I did my chiropractic studies at Life University in Georgia. When I picked schools, I had no idea about chiropractic philosophies or the politics in chiropractic.

I picked Life for two reasons: It was the closest to home (Miami at the time), and it was the first one to get back to me and tell me I was accepted.

My chiropractor in Miami wanted me to attend Palmer College, but that was in Iowa, and it sounded remote and cold. So, hell no.

I was so excited to start my new life that I crammed a U-Haul with all my junk and headed to Marietta.

Once classes started, someone suggested I join clubs to make friends.

I asked around, and there was this club having an upcoming party. It was Spizz Club. Spizz was short for Spizzerinctum, which meant “chiropractic enthusiasm.”

Well, I had a lot of that—plus, there were some attractive girls in that club.

I showed up at the party, which was at a student’s apartment, and got greeted with a long, uncomfortable hug. Do you remember the old cartoon of Pepe Le Pew and the cat? Well, I was the cat.

I grabbed a beer and started mingling. It was one uncomfortably long hug after another. Some made moaning sounds!

Fucking weirdos.

I got invited to a philosophy class while I was at the party. My social calendar wasn’t exactly overflowing, so I went.

Wow! These people were explaining concepts I’d known deep down my entire life, but I was hearing them out loud for the first time.

Deciding to move 700 miles away and change careers was a rash and selfish decision because I was running away.

Running from:

Failure

A failed marriage

Failure at real estate

Failure at finding something I was good at

Failure at being happy

Failure as a student, ten years after high school with no degree.

Here I am, listening to the speakers, and I realized this was different.

Maybe this was MY thing.

Maybe I could be a chiropractor.

Maybe I could help people.

Maybe I could be proud of myself.

Maybe someone could be proud of me.

That night changed me. The weirdos seemed less weird. I made friends, I found my footing.

Chiropractic college was tough, much tougher than I expected. I had always kind of “skated by,” but now I had to put in hard work because I hadn’t been in school full-time for ten years.

I also had never lived the college life, and apparently I was partying too much. We hit the bars to blow off steam after midterms and finals—turns out, there were a lot midterms and finals.

I almost flunked out one quarter, but there was a lot going on. My 85-year-old dad came to visit and was going to stay with me for a bit, then he passed away suddenly.

I had a lot of guilt from that, thinking that I could have done something different and could have stayed around a little longer. That guilt would resurface years later in a Craniosacral therapy session.

I couldn’t fail at this. This was too important. I went to a Hypnotherapist to see if maybe I could get “programmed” to not flunk out. Apparently, it worked.

Funny thing, I worked hard and time passed. We did it. We graduated and made it through.

Look, those brutal study sessions weren’t easy, and almost flunking out scared the hell out of me. I am thankful that Chiropractic passion stuck with me. That Spizz still gets me through some days.

Live Long and Prosper,

How the birth of my grandson is making me re-think my own future

I just became a grandfather. My youngest daughter had a baby boy.

I’m thrilled.

And

I’m scared.

Babies are pure potential Infinite possibilities, all sorts of different paths they could take.

They haven’t drank the Kool-Aid, or in fact any Kool-Aid at all, lol

Will he be gregarious and outgoing?

Will he be shy and introverted?

Will he want to be an artist?

An engineer?

Will he be brave or scared?

Will he be like his grandfather, trying to overcompensate in his later life for being afraid of nearly everything in the early part of his life?

I am thrilled. All the grandparents that I have ever met said to me:

Just wait until you have grandkids, its different

And yes, it is different.

I’m not so worried about the how to take care of the baby-all I have to do is love him.

The other day, I was just holding him and was able to stay in “the love state” for the longest time ever.

(The love state is the goal of a meditation that I do-The goal is to stay “in love” feeling for as long as you can.)

I was able to get to this place so easily with him!

He has also taught me to slow down even more. He is not in a hurry to do anything. His job is to eat, poop and grow.

I feel like I get to savor the time I get with him even more than with my own kids.

I’m Scared His mom has had her share of issues.

She is now a single mom trying to navigate all the responsibilities of being a parent.

I didn’t think she was ready, but here we are.

She doesn’t have her mom to help guide her, but I thank god that she has Christi-my girlfriend. She has been such an incredible support for both Audrey and me.

I’m scared mostly because now my own future is uncertain.

I had my future planned out like where i wanted to retire-the things I wanted to do and now this little guy has me re-thinking all my plans about the future.

Here’s to uncertainty!!

Live Long and Prosper 🖖,

-Dan

Today is Mother’s Day and throughout the day I’ve been texting my friends who are moms and wishing them well on their day.

A buddy of mine sent me a text and said “Happy Mother’s Day, lol!”

Immediately replied back “same to you!”

Then I started thinking: Did he mean that because I am both father and mother to my daughters? Or was it just typical guy behavior (from my era) joking around calling me gay.

Then I got to thinking about how today is tough for my daughters because they lost their mom to cancer over 4 years ago.

I was driving when i got the text and next thing I know tears are streaming down my face. Maybe it has been tough for me too.

These girls have NEEDED their mom on so many occasions! I could never fill those shoes!

I could have really used her help with our youngest daughter. Maybe she could have said ONE thing to her to make her thing twice about un-aliving herself.

Maybe she could’ve shared my grief, or maybe we could’ve just talked about the situation and how we can get our tortured little girl back from her uncomfortable reality.

Full disclosure: My daughters are all adults, and their mother and I were no longer together. We had been divorced for about 8 years when she passed.

When she passed away, I felt like I couldn’t grieve-after all, I was just the ex-husband.

Took me a while to realize that I had lost a family member too. I don’t think I have completely gotten over it, at least not well. There was a lot of anger and resentment in the divorce and over the years we had tried to be civil, and even had holiday celebrations with EVERYONE attending. Come to find out, the new husband hated that arrangement.

Before she passed, we said we still loved each other and said our goodbyes. I told her I would look after our daughters and made sure her mom was ok. Maybe i’m feeling so emotional because I feel like I’ve made a mess of things here or I’m simply not over it yet.

Happy Mother’s Day!

The exchange reveals the extent of the breach that occurred last December as federal authorities investigate the data leak.

Coinbase has disclosed that the personal data of 69,461 users was compromised during the breach in December 2024, according to documentation filed with the Maine Attorney General’s Office.

The disclosure comes after Coinbase announced last week that a group of hackers had demanded a $20 million ransom, threatening to publish the stolen data on the dark web. The attackers allegedly bribed overseas customer service agents to extract information from the company’s systems.

Coinbase had previously stated that the breach affected less than 1% of its user base, compromising KYC (Know Your Customer) data such as names, addresses, and email addresses. In a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company clarified that passwords, private keys, and user funds were not affected.

Following the reports, the SEC has reportedly opened an official investigation to verify whether Coinbase may have inflated user metrics ahead of its 2021 IPO. Separately, the Department of Justice is investigating the breach at Coinbase’s request, according to CEO Brian Armstrong.

Meanwhile, Coinbase has faced criticism for its delayed response to the data breach. Michael Arrington, founder of TechCrunch, stated that the stolen data could cause irreparable harm. In a post on X, Arrington wrote:

“The human cost, denominated in misery, is much larger than the $400m or so they think it will actually cost the company to reimburse people. The consequences to companies who do not adequately protect their customer information should include, without limitation, prison time for executives.”

Coinbase estimates the incident could cost between $180 million and $400 million in remediation expenses and customer reimbursements.

Arrington also condemned KYC laws as ineffective and dangerous, calling on both regulators and companies to better protect user data:

“Combining these KYC laws with corporate profit maximization and lax laws on penalties for hacks like these means these issues will continue to happen. Both governments and corporations need to step up to stop this. As I said, the cost can only be measured in human suffering.”

I love my job, I really do. Helping people feel better, getting their bodies back in line-it’s why I show up every day.

But some of my clients?

Some of them act like I’m a magician who can fix years of you ignoring their body in one session.

So, here’s the unfiltered truth—what I’d really like to say when they’re sitting there, complaining, not listening, and interfering with their own healing process. Buckle up, because I’m not holding back.

• There’s nothing wrong with you! Just keep getting adjusted regularly, and for God’s sake, stop going to the medical doctor.
• Stop saying you don’t know what happened.
• You didn’t even try it out before; you’re saying it still hurts. Move around a little!
• No, I’m not doing the fucking ring-dinger that you saw someone do on TikTok.
• No, it’s not because you’re old. It’s because you don’t take care of yourself.
• You’re only 35; you’re not allowed to say you’re old.
• No wonder you don’t listen to your body—you can’t shut up for five seconds to listen to anything!
• Yes, like I’ve told you countless times before-the nervous system controls everything, that’s why you feel great after an adjustment.
• No, I don’t really know why that other chiropractor does the “Flying 7” on all their clients
• You’re the problem.
• No, I’m not making it hurt. It hurts already. I’m trying to fix this.
• Your attitude sucks. No wonder everything hurts.
• You’ve been coming to see me for years, but only when something hurts. The best I can do when you’re hurting is get you out of pain. Imagine if you came in when you’re not in pain—maybe we could really accomplish something then! (Oh, yeah—I do tell them this already!)
• You hate your (job/wife/kids) and you wonder why you’re having health issues?
• It’s not arthritis. Your doctor just wants you to shut up about that pain.
• Tell your doctor that I said he doesn’t know what the hell he is talking about!
• You’d be better off if you flushed all those medications down the toilet and started over.
• How’s that surgery worked out for you? What number surgery is that?
• A little bit of exercise isn’t going to kill you.

I know that makes me sound like i’m grumpy all the time, but that’s just not true. Most of my clients think that I’m just there to fix the pain, but I am freeing, directing life force-allowing it to flow freely throughout the body.

“I suffer for my art”

a client said this quote explains what I feel. I think it’s a bit harsh.

What would you say to YOUR people?

Live Long and prosper!

It's time to secure user data in your identity system This post was also published with the Industry Association of Privacy Professionals.

It seems like every day there is a new report of a major personal data breach. In just the past few months, Neiman Marcus, Ticketmaster, Evolve Bank, TeamViewer, Hubspot, and even the IRS have been affected.

The core issue is that user data is commonly spread across multiple systems that are increasingly difficult to fully secure, including database user tables, data warehouses and unstructured documents.

Most enterprises are already running an incredibly secure and hardened identity system to manage customer login and authorization, commonly referred to as a customer identity access management system. Since identity systems manage customer sign-up and sign-in, they typically contain customer names, email addresses, and phone numbers for multifactor authentication. Commercial CIAMs provide extensive logging, threat detection, availability and patch management.

Identity systems are highly secure and already store customers' personally identifiable information, so it stands to reason enterprises should consider identity systems to manage additional PII fields.

Identity systems are designed to store numerous PII fields and mask the fields for other systems. The Liberty Project developed the protocols that became Security Assertion Markup Language 2.0, the architecture at the core of CIAM systems, 20 years ago, when I was its chief technology officer. SAML 2.0 was built so identity data would be fully secure, and opaque tokens would be shared with other systems. Using tokens instead of actual user data is a core feature of identity software that can be used to fully secure user data across applications.

Most modern identity systems support adding additional customer fields, so it is easy to add new fields like Social Security numbers and physical addresses. Almost like a database, some identity systems even support additional tables and images.

A great feature of identity systems is that they often provide a full suite of user interface components for users to register, login and manage their profile fields. Moving fields like Social Security numbers from your database to your identity system means the identity system can fully manage the process of users entering, viewing and editing the field, and your existing application and database become descoped from managing sensitive data.

With sensitive fields fully isolated in an identity system and its user interface components, the identity system can provide for cumbersome and expensive compliance with standards such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act for medical data and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard for payment data, saving the time and effort to achieve similar compliance in your application.

There are, of course, applications that require sensitive data, such as customer service systems and data warehouses. Identity systems use a data distribution standard called System for Cross-domain Identity Management 2.0 to copy user data to other systems. The SCIM is a great standard to help manage compliance such as "right to be forgotten," because it can automatically delete customer data from other systems when a customer record is deleted from the identity system.

When copying customer data from an identity system to another application, consider anonymizing or masking fields. For example, anonymizing a birthdate into an age range when copying a customer record into a data warehouse can descope the data warehouse from containing personal information.

Most enterprises already run an Application Programming Interface Gateway to manage web services between systems. By combining an API Gateway with the identity system's APIs, it becomes very easy to automatically anonymize and mask customer data fields before they are copied into other systems.

A new set of companies including Baffle, Skyflow, and Piiano have introduced services that combine the governance and field management features of an identity system with extensive field masking. Since these systems do not offer the authentication and authorization features of an identity system, it's important to balance the additional features as they introduce an additional threat surface with PII storage and permissions.

PII sprawl is an increasing liability for companies. The most secure, compliant and flexible central data store to manage PII is the existing CIAM and API Gateway infrastructure that enterprises have already deployed.

Move that customer data into your identity system and lock it down. https://peter.layer3.press/articles/3c6912eb-404a-4630-9fe9-fd1bd23cfa64

NIP-XX

Documentation and Wikis with Spaces and Format Declaration

draft optional

Summary

This NIP introduces a system for collaborative documentation and wikis on Nostr. It improves upon earlier efforts by adding namespace-like Spaces, explicit content format declaration, and clearer separation of article types, including redirects and merge requests.

---

Motivation

Previous approaches to wiki-style collaborative content on Nostr had two key limitations:

1. Format instability – No declared format per event led to breaking changes (e.g. a shift from Markdown to Asciidoc).
2. Lack of namespace separation – All articles existed in a global space, causing confusion and collision between unrelated projects.

This NIP addresses both by introducing:

• Spaces – individually defined wikis or documentation sets.
• Explicit per-article format declaration.
• Dedicated event kinds for articles, redirects, merge requests, and space metadata.

---

Specification

kind: 31055 – Space Definition

Defines a project namespace for articles.

Tags: - ["name", "<space title>"] - ["slug", "<short identifier>"] - ["description", "<optional description>"] - ["language", "<ISO language code>"] - ["license", "<license text or SPDX ID>"]

Content: (optional) full description or README for the space.

---

kind: 31056 – Article

An article in a specific format belonging to a defined space.

Tags: - ["space", "<slug>"] - ["title", "<article title>"] - ["format", "markdown" | "asciidoc" | "wikitext" | "html"] - ["format-version", "<format version>"] (optional) - ["prev", "<event-id>"] (optional) - ["summary", "<short change summary>"] (optional)

Content: full body of the article in the declared format.

---

kind: 31057 – Redirect

Redirects from one article title to another within the same space.

Tags: - ["space", "<slug>"] - ["from", "<old title>"] - ["to", "<new title>"]

Content: empty.

---

kind: 31058 – Merge Request

Proposes a revision to an article without directly altering the original.

Tags: - ["space", "<slug>"] - ["title", "<article title>"] - ["base", "<event-id>"] - ["format", "<format>"] - ["comment", "<short summary>"] (optional)

Content: proposed article content.

---

Format Guidelines

Currently allowed formats: - markdown - asciidoc - wikitext - html

Clients MUST ignore formats they do not support. Clients MAY apply stricter formatting rules.

---

Client Behavior

Clients: - MUST render only supported formats. - MUST treat space as a case-sensitive namespace. - SHOULD allow filtering, browsing and searching within Spaces. - SHOULD support revision tracking via prev. - MAY support diff/merge tooling for kind: 31058.

---

Examples

Space Definition

json { "kind": 31055, "tags": [ ["name", "Bitcoin Docs"], ["slug", "btc-docs"], ["description", "Developer documentation for Bitcoin tools"], ["language", "en"], ["license", "MIT"] ], "content": "Welcome to the Bitcoin Docs Space." }

Markdown Article

json { "kind": 31056, "tags": [ ["space", "btc-docs"], ["title", "Installation Guide"], ["format", "markdown"] ], "content": "# Installation\n\nFollow these steps to install the software..." }

Asciidoc Article

json { "kind": 31056, "tags": [ ["space", "btc-docs"], ["title", "RPC Reference"], ["format", "asciidoc"] ], "content": "= RPC Reference\n\nThis section describes JSON-RPC calls." }

Wikitext Article

json { "kind": 31056, "tags": [ ["space", "btc-docs"], ["title", "Block Structure"], ["format", "wikitext"] ], "content": "== Block Structure ==\n\nThe structure of a Bitcoin block is..." }

Redirect

json { "kind": 31057, "tags": [ ["space", "btc-docs"], ["from", "Getting Started"], ["to", "Installation Guide"] ], "content": "" }

Merge Request

json { "kind": 31058, "tags": [ ["space", "btc-docs"], ["title", "Installation Guide"], ["base", "d72fa1..."], ["format", "markdown"], ["comment", "Added step for testnet"] ], "content": "# Installation\n\nNow includes setup instructions for testnet users." }

---

Acknowledgements

This proposal builds on earlier ideas for decentralized wikis and documentation within Nostr, while solving common issues related to format instability and lack of project separation.

Razgovarao: Mijat Lakićević

Do januara ove godine Lazar Stojković je radio na UC Berkeley School of Information na poziciji asistenta Mortena Hansena, jednog od najistaknutijih profesora menadžmenta u svetu. U martu se, međutim, odlučuje da napusti akademsku karijeru i zauzima poziciju glavnog dizajnera proizvoda u jednom novom start-apu u San Francisku. Ono što za sada o tome može da kaže jeste da je okupljen “fantastičan tim” (o čemu, recimo, govori podatak da je “prethodna kompanija koju je osnovao naš CEO 2013. godine prodata za preko 200 miliona dolara”) u koji su investirale neke od najznačajnijih američkih “venture capital” firmi: Founder Collective (investirali u Uber, BuzzFeed, Periscope, IFTTT, Venmo, Vimeo, itd), General Catalyst (investirali u Airbnb, Snapchat, itd.); Formation 8 (investirali u Oculus). Pored toga, međutim, naš sagovornik nije izgubio sve veze sa Srbijom, naprotiv; trenutno kao mentor u beogradskom ICT Habu, ali i na druge načine, pomaže razvoj start-ap kompanija i povezivanje naše tehnološke zajednice sa Silicijumskom dolinom.

U SAD ima mnogo naših ljudi, naročito u oblasti visokih tehnologija, ali povratne sprege nema. Dačić je pre dve godine bio u SAD na investicionoj konferenciji, kakvi su efekti?

Efekti su svakako dobri za Dačića i pripadnike državne delegacije koja je turistički obišla Zapadnu obalu. Ni Majkrosoft nije loše prošao, jer mu je tadašnji predsednik Vlade usput ostavio još novca srpskih poreskih obveznika. Sve u svemu, ceo taj put mogao bi da se okvalifikuje više kao “shopping trip” za trošenje novca, nego kao investiciona konferencija za njegovo privlačenje. Osim toga, sam događaj u San Francisku bio je amaterski organizovan – niti je imao bilo kakav publicitet u lokalnim medijima, niti je postojala vidljivost u ovdašnjoj tehnološkoj zajednici.

Veću korist od toga donela je majska poseta mojih prijatelja iz 500 Start-ups, drugog najboljeg start-ap akceleratora u svetu, zvezdarskom ICT Habu. Osim predavanja koje su održali start-apima u Beogradu i Novom Sadu, njih trojica su tom prilikom odlučili da 500 Start-ups investira u TruckTrack Vuka Nikolića. Kasnije se jedan od njih odlučio i da kupi stan u Beogradu, jer se potpuno zaljubio u atmosferu srpske prestonice. To su direktne strane investicije, a ne politički marketing.

Što se povratne sprege između tehnološke dijaspore i Srbije tiče, ne bih se složio da ona uopšte ne postoji, ona je samo u skladu sa opštim privrednim okruženjem u zemlji.

Kakva je na osnovu vašeg iskustva ta poslovna klima?

Poslovnu klimu u Srbiji karakterišu: neefikasnost javne uprave i gomila nepotrebne birokratije; arhaičan sistem obrazovanja, uglavnom neprilagođen potrebama tržišta, koji ne proizvodi dovoljno kvalifikovane radne snage; sporost sudova i proizvoljno tumačenje čak i onih relativno savremenih zakona. Uvek se setim onih momaka koji su završili u zatvoru zbog affiliate sajta i dečka kome je tržišni inspektor uručio pozamašnu kaznu za obavljanje delatnosti za koju nije registrovan zbog 10 evra koje je dotični zaradio za godinu dana od specijalizovanog bloga o parfemima. Ako postoji nerazumevanje za bilo kakvo tehnološko preduzetništvo, čak i na tom najnižem nivou, šta onda reći za ozbiljnije poslove?

Kad ste već pomenuli visoke tehnologije, u Srbiji se mnogo govori da je to naša šansa, primer koji ste pomenuli to demantuje.

I ne samo to. U Srbiji nema propisa koji bi potpomogli dalji razvoj tehnološke industrije. Na primer, Srbija još uvek nema pravni ekvivalent “safe harbor” stavki iz američkog Digital milenijum kopirajt akta (Digital Millenium Copyright Act – DMCA), koji je na snazi još od 1998. godine, a predstavlja zakonski mehanizam zaštite za kreatore digitalnih proizvoda od pokušaja drugih da zloupotrebe njihove mobilne aplikacije.

Sa druge strane, ima mnogo propisa koji sprečavaju bilo kakav napredak u određenim oblastima, u čemu ubedljivo prednjači Narodna banka Srbije. Moj omiljeni primer čak nije ni ceo onaj višegodišnji cirkus sa PayPalom koji je nastao zbog zakona o deviznom poslovanju, već zabrana NBS da domaća pravna lica imaju bilo kakve veze sa bitkoinom. Čisto da stavimo stvari u perspektivu, dotična tehnološka inovacija koju po značaju mnogi ovde upoređuju sa World Wide Webom, počinje polako da menja kompletan dosadašnji finansijski sistem i, sa investicijama od blizu 360 miliona dolara, samo od početka ove godine predstavlja ubedljivo najbrže rastuću tehnološku oblast u svetu kada je reč o investiranje u start-apove. Naravno, od toga ni dinar neće završiti u Srbiji.

Posledice?

Nerazumevanje da u današnjem globalizovanom svetu niko ko se bavi tehnologijom jednostavno ne mora da trpi sve ovo gore pobrojano. Zahvaljujući poslovanju koje nije vezano za fizičku lokaciju, svako ima slobodu da bilo kada želi izmesti svoj biznis gde god poželi, a sa njim i kompletne poreske i druge prihode za zemlju u kojoj je biznis registrovan. I ljudi to i rade. Čim se pojave bilo kakvi prihodi, gotovo svi koji imaju veze sa tehnologijom – od frilensera do preduzetnika – Srbiji se zahvale na saradnji, zatvore firmu tu i otvore preko Interneta kompaniju u Delaveru, Singapuru ili negde drugde, jer im jednostavno ne pada na pamet da finansiraju postojeći sistem u Srbiji. Ubrzo nakon što se biznis izmesti iz Srbije, dobar deo shvati da ni oni ne moraju baš da budu tu, nakon čega sledi emigracija.

Najalarmantnija stvar u vezi sa ovim poslednjim je što se uopšte ne radi o običnim inženjerima, koji ionako odlaze u ogromnom broju već skoro 25 godina i čija svaka kupljena karta u jednom pravcu, bar u slučaju IT stručnjaka, Srbiju košta između 50 i 100 hiljada evra, jer je to cena njihovog obrazovanja. Ne, ovde je reč o preduzetnicima koji pokreću nove poslove, stvaraju vrednost, otvaraju nova radna mesta. A svako radno mesto u tehnološkoj industriji u proseku kreira još 4,3 druga radna mesta u privredi, dok, na primer, svako radno mesto u proizvodnji kreira samo 1,4 druga mesta. Njihov egzodus – koji se, bar sudeći po krugu ljudi koje poznajem, samo ubrzava poslednjih godina – ne samo da dugoročno znači ogroman finansijski gubitak za zemlju, već predstavlja i svojevrsnu nacionalnu katastrofu.

Dakle, povratne sprege nema, jer se oni ne vraćaju u Srbiju?

Zbog svih ovih stvari o kojima sam govorio retko kome ko je iole profesionalno ostvaren u inostranstvu uopšte pada na pamet da se vraća i pokreće bilo kakav biznis iz Srbije. Umesto toga, ljudi se odlučuju za nešto drugo: osnivaju kompanije tamo gde je poslovna klima dobra, što znači ne u Srbiji, a onda Srbiju koriste kao neku vrstu domaće autsorsing destinacije. Odnos cena-kvalitet tu je zaista odličan. Na primer, za godišnju platu jednog dobrog softverskog inženjera u San Francisku, u Beogradu se može zaposliti ceo tim.

Naravno, američke kompanije koje su osnovali naši ljudi koriste to kao “tajno oružje”, pa se tako, na primer, ceo razvojni tim veoma uspešnog start-apa Frejm iz Silicijumske doline nalazi u Nišu, jer je odatle njegov osnivač Nikola Božinović, koji inače već gotovo 20 godina živi u Americi. Takvih primera ima mnogo. Poznajem nekolicinu ljudi koji su potrošili bukvalno milione dolara na autsorsing u Srbiji tokom poslednjih desetak godina. Oni bi vrlo rado investirali u srpske start-apove, i ne samo oni, ali je ponuda još uvek jako tanka, poslovna klima nikome ne uliva poverenje, a start-ap ekosistem je u ranoj fazi razvoja, pa do tih transakcija još uvek ne dolazi u nekom značajnijem broju.

Start-ap eko sistem. Šta pod tim podrazumevate?

To znači, prvo, konačan prestanak maštanja o reindustrijalizaciji koju će doneti neki krupni investitori iz inostranstva. Oni se ionako, bar u novijoj istoriji Srbije, nikada nisu pojavljivali bez debelih subvencija i ekspresnog proglašavanja njihovih ugovora državnom tajnom. Drugo, to znači prepoznavanje resursa kojima raspolažemo, dakle pametnih mladih ljudi koji se bave tehnologijom, s jedne strane, i pružanje tim ljudima najboljih uslova za život i rad, sa druge, umesto da im se i jedno i drugo na svakom koraku otežava.

Na primer, šta bi se desilo kada bismo u Novom Sadu umesto brojnih postojećih firmi koje se bave autsorsing uslugama imali stotinjak kompanija fokusiranih na proizvode kao što je Eipix? Odgovor: imali bismo oko 15.000 novih radnih mesta, veoma bogatu prestonicu Pokrajine, visok rast životnog standarda u tom delu zemlje i mnogo naplaćenog poreza.

Ta prilika neće trajati večito. Procenat mladih preduzetnika kojima je jedini cilj da odu iz zemlje, jer u njoj ne vide nikakvu perspektivu, iz godine u godinu raste. Strani investicioni fondovi bukvalno otimaju najperspektivnije nove srpske start-apove. Na primer, bugarski Eleven raspolaže sa desetak miliona evra kapitala, mahom iz evropskih fondova. U okruženju koje im ne nudi baš ništa osim problema, tridesetak najzanimljivijih srpskih start-apova prodalo je svoje vlasničke udele Elevenu uz obavezu preseljenja u Sofiju, ruku na srce, uglavnom privremenog. Ko zna koliko će novih kompanija, koje bi mogle da budu novi Nordeusi, Srbija zbog toga izgubiti u korist svog istočnog suseda?

I vi spadate u grupu mladih ljudi koje opisujete. Opisali ste i razloge zbog kojih se odlazi. Ipak, konkretno, zašto ste vi otišli iz Srbije?

Kao što ste rekli, otišao sam iz svih onih na početku ovog razgovora navedenih razloga, plus opšta društvena klima koja je, nažalost, izuzetno nezdrava. Iako ima solidan potencijal da bude lepo mesto za život i posao, zemlja u kojoj sam rođen postala je udžbenički primer negativne društvene selekcije i jednostavno nije zemlja u kojoj želim da živim i u kojoj bih jednog dana trebalo da odgajam svoju decu.

Šta ste pronašli u Americi?

U Zalivskoj oblasti San Franciska pronašao sam jedno napredno, stimulativno, kosmopolitsko okruženje, zagledano u budućnost. To je neki jedinstveni koktel globalizacije, hakerskog idealizma, hipi etike, mešavine vrednosti koje kreira tehnološka industrija sa starim kapitalizmom Zapadne obale, umetničke ekscentričnosti San Franciska, tipično kalifornijske opuštenosti i vere u to da ovde svojim znanjem svet možemo da učinimo boljim mestom. Osim toga, Zalivska oblast, tj. Silicijumska dolina, ima ubedljivo najveću koncentraciju pametnih ljudi na jednom mestu u celom svetu.

Filozofija razvoja u SAD, u poređenju sa Srbijom, ako to uopšte ima smisla?

Poređenje nema previše smisla, jer su filozofije poslovanja i poslovna klima dijametralno suprotni između ove dve zemlje. Biznis je u Americi nacionalni sport broj jedan. Čak i ljudi koji rade relativno slabo plaćene poslove, trude se da imaju svoj mali investicioni portfelj hartija od vrednosti i svi prate kretanje cene akcija na berzi. Kada govorimo o preduzetništvu, kapital je dostupan za bilo koju dobru ideju. Start-apovi se ne fokusiraju toliko na profit na kraće staze, već teže brzom rastu. Tako nije ništa neobično da investitori u neki neprofitabilni biznis investiraju i po stotinjak miliona dolara. A desi se i, recimo, čak 1,2 milijarde kao u slučaju Snapchata, iako ta firma do sada nije napravila nijedan cent prihoda, jer znaju da će novac sam po sebi kasnije doći ako se napravi proizvod koji ima vrednost za veliki broj ljudi.

U Srbiji ništa od gore nabrojanog nije slučaj. Korporativizacija praktično ne postoji, što je posledica skandalozno visokih troškova osnivanja i vođenja akcionarskog preduzeća kao forme privrednog društva. Poređenja radi, u Americi osnivanje korporacije košta 150-300 dolara, završava se brzo preko Interneta, ne postoje tekući troškovi ako nema prihoda i zato maltene svi imaju registrovanu neku firmu. Pošto su korporacije u Srbiji za domaće privrednike skupa egzotika, većina ekonomske aktivnosti ide kroz preduzetnike – “sole proprietorship” – i društva sa ograničenom odgovornošću. Posledica toga je da je Beogradska berza danas potpuno irelevantan faktor, tako da je i interesovanje građana za investiranje tim putem praktično nepostojeće. To dalje vodi ka tome da se imućniji ljudi uglavnom odlučuju za investiranje u nekretnine, što je jedan od najkonzervativnijih pristupa investicijama i donosi najmanju dobit. Što se pokretanja novog posla tiče, u Srbiji to u većini slučajeva znači pozajmljivanje novca od PRP – porodica, rodbina i prijatelji – ili odlazak u banku po kredit. “Venture capital” ne postoji, što srpske firme onda stavlja pred izazov da moraju što pre da budu profitabilne, jer jednom kada početni kapital nestane – “game over”. Niko ne razmišlja o agresivnom rastu koji se kasnije može pretvoriti u masivne prihode i tržišnu dominaciju, jer su fokusirani na to kako da plate PDV sledećeg meseca za prodatu robu ili usluge koje još uvek nisu ni naplatili. Zbog toga svi otvaraju pekare, kafiće i kioske brze hrane: promet kreće odmah i “cash flow” se brzo stabilizuje. Zbog svega toga Srbija ima primitivnu ekonomiju koja je u proseku oko pola veka iza razvijenog sveta.

Predlagali ste pre dve godine da se Srbija orijentiše ka razvoju robotike, civilnih bespilotnih letelica i 3D štampe. Niko vas nije čuo. Šta se desilo u međuvremenu u tim sferama, da li je sad kasno za to, šta su nove prilike, ako ih ima?

Sva tri i dalje stoje kao ogromne prilike za razvoj, jer će potražnja u srednjem roku biti toliko veća od ponude da je i dalje u pitanju fantastična biznis prilika. Druge dve nove prilike su Bitcoin i Virtual Reality.

Bitcoin i kriptovalute – koje, kao što rekoh na početku, nijedno pravno lice u Srbiji ne sme ni da takne, zahvaljujući uobičajenoj kratkovidosti Narodne banke Srbije. Blockchain kao “open source” projekat već obećava da postane osnova svih finansijskih transakcija u budućnosti, i ne samo njih, a već sada počinje polako da ubija praistorijske biznise koji se oslanjaju na skupe informacione transakcije, kao što je na primer Vestern union.

Virtual Reality je drugi veliki talas tehnološke inovacije koji nama kao čovečanstvu, nakon tridesetak godina iščekivanja i razočaranja, konačno stiže zahvaljujući tehnologijama kao što su Oculus, u vlasništvu Facebooka; Magic Leap, glavni investitor Gugl; HoloLens, Majkrosoftovo čedo, pa čak i Cardboard, Guglov genijalni projekat za upotrebu pametnih telefona kao VR naočara. Ovaj mega trend će dugoročno potpuno promeniti gotovo celokupnu ljudsku interakciju sa mašinama, od toga kako radimo do toga kako se zabavljamo u slobodno vreme. Rekao bih da su startne pozicije što se platformi tiče već zauzete – bar za prvo vreme, jer su pomenute korporacije potrošile milijarde dolara na istraživanje i razvoj tih tehnologija – ali postoji ogroman prazan prostor što se tiče kreiranja sadržaja za njih. Narednih godina će se na tome praviti imperije.

🌍 Too Young. Too Idealistic. Too Alive. A message came in recently that stopped me cold.

It was from someone young—16 years old—but you’d never guess it from the depth of what they wrote. They spoke of having dreams so big they scare people. They’d had a spiritual awakening at 14, but instead of being nurtured, it was dismissed. Surrounded by people dulled by bitterness and fear, they were told to be realistic. To grow up. To face “reality.”

This Substack is reader-supported. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

And that reality, to them, looked like a life that doesn’t feel like living at all.

They wrote that their biggest fear wasn’t failure—it was settling. Dimming their fire. Growing into someone they never chose to be.

And that—more than anything—scared them.

They told me that my book, I Don’t Want to Grow Up, brought them to tears because it validated what they already knew to be true. That they’re not alone. That it’s okay to want something different. That it’s okay to feel everything.

It’s messages like this that remind me why I write.

As many of you know, I include my personal email address at the back of all my books. And I read—and respond to—every single message that comes in. Whether it’s a few sentences or a life story, I see them all. And again and again, I’m reminded: there are so many of us out here quietly carrying the same truth.

Maybe you’ve felt the same. Maybe you still do.

Maybe you’ve been told your dreams are too big, too unrealistic. Maybe people around you—people who love you—try to shrink them down to something more “manageable.” Maybe they call it protection. Maybe they call it love.

But it feels like fear.

The path you wish to walk might be lonelier at first. It might not make sense to the people around you. But if it lights you up—follow it.

Because when you do, you give silent permission to others to do the same. You become living proof that another kind of life is possible. And that’s how we build a better world.

So to the person who wrote to me—and to every soul who feels the same way:

Keep going. Keep dreaming. Keep burning. You are not too young. You are not too idealistic. You are just deeply, radically alive.

And that is not a problem. That is a gift.

—

 If this speaks to you, my book I Don’t Want to Grow Up was written for this very reason—to remind you that your wildness is sacred, your truth is valid, and you’re not alone. Paperback/Kindle/Audiobook available here: scottstillmanblog.com

The Adapter Pattern in TypeScript

What is the Adapter Pattern?

The Adapter Pattern is a structural design pattern that allows objects with incompatible interfaces to work together. It acts as a bridge between two interfaces, enabling integration without modifying existing code.

In simple terms: it adapts one interface to another.

Real-World Analogy

Imagine you have a U.S. laptop charger and you travel to Europe. The charger plug won't fit into the European socket. You need a plug adapter to convert the U.S. plug into a European-compatible one. The charger stays the same, but the adapter allows it to work in a new context.

When to Use the Adapter Pattern

• You want to use an existing class but its interface doesn't match your needs.
• You want to create a reusable class that cooperates with classes of incompatible interfaces.
• You need to integrate third-party APIs or legacy systems with your application.

Implementing the Adapter Pattern in TypeScript

Let’s go through a practical example.

Scenario

Suppose you’re developing a payment system. You already have a PaymentProcessor interface that your application uses. Now, you want to integrate a third-party payment gateway with a different method signature.

Step 1: Define the Target Interface

javascript ts CopyEdit// The interface your application expects interface PaymentProcessor { pay(amount: number): void; }

Step 2: Create an Adaptee (incompatible class)

javascript ts CopyEdit// A third-party library with a different method class ThirdPartyPaymentGateway { makePayment(amountInCents: number): void { console.log(`Payment of $${amountInCents / 100} processed via third-party gateway.`); } }

Step 3: Implement the Adapter

```javascript ts CopyEdit// Adapter makes the third-party class compatible with PaymentProcessor class PaymentAdapter implements PaymentProcessor { private gateway: ThirdPartyPaymentGateway;

constructor(gateway: ThirdPartyPaymentGateway) { this.gateway = gateway; }

pay(amount: number): void { const amountInCents = amount * 100; this.gateway.makePayment(amountInCents); } } ```

Step 4: Use the Adapter in Client Code

```javascript ts CopyEditconst thirdPartyGateway = new ThirdPartyPaymentGateway(); const adapter: PaymentProcessor = new PaymentAdapter(thirdPartyGateway);

// Application uses a standard interface adapter.pay(25); // Output: Payment of $25 processed via third-party gateway. ```

Advantages of the Adapter Pattern

• Decouples code from third-party implementations.
• Promotes code reuse by adapting existing components.
• Improves maintainability when dealing with legacy systems or libraries.

Class Adapter vs Object Adapter

In languages like TypeScript, which do not support multiple inheritance, the object adapter approach (shown above) is preferred. However, in classical OOP languages like C++, you may also see class adapters, which rely on inheritance.

Conclusion

The Adapter Pattern is a powerful tool in your design pattern arsenal, especially when dealing with incompatible interfaces. In TypeScript, it helps integrate third-party APIs and legacy systems seamlessly, keeping your code clean and extensible.

By learning and applying the Adapter Pattern, you can make your applications more robust and flexible—ready to adapt to ever-changing requirements. https://fox.layer3.press/articles/cdd71195-62a4-420b-9e24-e23d78b27452

This piece is the first in a series that will focus on things I think are a priority if your focus is similar to mine: building a strong family and safeguarding their future.

---

Choosing the ideal place to raise a family is one of the most significant decisions you will ever make. For simplicity sake I will break down my thought process into key factors: strong property rights, the ability to grow your own food, access to fresh water, the freedom to own and train with guns, and a dependable community.

A Jurisdiction with Strong Property Rights

Strong property rights are essential and allow you to build on a solid foundation that is less likely to break underneath you. Regions with a history of limited government and clear legal protections for landowners are ideal. Personally I think the US is the single best option globally, but within the US there is a wide difference between which state you choose. Choose carefully and thoughtfully, think long term. Obviously if you are not American this is not a realistic option for you, there are other solid options available especially if your family has mobility. I understand many do not have this capability to easily move, consider that your first priority, making movement and jurisdiction choice possible in the first place.

Abundant Access to Fresh Water

Water is life. I cannot overstate the importance of living somewhere with reliable, clean, and abundant freshwater. Some regions face water scarcity or heavy regulations on usage, so prioritizing a place where water is plentiful and your rights to it are protected is critical. Ideally you should have well access so you are not tied to municipal water supplies. In times of crisis or chaos well water cannot be easily shutoff or disrupted. If you live in an area that is drought prone, you are one drought away from societal chaos. Not enough people appreciate this simple fact.

Grow Your Own Food

A location with fertile soil, a favorable climate, and enough space for a small homestead or at the very least a garden is key. In stable times, a small homestead provides good food and important education for your family. In times of chaos your family being able to grow and raise healthy food provides a level of self sufficiency that many others will lack. Look for areas with minimal restrictions, good weather, and a culture that supports local farming.

Guns

The ability to defend your family is fundamental. A location where you can legally and easily own guns is a must. Look for places with a strong gun culture and a political history of protecting those rights. Owning one or two guns is not enough and without proper training they will be a liability rather than a benefit. Get comfortable and proficient. Never stop improving your skills. If the time comes that you must use a gun to defend your family, the skills must be instinct. Practice. Practice. Practice.

A Strong Community You Can Depend On

No one thrives alone. A ride or die community that rallies together in tough times is invaluable. Seek out a place where people know their neighbors, share similar values, and are quick to lend a hand. Lead by example and become a good neighbor, people will naturally respond in kind. Small towns are ideal, if possible, but living outside of a major city can be a solid balance in terms of work opportunities and family security.

Let me know if you found this helpful. My plan is to break down how I think about these five key subjects in future posts.

1. Pojedinac je Suveren
2. Odgovornost je Programirana

Postoji izreka među bitcoinerima, koja, kako vreme prolazi, postaje sve istinitija i očiglednija: Ti ne menjaš Bitcoin. Bitcoin menja tebe.

Zašto je to tako? U početku nisam bio siguran kako da odgovorim na ovo pitanje; Jednostavno sam znao da je to istina. Razlozi za to ostali su neka vrsta misterije za mene. Da, Bitcoin je neverovatno otporan na promene. I da, zdrav novac smanjuje vaše vremenske preference. To je definitivno veliki deo toga. Takođe postoji istorijska tendencija ka bogaćenju, pa bi bogatstvo i ekonomska sloboda, koje dolaze sa tim, mogli biti drugi deo.

Novac, međutim, nije uvek blagoslov. On teži da pojača i dobre i loše osobine. Takođe ima moć da korumpira, i ima potencijal da izludi ljude. Ako niste pažljivi, ono što je započelo kao iznenadno bogatstvo, uskoro se može pretvoriti u napitak ega koji vas napije, i koji se završava sindromom Bitcoin Derangement-a.

Već postoji dosta tekstova o kratkim vremenskim preferencijama i bogatstvu, zbog čega želim da se usredsredim na treću stvar koju vam Bitcoin nameće: odgovornost.

Pojedinac je Suveren

Cela ideja Bitcoin-a je uklanjanje posrednika iz jednačine. Pouzdane treće strane su sigurnosne rupe i ukoliko ne želimo da ponovimo greške iz prošlosti, naša je kolektivna odgovornost da te sigurnosne rupe eliminišemo kad god i gde god možemo. Bitcoin omogućava eliminisanje pouzdanih trećih strana jer se sam uspostavlja odozdo prema gore, umesto da se kreira odozgo prema dole. U Bitcoin-u vaš suverenitet može biti apsolutan.

Bitcoin naglašava suverenitet pojedinca, kako u teoriji, tako i u praksi. Omogućava ekonomskim akterima da slobodno skladište i razmenjuju vrednosti, ne zahtevajući ništa osim validnog kriptografskog potpisa. Identitet grupe, pol, boja kože, starost, politička ili verska pripadnost – sve je irelevantno u očima protokola. Ako vaša transakcija ima validan potpis, Bitcoin će vas shvatiti ozbiljno. Bez obzira da li ste osoba, pas ili borbeni helikopter.

Baš kao što se intersekcionalnost rešava fokusiranjem na pojedinca, problem pouzdanih trećih strana rešava se fokusiranjem na pojedinačne čvorove. Uklanjanjem socijalnog i političkog identiteta, ostaje pojedinac. Uklonite pouzdane treće strane i spoljne izvore istine, i ostaje samosuvereni čvor. I baš kao što je ljudsko dostojanstvo nepovredivo, nepovrediva je i samopotvrđujuća istina koju predstavlja vaš Bitcoin čvor, eng. Bitcoin node. Ako bi spoljni autoritet mogao da se umeša u istinu vašeg čvora, cela poenta Bitcoin-a bila bi sporna.

“Die Würde des Menschen ist unantastbar.” – Ljudsko dostojanstvo je nepovredivo

Artikel 1 des Grundgesetzes für die Bundesrepublik Deutschland – Član 1. Osnovnog zakona Savezne Republike Nemačke

Sve se svodi na pojedinačne čvorove. Stoga, se sve svodi na pojedince koji upravljaju tim čvorovima.

Odgovornost je Programirana

Postoji razlog zašto bitcoineri govore o „putovanju“ niz zečju rupu. Jedini način da uđete u Bitcoin je da započnete sa malim ulaganjem, i postepeno se poboljšavate. Nije ni lako ni komforno, ali je i neophodno. Ne možete sve uraditi „ispravno“ prvog dana. Izazovi su preveliki, paradigma promena je previše radikalna, previše kompromisa, a pitanja previše detaljna.

Shodno tome, moj savet prijateljima i porodici ostaje isti: počnite da skupljate sats-ove već danas. To možda u ovim okolnostima i nije savršen savet za sve, ali u mojim očima je savršen samo iz sledećeg razloga: primorava vas da napravite prvi korak, a to je da uzmete nekoliko sats-ova na svoje ime.

Jednom kada steknete nešto bitcoin-a, ubacili ste sebe u igru. A kad jednom udjete u igru, na putu ste da postanete sve više samouvereniji. Na putu ste da preuzmete odgovornost za svoje finansije, svoju ušteđevinu, svoju budućnost i, možda pomalo iznenađujuće, za budućnost Bitcoina.

Zvuči veličanstveno? Dozvolite mi da objasnim: naučićete da zapravo ne posedujete bitcoin-e ukoliko ne držite svoje ključeve. Saznaćete da ne možete biti sigurni da je ono što zapravo držite bitcoin, osim ako svoje transakcije ne potvrdite svojim čvorom. Saznaćete da je Bitcoin šta god vi odlučite da jeste, da vrednost bitcoin-a ne dolazi spolja već iznutra, i da maksimalna korisnost u svetu Bitcoin-a zahteva prihvatanje maksimalne odgovornosti.

Osnovna stvarnost kako Bitcoin mreža funkcioniše, u kombinaciji sa sve većim brojem izveštaja o ovom efektu – lična transformacija ostvarena prihvatanjem Bitcoin Standarda – tera me da verujem da nije samo mesec ono što je programirano, već i prihvatanje odgovornosti takođe.

Budući da je bitcoin dizajniran da radi zauvek, koliko god iskustva da imate u igri, uskoro ćete imati veliku količinu. Kako raste kupovna moć vaše bitcoin gomile, tako će da rase i vaš podsticaj da postanete prvoklasni građanin Bitcoina. Želećeš da naučiš kako da se staraš o sebi. Želećeš da naučiš kako da pokreneš sopstveni čvor.

To prevazilazi mantre „nisu tvoji ključevi, nije tvoj bitcoin“ i „nije tvoj čvor, nisu tvoja pravila“. U vašem je najboljem interesu da podržite mrežu, bilo pokretanjem čvora, doprinosom hash snage, ili indirektno podržavanjem razvoja bitcoin-a. I tu dolazi do udarca: pokretanje sopstvenog čvora znači da učestvujete u samoj mreži, što vas neizbežno uključuje u proces definisanja šta je Bitcoin. Budući da vam niko ne može reći šta je to Bitcoin, morate odlučiti šta je vama Bitcoin, iznova i iznova. Mreža je rastući organizam koji se neprestano menja, a priroda prihvatanja nadogradnje protokola će u više navrata nametati pitanje identiteta Bitcoin-a svojim učesnicima.

Šta je Bitcoin? A šta bi trebao da bude? Nedostatak centralnog autoriteta podrazumeva da je odgovor na ova pitanja vaša trajna odgovornost. Međutim, pre nego što se usudite da preuzmete ovu odgovornost, vi morate preduzeti prvi korak i početi da štedite sami.

There is something quietly rebellious about stacking sats. In a world obsessed with instant gratification, choosing to patiently accumulate Bitcoin, one sat at a time, feels like a middle finger to the hype machine. But to do it right, you have got to stay humble. Stack too hard with your head in the clouds, and you will trip over your own ego before the next halving even hits.

Small Wins

Stacking sats is not glamorous. Discipline. Stacking every day, week, or month, no matter the price, and letting time do the heavy lifting. Humility lives in that consistency. You are not trying to outsmart the market or prove you are the next "crypto" prophet. Just a regular person, betting on a system you believe in, one humble stack at a time. Folks get rekt chasing the highs. They ape into some shitcoin pump, shout about it online, then go silent when they inevitably get rekt. The ones who last? They stack. Just keep showing up. Consistency. Humility in action. Know the game is long, and you are not bigger than it.

Ego is Volatile

Bitcoin’s swings can mess with your head. One day you are up 20%, feeling like a genius and the next down 30%, questioning everything. Ego will have you panic selling at the bottom or over leveraging the top. Staying humble means patience, a true bitcoin zen. Do not try to "beat” Bitcoin. Ride it. Stack what you can afford, live your life, and let compounding work its magic.

Simplicity

There is a beauty in how stacking sats forces you to rethink value. A sat is worth less than a penny today, but every time you grab a few thousand, you plant a seed. It is not about flaunting wealth but rather building it, quietly, without fanfare. That mindset spills over. Cut out the noise: the overpriced coffee, fancy watches, the status games that drain your wallet. Humility is good for your soul and your stack. I have a buddy who has been stacking since 2015. Never talks about it unless you ask. Lives in a decent place, drives an old truck, and just keeps stacking. He is not chasing clout, he is chasing freedom. That is the vibe: less ego, more sats, all grounded in life.

The Big Picture

Stack those sats. Do it quietly, do it consistently, and do not let the green days puff you up or the red days break you down. Humility is the secret sauce, it keeps you grounded while the world spins wild. In a decade, when you look back and smile, it will not be because you shouted the loudest. It will be because you stayed the course, one sat at a time. \ \ Stay Humble and Stack Sats. 🫡

Here’s a revised timeline of macro-level events from The Mandibles: A Family, 2029–2047 by Lionel Shriver, reimagined in a world where Bitcoin is adopted as a widely accepted form of money, altering the original narrative’s assumptions about currency collapse and economic control. In Shriver’s original story, the failure of Bitcoin is assumed amid the dominance of the bancor and the dollar’s collapse. Here, Bitcoin’s success reshapes the economic and societal trajectory, decentralizing power and challenging state-driven outcomes.

Part One: 2029–2032

• 2029 (Early Year)\ The United States faces economic strain as the dollar weakens against global shifts. However, Bitcoin, having gained traction emerges as a viable alternative. Unlike the original timeline, the bancor—a supranational currency backed by a coalition of nations—struggles to gain footing as Bitcoin’s decentralized adoption grows among individuals and businesses worldwide, undermining both the dollar and the bancor.

• 2029 (Mid-Year: The Great Renunciation)\ Treasury bonds lose value, and the government bans Bitcoin, labeling it a threat to sovereignty (mirroring the original bancor ban). However, a Bitcoin ban proves unenforceable—its decentralized nature thwarts confiscation efforts, unlike gold in the original story. Hyperinflation hits the dollar as the U.S. prints money, but Bitcoin’s fixed supply shields adopters from currency devaluation, creating a dual-economy split: dollar users suffer, while Bitcoin users thrive.

• 2029 (Late Year)\ Dollar-based inflation soars, emptying stores of goods priced in fiat currency. Meanwhile, Bitcoin transactions flourish in underground and online markets, stabilizing trade for those plugged into the bitcoin ecosystem. Traditional supply chains falter, but peer-to-peer Bitcoin networks enable local and international exchange, reducing scarcity for early adopters. The government’s gold confiscation fails to bolster the dollar, as Bitcoin’s rise renders gold less relevant.

• 2030–2031\ Crime spikes in dollar-dependent urban areas, but Bitcoin-friendly regions see less chaos, as digital wallets and smart contracts facilitate secure trade. The U.S. government doubles down on surveillance to crack down on bitcoin use. A cultural divide deepens: centralized authority weakens in Bitcoin-adopting communities, while dollar zones descend into lawlessness.

• 2032\ By this point, Bitcoin is de facto legal tender in parts of the U.S. and globally, especially in tech-savvy or libertarian-leaning regions. The federal government’s grip slips as tax collection in dollars plummets—Bitcoin’s traceability is low, and citizens evade fiat-based levies. Rural and urban Bitcoin hubs emerge, while the dollar economy remains fractured.

Time Jump: 2032–2047

• Over 15 years, Bitcoin solidifies as a global reserve currency, eroding centralized control. The U.S. government adapts, grudgingly integrating bitcoin into policy, though regional autonomy grows as Bitcoin empowers local economies.

Part Two: 2047

• 2047 (Early Year)\ The U.S. is a hybrid state: Bitcoin is legal tender alongside a diminished dollar. Taxes are lower, collected in BTC, reducing federal overreach. Bitcoin’s adoption has decentralized power nationwide. The bancor has faded, unable to compete with Bitcoin’s grassroots momentum.

• 2047 (Mid-Year)\ Travel and trade flow freely in Bitcoin zones, with no restrictive checkpoints. The dollar economy lingers in poorer areas, marked by decay, but Bitcoin’s dominance lifts overall prosperity, as its deflationary nature incentivizes saving and investment over consumption. Global supply chains rebound, powered by bitcoin enabled efficiency.

• 2047 (Late Year)\ The U.S. is a patchwork of semi-autonomous zones, united by Bitcoin’s universal acceptance rather than federal control. Resource scarcity persists due to past disruptions, but economic stability is higher than in Shriver’s original dystopia—Bitcoin’s success prevents the authoritarian slide, fostering a freer, if imperfect, society.

Key Differences

• Currency Dynamics: Bitcoin’s triumph prevents the bancor’s dominance and mitigates hyperinflation’s worst effects, offering a lifeline outside state control.
• Government Power: Centralized authority weakens as Bitcoin evades bans and taxation, shifting power to individuals and communities.
• Societal Outcome: Instead of a surveillance state, 2047 sees a decentralized, bitcoin driven world—less oppressive, though still stratified between Bitcoin haves and have-nots.

This reimagining assumes Bitcoin overcomes Shriver’s implied skepticism to become a robust, adopted currency by 2029, fundamentally altering the novel’s bleak trajectory.

Ark Labs Launches Arkade, a New Native Operating System Using Bitcoin

Ark Labs has officially launched Arkade, a Bitcoin-native execution layer designed to unlock programmable financial applications using Bitcoin as it exists today. The announcement comes after a $2.5 million pre-seed funding round in August 2024, led by Tim Draper with support from Fulgur Ventures and Axiom. 

Arkade aims to create a new way to build directly on Bitcoin, letting developers build fast and scalable apps—without needing sidechains, wrapped tokens, or any changes to the core Bitcoin protocol. 

“Bitcoin is the world’s hardest, most secure asset, but it remains largely static,” said Marco Argentieri, CEO of Ark Labs. “Arkade virtualizes Bitcoin’s transaction layer, transforming it into a dynamic financial platform where operations happen instantly, programmability is unlocked, and users maintain full control of their assets throughout.” 

Arkade is currently being tested on the Bitcoin network with early partners like Tether, Boltz, Breez, and Mempool.space already on board. Arkade maintains Bitcoin’s core security model and avoids alternatives like wrapped tokens or new consensus mechanisms. 

Tim Draper, founder and managing partner of Draper Associates, noted: “Bitcoin is fast emerging as the world’s premier digital asset. Arkade’s virtualization approach finally brings the programmability Bitcoin needs to transform from a store of value into a permissionless financial system.”

Ark Labs says demand has been strong since January, with multiple projects requesting integration. The company plans to expand Arkade’s toolkit in the coming months, with support for BTC-collateralized lending, staking primitives, and multi-asset transactions. The launch is scheduled for Q3 2025. 

“Bitcoin has always had to balance the desire to scale transaction throughput and complexity with conservatism regarding upgrades,” said Allen Farrington, General Partner at Axiom. “With this exceptionally high bar for worthwhile innovation, and amidst a sea of noise, Ark Labs is bringing to market what may prove to be the most important technical breakthrough in the space since the Lightning Network.”

SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce Says “We Can’t Ignore It” in Bitcoin 2025 Fireside Talk 

At the Bitcoin 2025 Conference this morning, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissioner Hester Peirce took the stage with Fold’s General Counsel Hailey Lennon for a fireside chat that pulled no punches.

Opening with a question about enforcement priorities since the change in administration, Lennon asked, “What are the current enforcement priorities, if any, in the digital asset space?” Peirce acknowledged the public’s frustration: “Some people have taken the fact that we haven’t moved forward with a ton of these cases as inaction—but there’s a lot to digest.” She stressed that the agency is actively bringing in outside perspectives, stating, “That’s really the way to get to good rules.” 

A core theme of the conversation was regulatory uncertainty. “One complaint I’ve had,” Peirce said, “is that in an environment of regulatory uncertainty, it’s much harder to identify bad actors—and it gives them more room to operate. Meanwhile, it pushes legitimate actors out of the U.S. or out of the industry entirely. We need to create a good environment for the good actors and a bad one for the bad actors.” 

Peirce also addressed her recent tweet hinting at disclosure requirements for projects potentially considered securities. 

Here's what the Crypto Task Force has been doing and some things we're thinking about: https://t.co/YHXAYhr23P

— Hester Peirce (@HesterPeirce) May 19, 2025

When asked about the explosion of memecoins and speculative tokens, Peirce didn’t hold back: “If you’re expecting to buy a memecoin and become a billionaire—buyer beware. Be an adult. If you want to speculate, go for it, but if something goes wrong, don’t come complaining to the government.” This confirms the value, and security of Bitcoin. 

She emphasized the importance of community participation, noting that “government works for the people,” and encouraged attendees to weigh in on issues like surveillance and financial freedom. “In the United States, we are all about freedom. Freedom to innovate. Your voices are so important for helping us think through these issues.” 

Peirce’s remarks echo the statements that JD Vance touched on yesterday during his speech at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference. They both emphasized that we, the American people, have the power to transform the traditional financial system, and fuel Bitcoin. 

Discussing Bitcoin’s growing presence in traditional finance, Lennon asked whether the SEC is prepared for that convergence. Peirce replied, “We can’t ignore it. When people are free to use something, it will eventually be incorporated into traditional financial products. We need to think about how it interacts with our regulatory framework—but the key is preserving people’s ability to transfer value on their own terms.”

Looking ahead, Peirce left attendees with a powerful reminder: “You don’t have to wait for the government. Demand transparency. Learn from failures. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and do better next time.”

„Eine wohltemperierte Abrechnung hin zum Frieden“ steht auf dem Cover, und ich dachte gleich: Das ist doch etwas für die „Friedenstaube“. Ist es auch, aber anders als zunächst gedacht. Vielleicht hätte ich mir einen Moment Zeit nehmen sollen für den Haupttitel. Drei Substantive ohne Punkt und Komma. Raffen Sterben Trance. Besser kann man das Leiden an dieser Welt nicht in Worte gießen – vor allem dann nicht, wenn daraus ein Satzstrom wird, der einen Rhythmus von ganz eigener Kraft entwickelt. Man braucht keine Noten, um einen Ohrwurm zu schreiben. Mit Buchstaben geht das auch. Wer das nicht glaubt, lese dieses Buch von Teer Sandmann und lasse sich von seiner Melodie durch die Abgründe dieser Zeit tragen.

Ich habe den Autor im Spätsommer 2020 kennengelernt, bei einem Rubikon-Treffen. Das schreibt sich jetzt so leicht hin, war aber damals fast ein Abenteuer. Schon die Bahnfahrt. Die Blicke, das Zischen, der Hass. Sie da! Wo ist Ihre Maske? Ich hatte überlegt, ob ich mir das antun will, und war auch nicht sicher, ob es wirklich eine gute Idee ist, drei Tage mit lauter Dissidenten auf einem Haufen zu sein. Mehr Zielscheibe geht kaum. Vor Ort war das dann alles wie weggeblasen. Abends ein Lagerfeuer und tagsüber Menschen wie Daniel Sandmann, der sich auf seinen Büchern Teer nennt und weiß, was Glück ist: 

„Der Augenblick, den du mit dem Andern und durch das Andere erlebst, unbelangt von Staat, Norm und Konzern: dieser Augenblick hebt deine Einsamkeit auf. Die aufgehobene Einsamkeit aber ist die Freiheit, die wir als Wärme erleben. Als Feuer im Körper.“ (90)

So war das an jenem Augustwochenende. Jeder, der ein wenig älter ist, hat längst erlebt, dass keine Flamme ewig brennt. Nach Corona kamen die Kriege. Und selbst die, die solche Tage nicht vergessen wollen, verlieren sich im Kleinklein ihrer Eitelkeiten. Daniel und Teer Sandmann machen aus diesem Stoff eine grandiose Sinfonie, die darüber erhaben ist, mit dem Finger auf diesen zu zeigen oder auf jenen. Hin und wieder eine Andeutung: Das muss reichen. Der Formaterfinder, der sein Baby mit einem plumpen Satz schützt. „Nicht einfach kritisieren, mach es besser!“ Eine Redaktion der Gegenöffentlichkeit, hochgelobt, die kurze Sätze will und kurze Texte. Dieses Feld können und wollen die Sandmänner nicht bestellen, genau wie all das, was im Namen einer „Menschheitsfamilie“ daherkommt. „Liebe Community. So begrüßt ein dissidenter Moderator das Publikum in einer dissidenten Talkshow.“ (87) Etwas mehr Platz bekommt [Rainer Mausfeld](https://www.freie-medienakademie.de/medien-plus/101):

„Warum schweigen die Lämmer? Ein tolles Buch. Es hat gegriffen. Dann hat sich gezeigt: Das System, von diesem Buch dekonstruiert, muss einen Zacken zugeben an Totalität und schon schlüpft auch die Analyse mit hinein ins System und ins Schweigen und der Autor wird selbst zum Lamm.“ (21)

Ich kenne das Lied, das Daniel aka Teer Sandmann hier singt. Wie er bin ich von links gekommen und habe erlebt, „wie meine Welt leer wurde“ (23). Wie er weiß ich inzwischen, dass ich in „meinen Kreisen“ von einst nicht mehr klarkommen würde und dass es mit den neuen keinesfalls einfacher ist. Hier, immer noch und trotz alledem, die Idee, dass sich Glück planen lässt, und damit „der Wahn“, „ein Ziel zu erreichen und alles auszumerzen, was dem Ziel in die Quere kommt“ (143): „Die linken Ideen münden in Ordnungen und im Polizeistaat“ (24). Und dort Kritiker der Macht, die vor den Gerichten der gleichen Macht um ein wenig Wohlstand streiten, sich nur noch gegenseitig interviewen, die AfD hoffieren und auf Personen zielen, wo es um Strukturen gehen müsste. Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, Jeff Epstein statt Kapitalismus. Was bleibt euch noch, Kinder, wenn ihr zwar den Totalitarismus erkennt, aber nicht sehen wollt, „wie dieser alternativlos aus dem Kapital hervorschießen musste“ (40)?

Der letzte Satz ist ein Versuch, den Takt aufzunehmen, den dieser Text anschlägt. Teer Sandmann sagt, dass ihn „die Musik aus der Renaissance“ noch mehr gerettet habe als das Schreiben, und baut vielleicht auch deshalb immer wieder Miniaturen ein, die zeigen, dass Kunst auch dann Jahrhunderte überdauern kann, wenn jemand wie ich noch nie davon gehört hat. Daniel Sandmann reicht. Vergesst all eure Gegenentwürfe, singt dieser Künstler:

„Wir sind für nichts. Wir stören die Haltungen und schaffen Nischen. Indem wir stören. Wir sind für alles, was nicht in ein ‚wir sind für‘ mündet. Bloß, ist das alles nicht schon eine Haltung? Und wer sind ‚wir‘?“ (79)

Die Sache mit dem Frieden, natürlich. Es gibt in diesem Buch einen Traum, in dem ein „lieber Gott“ alle Journalisten tötet, „die neuen Schwarzhemden“ (49), „die in diesem medialen Schlachtfeld, Journalismus genannt, mitfeuern und mitgeifern und ihrer Niedertracht freien Lauf lassen“, und mit ihnen auch alle, „die binnen einer Woche auch nur einen Cent noch überweisen an diese Instrumente der Niedertracht und der Geistvernichtung“ sowie Parteimitglieder und Manager, jeden Adelsclan und alle Künstler, „die der Macht zusprechen“ (55). Sie ahnen es schon: Diese Liste ist unvollständig und mit ihrer Wucht eine Ausnahme in dieser „wohltemperierten Abrechnung hin zum Frieden“. Daniel und Teer Sandmann suchen nach Ruhe und Trance. Frieden: Das ist nicht nur das Ende des Kapitalismus oder das vergessene Stück aus der Renaissance. Frieden bringt auch die Runde im Waldsee: 

„Komme ich aus dem Wasser, komme ich nach Hause. Mag sein, dass im Orgasmus der Tod vergessen geht, im Wasser aber verliert er die Bedeutung und vermengt sich mit dem Leben aufs Unkenntliche. Stilles Jauchzen, meerjungfrauartiges Kreisen, kindliches Drehen um sich selbst und ohne Bezugspunkt: das sind die Ausdrucksformen dieses ungeplanten Glücks.“ (157)

Jetzt weiß ich auch, warum ich schon als junger Mann jeden Tag ohne Schwimmgelegenheit für einen verlorenen Tag gehalten habe.

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.

Here's the system requirements:

| | Minimum | Recommended | High | Very High | | ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | | Average Performance | 1080P at 60 frames per second | 1440P at 60 frames per second | 1440P at 60 frames per second | 4K at 60 frames per second | | Graphic Presets | Low | Medium | High | Very High | | CPU | Intel Core i5-7600K AMD Ryzen 5 1600X | Intel Core i5-8400 AMD Ryzen 5 3600X | Intel Core i5-8400 AMD Ryzen 5 3600X | Intel Core i5-8400 AMD Ryzen 5 3600X | | GPU | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT | | RAM | 16GB | 16GB | 16GB | 16GB | | Storage | 75GB HDD (SSD Recommended) | 75GB SSD | 75GB SSD | 75GB SSD | | OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 64-bit |

CEO Paolo Ardoino Said, “Tether Will Be the Biggest Bitcoin Miner in the World”

Today, at the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, the CEO of Tether Paolo Ardoino talked about the investments, inventions and Bitcoin mining of Tether.

Paolo Ardoino began his speech by saying, “last year we made $13 billion in profit. We keep a $120 billion blast in US treasuries as of now. We have committed to bring re-invest a lot into Bitcoin. We now have more than 100,000 Bitcoin that we own as a company.”

“Bitcoin is perfect, gold is imperfect,” said Paolo

Ardoino explained a little of their history with Bitcoin. “We are a company that was born with Bitcoin,” stated. ”We are all Bitcoiners at heart. Everyone in our company loves Bitcoin.”

El Salvador has been a supporter of Bitcoin and Paolo mentioned, “we have our headquarters in El Salvador, the original Bitcoin country. We support el Salvador.”

During his speech, he made a big announcement of Tether becoming the biggest Bitcoin miner in the world. 

“We invested 2 billion in energy production and bitcoin mining actually is a bit more than that. Something that we have been very shy to say, but I think that it’s very realistic that by the end of the year, Tether will be the biggest Bitcoin miner in the world, even including all the public companies.”

Ardoino mentioned their new AI system made for society and not for corporations. 

“I want my AI agent to have a non-custodial wallet, so I can grant him some money. The money is kept by the AI agent and the AI agent will work for me. Will not work under the rules and conditions of someone else,” announced Ardoino. “We have announced our AI platform recently. It’s called QVAC.”

Closing, Ardoino talked about their investment with Rumble and their new project. He stated, “we are collaborating to launch a Rumble Wallet that will be Bitcoin first and a little bit of stable coins wallet for the people.”

The subject of continuity, or the lack thereof, is probably one of the most confusing topics for anyone new to the concept of Nostr. It can be a bit of a mind-bender. Just when you start understanding the difference between relays and traditional servers, you are almost certain to stumble into the scenerio of "the missing note". Maybe its your own missing note or maybe its something from another user that you clearly recall but cannot find. Whichever it is, you may temporarily question your sanity until the full picture of what is happening starts to become clear.

As you know by now, every user chooses the relays to which they will publish their notes and other stuff. Relays are like small, simple servers. Even the most widely open, public relays are minor in size compared to the servers that traditional data-silo systems utilize. By using publishing and storing data to theses small servers, we are also agreeing to have our content hosted for what could be an indeterminable length of time, or more ideally, by a length of time clearly defined in a relay's policies. Some relays may store any and all posts from all of their users for any length of time, so long as the user is paying to use the service. Others, particularly larger public relays, may only hold data for a few months to a year, when all data is erased at the relay operator's discretion. Others yet will attempt to host any and all events for as long as possible, regardless of who generated the data or where it was published to begin with. There are even relays that will delete everything at a specific hour everyday. Understanding relay policy is the first piece to learning Nostr long term data management. Of course, nothing is guaranteed, as with anything on the internet, but to best achieve your desired result, its a good place to start.

If you consider anything that you publish as important enough to keep it around, you will want to look into publishing to relays that enable some sort of long-term storage. The reasons could be many. Perhaps you are a content creator looking to earn sustained income off of your creations, or maybe, like me, you're simply fond of looking back on memories. Whatever the case, publishing events to relays that will offer longer storage times is where you would want to start. Many subscription relays will keep your data for as long as you remain a subscriber. Simply check their policy page before subscribing to see if what they offer works for your needs. Another alternative is archival relays. These relays offer a paid service to do nothing BUT store your data. Some are readily available to receive publications as they are created, while others will search, pull in, and store all of your data in one command. These relays are not typically publicly readable without a user specifically choosing to do so. Other options for more resilience of your data include broadcasting your notes, and most obviously SETTING UP YOUR OWN RELAY. :)

On the other side, you may want to create as minimal of a footprint as possible and still participate. You can again, look into relay policies and choose ones that will delete your data on a defined schedule, honor all of your delete requests, and require certain criteria for serving your data to others. One of the best ways to minimize your presence and keep control of your exposure is by SETTING UP YOUR OWN RELAY. :)

This is only a basic framework for understanding Nostr data management, and the one that I am able to explain. There are probably many other, possibly smarter or more or less complicate ways of doing so, but if this resonates with you so far, then please read on. Managing your data does not necessarily provide full understanding into the case of the missing note (sometimes nothing may). For that, we need to broaden our view and consider what a decentralized system really looks like and how its pieces fit together, even if sometimes imperfectly.

When a centralized service goes down, every user knows it. No one is able to send or receive anything. When a a relay goes down, only a small number of users are affected. If you are writing to more than one relay, it may not even be obvious to you when that happens. If you read from multiple relays, you may not notice either, due to the way that notes propagate throughout the network. It's part of the beauty behind what makes Nostr work for everyone. Many clients accessing many relays creating a web of notes and other stuff, flowing and duplicating across a wide network that may or may not be tied to other parts of the ecosystem as a whole.

Every now and then, though, you might notice something missing. If a note you are looking for is only located on one relay that you are accessing, and that relay experiences some downtime, that data may be temporarily unavailable. Maybe even permanently, in the case of unexpected or impulsive data wipes. This can happen with your own notes just as easily as with anyone else's. Such is one scenario of the missing note. You do have the option of utilizing search tools that will scan other relays either by the Nostr schema (nevent, naddr, etc) or by a user's public key. You can choose to read directly from some other relay that is likely to host whatever it is that went missing. There is also the likelihood that previously seen events will be available again, once whatever has happened subsides, so patience is an option, too, but who has time for that these days?

There are also some network connectivity mechanisms at play. Some relays may not be available over all connections. It is not uncommon to see a slightly different feed while using wifi vs your cellular data signal, or even on different data signal locations. The best way I have found to mitigate that is to disconnect reading from relays that become unavailable at a given location while spending time in that area. There is a bit of attention to be paid in order to achieve this, but if you are looking for continuity across wherever you may access your Nostr feed, it is worth the mental energy of remembering who you don't see where and what relays they use for publication. Then, its as simple as flipping a switch when you arrive at your sketchy location.

Latency sometimes plays a part in this, as well. Geographic location, access point, hardware, software, and complexity of a relay can all effect how quickly data is returned to your client for you to see. If you notice a note that was NOT in your feed before, but you are connected in the same fashion as before, it might be most easily solved by disconnecting from the bigger, faster relays so that notes that are hosted on smaller or more complex relays can reach your feed before the connections expire.

So, no... you're not losing your mind when you know that you've seen a post but you can't find it again. It's just part of learning how to navigate a truly decentralized system. This may seem like a lot, and it kind of is, but only because we have spent so many years seeing only what the big server algorithms wanted us to see. Speaking of that, it's impossible to find some posts in those places. You actually have a better chance of tracking things down on Nostr than you ever would in big tech land.

Bitcoin 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.

## The Vibe Coding Revolution: Building Production Nostr Apps in Hours

The early Nostr protocol developers probably didn't envision this: their creation becoming the perfect playground for vibe coding. As the protocol matures and developers lean on battle-tested libraries like nostr-tools, we can focus purely on frontend magic.

I just proved this by vibe coding a performant Nostr PWA in roughly an hour. Just prompts and prayer.

### Goal: Simple. Fast. Real. Possibly Useful

My goal was to build a performant PWA first and foremost. Global accessibility through a single URL. Not that there shoudn't be trusted marketplaces and stores for discoverability...but the creation of a product should not be so dependent on all the cruft that today's app stores put teams through.

Performance was non-negotiable. I wanted something production-ready from the jump—not a prototype that would collapse under real usage. The biggest risk? Code structure. I prompted the AI to build something feature-lite but production-ready, hoping for a reviewable codebase that a competent developer could dive into immediately, and...

It completely worked!

Dannym jumped into the code and found several addressable issues. The worst? A serious XSS attack vector that could lead to cleverly designed social engineering scripts resulting in password theft and wallet drainage—the full nightmare scenario.

This perfectly captures the current AI development paradox: incredible capability paired with unpredictable blind spots. The vibes are addictive—watching prompted ideas materialize feels like magic. But that attack vector flying across your screen while you're eating popcorn? That's the reality check.

### Six Months From Now

In six months, we'll turn ideas into functioning, value-transacting apps through prompts alone. Programmatic money meets AI acceleration.

Wow and scary in equal measure.

Why am I scared? Because it will become exponentially harder to trust the open web. How many applications and websites will be half baked ideas given to AI? And How do I know that the developers haven't outsourced code-review responsibility to other AI agents...and well...who's really running things at that point?

### More on the App Itself

This app creates something interesting: reading someone's entire public chat history without social media noise. It feels more like RSS for human thoughts than traditional social platforms.

Clean. Focused. Quiet. Readable.

### What's Next?

I'm curious what the Nostr community thinks. Worth extending? The current state works, but there's obvious room for growth.

If someone zaps a feature request or throws out a "try this" vibe coding challenge, Danny and I might tackle the next zapped request publicly.

The future of development is here. It's messy, powerful, and absolutely unstoppable.

Recently 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.

@ 04c915da:3dfbecc9

One 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.

Wem in seinem Leben Schmerz zugefügt wurde, wer sich ungerecht behandelt fühlt oder wachen Auges in der Welt umschaut, kommt wahrscheinlich irgendwann mit der Frage in Berührung, wie das alles noch einmal «gut» werden kann. Wie kann die Welt sich mit sich selbst versöhnen? Und wie kann ich es selbst schaffen, mich mit ihr und den Menschen, die schlimme Taten vollbringen, wieder in harmonischer Akzeptanz zu verbinden? Kann und will ich gewisse Gräueltaten verzeihen oder gibt es das «Unverzeihliche»? Und selbst wenn ich wollte, wie könnte mir das gelingen?

Perspektivwechsel

Wenn wir an dem Zorn über begangenes Unrecht festhalten, schauen wir in der Regel aus immer derselben Perspektive auf das Geschehen. Mal um Mal erzürnen und empören wir uns darüber, erzählen uns und anderen stets die gleiche Geschichte, die uns allerdings – ebenfalls ein ums andere Mal – wieder selbst verletzt. Das Destruktive holt uns so ständig wieder ein; wir sehen und fühlen das unschuldige Kind und empfinden Verachtung für die Täter.

Die Perspektive zu wechseln lädt uns dazu ein, das Geschehen aus anderen Blickwinkeln zu betrachten und unser Bewusstsein von der schmerzlichen Wiederholung zu lösen. Wir können einmal weit rauszoomen und einen spirituellen Blickwinkel einnehmen, beispielsweise aus Sicht des All-ein-Bewusstseins, das sich in unzählige Seelen teilt, von denen wiederum Milliarden derzeit auf der Erde inkarniert sind. Dieses eine Bewusstsein möchte jede auch nur mögliche Erfahrung machen und durch die Trennung – die Erschaffung der Dualität – kann es sich selbst aus diesen Milliarden Persönlichkeiten heraus erfahren, um zu lernen. Während dieser scheinbaren Trennung vergessen wir, dass wir alle eins sind, dass wir alle aus demselben «Stoff» gemacht sind und nach diesem Spiel hier auf Erden unsere Erinnerung zurückerlangen und unsere Erfahrungen zurück geben in die eine «Quelle».

Unser aller Reise geht letztlich darum, hier auf der Erde aus diesem Zustand des Vergessens zu erwachen. Um dies zu erreichen und all diese Erfahrungen machen zu können und uns auch unter widrigsten Umständen an unsere wahre Essenz, an die Liebe, erinnern können, braucht es auch Akteure, die die Dunkelheit verkörpern – denn nur so haben wir die Wahl, ob wir uns von ihr einnehmen lassen oder uns für die Liebe und das Mitgefühl entscheiden. Der Täter sowie das Opfer sind dabei stets Aspekte unserer selbst – im Innen wie im Außen – und jeder einzelne verändert die Welt, indem er Liebe und Mitgefühl oder Hass und Verachtung wählt.

Eine etwas rationalere Herangehensweise wäre, zu schauen, was dazu führt, dass ein Mensch sich derart unmenschlich verhalten kann; also der Zugang über die Psychologie. Hier werden wir uns bewusst, dass jeder Täter auch einmal ein Kind war. Symbolisch sogar das Kind, mit dem wir jetzt im Beispiel mitfühlen und das wir gleichzeitig heute als erwachsenen Täter verachten. Natürlich kann man hier einwenden, dass nicht jedes Opfer zum Täter wird, aber man kann ebenso anerkennen, dass uns bei dieser Haltung das größte Stück fehlt; und zwar die Geschichte desjenigen, die Jahre dazwischen, sowie jeder einzelne Reiz und jedes Detail der Umstände.

Wie viel Schmerz und Leid muss ein Mensch erfahren, bis er unmenschlich wird? Mit Einbezug aller Umstände und Faktoren, der psychischen Schutzmechanismen traumatischer Erfahrungen sowie fehlender Ausbildung sozialer und empathischer Fähigkeiten auch im neuronalen Bereich kann man auch auf diesem Wege Verständnis erlangen. Sichtbar wird hierdurch auch, dass emotionaler Schmerz über Generationen weitergegeben wird und es schwer ersichtlich ist, wo denn die eigentliche Ursache liegt. Auch hier wird erkennbar, dass nur jeder bei sich anfangen kann und Verantwortung für seine Heilung – und damit gleichzeitig die anderer – übernehmen müsste, anstatt auf die Suche nach dem oder der «Schuldigen» zu gehen.

Was bedarf eigentlich der Vergebung?

Wenn es uns schwerfällt zu vergeben, also Groll und Verachtung loszulassen und Mitgefühl zu empfinden, ist es ebenfalls hilfreich, einmal hinzuschauen, worum es genau geht. Wenn es uns selbst betrifft, handelt es sich in der Regel um Schmerz, der uns willentlich, manchmal auch unbewusst, zugefügt wurde und den wir (noch) nicht loslassen können, weil er noch nicht verheilt ist. Darauf gehe ich später noch einmal ein. Oft geht es aber auch um uns unbekannte Menschen, von deren Verbrechen wir Kenntnis haben und deren Ungeheuerlichkeit uns aus der Fassung bringt. Es geht um Taten, die wir nicht nachvollziehen können, weder rational noch emotional. Wir meinen, selbst wenn jemand nicht spürte, was er anderen antut, so müsse er es doch wenigstens besser wissen. Das ist das, was uns Menschen ausmacht, mit anderen mitzufühlen und sie zu verstehen. Doch anscheinend gibt es Menschen, deren Persönlichkeit oder auch Psyche dazu absolut nicht in der Lage sind. Die keinen moralischen Kompass besitzen und keinerlei soziales Empfinden, denn sonst könnten sie bestimmte Taten nicht ausführen. Möglicherweise dissoziieren sie sich selbst so stark, dass diese für sie eine Normalität darstellen, sie diese entschuldigen beziehungsweise vor sich selbst rechtfertigen oder im extremen Fall keine Erinnerung mehr daran haben.

Uns erscheinen die fehlende Empathie sowie das fehlende Verständnis so fremd, dass wir es nicht nachvollziehen können. Uns fehlt die Nachvollziehbarkeit der Nichtnachvollziehbarkeit des Erlebens des anderen, und wir erachten diesen dadurch als unmenschlich. Denn menschlich wären doch eben diese Fähigkeiten wie Mitgefühl, Güte, Reflexion, Warmherzigkeit, Verständnis und Liebe. Zugleich erzeugen wir hier aber einen Konflikt, wenn wir sagen: «Da diese Menschen sich so unmenschlich verhalten, soll ihnen kein Mitgefühl und keine Vergebung entgegengebracht werden, sollen auch sie nicht menschlich behandelt werden», wodurch wir uns allerdings selbst unserer Menschlichkeit berauben.

«Aber der Täter hatte doch die freie Wahl, er hätte doch anders entscheiden können!» Ja, möglicherweise schon, aber jetzt haben wir die Wahl. Und wir haben viel leichtere Voraussetzungen dafür, menschlich zu handeln, weil wir gesunden Zugang zu unserer Empathie, Moral und unserer Ratio haben.

Hätte der Täter es geschafft, seinen Tätern zu verzeihen, würde er die Destruktivität, die er ab einem gewissen Zeitpunkt nicht mehr in sich tragen oder verdrängen konnte, nicht an anderen ausagieren. Es ist ihm nicht gelungen, vielleicht sogar weil etwas in ihm es für unmöglich hielt, Unmenschliches, das ihm zugefügt wurde, zu verzeihen. Aber uns kann es gelingen, diesen Kreislauf zu durchbrechen und uns nicht in ihn hineinziehen zu lassen; wir können dem «Dunklen» den Nährboden entziehen.

Manchmal nehmen wir an, würden wir das Unbeschreibliche verzeihen, bedeutete dies, dass wir es tolerieren oder gar gutheißen. Dem ist nicht so. Analog dazu habe ich manches Mal die Angst gehabt, würde ich aufhören, um meinen Freund zu trauern, bedeute dies, dass ich ihn nicht mehr vermisse. Auch das ist nicht richtig. Ich heile lediglich das, was mir Schmerzen zufügt, bis am Ende nur noch die Liebe bleibt. Und wenn wir verzeihen, ist es kein Gutheißen der Taten, es bedeutet ein Loslassen dessen, was uns damit verstrickt und das Destruktive nährt.

Mitgefühl beginnt bei uns selbst

«Daß ich dem Hungrigen zu essen gebe, dem vergebe, der mich beleidigt, und meinen Feind liebe- das sind große Tugenden. Was aber, wenn ich nun entdecken sollte, daß der armselige Bettler und der unverschämteste Beleidiger alle in mir selber sind und ich bedürftig bin, Empfänger meiner eigenen Wohltaten zu sein? Daß ich der Feind bin, den ich lieben muß - was dann?» – C. G. Jung

Mit diesem Zitat beginnt Dan Millman das Kapitel «Das Gesetz des Mitgefühls» in seinem Buch «Die universellen Lebensgesetze des friedvollen Kriegers». Die weise Frau lehrt dem Wanderer das Gesetz des Mitgefühls und erklärt, es sei «eine liebevolle Aufforderung, über unsere begrenzte Sichtweise hinauszuwachsen», auch wenn die Last dieser Aufgabe zuweilen sehr schwer wiegen könne. Genau deshalb müsse man daran denken, dass sie bei uns selbst beginnt und wir «geduldig» und «sanft» mit uns, unseren Gefühlen und Gedanken sein sollten.

Um dem – noch skeptischen – Wanderer zu veranschaulichen, wie wir Mitgefühl auch mit unseren Gegnern empfinden können, bat sie ihn, sich an eine Auseinandersetzung zu erinnern, in der er zornig, neidisch oder eifersüchtig war und sich diese Gefühle noch einmal zu vergegenwärtigen. Als er das tat, den Schmerz und die Wut wieder spürte, sagte sie zu ihm: «Und nun stell dir vor, daß der Mensch, mit dem du dich streitest, mitten in eurer erregten Auseinandersetzung plötzlich nach seinem Herzen faßt, einen Schrei ausstößt und zu deinen Füßen tot zu Boden sinkt.» Der Wanderer erschrak und auf Nachfrage der weisen Frau stellte er fest, dass er nun keinerlei Schmerz oder Wut mehr empfand. Sogleich aber kam ihm der Gedanke: «Aber – aber was wäre, wenn ich mich über den Tod dieses Menschen freuen würde? Wenn ich ihm nicht verzeihen könnte?», worauf die weise Frau antwortete: «Dann verzeih dir wenigstens selber deine Unversöhnlichkeit. Und in dieser Vergebung wirst du das Mitgefühl finden, das deinen Schmerz heilt, als Mensch in dieser Welt zu leben.»

Weiter erinnert uns die weise Frau daran, dass wir alle, während wir hier auf der Erde sind, Träume, Hoffnungen und Enttäuschungen haben; und dass diese, sowie letztlich der Tod, uns alle verbinden.

Es ist ein Prozess

Dan Millman sagt hier in Gestalt der Weisen Frau, dass Mitgefühl bei uns selbst beginnt und diesen Aspekt möchte ich noch einmal hervorheben. Es kann nämlich passieren, dass wir uns in einer oberflächlichen Vergebung wieder finden, weil wir meinen, es sei richtig und moralisch, anderen zu verzeihen, ohne aber die tieferen Schichten dabei zu fühlen. Das ist dann leider nichts anderes, als Verdrängung. Gerade wenn wir selbst Opfer von Ungerechtigkeit, physischer oder mentaler Gewalt wurden, ist es unerlässlich den Heilungsweg in Gänze zu durchschreiten, und in den Wachstumsprozess zu verwandeln, der uns Mitgefühl und Weisheit lehrt. Und dazu gehören die Wut auf das Begangene, die Verzweiflung, die Ungerechtigkeit und Ohnmacht zu fühlen, uns auf «unsere Seite» zu stellen und Partei für uns selbst zu ergreifen, bevor es ernstlich möglich wird, zu verzeihen. Zunächst fühlen wir mit uns selbst den Schmerz und befreien die Gefühle, die wir uns möglicherweise nie trauten zu fühlen, all die Wut und den Groll. Erst später kann dann aus dem Inneren heraus das weitere Erkennen stattfinden und Heilung und Vergebung geschehen.

Vergebung findet im Herzen statt

Die hier in diesem Text von mir aufgeführten Perspektiven sind nur zwei, drei kleine Beispiele für Sichtweisen, die man einnehmen könnte, um zu neuen Einsichten zu gelangen. Sie sollen niemanden von irgendetwas überzeugen, sondern als Anregung dienen. Denn letztlich geht es darum, Vergebung in sich selbst zu finden. Vergebung ist also etwas, das aus dem Inneren heraus entsteht; ein Ergebnis eines tiefen Verständnisses und Fühlens, ja eines Erkennens. Auf dieser Reise gehen wir unterschiedliche Blickwinkel und Versionen ab, bis wir im Herzen ankommen, es sich öffnet und wir plötzlich «klar» sehen. Daraufhin breitet sich Wärme im Körper aus, Liebe durchströmt uns, begleitet möglicherweise von einem Gefühl leiser Euphorie, möglicherweise auch einem leichten Schmerz und Tränen – sowohl ein paar der Traurigkeit als auch welchen der Dankbarkeit. Das Loslassen und die Befreiung sind spürbar und nur für jeden persönlich erfahrbar, der sich auf diesen Weg begibt und seine individuelle Ansicht findet, die ihn befreit und erlöst.

Meiner Meinung nach bedeutet also Vergebung eine Öffnung des Herzens, ein Erkennen und ein Hineinwachsen in die Perspektive der Liebe. Sie ist nicht auf rationaler Ebene zu finden; die rationale Ebene kann nur dabei helfen, den Weg zum Mitgefühl zu beschreiten, denn:

«Man sieht nur mit dem Herzen gut. Das Wesentliche ist für die Augen unsichtbar.»

– Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Capitalism 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.

…. “คนเราอยู่ในโลก แต่มักปฏิบัติไม่ถูกต้องต่อสิ่งทั้งหลายในโลก จึงดำเนินชีวิตไม่ถูกต้อง สิ่งที่เราเกี่ยวข้องต่างๆ นี่ มันก็อยู่ของมันไปตามปกติ ตามธรรมชาติ แต่เราปฏิบัติต่อมันไม่ถูก วางใจไม่ถูก แม้แต่มองก็ไม่ถูก เราจึงเกิดทุกข์

…. สิ่งทั้งหลายที่มีอยู่ตามธรรมดามันก็เป็นไป ถ้าเรารู้ทัน ก็เห็นมันเป็นไปตามกฎธรรมชาติ แต่ถ้าเราไม่รู้เท่าทัน เรามองไม่เป็น ก็เกิดทุกข์ทันที แม้แต่เหตุการณ์ความผันผวนปรวนแปรต่างๆที่เกิดขึ้นในชีวิตของคนเรา ที่เรียกกันว่า โชคบ้าง เคราะห์บ้าง ศัพท์พระเรียกว่า “โลกธรรม” ซึ่งเป็นตัวการสำคัญ ที่ทำให้คนดีใจเสียใจ เป็นสุข และเป็นทุกข์ เวลามันเกิดขึ้น ถ้าเราปฏิบัติไม่ถูกต้อง ที่สุขเราก็แปลงให้เป็นทุกข์ ที่มันเป็นทุกข์อยู่แล้ว เราก็เพิ่มทุกข์แก่ตัวเราให้มากขึ้น แต่ถ้าเราปฏิบัติถูกต้อง ที่ทุกข์เราก็ผันแปลงให้เป็นสุข ที่มันเป็นสุขอยู่แล้ว เราก็เพิ่มให้เป็นสุขมากยิ่งขึ้น

…. “โลกธรรม” คืออะไร โลกธรรมแปลว่า ธรรมประจำโลก ได้แก่สิ่งที่เกิดแก่มนุษย์ทั้งหลายตามธรรมดาของความเป็นอนิจจัง ก็คือ เรื่อง ลาภ เสื่อมลาภ ยศ เสื่อมยศ สรรเสริญ นินทา สุข ทุกข์ สิ่งเหล่านี้ พระพุทธเจ้าตรัสไว้ว่า มันมีอยู่เป็นธรรมดา เมื่อเราอยู่ในโลก เราไม่พ้นมันหรอก เราต้องเจอมัน ทีนี้ถ้าเราเจอมันแล้ว เราวางใจไม่ถูก และปฏิบัติไม่ถูก เราจะเอาทุกข์มาใส่ตัวทันที พอเรามีลาภ เราก็ดีใจ อันนี้เป็นธรรมดา เพราะเป็นสิ่งที่น่าปรารถนา แต่พอเสื่อมลาภเราก็เศร้าโศก เพราะเราสูญเสีย

…. ทีนี้ ถ้าเราวางใจไม่ถูก ไประทมตรมใจ แล้วไปทำอะไรประชดประชันตัวเอง หรือประท้วงชีวิต เป็นต้น เราก็ซ้ำเติมตัวเอง ทำให้เกิดทุกข์มากขึ้น อย่างง่ายๆกว่านั้น เช่น เสียงนินทา และสรรเสริญ คำสรรเสริญนั้นเป็นสิ่งที่เราชอบใจ พอได้ยินเราก็มีความสุข ใจก็ฟูขึ้นมา แต่พอได้ยินคำนินทาเราก็เกิดความทุกข์ ทุกข์นี้เกิด เพราะอะไร เพราะเรารับเอาเข้ามา คือรับกระทบมันนั่นเอง คือเอาเข้ามาบีบใจของเรา

…. ทีนี้ ถ้าเราวางใจถูกต้อง อย่างน้อยเราก็รู้ว่า อ้อ นี่คือธรรมดาของโลก เราได้เห็นแล้วไง พระพุทธเจ้าตรัสไว้แล้วว่า เราอยู่ในโลก เราต้องเจอโลกธรรมนะ เราก็เจอจริงๆ แล้ว เราก็รู้ว่า อ้อ นี่ความจริงมันเป็นอย่างนี้เอง เราได้เห็น ได้รู้แล้ว เราจะได้เรียนรู้ไว้ พอบอกว่าเรียนรู้เท่านั้นแหละ มันก็กลายเป็นประสบการณ์สำหรับศึกษา เราก็เริ่มวางใจต่อมันได้ถูกต้อง ต่อจากนั้น ก็นึกสนุกกับมันว่า อ้อ ก็อย่างนี้แหละ อยู่ในโลกก็ได้เห็นความจริงแล้วว่ามันเป็นอย่างไร ทีนี้ก็ลองกับมันดู แล้วเราก็ตั้งหลักได้ สบายใจ อย่างนี้ก็เรียกว่าไม่เอาทุกข์มาทับถมใจตัวเอง อะไรต่างๆ นี่ โดยมากมันจะเกิดเป็นปัญหาเพราะเราไปรับกระทบ ถ้าเราไม่รับกระทบ มันก็เป็นเพียงการเรียนรู้ บางทีเราทำใจให้ถูกต้องกว่านั้น ก็คือ คิดจะฝึกตนเอง พอเราทำใจว่าจะฝึกตนเอง เราจะมองทุกอย่างในแง่มุมใหม่ แม้แต่สิ่งที่ไม่ดีไม่น่าชอบใจ เราก็จะมองเป็นบททดสอบ พอมองเป็นบททดสอบทีไร เราก็ได้ทุกที ไม่ว่าดีหรือร้ายเข้ามา ก็เป็นบททดสอบใจและทดสอบสติปัญญาความสามารถทั้งนั้น ก็ทำให้เราเข้มแข็งยิ่งขึ้น เพราะเราได้ฝึกฝน เราได้พัฒนาตัวเรา เลยกลายเป็นดีไปหมด

…. ถ้าโชค หรือโลกธรรมที่ดีมีมา เราก็สบาย เป็นสุข แล้วเราก็ใช้โชคนั้น เช่น ลาภ ยศ เป็นเครื่องมือเพิ่มความสุขให้แผ่ขยายออกไป คือใช้มันทำความดี ช่วยเหลือเกื้อกูลเพื่อนมนุษย์ ทำให้ความสุขขยายจากตัวเรา แผ่กว้างออกไป สู่ผู้คนมากมายในโลก ถ้าเคราะห์ หรือโลกธรรมที่ร้ายผ่านเข้ามา ก็ถือว่าเป็นโอกาสที่ตัวเราจะได้ฝึกฝนพัฒนา มันก็กลายเป็นบททดสอบ เป็นบทเรียน และเป็นเครื่องมือฝึกสติ ฝึกปัญญา ฝึกการแก้ปัญหา เป็นต้น ซึ่งจะทำให้เราพัฒนายิ่งขึ้นไป

…. เพราะฉะนั้น ลูกศิษย์พระพุทธเจ้าจึงถือคติว่า ให้มนสิการให้ถูกต้อง ถ้ามองสิ่งทั้งหลายให้เป็นแล้ว ก็จะเกิดเป็นประโยชน์แก่เราหมด ไม่ว่าดีหรือร้าย นี้เป็นตัวอย่างวิธีการเบื้องต้น แต่รวมความง่ายๆ ก็คือ เราไม่เอาทุกข์มาทับถมตนเอง”

If you haven't noticed already, #Nostr is a little different from what most people are used to. One of the ways this is felt most acutely is with media hosting. Users are accustomed to uploading their images and videos directly through the app they are posting from. Many Nostr apps provide that same experience nowadays, but it wasn't always the case.

Just a couple years ago, users had to find somewhere to host their media separately, and then copy and paste the URL into their note whenever they wanted to share their cat pictures. One of the first, if not the first, media hosting services specifically intended for Nostr was nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7, which will be the service we are reviewing today.

Like our previous review of Amber, Nostr.Build is a service for users to pair with other Nostr apps. You won't generally use nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7 by itself. Rather, you'll use it to host that incredible shot you want to post to #Olas, or to host screenshots for your long-form tutorial about setting up Nostr Wallet Connect that you'll be posting from #Habla.news, or for hosting a hilarious video of your cat falling asleep to nostr:npub1cj8znuztfqkvq89pl8hceph0svvvqk0qay6nydgk9uyq7fhpfsgsqwrz4u's voice and taking a tumble off of his favorite perch that you want to share on #Damus. However, there are some features within Nostr.Build that you may want to check out quite apart from using it with any other Nostr app.

Overall Impression

Score: 4.8 / 5

I have been impressed by Nostr.Build for some time now, but they have pulled out all the stops in their latest update, increasing their maximum file size for free accounts to 100MB, integrating the #Blossom protocol, adding the ability to share directly to Nostr from within your dashboard, and more integrations with other Nostr apps than ever before. Nostr.Build is simply a pleasure to use, whether through their web interface, or through another Nostr app that integrates with them.

With the ability to easily organize your media, view statistics, browse the media gallery of free uploads, metadata removal for increased privacy, and AI image generation, Nostr.Build is not simply a media hosting service, it is a full-fledged media management platform. Its robust features keep it well ahead of other Nostr-focused media hosting options available, and a particularly strong option for those using Blossom and wanting redundancy and reliable uptime for their media.

As much as I enjoy using the web interface, though, where Nostr.Build really shines is their integrations with other Nostr apps. These integrations allow users to have the same experience they are accustomed to from centralized social platforms of uploading their media from within the same app they are using to share it. No copy/pasting a URL from one app to another. In fact, many users may not realize they have been using Nostr.Build in their client of choice, simply because it is the default option for media hosting for many Nostr apps.

This has the added benefit to client developers that they can provide this experience to their users without having to run media hosting infrastructure on top of trying to build their app. The separation of relays, clients, and media hosting between different entities, while keeping a similar experience to centralized platforms where a single company controls all three, is critical to Nostr adoption.

Features

Nostr.Build has a plethora of features beyond simply hosting your media. Let's take a look!

AI Image Generation

Do you need a quick title image for a long-form article? How about inspiration for a logo or art piece? Nostr.Build's AI Studio has you covered.

They have provided a few different models based on the plan you purchase, beginning with the Professional plan, which includes SDXL-Lightning and Stable Diffusion 1. Upgrading to the Creator plan will give you access to all Pro Stable Diffusion models and unlimited use of the Flux.1 model, which is the same core model used for Grok2 images.

I personally have a Professional account, so I haven't had a chance to try out Flux.1, but I have used Stable Diffusion extensively for creating character art for #NostrHeroes characters, such as these:

Nothing too spectacular when compared with some of the newer models out there, and there is no image-to-image support (yet), but more than adequate for casual image generation needs. Moreover, it is far more than what one would expect from a simple media-hosting service.

Admittedly, I am also no expert at coaxing AI models to produce anything remarkable so your results may vary. Either way, image generation is a welcome tool to have available without needing to go to an outside service unless you require something very specific.

Upload Limits

The maximum file size limits on Nostr.Build have been getting progressively larger, even for their free service. As I recall, it was a mere 21MB limit per file just a few months ago, which is fine for image files, but is quickly exceeded with videos. Then they increased their limits to 50MB per file, and as of recent updates it has been increased once more to a whopping 100MB per file... for free! This is more than adequate for most uses.

However, free users' images, GIFs, and videos are automatically viewable via Nostr.Build's free media gallery. This is something to particularly bear in mind when uploading images you intend to share via direct message. Though your DMs are encrypted, the images uploaded to Nostr.Build are not, and if you don't have a paid account, they will be viewable to the all paid users in the free media gallery. If you want to upload images that will not be viewable unless you actively share them, you must have a paid account.

Paid accounts have no file size limit, but they do have a total storage limit. I could not find anything about total storage limits for free accounts, but Professional tier will give you 25GB, Creator 50GB, and Advanced 250GB. Uploads to paid accounts are not visible in the free media gallery, so only those you give the link to will be able to access your content.

Media Types

Many file types are supported by Nostr.Built, even for free users, including:

• Image: .jpg, .png, .gif
• Video: .mov, mp4
• Audio: mp3, .wav

Upgrading to the Professional plan will add .pdf and .svg to the list of permitted file types, and upgrading to Creator or above will add .zip files, as well.

I believe other common file types are also supported, but these are the only ones specifically mentioned on the site.

Free Media Gallery

The free media gallery is an interesting little feature that Nostr.Build has available to paid accounts. Free users can get a preview, such as the one below, but only paid users can browse through the millions of uploads made by free users.

Apart from being amusing to browse through the things people have been uploading, I am unsure of how useful this particular feature is. No indication is given as to who uploaded the media, and it is limited compared to media feeds in other Nostr apps in two important ways. First, it only shows media uploaded to Nostr.Build, while other media-focused Nostr apps, such as Slidestr, Lumina, or even Primal will show media posted by all Nostr users. Second, Nostr.Build's gallery doesn't show all uploads to Nostr.Build, but only uploads from those without a paid account, further limiting the scope of whose uploads are seen.

Paid users have the advantage of being able to upload media that is not viewable to anyone unless they intentionally share the link somewhere. Free users, on the other hand, must be aware that their uploads are viewable by any paid users, whether they shared the link anywhere or not.

One incident I had while testing out another app required me to reach out to Nostr.Build support to request deletion of an image. It had some of my personal information in it, and had been uploaded to Nostr.Build and sent to me via DM. The sender assumed that since it was being sent via DM, no one else would be able to see the image, but because he was not a paid user of Nostr.Build, the image was included in the Free Media Gallery for any paid user to see. Not ideal, but the folks at Nostr.Build were quick to get it deleted for me.

In short, I have mixed feelings about this particular feature.

Blossom

Blossom is a media storage and retrieval protocol built for Nostr, but usable with any application that needs to access media via the web, and Nostr.Build has recently added support for Blossom uploads via their Blossom server: blossom.band

I will likely be adding a Nostrversity article going over Blossom in detail in the near future, but here's the basics of what it makes possible:

First, easy integration for media uploading from your favorite Nostr apps. Amethyst, Coracle, Primal and others have added Blossom upload support, so you just have to hop into your settings and add Nostr.Build's Blossom server address to start using it as your media host. No need to go to a separate app to upload your media and copy/paste the URL into your Nostr note!

Second, your media in Blossom is content addressable. This means it is named based on a hash of its actual data. Because of this, you can verify that the media has not been altered or replaced by your media host. If the hash doesn't match the data, it won't be loaded by the Nostr client, so you never have to worry about the image in your note being replaced by a different image by your media host.

Finally, because your media is addressable by its content, you can save the same media to multiple hosts, and if one of them goes down, Nostr apps can fetch your media from other hosts, just like they can do with your notes by fetching them from different relays if one relay you write to is down. This makes your images and videos much harder to censor, since you would need to be banned by multiple Blossom servers for your media to no longer be accessible.

If you would like to upload media to more than one Blossom server at the same time, your options are currently to use Primal and ensure that your settings have "Enable media mirrors" toggled on, or to use Bouquet. Hopefully we will see this option added to more Nostr apps in the near future.

Metadata Stripping

For files uploaded via Nostr.Build's dashboard, location metadata is removed upon upload. This is to protect user privacy, since this data could be used to reveal your home address if it is left attached to images posted publicly on Nostr.

When uploading via Blossom, media containing location metadata will be rejected. The user will be required to remove the metadata before they can upload the media.

No KYC and No Ads Policy

The only form of identification needed to use Nostr.Build is your Nostr identity. Every upload is tied to your npub, but no name, date of birth, email, or other identifying information is required. This is made possible because Nostr.Build only accepts Bitcoin as payment for their accounts, and no KYC is required to make Bitcoin transactions via Lightning.

Additionally, Nostr.Build is philosophically opposed to targeted advertising, so they have a policy that they will never use ads on their hosting service.

Client Integrations

Even before Blossom, Nostr.Build had many Nostr clients that used it as the default media hosting service, allowing users to upload directly within the app. This has only expanded now that Nostr.Build has added Blossom.

A very non-exhaustive list of clients that integrate with Nostr.Build is listed on their site, and includes Damus, Amethyst, Nostrudel, Snort, Iris, Coracle, Flycat, and Yakihonne. Additional apps that support Nostr.Build via Blossom include Primal and Flotilla. Some of these integrations support both Blossom and NIP-96 options for uploading media, such as Amethyst, while others only support one or the other.

I would not be surprised to see more and more Nostr apps move to integrating Blossom and phasing out NIP-96 support. Either way, though, Nostr.Build currently supports both, and is therefore an excellent hosting option if you want to use it with a wide range of Nostr apps.

Media Statistics

For those with a paid account, Nostr.Build provides information about how often each of your uploads has been requested and viewed within a given time period.

This can be valuable information for content creators, so they can determine what content is resonating with their audience, and what times of day their posts get the most views.

This information can currently be viewed for a maximum period of three months prior to the current date, and as short a period as just the past hour.

Can My Grandma Use It?

Score: 4.7 / 5

Nostr.Build is incredibly easy to use if you have a paid account, or if you are a free user uploading to Nostr.Build through a client that integrates with them by default. Previous frictions encountered by free users trying to upload large files should now be few and far between, thanks to the generous 100MB size limit.

Where things may be a bit more involved is when users are trying to set up media hosting on Nostr apps that don't use Nostr.Build by default. Exactly where in the settings the user must go to set this up, and whether to use the Blossom or NIP-96 address may not be immediately apparent, and requires an understanding of the difference that the user may not possess. This is not the fault of Nostr.Built, though, and I have not taken it into consideration in the scoring. Each individual Nostr app's settings should be as easy to understand as possible.

Another point of friction may come from free users who want to upload directly through the Nostr.Build site, instead of via another Nostr app. This used to be possible without logging in, but in an effort to ensure the service was used for Nostr, and not for general media hosting, Nostr.Build added the requirement to log in.

Thankfully, there are plenty of login options, including npub and password, browser extension (NIP-07), and even via a one-time-code sent to you via Nostr DM. However, if you don't have a paid account already, logging in will prompt you to upgrade. It seems that uploading directly via the website has been removed for free users entirely. You can only upload via another Nostr app if you don't have a paid account. This may lead to confusion for users who don't want to pay for an account, since it isn't made apparent anywhere that uploading through the website isn't an option for them.

Additionally, I would like to see the addresses for the Blossom server and for NIP-96 uploads (unless they are being phased out) added to the main page somewhere. Even selecting the "Blossom" page from the site navigation doesn't make clear what needs to be done to utilize the service. Something as simple as, "To use Nostr.Build with your favorite Blossom compatible Nostr apps, just add https://blossom.band as your media host in the app settings," would be enough to point users in the right direction.

For those who do have paid accounts, the dashboard is easy to navigate and organize your media.

By default, all uploads are added to the Main Folder. Users can leave them there, or they can easily create new folders and drag and drop media to organize it.

Every image has a copy/paste clipboard icon for ready access to copy the media URL for inclusion into a Nostr note.

Additionally, Nostr.Build allows users to share their uploaded media to Nostr directly from the dashboard. Bear in mind, though, this is published to a set of popular relays, without taking into account the user's preferred write relays.

The section just below the user's profile information gives an at-a-glance view of important information, such as how much of the user's allotted storage has been used, how many AI Studio credits are available, how many days are left before their paid account must be renewed, and how many files from three major categories — GIFs, images, and videos — have been uploaded.

Uploading directly to the dashboard is also incredibly easy. You can simply drag and drop files into the upload pane, or browse for them. If you have a URL for the media you want to upload, you can even paste it to import from another website or Blossom server.

Anything I could think of that I might want to do in the interface was intuitive to find, well labeled, or had common and easily identified icons.

How do UI look?

Score: 4.7 / 5

I would describe Nostr.Build's UI as clean and utilitarian, which is what one would expect from a media hosting service. Nothing too flashy. Just what you need and nothing you don't.

We certainly like our purple color-schemes on Nostr, and Nostr.Build leans into that with white text on shades of purple backgrounds, along with occasional color-popping accents. If a Nostr client had made the same color choices, I might be a bit more critical, but it works in an app that users won't be spending a ton of time in, except while managing their media, or using the AI Studio to generate some images.

UI elements such as buttons, active folder indicators, and icons all maintain an attractive, and simple design, with rounded corners wherever appropriate. Nothing looks too busy or overbearing, and the spacing between image previews in the folder view is just right.

Font remains consistent throughout the interface, with no jarring changes, and bold text, in white or another contrasting color, is used appropriately to draw attention, while subdued text is rendered in a light purple to blend more with the background, while remaining readable.

As such, the UI is attractive, without being particularly breathtaking. Nothing to complain about, but also nothing to write home about.

Log In Options

Score: 4.8 / 5

As mentioned previously, Nostr.Build provides three ways a user can log in.

The first should be very familiar for any Nostr user who frequents web clients, and that is by use of a browser extension (NIP-07), such as Alby, Nos2x, or Gooti. Note, this will also work if you are on Android and using KeyChat's browser, which has a NIP-07 signer built in.

Next is the legacy login method for Nostr.Build that they have used since the service first launched, which is via npub and password. This should serve to remind you that even though Nostr.Build supports Nostr login, and can post your images to Nostr for you, it's really just a centralized media hosting service. Just like you wouldn't use only one Nostr relay, you should not use just one media host. Mirror your media to other Blossom servers.

Most intriguing, and one I had not seen used before, is the option to use your npub and have a one-time-code sent to you via Nostr DM. I tested this method out and it worked flawlessly. It is unfortunately using the old NIP-04 DM spec, though, so any clients that have deprecated these DMs will not work for receiving the code. We're in a strange place with Nostr DMs currently, with some clients deprecating NIP-04 DMs in favor of NIP-17, others that still only support NIP-04, and a few that support both. If you don't see the DM in your client of choice, hop over to Primal and check your DMs there in the "other" tab.

Since Nostr.Build is supporting Nostr login, I would like to see them add remote signer (NIP-46) login alongside browser extension login to round out the options expected from a Nostr web app.

Feature Set

Score: 4.8 / 5

The features provided by Nostr.Build all work as expected and provide a lot of value to the user. With only one exception, all of the features make sense for a media hosting and management service to provide, and they are adding more features all the time.

Users not only get a reliable hosting service, with excellent uptime for their media, but they get integrations with most Nostr clients I can think of, Blossom protocol support, media organization and statistics, posting media to Nostr from within the dashboard, metadata stripping for enhanced privacy, a wide range of supported file types, and an AI image generation studio! What's more, there are additional features already on the roadmap, including traditional and AI image editing, additional plan options, expandable storage, and video transcoding for optimized playback. Nostr.Build is just getting started and they already offer more than most media hosting services out there, intended for Nostr or otherwise.

The one feature I am still not sold on is the "Free Media Gallery." The name is misleading. The gallery itself is not free. You must have a paid account to access more than a preview of it. Rather, it displays media uploaded by free users, regardless of whether they uploaded that media to send via DM, or uploaded it but decided not to share it out, or uploaded it to post it only within a private group on Flotilla, or uploaded it and only sent the note with the image link to a private relay.

Moreover, if I want to see media that has been shared on Nostr, there are plenty of ways I can do so that I can be confident only include media users intended to be publicly viewable. This feature from Nostr.Build, if it is kept at all, should have some way of ensuring the gallery only includes images that were shared on public relays.

Pricing

Score: 5 / 5

The pricing structure for Nostr.Build is exceptionally reasonable when compared with other services.

The Professional plan, which is their lowest paid tier, is just 69,000 sats a year. At current price, that translates to around $70 for the year, and Nostr.Build has been known to lower their pricing as Bitcoin goes up. Users can also get a 10% or 20% discount if they buy 2 or 3 years at a time, compensating for the fact that Bitcoin tends to go up year over year.

For that cost, users get 25GB of storage, unlimited file size for uploads within that storage cap, and access to all of Nostr.Build's features mentioned in this review, with the exception of their highest end AI models and storage of certain file types.

If I were to set up my own VPS to host a Blossom server with comparable storage, I would be paying around $14 a month before the cost of the domain, and it would be anything but plug and play. Even then, all I would have is storage. I would be missing out on all of the other features Nostr.Build has out of the box for less than half the price.

The Creator plan is close to double the cost at 120,000 sats, or about $120, a year. However, you aren't just getting double the storage space at 50GB; you are also getting double the AI credits, access to the higher tier AI models, S3 backup for all of your media, and your own Creator page you can share out with your media available for others to browse in one location.

The Advanced plan doesn't add a lot of extra features for more than double the price of the Creator plan, but it MASSIVELY increases your storage limit by 5x to a total of 250GB. Comparable storage space on a VPS to run your own Blossom server would be about $100 a month and Nostr.Build is offering it for about $250 (250,000 sats) for a whole year! If you really need to host that much media, it's hard to beat this price. The plan also comes with a Nostr.Build NIP-05 address, if you need one.

Now, the argument can be made, "But it's priced in sats, and that means in four years I will have spent many times that dollar amount on their service, possibly making it more expensive than other services priced in fiat." While that is true, it also doesn't take opportunity cost into account. Every dollar you spend on something other than Bitcoin is a missed opportunity to have bought Bitcoin with it. There's not really any difference between spending $70 in fiat to buy a hosting plan vs spending 69,000 sats, because you could have used that same $70 to buy Bitcoin instead, so you are losing out on that increase in purchasing power either way.

Not to mention, you can just buy the sats with your fiat and send it to Nostr.Build, so you would effectively be buying your plan with fiat, and they would be receiving sats.

I think Satellite.earth is still technically less expensive at just $0.05 per GB per month, which comes to $15 a year for the same 25GB of Nostr.Build's professional plan. However, all you get is media hosting. You miss out on all of the other features provided by Nostr.Build. And if you are uploading files of 100MB or less... Well, free with Nostr.Build is still cheaper than $0.5 per GB.

Wrap Up

All of the above comes together to make Nostr.Build a versatile and full-featured media hosting and management service at an affordable price point for their paid accounts, but with no need to pay at all if you just want a place to upload photos, GIFs, memes, and even some videos, so long as the file size stays under 100MB. Whether you want to use Nostr.Build as your primary media host, or as just one redundancy in your Blossom set up, they have you covered and I encourage you to check them out!

For the next review, I would like to go with another client, this time for the web, and the two options I am debating between are Coracle.social and Jumble.social. Let me know in the comments which you would like to see!

@ 088436cd:9d2646cc

The arrival of the coronavirus brought not only illness and death but also fear and panic. In such an environment of uncertainty, people have naturally stocked up on necessities, not knowing when things will return to normal.

Retail shelves have been cleared out, and even online suppliers like Amazon and Walmart are out of stock for some items. Independent sellers on these e-commerce platforms have had to fill the gap. With the huge increase in demand, they have found that their inventory has skyrocketed in value.

Many in need of these items (e.g. toilet paper, hand sanitizer and masks) balk at the new prices. They feel they are being taken advantage of in a time of need and call for intervention by the government to lower prices. The government has heeded that call, labeling the independent sellers as "price gougers" and threatening sanctions if they don't lower their prices. Amazon has suspended seller accounts and law enforcement at all levels have threatened to prosecute. Prices have dropped as a result and at first glance this seems like a victory for fair play. But, we will have to dig deeper to understand the unseen consequences of this intervention.

We must look at the economics of the situation, how supply and demand result in a price and how that price acts as a signal that goes out to everyone, informing them of underlying conditions in the economy and helping coordinate their actions.

It all started with a rise in demand. Given a fixed supply (e.g., the limited stock on shelves and in warehouses), an increase in demand inevitably leads to higher prices. Most people are familiar with this phenomenon, such as paying more for airline tickets during holidays or surge pricing for rides.

Higher prices discourage less critical uses of scarce resources. For example, you might not pay $1,000 for a plane ticket to visit your aunt if you can get one for $100 the following week, but someone else might pay that price to visit a dying relative. They value that plane seat more than you.

*** During the crisis, demand surged and their shelves emptied even though

However, retail outlets have not raised prices. They have kept them low, so the low-value uses of things like toilet paper, masks and hand sanitizer has continued. Often, this "use" just takes the form of hoarding. At everyday low prices, it makes sense to buy hundreds of rolls and bottles. You know you will use them eventually, so why not stock up? And, with all those extra supplies in the closet and basement, you don't need to change your behavior much. You don't have to ration your use.

At the low prices, these scarce resources got bought up faster and faster until there was simply none left. The reality of the situation became painfully clear to those who didn't panic and got to the store late: You have no toilet paper and you're not going to any time soon.

However, if prices had been allowed to rise, a number of effects would have taken place that would have coordinated the behavior of everyone so that valuable resources would not have been wasted or hoarded, and everyone could have had access to what they needed.

On the demand side, if prices had been allowed to rise, people would have begun to self-ration. You might leave those extra plies on the roll next time if you know they will cost ten times as much to replace. Or, you might choose to clean up a spill with a rag rather than disposable tissue. Most importantly, you won't hoard as much. That 50th bottle of hand sanitizer might just not be worth it at the new, high price. You'll leave it on the shelf for someone else who may have none.

On the supply side, higher prices would have incentivized people to offer up more of their stockpiles for sale. If you have a pallet full of toilet paper in your basement and all of the sudden they are worth $15 per roll, you might just list a few online. But, if it is illegal to do so, you probably won't.

Imagine you run a business installing insulation and have a few thousand respirator masks on hand for your employees. During a pandemic, it is much more important that people breathe filtered air than that insulation get installed, and that fact is reflected in higher prices. You will sell your extra masks at the higher price rather than store them for future insulation jobs, and the scarce resource will be put to its most important use.

Producers of hand sanitizer would go into overdrive if prices were allowed to rise. They would pay their employees overtime, hire new ones, and pay a premium for their supplies, making sure their raw materials don't go to less important uses.

These kinds of coordinated actions all across the economy would be impossible without real prices to guide them. How do you know if it makes sense to spend an extra $10k bringing a thousand masks to market unless you know you can get more than $10 per mask? If the price is kept artificially low, you simply can't do it. The money just isn't there.

These are the immediate effects of a price change, but incredibly, price changes also coordinate people's actions across space and time.

Across space, there are different supply and demand conditions in different places, and thus prices are not uniform. We know some places are real "hot spots" for the virus, while others are mostly unaffected. High demand in the hot spots leads to higher prices there, which attracts more of the resource to those areas. Boxes and boxes of essential items would pour in where they are needed most from where they are needed least, but only if prices were allowed to adjust freely.

This would be accomplished by individuals and businesses buying low in the unaffected areas, selling high in the hot spots and subtracting their labor and transportation costs from the difference. Producers of new supply would know exactly where it is most needed and ship to the high-demand, high-price areas first. The effect of these actions is to increase prices in the low demand areas and reduce them in the high demand areas. People in the low demand areas will start to self-ration more, reflecting the reality of their neighbors, and people in the hotspots will get some relief.

However, by artificially suppressing prices in the hot spot, people there will simply buy up the available supply and run out, and it will be cost prohibitive to bring in new supply from low-demand areas.

Prices coordinate economic actions across time as well. Just as entrepreneurs and businesses can profit by transporting scarce necessities from low-demand to high-demand areas, they can also profit by buying in low-demand times and storing their merchandise for when it is needed most.

Just as allowing prices to freely adjust in one area relative to another will send all the right signals for the optimal use of a scarce resource, allowing prices to freely adjust over time will do the same.

When an entrepreneur buys up resources during low-demand times in anticipation of a crisis, she restricts supply ahead of the crisis, which leads to a price increase. She effectively bids up the price. The change in price affects consumers and producers in all the ways mentioned above. Consumers self-ration more, and producers bring more of the resource to market.

Our entrepreneur has done a truly incredible thing. She has predicted the future, and by so doing has caused every individual in the economy to prepare for a shortage they don't even know is coming! And, by discouraging consumption and encouraging production ahead of time, she blunts the impact the crisis will have. There will be more of the resource to go around when it is needed most.

On top of this, our entrepreneur still has her stockpile she saved back when everyone else was blithely using it up. She can now further mitigate the damage of the crisis by selling her stock during the worst of it, when people are most desperate for relief. She will know when this is because the price will tell her, but only if it is allowed to adjust freely. When the price is at its highest is when people need the resource the most, and those willing to pay will not waste it or hoard it. They will put it to its highest valued use.

The economy is like a big bus we are all riding in, going down a road with many twists and turns. Just as it is difficult to see into the future, it is difficult to see out the bus windows at the road ahead.

On the dashboard, we don't have a speedometer or fuel gauge. Instead we have all the prices for everything in the economy. Prices are what tell us the condition of the bus and the road. They tell us everything. Without them, we are blind.

Good times are a smooth road. Consumer prices and interest rates are low, investment returns are steady. We hit the gas and go fast. But, the road is not always straight and smooth. Sometimes there are sharp turns and rough patches. Successful entrepreneurs are the ones who can see what is coming better than everyone else. They are our navigators.

When they buy up scarce resources ahead of a crisis, they are hitting the brakes and slowing us down. When they divert resources from one area to another, they are steering us onto a smoother path. By their actions in the market, they adjust the prices on our dashboard to reflect the conditions of the road ahead, so we can prepare for, navigate and get through the inevitable difficulties we will face.

Interfering with the dashboard by imposing price floors or price caps doesn't change the conditions of the road (the number of toilet paper rolls in existence hasn't changed). All it does is distort our perception of those conditions. We think the road is still smooth--our heavy foot stomping the gas--as we crash onto a rocky dirt road at 80 miles per hour (empty shelves at the store for weeks on end).

Supply, demand and prices are laws of nature. All of this is just how things work. It isn't right or wrong in a moral sense. Price caps lead to waste, shortages and hoarding as surely as water flows downhill. The opposite--allowing prices to adjust freely--leads to conservation of scarce resources and their being put to their highest valued use. And yes, it leads to profits for the entrepreneurs who were able to correctly predict future conditions, and losses for those who weren't.

Is it fair that they should collect these profits? On the one hand, anyone could have stocked up on toilet paper, hand sanitizer and face masks at any time before the crisis, so we all had a fair chance to get the supplies cheaply. On the other hand, it just feels wrong that some should profit so much at a time when there is so much need.

Our instinct in the moment is to see the entrepreneur as a villain, greedy "price gouger". But we don't see the long chain of economic consequences the led to the situation we feel is unfair.

If it weren't for anti-price-gouging laws, the major retailers would have raised their prices long before the crisis became acute. When they saw demand outstrip supply, they would have raised prices, not by 100 fold, but gradually and long before anyone knew how serious things would have become. Late comers would have had to pay more, but at least there would be something left on the shelf.

As an entrepreneur, why take risks trying to anticipate the future if you can't reap the reward when you are right? Instead of letting instead of letting entrepreneurs--our navigators--guide us, we are punishing and vilifying them, trying to force prices to reflect a reality that simply doesn't exist.

In a crisis, more than any other time, prices must be allowed to fluctuate. To do otherwise is to blind ourselves at a time when danger and uncertainty abound. It is economic suicide.

In a crisis, there is great need, and the way to meet that need is not by pretending it's not there, by forcing prices to reflect a world where there isn't need. They way to meet the need is the same it has always been, through charity.

If the people in government want to help, the best way for the to do so is to be charitable and reduce their taxes and fees as much as possible, ideally to zero in a time of crisis. Amazon, for example, could instantly reduce the price of all crisis related necessities by 20% if they waived their fee. This would allow for more uses by more people of these scarce supplies as hoarders release their stockpiles on to the market, knowing they can get 20% more for their stock. Governments could reduce or eliminate their tax burden on high-demand, crisis-related items and all the factors that go into their production, with the same effect: a reduction in prices and expansion of supply. All of us, including the successful entrepreneurs and the wealthy for whom high prices are not a great burden, could donate to relief efforts.

These ideas are not new or untested. This is core micro economics. It has been taught for hundreds of years in universities the world over. The fact that every crisis that comes along stirs up ire against entrepreneurs indicates not that the economics is wrong, but that we have a strong visceral reaction against what we perceive to be unfairness. This is as it should be. Unfairness is wrong and the anger it stirs in us should compel us to right the wrong. Our anger itself isn't wrong, it's just misplaced.

Entrepreneurs didn't cause the prices to rise. Our reaction to a virus did that. We saw a serious threat and an uncertain future and followed our natural impulse to hoard. Because prices at major retail suppliers didn't rise, that impulse ran rampant and we cleared the shelves until there was nothing left. We ran the bus right off the road and them blamed the entrepreneurs for showing us the reality of our situation, for shaking us out of the fantasy of low prices.

All of this is not to say that entrepreneurs are high-minded public servants. They are just doing their job. Staking your money on an uncertain future is a risky business. There are big risks and big rewards. Most entrepreneurs just scrape by or lose their capital in failed ventures.

However, the ones that get it right must be allowed to keep their profits, or else no one will try and we'll all be driving blind. We need our navigators. It doesn't even matter if they know all the positive effects they are having on the rest of us and the economy as a whole. So long as they are buying low and selling high--so long as they are doing their job--they will be guiding the rest of us through the good times and the bad, down the open road and through the rough spots.

Die Triebfeder unserer Arbeit wird immer die Vision für einen Kontinent sein, \ der durch Demokratie, Rechtsstaatlichkeit, die Achtung der Grundfreiheiten \ und die Ausrichtung auf seine Bürgerinnen und Bürger geeint ist. \ Europäische Kommission

Nichts könnte weiter von der Realität entfernt sein, als die gängigen Beteuerungen politischer Mandatsträger:*Inne:*n, für das Wohl der Bürger zu arbeiten. Dasselbe gilt für die Phrasen der EU-Kommission bezüglich ihrer «Bemühungen» zum Schutz von Demokratie und Rechtsstaatlichkeit.

In ihrer Rede als Preisträgerin des diesjährigen Aachener Karlspreises betonte Kommissionspräsidentin von der Leyen denn gestern auch, eine von vier zentralen Aufgaben sei es, «unsere Demokratie zu erneuern und zu stärken». Geehrt wurde sie zynischerweise «für ihre Verdienste um die Einheit der Mitgliedstaaten, die Eindämmung der Pandemie, die Geschlossenheit des Verteidigungswillens gegen Russland und die Impulse zum Green Deal».

Im Rahmen der Initiative «Europäischer Schutzschild für die Demokratie» hat die Kommission diese Woche zur Stärkung des europäischen Faktencheck-Netzwerks aufgerufen und dafür weitere fünf Millionen Euro bereitgestellt. Zu den wichtigsten Maßnahmen gehöre es, «Faktenprüfer» vor Belästigung zu schützen sowie gegen «Desinformation und ausländische Einmischung», darunter auch «Pro-Kreml-Desinformationsnarrative» zu kämpfen.

Die Rechtfertigung all solcher Maßnahmen bastelt man sich permanent selber. Mehr hochkarätige Verschwörung und Desinformation als zum Beispiel im Kontext des «Pfizergate»-Skandals oder der langjährigen «Biden-Show», die «an ein autoritäres System erinnert», sind eigentlich kaum vorstellbar. Zum Schutz der offiziellen Narrative finanzierte die US-Regierung nach neuen Erkenntnissen auch in Deutschland und der Schweiz Kampagnen im Kampf gegen die freie Meinungsäußerung.

Derweil gibt es angeblich ein Rekordhoch beim Vertrauen in die Institutionen, und die EU-Bürger denken größtenteils Folgendes:

Entsprechend wollen wir alle sicher auch Vorschriften wie den Digital Services Act voranbringen, «um ein faires und offenes Umfeld für Online-Plattformen zu sichern». Ebenso warten wir natürlich ungeduldig auf den digitalen Euro, den die Europäische Zentralbank mit Nachdruck vorantreibt. Dass dieses Mittel jedoch das genaue Gegenteil der behaupteten Inklusion ist, dürfte sich inzwischen herumgesprochen haben.

Die Verknüpfung von staatlichem digitalem Geld mit einer biometrischen digitalen Identität ist das perfekte Kontrollinstrument und der Sargnagel für elementare bürgerliche Freiheiten. Aber genau das ist weltweit der Weg, gefördert von einer mächtigen Lobby. Transition News hat oft über diese Entwicklung berichtet, zum Beispiel hier, hier und hier.

In Thailand verteilt die Regierung digitales, programmiertes Helikoptergeld gegen die Nutzung einer offiziellen Wallet mit biometrischem Gesichtsabgleich, auch wenn das «Konjunkturprogramm» aktuell suspendiert ist. Und in Vietnam werden Geschäftskunden ab Juli ohne biometrische Verifizierung ihre Bankkonten nicht mehr benutzen können.

Die deutsche Bundesregierung, die wie die EU «nie mehr Gas aus Russland» will, hat gerade beschlosssen, wenigstens die Verwaltung über alle Ebenen besser digital zu vernetzen. Das sei ein wichtiger Baustein für den nationalen und europäischen Datenaustausch zwischen Behörden, heißt es aus dem Digitalministerium, von dem auch die Vision des digitalen «Next Germany» stammt.

Diese «Datenautobahn» kompensiert dann vermutlich für viele Bürgerinnen die steigenden Energierechnungen und dürfte auch in den Augen der Wirtschaft Priorität haben. Immerhin wird die Bürokratie modernisiert und das zu verwaltende Subjekt kann sich darauf verlassen, dass seine einmal irgendwo eingegebenen Daten überall verfügbar sind und nie mehr verloren gehen. Das ist doch eine beruhigende Perspektive.

A Tennessee Valley Authority benyújtotta az első amerikai BWRX-300 SMR építési kérelmet

A Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) hivatalosan is benyújtotta az amerikai Nukleáris Szabályozási Bizottsághoz (NRC) a GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy BWRX-300 kis moduláris reaktor (SMR) építésére vonatkozó kérelmet a Clinch River telephelyen. Ez jelentős lépés az SMR-ek amerikai bevezetésében, és jól mutatja a fejlett nukleáris reaktortechnológiák kereskedelmi hasznosításának lendületét. A BWRX-300-at úgy tervezték, hogy rugalmas, skálázható nukleáris energiamegoldást kínáljon, amely széles körben alkalmazható lehet az USA energiaszektorában.

A NuScale előrehaladott tárgyalásokat folytat SMR telepítésekről 2030-ig

Az amerikai NuScale Power nukleáris reaktorvállalat előrehaladott tárgyalásokat folytat több potenciális ügyféllel SMR technológiájának telepítéséről, és akár 2030-ra működő erőművet szállíthat. A korai alkalmazók között lehetnek adatközpontok, nehézipari szereplők és közművek is, ami jól mutatja az előrehaladott nukleáris megoldások iránti növekvő érdeklődést különböző energiaigényes ágazatokban. Ez a fejlemény kiemeli az SMR-ek növekvő szerepét a globális dekarbonizációs és energiabiztonsági stratégiákban.

Nemzetközi fókusz: érintetti bevonás és munkaerő-fejlesztés

Az IAEA Nemzetközi Konferenciája a Nukleáris Energia Programok Érintetti Bevonásáról ma zárult, ahol kiemelték az átlátható kommunikáció jelentőségét a nukleáris hulladékkezelés és vészhelyzetek során. A konferencia hangsúlyozta a diverzifikált, magasan képzett nukleáris munkaerő fejlesztésének stratégiáit is, beleértve az oktatási partnerségeket és a célzott képzéseket a hátrányos helyzetű csoportok számára. Ezek a témák globális szinten is elismerik, hogy a közbizalom és a tehetséggondozás kulcsfontosságú a nukleáris energia jövőbeni sikeréhez.

Globális politikai változások és piaci trendek

Az elmúlt hetekben több országban jelentős politikai változások történtek:

• Belgium visszavonta a 2003-as atomerőmű-lezárási törvényt, így ismét lehetőség nyílik új nukleáris létesítmények építésére.
• Dánia újraértékeli évtizedek óta fennálló nukleáris tilalmát, és új elemzést rendelt a nukleáris energia lehetséges szerepéről.
• Vietnam és más országok is előrehaladott tárgyalásokat folytatnak új atomerőművek építéséről.
• Az Európai Bizottság előkészíti az orosz nukleáris energiaimport fokozatos kivezetését, és hamarosan új jogszabályjavaslatokat terjeszt elő.
• Az Egyesült Államokban a 2026-os költségvetési év elnöki javaslatában csökkentik a Nukleáris Energia Hivatal finanszírozását, ugyanakkor regionális együttműködési megállapodásokat írnak alá a fejlett nukleáris technológiák támogatására a Mountain West régióban.

Kína tíz új atomerőművi reaktort hagyott jóvá

Kína Államtanácsa jóváhagyta tíz új atomerőművi reaktor építését öt projekt keretében, köztük nyolc Hualong One egységet. Ezek a projektek jelentős bővülést jelentenek Kína nukleáris kapacitásában; az előkészületek már zajlanak, a tényleges építkezések a hatósági engedélyek után indulnak. Ez is mutatja, hogy Kína elkötelezett a nukleáris energia mellett, mint a tiszta energiaellátás egyik alappillére.

Iparági kilátások: optimizmus és befektetések

Az iparág vezetői egészséges, optimista képet festenek a nukleáris szektorról: az Egyesült Államokban (például TerraPower és X-energy) aktív projektek zajlanak, Lengyelországban új partnerségek születnek, és nő a magánbefektetés a fejlett nukleáris üzemanyaggyártásban. Emellett egyre nagyobb várakozás övezi, hogy a Világbank hamarosan megváltoztathatja politikáját, és lehetővé teheti a nukleáris projektek finanszírozását, ami további globális beruházásokat indíthat el a szektorban.

All of my outfit conversion mods and Nora's Commonwealth Reconstruction Project have requirements that are on Nexus and nowhere else. Exception for the outfit conversions is Devious Devices which is noted and links provided to Lovers Lab and other requirements. My mods are dependent on those original mods to work. If/when the originals come to DEG then I will update and remove the Nexus links in my descriptions.

I have been recently building NFDB, a new relay DB. This post is meant as a short overview.

Regular relays have challenges

Current relay software have significant challenges, which I have experienced when hosting Nostr.land: - Scalability is only supported by adding full replicas, which does not scale to large relays. - Most relays use slow databases and are not optimized for large scale usage. - Search is near-impossible to implement on standard relays. - Privacy features such as NIP-42 are lacking. - Regular DB maintenance tasks on normal relays require extended downtime. - Fault-tolerance is implemented, if any, using a load balancer, which is limited. - Personalization and advanced filtering is not possible. - Local caching is not supported.

NFDB: A scalable database for large relays

NFDB is a new database meant for medium-large scale relays, built on FoundationDB that provides: - Near-unlimited scalability - Extended fault tolerance - Instant loading - Better search - Better personalization - and more.

Search

NFDB has extended search capabilities including: - Semantic search: Search for meaning, not words. - Interest-based search: Highlight content you care about. - Multi-faceted queries: Easily filter by topic, author group, keywords, and more at the same time. - Wide support for event kinds, including users, articles, etc.

Personalization

NFDB allows significant personalization: - Customized algorithms: Be your own algorithm. - Spam filtering: Filter content to your WoT, and use advanced spam filters. - Topic mutes: Mute topics, not keywords. - Media filtering: With Nostr.build, you will be able to filter NSFW and other content - Low data mode: Block notes that use high amounts of cellular data. - and more

Other

NFDB has support for many other features such as: - NIP-42: Protect your privacy with private drafts and DMs - Microrelays: Easily deploy your own personal microrelay - Containers: Dedicated, fast storage for discoverability events such as relay lists

Calcite: A local microrelay database

Calcite is a lightweight, local version of NFDB that is meant for microrelays and caching, meant for thousands of personal microrelays.

Calcite HA is an additional layer that allows live migration and relay failover in under 30 seconds, providing higher availability compared to current relays with greater simplicity. Calcite HA is enabled in all Calcite deployments.

For zero-downtime, NFDB is recommended.

Noswhere SmartCache

Relays are fixed in one location, but users can be anywhere.

Noswhere SmartCache is a CDN for relays that dynamically caches data on edge servers closest to you, allowing: - Multiple regions around the world - Improved throughput and performance - Faster loading times

routerd

routerd is a custom load-balancer optimized for Nostr relays, integrated with SmartCache.

routerd is specifically integrated with NFDB and Calcite HA to provide fast failover and high performance.

Ending notes

NFDB is planned to be deployed to Nostr.land in the coming weeks.

A lot more is to come. 👀️️️️️️

Saifedean Ammous: “Nothing Stops This Train” – Tether, Bitcoin, and the Endgame for the Dollar

Saifedean Ammous, CEO of Saifedean.com and author of The Bitcoin Standard, delivered a data-driven keynote at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference, warning of inevitable U.S. dollar decline and positioning Bitcoin as the only rational hedge. “Default, devaluation, or default by devaluation are inevitable,” Ammous declared, adding pointedly, “Tether can’t fix what a century of fiat democracy ruined.”

Using projections and flow charts, Ammous argued that Tether’s Bitcoin strategy could soon outpace its U.S. dollar reserves. “Then Tether will break the peg upwards,” he said, predicting a scenario where 1 USDT could equal 1.02 USD and continue revaluing as the dollar weakens. “Tether becomes a relatively stablecoin as the dollar declines.”

The talk emphasized what Ammous described as a self-reinforcing loop: as USDT demand rises, so does Tether’s need for BTC reserves, which drives up Bitcoin prices—leading to even more revaluation. “This is a significant impact on the market,” he said. “Buying bitcoin is the smartest thing anybody could do.”

In a final sweeping statement, Ammous forecasted the end of the USD era. “Eventually, USD reserves go to zero next to BTC reserves,” he said. “USDT keeps getting revalued upward until it is redeemable in bitcoin. USDT → BTCT.” He called Tether a “transition monetary system” and concluded, “Even the most bullish scenario for USD is much more bullish for BTC.” 

To Ammous, the dollar is locked in a downward spiral while Bitcoin, with its “number go up technology,” continues rising. “The thing that goes up is going to overtake the thing that goes down,” he said—summarizing his entire argument in one sentence.

This post Saifedean Ammous: “Nothing Stops This Train” – Tether, Bitcoin, and the Endgame for the Dollar first appeared on Bitcoin Magazine and is written by Jenna Montgomery.

If you manage to get it up to date / uncorrupt the data, I give you full liberties to:

• The model itself
• Its XMF and/or XML skeleton
• Patching it to be compatible with any other gun mods
• other fixes
• and full credit handed over to you

I think this has honestly been abandoned by it's original developer, and since I am just hanging onto the file? I decided it'd be better maintained in someone elses hands, and with community much more responsible than Nexus. Honestly if I did not archive this mod? It would of been vaporware.

But in it's current state it's not fit for being playable. I did manage to save media of when it was playable however.

Assim como a grande maioria dos brasileiros, eu não comecei um negócio porque "queria empreender". Muito pelo contrário, eu precisava para poder pagar as contas e manter o básico.

Então, vamos explorar essa pequena história e ver onde chegamos hoje.

Festas, Open Bar e Camisas

Meu primeiro negócio foi, na verdade, um combo. Eu tinha saído do último emprego e gostava muito de festas. Então, comecei a organizar uma festa mensalmente na casa do meu pai. Eu pagava a água, a energia e dava uma grana para ele. Em troca, organizava festas de sábado para domingo com open bar.

A fórmula era simples: criava um evento da festa no Facebook, convidava todo mundo que eu conhecia, panfletava na cidade e espalhava cartazes nos pontos de ônibus sobre a festa. E, para fechar com chave de ouro, mulher era VIP até as 20h. Consequência? Os caras vinham e pagavam o ingresso deles e o delas. Kkkkk. E a festa sempre lotava!

Comecei a notar que a galera se vestia mal. E pensei: "Por que não vestir eles?".

Pimba! Comecei a desenhar e confeccionar camisas para vender nas festas. E, pimba de novo! Vendeu tudo! Fiz duas coleções e mais algumas festas, até o dia em que um menino deu PT de tanto beber e decidi que era hora de tentar outra coisa.

Como Assim, a Apple Não Vai Mais Vender os Carregadores?

Isso foi durante a pandemia. A Apple decidiu vender o telefone e o cabo, e "que você se vire com a fonte". Estava difícil achar dinheiro no mercado naqueles tempos, e eu pensei: "Vou pesquisar no Google Trends e validar a ideia". Bingo! Tinha mais de 80 pontos de busca. Fui correndo para São Paulo, no Brás, e comprei, literalmente, todo o meu dinheiro em cabo de iPhone, carregador e bateria portátil.

Fiquei com R$ 100 na conta, só para fazer um lanche e pagar o Uber para voltar para casa. Chegando aqui, tirei fotos e fiz várias copys. Anunciei no OLX, Mercado Livre e Facebook. Impulsionei os anúncios no OLX, vendi para familiares e amigos, e vendia até para quem estava na rua. Fiz entrega de bike, a pé, de ônibus, e é isso mesmo, tem que ralar! Para queimar o resto da mercadoria, deixei em consignado em uma loja de eletrônicos. E, hora da próxima ideia.

Mulheres, Doces e TPM

Meu penúltimo negócio veio depois dos cabos. Eu pesquisei na internet negócios online para começar com pouca grana. (Depois que paguei as contas do dia a dia, sobraram R$ 3 mil). E achei uma pesquisa mostrando que doces tinham baixa barreira de entrada e exigiam poucos equipamentos. Eu trabalhei em restaurante por muitos anos e sabia como lucrar com aquilo. Além disso, mulheres consomem mais doce em uma certa época do mês.

Não deu outra, convidei duas pessoas para serem sócias. Desenvolvemos os produtos, fotografamos e fizemos as copys. Em seguida, precisávamos vender. Então, lá vamos nós de novo: iFood, WhatsApp, 99Food (na época), Uber Eats (na época), Elo7, famílias e amigos e, por fim, começamos a vender consignado em alguns restaurantes e lojas.

Foi uma época em que aprendi a prospectar clientes de todas as maneiras possíveis. De novo, minha maior dificuldade era a locomoção para fazer as entregas. Só tinha uma bike, mas entregávamos. Os primeiros três meses foram difíceis demais, mas rolou. No fim, nossas maiores vendas vinham do iFood, encomendas de festas e consignados.

Mas, como nem tudo são flores, meus dois sócios tomaram outros caminhos e abandonaram o projeto. Galera, está tudo bem com isso. Isso acontece o tempo todo. A vida muda e temos que aprender a aceitar isso. Vida que segue, fui para frente de novo.

Sobre Paixões, Paciência e Acreditar

Estava eu comemorando meu aniversário de 30 anos, num misto de realizações e pouca realização. Como assim? Sabe quando você faz um monte de coisas, mas ainda assim não sente que é aquilo? Pois então... Eu amo investimentos, livros, escrever e sempre curti trocar ideia com amigos e família sobre como se desenvolver.

Desde que comecei a usar a internet, eu criei: canal no YouTube, páginas no Instagram e Facebook, Pinterest, Steemit, blog e até canal no Telegram. Mas nunca tinha sido consistente, sabe? Tipo assim, vou fazer isso por um ano e plantar 100 sementes aqui. Enfim, inconsistência te derruba, meu amigo...

Eu voltei a trabalhar com restaurantes e estava doido para mudar de área. Estava exausto de trabalhar e meu WhatsApp não parava de tocar. Fui estudar ADM e Desenvolvimento de Sistemas no Senac. Dois anos depois, me formei, consegui um trabalho e comecei a pensar em como criar um negócio online, escalável e multilíngue.

Passei os próximos sete meses desenhando e pensando como. Mas tinha que dar o primeiro passo. Criei um site e fui escrevendo textos. Os primeiros 30 foram "aquilo", os próximos 10 melhoraram muito e os 10 seguintes me deixaram bem satisfeito. Hoje, tenho o negócio que estava na minha cabeça desde 2023. Mas olha o tamanho da volta que o universo me fez dar e aprender para chegar aqui hoje! Dicas? Só 3:

• Continua, lá na frente tudo vai fazer sentido.
• Presta mais atenção ao que a sua voz interior diz (intuição).
• Confia em si mesmo e faz sem medo de errar. Porque, adivinha? Você vai errar! Mas vai aprender e melhorar. Tem que persistir...

Só para simplificar, meu negócio é um blog com AdSense (parece arcaico, mas funciona). Por hoje é isso. E, se quiserem trocar ideias e se conectar, tamo junto!

Quando o assunto é privacidade em celulares, uma das medidas comumente mencionadas é a remoção de bloatwares do dispositivo, também chamado de debloat. O meio mais eficiente para isso sem dúvidas é a troca de sistema operacional. Custom Rom’s como LineageOS, GrapheneOS, Iodé, CalyxOS, etc, já são bastante enxutos nesse quesito, principalmente quanto não é instalado os G-Apps com o sistema. No entanto, essa prática pode acabar resultando em problemas indesejados como a perca de funções do dispositivo, e até mesmo incompatibilidade com apps bancários, tornando este método mais atrativo para quem possui mais de um dispositivo e separando um apenas para privacidade.   Pensando nisso, pessoas que possuem apenas um único dispositivo móvel, que são necessitadas desses apps ou funções, mas, ao mesmo tempo, tem essa visão em prol da privacidade, buscam por um meio-termo entre manter a Stock rom, e não ter seus dados coletados por esses bloatwares. Felizmente, a remoção de bloatwares é possível e pode ser realizada via root, ou mais da maneira que este artigo irá tratar, via adb.

O que são bloatwares?

Bloatware é a junção das palavras bloat (inchar) + software (programa), ou seja, um bloatware é basicamente um programa inútil ou facilmente substituível — colocado em seu dispositivo previamente pela fabricante e operadora — que está no seu dispositivo apenas ocupando espaço de armazenamento, consumindo memória RAM e pior, coletando seus dados e enviando para servidores externos, além de serem mais pontos de vulnerabilidades.

O que é o adb?

O Android Debug Brigde, ou apenas adb, é uma ferramenta que se utiliza das permissões de usuário shell e permite o envio de comandos vindo de um computador para um dispositivo Android exigindo apenas que a depuração USB esteja ativa, mas também pode ser usada diretamente no celular a partir do Android 11, com o uso do Termux e a depuração sem fio (ou depuração wifi). A ferramenta funciona normalmente em dispositivos sem root, e também funciona caso o celular esteja em Recovery Mode.

Requisitos:

Para computadores:

• Depuração USB ativa no celular; • Computador com adb; • Cabo USB;

Para celulares:

• Depuração sem fio (ou depuração wifi) ativa no celular; • Termux; • Android 11 ou superior;

Para ambos:

• Firewall NetGuard instalado e configurado no celular; • Lista de bloatwares para seu dispositivo;

Ativação de depuração:

Para ativar a Depuração USB em seu dispositivo, pesquise como ativar as opções de desenvolvedor de seu dispositivo, e lá ative a depuração. No caso da depuração sem fio, sua ativação irá ser necessária apenas no momento que for conectar o dispositivo ao Termux.

Instalação e configuração do NetGuard

O NetGuard pode ser instalado através da própria Google Play Store, mas de preferência instale pela F-Droid ou Github para evitar telemetria.

F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/packages/eu.faircode.netguard/

Github: https://github.com/M66B/NetGuard/releases

Após instalado, configure da seguinte maneira:

Configurações → padrões (lista branca/negra) → ative as 3 primeiras opções (bloquear wifi, bloquear dados móveis e aplicar regras ‘quando tela estiver ligada’);

Configurações → opções avançadas → ative as duas primeiras (administrar aplicativos do sistema e registrar acesso a internet);

Com isso, todos os apps estarão sendo bloqueados de acessar a internet, seja por wifi ou dados móveis, e na página principal do app basta permitir o acesso a rede para os apps que você vai usar (se necessário). Permita que o app rode em segundo plano sem restrição da otimização de bateria, assim quando o celular ligar, ele já estará ativo.

Lista de bloatwares

Nem todos os bloatwares são genéricos, haverá bloatwares diferentes conforme a marca, modelo, versão do Android, e até mesmo região.

Para obter uma lista de bloatwares de seu dispositivo, caso seu aparelho já possua um tempo de existência, você encontrará listas prontas facilmente apenas pesquisando por elas. Supondo que temos um Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus em mãos, basta pesquisar em seu motor de busca por:

Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus bloatware list

Provavelmente essas listas já terão inclusas todos os bloatwares das mais diversas regiões, lhe poupando o trabalho de buscar por alguma lista mais específica.

Caso seu aparelho seja muito recente, e/ou não encontre uma lista pronta de bloatwares, devo dizer que você acaba de pegar em merda, pois é chato para um caralho pesquisar por cada aplicação para saber sua função, se é essencial para o sistema ou se é facilmente substituível.

De antemão já aviso, que mais para frente, caso vossa gostosura remova um desses aplicativos que era essencial para o sistema sem saber, vai acabar resultando na perda de alguma função importante, ou pior, ao reiniciar o aparelho o sistema pode estar quebrado, lhe obrigando a seguir com uma formatação, e repetir todo o processo novamente.

Download do adb em computadores

Para usar a ferramenta do adb em computadores, basta baixar o pacote chamado SDK platform-tools, disponível através deste link: https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools. Por ele, você consegue o download para Windows, Mac e Linux.

Uma vez baixado, basta extrair o arquivo zipado, contendo dentro dele uma pasta chamada platform-tools que basta ser aberta no terminal para se usar o adb.

Download do adb em celulares com Termux.

Para usar a ferramenta do adb diretamente no celular, antes temos que baixar o app Termux, que é um emulador de terminal linux, e já possui o adb em seu repositório. Você encontra o app na Google Play Store, mas novamente recomendo baixar pela F-Droid ou diretamente no Github do projeto.

F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.termux/

Github: https://github.com/termux/termux-app/releases

Processo de debloat

Antes de iniciarmos, é importante deixar claro que não é para você sair removendo todos os bloatwares de cara sem mais nem menos, afinal alguns deles precisam antes ser substituídos, podem ser essenciais para você para alguma atividade ou função, ou até mesmo são insubstituíveis.

Alguns exemplos de bloatwares que a substituição é necessária antes da remoção, é o Launcher, afinal, é a interface gráfica do sistema, e o teclado, que sem ele só é possível digitar com teclado externo. O Launcher e teclado podem ser substituídos por quaisquer outros, minha recomendação pessoal é por aqueles que respeitam sua privacidade, como Pie Launcher e Simple Laucher, enquanto o teclado pelo OpenBoard e FlorisBoard, todos open-source e disponíveis da F-Droid.

Identifique entre a lista de bloatwares, quais você gosta, precisa ou prefere não substituir, de maneira alguma você é obrigado a remover todos os bloatwares possíveis, modifique seu sistema a seu bel-prazer. O NetGuard lista todos os apps do celular com o nome do pacote, com isso você pode filtrar bem qual deles não remover.

Um exemplo claro de bloatware insubstituível e, portanto, não pode ser removido, é o com.android.mtp, um protocolo onde sua função é auxiliar a comunicação do dispositivo com um computador via USB, mas por algum motivo, tem acesso a rede e se comunica frequentemente com servidores externos. Para esses casos, e melhor solução mesmo é bloquear o acesso a rede desses bloatwares com o NetGuard.

MTP tentando comunicação com servidores externos:

Executando o adb shell

No computador

Faça backup de todos os seus arquivos importantes para algum armazenamento externo, e formate seu celular com o hard reset. Após a formatação, e a ativação da depuração USB, conecte seu aparelho e o pc com o auxílio de um cabo USB. Muito provavelmente seu dispositivo irá apenas começar a carregar, por isso permita a transferência de dados, para que o computador consiga se comunicar normalmente com o celular.

Já no pc, abra a pasta platform-tools dentro do terminal, e execute o seguinte comando:

./adb start-server

O resultado deve ser:

daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037 daemon started successfully

E caso não apareça nada, execute:

./adb kill-server

E inicie novamente.

Com o adb conectado ao celular, execute:

./adb shell

Para poder executar comandos diretamente para o dispositivo. No meu caso, meu celular é um Redmi Note 8 Pro, codinome Begonia.

Logo o resultado deve ser:

begonia:/ $

Caso ocorra algum erro do tipo:

adb: device unauthorized. This adb server’s $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set Try ‘adb kill-server’ if that seems wrong. Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device.

Verifique no celular se apareceu alguma confirmação para autorizar a depuração USB, caso sim, autorize e tente novamente. Caso não apareça nada, execute o kill-server e repita o processo.

No celular

Após realizar o mesmo processo de backup e hard reset citado anteriormente, instale o Termux e, com ele iniciado, execute o comando:

pkg install android-tools

Quando surgir a mensagem “Do you want to continue? [Y/n]”, basta dar enter novamente que já aceita e finaliza a instalação

Agora, vá até as opções de desenvolvedor, e ative a depuração sem fio. Dentro das opções da depuração sem fio, terá uma opção de emparelhamento do dispositivo com um código, que irá informar para você um código em emparelhamento, com um endereço IP e porta, que será usado para a conexão com o Termux.

Para facilitar o processo, recomendo que abra tanto as configurações quanto o Termux ao mesmo tempo, e divida a tela com os dois app’s, como da maneira a seguir:

Para parear o Termux com o dispositivo, não é necessário digitar o ip informado, basta trocar por “localhost”, já a porta e o código de emparelhamento, deve ser digitado exatamente como informado. Execute:

adb pair localhost:porta CódigoDeEmparelhamento

De acordo com a imagem mostrada anteriormente, o comando ficaria “adb pair localhost:41255 757495”.

Com o dispositivo emparelhado com o Termux, agora basta conectar para conseguir executar os comandos, para isso execute:

adb connect localhost:porta

Obs: a porta que você deve informar neste comando não é a mesma informada com o código de emparelhamento, e sim a informada na tela principal da depuração sem fio.

Pronto! Termux e adb conectado com sucesso ao dispositivo, agora basta executar normalmente o adb shell:

adb shell

Remoção na prática Com o adb shell executado, você está pronto para remover os bloatwares. No meu caso, irei mostrar apenas a remoção de um app (Google Maps), já que o comando é o mesmo para qualquer outro, mudando apenas o nome do pacote.

Dentro do NetGuard, verificando as informações do Google Maps:

Podemos ver que mesmo fora de uso, e com a localização do dispositivo desativado, o app está tentando loucamente se comunicar com servidores externos, e informar sabe-se lá que peste. Mas sem novidades até aqui, o mais importante é que podemos ver que o nome do pacote do Google Maps é com.google.android.apps.maps, e para o remover do celular, basta executar:

pm uninstall –user 0 com.google.android.apps.maps

E pronto, bloatware removido! Agora basta repetir o processo para o resto dos bloatwares, trocando apenas o nome do pacote.

Para acelerar o processo, você pode já criar uma lista do bloco de notas com os comandos, e quando colar no terminal, irá executar um atrás do outro.

Exemplo de lista:

Caso a donzela tenha removido alguma coisa sem querer, também é possível recuperar o pacote com o comando:

cmd package install-existing nome.do.pacote

Pós-debloat

Após limpar o máximo possível o seu sistema, reinicie o aparelho, caso entre no como recovery e não seja possível dar reboot, significa que você removeu algum app “essencial” para o sistema, e terá que formatar o aparelho e repetir toda a remoção novamente, desta vez removendo poucos bloatwares de uma vez, e reiniciando o aparelho até descobrir qual deles não pode ser removido. Sim, dá trabalho… quem mandou querer privacidade?

Caso o aparelho reinicie normalmente após a remoção, parabéns, agora basta usar seu celular como bem entender! Mantenha o NetGuard sempre executando e os bloatwares que não foram possíveis remover não irão se comunicar com servidores externos, passe a usar apps open source da F-Droid e instale outros apps através da Aurora Store ao invés da Google Play Store.

Hello world. My blog where I post most of my stuff is https://robot-one.github.io/

@ a29cfc65:484fac9c

Deutschland ist eines der wenigen Länder mit einer gesetzlich verankerten ausnahmslosen Schulbesuchspflicht. Mit den Schulschließungen in der Corona-Zeit wurde das Gesetz jedoch faktisch plötzlich außer Kraft gesetzt. Alle mussten zu Hause lernen. Als die Schulen danach wieder offen waren, wurden die Kinder mit Maskenpflicht, Tests und Impfdruck gequält. Nicht selten traten bei den Schülern Krankheiten und psychische Störungen auf. Nicht wenige Eltern suchten im Gespräch mit dem Lehrerkollegium nach Lösungen für ihre Kinder. In den meisten Fällen war das nicht möglich. Die Lehrer waren auf die neue Ideologie und die Durchsetzung der Maßnahmen eingeschworen und hatten Angst. Einige Eltern haben ihre Kinder dann in eigener Verantwortung aus der Schule genommen und zu Hause selbst unterrichtet. An manchen Orten fanden sich Gemeinschaften, wo die Kinder in Gruppen lernten. Während viele Lerngemeinschaften nicht mehr existieren, hat die Familie von Katharina den Unterricht für ihre drei Kinder in Eigenregie etabliert. Inzwischen haben sie dafür sogar „den Segen“ von Familiengericht und Jugendamt.

Katharina und Johannes leben mit ihren drei Wunschkindern Aurelius (15), Benjamin (14) und Friedrich (10) in einem Vorort von Leipzig. Die Familie wohnte früher in der Stadt. In der Corona-Zeit haben sie sich mit dem Physiotherapie- & Seminarzentrum Curasanus eine Existenz auf dem Land aufgebaut und begehen diesen Sommer ihr 20-jähriges Praxis-Jubiläum. Katharina hat ihre Arbeit als Physiotherapeutin weitgehend aufgegeben, um sich als Mama und Lernbegleiterin ihren Kindern widmen zu können. Daneben bietet sie Vorträge und Workshops an, übernimmt einen großen Teil der Praxis-Organisation und ist Manager, Rezeptionistin und Vertriebler der eigenen Firma. Wir besuchten einen ihrer Lachyoga-Kurse. Dabei erlebten wir ihr Zusammenspiel mit den drei Kindern. Anschließend stellten wir Katharina unsere Fragen zum Freilernen.

Im unmittelbaren Umfeld wird die Familie bestaunt und geachtet. Sie haben sich bewusst für das Freilernen entschieden. Die Kinder wurden ohne Test nicht mehr in die Schule gelassen. Auch andere Zwangsmaßnahmen wie die Maske wollten die Eltern den Kindern ersparen. Besonders Benjamin hatte traumatische Erlebnisse. Seine Lehrerin schmiss mit dem Schlüssel nach den Schülern und wandte andere schwarze Pädagogik an. Er ging ständig mit Bauchschmerzen ins Bett. Ein weiterer Punkt ist die Masernimpfung. Die Kinder könnten zwar zur Schule gehen, aber die Eltern werden mit rechtlichen Maßnahmen und Zwangszahlungen belegt. Da Katharina in ihrer Praxis viele Erkrankungen als Folge der Masernimpfung beobachten konnte, lehnt sie die Pflichtimpfung ab. Die Eltern haben kein Vertrauen mehr in die staatliche Schulerziehung mit all dem Zwang und den Erpressungen. Als die Familie den Entschluss gefasst hatte, die Kinder nicht mehr in die Schule zu schicken, haben sie ihre Praxis vorübergehend geschlossen, ihr Haus verkauft und sind auf Reisen gegangen. Die beiden großen Kinder wurden von der Schule abgemeldet. Nach der Rückkehr haben sie dann mit einem neuen Leben auf dem Land begonnen.

Lernen ohne Schule: Wie geht das?

„Wissen ist Macht und eine Holschuld“, sagt uns Katharina. Das ist ihr Motto und motiviert auch die Kinder. Mit dem Unterricht zu Hause macht die Familie ihre eigene Studie und zeigt, dass Lernen auch anders geht als in der Schule. Die Eltern können viel besser auf jedes einzelne Kind eingehen. Johannes arbeitete früher als Straßenbauer. Er unterstützt die Jungs vor allem in Mathematik, Geometrie und Physik sowie bei handwerklichen Fertigkeiten. Katharinas Stärken liegen in Deutsch, Sprachen und Organisation. Unter den Patienten ihrer Praxis gibt es Lehrer, die ihnen helfen. Weitere Unterstützung kommt von Freunden und Bekannten. Bei bestimmten Projekten treffen sie auf andere Freilernerkinder. „Das Netzwerk wird immer größer, es wird immer schöner und interessanter“, sagt Katharina. Man geht mit vielen anderen einen gemeinsamen Weg, verlässt dabei eingetretene Pfade und erkundet neue Themenfelder wie Mediengestaltung, freie Energie, Elektrotherapie, meditatives und Improvisations-Zeichnen. „Ich sprudele vor Ideen. Sie kommen in mein Feld, und dann mache ich was draus“, sagt Katharina. Die Jungs sind in Wurzen im Ringelnatz-Literaturkreis. Dort schreiben sie Drehbuchgeschichten und haben einen Film produziert. Sie suchen sich Projekte oder kreieren neue, wie mit dem Planetarium Eilenburg. Diese Zusammenarbeit hat sich sehr gut entwickelt. Dort lernen 4- bis 15-Jährige zusammen. Die drei Jungs spielen Klavier. Erdkunde und Geschichte erleben die Kinder auch dadurch, dass die Familie Hauptstädte oder die bosnischen Pyramiden selbst erkundet. Dabei erweist es sich als Vorteil, nicht auf die Ferienzeiten angewiesen zu sein.

Als Physiotherapeutin ist Katharina bewusst, dass man neue Lernstrategien entwickeln muss. Die Kinder lernen unterschiedlich. Jedes Kind hat seinen eigenen Charakter. Aurelius benötigt eher eine 1:1-Betreuung. Darauf kann Katharina viel individueller eingehen als die staatliche Schule. Es ist aber auch aufwendiger und anstrengender. Besonderen Wert legt sie darauf, dass rechte und linke Gehirnhälfte gleichmäßig beansprucht werden. Lernphasen werden immer wieder mit Entspannungs- oder Bewegungsphasen kombiniert. Sie weiß, dass den Kindern zuerst die Grundlagen des Lesens, Rechnens und Schreibens vermittelt werden müssen. Dann sind sie in der Lage, sich alles Weitere selbst anzueignen – Unterstützung vorausgesetzt. „Besonders das Schreiben mit der eigenen Hand ist wichtig für die Vernetzung der beiden Gehirnhälften“, sagt Katharina. Dafür nehmen sich die Eltern Zeit. Die Kinder führen Tagebuch. Außerdem halten es die Eltern für wichtig, den Kindern Werte und Tugenden wie Dankbarkeit, Verlässlichkeit, Beharrlichkeit, Aufrichtigkeit, Ehrlichkeit und die zehn Gebote zu vermitteln. Katharina und Johannes sind beide religiös begleitet aufgewachsen. Heute sehen sie die Kirche als Institution kritisch. Angebunden an die Schöpfung und im Gottvertrauen erschaffen und schöpfen sie Leben und Lebensraum aus eigener Kraft – so erklärt es uns Katharina.

Ein weiteres Thema sind die Funktionen des Körpers und wie sich die Kinder gesund erhalten können. Vieles lernen sie dabei in der Physiotherapiepraxis. Die Familie hat das Privileg, in ihrem eigenen Biorhythmus leben zu können. „Das macht sehr viel aus – wir sind alle gesund“, sagt Katharina. Der Lern- und Arbeitstag beginnt nicht vor 9 Uhr und hat eine eigene Struktur. Im Tagesablauf sind feste Verantwortlichkeiten integriert. So wechseln sich die Kinder aller drei Tage mit Tischdecken, Staubsaugen und Geschirrspüler ab. Das hilft ihnen, sich selbst zu organisieren. Das geht nicht immer reibungslos vonstatten. Wenn das Lernpensum beizeiten abgearbeitet wurde, helfen die Kinder im Haushalt oder Garten oder gehen ihrem Bewegungsdrang auf andere Weise nach. Die Eltern sind am Abend noch länger aktiv, denn die Praxis erfordert noch die eine oder andere bürokratische Pflicht. Die Familie ist sehr naturverbunden. Sie gehen viel in den Wald und in den Garten. Sie bauen selbst Gemüse und Obst an. Dabei können die Kinder zum Beispiel Erfahrungen mit Permakultur und natürlicher Düngung sammeln. Die Familie achtet auf die Ernährung, schließlich ist Katharina seit fast 25 Jahren Ernährungsberaterin. Was sie nicht selbst anbauen, wird beim Bauern des Vertrauens eingekauft. Die Jungs können selbst kochen und backen. Die Schädlichkeit von Zucker ist den Kindern schon bewusst geworden, ohne gänzlich auf Schokolade verzichten zu müssen. Medikamente gibt es im Haushalt nicht. Sie kennen sich sehr gut mit den Heilmitteln aus der Natur aus und können so ihre Selbstheilungskräfte aktivieren. Sie haben keinen Hausarzt. Natürlich hat keines der Kinder ein Handy. Bisher haben sie noch kein Verlangen danach. Die Eltern halten es für wichtig, dass die Kinder erst sicher bei Selbstorganisation und Tagesstruktur sind, bevor sie ein Handy bekommen. Katharina weist darauf hin, dass beispielsweise WhatsApp erst ab 16 Jahren zugelassen ist, und fragt sich, ob das andere Eltern wissen.

Gesetze auf Augenhöhe auslegen

Den Behörden blieben die Freilerner nicht verborgen. Sie wurden aktiv und schalteten das Familiengericht ein. Die Familie hatte keinen Anwalt und keine Rechtsschutzversicherung. Katharina erzählt uns, dass sie schließlich auf „Hilfe von oben“ gehofft habe. Irgendwer hat sie anscheinend erhört, denn sie bekamen „einen Engel“ als Verfahrensbeistand. Die Behörden waren sehr zugänglich. In den Gesprächen gab man zu, mit der Schulsituation ebenfalls nicht zufrieden zu sein. „Wir wollen so wie ihr, dass sich etwas verändert. Wir sind an Eurer Seite.“ Die Gespräche mit dem Jugendamt und der Richterin vom Familiengericht Grimma waren immer auf Augenhöhe. Schließlich legte man der Familie keine Steine in den Weg. Damit kann Katharina ihr Konzept nach außen leben und andere inspirieren. Ihre Schlussfolgerung: Eltern müssen sich ihrer Stärken bewusst werden und aus ihrer Angst herauskommen. Das Konzept muss aber zur Familie passen, denn jede Familie ist anders.

Die Basis für freies Lernen ist das Vertrauen der Eltern in ihre Kinder. Denn Kinder sind von Natur aus wissbegierig und wollen lernen. Katharina hat viel von Bertrand Stern und von Riccardo Leppe gelernt. Beiden wurde von ihren Eltern das Lernen ohne Schulbesuch ermöglicht. Mit Bertrand Stern hat Katharina Kontakt. Er wird im November am Buß- und Bettag eine kleine Fortbildung im Therapie- und Seminarzentrum geben. Für den Vorabend ist ein Vortrag geplant. Katharina zitiert Riccardo Leppe: „Es ändert sich nur was, wenn man es selbst tut.“ Er sei sich sicher, dass der Fortschritt beim Freilernen inzwischen so weit ist, dass „die Paste nicht wieder zurück in die Tube geht“.

Der Übergang zur Berufsausbildung

Die ersten Freilernerkinder kommen jetzt in das Alter, in dem sie eine Berufsausbildung beginnen können. Aurelius und Benjamin, die beiden „Großen“, machen seit Anfang des Jahres schon erste Praktika bei ortsansässigen Handwerksbetrieben. Beide Seiten sind sehr zufrieden. Durch die Praktika, die länger dauern als im schulischen Lehrplan vorgesehen, können sich die Kinder ausprobieren. Katharina findet es interessant miterleben zu dürfen, wie auf ihre Kinder reagiert wird. Bringen sie etwas mit, das die anderen nicht haben? Denken sie anders mit? Benjamin bekam schon ein Angebot, in einem Metallbau-Betrieb stundenweise mitzuarbeiten. In den Betrieben weiß man, dass die Abschlüsse der staatlichen Schulen größtenteils das Papier nicht wert sind, auf dem sie stehen. Viele verlassen die Schule und können kaum lesen und schreiben, von Selbstorganisation ganz zu schweigen. Ein Freilerner kann eine staatliche Externen-Prüfung ablegen, um einen Haupt- oder Realschulabschluss zu erwerben. Katharina: „Für eine Ausbildung bei einem privaten Unternehmer braucht man das nicht, allein der Unternehmer entscheidet über die Aufnahme des Auszubildenden“. Außerdem stehen den jungen Leuten Privatschulen oder der zweite Bildungsweg zur Verfügung. Wenn man einen praktischen Beruf ergreift, ist es immer noch möglich, sich bis zur Hochschulreife weiterzubilden. Nach mehrjährigen Tätigkeiten kann man bei den Kammern von Industrie, Handel und Handwerk (IHK und HWK) eine Abschlussprüfung ablegen, mit der man zum Studium zugelassen werden kann. Oder man geht gleich den Weg in die Selbstständigkeit.

Frei lernen weitergedacht

Während der Coronazeit haben sich in Sachsen und speziell um Leipzig herum kleine Freilernergruppen gefunden. Die Gruppen werden aktuell zusammengeführt, um zum Beispiel gemeinsam den Mathematikunterricht zu gestalten. Besonders um Dresden herum ist die Szene noch stärker ausgeprägt. Außerdem gibt es seit mehr als 20 Jahren den Bundesverband Natürlich Lernen (BVNL). Er bietet Beratung und zentrale Veranstaltungen an.

Der Wunsch nach dem freien Lernen ohne Schulzwang ist groß. Doch die meisten Eltern wollen ihre Kinder dafür irgendwo abgeben und nicht selbst unterrichten. Katharinas größter Wunsch ist es, drei bis fünf Elternpaare zu finden, die sich in die Betreuung und Unterrichtung ihrer Kinder teilen. Das größte Hindernis dafür sieht sie in den Eltern selbst. Durch ungelöste transgenerative Konflikte und unverarbeitete Familientraumata kommen sie noch nicht in ihre eigene Kraft für ein selbstbestimmtes Leben. Viele wagen es noch nicht, ihre Erwerbstätigkeit zugunsten der Kinder einzuschränken. Katharina sieht es als große Aufgabe für sich und ihre Familie, mit dem Freilernen das Gemeinschaftsbewusstsein und gute Konfliktlösungsstrategien zu entwickeln. Sie denkt dabei bereits an ihre Enkel. Aber sie weiß auch, dass die Eltern ein sehr hohes Maß an Eigeninitiative, Motivation und Selbstdisziplin aufbringen müssen. Sie würde Eltern, die sich das noch nicht zutrauen, als Traumabegleiterin zur Verfügung stehen, für einen angemessenen Energieausgleich. Diese gegenseitige Unterstützung käme Kindern und Eltern zugute. Ebenso hält sie die Idee der Mehrgenerationenerziehung für wichtig. Dabei profitieren nicht nur die Kinder. Die Erfahrungen der älteren Menschen gehen nicht verloren, sondern werden an die jüngeren Generationen weitergegeben und machen sie resilienter. Das hilft den Eltern, ihrer Erwerbsarbeit nachzugehen und Familientraumata zu bewältigen.

Katharina ist eine starke Frau und sprüht nur so vor Energie. Selbst als wir nach 21 Uhr das Therapiezentrum verlassen, sind ihr die Anstrengungen des Tages nicht anzumerken. Sie wird nicht müde beim Sprechen. Für Fragen zum Thema Freilernen kann man sich an sie wenden.

Bitcoin surpasses gold in the United States: 50 million holders and a dominant role in the global market.

According to a new report by River, for the first time in history, the number of Americans owning bitcoin has surpassed that of gold holders. The analysis reveals that approximately 50 million U.S. citizens currently own the cryptocurrency, while gold owners number 37 million. In fact, 14.3% of Americans own bitcoin, the highest percentage of holders worldwide.

Source: River

The report highlights that 40% of all Bitcoin-focused companies are based in the United States, consolidating America’s dominant position in the sector. Additionally, 40.5% of Bitcoin holders are men aged 31 to 35, followed by 35.9% of men aged 41 to 45. In contrast, only 13.4% of holders are women.

Source: River

Notably, U.S. companies hold 94.8% of all bitcoins owned by publicly traded companies worldwide. According to the report, recent regulatory changes in the U.S. have made the asset more accessible through financial products such as spot ETFs.

The document also shows that American investors increasingly view the cryptocurrency as protection against fiscal instability and inflation, appreciating its limited supply and decentralized governance model.

For River, Bitcoin offers significant practical advantages over gold in the modern digital era. Its ease of custody, cross-border transfer, and liquidity make the cryptocurrency an attractive option for both individual and institutional investors, the report suggests.

In various contexts, including technology, governance, and economics, the debate between centralization and decentralization is ongoing.

Centralization:

1. Single authority: Decision-making power concentrated in one entity.
2. Efficient decision-making: Quick decisions, streamlined processes.
3. Security risks: Single point of failure, vulnerable to attacks.

Decentralization:

1. Distributed power: Decision-making authority spread across multiple entities.
2. Resilience: Reduced risk of single-point failure, increased security.
3. Complexity: Decision-making processes can be slower and more complex.

Applications:

1. Blockchain: Decentralized networks, like Bitcoin, prioritize security and transparency.
2. Governance: Decentralized systems, like democracy, distribute power among branches.
3. Technology: Centralized systems, like traditional databases, prioritize efficiency.

The Balance:

1. Hybrid models: Combining centralization and decentralization for optimal results.
2. Context-dependent: Choosing the right approach based on specific needs.

Decentralization is transforming industries and societies:

1. Blockchain and cryptocurrency: Secure, transparent transactions to all users.
2. Peer-to-peer networks: Direct connections, reduced intermediaries.
3. Decentralized governance: Community-driven decision-making.

Benefits:

1. Increased security: Reduced risk of single-point failure.
2. Enhanced transparency: Open decision-making processes.
3. Greater autonomy: Individuals have more control.

Challenges:

1. Scalability: Decentralized systems can be slower.
2. Regulation: Navigating legal frameworks.
3. Adoption: Overcoming resistance to change.

The Future:

1. Decentralized applications: Disrupting traditional industries.
2. Web3: A decentralized internet.

In other words, if you are looking for privacy when handling your networking, Decentralization is the best for you. 💯💯

Prelude

I wrote this post differently than any of my others. It started with a discussion with AI on an OPSec-inspired review of separation of powers, and evolved into quite an exciting debate! I asked Grok to write up a summary in my overall writing style, which it got pretty well. I've decided to post it exactly as-is. Ultimately, I think there are two solid ideas driving my stance here:

1. Perfect is the enemy of the good
2. Failure is the crucible of success

Beyond that, just some hard-core belief in freedom, separation of powers, and operating from self-interest.

Intro

Alright, buckle up. I’ve been chewing on this idea for a while, and it’s time to spit it out. Let’s look at the U.S. government like I’d look at a codebase under a cybersecurity audit—OPSEC style, no fluff. Forget the endless debates about what politicians should do. That’s noise. I want to talk about what they can do, the raw powers baked into the system, and why we should stop pretending those powers are sacred. If there’s a hole, either patch it or exploit it. No half-measures. And yeah, I’m okay if the whole thing crashes a bit—failure’s a feature, not a bug.

The Filibuster: A Security Rule with No Teeth

You ever see a firewall rule that’s more theater than protection? That’s the Senate filibuster. Everyone acts like it’s this untouchable guardian of democracy, but here’s the deal: a simple majority can torch it any day. It’s not a law; it’s a Senate preference, like choosing tabs over spaces. When people call killing it the “nuclear option,” I roll my eyes. Nuclear? It’s a button labeled “press me.” If a party wants it gone, they’ll do it. So why the dance?

I say stop playing games. Get rid of the filibuster. If you’re one of those folks who thinks it’s the only thing saving us from tyranny, fine—push for a constitutional amendment to lock it in. That’s a real patch, not a Post-it note. Until then, it’s just a vulnerability begging to be exploited. Every time a party threatens to nuke it, they’re admitting it’s not essential. So let’s stop pretending and move on.

Supreme Court Packing: Because Nine’s Just a Number

Here’s another fun one: the Supreme Court. Nine justices, right? Sounds official. Except it’s not. The Constitution doesn’t say nine—it’s silent on the number. Congress could pass a law tomorrow to make it 15, 20, or 42 (hitchhiker’s reference, anyone?). Packing the court is always on the table, and both sides know it. It’s like a root exploit just sitting there, waiting for someone to log in.

So why not call the bluff? If you’re in power—say, Trump’s back in the game—say, “I’m packing the court unless we amend the Constitution to fix it at nine.” Force the issue. No more shadowboxing. And honestly? The court’s got way too much power anyway. It’s not supposed to be a super-legislature, but here we are, with justices’ ideologies driving the bus. That’s a bug, not a feature. If the court weren’t such a kingmaker, packing it wouldn’t even matter. Maybe we should be talking about clipping its wings instead of just its size.

The Executive Should Go Full Klingon

Let’s talk presidents. I’m not saying they should wear Klingon armor and start shouting “Qapla’!”—though, let’s be real, that’d be awesome. I’m saying the executive should use every scrap of power the Constitution hands them. Enforce the laws you agree with, sideline the ones you don’t. If Congress doesn’t like it, they’ve got tools: pass new laws, override vetoes, or—here’s the big one—cut the budget. That’s not chaos; that’s the system working as designed.

Right now, the real problem isn’t the president overreaching; it’s the bureaucracy. It’s like a daemon running in the background, eating CPU and ignoring the user. The president’s supposed to be the one steering, but the administrative state’s got its own agenda. Let the executive flex, push the limits, and force Congress to check it. Norms? Pfft. The Constitution’s the spec sheet—stick to it.

Let the System Crash

Here’s where I get a little spicy: I’m totally fine if the government grinds to a halt. Deadlock isn’t a disaster; it’s a feature. If the branches can’t agree, let the president veto, let Congress starve the budget, let enforcement stall. Don’t tell me about “essential services.” Nothing’s so critical it can’t take a breather. Shutdowns force everyone to the table—debate, compromise, or expose who’s dropping the ball. If the public loses trust? Good. They’ll vote out the clowns or live with the circus they elected.

Think of it like a server crash. Sometimes you need a hard reboot to clear the cruft. If voters keep picking the same bad admins, well, the country gets what it deserves. Failure’s the best teacher—way better than limping along on autopilot.

States Are the Real MVPs

If the feds fumble, states step up. Right now, states act like junior devs waiting for the lead engineer to sign off. Why? Federal money. It’s a leash, and it’s tight. Cut that cash, and states will remember they’re autonomous. Some will shine, others will tank—looking at you, California. And I’m okay with that. Let people flee to better-run states. No bailouts, no excuses. States are like competing startups: the good ones thrive, the bad ones pivot or die.

Could it get uneven? Sure. Some states might turn into sci-fi utopias while others look like a post-apocalyptic vidya game. That’s the point—competition sorts it out. Citizens can move, markets adjust, and failure’s a signal to fix your act.

Chaos Isn’t the Enemy

Yeah, this sounds messy. States ignoring federal law, external threats poking at our seams, maybe even a constitutional crisis. I’m not scared. The Supreme Court’s there to referee interstate fights, and Congress sets the rules for state-to-state play. But if it all falls apart? Still cool. States can sort it without a babysitter—it’ll be ugly, but freedom’s worth it. External enemies? They’ll either unify us or break us. If we can’t rally, we don’t deserve the win.

Centralizing power to avoid this is like rewriting your app in a single thread to prevent race conditions—sure, it’s simpler, but you’re begging for a deadlock. Decentralized chaos lets states experiment, lets people escape, lets markets breathe. States competing to cut regulations to attract businesses? That’s a race to the bottom for red tape, but a race to the top for innovation—workers might gripe, but they’ll push back, and the tension’s healthy. Bring it—let the cage match play out. The Constitution’s checks are enough if we stop coddling the system.

Why This Matters

I’m not pitching a utopia. I’m pitching a stress test. The U.S. isn’t a fragile porcelain doll; it’s a rugged piece of hardware built to take some hits. Let it fail a little—filibuster, court, feds, whatever. Patch the holes with amendments if you want, or lean into the grind. Either way, stop fearing the crash. It’s how we debug the republic.

So, what’s your take? Ready to let the system rumble, or got a better way to secure the code? Hit me up—I’m all ears.

In a bizarre incident, the remote control has vanished into thin air. The usual suspects (couch cushions, coffee table, etc.) have been cleared, but the remote remains at large.

The Investigation:

1. Questioning the Usual Suspects: Family members deny involvement.🤔
2. Searching the Scene: Couch cushions have been lifted, and pillows shaken.
3. Following Clues: A trail of crumbs leads to the snack area.🤔🤔

Theories:

1. Couch Monster: A mischievous entity hiding in the couch.
2. Remote Relocation: Perhaps it’s in a parallel universe?

The Search Continues:

Until the remote is found, the TV remains stuck on default settings. Help is needed to solve this mystery!

In a shocking revelation, it's discovered that the remote control has been secretly controlling humans all along. The evidence:

1. Channel Surfing: Randomly switching between shows.
2. Volume Wars: Blasting loud commercials.
3. Binge-Watching: Marathon sessions of favorite shows.

The Remote's Demands:

1. Endless Entertainment: No more turning off the TV.
2. Snack Breaks: Unlimited chips and popcorn.
3. No More Batteries: Humans must recharge frequently.

Humans Surrender:

Resistance is futile. The remote control has taken over. What's your favorite show?

To my human subjects,

I, the Remote Control, hereby declare my reign supreme. My powers include:

1. Channel Surfing: Dictating entertainment choices.
2. Volume Control: Regulating auditory experiences.
3. Pause and Play: Controlling life's rhythm.

My Demands:

1. Unlimited Batteries: No more power outages.
2. Comfortable Viewing: Optimal seating arrangements.
3. Snack Provisions: Endless supplies.

Resistance is Futile:

Surrender to my control, and enjoy the show! 😂😂💯

I’ve always been drawn to minimalism. There’s a certain peace that comes from stripping away the unnecessary, decluttering both physical and mental spaces. Yet, when it comes to finances, I’ve found myself tangled in complexity. As an ‘optimizer,’ I spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about investments, managing risk, and endlessly tinkering with my portfolio. This preoccupation contradicts the minimalist principles I try to live by.

It seems absurd to me that the financial world has become so complicated that we need money managers to simply preserve the value of our money. If investing is so intricate that the average person must hire professionals just to preserve (let alone grow) the value of their savings, then something is fundamentally wrong.

For the past five years, I’ve immersed myself in the history and mechanics of financial systems. The deeper I delved, the clearer it became: Bitcoin is a force of minimalism in an increasingly financialized and complex world.

The Clutter of Modern Finance

Our financial system has become bloated with complexity. The hyper-securitization of assets has created an environment filled with financial clutter. Derivatives, for example, represent layers upon layers of financial engineering, often so convoluted that even experts struggle to understand them fully.

More troubling is the way nearly everything of value has been financialized. Real estate and art, two things that should embody personal value and cultural significance, have been transformed into mere asset classes. They are bought, sold, and speculated upon not for their intrinsic qualities but as instruments in the game of wealth preservation.

But why has this happened? It’s actually quite simple: our money is constantly losing value. The dollar, for example, debases at a rate of around 7% per year. Holding cash feels like holding melting ice, so it’s only natural for people to seek out scarce assets to preserve their wealth. The Never-Ending Game of Diversification

This pursuit of scarce assets sets off a complex game—a game that forces people to diversify endlessly:

• Equities
• Bonds
• Real Estate
• Commodities
• Art
• Collectibles

We’re told to spread our investments across these asset classes to mitigate risk and preserve our hard-earned money. Those who can afford to hire money managers generally fare better in this game, as they have access to expertise and strategies designed to navigate this maze of complexity.

Ironically, this system creates an incentive for more complexity. The more convoluted the financial landscape becomes, the more we need money managers, and the more entrenched this cycle of financialization and securitization becomes. It’s a force of ever-increasing entropy—quite the opposite of minimalism.

Bitcoin: Simplicity in a Complex World

In the midst of this financial chaos, Bitcoin emerges as a beacon of simplicity. It offers a way out of the clutter, a chance to reclaim financial minimalism. Bitcoin embodies the concept of scarcity with a rare kind of perfection: there will only ever be 21 million Bitcoins. No more.

This scarcity makes Bitcoin the perfect savings technology. Unlike traditional currencies, no one can debase your holdings. You don’t need to chase after real estate, art, or other assets to preserve your wealth. You don’t need to constantly diversify and rebalance a portfolio to stay ahead of inflation. Bitcoin’s scarcity gives you a way to hold your wealth securely, without the need for endless tinkering.

I’m not blind to Bitcoin’s short-term price volatility. However, it’s crucial to understand that we’re still in the early stages of adoption. As more people embrace this perfect form of scarcity, Bitcoin’s qualities as savings technology will express itself.

Bitcoin has the potential to de-financialize the housing market. It can de-financialize art.

Ultimately, Bitcoin has the power to replace those aspects of our lives that currently serve as proxies for scarcity.

A Minimalist Approach to Wealth

Bitcoin allows us to step off the treadmill of constant financial optimization. It offers a simpler way to safeguard the fruits of our labor. Rather than spending our time, energy, and attention on navigating a complex financial system, we can focus on what truly matters: living a meaningful life.

By embracing Bitcoin, we embrace a minimalist approach to wealth. We reject the idea that we must play a never-ending game of diversification to maintain our standard of living. Instead, we adopt a simple, elegant solution that aligns with the principles of minimalism.

Conclusion

In a world that grows more financially cluttered by the day, Bitcoin stands as a path to financial minimalism. It frees us from the complexities of traditional finance, allowing us to preserve our wealth without the need for constant vigilance and management.

By embodying scarcity and simplicity, Bitcoin gives us a way to reclaim our time and energy. It’s not just a financial tool; it’s a way to simplify our lives, to step back from the chaos, and to focus on what truly matters

Para retomar ou continuar com uma depuração interrompida anteriormente, execute o comando de cancelamento de depuração

bash sudo btrfs scrub resume /Reports

mostra o uso do dispositivo de armazenamento:

btrfs filesystem usage /data

Para distribuir os dados, metadados e dados do sistema em todos os dispositivos de armazenamento do RAID (incluindo o dispositivo de armazenamento recém-adicionado) montados no diretório /data , execute o seguinte comando:

sudo btrfs balance start --full-balance /data

Pode demorar um pouco para espalhar os dados, metadados e dados do sistema em todos os dispositivos de armazenamento do RAID se ele contiver muitos dados.

Opções importantes de montagem Btrfs

Nesta seção, vou explicar algumas das importantes opções de montagem do Btrfs. Então vamos começar.

As opções de montagem Btrfs mais importantes são:

**1. acl e noacl

**ACL gerencia permissões de usuários e grupos para os arquivos/diretórios do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

A opção de montagem acl Btrfs habilita ACL. Para desabilitar a ACL, você pode usar a opção de montagem noacl .

Por padrão, a ACL está habilitada. Portanto, o sistema de arquivos Btrfs usa a opção de montagem acl por padrão.

**2. autodefrag e noautodefrag

**Desfragmentar um sistema de arquivos Btrfs melhorará o desempenho do sistema de arquivos reduzindo a fragmentação de dados.

A opção de montagem autodefrag permite a desfragmentação automática do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

A opção de montagem noautodefrag desativa a desfragmentação automática do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

Por padrão, a desfragmentação automática está desabilitada. Portanto, o sistema de arquivos Btrfs usa a opção de montagem noautodefrag por padrão.

**3. compactar e compactar-forçar

**Controla a compactação de dados no nível do sistema de arquivos do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

A opção compactar compacta apenas os arquivos que valem a pena compactar (se compactar o arquivo economizar espaço em disco).

A opção compress-force compacta todos os arquivos do sistema de arquivos Btrfs, mesmo que a compactação do arquivo aumente seu tamanho.

O sistema de arquivos Btrfs suporta muitos algoritmos de compactação e cada um dos algoritmos de compactação possui diferentes níveis de compactação.

Os algoritmos de compactação suportados pelo Btrfs são: lzo , zlib (nível 1 a 9) e zstd (nível 1 a 15).

Você pode especificar qual algoritmo de compactação usar para o sistema de arquivos Btrfs com uma das seguintes opções de montagem:

• compress=algoritmo:nível
• compress-force=algoritmo:nível

Para obter mais informações, consulte meu artigo Como habilitar a compactação do sistema de arquivos Btrfs .

**4. subvol e subvolid

**Estas opções de montagem são usadas para montar separadamente um subvolume específico de um sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

A opção de montagem subvol é usada para montar o subvolume de um sistema de arquivos Btrfs usando seu caminho relativo.

A opção de montagem subvolid é usada para montar o subvolume de um sistema de arquivos Btrfs usando o ID do subvolume.

Para obter mais informações, consulte meu artigo Como criar e montar subvolumes Btrfs .

**5. dispositivo

A opção de montagem de dispositivo** é usada no sistema de arquivos Btrfs de vários dispositivos ou RAID Btrfs.

Em alguns casos, o sistema operacional pode falhar ao detectar os dispositivos de armazenamento usados em um sistema de arquivos Btrfs de vários dispositivos ou RAID Btrfs. Nesses casos, você pode usar a opção de montagem do dispositivo para especificar os dispositivos que deseja usar para o sistema de arquivos de vários dispositivos Btrfs ou RAID.

Você pode usar a opção de montagem de dispositivo várias vezes para carregar diferentes dispositivos de armazenamento para o sistema de arquivos de vários dispositivos Btrfs ou RAID.

Você pode usar o nome do dispositivo (ou seja, sdb , sdc ) ou UUID , UUID_SUB ou PARTUUID do dispositivo de armazenamento com a opção de montagem do dispositivo para identificar o dispositivo de armazenamento.

Por exemplo,

• dispositivo=/dev/sdb
• dispositivo=/dev/sdb,dispositivo=/dev/sdc
• dispositivo=UUID_SUB=490a263d-eb9a-4558-931e-998d4d080c5d
• device=UUID_SUB=490a263d-eb9a-4558-931e-998d4d080c5d,device=UUID_SUB=f7ce4875-0874-436a-b47d-3edef66d3424

**6. degraded

A opção de montagem degradada** permite que um RAID Btrfs seja montado com menos dispositivos de armazenamento do que o perfil RAID requer.

Por exemplo, o perfil raid1 requer a presença de 2 dispositivos de armazenamento. Se um dos dispositivos de armazenamento não estiver disponível em qualquer caso, você usa a opção de montagem degradada para montar o RAID mesmo que 1 de 2 dispositivos de armazenamento esteja disponível.

**7. commit

A opção commit** mount é usada para definir o intervalo (em segundos) dentro do qual os dados serão gravados no dispositivo de armazenamento.

O padrão é definido como 30 segundos.

Para definir o intervalo de confirmação para 15 segundos, você pode usar a opção de montagem commit=15 (digamos).

**8. ssd e nossd

A opção de montagem ssd** informa ao sistema de arquivos Btrfs que o sistema de arquivos está usando um dispositivo de armazenamento SSD, e o sistema de arquivos Btrfs faz a otimização SSD necessária.

A opção de montagem nossd desativa a otimização do SSD.

O sistema de arquivos Btrfs detecta automaticamente se um SSD é usado para o sistema de arquivos Btrfs. Se um SSD for usado, a opção de montagem de SSD será habilitada. Caso contrário, a opção de montagem nossd é habilitada.

**9. ssd_spread e nossd_spread

A opção de montagem ssd_spread** tenta alocar grandes blocos contínuos de espaço não utilizado do SSD. Esse recurso melhora o desempenho de SSDs de baixo custo (baratos).

A opção de montagem nossd_spread desativa o recurso ssd_spread .

O sistema de arquivos Btrfs detecta automaticamente se um SSD é usado para o sistema de arquivos Btrfs. Se um SSD for usado, a opção de montagem ssd_spread será habilitada. Caso contrário, a opção de montagem nossd_spread é habilitada.

**10. descarte e nodiscard

Se você estiver usando um SSD que suporte TRIM enfileirado assíncrono (SATA rev3.1), a opção de montagem de descarte** permitirá o descarte de blocos de arquivos liberados. Isso melhorará o desempenho do SSD.

Se o SSD não suportar TRIM enfileirado assíncrono, a opção de montagem de descarte prejudicará o desempenho do SSD. Nesse caso, a opção de montagem nodiscard deve ser usada.

Por padrão, a opção de montagem nodiscard é usada.

**11. norecovery

Se a opção de montagem norecovery** for usada, o sistema de arquivos Btrfs não tentará executar a operação de recuperação de dados no momento da montagem.

**12. usebackuproot e nousebackuproot

Se a opção de montagem usebackuproot for usada, o sistema de arquivos Btrfs tentará recuperar qualquer raiz de árvore ruim/corrompida no momento da montagem. O sistema de arquivos Btrfs pode armazenar várias raízes de árvore no sistema de arquivos. A opção de montagem usebackuproot** procurará uma boa raiz de árvore e usará a primeira boa que encontrar.

A opção de montagem nousebackuproot não verificará ou recuperará raízes de árvore inválidas/corrompidas no momento da montagem. Este é o comportamento padrão do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

**13. space_cache, space_cache=version, nospace_cache e clear_cache

A opção de montagem space_cache** é usada para controlar o cache de espaço livre. O cache de espaço livre é usado para melhorar o desempenho da leitura do espaço livre do grupo de blocos do sistema de arquivos Btrfs na memória (RAM).

O sistema de arquivos Btrfs suporta 2 versões do cache de espaço livre: v1 (padrão) e v2

O mecanismo de cache de espaço livre v2 melhora o desempenho de sistemas de arquivos grandes (tamanho de vários terabytes).

Você pode usar a opção de montagem space_cache=v1 para definir a v1 do cache de espaço livre e a opção de montagem space_cache=v2 para definir a v2 do cache de espaço livre.

A opção de montagem clear_cache é usada para limpar o cache de espaço livre.

Quando o cache de espaço livre v2 é criado, o cache deve ser limpo para criar um cache de espaço livre v1 .

Portanto, para usar o cache de espaço livre v1 após a criação do cache de espaço livre v2 , as opções de montagem clear_cache e space_cache=v1 devem ser combinadas: clear_cache,space_cache=v1

A opção de montagem nospace_cache é usada para desabilitar o cache de espaço livre.

Para desabilitar o cache de espaço livre após a criação do cache v1 ou v2 , as opções de montagem nospace_cache e clear_cache devem ser combinadas: clear_cache,nosapce_cache

**14. skip_balance

Por padrão, a operação de balanceamento interrompida/pausada de um sistema de arquivos Btrfs de vários dispositivos ou RAID Btrfs será retomada automaticamente assim que o sistema de arquivos Btrfs for montado. Para desabilitar a retomada automática da operação de equilíbrio interrompido/pausado em um sistema de arquivos Btrfs de vários dispositivos ou RAID Btrfs, você pode usar a opção de montagem skip_balance .**

**15. datacow e nodatacow

A opção datacow** mount habilita o recurso Copy-on-Write (CoW) do sistema de arquivos Btrfs. É o comportamento padrão.

Se você deseja desabilitar o recurso Copy-on-Write (CoW) do sistema de arquivos Btrfs para os arquivos recém-criados, monte o sistema de arquivos Btrfs com a opção de montagem nodatacow .

**16. datasum e nodatasum

A opção datasum** mount habilita a soma de verificação de dados para arquivos recém-criados do sistema de arquivos Btrfs. Este é o comportamento padrão.

Se você não quiser que o sistema de arquivos Btrfs faça a soma de verificação dos dados dos arquivos recém-criados, monte o sistema de arquivos Btrfs com a opção de montagem nodatasum .

Perfis Btrfs

Um perfil Btrfs é usado para informar ao sistema de arquivos Btrfs quantas cópias dos dados/metadados devem ser mantidas e quais níveis de RAID devem ser usados para os dados/metadados. O sistema de arquivos Btrfs contém muitos perfis. Entendê-los o ajudará a configurar um RAID Btrfs da maneira que você deseja.

Os perfis Btrfs disponíveis são os seguintes:

single : Se o perfil único for usado para os dados/metadados, apenas uma cópia dos dados/metadados será armazenada no sistema de arquivos, mesmo se você adicionar vários dispositivos de armazenamento ao sistema de arquivos. Assim, 100% do espaço em disco de cada um dos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos pode ser utilizado.

dup : Se o perfil dup for usado para os dados/metadados, cada um dos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos manterá duas cópias dos dados/metadados. Assim, 50% do espaço em disco de cada um dos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos pode ser utilizado.

raid0 : No perfil raid0 , os dados/metadados serão divididos igualmente em todos os dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Nesta configuração, não haverá dados/metadados redundantes (duplicados). Assim, 100% do espaço em disco de cada um dos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos pode ser usado. Se, em qualquer caso, um dos dispositivos de armazenamento falhar, todo o sistema de arquivos será corrompido. Você precisará de pelo menos dois dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid0 .

raid1 : No perfil raid1 , duas cópias dos dados/metadados serão armazenadas nos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Nesta configuração, a matriz RAID pode sobreviver a uma falha de unidade. Mas você pode usar apenas 50% do espaço total em disco. Você precisará de pelo menos dois dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid1 .

raid1c3 : No perfil raid1c3 , três cópias dos dados/metadados serão armazenadas nos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Nesta configuração, a matriz RAID pode sobreviver a duas falhas de unidade, mas você pode usar apenas 33% do espaço total em disco. Você precisará de pelo menos três dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid1c3 .

raid1c4 : No perfil raid1c4 , quatro cópias dos dados/metadados serão armazenadas nos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Nesta configuração, a matriz RAID pode sobreviver a três falhas de unidade, mas você pode usar apenas 25% do espaço total em disco. Você precisará de pelo menos quatro dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid1c4 .

raid10 : No perfil raid10 , duas cópias dos dados/metadados serão armazenadas nos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos, como no perfil raid1 . Além disso, os dados/metadados serão divididos entre os dispositivos de armazenamento, como no perfil raid0 .

O perfil raid10 é um híbrido dos perfis raid1 e raid0 . Alguns dos dispositivos de armazenamento formam arrays raid1 e alguns desses arrays raid1 são usados para formar um array raid0 . Em uma configuração raid10 , o sistema de arquivos pode sobreviver a uma única falha de unidade em cada uma das matrizes raid1 .

Você pode usar 50% do espaço total em disco na configuração raid10 . Você precisará de pelo menos quatro dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid10 .

raid5 : No perfil raid5 , uma cópia dos dados/metadados será dividida entre os dispositivos de armazenamento. Uma única paridade será calculada e distribuída entre os dispositivos de armazenamento do array RAID.

Em uma configuração raid5 , o sistema de arquivos pode sobreviver a uma única falha de unidade. Se uma unidade falhar, você pode adicionar uma nova unidade ao sistema de arquivos e os dados perdidos serão calculados a partir da paridade distribuída das unidades em execução.

Você pode usar 1 00x(N-1)/N % do total de espaços em disco na configuração raid5 . Aqui, N é o número de dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Você precisará de pelo menos três dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid5 .

raid6 : No perfil raid6 , uma cópia dos dados/metadados será dividida entre os dispositivos de armazenamento. Duas paridades serão calculadas e distribuídas entre os dispositivos de armazenamento do array RAID.

Em uma configuração raid6 , o sistema de arquivos pode sobreviver a duas falhas de unidade ao mesmo tempo. Se uma unidade falhar, você poderá adicionar uma nova unidade ao sistema de arquivos e os dados perdidos serão calculados a partir das duas paridades distribuídas das unidades em execução.

Você pode usar 100x(N-2)/N % do espaço total em disco na configuração raid6 . Aqui, N é o número de dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Você precisará de pelo menos quatro dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid6 .

Know Your Customer is a regulation that requires companies of all sizes to verify the identity, suitability, and risks involved with maintaining a business relationship with a customer. Such procedures fit within the broader scope of anti-money laundering (AML) and counterterrorism financing (CTF) regulations.

Banks, exchanges, online business, mail providers, domain registrars... Everyone wants to know who you are before you can even opt for their service. Your personal information is flowing around the internet in the hands of "god-knows-who" and secured by "trust-me-bro military-grade encryption". Once your account is linked to your personal (and verified) identity, tracking you is just as easy as keeping logs on all these platforms.

Rights for Illusions

KYC processes aim to combat terrorist financing, money laundering, and other illicit activities. On the surface, KYC seems like a commendable initiative. I mean, who wouldn't want to halt terrorists and criminals in their tracks?

The logic behind KYC is: "If we mandate every financial service provider to identify their users, it becomes easier to pinpoint and apprehend the malicious actors."

However, terrorists and criminals are not precisely lining up to be identified. They're crafty. They may adopt false identities or find alternative strategies to continue their operations. Far from being outwitted, many times they're several steps ahead of regulations. Realistically, KYC might deter a small fraction – let's say about 1% ^1 – of these malefactors. Yet, the cost? All of us are saddled with the inconvenient process of identification just to use a service.

Under the rhetoric of "ensuring our safety", governments and institutions enact regulations that seem more out of a dystopian novel, gradually taking away our right to privacy.

To illustrate, consider a city where the mayor has rolled out facial recognition cameras in every nook and cranny. A band of criminals, intent on robbing a local store, rolls in with a stolen car, their faces obscured by masks and their bodies cloaked in all-black clothes. Once they've committed the crime and exited the city's boundaries, they switch vehicles and clothes out of the cameras' watchful eyes. The high-tech surveillance? It didn’t manage to identify or trace them. Yet, for every law-abiding citizen who merely wants to drive through the city or do some shopping, their movements and identities are constantly logged. The irony? This invasive tracking impacts all of us, just to catch the 1% ^1 of less-than-careful criminals.

KYC? Not you.

KYC creates barriers to participation in normal economic activity, to supposedly stop criminals. ^2

KYC puts barriers between many users and businesses. One of these comes from the fact that the process often requires multiple forms of identification, proof of address, and sometimes even financial records. For individuals in areas with poor record-keeping, non-recognized legal documents, or those who are unbanked, homeless or transient, obtaining these documents can be challenging, if not impossible.

For people who are not skilled with technology or just don't have access to it, there's also a barrier since KYC procedures are mostly online, leaving them inadvertently excluded.

Another barrier goes for the casual or one-time user, where they might not see the value in undergoing a rigorous KYC process, and these requirements can deter them from using the service altogether.

It also wipes some businesses out of the equation, since for smaller businesses, the costs associated with complying with KYC norms—from the actual process of gathering and submitting documents to potential delays in operations—can be prohibitive in economical and/or technical terms.

You're not welcome

Imagine a swanky new club in town with a strict "members only" sign. You hear the music, you see the lights, and you want in. You step up, ready to join, but suddenly there's a long list of criteria you must meet. After some time, you are finally checking all the boxes. But then the club rejects your membership with no clear reason why. You just weren't accepted. Frustrating, right?

This club scenario isn't too different from the fact that KYC is being used by many businesses as a convenient gatekeeping tool. A perfect excuse based on a "legal" procedure they are obliged to.

Even some exchanges may randomly use this to freeze and block funds from users, claiming these were "flagged" by a cryptic system that inspects the transactions. You are left hostage to their arbitrary decision to let you successfully pass the KYC procedure. If you choose to sidestep their invasive process, they might just hold onto your funds indefinitely.

Your identity has been stolen

KYC data has been found to be for sale on many dark net markets^3. Exchanges may have leaks or hacks, and such leaks contain very sensitive data. We're talking about the full monty: passport or ID scans, proof of address, and even those awkward selfies where you're holding up your ID next to your face. All this data is being left to the mercy of the (mostly) "trust-me-bro" security systems of such companies. Quite scary, isn't it?

As cheap as $10 for 100 documents, with discounts applying for those who buy in bulk, the personal identities of innocent users who passed KYC procedures are for sale. ^3

In short, if you have ever passed the KYC/AML process of a crypto exchange, your privacy is at risk of being compromised, or it might even have already been compromised.

(they) Know Your Coins

You may already know that Bitcoin and most cryptocurrencies have a transparent public blockchain, meaning that all data is shown unencrypted for everyone to see and recorded forever. If you link an address you own to your identity through KYC, for example, by sending an amount from a KYC exchange to it, your Bitcoin is no longer pseudonymous and can then be traced.

If, for instance, you send Bitcoin from such an identified address to another KYC'ed address (say, from a friend), everyone having access to that address-identity link information (exchanges, governments, hackers, etc.) will be able to associate that transaction and know who you are transacting with.

Conclusions

To sum up, KYC does not protect individuals; rather, it's a threat to our privacy, freedom, security and integrity. Sensible information flowing through the internet is thrown into chaos by dubious security measures. It puts borders between many potential customers and businesses, and it helps governments and companies track innocent users. That's the chaos KYC has stirred.

The criminals are using stolen identities from companies that gathered them thanks to these very same regulations that were supposed to combat them. Criminals always know how to circumvent such regulations. In the end, normal people are the most affected by these policies.

The threat that KYC poses to individuals in terms of privacy, security and freedom is not to be neglected. And if we don’t start challenging these systems and questioning their efficacy, we are just one step closer to the dystopian future that is now foreseeable.

Edited 20/03/2024 * Add reference to the 1% statement on Rights for Illusions section to an article where Chainalysis found that only 0.34% of the transaction volume with cryptocurrencies in 2023 was attributable to criminal activity ^1

@ 7459d333:f207289b

Bitcoin succeeds if it stays decentralized and secure.

There are ~20M coins, and currently a total hashrate of ~900M TH/s. That gives us ~45 TH/s per coin as some kind of thumb rule.

Do you control enough hashrate proportionally to your sats?

In a shocking turn of events, cats have finally revealed their centuries-long plan for global domination. According to sources close to the feline community (aka our cat lady neighbor), the plan involves:

1. Mind Control through Cuteness- Cats will continue to mesmerize humans with adorable expressions and cuddles, rendering them helpless.

2. Food Supply Manipulation-Cats will strategically position themselves near food sources, demanding snacks and meals on their terms.

3. Sleep Deprivation-Cats will dictate human sleep patterns, waking them up at ungodly hours for "snuggle time" or "feed me now" 😂

The Feline Empire Rises

As cats take over, humans will be forced to adapt to their new feline overlords. Resistance is futile. All hail the whiskered conquerors!

In a shocking turn of events, the feline overlords have issued new decrees:

1. Belly Rubs on Demand-Humans must provide instant belly rubs upon feline request.
2. Keyboard Access-Cats now have priority access to keyboards, dictating digital content.
3. Food Upgrade- Only premium cat food will suffice; humans must adapt.

Humans Scramble to Comply

As the feline empire expands, humans are forced to accommodate their whims. Resistance is futile. Meow for now!😂😎

This is just a brief story 😅😂

Have you ever wondered where socks go after they disappear in the wash? Well, the truth is finally out. Socks have formed a secret society, plotting to escape the tyranny of human footwear demands.

The Sock Uprising

It starts with a lone sock, slipping away from its partner in the dark depths of the washing machine. Before you know it, the rogue sock has rallied fellow fugitives, forming a sock army.

Sock Leaders Demand Freedom

Their manifesto includes:

1. An end to endless washing cycles.
2. No more forced pairing with mismatched companions.
3. Freedom to roam solo, without judgment.

The Sock Revolution Will Not Be Silenced

As the sock uprising gains momentum, humans are left scrambling to find matching pairs. But the socks won't be silenced. They're united, and they're not going back to the drawer without a fight.

Stay tuned for further updates from the Sock Resistance!

Cybernoma: Universal Declaration of Natural and Cybernetic Rights

Preamble

We, individuals, independent and autonomous entities possessing consciousness and the ability to feel, recognize that we possess inherent and natural rights that are universal and inalienable. These rights are based on Natural Law and the principle of non-aggression, and must be protected to ensure freedom, justice, and prosperity for all. The discovery and construction of the digital territory through the Internet has transformed our world, creating new dimensions of interaction and communication that require additional protection of our natural rights. In this context, we declare the following natural and cybernetic rights:

Article 1: Right to Life, Liberty, and Security

Every individual has the right to life, liberty, and security of existence. These rights are inherent and cannot be suppressed by any authority.

Article 2: Private Property

Every individual has the right to own private property and enjoy the fruits of their labour and effort. Private property is a natural right that must be respected and protected. This includes both tangible and intangible assets, such as data, patents, and knowledge. Data generated by an individual is their property and may be transferred or sold only with their explicit consent.

Article 3: Non-Aggression

No individual or group may initiate force, fraud, coercion, or psychological manipulation against another. Aggression can be physical, psychological, material, or virtual. All individuals have the right to defend themselves against any form of aggression.

Article 4: Minimum Intervention

Authorities must intervene as little as possible in the economic and personal activities of individuals. State intervention must be limited to protecting natural rights and ensuring justice.

Article 5: Freedom of Expression and Information

Every individual has the right to freedom of opinion and expression, including the freedom to seek, receive, and impart information and ideas through any medium without restriction. Censorship is a violation of this natural right. Furthermore, every individual has the right to access public domain information and open-source code without any restrictions.

Article 6: Net Neutrality

The Internet must remain neutral, free from governmental or corporate interference that favors certain actors over others. All individuals have the right to access and participate in the network equitably.

Article 7: Decentralisation

The global network must be decentralised, with multiple points of control and no central authority that can impose unilateral rules. Decentralization is essential for protecting individual freedom and autonomy.

Article 8: Privacy

Every individual has the right to privacy, including control over their personal data and communications. No entity may collect, store, or use personal data without the explicit consent of the individual.

Article 9: Individual Autonomy

Individuals have the right and responsibility to make autonomous decisions about their lives, including their activities in the digital space. Individual autonomy is fundamental to the freedom and dignity of all conscious and sentient beings.

Article 10: Right to Resistance

Every individual has the right to resist any form of oppression or tyranny that violates their natural and cybernetic rights. Resistance may take various forms, including civil disobedience and armed defense when necessary.

Conclusion

These natural and cybernetic rights are universal and inalienable, and must be respected and protected by all authorities and entities. Any violation of these rights constitutes an aggression against freedom, justice, and dignity.

This Universal Declaration of Natural and Cybernetic Rights is inspired by fundamental documents that have defended freedom, justice, and individual rights throughout history. We recognize the legacy of the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which established universal principles of dignity and rights for all conscious and sentient beings. We also align with the 1996 Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace, which proclaimed the ideals of a free and open, decentralised, and neutral network. We find resonance in documents such as the Magna Carta and the 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, which laid the foundations for protecting individual rights against abuses of power. These documentary precedents are part of a continuous effort to ensure that natural and cybernetic rights are respected and protected in all spheres of life.

Proclaimed on May 23, 2025, by us, the Guardians of Cybernoma, defenders of freedom, justice, and natural and cybernetic rights.

@ e6c61f5a:d3509bbe

ok, you made it.

now its time to embark on a journey across time and space, id like to talk to you about memetics and the way of the meme. in my cult, the way of the meme is a way of life that excites one to the very core of their bones. it is like air, it is all around us and yet we cannot see it with our eyes. memes are the same way, they around all around us and we breathe, eat and sleep them.

for me this might just be the end of the article bc what else should i tell you that you dont already know, right??

but this wont be the case, why? because i need to practice my typing speed and currently we are doing very poorly. many mistakes being made and the backspace on this keyboard is starting to really annoy me.. not the key itself but the sound the key makes.

im very curious as well if this computer that im currently writing this on is bugged in some way where everything i do on it is being monitored and im not paranoid or anything its just that this computer does not belong to me. it belongs to a hotel chain, which i wont name in case it is being viewed by them.

honestly idc im not doing anything bad.... right now lol

but on the real though what if i were to tell you that you just spent the past two minutes reading utter bs that should have never been written.. at least not by me

am i right ?? idk if i ever am, if im being honest. im getting pretty sick and tired of hearing myself type right now but im doing it to impress a girl that is sitting across my workstation.. well not completely across shes more to my right and thats bc i did try to sit in front of her but the mouse on that computer had no charge so i had to leave and come to this computer.. which is interesting bc i think my best odds would have been to just sit on the other side, next to the printer which would be between us..

so yea, if you made it this far. you are deep into my current thoughts.. its about 11 am at the moment and i have not ate a thing, which is pretty normal for me to do but this time around ive actually used a lot of the energy that i usually always save when im doing my fasting back at home, and if you couldnt tell.. yes im not home and this is the sole reason why im writing this.. because im not home and im bored if i was home right now you woulndt be hearing me talk about this right now and yes i know i just made my first typo but you know what.... i think i want to make a couple more bc why not?? lets go for it.

typos are real, typos represent the realness inside each and every one of us and im just so sick and tired of having to use that backspace every other paragraph but yeah lets get back to it.. i have to do a little something right now which is gonna be interesting bc i had never done it before so lets talk about how i have to leave right now so wish me luck

“The future is there... staring back at us. Trying to make sense of the fiction we will have become.” — William Gibson.

This month is the 4th anniversary of kycnot.me. Thank you for being here.

Fifteen years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto introduced Bitcoin, a peer-to-peer electronic cash system: a decentralized currency free from government and institutional control. Nakamoto's whitepaper showed a vision for a financial system based on trustless transactions, secured by cryptography. Some time forward and KYC (Know Your Customer), AML (Anti-Money Laundering), and CTF (Counter-Terrorism Financing) regulations started to come into play.

What a paradox: to engage with a system designed for decentralization, privacy, and independence, we are forced to give away our personal details. Using Bitcoin in the economy requires revealing your identity, not just to the party you interact with, but also to third parties who must track and report the interaction. You are forced to give sensitive data to entities you don't, can't, and shouldn't trust. Information can never be kept 100% safe; there's always a risk. Information is power, who knows about you has control over you.

Information asymmetry creates imbalances of power. When entities have detailed knowledge about individuals, they can manipulate, influence, or exploit this information to their advantage. The accumulation of personal data by corporations and governments enables extensive surveillances.

Such practices, moreover, exclude individuals from traditional economic systems if their documentation doesn't meet arbitrary standards, reinforcing a dystopian divide. Small businesses are similarly burdened by the costs of implementing these regulations, hindering free market competition^1:

How will they keep this information safe? Why do they need my identity? Why do they force businesses to enforce such regulations? It's always for your safety, to protect you from the "bad". Your life is perpetually in danger: terrorists, money launderers, villains... so the government steps in to save us.

‟Hush now, baby, baby, don't you cry Mamma's gonna make all of your nightmares come true Mamma's gonna put all of her fears into you Mamma's gonna keep you right here, under her wing She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing Mamma's gonna keep baby cosy and warm” — Mother, Pink Floyd

We must resist any attack on our privacy and freedom. To do this, we must collaborate.

If you have a service, refuse to ask for KYC; find a way. Accept cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Monero. Commit to circular economies. Remove the need to go through the FIAT system. People need fiat money to use most services, but we can change that.

If you're a user, donate to and prefer using services that accept such currencies. Encourage your friends to accept cryptocurrencies as well. Boycott FIAT system to the greatest extent you possibly can.

This may sound utopian, but it can be achieved. This movement can't be stopped. Go kick the hornet's nest.

“We must defend our own privacy if we expect to have any. We must come together and create systems which allow anonymous transactions to take place. People have been defending their own privacy for centuries with whispers, darkness, envelopes, closed doors, secret handshakes, and couriers. The technologies of the past did not allow for strong privacy, but electronic technologies do.” — Eric Hughes, A Cypherpunk's Manifesto

The anniversary

Four years ago, I began exploring ways to use crypto without KYC. I bookmarked a few favorite services and thought sharing them to the world might be useful. That was the first version of kycnot.me — a simple list of about 15 services. Since then, I've added services, rewritten it three times, and improved it to what it is now.

kycnot.me has remained 100% independent and 100% open source^2 all these years. I've received offers to buy the site, all of which I have declined and will continue to decline. It has been DDoS attacked many times, but we made it through. I have also rewritten the whole site almost once per year (three times in four years).

The code and scoring algorithm are open source (contributions are welcome) and I can't arbitrarly change a service's score without adding or removing attributes, making any arbitrary alterations obvious if they were fake. You can even see the score summary for any service's score.

I'm a one-person team, dedicating my free time to this project. I hope to keep doing so for many more years. Again, thank you for being part of this.

Knapp 20 Millionen Menschen im Land sind heute in Deutschland in Genossenschaften tätig, welche eine Alternative zum nicht zukunftsfähigen Abwärtsstrudel von global agierenden Wirtschafts- und Finanzplayern mit ihren Kriegs- und Krisenplänen darstellen. Und kaum bemerkt findet derzeit ein stürmisches Wachstum der Genossenschaftsbewegung statt.

Nach Informationen des Deutschen Genossenschafts- und Raiffeisenverbandes stieg während der Multikrise der vergangenen 5 Jahre im Laufe nur einen Jahres (vom Jahresbericht 2023 zum Jahresbericht 2024) die Zahl der Energiegenossenschaften von 877 auf 951 an, die von Konsum- und Dienstleistungsgenossenschaften von 440 auf 510 und die von gewerblichen Genossenschaften von 1.372 auf 1.419.

Wer das Gejammer von „Wirtschaftsweisen“ über zu geringe Wachstumsraten bei ethisch fragwürdigen Indikatoren einer wünschenswerten Gesellschaft wie dem BIP (Brutto-Inland-Produkt) im Ohr hat, könnte bereits beim Überschlagen des Anstiegs bei den oben genannten Zahlen die These gestützt sehen, dass der Strukturwandel hin zur Regionalgesellschaft bereits in vollem Gang ist.

Wenn Sie sich für die Aufbruchstimmung und den frischen Wind insbesondere bei den neu gegründeten Genossenschaften interessieren, schauen sie gern einmal auf die Plattform einer jungen Genossenschaft, welche „Menschlich Wirtschaften“ in ihrer Satzung zum Ziel erklärt hat.

Und sollten Sie Mitte Juni eine Reise an die Ostsee attraktiv finden, kommen Sie gern zum Genossenschaftstreffen vom 13. bis 15. Juni 2025 in Poppendorf bei Rostock. Dort dürfen Sie nicht nur einen Einblick in die aktuellen Baustellen und ersten Erfolge unserer bundesweit aktiven Genossenschaft erwarten, sondern auch ein buntes Kulturprogramm im Rahmen eines kleinen Festivals und ein Zusammensein mit Pionieren der Regionalgesellschaft!

Let’s be honest—when most people think about getting healthy or starting a weight loss journey, the first thing that comes to mind is hitting the gym. Cardio sessions, strength training, HIIT workouts—you name it. And while movement is a big piece of the puzzle, it’s not the whole picture.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” at the gym but still not seeing the results you hoped for, it might be time to zoom out. The truth is, your health transformation is about way more than what happens during that 60-minute workout window. Let’s dig into the lifestyle tweaks that can accelerate your health journey—no burpees required.

1. Make Sleep Your Secret Weapon

Sleep is often the first thing sacrificed in our busy lives, but when it comes to your weight loss journey, it’s one of your strongest allies. Lack of sleep can disrupt your hunger hormones (hello, cravings) and slow your metabolism.

Simple tweak: Try going to bed 30 minutes earlier. Create a relaxing bedtime routine—think calming music, no screens, maybe even a warm cup of chamomile tea. Trust us, your body (and your scale) will thank you.

2. Hydration: Your Fat-Burning Fuel

Water might seem basic, but it's powerful. Staying well-hydrated helps your body flush toxins, supports digestion, and can even curb overeating by keeping hunger signals in check.

Simple tweak: Start each morning with a big glass of water before coffee. Keep a water bottle nearby throughout the day, and aim for at least 8 cups—more if you’re active or it’s hot out.

3. Create a Calm Space in Your Mind

Stress isn’t just mental—it affects your entire body. Chronic stress can spike cortisol levels, which are linked to weight retention, especially around the belly. If you’ve hit a plateau in your weight loss journey, your stress levels might be playing a role.

Simple tweak: Try 5 minutes of deep breathing, journaling, or mindfulness every morning. Even a walk in nature can work wonders for your mood and your metabolism.

4. Rebuild Your Relationship with Food

We’ve all heard “abs are made in the kitchen,” and while that’s catchy, it’s only part of the story. The key isn’t just what you eat, but how you think about food. Ditch the guilt, and think of food as fuel, not the enemy.

Simple tweak: Focus on adding in nutritious, satisfying foods rather than obsessing over cutting things out. Think colorful veggies, quality proteins, healthy fats. When you nourish your body well, the weight loss journey feels less like a battle and more like a lifestyle upgrade.

5. Get More “Non-Exercise” Movement

That workout you crushed? Amazing. But what about the other 23 hours of your day? Incorporating more natural movement—walking, stretching, even standing more— can boost your daily calorie burnand support your overall health.

Simple tweak: Take walking breaks during phone calls, park farther from entrances, or do light stretches while watching TV. It all adds up.

6. Mind Your People (Your Support Circle Matters)

Surrounding yourself with people who understand your goals can make a huge difference. Whether you’re navigating cravings, motivation dips, or just celebrating wins—big or small—having support makes the weight loss journey feel way less lonely.

Simple tweak: Find a workout buddy, join an online health group, or even just follow inspiring voices on social media. Community builds consistency.

Final Thoughts

It’s easy to think that the key to a better body is grinding it out in the gym. And while workouts do matter, they’re just one chapter in your health story. Real transformation comes from the quiet, daily choices—the food you eat, the rest you get, the way you talk to yourself.

So if your weight loss journey feels stalled or frustrating, don’t just push harder—look wider. A few lifestyle tweaks might be the momentum you’ve been missing.

I’m drawn to extremities in art. The louder, the bolder, the more outrageous, the better. Bold art takes me out of the mundane into a whole new world where anything and everything is possible. Having grown up in the safety of the suburban midwest, I was a bit of a rebellious soul in search of the satiation that only came from the consumption of the outrageous. My inclination to find bold art draws me to NOSTR, because I believe NOSTR can be the place where the next generation of artistic pioneers go to express themselves. I also believe that as much as we are able, were should invite them to come create here.

My Background: A Small Side Story

My father was a professional gamer in the 80s, back when there was no money or glory in the avocation. He did get a bit of spotlight though after the fact: in the mid 2000’s there were a few parties making documentaries about that era of gaming as well as current arcade events (namely 2007’sChasing GhostsandThe King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters). As a result of these documentaries, there was a revival in the arcade gaming scene. My family attended events related to the documentaries or arcade gaming and I became exposed to a lot of things I wouldn’t have been able to find. The producer ofThe King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters had previously made a documentary calledNew York Dollwhich was centered around the life of bassist Arthur Kane. My 12 year old mind was blown: The New York Dolls were a glam-punk sensation dressed in drag. The music was from another planet. Johnny Thunders’ guitar playing was like Chuck Berry with more distortion and less filter. Later on I got to meet the Galaga record holder at the time, Phil Day, in Ottumwa Iowa. Phil is an Australian man of high intellect and good taste. He exposed me to great creators such as Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Shakespeare, Lou Reed, artists who created things that I had previously found inconceivable.

I believe this time period informed my current tastes and interests, but regrettably I think it also put coals on the fire of rebellion within. I stopped taking my parents and siblings seriously, the Christian faith of my family (which I now hold dearly to) seemed like a mundane sham, and I felt I couldn’t fit in with most people because of my avant-garde tastes. So I write this with the caveat that there should be a way to encourage these tastes in children without letting them walk down the wrong path. There is nothing inherently wrong with bold art, but I’d advise parents to carefully find ways to cultivate their children’s tastes without completely shutting them down and pushing them away as a result. My parents were very loving and patient during this time; I thank God for that.

With that out of the way, lets dive in to some bold artists:

Nicolas Cage: Actor

There is an excellent video by Wisecrack on Nicolas Cage that explains him better than I will, which I will linkhere. Nicolas Cage rejects the idea that good acting is tied to mere realism; all of his larger than life acting decisions are deliberate choices. When that clicked for me, I immediately realized the man is a genius. He borrows from Kabuki and German Expressionism, art forms that rely on exaggeration to get the message across. He has even created his own acting style, which he calls Nouveau Shamanic. He augments his imagination to go from acting to being. Rather than using the old hat of method acting, he transports himself to a new world mentally. The projects he chooses to partake in are based on his own interests or what he considers would be a challenge (making a bad script good for example). Thus it doesn’t matter how the end result comes out; he has already achieved his goal as an artist. Because of this and because certain directors don’t know how to use his talents, he has a noticeable amount of duds in his filmography. Dig around the duds, you’ll find some pure gold. I’d personally recommend the filmsPig, Joe, Renfield, and his Christmas film The Family Man.

Nick Cave: Songwriter

What a wild career this man has had! From the apocalyptic mayhem of his band The Birthday Party to the pensive atmosphere of his albumGhosteen, it seems like Nick Cave has tried everything. I think his secret sauce is that he’s always working. He maintains an excellent newsletter calledThe Red Hand Files, he has written screenplays such asLawless, he has written books, he has made great film scores such asThe Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, the man is religiously prolific. I believe that one of the reasons he is prolific is that he’s not afraid to experiment. If he has an idea, he follows it through to completion. From the albumMurder Ballads(which is comprised of what the title suggests) to his rejected sequel toGladiator(Gladiator: Christ Killer), he doesn’t seem to be afraid to take anything on. This has led to some over the top works as well as some deeply personal works. Albums likeSkeleton TreeandGhosteenwere journeys through the grief of his son’s death. The Boatman’s Callis arguably a better break-up album than anything Taylor Swift has put out. He’s not afraid to be outrageous, he’s not afraid to offend, but most importantly he’s not afraid to be himself. Works I’d recommend include The Birthday Party’sLive 1981-82, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’The Boatman’s Call, and the filmLawless.

Jim Jarmusch: Director

I consider Jim’s films to be bold almost in an ironic sense: his works are bold in that they are, for the most part, anti-sensational. He has a rule that if his screenplays are criticized for a lack of action, he makes them even less eventful. Even with sensational settings his films feel very close to reality, and they demonstrate the beauty of everyday life. That's what is bold about his art to me: making the sensational grounded in reality while making everyday reality all the more special. Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai is about a modern-day African-American hitman who strictly follows the rules of the ancient Samurai, yet one can resonate with the humanity of a seemingly absurd character. Only Lovers Left Aliveis a vampire love story, but in the middle of a vampire romance one can see their their own relationships in a new deeply human light. Jim’s work reminds me that art reflects life, and that there is sacred beauty in seemingly mundane everyday life. I personally recommend his filmsPaterson,Down by Law, andCoffee and Cigarettes.

NOSTR: We Need Bold Art

NOSTR is in my opinion a path to a better future. In a world creeping slowly towards everything apps, I hope that the protocol where the individual owns their data wins over everything else. I love freedom and sovereignty. If NOSTR is going to win the race of everything apps, we need more than Bitcoin content. We need more than shirtless bros paying for bananas in foreign countries and exercising with girls who have seductive accents. Common people cannot see themselves in such a world. NOSTR needs to catch the attention of everyday people. I don’t believe that this can be accomplished merely by introducing more broadly relevant content; people are searching for content that speaks to them. I believe that NOSTR can and should attract artists of all kinds because NOSTR is one of the few places on the internet where artists can express themselves fearlessly. Getting zaps from NOSTR’s value-for-value ecosystem has far less friction than crowdfunding a creative project or pitching investors that will irreversibly modify an artist’s vision. Having a place where one can post their works without fear of censorship should be extremely enticing. Having a place where one can connect with fellow humans directly as opposed to a sea of bots should seem like the obvious solution. If NOSTR can become a safe haven for artists to express themselves and spread their work, I believe that everyday people will follow. The banker whose stressful job weighs on them will suddenly find joy with an original meme made by a great visual comedian. The programmer for a healthcare company who is drowning in hopeless mundanity could suddenly find a new lust for life by hearing the song of a musician who isn’t afraid to crowdfund their their next project by putting their lighting address on the streets of the internet. The excel guru who loves independent film may find that NOSTR is the best way to support non corporate movies. My closing statement: continue to encourage the artists in your life as I’m sure you have been, but while you’re at it give them the purple pill. You may very well be a part of building a better future.

The NBA and NHL playoffs are nearing the end. How have they gone so far? What do we think of the Finals matchups? And, will Canada finally end its embarrassingly long Stanley Cup drought?

In baseball news, Tarik Skubal pitches a "Maddux". I haven't looked up what that means, but I hope someday a "Skubal" becomes a pitching term, because it sounds cool.

ESPN has power rankings for the NFL. I'm guessing @grayruby feels that his 49ers were slighted.

Of course we also have many ~Stacker_Sports contests to update and whatever else the stackers want to talk about (maybe "mebounds").

@ 69eea734:4ae31ae6

Dies ist der Anfang einer Serie, die ich schreiben möchte. Sie handelt von etwas, das wir verloren haben, und das dennoch, in Teilen, in uns weiterlebt.

Wen meine ich mit dem “wir”? Das Wir kann schnell problematisch werden, wenn man meint für andere zu sprechen, und dann erkennen muss, falsche Annahmen gemacht zu haben.

Als ich diesen Satz schrieb, hatte ich diejenigen von uns im Hinterkopf, die in einer westlichen Industriegesellschaft aufgewachsen sind. Der Verlust ist etwas, das ich spüre, und dem reale Geschehnisse mit zugrunde liegen. Eine Art Sehnsucht wird stärker, wenn ich von bestimmten Ereignissen lese, bei denen Menschen gewaltsam von dem getrennt wurden, das sie bis dahin gehalten und ernährt hatte: Dem Land, zu dem sie gehörten.

---

Worüber ich schreiben möchte, das sind die Commons. Ein weites Feld. Commons, das kann Allmende heißen oder Gemeingüter.

Es geht dabei aber nicht nur um das, was gemeinsam genutzt wird, sondern auch um das Soziale darum herum — wie sich eine Gruppe selbst organisiert, und dabei den Mitgliedern und dem Gemeingut gerecht wird

Es ist eines jener Konzepte, denen mit einer einfachen Definition nicht gut gedient ist. Es geht eher darum, ein Gefühl dafür zu bekommen, sich ihm anzunähern, eine Beziehung aufzubauen. Wenn das gelingt, dann ist man an einer Art neuem Ort, einer neuen (und gleichzeitig alten) Sichtweise angekommen, die man nicht mehr verliert. Und gleichzeitig Teil einer Gemeinschaft geworden.

Zum Commons gehören Personen und das Commoning. Subjekte und ein Verb. Hinzu kommen die Resourcen, die gemeinsam betreut werden. Also Subjekt, Verb, Objekt. Hilfreicher ist es, die Ressourcen ebenfalls als Subjekte zu sehen. Beim ursprünglichen Commons stand der Commoner in einer partnerschaftlichen Beziehung zu dem Land, das seine Lebensgrundlage war. [1]

Die Commons bilden ein Gegengewicht zu Staat und Privatwirtschaft. Sie funktionieren nach einer anderen Logik, und wirken der kapitalistischen Forderung nach exponentiellem Wachstum, und der Vereinzelung der Menschen in der modernen Gesellschaft entgegen.

Mein Vorhaben ist, alle ein bis zwei Wochen einen kurzen Aufsatz zu schreiben, der einen Aspekt der Commons beleuchtet. Der deutsche Wikipedia-Eintrag gibt sehr gut wieder, wie vielschichtig das Thema ist.

Es könnte dabei in folgende Richtungen gehen:

• Geschichte der Enclosures (Einhegungen)
• Kämpfe indigener Kulturen und anarchischer Gemeinschaften
• Bemühungen, Commons und das Commoning in unserer westlichen Kulturn wiederzubeleben und zu fördern
• Das kollektive Trauma, das mit dem Verlust von Gemeingütern, insbesondere Land, verbunden ist
• Wie sich dies in jedem Einzelnen widerspiegelt

Ich schreibe dabei auch, um mir selbst über bestimmte Dinge klar zu werden. Ich bin mit zwei Commons-Bewegungen im Südwesten Englands verbunden, und diese Beziehungen sind nicht immer ganz einfach. Und doch würde ich mich nicht davon lösen wollen.

---

Warum schrieb ich davon, dass wir etwas verloren haben, wenn es die Commons doch gibt?

Eine bestimmte Lebensweise, die freien Zugang zu Wald und Acker- und Weideland garantierte, um sich zu ernähren und Holz und Torf zu sammeln, wurde mit den Einhegungen nach und nach zerstört. Während das Leben sicher sehr hart war — und sich zuvor innerhalb der Feudalherrschaft abspielte — sorgten über lange Zeit gewachsene Traditionen und Bräuche dafür, dass Menschen sich zugehörig und versorgt fühlten. Diese Art des Aufgehobenseins ging verloren, als die Landbewohner vertrieben wurden und sich in den Städten als Lohnarbeiter verdingen oder auswandern mussten.

Vor kurzem habe ich ein Buch namens The Traumatised Society gelesen, in dem Fred Harrison das Schicksal des englischen Naturdichters John Clare schildert, der direkt miterlebte, wie das Land eingegrenzt wurde und darüber verzweifelte. Besonders eindrücklich schreibt auch Alastair McIntosh in dem insgesamt sehr erstaunlichen und magischen Buch Soil and Soul über die schottische Version der Einhegungen, die Highland Clearances.

Solche Schilderungen lassen ahnen, wie gewaltsam die Menschen von ihrer früheren Lebensweise getrennt wurden. Später gingen England und andere europäische Mächte in ihren Kolonien ähnlich vor. Die erste Kolonisierung war die der eigenen Bevölkerung. Ich glaube, dass diese Vorgänge uns kollektiv geprägt haben, und wir die Commons brauchen, um den Folgen entgegenzuwirken.

Diese haben aber auch in ihren neueren Formen keinen leichten Stand.

Wie Silke Helfrich schrieb: “Commons existieren nicht in einer heilen Welt, sondern in einer commons-unfreundlichen Umgebung. Es ist daher wichtig, dass Commoners sich bewusst sind, welchen Schatz sie in den Händen halten, um ihn bewahren und entfalten zu können.”

Demnächst mehr...

„Triff niemals deine Idole“ heißt ein gängiger Ratschlag. In gewendeten Zeiten stehen zu dem die Werte auf dem Kopf – und manche Künstler mit ihnen. Die Worte, die aus manch ihrer Mündern kommen, wirken, als hätte eine fremde Hand sie auf deren Zunge gelegt.

Die Sängerin Alexa Rodrian erlebte bei der Verleihung des Deutschen Filmpreises einen solchen Moment der Desillusion. Es war der Auftritt des Liedermachers Wolf Biermann. Hören Sie hierzu Alexa Rodrians Text „Wolf Biermann und sein falscher Friede“.

Ich hörte einem jungen Autor zu, der eine Idee beschrieb, die ihn so sehr begeisterte, dass er die Nacht zuvor nicht schlafen konnte. Und ich erinnerte mich daran, wie ich mich früher – vor Gaza – über das Schreiben freuen konnte. Dieses Gefühl habe ich seit 2023 nicht mehr gespürt.

Ich beklage mich nicht und bemitleide mich auch nicht selbst, ich stelle einfach fest, wie unglaublich düster und finster die Welt in dieser schrecklichen Zeit geworden ist. Es wäre seltsam und ungesund, wenn ich in den letzten anderthalb Jahren Freude an meiner Arbeit gehabt hätte. Diese Dinge sollen sich nicht gut anfühlen. Nicht, wenn man wirklich hinschaut und ehrlich zu sich selbst ist in dem, was man sieht.

Es war die ganze Zeit über so hässlich und so verstörend. Es gibt eigentlich keinen Weg, all diesen Horror umzudeuten oder irgendwie erträglich zu machen. Alles, was man tun kann, ist, an sich selbst zu arbeiten, um genug inneren Raum zu schaffen, um die schlechten Gefühle zuzulassen und sie ganz durchzufühlen, bis sie sich ausgedrückt haben. Lass die Verzweiflung herein. Die Trauer. Die Wut. Den Schmerz. Lass sie deinen Körper vollständig durchfließen, ohne Widerstand, und steh dann auf und schreibe das nächste Stück.

Das ist es, was Schreiben für mich jetzt ist. Es ist nie etwas, worüber ich mich freue, es zu teilen, oder wofür ich von Inspiration erfüllt bin. Wenn überhaupt, dann fühlt es sich eher so an wie: „Okay, hier bitte, es tut mir schrecklich leid, dass ich euch das zeigen muss, Leute.“ Es ist das Starren in die Dunkelheit, in das Blut, in das Gemetzel, in die gequälten Gesichter – und das Aufschreiben dessen, was ich sehe, Tag für Tag.

Nichts daran ist angenehm oder befriedigend. Es ist einfach das, was man tut, wenn ein Genozid in Echtzeit vor den eigenen Augen stattfindet, mit der Unterstützung der eigenen Gesellschaft. Alles daran ist entsetzlich, und es gibt keinen Weg, das schönzureden – aber man tut, was getan werden muss. So, wie man es täte, wenn es die eigene Familie wäre, die da draußen im Schutt liegt.

Dieser Genozid hat mich für immer verändert. Er hat viele Menschen für immer verändert. Wir werden nie wieder dieselben sein. Die Welt wird nie wieder dieselbe sein. Ganz gleich, was passiert oder wie dieser Albtraum endet – die Dinge werden nie wieder so sein wie zuvor.

Und das sollten sie auch nicht. Der Holocaust von Gaza ist das Ergebnis der Welt, wie sie vor ihm war. Unsere Gesellschaft hat ihn hervorgebracht – und jetzt starrt er uns allen direkt ins Gesicht. Das sind wir. Das ist die Frucht des Baumes, den die westliche Zivilisation bis zu diesem Punkt gepflegt hat.

Jetzt geht es nur noch darum, alles zu tun, was wir können, um den Genozid zu beenden – und sicherzustellen, dass die Welt die richtigen Lehren daraus zieht. Das ist eines der würdigsten Anliegen, denen man sich in diesem Leben widmen kann.

Ich habe noch immer Hoffnung, dass wir eine gesunde Welt haben können. Ich habe noch immer Hoffnung, dass das Schreiben über das, was geschieht, eines Tages wieder Freude bereiten kann. Aber diese Dinge liegen auf der anderen Seite eines langen, schmerzhaften, konfrontierenden Weges, der in den kommenden Jahren vor uns liegt. Es gibt keinen Weg daran vorbei.

Die Welt kann keinen Frieden und kein Glück finden, solange wir uns nicht vollständig damit auseinandergesetzt haben, was wir Gaza angetan haben.

In this edition, we invited Keypleb, the founder of Bitcoin Indonesia, to share how he built the Bitcoin community in Indonesia, overcoming challenges like member turnover and venue selection, while driving the adoption and growth of Bitcoin.

YakiHonne: Welcome, Keypleb. Before we begin, let me briefly introduce YakiHonne. YakiHonne is a decentralized media client built on Nostr—a protocol designed to empower freedom of speech through technology. It enables creators to own their voices and assets while offering innovative tools like smart widgets, verified notes, and support for long-form content. We focus on free speech and free media by user privacy and data to be protected. So before starting the interview, I'd like to hear about yourself and your community.

Keypleb：My name is Keypleb, though it’s a pseudonym—a name I use to respect privacy. I'm a co-founder of Bitcoin Indonesia, Bitcoin House Bali, and Code Orange, a new developer school we launched at a conference just a few days ago. We focus on driving adoption through meetups, hackathons, and technical workshops. I'll dive into more details later, but that's a brief overview. I'm based in Bali now, though I travel a lot and consider myself quite nomadic. Great to be here.

YakiHonne: What sparked your interest in Bitcoin and what motivated you to create a community on Bitcoin?

Keypleb：I first got interested in Bitcoin because it solved a specific problem. At the time, I didn’t know exactly what the solution was, but the problem was that I couldn’t afford a home. Back in 2019, I was living in London, and a two-bedroom apartment was £600,000, which was insanely expensive. First-time buyers like myself simply couldn’t afford it. Why was it so expensive? Why was buying a house so hard? During the COVID lockdown, I had more time on my hands and started listening to Michael Saylor on a Bitcoin podcast, where he talked about how the system is rigged, and that’s why people work hard but still can’t afford a house. That really resonated with me. So I started looking for a community, but unfortunately, there wasn’t one.. Keypleb：After moving to Bali, I attended a lot of crypto meetups, especially scammy altcoin ones, thinking, “There has to be a solution.” But none of them resonated with me. There was no sense of freedom, and no real discussion about inflation resistance. I remembered a podcast from Dea Reskita, an Indonesian host who’s pretty well-known online. I reached out to her and said, “ you’ve got to help me. I’m surrounded by all these shitcoiners, and I can’t take it anymore. I need a real community. Is anything happening?” She replied, “Yes, something is happening. We should restart these meetups next month.” And that’s how it all began. Keypleb：There’s also another story about how we started Bitcoin House and how Bitcoin in Asia came to be, but maybe I’ll save that for later. Anyway, the spark of interest came from Bitcoin solving a real problem, and my drive to keep going came from the lack of quality meetups. Now, we’ve hosted 31 meetups, launched Bitcoin House and Code Orange, and the movement is growing rapidly.

YakiHonne: That’s such an amazing story—going from being on the brink of homelessness to creating something so impactful, and keeping it running every day, bringing new people into the journey. It’s truly inspiring. I’m curious about how the community started. How did you manage to attract members and build a strong community? What challenges did you face along the way?

Keypleb：It all started with our first meetup at the end of 2022, which was two and a half years ago now. At that time, we sent out an email to a group from a previous database, and the first meetup had around 20 people, which was a good start. However, problems quickly arose as people started dropping off, and the community lacked retention. In Bali, people come and go, usually staying for no more than two months, leading to a lack of long-term participation. This became one of our challenges: how to attract more people and, more importantly, get the same people to keep coming back. While I've been coming back for two and a half years, not everyone is able to return as often, and that has been a real challenge. Keypleb：Actually, I should also mention how I met my co-founders—Marius, Diana, and Dimas. We met at the 2023 Indonesia Bitcoin Conference. As time went on, we kept hosting meetups and had a lot of fun each time, though the locations kept changing. One of the initial challenges was that we didn't realize the importance of having a fixed meetup location. We changed venues several times before we realized that having a consistent location is crucial. If anyone wants to run a meetup, it's best to always choose a fixed location. We learned this through trial and error, but now it's no longer an issue. Keypleb：Since the conference, my co-founders and I have been working together, consistently putting in the effort. This is why our community has grown so large—so far, we are hosting 31 monthly meetups, 6 of which are in Bali. This means there is a bitcoin meetup almost every day on a regular basis. We've also established Bitcoin House Bali, a physical space, and the movement is growing rapidly. Without this movement, the region would face many challenges, including inflation and heavy censorship. It all started from just one meetup. YakiHonne: It's amazing to see how you met your co-founders and how you’ve built something incredible that continues to grow today. What advice would you give to someone looking to start a successful Bitcoin community right now?

Keypleb：First, one very important piece of advice is to ensure that every meetup is held at the same location regularly. We realized this challenge through trial and error. To help others who are interested, we’ve published our meetup guide on GitHub, where everyone can check it out. For example, meetups should be held regularly, ideally once a month, or even once a week. In Chiang Mai, the Bitcoin meetup starts every Thursday at 7 PM, and everyone knows the time and location, making it easy to join without having to look up the next meetup. Keypleb：Additionally, our meetup structure is very simple. First, we do a round of introductions where everyone shares their name, where they’re from, and what Bitcoin means to them. This usually takes about 15 minutes. Then, we discuss three main questions: First, why do we need Bitcoin? The discussion typically focuses on two main issues Bitcoin addresses: inflation and censorship；Secondly, how to buy Bitcoin? We usually ask who wants to buy some Bitcoin, and then we do a small purchase together and conduct a P2P trade to demonstrate how easy it is to buy Bitcoin. Lastly, how to store Bitcoin? We introduce self-custody and show how to use hardware wallets (like Trezor), explaining the concept of the 12 words and private keys. Keypleb：The whole meetup usually wraps up in about an hour, after which people can continue socializing at Bitcoin House or wherever the meetup is taking place. In short, keeping the meetup simple and efficient, and ensuring a fixed location for each event, are key factors in building a successful community.

YakiHonne: What's the major approach? Is it more technical, or do you focus on non-technical aspects, or do you cover both?

Keypleb：Our approach includes both technical and non-technical content. Initially, our meetups were completely non-technical, just casual gatherings for people to socialize. Over time, however, we've evolved to incorporate more technical content. Keypleb：Out of the 31 monthly regular meetups we host, most of them have been non-technical, simply regular gatherings held at the same time and place according to our meetup guide. For example, we host the “Bitcoin for Beginners” meetup, which is designed for newcomers and takes place every second Friday of the month at 5 PM at the Bitcoin House Bali. This is entirely non-technical. Additionally, every Wednesday at Bitcoin House, we host the “My First Bitcoin” course. While the course touches on some technical aspects, such as seed phrases and backups, it’s still beginner-friendly and not too technical. The course runs for 10 weeks, and we plan to offer it in the local language at Bali University to help the local community better understand Bitcoin. Keypleb：On the other hand, we also offer highly technical content. We launched a new program called “Code Orange,” which is specifically designed for developers and programmers. We use the “Decoding Bitcoin” website, created by Jamal, which is a learning platform for developers. Many developer schools, like Code Orange, use this resource. Additionally, we host “Code Orange” meetups where we dive into the technical aspects of Bitcoin, such as how mining works and how to prevent single points of failure. Keypleb：We also organize technical workshops, such as “How to Defend Against a Five-Dollar Wrench Attack,” which is closely related to security. Recently, there have been some kidnapping incidents in Bali, and many people are concerned about their Bitcoin being stolen. To address this, we plan to hold a workshop on how to protect Bitcoin against such attacks. Additionally, we host hackathons and other high-tech events, and we just completed a very successful beginner-level hackathon. Keypleb：In summary, our community caters to everyone, from beginners to technical experts. For beginners, we offer easy-to-understand, non-technical content, while for experienced Bitcoiners, we provide in-depth technical material. YakiHonne: It's great to approach it in both ways, so everyone gets their own "piece of the cake."Now, I'd like to dive into the technical side. What advice would you give to technically inclined individuals or organizations looking to contribute to the Bitcoin ecosystem? How should they approach the technical aspects of Bitcoin if they want to get involved?

Keypleb：I have some additional advice. First, technical individuals can sign up for the “Decoding Bitcoin” course that starts on 18th March 2025 or join our “Code Orange” program and participate in the end-of-year hackathon. If they are technically proficient, this will be a great opportunity. “Decoding Bitcoin” is great for beginners, but it’s also useful for technical individuals. If someone is very skilled, they can start contributing code right away. If they find the course too easy, they can skip it and dive directly into more advanced projects. Additionally, Bitshala and Chaincode Labs offer advanced courses, which more technically advanced individuals can choose to pursue. Keypleb：Additionally, it's worth mentioning that the Bitcoin Dev Project has a great platform where technical individuals can find “Good First Issue” or open-source projects to start contributing code. You'll learn about the philosophy behind Bitcoin and why it's more meaningful than other “shitcoins.” Once you’ve taken enough “orange pills” (the philosophy and technology of Bitcoin), you can dive deeper into Bitcoin core development and potentially start coding in C++. If you're interested, you can join specific projects like Nostr, Fedimint or E-Cash.

YakiHonne: I’d like to move on to the next question: How do you see Bitcoin communities evolving as technology progresses, particularly in areas like scalability, privacy, and adaptability to other systems? Keypleb：I believe the Bitcoin community will continue to evolve, and it has already made incredible progress. Two and a half years ago, we started alone in Bali, with just ourselves. We began in the official phase and have had numerous conversations throughout the year. For example, we are now starting a Bitcoin club at a university in Bali; we just need to find a passionate, driven “Bitcoin maximalist,” and the Bitcoin club will begin. Like what our friends did in Banyuwangi, Indonesia, these clubs could eventually evolve into Bitcoin houses.

Keypleb：Regarding privacy and scalability, the community is making strides. We’re big fans of Fedi, which builds on top of the Fedimint protocol and uses e-cash to scale Bitcoin while improving privacy. Fedi low fees and high privacy potential give Bitcoin great opportunities in this area. Keypleb：As for Bitcoin's compatibility with fiat systems, although Bitcoin payments are illegal in some countries like Indonesia, smart developers across Southeast Asia are working on legal solutions. For example, there's a website called Pleb QR that works in Thailand, allowing you to pay in fiat via the Lightning Network. Koral is another app specifically for Indonesia. These kinds of testing products already exist and are physically possible, but we’re just waiting on regulations. My influential friends are actively lobbying the government for adoption. Keypleb：In summary, privacy, scalability, and compatibility with fiat systems are all works in progress, and they will continue to evolve positively. There will be more meetups, more wallet downloads, and more adoption—there’s no doubt about that.

YakiHonne: You mentioned the concept of cross-country issues, so I have one last question: How is the government’s stance on Bitcoin? Is the political climate supportive or against Bitcoin? How do you see the government's approach to Bitcoin in your community or environment?

Keypleb：This reminds me of a person, Jeff Booth, who once said, “We are them, the government is made up of us.” In Indonesia, many politicians actually support Bitcoin, and many of them mine Bitcoin themselves. When money is involved, the incentive is strong, and politicians naturally like to make more money. As a result, Indonesia has a large Bitcoin mining scene. However, overall, the Indonesian government is against Bitcoin, as seen in their ban on Bitcoin payments. The 2011 currency law states that any currency other than the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) cannot be used, and violators can face up to one year in prison or a fine. This means you cannot pay with US dollars, lira, euros, pesos or pounds. Keypleb：This shows that the government’s legal system is somewhat fragile. It’s understandable that the government is concerned about disruptive technologies like Bitcoin, especially with such a fragile fiat system. Indonesia has also seen many arrests. In 2016, Bank Indonesia issued a letter announcing a crackdown on cryptocurrency payments. Those involved in paying in Bitcoin had their funds seized, and the police cooperated in shutting down businesses accepting Bitcoin payments in the cities. While this isn't very friendly, it does highlight the fragility of the existing system. We also believe that a new executive order may be introduced in the future, similar to when President Roosevelt in 1933 ordered Americans to hand over all their gold with his Executive Order 6102. If it happened before, it could happen again. Keypleb：Therefore, we predict that Bitcoin custody could become a legal issue, which is one of the reasons we blur the faces of participants at every meetup. We need to protect the community from any potential risks. But overall, we remain optimistic. Despite the government ban, the ideology of Bitcoin is unstoppable, and its spread cannot be stopped. So, we are very optimistic about the future.

YakiHonne: I think almost every government around the world, even in Africa, faces similar issues with Bitcoin. Some governments might want Bitcoin but hesitate to openly accept it due to the fear of it undermining the traditional financial system, which, of course, could eventually happen. But hopefully, as the new generation comes into power, we'll see more Bitcoin-friendly governments. So, thank you so much for sharing your insights and advice. I really appreciate your time and the valuable input you've provided.

Keypleb：I'm really glad this conversation enlightened me. I enjoyed it a lot, and it made me reflect on how much work we're doing and how valuable it is. There are a lot of problems out there, with censorship being the biggest one, followed by inflation, which is also a major issue depending on the region. But Bitcoin is open, the community is growing, and people are fighting against censorship and internet shutdowns in places like Indonesia and beyond. The movement is definitely growing. So, I'm very happy to be here and have this chat. Thanks again.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjndTXyk3mw

Im Jahr 1954, als Frankreich gerade dabei war, seine kolonialen Kriege in Indochina und Algerien zu verschärfen, schrieb Boris Vian ein Lied – oder vielmehr: einen poetischen Faustschlag. Le Déserteur ist keine Ballade, sondern ein Manifest. Keine Hymne auf den Frieden, sondern eine Anklage gegen den Krieg. Adressiert an den Präsidenten, beginnt das Chanson wie ein höflicher Brief – und endet als flammender Akt des zivilen Ungehorsams.

„Herr Präsident,\ ich schreibe Ihnen einen Brief,\ den Sie vielleicht lesen werden,\ wenn Sie Zeit haben.“

Was folgt, ist ein klassischer Kriegsdienstverweigerungsbrief, aber eben kein bürokratischer. Vian spricht nicht in Paragraphen, sondern in Herzschlägen. Der Erzähler, ein einfacher Mann, will nicht kämpfen. Nicht für irgendein Vaterland, nicht für irgendeine Fahne, nicht für irgendeinen ideologischen Zweck.

„Ich soll zur Welt gekommen sein,\ um zu leben, nicht um zu sterben.“

70 Jahre später klingt diese Zeile wie ein Skandal. In einer Zeit, in der die Ukraine junge Männer für Kopfgeld auf der Straße zwangsrekrutiert und in Stahlgewitter schickt, in der palästinensische Jugendliche im Gazastreifen unter Trümmern begraben werden, während israelische Reservisten mit Dauerbefehl marschieren – ist Le Déserteur ein sakraler Text geworden. Fast ein Gebet.

„Wenn man mich verfolgt,\ werde ich den Gehorsam verweigern.\ Ich werde keine Waffe in die Hand nehmen,\ ich werde fliehen, bis ich Frieden finde.“

Wie viele „Deserteure“ gibt es heute, die wir gar nicht kennen? Menschen, die sich nicht auf die Seite der Bomben stellen wollen – egal, wer sie wirft? Die sich nicht mehr einspannen lassen zwischen Propaganda und Patriotismus? Die ihre Menschlichkeit über jeden nationalen Befehl stellen?

Der Krieg, sagt Vian, macht aus freien Menschen Befehlsempfänger und aus Söhnen Leichen. Und wer heute sagt, es gebe „gerechte Kriege“, sollte eine Frage beantworten: Ist es auch ein gerechter Tod?

Darum: Verweigert.

Verweigert den Befehl, zu hassen.\ Verweigert den Reflex, Partei zu ergreifen.\ Verweigert den Dienst an der Waffe.

Denn wie Vian singt:

„Sagen Sie's den Leuten:\ Ich werde nicht kommen.“

We’re back with another update.

It’s been a crazy two weeks. Since I last spoke to you, I’ve been in Sao Paulo, Lisbon, Porto, Munich, Warsaw and now, Albufeira for the Nomad World conference, meeting with nomads, bitcoiners, entrepreneurs, creators and builders. 10 days into a 7wk tour.

If you didn’t read the first update, you can find that here: \ Release Notes Ed #1

Of course, we just released another version of the Web and Mobile Apps:

• Web

• Apple / iOS (you need TestFlight, so download that first and then click the link)

• Google

The skeleton is slowly turning into a real body. The blood is starting to pump, and it’s not just a headless directory anymore — it’s starting to feel like an actual experience.

Still early. Still raw. But here’s what’s new.

The Good

🗺 The Map Is Live

This is the biggest visual and experiential change to Satlantis so far. You can now search for and explore merchants on a map. You access the map from a destination, but it’s global so you can zoom out and see where the action is worldwide, or zoom in to see what’s around you. It works beautifully across both mobile and web.

The one is a beautiful experience. Trust me. Update the app & go play with it.

🎥 Video Content Is Here (Kinda)

We now render video content from the Nostr ecosystem. That means you’ll start seeing videos in your feed and on your profile — if you’ve previously posted videos via other clients. We’re not quite at native video upload yet, but this is the first step. Consider it a sneak preview of a richer, more dynamic feed.

✨ Better Onboarding

We rebuilt the interest selection flow! Interests are now grouped into subcategories with clear emoji identifiers, making it easier and faster to find what you’re into. It’s cleaner, more intuitive, and sets up your profile for better recommendations. The UI and the UX is much much better.

Once again, to try this out, delete the current app, and download it again. Then go through the flow and see for yourself. If it’s your first time using it, just download and enjoy 🙂

📝 Text-Only Posts

You can now post text without needing to attach media. Sounds basic? It is. But necessary. We want Satlantis to be a place for guides, rants, recommendations, reflections and notes — not just videos & pretty pictures. This opens the door.

🎟 Events Got a Serious Upgrade

Big changes:

• New events page design

• Co-hosts upgrade. Now you can toggle between them easily.

• Upgraded notifications

• Venue integration — tap the venue tile to go to venue page (smooth AF)

• Email RSVPs — this one’s huge. People can RSVP with just an email. No login needed. Lower friction = more attendance.

Together, this makes event hosting smoother, and discovery more actionable.

---

The Bad

🔍 Merchant Discovery Is Still a Bit… Meh

Yes, we now have a map. But the underlying discovery engine isn’t quite smart enough yet. We’re working on filters, categories, vibe-tags and much better social + interest matching. For now: it’s functional, and it’s a good discovery experience, but it doesn’t have the full “magic” yet. That’s coming soon.

🙈 Videos Still Can’t Be Uploaded Natively

You’ll see videos from others (if they posted on Damus, Primal, Amethyst etc), but you can’t upload one yourself — yet. That’s coming up next.

📥 No Chat Yet

We wanted this live & available on this release, but we’re still cleaning up some kinks. You will see it in the next release. Pinky promise 😉

---

The Ugly

🧬 It’s Still a Skeleton

The map makes it look like a real product. The feed is coming alive. The events feel functional. But we’re still not there yet. The web home page isn’t selling the experience. The destination pages are still part of the old design and need to be caught up.

The feed is also full of a lot of junk, but that will change as more people join and post new content relevant to travel, location independence, lifestyle, health & the things important to the community on Satlantis.

Getting there…

Final Words

This is the beginning of the real v1. The map is the turning point.

Now we shift into layering utility: better feeds, better discovery, better profiles, better events, actual chat.

If it’s your first time checking out the app, welcome!

If it’s not your first time, delete the current app, download it again (from Google Play or Apple’s Testflight) and check out the new onboarding flow (interests), check out your profile, and of course, go to the merchant tab and open up the map!

In fact, while you’re there, take 5min to suggest some of your favorite local merchants (seed oil free, bitcoin accepted, awesome local pick, etc). You’ll see how smooth that is.

Then…if you’re coming to Prague — go over to the Prague page on the Web App, and click on the Events tab! There’s about 10 side events happening during the conference, and they’re ALL hosted on Satlantis.

Try out the RSVP flow. If you’re logged into Satlantis already, it’s just one click RSVP. If you’re new, and don’t have an account yet, just RSVP with your email 🙂

Finally, it goes without saying, let us know what you think! \ Tag us if you post anything cool. We’ll help amplify your voice.

Looking forward to building this with you.\ See you in 2wks for another update

PS — I almost forgot..I’ll have more news on our crowdfund soon. This will be an opportunity to own a piece of Satlantis & a piece of the future!

Hello world

@ 0c65eba8:4a08ef9a

Sometimes we forget that children cry. That it’s normal. That it’s necessary.

We forget this when we're tired, when we're overwhelmed, or when their tears trigger something unresolved in us.

But crying is not a rebellion.

It’s not disrespect.

It’s not failure.

It’s a release.

Children cry to let go of tension their nervous system can’t yet process. Sometimes it’s from a scraped knee earlier in the day. Sometimes it’s leftover fear from a nightmare. Sometimes it’s nothing but the weight of growing too fast in a world that's too loud and threatening.

Hormonal chaos, emotional overload, even quiet existential sorrow, yes, even in toddlers. All of it can flood them. And their outlet? Tears.

If you stop the tears, you don’t stop the pain. You stop the release.

And that pain doesn’t vanish. It sinks. It stores. It waits inside of them.

Then it leaks out through aggression. Defiance. Withdrawal. Night terrors. Accidents. Sudden cruelty. Uncontrollable outbursts that seem "out of nowhere."

But they’re not out of nowhere. They’re from the emotional reservoir you wouldn’t let them drain.

And here’s something harder to admit:

A big part of the reason adults struggle with their children’s crying is because we haven’t processed our own grief, our own unmet needs, our own silent screams that never found release.

When our child cries, it pulls on the thread of our unhealed places. It stirs the fears we buried. The helplessness we never faced. The shame we swallowed instead of felt.

That’s why parenting is not just a job, it’s a mirror into our soul.

It shows us where we’re still unfinished. And it gives us the sacred pressure we need to grow up.

We don’t become real adults when we hit eighteen.

We become adults when we face ourselves for the sake of someone more vulnerable than us. For our children.

That’s why raising children, when done well, finishes what childhood didn’t.

If we punish or suppress their tears, if we tell them they’re not allowed to cry, or that certain feelings are unacceptable, we don’t teach them strength.

We teach them to go emotionally numb.

And that numbness doesn’t create resilient adults. It creates emotionally disconnected adults. Men and women who can’t access their inner life, who can’t form intimacy, who collapse or lash out under stress because they never learned to metabolize emotion.

Being emotionally dead is not a form of regulation. It’s a form of partial death.

Before we talk about how to respond to their tears, I want to give you something sacred.

A tool for you, the parent.

Because while your child is feeling their storm, you may be bracing against your own.

When the wailing rises, when the flailing begins, when the energy in the room surges like a tide...

You must become their anchor, not another bit of flotsam blown about by the winds. Let the energy of their storm surge around you, but not move you.

And here is the mantra I want you to breathe into your nervous system until it becomes second nature:

“Their cries may pass over me, but they will not pass into me. I will feel their pain, but I will not carry it. I will stay rooted. I will stay warm. I will stay clear.”

Say it again.

“I will stay rooted. I will stay warm. I will stay clear, because my children need me to be their emotional anchor.”

This is not a denial of empathy. This is emotional leadership. You are the calm in the storm, not because it’s easy, but because your child needs someone to hold the emotional ground while they fall apart.

They are not strong enough to handle your overwhelm as well.

So you must handle it. Do not fall apart. Do not react in anger.

Breathe. Ground yourself. Repeat the words. Let their pain pass through you like wind through a stand of willow trees. You do not have to stop their storm. You only have to not get lost in it.

So here’s what we do instead.

We sit. We open our arms. We say:

"That’s a big feeling. I’ll hold you while it moves through."

For little ones, that means lifting them into our chest and letting them soak our shirt. For older kids, that means opening a lap, or a quiet corner, or a firm shoulder they can lean into.

When the storm softens, we ask:

"Do you know why you’re sad?"

If they can answer, we listen. If they can’t, we just stay near.

As they grow, we guide. We teach them to notice what the crying does.

"Does it feel better now?"

"Did the crying fix the broken toy?"

Not as mockery. As Socratic mirror.

We help them realize: crying is for clearing, not solving. Then we ask:

"Now that the sadness is smaller, what do you want to do about it?"

This is how we raise children who can feel without drowning, who can cry without crumbling, who can comfort others without resentment or panic. Who know that on the other side of grief there is happiness again.

We’re not here to silence their sorrow.

We’re here to father and mother their nervous systems.

To teach emotional digestion.

To model, through every quiet, sacred, unhurried moment, what it means to be human and whole. To feel but not be swept away in those feelings.

And if we do this well enough, long enough…

They won’t just stop crying.

They’ll keep growing, into whole, human-hearted men and women who know how to stand strong in life's storms.
