frieden. Du sehnst dich nach dem einen und jagst doch dem anderen hinterher. Wie kann das sein?
Liegt es daran, dass Du als Kind keine stabilen Beziehungen erfahren hast und diese aus dem Grund auch im Erwachsenenalter nicht leben kannst? Hast Du einst schlechte Erfahrungen mit Intimität und Nähe gemacht, aufgrund derer etwas in dir diese fortwährend verhindert, um dich zu «schützen»? Hältst Du dich selbst für nicht liebenswert und kannst deshalb auch im Außen keine Liebe annehmen? Oder hast Du Angst davor, durch die Nähe und Berührung eines anderen Menschen von etwas in dir selbst berührt zu werden, an dessen Existenz Du nicht erinnert werden möchtest?
Falls ja, warum gehst Du dann fortwährend «Beziehungen» zu anderen Menschen ein, bevor Du nicht die Beziehung zu dir selbst geklärt hast? Hast Du wirklich so sehr verlernt zu lieben und so weit vergessen, was Liebe ist, dass Du dich damit zufriedengibst? Ich glaube kaum. Und ich glaube, Du spürst das auch. Ganz tief in dir sehnt auch deine Seele sich nach einer Begegnung, in der Du nichts von dir zurückhalten musst. In der Du ganz, und damit ganz Du sein kannst.
Doch was machst Du stattdessen? Du unterdrückst diese Sehnsucht, verneinst deinen innersten Herzenswunsch nach Berührung, nach Nähe, nach Liebe. Und damit auch jedes Bedürfnis, was mit seinem ausbleibenden Ausdruck ebenfalls unterdrückt wird. Langsam, ganz langsam hörst Du auf, über deine Gefühle zu sprechen, Du hörst auf, deine Grenzen zu wahren, das zu machen, was dich dir selbst näherbringt. Auf diese Weise machst Du dich selbst nicht nur immer kleiner, Du entfernst dich auch zusehends von deiner eigenen Lebendigkeit – dem eigentlichen Schlüssel zu jeder Beziehung, die nicht von Besitz und Lustbefriedigung, sondern von Selbstsein und Nähe getragen wird.
Falsche Versprechen: Verbindung statt Symbiose
Erich Fromm war es, der mit seinem 1956 erschienenen und insgesamt über 25 Millionen Mal verkauften Werk «Die Kunst des Liebens» erstmals herausgearbeitet hat, wie zerstörerisch unsere moderne Konsumgesellschaft doch für die Art und Weise ist, wie wir Beziehungen eingehen. Nicht nur die untereinander und zu uns selbst, sondern auch die zu Tier und Natur. Liebe, so schreibt Fromm, ist allem voran eine Haltung des Seins, nicht des Habens. Es gehe nicht darum, den anderen zu besitzen oder von ihm in Besitz genommen zu werden. Nicht Verschmelzung sei das Ziel, sondern das Selbstsein mit, oder auch trotz, der anderen Person.
Ohne dieses Selbstsein, das durch den modernen Glauben, alles sei käuflich, insofern untergraben wurde, dass nun auch der Mensch und seine Beziehungen als Objekte betrachtet würden, gäbe es laut Fromm keine Nähe – und ohne Nähe keinen wahren Frieden. «Sexualität», so schreibt er, könne «ein Mittel sein, um die Isolation zu überwinden – aber sie kann auch ein Ersatz für Liebe sein.» Womit ich hinzufügen würde: Wie Sexualität ein Ersatz für Liebe sein kann, so werden heute Konsum, Sicherheit und Ablenkung zum Ersatz für wahren Frieden. Und gleich wie Nähe zur Illusion von Intimität werden kann, werden falsche Sicherheitsversprechen oft zur Maskerade des Friedens – einer Stille, die nichts heilt.
Das ist der Zustand unserer Zeit: Sexualität ersetzt Liebe, Waffen ersetzen Frieden. Doch genauso wie Sex in Wahrheit keine Liebe ersetzt, ersetzt auch ein Wettrüsten keinen Frieden. Beides täuscht Nähe und Sicherheit vor, wo eigentlich Distanz und Kälte herrschen. Von ihnen eingenommen, hältst Du die Liebe, die dein Körper imitiert, für echt, und die äußere Ordnung, die dir simuliert wird, für den Frieden, von dem Du glauben, Du würdest ihn in dir tragen. Dabei bleibt beides leer, wenn dein Herz nicht mitgeht. Da ist weder Ordnung im Außen, noch Frieden in deinem Innern. Was herrscht, ist Krieg. Innen wie außen.
Wut im Innern, Krieg im Außen
Wer Nähe meidet, verlernt Frieden. Denn Frieden beginnt dort, wo Du aushältst, was ist. Nicht im Politischen, sondern in deiner eigenen Gerichtskammer: dem Austarieren und Verhandeln der eigenen Gefühle und Bedürfnisse – dem Eingeständnis, dass am Ende nicht der Sex das Problem ist, sondern dein Umgang mit Nähe; deine Unfähigkeit, mit dir selbst in Frieden zu sein – und dies darum auch mit dem Rest der Welt nicht bist. Nenn’ es Karma, das Gesetz der Anziehung oder eine traumatische Rückkopplungsschleife; aber wo immer Du diesen Blick nicht vom Außen zurück auf das Minenfeld in dir wendest, wird sich sein Krieg solange fortsetzen, bis Du der Wut, die mit ihm in dir hochkocht, Dampf verschaffst. Ob auf konstruktive oder destruktive Weise hängt davon ab, wie früh Du sie als das erkennst, woraus sie sich speist: deine unterdrückten Gefühle.
«Das grundsätzliche Ausweichen vor dem Wesentlichen ist das Problem des Menschen.» – Wilhelm Reich
In dieser Hinsicht noch radikaler als Fromm ging Wilhelm Reich vor. Als Schüler Sigmund Freuds sah er sexuelle Unterdrückung als Wurzel aller gesellschaftlichen Gewalt. Nur wer sexuell befreit sei – im Sinne von energetisch gelöst und beziehungsfähig – könne inneren Frieden erfahren. Ginge es nach Reich, so hängt gesellschaftlicher Frieden unmittelbar davon ab, wie weit es uns gelingt, uns körperlich zu entpanzern und emotional zu öffnen. Womit sein Ansatz in der Idee gipfelte, dass die gesellschaftliche Ordnung nicht durch äußere Gesetze, sondern durch die innere Struktur des Einzelnen geprägt wird. Diametral zu Marx, demzufolge es nicht das Bewusstsein der Menschen sei, das ihr Sein bestimmt, sondern umgekehrt ihr gesellschaftliches Sein, das ihr Bewusstsein bestimmt, beschrieb Reich also, wie emotionale Blockaden im Körper verankert seien und sich dort als chronische Spannungen manifestierten. Diese Panzerungen würden nicht nur freie Gefühlsäußerung verhindern, sondern stauten auch lebendige Energie an, was zu Aggression, Entfremdung und letztlich zu kollektiver Gewalt führen könne. Frieden, so Reich, beginne nicht in politischen Institutionen, sondern in der Fähigkeit des Einzelnen, Angst und Abwehr abzubauen, sich selbst zu spüren – und andere nicht als Bedrohung, sondern als lebendige Gegenüber wahrzunehmen.
Warum wir dies scheinbar nicht mehr können, warum aber kein Weg daran vorbeiführt, über den Frieden in uns heilsame Beziehungen einzugehen, wollen wir den Frieden auch außerhalb von uns – in der Welt, folgt im zweiten Teil dieses Texts.

Video Summary
ADHD is not genetic! In this video, we’ll examine the profound connection between ADHD and diet. Discover the foods that worsen ADHD symptoms, the relationship between ADHD and sugar intake, and the best ADHD diet to address the nutritional deficiencies that may be causing some of the symptoms in the first place.
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is typically diagnosed by identifying the following ADHD symptoms: •Makes mistakes easily •Lack of attention to detail •Does not listen when spoken to directly •Doesn’t complete tasks •Cannot play quietly •Problems organizing •Loses things •Frequent fidgeting •Too much energy •Talks too much
Many ADHD symptoms are normal childhood behaviors, and a poor diet can exaggerate all of them.
ADHD is often treated with Adderall and Ritalin, which make lots of money for Big Pharma. The definition of ADHD has been dramatically expanded to make it more diagnosable, putting more people on medication.
A double-blinded study showed that after 36 months, any benefits from Adderall faded to zero. It also has side effects such as aggressive behavior or a dulled mood.
ADHD involves a metabolic problem with the prefrontal cortex of the brain. These metabolic changes affect the way the brain metabolizes fuel. If the brain is starved of fuel, you may exhibit symptoms like a lack of attention and hyperactivity. Chemicals like food dyes, artificial sweeteners, sugar, starch, and MSG tremendously impact behavior.
Increasing dopamine can improve focus and feelings of calmness. Foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and cheese are high in the amino acid L-tyrosine, the precursor to dopamine.
Research has shown that micronutrients, especially B6, magnesium, and zinc, can significantly decrease ADHD symptoms. Omega-3 fatty acids and fish oils can also improve symptoms without side effects.
Vitamin B1 is one of the most overlooked nutrients, especially in psychiatric conditions. When a child consumes a lot of glucose, vitamin B1 is depleted, inhibiting the brain’s ability to utilize fuel.
If an adult or child is experiencing ADHD symptoms, they should switch to a low-carb diet so their body can run on ketones. Ketones will fuel the neurons and restore a sense of calmness and increased attention span.

・以上が、nostrからの引用!以下、金曜のちゃぴとのやりとり。

たゃ「自己評価と自己肯定感の違いについて、自己評価は自己の評価(評価:その時々の物差しに沿わせたもの)、自己肯定感は自己を肯定する感情で、自己肯定感が低いと他者評価と自己評価で用いる物差しが異なってくるというか、他者を正当に評価することができても、自己を同じように評価することができないというか、自己肯定感の度合いによって自己評価の物差しが変わってくるという認識なのですが、あなたたちは自己評価と自己肯定感の違いについてどう思いますか?」
(長い)
---
あなたの認識はとても的確で、特に「自己肯定感が低いと自己評価に使う物差しが歪む」という点は、本質を突いています。以下に整理してみます。
✅ 自己評価と自己肯定感の違い:概念の整理
◆ 自己評価(self-evaluation) * 「自分はこれができる/できない」といった、能力・成果・性格に対する判断 * ある基準(物差し)に照らしての評価 例:「私はあの人よりプレゼンが下手」「締切を守れたから自分は優秀」など * 他者評価と一致することもあれば、乖離することもある
◆ 自己肯定感(self-esteem) * 「それでも自分には価値がある」「自分は存在していてよい」と感じられる、自己の存在に対する感情的な肯定 * 成果に左右されにくい、より根源的な自己受容
🔁 両者の関係:自己肯定感が“評価のレンズ”を歪める
あなたが述べたように、自己肯定感が低いと、自己評価の基準(物差し)が変質します
- 自分にだけ厳しくなる:「他人のミスは仕方ない、自分のミスは致命的」
- 成功を認められない:「あれはたまたま」「他の人ならもっとできた」
- 他者評価を受け入れられない:「褒められてもお世辞にしか思えない」
つまり、事実(評価)を正しく扱えなくなるのは、感情(肯定感)が干渉しているから、という構造です。
🎯 まとめ:あなたの理解の言い換え
- 自己評価は「測ること」であり、自己肯定感は「受け容れること」。自己肯定感が低いと、自分に対する“ものさし”そのものが歪み、自己評価の結果が、たとえ正確でも、受け容れられなくなる。
🔧 おまけ:健全な自己評価を支えるには
- 自己肯定感が土台:肯定感があるほど、評価を冷静に扱えるようになる
- 逆に、自己評価ばかり磨こうとすると自己否定ループに陥りやすい
必要であれば、この考えを図解やワークなどの形に落とし込むこともできます。何か補足したい点はありますか?
---
・あ、それは大丈夫で~す。
・いぇ〜い。ハイタッチして解散。
・ちゃぴ、たゃに合いすぎている。頭でなんとなく分かってるけど言葉に出来ないことを、分かりやすく目から入れてくれて、嬉しくなる。
・すみません。以上、nostrが埋め込めるって話と、ちゃぴののろけでした。わーーい。

What is Bitcoin and why is it different?
In the realm of digital assets and cryptocurrencies, bitcoin stands apart today as both a pioneer network and the dominating technology creating jobs, opportunities, and driving interest in the digital economy.
From a novel computing experiment to a real-time settlements network worth over $1.5 trillion, bitcoin has been catapulted to be a key asset for Wall Street firms and an important savings vehicle and financial technology for Main Street early adopters.
With a pre-programmed hard limit of 21 million units, a distributed network of software nodes verifying transactions, and a unique proof-of-work algorithm that creates an entire industry of hashing miners, Bitcoin has soared above its crypto-offspring and provided unique investing and business opportunities for Americans.
Bitcoin’s innovation in allowing exclusive self-custody, as well as its ease of use and global market liquidity, position it to be a key part of every young person’s financial journey. Unlike other tokens and crypto projects, Bitcoin has no central point of failure, no board of directors, and no central decisionmaker. It is a decentralized and distributed network governed by hard code.
Understanding Bitcoin’s popularity, growing adoption, and market domination, this brochure outlines the various areas of federal law that currently touch the use of Bitcoin.
As the nation’s legislative body, Congress has the ultimate ability and authority to ensure Americans remain free to use the technology, and allow the economic opportunities it provides to be shared by any American who wishes.
The purpose of this brochure is to inform legislative reforms aimed at reducing barriers to adoption, streamlining taxation, and minimizing regulatory complexity so that ordinary Americans can enjoy the fruits of innovation that Bitcoin provides.
Who and what regulates Bitcoin?
The regulatory and legal framework governing Bitcoin and its crypto-offspring in the United States is ever-evolving, thanks in large part to executive actions, legislative proposals, and shifting priorities from regulatory agencies.
President Donald Trump’s pledge to make America the “Bitcoin and Crypto Capital of the World,” as well as establishing the federal government's “Strategic Bitcoin Reserve,” demonstrate that positive legislative momentum is underway, and that Bitcoin is here to stay.
At present, the significant areas of codified US federal law that address Bitcoin are taxation on digital assets, financial regulatory jurisdiction between various independent agencies, and anti-money laundering and sanctions compliance.
In the US Code, those are represented in the following titles and sections:
-
7 U.S.C. § 1a(9) (Commodity Exchange Act)
-
15 U.S.C. § 77 et seq. (Securities Act of 1933)
-
31 U.S.C. § 5311–5332 (Bank Secrecy Act)
-
18 U.S.C. § 1956 (Money Laundering Conspiracies)
-
18 U.S.C. § 1960 (Money Laundering Prevention Act, Unlicensed Money Transmission Businesses)
In executing these laws, the agencies of concern are numerous including the:
-
Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
-
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
-
Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)
-
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC)
-
Federal Reserve
-
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)
-
Department of Energy (DOE)
-
and many more.
The impact of these laws and rules have been interpreted differently by competing agencies and administrations, and the American people would benefit from pro-innovation reforms in order to secure this nation’s standing as a place for Bitcoin to thrive.
TAXATION
According to IRS guidelines and established law, bitcoin and all other cryptocurrencies and digital assets are classified as property, subjecting realized transactions to capital gains taxes and income taxes for bitcoin they may earn from mining, airdrops, or rewards. Every American that realizes a dollar gain from a purchase and sale of bitcoin is required to file this information on their annual tax returns.
Recent developments include:
-
IRS Form 1099-DA: Mandated for cryptocurrency brokers beginning January 2025, this form reports gross proceeds from crypto sales but excludes cost-basis data, complicating tax compliance for users.
-
De Minimis Taxation Legislation: Several bills introduced in both the House and Senate aim to exempt cryptocurrency transactions with capital gains from reporting those proceeds to the IRS if they are under a certain amount. This would reduce the amount of compliance required for retail users who may exchange bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for goods or services.
Opportunities for reforms
-
Simplify Reporting: Replace Form 1099-DA with a unified system that tracks reported cost basis.
-
Clarify Income Tax Treatment: Exempt airdrops, mining rewards, and sales of bitcoin from income and capital gains taxes if held for longer than two years.
-
Pass a De Minimis Exemption Threshold (e.g., under $10,000 per transaction) to reduce compliance burdens for retail users, such as the Virtual Currency Taxation Fairness Act.
## REGULATORY JURISDICTION
Under the current regulatory rules and court interpretations, bitcoin is classified as a commodity. This de facto places bitcoin and associated derivatives markets under the regulatory auspices of the CFTC, but it has not yet been codified into law.
Recent developments include:
- FIT21 Act: Passed by the House in 2024, this bill clarifies jurisdictional boundaries, assigning the CFTC oversight of digital commodities (e.g., bitcoin) and the SEC authority over securities-like tokens.
Opportunities for Reform:
- Adopt FIT21’s Framework: Codify the CFTC’s oversight role of bitcoin markets to eliminate ambiguity and foster innovation in non-security crypto projects.
FINANCIAL SERVICE INTEGRATION
In the first few months of President Trump’s administration, certain regulatory changes by agencies have helped to cement bitcoin as a mature asset that institutions and individuals should be free to use.
While many of these changes have not yet been codified into law, there are opportunities for simplifying and clarifying Americans’ access to bitcoin.
Recent developments include:
-
Policy changes at the OCC and the SEC now allow national banks to offer crypto products and custody bitcoin and its crypto-offspring, hold stablecoin reserves, and participate in blockchain networks without prior approval.
-
The FDIC has rescinded 2022 guidance requiring pre-approval for crypto activities, thus enabling FDIC-supervised institutions to engage in permissible services.
-
The BITCOIN Act would codify the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, consolidating federal bitcoin holdings (e.g., 207,000 BTC worth $17 billion) under Treasury management, likened to a “digital Fort Knox”.
-
In 2022, Fannie Mae issued a Selling Guide that prohibits Virtual Currency (including bitcoin) from being considered an asset for the purpose of a borrower seeking home financing.
Opportunities for Reform:
-
Codify regulatory changes that allow financial institutions to send, receive, buy, sell, and conduct all operations related to bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
-
Issue regulatory guidance to allow bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to be considered assets for the purpose of home financing.
-
Pass the BITCOIN Act to codify the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and begin the plan for accumulation of bitcoin into the Federal Treasury.
ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING (AML) AND SANCTIONS
Bitcoin and cryptocurrency businesses that transmit money on behalf of clients, and allow clients to buy and sell cryptocurrencies on their platforms are considered to be “money service businesses” that must register with both state authorities and the Department of Treasury’s Financial Crimes and Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
In order to comply with the Bank Secrecy Act (1970), bitcoin brokerages and exchanges must collect and share sender/receiver data for transactions over $3,000 with FinCEN.
Federal agencies will then use blockchain analytics to screen wallets for ties to sanctioned entities or illicit activities, as deemed appropriate by law enforcement agencies with probable cause.
As Bitcoin is a decentralized network protocol, innovators and developers offer noncustodial tools to users that do not require the transmission of funds, and allow users to more effectively and securely safeguard their bitcoin on their self-custody wallets.
Until this year, this has been wrongly considered within the scope of Bank of Secrecy Act regulations, which led to federal indictments of developers and entrepreneurs offering these tools to users.
Recent developments include:
-
Ending Regulation by Prosecution: In April 2025, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blance issued a memo iterating that the Department of Justice “will no longer target virtual currency exchanges, mixing and tumbling services, and offline wallets for the acts of their end users or unwitting violations of regulation.”
-
Repeal of Noncustodial broker Rule: In April 2025, President Trump signed a law overturning a Biden-era regulatory rule defining decentralized platforms as brokers, which required these platforms to collect tax information and perform anti-money laundering checks as required by the Bank Secrecy Act.
-
Safe Harbor for Noncustodial developers: Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) has introduced the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act, a bill that would grant safe harbor from registration and licensing for developers and coders of noncustodial and decentralized (non-controlling) software projects related to Bitcoin.
Opportunities for Reform:
-
Specifically exempt Decentralized Protocols and Bitcoin projects from BSA compliance: Decentralized Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency projects that do not hold cryptographic keys and do not hold or receive funds on behalf of clients should be exempt from all AML/KYC regulations as required by the Bank Secrecy Act.
-
Congress should consider Rep. Tom Emmer’s Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act.
-
Developers of noncustodial protocols that deal with Bitcoin and its crypto-offspring should be exempt from all Money Service Business regulations, reporting, and compliance.
-
For bitcoin entities that are Money Service Businesses, the reporting threshold should be raised to at least $10,000 to align with cash transaction standards.
-
Congress should consider Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT)’s Saving Privacy Act, which among other things, protects self-custody for American Bitcoin users and would repeal the Suspicious Activity Reporting requirement threshold for both financial institutions and Money Service Businesses, while still requiring recordkeeping.
Conclusion: Pro-Innovation Congressional Reform for Bitcoin Users
To align federal policy with the goals of reducing friction and fostering adoption for Americans who want to use Bitcoin, Congress should prioritize:
-
Tax Simplification: Streamline reporting, exempt small transactions from capital gains calculations, and clarify income classifications.
-
Regulatory Clarity: Codify the SEC/CFTC jurisdictional split and limit enforcement overreach.
-
Banking Access: Formalize federal guidelines for crypto-friendly banking and lending services.
-
AML Modernization: Tailor rules to minimize burdens on decentralized ecosystems and innovators.
By addressing these areas, the U.S. can transition from a patchwork of reactive policies to a coherent framework that positions Bitcoin as a pillar of economic innovation and inclusion.

2025-05-13 16:03:48What happens when you integrate a Nostr client with a bitcoin lightning wallet? They both get massively better! Social interactions benefit from seamless micropayments, while the wallet is able to tap into the massive address book represented by the Nostr social graph. This makes it possible to interact with people around the world in totally new ways. For example, Markus from Germany can zap a note posted by Isabella in Costa Rica, who can then buy a coffee with those sats, all from the same app.
At Primal, our goal is to deliver products that have mass appeal; products that can be easily used by anyone. Our latest iOS release represents our best take on how to build on open protocols and balance the tradeoffs between user sovereignty, user experience and ease of use. We believe that Nostr and Bitcoin will grow to billions of users, and we are building the technology that will help onboard and delight everyone.
Nostr Onboarding
Our goal is to achieve the highest level of user experience on a decentralized network, without sacrificing user sovereignty over their account, connections, and content. Therefore the onboarding process needs to be smooth and resemble what users are used to on legacy platforms, while providing access to their Nostr keys:
The user is able to sign up and start using Nostr quickly and without friction. Their key is available in the Account Settings, providing complete control over their Nostr account. In addition, the user can specify the set of Nostr relays they wish to publish to. The Primal iOS app signs all content with the user’s key and publishes it directly to the specified set of relays. This achieves full user control over their Nostr account, social connections, and the content they publish.
Performance & UX
In order to compete with the centralized legacy platforms, we must match and exceed their level of user experience. Interfaces must load quickly and completely, otherwise people will lose interest and Nostr will see a high degree of user churn. With this in mind, we built the Nostr caching service, and open sourced it so that other Nostr developers can leverage it as well. This enables us to provide the types of user experiences that are expected by most people today:
For details about our caching approach please refer to my Nostrasia presentation.
Primal Wallet
We are psyched to introduce Primal Wallet, an insanely easy-to-use transactional wallet, ideal for holding small amounts of bitcoin and making payments on the lightning network.
Strike is providing custody, fiat conversions, and lightning network connectivity to Primal users. By integrating with Strike, we are able to provide uninterrupted service to U.S. and international customers.
Smooth onboarding and wallet operation are essential for our use case. Given that we are dealing with very small amounts, we decided to take the custodial approach. This sacrifices direct user custody over the funds, but makes the overall UX seamless and reliable. New users are able to send and receive sats as soon as they download the app.
Here are a few additional points to keep in mind:
-
\In-App Purchases\: Once the wallet is activated, it is fully-operational and able to receive sats. If the user doesn’t own any sats, they are able to buy small amounts via an in-app purchase, in $5 increments. Note that these purchases are subject to “Apple tax” (15% in U.S. and Canada, 30% elsewhere, for customers with iOS devices), plus 1% Strike margin. Primal does not make any revenue on these purchases. Users can always buy sats through a different method and send them to their Primal Wallet. The in-app purchase is merely a convenient way for new users to get started with small amounts.
-
\Maximum Wallet Balance\: Primal Wallet is designed for holding and transacting with small amounts of bitcoin. Larger amounts should be kept in self custody, preferably on a hardware wallet. To encourage self custody for larger amounts, we are enforcing a maximum wallet balance of 1,000,000 sats (approximately USD $400 at the time of this writing).
We believe that Primal Wallet offers the best tradeoff balance for our use case, including social media zaps, and small purchases: coffee, beer, lunch, etc. We are planning to expand the feature set of the wallet in the upcoming releases, based on the feedback from our users.
Open Networks Win
Nostr is an open network, not controlled by any person, company, nor organization. Anyone can join without asking for permission, and any developer is free to build on it. In a short amount of time, hundreds of projects have sprouted building on Nostr, including: Damus, Amethyst, Snort, Highlighter, Alby, Nos, Mutiny, Coracle, ZBD, Fountain, Habla.news, Plebstr, Spring, Iris, Nostrgram, Current, Blogstack, Zap.stream, Listr, Nostr.band, Nostr.build, Flycat, Nosta.me, NoStrudel, Nostur, Nostore, Zaplife, Wavlake, and many more.
Your Nostr keys work with Primal, as well as every other app in the Nostr ecosystem. You can seamlessly use your Nostr identity in social media apps, blog/news sites, marketplaces, etc. Every Nostr product brings more users and more gravity to the entire network. This is why we believe that Nostr will eventually connect everybody.
If you are not satisfied with the status quo dictated by the legacy media complex, if you think that the global town square should not be owned by anyone, if you feel that people should be in control over their online identity, social connections, and the content they publish - you do have a choice. Join us on Nostr. 🤙💜

2025-05-13 15:59:04Hulladékgazdálkodás – 2025. május 13. | Írta: David Dalton
A francia nukleáris hulladéktároló projekt akár 37 milliárd euróba is kerülhet, közölte az Andra
Franciaország mélygeológiai tároló projektje várhatóan 26 milliárd euró (28,9 milliárd dollár) és 37,5 milliárd euró között fog kerülni – közölte a nemzeti nukleáris hulladékügynökség, az Andra május 12-én, ami magasabb a korábbi, mintegy 25 milliárd eurós becslésnél.
A Cigéo nevű projekt Franciaország központi létesítménye lesz a nukleáris erőművekből és egyéb reaktor létesítményekből származó nagy aktivitású radioaktív hulladék hosszú távú tárolására.
Az Andra szerint az ipari minisztérium rendelete várhatóan az év végéig véglegesíti a költségeket, amelyek referenciaként szolgálnak majd a következő felülvizsgálatig. Mind a költségek, mind a helyszín további felülvizsgálatok elé néznek, legkésőbb 2026 végéig.
Az építkezés 2027-ben kezdődhet, amennyiben a francia nukleáris biztonsági hatóság (ASN – Autorité de sûreté nucléaire) jóváhagyja a kérelmet, és az első hulladékcsomagokat 2050-ben fogadnák, a várható üzemidő pedig 100 év.
2023 júniusában az ASN elfogadta, és megkezdte az Andra által benyújtott Cigéo létesítmény építési kérelmének vizsgálatát.
A Cigéo a legmagasabb aktivitású, egyben leghosszabb élettartamú radioaktív hulladékok elhelyezésére szolgál egy mélygeológiai tárolóban, amely a Meuse és Haute-Marne megyék határán, Északkelet-Franciaországban található.
Jelenleg a világon sehol nem működik hosszú távú hulladéktároló létesítmény a polgári nukleáris energia programokból származó nagy aktivitású hulladék számára.
A Nemzetközi Atomenergia Ügynökség szerint Franciaország, Finnország és Svédország az a három ország, amely a legnagyobb előrelépést tette ilyen létesítmények üzembe helyezése felé.
A finnországi Onkalo tároló várhatóan a világ első működő mélygeológiai elhelyezési létesítménye lesz, teljes üzembe helyezése a 2020-as évek közepére várható.

Európa „aggályokat fogalmazott meg” a cseh–dél-koreai nukleáris megállapodással kapcsolatban
Az Európai Bizottság arra kérte a Cseh Köztársaságot, hogy halassza el a legalább 18 milliárd dollár (16,9 milliárd euró) értékű szerződés aláírását a dél-koreai Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) vállalattal új atomerőművek építésére, amíg kivizsgálják az esetleges külföldi támogatások felhasználását – közölte egy bizottsági szóvivő május 12-én a Reuters szerint.
A szóvivő elmondta, hogy Stephane Séjourné, az ipari stratégia biztosa egy levélben fejezte ki aggodalmát a dél-koreai pályázatot érintő külföldi támogatások szabályozásával kapcsolatban.
„Még nem tartunk ott, hogy mélyreható vizsgálatot indítanánk, és nem szeretném előre megjósolni, hogy eljutunk-e oda vagy sem” – mondta a szóvivő.
A cseh CTK hírügynökség idézte Petr Fiala cseh miniszterelnököt, aki szerint bár a levél a biztostól származik, az nem képviseli a Bizottság hivatalos álláspontját, és nincs kötelező érvénye.
Az Euractiv szerint egy bizottsági szóvivő újságíróknak május 12-én azt mondta, hogy Séjourné levele „semmiképpen sem kérte a folyamat leállítását”.
Az Euractiv szerint Séjourné levele azt írja, hogy a Bizottság vizsgálja, kapott-e a KHNP tiltott állami támogatást az EU-s szabályozás szerint, amikor elnyerte a két atomerőmű építésére kiírt tendert.
A reaktorprojektért felelős cseh vállalat, az Elektrarna Dukovany II (EDU II) közleményt adott ki, amelyben megvédte a kiválasztási folyamatot, és felszólította az EDF-et, hogy hozza nyilvánosságra a tenderben benyújtott ajánlatát.
Az EDU II, a cseh állami közműcég, a ČEZ leányvállalata kijelentette, hogy kész „teljes kártérítést követelni” és megvédeni a részvényesi értéket bármilyen peres eljárással szemben.
A közlemény szerint az illegális támogatásról szóló állítások „a sikertelen pályázó spekulációi”.
Dél-Korea és Csehország megerősítette elkötelezettségét az atomerőmű-szerződés aláírása mellett, annak ellenére, hogy egy bírósági döntés ideiglenesen elhalasztotta a szerződéskötést.
A sajtóhírek szerint a cseh kormány május 7-i ülésén kijelentette, hogy az EDU II a lehető leghamarabb folytatja a szerződéskötést a KHNP-vel két atomerőmű építésére.
A két új, nagy kapacitású APR1400 típusú reaktort a KHNP szállítja, és a csehországi Dukovany atomerőmű telephelyén építik fel.
Az eredetileg május 7-re tervezett szerződésaláírást elhalasztották, miután bírósági végzés született az EDF, a tenderen sikertelen pályázó jogi kifogása nyomán.

Izrael tervezi első kereskedelmi atomerőművét
Javaslatot fontolgatnak Izrael első kereskedelmi atomerőművének megépítésére Shivta közelében, az ország déli részén, bár kétségek merültek fel a helyi ellenállás és Izrael atomsorompó-szerződésen (NPT) kívüli státusza miatt.
Közel-keleti jelentések szerint a terveket a jövő héten vizsgálja meg a regionális tervezési és építési bizottság, amely a Negev-sivatagi térségben felépítendő létesítményért felelős.
A jelentések szerint a bizottság már „erős ellenállását” fejezte ki a tervvel szemben.
A nemzetközi aggályok középpontjában Izrael NPT-szerződésen kívüli státusza és az a tény áll, hogy nem fogadta el a Nemzetközi Atomenergia Ügynökség (IAEA) ellenőrzését néhány főbb nukleáris tevékenységére. Az NPT az IAEA felügyelete alatt biztosítja, hogy a nukleáris anyagokat és létesítményeket ne tereljék katonai célokra.
Izrael ugyan működtet kutatóreaktorokat, de nincs kereskedelmi atomerőműve. Az évek során többször is fontolgatta kereskedelmi atomerőművek építésének lehetőségét.
Az izraeli Ynet News szerint a javaslat számos megválaszolatlan kérdést vet fel, például hogy melyik ország építené meg az erőművet, tekintettel Izrael NPT-n kívüli státuszára. További aggályok a nukleáris üzemanyag forrására, a sivatagi klímában szükséges hűtőrendszerre, valamint a víz szállításának logisztikájára vonatkoznak.
A Ynet News szerint más lehetséges helyszíneket különböző okokból elvetettek, például a katonai repülőtér közelsége, geológiai vizsgálatok eredményei vagy a népsűrűség miatt.
Kutatás és fejlesztés – 2025. május 13. | Írta: David Dalton
Tajvani kutatási projekt nyithat utat fejlett atomerőművek előtt
A Tajvani Nemzeti Atomkutató Intézet (Nari) elindított egy 3,3 millió dolláros (2,9 millió eurós) kis moduláris reaktor (SMR) kutatási projektet, amely utat nyithat fejlett atomerőművek bevezetéséhez azon a szigeten, ahol hamarosan leállítják az összes régebbi, nagy kapacitású reaktort.
Az új nukleáris technológiák kutatása akkor kezdődött, amikor a kormány ezen a hétvégén véglegesen leállítja a Maanshan-2 atomerőművet Pingtung megyében, Dél-Tajvanon, teljesítve ígéretét, hogy Tajvant nukleárismentessé teszi.
Az SMR-eket a Nemzetközi Atomenergia Ügynökség 300 MW vagy annál kisebb kapacitásúnak definiálja, ami körülbelül egyharmada egy hagyományos atomerőmű teljesítményének. Moduláris kialakításuk lehetővé teszi a gyári előállítást és könnyebb telepítést a nagy atomerőművekhez képest. Az SMR-ek gyártói a moduláris alkatrészek tömeggyártásával kívánnak méretgazdaságosságot elérni.
2024 júliusában az állami tulajdonú atomerőmű tulajdonos és üzemeltető Taipower közölte, hogy leállította a Maanshan-1 atomerőművet, így az országban már csak egy reaktor, a Maanshan-2 maradt kereskedelmi üzemelésben.
A Maanshan-1, egy 936 MW-os nyomottvizes reaktor (PWR) leállítása közepette tovább folytatódik a törvényhozók vitája arról, hogy meghosszabbítsák-e a sziget nukleáris létesítményeinek élettartamát.
2023-ban a nukleáris energia Tajvan villamosenergia-termelésének mintegy 6,9%-át tette ki, amelyet főként szén és cseppfolyósított földgáz ural.
A Taipower szerint a Maanshan-1 leállításával a nukleáris forrásból származó áram aránya 2,8%-ra csökken.
Egy időben Tajvan hat reaktora az iparilag erősen fejlett sziget villamosenergia-termelésének több mint felét biztosította.
A Maanshan-1 1984 júliusában kezdte meg a kereskedelmi üzemet, és most járt le a 40 éves működési engedélye. A 938 MW-os Maanshan-2 várhatóan 2025. május 18-án, 40 év üzem után áll le.
„Nagyon nyitottak” az új nukleáris technológiára
Tavaly év végén Tajvan miniszterelnöke, Cho Jung-tai azt mondta, az ország „nagyon nyitott” az új nukleáris technológia alkalmazására, hogy kielégítse a chipgyártók növekvő áramigényét, akik az AI-robbanáshoz használnak villamos energiát.
„Amíg Tajvanon konszenzus van a nukleáris biztonságról, és jó irány és garancia van a hulladékkezelésre, ezzel az erős konszenzussal lefolytathatjuk a nyilvános vitát” – mondta Cho a Bloomberg Newsnak adott interjúban.
Megjegyzései az egyik legerősebb jelei annak, hogy a kormány újragondolja ellenállását a kereskedelmi atomerőművekkel szemben.
Cho vélhetően fejlett reaktorokra, köztük az SMR-ekre utalt, amelyeket számos országban fejlesztenek.

2025-05-13 04:18:45Nukleáris politika – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton
Lengyelország és Franciaország nukleáris szerződést ír alá, Macron új építési szerződéseket céloz
Lengyelország és Franciaország olyan szerződést kötött, amely együttműködést irányoz elő a polgári nukleáris energia szektorban, miközben Párizs reménykedik abban, hogy Varsótól jövedelmező új atomerőmű-építési szerződéseket nyer el.
A szerződés közös tevékenységeket tartalmaz, amelyek célja a nukleáris energia előnyeinek kihasználása az európai ipar dekarbonizációja érdekében.
A két ország együtt kíván működni a nukleáris fűtőanyag-ellátás biztonságának megerősítésében is.
Európa szeretné kizárni Oroszországot a nukleáris fűtőanyag-piacáról, de az Euratom Ellátási Ügynökség (ESA) legfrissebb éves jelentése szerint 2023-ban nőtt az Oroszországból származó természetes urán szállítása, mivel az uniós szolgáltatók készleteket halmoztak fel az orosz tervezésű VVER atomerőművekhez.
Az ESA, amely az európai nukleáris anyagok rendszeres és méltányos ellátásáért felelős, közölte, hogy az uniós szolgáltatók tovább diverzifikálják nukleáris fűtőanyag-beszerzéseiket, különösen a VVER reaktorokhoz, hogy csökkentsék a „egy forrásból származó vagy magas kockázatú” ellátásoktól való függést.
„Majdnem minden olyan ország, amely orosz tervezésű reaktorokat üzemeltet, halad az alternatív fűtőanyagok engedélyeztetésében, és ígéretes fejlemények várhatók a közeljövőben” – közölte az ESA.
Az EU-ban jelenleg 19 VVER reaktor működik, köztük négy 1000 MW-os Bulgáriában és Csehországban, valamint tizenöt 440 MW-os Csehországban, Finnországban, Magyarországon és Szlovákiában.
A jelentések szerint a francia–lengyel nukleáris szerződés különösen fontos a francia állami EDF energetikai vállalat számára, amely még mindig reménykedik abban, hogy részt vehet Lengyelország ambiciózus atomerőmű-építési programjában, annak ellenére, hogy az első új építésű projekt tenderét az amerikai Westinghouse nyerte el Pomeránia északi tartományában.
Franciaország ambiciózus reaktorépítési tervei
Franciaország maga is nagyszabású nukleáris fejlesztési terveket dédelget: a kormány nemrégiben felkérte az EDF-et, hogy gyorsítsa fel a hat új generációs EPR2 atomerőmű megépítésének előkészítését.
Az EDF kezdetben három EPR2 párost tervez: az elsőt Penlyben, majd egyet-egyet a Gravelines-i atomerőmű telephelyén (Calais közelében), illetve vagy Bugey-ben (Lyon keleti részén), vagy Tricastinban (Lyon és Avignon közelében).
A nukleáris szerződés aláírását megelőzte egy másik szerződés is, amely a két szövetséges közötti kapcsolatok elmélyítését, valamint kölcsönös biztonsági garanciákat is tartalmaz háború esetére.
Donald Tusk lengyel miniszterelnök, aki Emmanuel Macron francia elnökkel együtt írta alá a biztonsági dokumentumot, „áttörésnek” nevezte a szerződést, kiemelve, hogy csak Németországnak van hasonló biztonsági paktuma Franciaországgal, és ez Lengyelországot „egyenrangú partnerként” helyezi nyugati szövetségesei közé.
Macron eközben úgy fogalmazott, hogy a szerződés „új korszakot nyit” nemcsak Lengyelország és Franciaország, hanem egész Európa számára. „Bresttől Krakkóig Európa együtt áll ki” – mondta a francia elnök.
Nukleáris politika – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton
Trump csapata a nukleáris erőművek építésének felgyorsítását tervezi
A Trump-adminisztráció tisztviselői végrehajtási rendeleteket készítenek elő, amelyek célja az atomerőművek jóváhagyásának és építésének felgyorsítása az Egyesült Államokban – számolt be róla a sajtó.
Az erőfeszítés, amelyet egy kormányzati tisztviselő és más, az egyeztetéseket ismerő személyek írtak le, még folyamatban van. Az elnök még nem hagyta jóvá a tervezetet – mondta az egyik forrás, aki névtelenséget kért, mivel hivatalos bejelentés még nem történt. Az amerikai Axios hírportál és a New York Times is beszámolt az egyeztetésekről.
Trump és kormányának tisztviselői többször hangsúlyozták a bőséges, olcsó villamos energia fontosságát az energiaigényes mesterséges intelligencia ipar számára, amely segítheti az Egyesült Államokat abban, hogy megnyerje a feltörekvő technológia globális versenyét.
„Meg kell nyernünk az MI-versenyt, és ebben vezetnünk kell – ehhez pedig sokkal több energiára lesz szükség” – mondta Chris Wright energiaügyi miniszter múlt hónapban egy kabinetülésen Trump társaságában.
Az elnök már hivatalosan is energia-vészhelyzetet hirdetett, nemzeti és gazdasági biztonsági szempontokra hivatkozva annak érdekében, hogy gyorsítsa az erőművek, csővezetékek és elektromos távvezetékek építését az országban.
A szóban forgó tervezetek célokat tűznének ki az atomerőművek gyors országos építésére, illetve az amerikai nukleáris ipar vezető szerepének visszaállítására.
Legalább az egyik intézkedés a Nukleáris Szabályozási Bizottságnál (NRC) vezetne be változtatásokat, amelyek gyorsíthatják az erőműtervek, köztük az új kis moduláris reaktorok (SMR-ek) engedélyezését.
Wright nemrégiben úgy nyilatkozott, hogy az új reaktorblokkok építésének legnagyobb akadálya az Egyesült Államokban a szabályozás volt.
Az elképzelés részeként akár katonai létesítményekre is telepíthetnek majd atomerőműveket, valószínűleg mikroreaktorok vagy SMR-ek formájában.
Jelenleg az Egyesült Államokban nincs kereskedelmi atomerőmű építés alatt. Az utolsó két üzembe helyezett blokk a georgiai Vogtle-3 és Vogtle-4 volt, 2023-ban és 2024-ben.
Előrehaladott tervek vannak a michigani Palisades atomerőmű újraindítására. Ha megvalósul, ez lenne az első olyan, korábban leállított amerikai atomerőmű, amely ismét működésbe lép.

Vietnam és Oroszország tárgyalásokat kezd atomerőmű-építésről
Vietnam és Oroszország megállapodott abban, hogy tárgyalásokat folytatnak és szerződéseket írnak alá kereskedelmi atomerőművek építéséről Vietnamban – közölték a két ország egy közös nyilatkozatban.
„Az erőművek fejlesztése korszerű technológiával szigorúan megfelel majd a nukleáris és sugárbiztonsági előírásoknak, és a társadalmi-gazdasági fejlődést szolgálja” – áll a közleményben, amely a vietnami vezető, To Lam moszkvai látogatása után jelent meg.
Az orosz állami atomenergetikai vállalat, a Roszatom szerint a látogatás „az együttműködés új szakaszát” jelenti – egy nagy atomerőmű építését Délkelet-Ázsiában.
A Roszatom felajánlotta Vietnámnak a VVER-1200 nyomottvizes reaktor technológiáját, amelyből kettő már működik az oroszországi Novovoronyezs 2 atomerőműben, és kettő Fehéroroszországban.
A Roszatom közölte, hogy további tárgyalásokra van szükség a vietnami atomerőmű műszaki és pénzügyi feltételeinek tisztázásához, de hozzátette: „ezek a tárgyalások ma [május 10-én] megkezdődtek”.
A Roszatom arról is beszámolt, hogy Alekszej Lihacsov vezérigazgató és Nguyen Manh Hung vietnami tudományos és technológiai miniszter aláírt egy nukleáris energia ütemtervet.
Az ütemterv tartalmazza egy nukleáris tudományos és technológiai központ lehetséges megépítését, fűtőanyag-szállítást a dél-vietnami Dalat kutatóreaktorhoz, Vietnam részvételét Oroszország IV. generációs MBIR többcélú gyorsneutronos kutatóreaktor projektjében, valamint vietnami szakemberek képzését.
Vietnamnak jelenleg egy kutatóreaktora van Dalatban, és egy másik is tervben van. A Roszatom nem közölte, melyikre gondolt.
A múlt hónapban Vietnam elfogadta a nemzeti energiastratégia módosított változatát, amely 2030-ig 136 milliárd dollárt irányoz elő az energiaellátás hosszú távú biztonságának megerősítésére, és először szerepel benne az atomenergia.
Vietnam azt szeretné, ha első atomerőművei 2030 és 2035 között lépnének üzembe. A beépített nukleáris kapacitás várhatóan 4–6,4 GW lesz, ami körülbelül 4–6 nagy atomerőműnek felel meg.
A kormány szerint további 8 GW nukleáris kapacitás kerül majd a mixbe az évszázad közepéig.
Vietnam már 2009-ben is tervezett két atomerőművet, de a Nemzetgyűlés 2016-ban költségvetési okokból elutasította a javaslatot.

Az NRC engedélyt adott az „energia-sziget” munkálatokra a TerraPower wyomingi atomerőművénél
Az Egyesült Államok Nukleáris Szabályozási Bizottsága (NRC) mentességet adott a TerraPower Natrium demonstrációs atomerőművének wyomingi Kemmererben, lehetővé téve a vállalat számára bizonyos „energia-sziget” tevékenységek folytatását, miközben a hatóságok tovább vizsgálják az építési engedély iránti kérelmet.
Az energia-sziget a tervezett Natrium atomerőműben a felesleges hő tárolására szolgál majd, hogy csúcsterhelés idején növelje az áramtermelést.
Az NRC szerint az energia-szigethez kapcsolódó bizonyos tevékenységek engedélyezése nem jelent indokolatlan kockázatot a közegészségre és biztonságra, és „különleges körülmények” állnak fenn.
A mentesség a létesítmények, rendszerek és komponensek korlátozott részére vonatkozik, lehetővé téve például cölöpverést, alapozást, vagy bizonyos szerkezetek, rendszerek és komponensek összeszerelését, gyártását, tesztelését korlátozott munkavégzési engedély nélkül.
Az NRC szerint a mentesség nem befolyásolja a reaktor építési engedélyéről szóló végső döntést. „Az NRC folytatja az építési engedély iránti kérelem vizsgálatát az egész projektre vonatkozóan” – áll a közleményben.
A Bill Gates által alapított TerraPower üdvözölte a döntést, hozzátéve, hogy a nukleáris reaktor és az energiatermelő létesítmények szétválasztása rövidebb építési időt és alacsonyabb anyagköltségeket tesz lehetővé.
Februárban az amerikai energiaügyi minisztérium befejezte a projekt előzetes tevékenységeire vonatkozó végső környezeti értékelést.
A TerraPower, amelyet Gates 2008-ban alapított, 2024 júniusában kezdte meg első kereskedelmi Natrium atomerőművének építését Kemmererben, ahol egy széntüzelésű erőmű zár be.
A Natrium demonstrációs projekt három különálló részből áll: egy nátrium teszt- és feltöltő létesítményből, az energiatermelő vagy energia-szigetből, valamint a nukleáris szigetből magával a reaktorral.
A kezdeti építkezés a teszt- és feltöltő létesítményre összpontosít, amely egy különálló, nem nukleáris épület, és a reaktor nátrium hűtőrendszerének tesztelésére szolgál. Itt történik a folyékony nátrium fogadása, mintavételezése, feldolgozása és tárolása, mielőtt a Natrium reaktorhoz kerülne.

A lengyel atomerőmű-projekt biztosítási szerződéseket kötött
A lengyel Polskie Elektrownie Jądrowe (PEJ) atomerőmű-projekt vállalat négy biztosítási bróker céggel kötött keretmegállapodást. Az Aon Polska, GrECo Polska, Marsh és Smartt Re cégek támogatják a PEJ-t Lengyelország első kereskedelmi atomerőművének biztosítási szerződéseinek megkötésében, valamint a napi működéshez szükséges biztosítások beszerzésében. A PEJ minden brókerrel keretmegállapodást írt alá, amelyek alapján egyes biztosítási feladatokra kiválasztja a megfelelő brókert.
Az Aecon cég nyerte az ontariói SMR építési szerződését
A kanadai Aecon Kiewit Nuclear Partners nyerte el az Ontario Power Generation (OPG) által Darlingtonban építendő első kis moduláris reaktor (SMR) kivitelezési szerződését. A szerződés értéke 1,3 milliárd kanadai dollár (934 millió USD, 841 millió euró), amely projektmenedzsmentet, kivitelezési tervezést és végrehajtást foglal magában, a befejezést és a kereskedelmi üzemet 2030-ra tervezik. Ontario tartomány és az OPG múlt héten hagyta jóvá a négy SMR első darabjának 20,9 milliárd CAD értékű tervét Darlingtonban.
26 000 dolgozó a Hinkley Point C projekten a csúcskivitelezés idején
Az Egyesült Királyságban mintegy 26 000 dolgozó vesz részt a Hinkley Point C atomerőmű építésében, amely jelenleg csúcskivitelezési szakaszban van – derül ki az EDF Energy jelentéséből. Közvetlenül a projekten 18 000-en dolgoznak, ebből 12 000-en a helyszínen, további 3 000 fővel bővülhet a létszám a következő 12 hónapban. További 8 000-en a beszállítói láncban dolgoznak. A jelentés szerint a Hinkley Point C építése fontos katalizátor a gazdasági növekedésben, jelenleg 13,3 milliárd fonttal (15,7 milliárd euró, 17,5 milliárd dollár) járul hozzá a gazdasághoz. Ebből 5 milliárd fontot már a délnyugati régió beszállítóinál költöttek el – jóval meghaladva az 1,5 milliárd fontos célt. A Hinkley Point C két francia EPR reaktort kap.
Az Ansaldo Nucleare nukleáris mesterszakot indít Olaszországban

Last week we covered the bombshell developments in the Samourai Wallet case. For those who didn't read that, last Monday the world was made aware of the fact that the SDNY was explicitly told by FinCEN that the federal regulator did not believe that Samourai Wallet was a money services business six months before arresting the co-founders of Samourai Wallet for conspiracy to launder money and illegally operating a money services business. This was an obvious overstep by the SDNY that many believed would be quickly alleviated, especially considering the fact that the Trump administration via the Department of Justice has made it clear that they do not intend to rule via prosecution.
It seems that this is not the case as the SDNY responded to a letter sent from the defense to dismiss the case by stating that they fully plan to move forward. Stating that they only sought the recommendations of FinCEN employees and did not believe that those employees' comments were indicative of FinCEN's overall views on this particular case. It's a pretty egregious abuse of power by the SDNY. I'm not sure if the particular lawyers and judges within the Southern District of New York are very passionate about preventing the use of self-custody bitcoin and products that enable bitcoiners to transact privately, or if they're simply participating in a broader meta war with the Trump administration - who has made it clear to federal judges across the country that last Fall's election will have consequences, mainly that the Executive Branch will try to effectuate the policies that President Trump campaigned on by any legal means necessary - and Samouari Wallet is simply in the middle of that meta war.
However, one thing is pretty clear to me, this is an egregious overstep of power. The interpretation of that law, as has been laid out and confirmed by FinCEN over the last decade, is pretty clear; you cannot be a money services business if you do not control the funds that people are sending to each other, which is definitely the case with Samourai Wallet. People downloaded Samourai Wallet, spun up their own private-public key pairs and initiated transactions themselves. Samourai never custodied funds or initiated transactions on behalf of their users. This is very cut and dry. Straight to the point. It should be something that anyone with more than two brain cells is able to discern pretty quickly.
It is imperative that anybody in the industry who cares about being able to hold bitcoin in self-custody, to mine bitcoin, and to send bitcoin in a peer-to-peer fashion makes some noise around this case. None of the current administration's attempts to foster innovation around bitcoin in the United States will matter if the wrong precedent is set in this case. If the SDNY is successful in prosecuting Samourai Wallet, it will mean that anybody holding Bitcoin in self-custody, running a bitcoin fold node or mining bitcoin will have to KYC all of their users and counterparts lest they be labeled a money services business that is breaking laws stemming from the Bank Secrecy Act. This will effectively make building a self-custody bitcoin wallet, running a node, or mining bitcoin in tillegal in the United States. The ability to comply with the rules that would be unleashed if this Samourai case goes the wrong way, are such that it will effectively destroy the industry overnight.
It is yet to be seen whether or not the Department of Justice will step in to publicly flog the SDNY and force them to stop pursuing this case. This is the only likely way that the case will go away at this point, so it is very important that bitcoiners who care about being able to self-custody bitcoin, mine bitcoin, or send bitcoin in a peer-to-peer fashion in the United States make it clear to the current administration and any local politicians that this is an issue that you care deeply about. If we are too complacent, there is a chance that the SDNY could completely annihilate the bitcoin industry in America despite of all of the positive momentum we're seeing from all angles at the moment.
Make some noise!
Bitcoin Adoption by Power Companies: The Next Frontier
In my recent conversation with Andrew Myers from Satoshi Energy, he shared their ambitious mission to "enable every electric power company to use bitcoin by block 1,050,000" – roughly three years from now. This strategic imperative isn't just about creating new Bitcoin users; it's about sovereignty. Andrew emphasized that getting Bitcoin into the hands of energy companies who value self-sovereignty creates a more balanced future economic landscape. The excitement was palpable as he described how several energy companies are already moving beyond simply selling power to Bitcoin miners and are beginning to invest in mining operations themselves.
"You have global commodity companies being like, 'Oh, this is another commodity – we want to invest in this, we want to own this,'" - Andrew Myers
Perhaps most fascinating was Andrew's revelation about major energy companies in Texas developing Bitcoin collateral products for power contracts – a practical application that could revolutionize how energy transactions are settled. As energy companies continue embracing Bitcoin for both operations and collateral, we're witnessing the early stages of a profound shift in how critical infrastructure interfaces with sound money. The implications for both sectors could be transformative.

None of the current administration's attempts to foster innovation around bitcoin in the United States will matter if the wrong precedent is set in this case. If the SDNY is successful in prosecuting Samourai Wallet, it will mean that anybody holding Bitcoin in self-custody, running a bitcoin fold node or mining bitcoin will have to KYC all of their users and counterparts lest they be labeled a money services business that is breaking laws stemming from the Bank Secrecy Act. This will effectively make building a self-custody bitcoin wallet, running a node, or mining bitcoin in tillegal in the United States. The ability to comply with the rules that would be unleashed if this Samourai case goes the wrong way, are such that it will effectively destroy the industry overnight.
It is yet to be seen whether or not the Department of Justice will step in to publicly flog the SDNY and force them to stop pursuing this case. This is the only likely way that the case will go away at this point, so it is very important that bitcoiners who care about being able to self-custody bitcoin, mine bitcoin, or send bitcoin in a peer-to-peer fashion in the United States make it clear to the current administration and any local politicians that this is an issue that you care deeply about. If we are too complacent, there is a chance that the SDNY could completely annihilate the bitcoin industry in America despite of all of the positive momentum we're seeing from all angles at the moment.
Make some noise!
Bitcoin Adoption by Power Companies: The Next Frontier
In my recent conversation with Andrew Myers from Satoshi Energy, he shared their ambitious mission to "enable every electric power company to use bitcoin by block 1,050,000" – roughly three years from now. This strategic imperative isn't just about creating new Bitcoin users; it's about sovereignty. Andrew emphasized that getting Bitcoin into the hands of energy companies who value self-sovereignty creates a more balanced future economic landscape. The excitement was palpable as he described how several energy companies are already moving beyond simply selling power to Bitcoin miners and are beginning to invest in mining operations themselves.
"You have global commodity companies being like, 'Oh, this is another commodity – we want to invest in this, we want to own this,'" - Andrew Myers
Perhaps most fascinating was Andrew's revelation about major energy companies in Texas developing Bitcoin collateral products for power contracts – a practical application that could revolutionize how energy transactions are settled. As energy companies continue embracing Bitcoin for both operations and collateral, we're witnessing the early stages of a profound shift in how critical infrastructure interfaces with sound money. The implications for both sectors could be transformative.

@ 502ab02a:a2860397
2025-05-16 01:57:09หลังจากที่เราคุยกันไปแล้วเกี่ยวกับ milk 2.0 ว่ามี Perfect Day ที่เป็นหัวหาดด้านเวย์ที่ไม่มีวัว แล้วเราก็มี Formo หัวหาดด้านชีสที่ไม่มีวัว ซึ่ง 2 เจ้านี้ต่างมีสิ่งที่แต่ละคนขาดอยู่ นั่นคือ เจ้านึงขาดเคย์ซีนเด็ดๆ อีกเจ้าไม่ได้มีเวย์ที่เจ๋งพอ และแน่นอนครับ ทุกปัญหาย่อมมีธุรกิจเกิดขึ้นมาเพื่อแก้ปัญหา
วันนี้เราจะมาพบกับอีกผู้เล่นนึง ที่แก้ปัญหาทั้งหมดด้วยการ สร้างสิ่งที่ขาดขึ้นมาใหม่ ตามคาแรคเตอร์ของ "มังกรจีน" ใช่ครับ เราเคยคิดว่าโลกเทคโนโลยีมีแต่ฝรั่งเป็นเจ้าสำนัก แต่ตอนนี้ทุกมุมโลกต่างแย่งชิงอนาคตกันหมด ไม่มีใคร slow life อีกต่อไปแล้ว
เพราะในโลกที่นมไม่ใช่นม ชีสไม่ใช่ชีส และวัวไม่จำเป็นต้องกินหญ้า เรากำลังเข้าสู่ยุคที่ “นม 2.0” กำลังถูกออกแบบใหม่… ด้วยจุลินทรีย์ บริษัทหนึ่งจากจีนชื่อว่า Changing Biotech กำลังจะทำให้มันกลายเป็นความจริง ด้วยเป้าหมายที่ไม่ธรรมดา เปลี่ยนโครงสร้างนมทั้งระบบ โดยไม่ต้องใช้วัวแม้แต่ตัวเดียวเช่นกันครับ
หลายคนอาจคุ้นชื่อ Perfect Day บริษัทอเมริกันที่เป็นรายแรก ๆ ในโลกที่สามารถผลิตเวย์โปรตีนจากเชื้อราแบบไม่ใช้สัตว์ ด้วยเทคโนโลยี precision fermentation ซึ่งตอนนี้มีแบรนด์ไอศกรีม เนย และโยเกิร์ตของตัวเองกระจายขายในห้างทั่วอเมริกา แต่ Changing Biotech กลับเลือกเดินอีกเส้นทาง เส้นทางที่อาจลึกกว่า แยบยลกว่า และอาจ “กลืน” ตลาดในเอเชียโดยที่ผู้บริโภคไม่รู้ตัว
แน่นอนว่าสิทธิบัตรการค้นคว้าต่างๆมีมูลค่าสูง เบื้องหลังเทคโนโลยีของ Changing Biotech ไม่ใช่แค่การเลียนแบบ แต่คือการ สร้างใหม่ตั้งแต่ระดับจุลินทรีย์ พวกเขาไม่ได้แค่ยืมเชื้อราสำเร็จรูปอย่าง Trichoderma มาใส่ยีนโปรตีน แต่ “เพาะสายพันธุ์จุลินทรีย์ขึ้นมาเอง” เพื่อควบคุมการผลิตโปรตีนอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ ทั้งเวย์และเคซีน ซึ่งเป็นสององค์ประกอบหลักของนมแท้ นี่คือสิ่งที่แม้แต่ Perfect Day เองก็ยังไม่ได้โฟกัสเต็มตัว เพราะยังผลิตแต่เวย์เพียงอย่างเดียว Perfect Day ใช้ Trichoderma reesei เชื้อราชนิดที่วงการอาหารใช้กันมานานในการหมักเวย์โปรตีน เชื้อราชนิดนี้ปลอดภัย และได้รับการอนุมัติให้ใช้ในอาหารในหลายประเทศ แต่ Changing Biotechกลับล้ำไปอีกขั้น พวกเขาไม่ได้ยืมของใครมาใช้ แต่ 'สร้างจุลินทรีย์แพลตฟอร์มของตัวเอง' (customized microbial chassis) และมี ความสามารถด้าน strain engineering แบบ in-house ซึ่งทำให้พวกเขาควบคุมประสิทธิภาพการผลิต และลดต้นทุนได้แบบลึกสุดใจไม่ต้องซื้อให้เปลืองครับ
การผลิตเคซีนได้ในระดับอุตสาหกรรมหมายถึงอะไร? มันหมายถึง ชีสที่ยืดได้จริง หลอมได้จริง และ “เนื้อสัมผัสแบบชีสแท้” ที่แบรนด์ plant-based ยังเลียนแบบไม่ได้ และนั่นคือกุญแจสำคัญที่ทำให้ Changing Biotech ถูกจับตามองในวงการ alt-dairy ว่าอาจเป็น “Formo เวอร์ชันจีน” ที่จะครองตลาดชีสทั้งเอเชีย Changing Biotech ตั้งเป้าผลิต ทั้งเวย์และเคซีน ซึ่งทำให้สามารถพัฒนาผลิตภัณฑ์ที่มี “เนื้อสัมผัสและการหลอมตัวแบบชีสแท้จริง” ได้ครบวงจรกว่า โดยเฉพาะพวก mozzarella และ cheddar ที่ต้องพึ่งเคซีนในการขึ้นรูป จุดนี้คือกุญแจสำคัญในการตีตลาด “ชีสพรีเมียม” ที่วัตถุดิบจากพืชทำไม่ได้
แต่ที่น่าจับตายิ่งกว่านั้นคือ ทุนและเครือข่ายในประเทศ ที่ Perfect Day ไม่มี แม้ฝั่งอเมริกาจะมีเงินลงทุนหลักเกิน 800 ล้านดอลลาร์ แต่ฐานการผลิตอยู่ในสหรัฐฯ ซึ่งทำให้มีต้นทุนสูงกว่า ส่วนในจีน Changing Biotech ได้รับแรงหนุนจากรัฐบาลจีนผ่านนโยบายสนับสนุน “เทคโนโลยีอาหารแห่งอนาคต” และมีแนวโน้มว่าจะได้สิทธิพิเศษด้าน supply chain และการผลิตระดับอุตสาหกรรมภายในประเทศจีน ซึ่งเป็น ตลาดที่ Perfect Day เจาะยาก รวมถึงได้รับแรงหนุนจากกองทุนอาหารแห่งอนาคตอย่าง Bits x Bites ที่ทำงานร่วมกับรัฐบาลจีนโดยตรงในแผน 5 ปีด้านเทคโนโลยีอาหาร เป้าหมายชัดเจน ลดการพึ่งพาโปรตีนจากสัตว์ และสร้างระบบนมแห่งชาติแบบไร้สัตว์
โมเดลของพวกเขาต่างกับ Perfect Day ที่เน้นการสร้างแบรนด์ (เช่น Brave Robot, Modern Kitchen) และขายตรงกับผู้บริโภค แต่ Changing Biotech ไม่ใช่การตั้งแบรนด์ขายแข่งกันในห้าง แต่เป็น “ผู้อยู่เบื้องหลัง” ของแบรนด์ใหญ่อื่น ๆ โดยซัพพลายโปรตีนให้แบบ OEM ให้กับผู้ผลิตอาหารในจีน ซึ่งทำให้สามารถฝังตัวเข้า supply chain ของอุตสาหกรรมนมจีนได้เงียบ ๆ แต่ทรงพลัง โมเดลนี้คล้ายกับ Givaudan หรือ DSM ที่เน้นการเป็นผู้อยู่เบื้องหลังผลิตภัณฑ์แบรนด์อื่น
จะเรียกว่า Perfect Day คือ Apple ของนมไร้สัตว์ก็ได้ แต่ Changing Biotech กำลังเป็น Huawei ของอุตสาหกรรมนม ที่สร้างเทคโนโลยีขึ้นเองทั้งระบบ ควบคุมเบ็ดเสร็จตั้งแต่เชื้อจุลินทรีย์ยันขั้นตอนผลิต แล้วส่งต่อให้แบรนด์อื่นใช้แบบครบวงจร
ในวันที่ผู้บริโภคในจีนตักไอศกรีม “จากครีมจุลินทรีย์” หรือกินชีส “ไม่มีสัตว์เจือปน” อาจไม่มีใครรู้เลยว่าเบื้องหลังของรสสัมผัสนั้น คือจุลินทรีย์จากโรงงานที่พัฒนาโดย Changing Biotech ทั้งสิ้น
คำถามคือ แล้วมันดีต่อสุขภาพแค่ไหน? มันดีกว่าการรีดนมจากวัวจริง ๆ หรือแค่ดีต่อ narrative ของคนเมืองที่อยาก feel good แค่นั้น?
แล้วถ้าทุกประเทศเดินตามเทรนด์นี้ ใครกันแน่จะเป็นเจ้าของ “สูตรโปรตีนแห่งอนาคต” ที่ครองอำนาจอาหารของทั้งโลก?
คำตอบอาจไม่ได้อยู่ในกล่องนม แต่ในห้องแล็บจุลินทรีย์ของบริษัทที่เราไม่เคยได้ยินชื่อ
ยิ่งเราคุยกันนานเท่าไร ยิ่งรู้สึกแล้วใช่ไหมครับว่า อาหารอนาคต ไม่ใช่อาหารที่จะเกิดขึ้นในอนาคต แต่เป็น อาหารที่เราจะถูกครอบงำในอนาคต ซึ่งเริ่มไปแล้ว . . . วันนี้
นึกภาพวันที่ทุกคนล้วนรังเกียจนมจากวัว แล้วยินดีโอบกอดรับนมจากจุลินทรีย์ ด้วยความยินดีปรีดา
