Marty's Bent

J.P. Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon has long been an outspoken skeptic and critic of bitcoin. He has called Bitcoin a speculative asset, a fraud, a pet rock, and has opined that it will inevitably blow up. A couple of years ago, he was on Capitol Hill saying that if he were the government, he would "close it down". Just within the last month, he was on Fox Business News talking with Maria Bartiromo, proclaiming that the U.S. should be stockpiling bullets and rare earth metals instead of bitcoin. It's pretty clear that Jamie Dimon, who is at the helm of the most powerful and largest bank in the world, does not like bitcoin one bit.

Evidence below:

via Bitcoin Magazine

via me

via CNBC

via Trending Politics

Despite Dimon's distinguished disdain for Bitcoin, J.P. Morgan cannot deny reality. The CEO of the largest bank in the world is certainly a powerful man, but no one individual, even in the position that Jamie Dimon is in, is more powerful than the market. And the market has spoken very clearly, it is demanding bitcoin. The Bitcoin ETFs have been the most successful ETFs in terms of pace of growth since their launch. They've accumulated tens of billions of dollars in AUM in a very short period of time. Outpacing the previous record set by the gold ETF, GLD.

Whether or not Jamie Dimon himself likes Bitcoin doesn't matter. J.P. Morgan, as the largest bank in the world and a publicly traded company, has a duty to shareholders. And that duty is to increase shareholder value by any ethical and legal means necessary. Earlier today, J.P. Morgan announced plans to offer clients financing against their Bitcoin ETFs, as well as some other benefits, including having their bitcoin holdings recognized in their overall net worth and liquid assets, similar to stocks, cars, and art, which will be massive for bitcoiners looking to get mortgages and other types of loans.

via Bloomberg

I've talked about this recently, but trying to buy a house when most of your liquid net worth is held in bitcoin is a massive pain in the ass. Up until this point, if you wanted to have your bitcoin recognized as part of your net worth and count towards your overall credit profile, you would need to sell some bitcoin, move it to a bank account, and have it sit there for a certain period of time before it was recognized toward your net worth. This is not ideal for bitcoiners who have sufficient cash flows and don't want to sell their bitcoin, pay the capital gains tax, and risk not being able to buy back the amount of sats they were forced to sell just to get a mortgage.

It's not yet clear to me whether or not J.P. Morgan will recognize bitcoin in cold storage toward their clients' net worth and credit profile, or if this is simply for bitcoin ETFs only. However, regardless, this is a step in the right direction and a validation of something that many bitcoiners have been saying for years. Inevitably, everyone will have to bend the knee to bitcoin. Today, it just happened to be the largest bank in the world. I expect more of this to come in the coming months, years, and decades.

Lyn Alden likes to say it in the context of the U.S. national debt and the fiscal crisis, but it also applies to bitcoin adoption and the need for incumbents to orient themselves around the demands of individual bitcoiners; nothing stops this train.

Corporate Bitcoin Treasuries are Changing Market Dynamics

Leon Wankum revealed how corporate Bitcoin treasuries are fundamentally reshaping business dynamics. Companies can now issue equity to fund operations while preserving their Bitcoin holdings, creating a revolutionary capital structure. Leon highlighted MicroStrategy's position, noting they hold enough Bitcoin to cover dividend payments for over 200 years. This model enables companies to reduce founder dilution since they don't need repeated funding rounds when their treasury appreciates.

"Some companies' Bitcoin treasuries are now worth more than all money they've ever raised." - Leon Wankum

Leon shared examples from his own portfolio companies where this strategy has proven transformative. Public companies have discovered an entirely new business model through strategic dilution that actually increases BTC per share. As Leon explained, this approach allows firms to leverage equity markets for operational funding while their Bitcoin treasury compounds in value, creating a positive feedback loop that benefits both shareholders and the company's long-term sustainability.

Imagina un mundo donde cada peso que gastas es vigilado, registrado y cuestionado. Donde el Estado decide si puedes comprar un café, una manzana o una criptomoneda. No es una distopía de ciencia ficción, es el rumbo que están tomando varios países, mientras otros, como Argentina, dan un giro inesperado hacia la libertad. ¿Quién está ganando esta batalla por el control de tu dinero?

Argentina: "Tus dólares son tuyos" En Argentina, Javier Milei, con su bandera libertaria ondeando, ha dado un paso audaz: desmantelar el control policial sobre el dinero de los ciudadanos. Su lema, "Tus dólares son tuyos", es tan obvio como revolucionario. Después de décadas de corralitos, cepos cambiarios y una inflación que en 2023 alcanzó el 211,4% según el INDEC, Milei apuesta por devolverle al ciudadano el poder sobre su propio capital. Con el país logrando superávit fiscal por primera vez en años (0,2% del PBI en el primer trimestre de 2024), el gobierno ya no necesita espiar cada transacción para exprimir impuestos.

Pero aquí viene lo curioso: encuestas recientes, como una de la consultora Poliarquía, muestran que un 35% de los argentinos aún prefiere que el Estado controle sus finanzas. ¿Masoquismo? ¿Miedo a la libertad? Tal vez sea la costumbre de vivir bajo la lupa. Milei, fiel a su convicción, no solo liberaliza por necesidad económica, sino porque cree que el dinero es tuyo, no del burócrata de turno.

España y el Euro Digital: El ojo que todo lo ve Mientras Argentina afloja las riendas, Europa cabalga en dirección opuesta. En España, el gobierno está reduciendo progresivamente los umbrales para controlar transacciones bancarias. A partir de 2026, cada pago por Bizum —el equivalente ibérico al Pix brasileño— estará bajo escrutinio. Según el Banco de España, en 2024 se realizaron más de 1.200 millones de transacciones por Bizum, moviendo unos 60.000 millones de euros. Ahora, cada una de esas operaciones será un dato más para Hacienda.

Pero no es solo España. La Unión Europea avanza con el Euro Digital, un proyecto que promete ser la pesadilla de cualquier amante de la privacidad. Esta moneda digital, según el Banco Central Europeo, permitirá rastrear cada movimiento, limitar ciertos gastos (¿adiós a compras de cripto o donaciones incómodas?), e incluso programar que el dinero "se oxide". Sí, has leído bien: si no gastas tus euros digitales en un tiempo determinado, podrían perder valor o simplemente desaparecer. Un informe del BCE de 2023 estima que el Euro Digital estará operativo en 2027, y ya hay pruebas piloto en países como Alemania y Francia. ¿Libertad financiera? Más bien un Gran Hermano con esteroides.

Chile: El Estado fisgón y los funcionarios de lujo En Chile, el control monetario también aprieta. El gobierno ha propuesto levantar el secreto bancario, permitiendo que cualquier funcionario del SII pueda husmear en tus cuentas. Además, si haces más de 50 transacciones al mes, el Servicio de Impuestos Internos (SII) pondrá la lupa sobre ti. ¿Y las ferias libres? Esas donde compras tus tomates y zapallos sin complicaciones ahora deberán emitir boletas electrónicas, encareciendo los productos para el ciudadano de a pie. Según la CEPAL, los costos administrativos para pequeños comerciantes podrían aumentar hasta un 15% con estas medidas.

Mientras tanto, el sector público chileno vive en otra galaxia. Funcionarios con sueldos que superan los 5 millones de pesos mensuales (unos 5.500 USD) toman licencias médicas para viajar por el mundo, según denuncias de la Contraloría. Algunos incluso cobran por "turnos" de 17 horas extras diarias o marcan asistencia en dos lugares al mismo tiempo. ¿Y quién paga? Tú, con tus impuestos.

La resistencia: Volver al efectivo o abrazar las cripto Si el Estado quiere controlar cada centavo, ¿qué opciones nos quedan? Una es volver al efectivo, pero no nos engañemos: el dinero fiat, controlado por bancos centrales, pierde valor a largo plazo. En Chile, la inflación acumulada entre 2010 y 2024 fue del 62%, según el INE. Tus billetes de hoy valen menos que los de ayer, y mañana valdrán aún menos.

La otra opción es el mundo cripto, pero no cualquier cripto. Bitcoin, la más conocida, es un titán para almacenar valor, pero para transacciones diarias necesita una segunda capa como Lightning Network, que procesa pagos instantáneos con comisiones ínfimas (menos de 0,01 USD por transacción en 2024). Alternativas como Bitcoin Cash (BCH) o Monero (XMR) ofrecen transacciones rápidas y, en el caso de XMR, un enfoque en la privacidad que hace temblar a los burócratas. Sin embargo, ninguna cripto servirá si los comercios y las personas no las adoptan. En Argentina, por ejemplo, solo el 1,5% de las transacciones minoristas en 2024 usaron criptomonedas, según Chainalysis. La libertad financiera no llega sola: hay que construirla.

El futuro es ahora El dinero es poder, y quien controla el dinero controla tu vida. Mientras Milei en Argentina te devuelve las llaves de tus dólares, en Europa y Chile te atan las manos con leyes, regulaciones y monedas digitales. La pregunta no es si quieres libertad, sino si estás dispuesto a pelear por ella. Usa efectivo, explora cripto, pero sobre todo, no dejes que el Gran Hermano decida por ti. Porque una vez que el Estado mete la mano en tu bolsillo, no la saca nunca.

Vegas Comedown, or Was Bitcoin 2025 Too Noisy?

“Shitcoin Magazine,” tweeted Bitcoin educator and author Knut Svanholm about the event that BTC Inc, the parent company of Bitcoin Magazine, organized in Las Vegas last week. Dancing cows dashed across my feed. “It’s a political convention now,” I overheard two attendees saying as they exited the Nakamoto stage, heads shaking. Nigel Farage, the inflammatory British politician and leader of Reform UK, was shouting on stage about becoming prime minister. A somewhat calmer personality, Vice President JD Vance spoke about “crypto” and thanked Coinbase.

Word on the (online) street is that Bitcoin 2025 was captured by political and shitcoin-y interests. Our own technical editor, Shinobi, opted out of mass surveillance and bailed for freer pastures at the Oslo Freedom Forum. Erik Cason was uncharacteristically polite (“shitcoin adjacent”), though he was there in person, happily signing the Cryptosovereignty book that Bitcoin Magazine Books published in 2023.

“None of my Bitcoiner friends come here anymore,” said Ben, an entrepreneur who runs a Bitcoin business, on the fence about coming back next year.

Whenever I mention that I work for Bitcoin Magazine, I usually have to field questions about shitcoinery and political shilling (Are you a MAGA dude now?!). Coming to Vegas was inspection time for me — or at least a chance to see what it is that troubles so many people.

With the glamor of the Strip itself and its sensory overload, it’d be easy to be dazzled — plus, it was the first time I had left Fort Europa for the land of the free in years, first time in Vegas, and first time at an American Bitcoin event. It’d be easy for me to simply dismiss the haters by paraphrasing Taylor (“haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate…”).

While sitting down in the whale pass area the Deep, a hipster-looking gentleman started talking to me about how Bitcoin is fundamentally broken and that I should investigate his energy-based shitcoin instead. Waiting for Vance’s speech in the main hall, I was introduced to three young dudes dressed up to perfection and barely out of college, at the conference “to land a job in the industry” — i.e., grifters. A mid-60s technology dude interjected himself into the conversation, bragged about how he worked on tech for Microsoft in the ’90s, and explained how blockchain (not Bitcoin) is the future — only to have us scan the NFC card he had implanted in his left hand. Ugh.

Thus, it wasn’t difficult to see the things all these people online had objected to: Our conference was a party, or “an elaborate Bitcoin extraction scheme,” a “circus, shitcoin fest,” or stablecoin mania. Plus:

They’re not wrong. But honestly, you don’t have to look.

Here’s an underappreciated order to the known universe: To each successful movement or phenomenon, parasites and fraudsters are drawn. It’s why the shitcoin guys are around Bitcoin events and why the politicians are pandering to our cause. Vegas itself is the center of gravity for that sort of thing — gambling, nudity, alcohol, prostitution, and other dopamine-inducing stimulants. I first titled this tak_e_ What Hookers in Vegas Can Teach Us About Politicians at Bitcoin 2025; the simple observation is that fraudsters, grifters, and scammers go to where the value is. Parasites feed off healthy, growing, flourishing organisms.

“Scammers flooding in,” as Tomer Strolight post-conference tweeted, is thus the least surprising thing ever.

We’re succeeding, growing, and becoming if not respectable then at least a household name. The FT and WSJ covering us feel somewhere between “…then they laugh at you“ and “…then they fight you” stages.

Running around meeting people — hardcore Bitcoiners I’ve only ever met online, authors and writers and editors I’ve worked with (they were all in Vegas, since that was the place to be…) — and attending the sum total of three presentations, I felt what Wayne Vaughan of Bitcoin First described:

The Bitcoin Conference 2025 was different and in many ways disappointing.

Good:
The private events were excellent opportunities to reconnect with old friends and meet new people.

Bitcoin has grown up. We’re finally legit.

Neutral:
The conference was dominated by politics and…

— Wayne Vaughan (@WayneVaughan) May 30, 2025

You can just meet people, just do things.

To make an obvious analogy: The internet is littered with porn, gambling, and cat videos, and it’s the most successful technology in a generation. You don’t have to look; you can just work and provide value instead of wasting away your life talking to shitcoiners or being annoyed at politicians and other fraudsters doing their things.

“Cozying up to any government is a bad idea,” concluded the WSJ piece, citing a “wing” of purist Bitcoin that we all feel. Yes, agreed. But the puritism that its opposite requires condemns us to irrelevancy — belittles and betrays the broader mission.

So yeah: the grifters, the parasites, the politicians, and the financial engineers are here. Good for them. That they’re here is a sign of victory.

Knock me over with a feather, haters.

Come join us for Bitcoin 2026 and see for yourself.

If you'd like to connect with me on XMPP, you're very welcome! I first used it many years ago, and now I've returned to it — and I'm really glad I did.

XMPP is a secure and privacy-friendly way to communicate. It's spam-resistant: messages only go through once you've accepted a contact request. To request a connection, just send me a message.

One of the great things about XMPP is that you have control over encryption. You can choose to use strong encryption like PGP or OMEMO, or even no encryption at all — it's entirely up to you. Your messages aren’t tied to any one company or service.

There are many apps (called clients) you can use with XMPP, and you’re not locked into a single one that monitors or sells your data. XMPP is an open protocol, which means freedom of choice and better privacy.

My XMPP username is: rubenstorm@c0nnect.de

I’ve also been much less active on Facebook, Instagram, and other social media. That’s because I’ve shifted from platforms to protocols — more decentralized, censorship-resistant tools that put users in control. I started exploring these about two years ago and haven’t looked back.

If you’re interested in learning more or want help getting started, feel free to reach out. Just message me using any XMPP client — I’ll be happy to connect!

A few days ago I remembered video by Antonio Stappaerts(Artwod) on Youtube. And I thought to myself I want to be really good at drawing hands.\ In the video he explains something that, in my opinion, applies when learning just about anything.

If you've heard of the Dunning-Kruger effect then you know the first part.\ If you haven't, one begins learning something and on top of the first peak thinks oneself to be almost a master. And then one learns a little bit more and realizes how little skill one actually has.

\ Now, what is really interesting is this. He points out that the second slope is made up of many smaller Dunning-Kruger effects. For example the effect will apply when learning: the basic shape of the figure, how to pose the figure, how draw the hands, the hair etc.

So the way to climb the second hill is to understand and practice these smaller skills. And not just once or twice. You want to reach close to the second peak of each of the smaller skills.

And with that in mind I search for a good tutorial about drawing hands and got down to it(for the third time).

Step one was to learn pose and gesture using a grid shape.

Step two. Practice the basic forms for the palm and fingers.\ I got carried away and drew some hands.

Step three. learn the measurements.

Step four. Understand the fingers.

Step five. Learn about the thumb and put it all together. Drawing from reference and imagination.

Bitmain’s new device raises the bar for energy efficiency.

During the World Digital Mining Summit, Bitmain introduced its latest bitcoin mining device: the Antminer S23 Hydro. The new miner promises an energy efficiency of 9.5 joules per terahash (J/TH), setting new industry standards.

ANTMINER S23 Hyd. Newly Launched at WDMS 2025!

Sales Start from May 28th, 9:00AM (EST)

— BITMAIN (@BITMAINtech) May 27, 2025

According to Bitmain’s presentation, the Antminer S23 Hydro delivers up to 580 TH/s with a power consumption of 5,510 watts.

Scheduled for release in early 2026, the Antminer S23 Hydro marks a major leap forward compared to the first ASIC devices dedicated to mining. To put it in perspective, the first specialized miners launched in 2013 consumed around 1,200 J/TH. Bitmain’s latest device therefore represents a more than 99% improvement in efficiency.

Hashprice and economic challenges

In recent months, the hashprice — the metric measuring mining profitability — has remained relatively low, dropping below $39 per petahash per second during the year. As of now, the hashprice stands at around $55 per petahash per second, according to data from Hashrate Index.

This scenario has pushed several companies in the sector to rethink their expansion strategies. Instead of increasing hashing capacity, many are choosing to upgrade their existing fleets, focusing on efficiency rather than sheer scale.

The introduction of the Antminer S23 Hydro could catalyze a transformation within the mining ecosystem. The gradual replacement of outdated devices with more efficient technology could lead to a significant reduction in the Bitcoin network’s overall energy consumption.

— Bitcoin Magazine (@BitcoinMagazine) June 3, 2025

Today’s purchase is the first transaction of the secured SEK 60 million that K33 announced it will buy for its Bitcoin treasury strategy.

“We expect Bitcoin to be the best-performing asset in the coming years and will build our balance sheet in Bitcoin moving forward,” said the CEO of K33 Torbjorn Bull Jenssen. “This will give K33 direct exposure to the Bitcoin price and help unlock powerful synergies with our brokerage operation. Our ambition is to build a balance of at least 1000 BTC over time and then scale from there.”

During K33’s Q1 2025 Report & Strategic Outlook presentation. Torbjorn Jenssen mentioned that the “US BTC ETF was the most successful ETF launch in history. Acquiring more capital in just one year than gold did in 20.”

Jenssen also said K33 is working with other Bitcoin treasury companies in the Nordics and hopes to use its treasury as a foundation to offer new services, such as Bitcoin backed lending. 

“For K33, Bitcoin is not only a high-conviction asset — it’s also a strategic enabler,” he said. “With a sizable BTC reserve, we will be able to strengthen our financial position while unlocking new revenue streams, product capabilities, and partnerships.”

Bitcoin will be the best performing asset in the coming decade and my goal with K33 is to accumulate as many as possible while unlocking powerful operational synergies with our brokerage operation,” posted Jenssen on X.

Bitcoin treasury holdings are becoming a trend of companies in 2025. Around 217 companies and public entities now hold Bitcoin on their balance sheets.

Last week, during the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, the CEO of GameStop Ryan Cohen announced that GameStop purchased 4,710 Bitcoin worth approximately $505 million, marking another major corporate entry into Bitcoin treasury holdings.

In an interview with the CEO of Nakamoto David Bailey, the CEO of GameStop Ryan Cohen stated, “If the thesis is correct then Bitcoin and gold as well can be a hedge against global currency devaluation and systemic risk. Bitcoin has certain unique advantages better than gold.”

Canadian Company SolarBank Adopts Bitcoin Treasury Strategy

Today, SolarBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN), a leader in distributed solar energy, battery storage, and clean energy infrastructure across North America, has announced the integration of Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset into its corporate treasury strategy, following the footsteps of MicroStrategy and SharpLink Gaming.

SolarBank has also applied to open an institutional account with Coinbase Prime (NASDAQ: COIN), enabling secure Bitcoin custody, USDC services, and a self-custodial wallet for its Bitcoin holdings.

JUST IN: North American construction engineering company SolarBank adopts a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve pic.twitter.com/b2xvVARjZZ

— Bitcoin Magazine (@BitcoinMagazine) June 3, 2025

The company cited several strategic advantages for adopting Bitcoin as a reserve asset:

• Financial Resilience: Bitcoin holdings will serve as a hedge against inflation and currency debasement.
• Clean Energy Off-set: Emissions tied to Bitcoin mining will be counterbalanced by SolarBank’s renewable energy generation.
• Market Appeal: The move targets tech-savvy investors interested in digital assets, DeFi, and blockchain.
• Competitive Differentiation: SolarBank aims to differentiate itself as a first-mover in combining renewable energy with Web3 and DeFi principles.

“As the adoption of Bitcoin continues to grow, SolarBank believes that establishing a Bitcoin treasury strategy taps into a growing sector that is seeing increasing adoption,” commented Dr. Richard Lu. “In a world of ever-increasing energy demand and treasury complexity, SolarBank delivers renewable energy solutions and recurring revenues, now combined with all of the benefits of holding Bitcoin.”

SolarBank further emphasized that its core focus remains on renewable energy development, highlighting several recent achievements: 

• A $100 million U.S. solar deal with CIM Group targeting 97 MW of projects.
• A $49.5 million agreement with Qcells to deploy US made solar technology.
• A $41 million partnership with Honeywell to develop landfill-based solar farms. 
• A $25 million credit facility from RBC to expand its battery energy storage portfolio.

With over 1 GW of projects in development and partnerships with Fortune 500 companies, SolarBank continues to generate recurring revenues through long-term contracts while accelerating decarbonization efforts.

“The actual timing and value of Bitcoin purchases, under the allocation strategy will be determined by management,” stated the company in the press release. “Purchases will also depend on several factors, including, among others, general market and business conditions, the trading price of Bitcoin and the anticipated cash needs of SolarBank. The allocation strategy may be suspended, discontinued or modified at any time for any reason. As of the date of this press release, no Bitcoin purchases have been made.”

@ d9a329af:bef580d7

This one is rather straightforward today, as I wanted to write something on the software I personally use in my day-to-day musical composition deal, depending on what needs to be done. I want to go a little in depth in this regard, so bear with me on this one.

For the first stop on this libreware-riddled pilgramage, the operating system.

There are two I'll be mentioning: one for beginners, and the one I use on a day-to-day basis (my daily driver).

1. Linux Mint
2. Fun Fact: This was my longest-running daily driver for a while (over a year or two and some change) before I switched to my current one (based upon Arch, an advanced distro)
3. Beginner friendly (based upon Ubuntu, Debian if using LMDE)
4. Usually works OOTB when it's set up for music production (with some exceptions on some software)
5. Versatile multimedia distribution (gaming, music, art, creative writing, etc.)
6. Software is old, but the distro is rock-solid.

Linux Mint... the classic choice for a popular distro aimed at GNU/Linux beginners. It's the most popular of them all, especially when it comes to Snap-free protest distros (Pop_OS! is another one that's Snap-free), and the most popular in general. It's a general-purpose OS aimed at easing beginners into Linux, and the wider FLOSS community (FLOSS is an acronym for Free/Libre Open-Source Software) of software made available using licensed like GPL, MIT, MPL, Apache-2, BSD, WTFPL, and many more of the like.

I would personally recommend the Debian Edition (LMDE) and use the Debian Testing repositories if you want up-to-date software, and not bleeding edge for APT (the package manager in Debian and Ubuntu). It will be much easier to learn how to add software repositories with a couple commands in the terminal that way, and this knowledge will transcend if you decide to move to vanilla Debian. However, if you want the Cinnamon Desktop Environment, Linux Mint is a good choice, as its developers are behind Cinnamon (It has the looks of Windows Vista, which is why it's so familiar for those switching from Windows). However, there isn't too much software in the Mint, Debian and Ubuntu repos, which is a bummer (you can just find community-maintained repos or build software from source if you have the know-how).

1. CachyOS
2. Fun Fact: It's my current daily driver (if you couldn't tell by now).
3. Arch-based distribution focused on content creation (vibe emanation as some Nostriches call it), gaming and other multimedia work
4. Optimized repositories depending on the CPU architecture family (I have V3 repos enabled, since I use a CPU that supports V3)
5. Bleeding edge of software packaging
6. Packages (both official and community maintained) out the wazoo (80k+ packages in the AUR [Arch User Repository], with some AUR packages in binary form thanks to the Chaotic AUR repo)

CachyOS... the gamer's Arch that even beats out the likes of EndeavourOS and Garuda Linux (both Arch-based gaming distros). This is thanks in part to the optimizations made to vanilla Arch (especially the optimized repositories based upon what CPU you have installed) among many other things done to it under the hood. However, while it is fantastic for gaming, the other multimedia performances are quite a sight to behold, especially since anybody worth their salt is using almost exclusively FLOSS to make things easier for yourself to escape the grasp of incompetent fools that we call politicians. Using Linux, FLOSS and GrapheneOS (the only acceptable AOSP ROM) will help you kickstart your journey to privacy, security and proper OPSEC protocols so you don't get sucked into the proprietary software matrix (which I explained in this article).

As a Linux user with almost 5 years of experience, it's hard for me to go back to proprietary stuff. After all, with the advancement in weaponized and centralized AI on the rise, I wanted to seriously get myself out of that (which is why I used almost exclusively FLOSS for the past 4+ years). Enough about that already, let's get into the software required for you to make music... oh wait, I'm talking about myself here. Whoops....

Now that the operating system is out of the way, let's get into the actual software I use to make music:

• Ardour (DAW)
• x42 Plugins (General Purpose Plugin Suite)
• LSP PLugins (General Purpose Plugin Suite)
• Sfizz (SFZ player)
• Dragonfly Reverb (Reverberation Plugin Suite)
• DeBess (Airwindows De-Esser)
• Noise Repellant (Noise Gate)
• Guitarix and GX Plugins (Guitar Pedalboard Simulation)
• Vital (Synth Plugin)
• Surge XT (Synth Plugin) [Unused]
• EQ10Q (No longer usable)
• CALF Plugins (No Longer Usable)
• DSK SF2 (I used this due to ACE Fluid Synth acting like a turd)
• DR-84 (Proprietary Drum Machine Plugin [Winblows])

These are the primary pieces of software that I use to make music on Linux, with the description as shown above. This article would be too long anyway if I were to explain them, so I'll leave that here.

Since late December, 2024, an evil magic attack targeted me and my family as well as many people occupying governmental positions. The attack was involving the Antichrist that was on an unreachable island found by me telepathically. Sadly the information about the Antichrist reached some Russian Oligarchs Among which many Jews. And somehow he was contacted by them as well as many other Antichrist Allies among which Royal families and he led the magic attack even though magic mixed with AI and computer technologies. The attack consisted in whispering of the devils, of mankind (Antichrist allies) and jinns. Physical harm was attempted too although so weak for any significant effect for me at least. I hesitated on killing the Antichrist because his appearance is a sign of Judgement Day, however, because of acknowledging that the attack would be too intense for ordinary people that don’t know how to know the difference between inner voice or whispering of the devils I have decided to kill him by requesting that he is burned in the core of the earth and by turning any remains into dust spread in space. He didn’t have only a physical presence though he had an incorporated devil. So it took a while to kill the devil that was isolated in iron coffin first so it assumed a smaller figure while trying to escape and finally God guided me to request that the devil is hit with fireballs over and over again. It was confirmed to me that the devil of the Antichrist was completely burned out. And that the next sign would be the creature coming out of the earth, Ad-Daba as well as the smoke covering all the earth, with which there is a great punishment, and that I would be able to fly too (good for me). I hesitated on spreading the news about the Antichrist to avoid fitnah (confusion and trial). Also because he was never freed out of the island before getting burned out. I am mentioning this because it’s important to know that when God’s punishment comes and when the great signs of Judgement Day (among which what’s mentioned above) would appear the returning to God in belief or in repentance won’t be accepted; so my advise is to do it now.

27:82 An-Naml

‎۞ وَإِذَا وَقَعَ الْقَوْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَخْرَجْنَا لَهُمْ دَابَّةً مِنَ الْأَرْضِ تُكَلِّمُهُمْ أَنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوا بِآيَاتِنَا لَا يُوقِنُونَ

And when the word befalls them, We will bring forth for them a creature from the earth speaking to them, [saying] that the people were, of Our verses, not certain [in faith].

1. Ad-Dukhaan

حم

Ha, Meem.

وَالْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ

By the clear Book,

إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مُبَارَكَةٍ ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنْذِرِينَ

Indeed, We sent it down during a blessed night. Indeed, We were to warn [mankind].

فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ

On that night is made distinct every precise matter -

أَمْرًا مِنْ عِنْدِنَا ۚ إِنَّا كُنَّا مُرْسِلِينَ

[Every] matter [proceeding] from Us. Indeed, We were to send [a messenger]

رَحْمَةً مِنْ رَبِّكَ ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ

As mercy from your Lord. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

رَبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ۖ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُوقِنِينَ

Lord of the heavens and the earth and that between them, if you would be certain.

لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ ۖ رَبُّكُمْ وَرَبُّ آبَائِكُمُ الْأَوَّلِينَ

There is no deity except Him; He gives life and causes death. [He is] your Lord and the Lord of your first forefathers.

بَلْ هُمْ فِي شَكٍّ يَلْعَبُونَ

But they are in doubt, amusing themselves.

فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ

Then watch for the Day when the sky will bring a visible smoke.

يَغْشَى النَّاسَ ۖ هَٰذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

Covering the people; this is a painful torment.

رَبَّنَا اكْشِفْ عَنَّا الْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ

[They will say], "Our Lord, remove from us the torment; indeed, we are believers."

أَنَّىٰ لَهُمُ الذِّكْرَىٰ وَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مُبِينٌ

How will there be for them a reminder [at that time]? And there had come to them a clear Messenger.

ثُمَّ تَوَلَّوْا عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا مُعَلَّمٌ مَجْنُونٌ

Then they turned away from him and said, "[He was] taught [and is] a madman."

إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيلًا ۚ إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ

Indeed, We will remove the torment for a little. Indeed, you [disbelievers] will return [to disbelief].

يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ الْبَطْشَةَ الْكُبْرَىٰ إِنَّا مُنْتَقِمُونَ

The Day We will strike with the greatest assault, indeed, We will take retribution.

6:158 Al-An'aam

‎هَلْ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَّا أَنْ تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَوْ يَأْتِيَ رَبُّكَ أَوْ يَأْتِيَ بَعْضُ آيَاتِ رَبِّكَ ۗ يَوْمَ يَأْتِي بَعْضُ آيَاتِ رَبِّكَ لَا يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَانُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ آمَنَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِي إِيمَانِهَا خَيْرًا ۗ قُلِ انْتَظِرُوا إِنَّا مُنْتَظِرُونَ

Do they [then] wait for anything except that the angels should come to them or your Lord should come or that there come some of the signs of your Lord? The Day that some of the signs of your Lord will come no soul will benefit from its faith as long as it had not believed before or had earned through its faith some good. Say, "Wait. Indeed, we [also] are waiting."

4:17 An-Nisaa

‎إِنَّمَا التَّوْبَةُ عَلَى اللَّهِ لِلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ السُّوءَ بِجَهَالَةٍ ثُمَّ يَتُوبُونَ مِنْ قَرِيبٍ فَأُولَٰئِكَ يَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ ۗ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا

The repentance accepted by Allah is only for those who do wrong in ignorance [or carelessness] and then repent soon after. It is those to whom Allah will turn in forgiveness, and Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.

4:18 An-Nisaa

‎وَلَيْسَتِ التَّوْبَةُ لِلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ السَّيِّئَاتِ حَتَّىٰ إِذَا حَضَرَ أَحَدَهُمُ الْمَوْتُ قَالَ إِنِّي تُبْتُ الْآنَ وَلَا الَّذِينَ يَمُوتُونَ وَهُمْ كُفَّارٌ ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ أَعْتَدْنَا لَهُمْ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا

But repentance is not [accepted] of those who [continue to] do evil deeds up until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "Indeed, I have repented now," or of those who die while they are disbelievers. For them We have prepared a painful punishment.

4:47 An-Nisaa

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ آمِنُوا بِمَا نَزَّلْنَا مُصَدِّقًا لِمَا مَعَكُمْ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ نَطْمِسَ وُجُوهًا فَنَرُدَّهَا عَلَىٰ أَدْبَارِهَا أَوْ نَلْعَنَهُمْ كَمَا لَعَنَّا أَصْحَابَ السَّبْتِ ۚ وَكَانَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ مَفْعُولًا

O you who were given the Scripture, believe in what We have sent down [to Muhammad], confirming that which is with you, before We obliterate faces and turn them toward their backs or curse them as We cursed the sabbath-breakers. And ever is the decree of Allah accomplished.

4:48 An-Nisaa

إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَغْفِرُ أَنْ يُشْرَكَ بِهِ وَيَغْفِرُ مَا دُونَ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ ۚ وَمَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ فَقَدِ افْتَرَىٰ إِثْمًا عَظِيمًا

Indeed, Allah does not forgive association with Him, but He forgives what is less than that for whom He wills. And he who associates others with Allah has certainly fabricated a tremendous sin.

41:13 Fussilat

‎فَإِنْ أَعْرَضُوا فَقُلْ أَنْذَرْتُكُمْ صَاعِقَةً مِثْلَ صَاعِقَةِ عَادٍ وَثَمُودَ

But if they turn away, then say, "I have warned you of a thunderbolt like the thunderbolt [that struck] 'Aad and Thamud.

61:13 As-Saff

‎وَأُخْرَىٰ تُحِبُّونَهَا ۖ نَصْرٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَفَتْحٌ قَرِيبٌ ۗ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

And [you will obtain] another [favor] that you love - victory from Allah and an imminent conquest; and give good tidings to the believers.

I often hear "bitcoin doesn't interest me, I'm not a finance person."

Ironically, the beauty of sound money is you don't have to be. In the current system you're expected to manage a diversified investment portfolio or pay someone to do it. Bitcoin will make that optional.

— ODELL (@ODELL) September 16, 2018

At first glance bitcoin often appears overwhelming to newcomers. It is incredibly easy to get bogged down in the details of how it works or different ways to use it. Enthusiasts, such as myself, often enjoy going down the deep rabbit hole of the potential of bitcoin, possible pitfalls and theoretical scenarios, power user techniques, and the developer ecosystem. If your first touch point with bitcoin is that type of content then it is only natural to be overwhelmed. While it is important that we have a thriving community of bitcoiners dedicated to these complicated tasks - the true beauty of bitcoin lies in its simplicity. Bitcoin is simply better money. It is the best money we have ever had.

Life is complicated. Life is hard. Life is full of responsibility and surprises. Bitcoin allows us to focus on our lives while relying on a money that is simple. A money that is not controlled by any individual, company, or government. A money that cannot be easily seized or blocked. A money that cannot be devalued at will by a handful of corrupt bureaucrat who live hundreds of miles from us. A money that can be easily saved and should increase in purchasing power over time without having to learn how to "build a diversified stock portfolio" or hire someone to do it for us.

Bitcoin enables all of us to focus on our lives - our friends and family - doing what we love with the short time we have on this earth. Time is scarce. Life is complicated. Bitcoin is the most simple aspect of our complicated lives. If we spend our scarce time working then we should be able to easily save that accrued value for future generations without watching the news or understanding complicated financial markets. Bitcoin makes this possible for anyone.

Yesterday was Mother's Day. Raising a human is complicated. It is hard, it requires immense personal responsibility, it requires critical thinking, but mothers figure it out, because it is worth it. Using and saving bitcoin is simple -  simply install an app on your phone. Every mother can do it. Every person can do it.

Life is complicated. Life is beautiful. Bitcoin is simple.

5/27/2025, Las Vegas, NV — Sati, a Bitcoin payments app and Lightning infrastructure provider, today announced the launch of its Lightning integration with Xverse, a Bitcoin wallet used by over 1.5 million people worldwide.

Thanks to the integration, Xverse users can now send and receive sats (bitcoin’s smallest denomination) instantly over the Lightning Network with no setup, no app switching, and no custodial risk.

Initially designed in 2017, the Lightning Network has grown to become Bitcoin’s leading layer-2, with a current BTC capacity of over $465M.

Sati is now leveraging this technology to bring the world’s favorite digital currency into the pockets of 3 billion users worldwide, thanks to its powerful API integration with WhatsApp.

“Bitcoin was not meant to be an asset for Wall Street—it was built for peer-to-peer money, borderless and accessible,” said Felipe Servin, Founder and CEO of Sati.

“Integrating Lightning natively into Xverse brings that vision back to life, making Bitcoin usable at scale for billions.”

Thanks to the integration, every Xverse user now gets a Lightning Address instantly.

That means they can receive tips, pay invoices, and use Bitcoin for microtransactions—all without having to manage channels or switch between different apps.

Sati expects USDT on Lightning to be supported as early as Q3 for the Xverse wallet and in July 2025 for users accessing Sati through WhatsApp.

This integration positions Sati’s role as a Lightning infrastructure provider, not just a consumer app.

By leveraging its API-based solution, the company provides plug-and-play backend services to wallets and platforms looking to add Bitcoin payments without compromising on security or UX.

The Xverse launch follows the debut of Parasite Pool, a new mining pool leveraging Sati and Xverse’s tech stack and focused on democratizing Bitcoin mining.

Parasite Pool charges 0% fees and pays out instantly over Lightning, making it ideal for small-scale miners, especially those running ultra-low-power hardware like Bitaxe.

With over 500 users joining Parasite Pool within weeks of launch and an average pool hashrate of 5 PH/s, Parasite Pool is steadily growing its presence in the home mining space.

Thanks to the Lightning integration, Parasite Pool supports the smallest Lightning payouts in the industry (a fraction of a cent), lowering the barrier to entry for anyone interested in mining.

Sati recently closed a $600K pre-seed round backed by Bitcoin-focused investors, including Draper Associates, BitcoinFi, Arcanum, BoostVC, and Ricardo Salinas.

The funding is being used to support global expansion, stablecoin integration, Lightning infrastructure growth, and broader access to Bitcoin in emerging markets.

Sati will be conducting live product demos at Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas on May 27-29. To learn more about Sati, visit sati.pro

1. Einleitung

Dieser Beitrag bietet eine detaillierte Einführung in Nostr - ein dezentrales Protokoll für soziale Medien, das sich grundlegend von traditionellen und föderierten Plattformen unterscheidet - und erweitert seine Diskussion, um das Potenzial für die Integration von Nostr in die Entwicklung von Bildungsplattformen im Sinne von Open Educational Practices (OEP) zu untersuchen. Nostr ist als leichtgewichtiger, zensurresistenter Mechanismus konzipiert, der in erster Linie auf einer kryptografischen Schlüsselverwaltung und einer Client-zentrierten Architektur basiert, die zusammen eine dezentrale Identitätskontrolle und Autonomie über digitale Inhalte ermöglichen. Im Gegensatz zu konventionellen zentralisierten Modellen, die sich auf servergestützte Kontrolle oder föderierte Systeme wie Mastodon, die Moderation und Identitätsspeicherung zusammenfassen, stützt sich Nostr auf ein Netzwerk von "Relais", die ohne direkte Interkommunikation arbeiten, wobei alle Funktionen der Datenaggregation, des Austauschs von Inhalten zwischen den Räumen und der Benutzerinteraktion an die Client-Anwendungen delegiert werden. Ziel dieses Beitrags ist es daher, einen umfassenden technischen und konzeptionellen Überblick über die Architektur des Protokolls und eine kritische Diskussion seiner Anwendbarkeit im Kontext dezentraler Bildungsplattformen zu geben, die eine offene, nutzergesteuerte Erstellung, Verwaltung und Verteilung von Inhalten fördern und damit den Prinzipien des OEP entsprechen.

2. Hintergrund und Motivation

Die Entwicklung der sozialen Medien in den letzten zwei Jahrzehnten war geprägt von zunehmend zentralisierten Plattformen, die sowohl die digitale Identität der Nutzer als auch die von ihnen erstellten Inhalte kontrollieren, was oft zu Zensur, algorithmischer Manipulation und Einzelausfällen führt. Im Gegensatz dazu haben sich dezentralisierte Social-Media-Protokolle wie Nostr als innovative Antwort auf diese Zentralisierungsfallen entwickelt, die offene, kryptografisch sichere und verteilte Architekturen verwenden. Nostr wurde mit dem ausdrücklichen Schwerpunkt konzipiert, den Nutzern die volle Kontrolle über ihre Kontoauthentifizierung und digitale Identität zu geben, was durch die Verwaltung von kryptografischen Schlüsselpaaren analog zu denen in Bitcoin-Wallets erreicht wird. Dieses Modell verbessert nicht nur die zensurresistenten Eigenschaften der Plattform, sondern verändert auch grundlegend die Machtdynamik in traditionellen sozialen Netzwerken, da es die Abhängigkeit von zentralen Behörden minimiert und die Möglichkeiten der Ausbeutung und Überwachung verringert. Im Kontext von Bildungsökosystemen bieten diese Merkmale eine solide Grundlage für die Entwicklung von Plattformen, die transparent, partizipatorisch und widerstandsfähig sind, da sie die gemeinsame Nutzung und kontinuierliche Weiterentwicklung von Bildungsressourcen ohne zentralisierte Kontrolle oder Unternehmenssteuerung unterstützen.

3. Technische Architektur von Nostr

Die Architektur von Nostr basiert in erster Linie auf zwei integralen Komponenten: Clients und Relays. Clients sind die benutzerseitigen Anwendungen, die die Erstellung, Veröffentlichung und Aggregation von Inhalten ermöglichen, während Relays Server sind, die von den Benutzern generierte Nachrichten, so genannte "Events", empfangen, speichern und weiterleiten. Eine der wichtigsten Neuerungen des Nostr-Protokolls ist die radikale Entkopplung der traditionellen Client-Server-Beziehung: Die Relais müssen sich nicht synchronisieren oder miteinander kommunizieren, was bedeutet, dass die Replikation von Inhalten und die Aggregation von Daten zwischen den Räumen vollständig auf der Client-Seite stattfindet. Dies minimiert die zentrale Kontrolle und schafft ein verteiltes, relaisbasiertes System, das von Natur aus resistent gegen Zensur ist, da die Dichte der verfügbaren Relays und die Möglichkeit der Nutzer, sich mit mehreren Relays zu verbinden, sicherstellen, dass die Inhalte auch dann zugänglich bleiben, wenn bestimmte Relays ausfallen oder kompromittiert sind.

In Nostr sind Ereignisse als JSON-Objekte strukturiert, die einem definierten Schema mit verschiedenen "Arten" (NIPs) entsprechen, um spezifische Funktionalitäten und andere zukünftige Erweiterungen zu unterstützen. Jedes Ereignis wird mit dem privaten kryptografischen Schlüssel des Nutzers digital signiert, was die Authentizität und Integrität der Daten garantiert und gleichzeitig eine sichere, pseudonyme Interaktion ermöglicht. Da innerhalb des Protokolls keine zentrale Behörde oder ein einziger Identitätsspeicher existiert, behalten die Nutzer die vollständige Kontrolle über ihre digitalen Identitäten, und wenn der private Schlüssel verloren geht, ist das entsprechende Konto unwiederbringlich. Dieser Ansatz verankert den Grundsatz, dass Identität sowohl dezentralisiert als auch unveränderlich ist, und stärkt die individuelle Kontrolle über persönliche Daten und Inhalte.

Da die Relays unabhängig voneinander von verschiedenen Betreibern verwaltet und nicht von zentralen Diensten koordiniert werden, können die Benutzer mehrere Relays auswählen, um die Bereitstellung und Replikation von Inhalten zu optimieren. Diese architektonische Entscheidung verbessert die Redundanz und Ausfallsicherheit erheblich, bringt aber gleichzeitig technische Herausforderungen in Bezug auf Standardisierung, Moderation und effiziente Kommunikation zwischen den Clients mit sich. Nostr integriert auch Bitcoin-basierte Mikrozahlungen (bekannt als "Zaps"), um finanzielle Anreize für den Betrieb von Relay-Servern zu schaffen und so die Herausforderungen der wirtschaftlichen Nachhaltigkeit in einer dezentralen Infrastruktur zu bewältigen. Die Design-Entscheidungen in Nostr fördern Offenheit und Innovation, indem sie es jeder Person oder Organisation mit ausreichenden technischen Fähigkeiten erlauben, ein Relay zu hosten oder einen Client zu entwickeln, was zu einem lebendigen Ökosystem von verschiedenen Anwendungen und Diensten führt.

4. Identitätsmanagement und Moderation

Im Mittelpunkt des dezentralen Paradigmas von Nostr steht der Ansatz der Identitätsverwaltung, der sich von traditionellen Systemen unterscheidet, bei denen Identitäten als Kontodaten von zentralen Servern verwaltet werden. Bei Nostr verfügt jeder Benutzer über ein einzigartiges kryptografisches Schlüsselpaar, wobei der öffentliche Schlüssel als dauerhafte digitale Kennung und der private Schlüssel als Mittel zum Signieren aller Aktionen und Ereignisse dient. Dieses kryptonative Modell gewährleistet nicht nur robuste Sicherheit und Authentizität, sondern überlässt den Nutzern auch die alleinige Verantwortung für die Verwaltung ihrer Schlüssel - was sowohl die Freiheit als auch das Risiko eines vollständig dezentralen Identitätssystems unterstreicht.Dieses empfindliche Gleichgewicht unterstreicht die Autonomie der Nutzer und steht im Einklang mit dem breiteren Ethos dezentraler sozialer Medien, in denen keine einzelne Instanz die Identität einer Person ohne Zugang zu ihrem privaten Schlüssel außer Kraft setzen oder manipulieren kann.

Die Moderation in Nostr ist aufgrund des dezentralen Kuratierungsmodells noch komplexer. Die Inhalte werden nicht von einer zentralen Behörde moderiert, sondern durch eine Kombination aus relaisspezifischen Richtlinien und clientseitigen Kontrollen, wie z. B. benutzerdefinierte Listen für persönliche Kuratoren oder Sperr-/Stummschaltungsfunktionen. Dieser Ansatz fördert zwar die freie Meinungsäußerung und unterstützt eine Vielzahl von Standpunkten, kann aber auch zu uneinheitlichen Moderationsrichtlinien und fragmentierten Nutzererfahrungen auf verschiedenen Relays und Clients führen, was für die Nutzer eine erhebliche technische und verhaltensbezogene Belastung darstellt, wenn sie ihre digitalen Umgebungen kuratieren wollen.

5. Skalierbarkeit und Widerstandsfähigkeit gegen Zensur

Ein entscheidendes Merkmal des Nostr-Protokolls ist sein hohes Maß an Skalierbarkeit und Zensurresistenz, das durch seine verteilte, relaisbasierte Architektur erreicht wird. Durch die Dezentralisierung der Speicherung und Verbreitung von Inhalten auf zahlreiche unabhängige Relays entschärft Nostr die üblichen Schwachstellen zentralisierter sozialer Plattformen, wie z. B. Single Points of Failure oder das Potenzial für staatliche oder unternehmensgesteuerte Zensur. Mehrere Relays können gleichzeitig arbeiten, wodurch sichergestellt wird, dass die Stabilität des Netzwerks auch dann erhalten bleibt, wenn einige von ihnen vom Netz genommen werden oder behördlichem Druck ausgesetzt sind, und dass Inhalte für Kunden, die mit alternativen Relays verbunden sind, zugänglich bleiben.

Die Skalierbarkeit von Nostr wird dadurch verbessert, dass sich die Nutzenden gleichzeitig mit mehreren Relays verbinden können, was die Replikation von Inhalten über ein globales Netz von Servern ermöglicht, das sich über zahlreiche geografische Regionen und autonome Systeme erstreckt. Dieser Replikationsmechanismus bringt jedoch Herausforderungen mit sich, wie z. B. eine erhöhte Redundanz bei der Speicher- und Bandbreitennutzung, die eine sorgfältige Optimierung und die Entwicklung innovativer clientseitiger Strategien erfordern, um den Datenabruf zu verwalten und den Overhead zu reduzieren, ohne die Verfügbarkeit zu beeinträchtigen. Darüber hinaus trägt die Dezentralisierung der Zuständigkeiten für Kuratierung und Moderation zu einer dynamischen Umgebung bei, in der Inhalte sowohl gegen erzwungene Löschungen resistent als auch an die Bedürfnisse der Nutzer anpassbar sind, wenn auch auf Kosten von Einheitlichkeit und vorhersehbarer Nutzererfahrung.

6. Vergleich mit föderierten und zentralisierten Modellen

Das Aufkommen dezentraler Protokolle wie Nostr steht in scharfem Kontrast zu föderierten Netzwerken wie Mastodon, die das ActivityPub-Protokoll verwenden. Während föderierte Systeme die Kontrolle über unabhängige Instanzen verteilen, verlassen sie sich immer noch auf ein gewisses Maß an Zentralisierung auf der Ebene jeder einzelnen Instanz, von denen jede ihre eigenen Richtlinien bezüglich Moderation, Identitätsüberprüfung und Inhaltszensur durchsetzt. In diesen Systemen ist die Verwaltung zwar auf mehrere Knotenpunkte verteilt, aber es besteht eine Abhängigkeit von Serveradministratoren, die erhebliche Macht über den Inhalt und die Identität der Benutzer haben; dies steht im Gegensatz zu Nostrs vollständig kundenorientiertem Kurations- und Identitätsverwaltungsmodell, das darauf abzielt, jeden einzelnen Kontrollpunkt zu eliminieren.

In zentralisierten Architekturen werden Benutzerdaten und -identitäten auf proprietäre und undurchsichtige Weise verwaltet, wodurch Inhalte den Launen von Unternehmensrichtlinien und externem Druck ausgesetzt werden, was zu Überwachung, gezielter Zensur oder einseitiger algorithmischer Manipulation von Inhalten führen kann. Das Design von Nostr - das auf kryptografischer Authentifizierung, clientseitiger Datenaggregation und dem erlaubnisfreien Betrieb von Relay-Servern beruht - stellt eine radikale Abkehr dar, die das Gleichgewicht der Macht fest in die Hände der einzelnen Nutzer und nicht in die Hände zentraler Behörden legt.

7. Implikationen für Bildungsplattformen

Das Potenzial für die Integration des dezentralen Protokolls von Nostr in Bildungsplattformen bietet eine transformative Gelegenheit zur Unterstützung von Open Educational Practices (OEP). OEP legt den Schwerpunkt auf Inklusion, Autonomie der Lernenden, kollaborative Wissenserstellung und offenen Zugang zu Bildungsressourcen. Herkömmliche Bildungsplattformen sind oft durch zentralisierte Architekturen eingeschränkt, die den Zugang behindern und Innovationen unterdrücken können, da sie auf einzelne administrative Kontrollen und proprietäre Content-Management-Systeme angewiesen sind.

Durch die Nutzung der dezentralen Infrastruktur von Nostr können Bildungsplattformen aufgebaut werden, die es Lehrenden und Lernenden ermöglichen, die volle Kontrolle über ihre digitalen Identitäten und Bildungsinhalte zu behalten, ohne das Risiko von Zensur oder externer Einmischung. In solchen Systemen verwaltet jeder Teilnehmer seine eigene Identität mithilfe von kryptografischen Schlüsseln, wodurch sichergestellt wird, dass Bildungsleistungen, Beiträge und Zeugnisse auf überprüfbare und unveränderliche Weise aufgezeichnet werden. Dies fördert ein Umfeld, in dem die Schaffung und Verbreitung von Wissen wirklich von den Teilnehmern selbst bestimmt wird, frei von den Zwängen, die von zentralen Torwächtern auferlegt werden.

Darüber hinaus bietet die relaisbasierte Architektur von Nostr eine beispiellose Skalierbarkeit und Ausfallsicherheit - Eigenschaften, die für ein Bildungsökosystem, das eine Vielzahl von Nutzern mit unterschiedlichem geografischen und sozioökonomischen Hintergrund unterstützen muss, unerlässlich sind. Bildungsinhalte - von digitalen Lehrbüchern und Multimedia-Vorlesungen bis hin zu interaktiven Diskursen und gemeinschaftlichen Projekten - können gespeichert und über mehrere Relays repliziert werden, um sicherzustellen, dass der Zugang auch bei lokalen Netzwerkausfällen oder Zensurversuchen erhalten bleibt.

Das offene Protokoll von Nostr ist außerdem eine ideale Grundlage für die Entwicklung interoperabler Bildungsplattformen, auf denen Drittentwickler und Bildungseinrichtungen maßgeschneiderte Clients und Anwendungen für pädagogische Zwecke erstellen können. Dieser Ansatz fördert ein vielfältiges Ökosystem von Bildungswerkzeugen und -diensten, die nahtlos zusammenarbeiten, ohne auf eine einzige proprietäre Plattform beschränkt zu sein, und steht damit im Einklang mit dem Ethos des OEP. Pädagogen können digitale Lernumgebungen entwerfen, die die kollaborative Erstellung von Inhalten, Peer-Reviews und Community-gesteuerte Kuration unterstützen und gleichzeitig von der Sicherheit und Transparenz profitieren, die das kryptografische Grundgerüst von Nostr bietet.

Darüber hinaus gewährleistet die inhärente Zensurresistenz von Nostr, dass Bildungsinhalte zugänglich und frei von staatlichen oder unternehmerischen Eingriffen bleiben - ein besonders wichtiger Aspekt für Lernende in Regionen, in denen der Zugang zu Informationen eingeschränkt oder überwacht wird. Diese Widerstandsfähigkeit untermauert nicht nur die demokratische Verbreitung von Wissen, sondern unterstützt auch den Grundsatz eines digitalen Gemeinguts, bei dem Bildungsressourcen kollektiv verwaltet und gemeinsam genutzt werden. In diesem Zusammenhang kann Nostr genutzt werden, um Bildungsplattformen zu entwickeln, die nicht nur robust und integrativ sind, sondern auch auf die Bedürfnisse marginalisierter oder unterrepräsentierter Gemeinschaften abgestimmt sind.

Zusätzlich zu diesen strukturellen Vorteilen kann die finanzielle Nachhaltigkeit dezentraler Bildungsplattformen durch die Integration von auf Kryptowährungen basierenden Anreizmechanismen gestärkt werden - wie die Unterstützung von Nostr für Bitcoin Lightning "Zaps" zeigt. Diese Micropayment-Systeme eröffnen Möglichkeiten für neuartige Finanzierungsmodelle, die Pädagogen und Inhaltsersteller direkt belohnen und so die Abhängigkeit von werbebasierten Einnahmen oder zentralisierten Finanzierungsströmen verringern, die häufig die Integrität der Bildung gefährden. Solche wirtschaftlichen Anreize können auch den Betrieb und die Wartung von Relay-Servern unterstützen und so sicherstellen, dass die dezentrale Infrastruktur belastbar und kontinuierlich für Bildungszwecke verfügbar bleibt.

8. Möglichkeiten für kollaboratives und kultursensibles Lernen

Über die technische Stabilität und Skalierbarkeit hinaus bietet die dezentrale Natur von Nostr bedeutende Möglichkeiten zur Förderung von kollaborativem Lernen und kultursensibler Pädagogik. Dezentralisierte Bildungsplattformen, die auf Nostr aufbauen, können lokale Gemeinschaften in die Lage versetzen, Inhalte zu erstellen und zu kuratieren, die kontextuell relevant und kulturell angemessen sind - ein entscheidender Faktor bei der Förderung von Bildungsgerechtigkeit und Inklusivität. In Umgebungen, in denen Mainstream-Bildungstechnologien als von oben nach unten betrachtet werden und nicht mit lokalen Werten oder pädagogischen Ansätzen übereinstimmen, ermöglicht eine dezentralisierte Infrastruktur die Entwicklung maßgeschneiderter digitaler Lernumgebungen, die lokale Kulturen, Sprachen und Traditionen widerspiegeln.

Dieser gemeinschaftsorientierte Bildungsansatz fördert das Gefühl der Eigenverantwortung bei Lernenden und Lehrenden gleichermaßen und ermutigt zur gemeinschaftlichen Schaffung von Wissen, das unterschiedliche Erkenntnistheorien respektiert. So können Pädagogen beispielsweise dezentrale "Lernräume" einrichten, in denen Open-Source-Lernmaterialien, Werkzeuge für die digitale Kompetenz und innovative Lehrmethoden gemeinsam genutzt und durch partizipatives Engagement kontinuierlich weiterentwickelt werden. In einem solchen Modell verschwimmen die Grenzen zwischen Lernenden und Lehrenden, was einen fließenden Ideenaustausch und die gemeinsame Schaffung von Wissen ermöglicht, die im Mittelpunkt offener Bildungspraktiken stehen.

Darüber hinaus ermöglicht die Flexibilität der Client-zentrierten Architektur von Nostr die Entwicklung von spezialisierten Bildungsclients, die auf die jeweiligen Lernstile und Disziplinen zugeschnitten sind. Diese Clients könnten Funktionen wie erweiterte Such- und Filterfunktionen für Bildungsinhalte, integrierte Anmerkungswerkzeuge für die gemeinsame Bearbeitung von Dokumenten und interoperable Identitätsmanagementsysteme enthalten, die es den Lernenden ermöglichen, ihre Anmeldedaten nahtlos in verschiedene digitale Lernumgebungen zu übertragen. Solche Innovationen würden nicht nur die Rolle der Nutzerautonomie beim digitalen Lernen stärken, sondern auch die Entwicklung von Bildungsnetzwerken fördern, die belastbar und anpassungsfähig sind und auf die sich verändernden pädagogischen Herausforderungen reagieren können.

9. Herausforderungen und Abhilfestrategien

Trotz der vielversprechenden Möglichkeiten ist die Integration von Nostr in Bildungsplattformen nicht unproblematisch. Gerade die Funktionen, die den Nutzern mehr Möglichkeiten bieten - wie selbstverwaltete kryptografische Schlüssel und dezentralisierte Inhaltsmoderation - führen auch Komplexitäten ein, die die Benutzerfreundlichkeit und Zugänglichkeit behindern können, insbesondere für Personen ohne fortgeschrittene technische Kenntnisse. Die Schlüsselverwaltung stellt beispielsweise eine kritische Schwachstelle dar; der Verlust eines privaten Schlüssels führt unwiderruflich zum Verlust der Identität und des Zugriffs auf die eigenen digitalen Beiträge - ein Risiko, das durch solide Bildungsinitiativen und Mechanismen zur Unterstützung der Nutzer angegangen werden muss.

Die technische Kompetenz von Lehrenden und Lernenden ist in diesem Zusammenhang von größter Bedeutung und erfordert die Entwicklung umfassender Einführungsverfahren, benutzerfreundlicher Schnittstellen und Hilfsmittel, die kryptografische Konzepte entmystifizieren und die Interaktion mit dezentralen Netzwerken vereinfachen. Zu diesem Zweck könnte der Einsatz intuitiver Bildungsmodule, interaktiver Tutorials und von der Community geleiteter Schulungen technische Barrieren abbauen und gleichzeitig die Entwicklung digitaler Kompetenzen fördern, die für die Navigation in dezentralen Netzwerken unerlässlich sind. Darüber hinaus muss die Herausforderung einer inkonsistenten Moderation und fragmentierten Nutzererfahrung aufgrund der heterogenen Richtlinien unabhängiger Relais und Clients durch die Einrichtung von Community-Governance-Rahmenwerken und interoperablen Standards angegangen werden, die eine Grundlinie der Qualität und Sicherheit auf der gesamten Plattform gewährleisten.

Strategien zur Bewältigung des mit der Skalierbarkeit verbundenen Overheads - wie etwa die redundante Replikation von Beiträgen über eine übermäßige Anzahl von Relays - sollten sich auf die Implementierung clientseitiger Optimierungstechniken konzentrieren, die die Ineffizienz von Bandbreite und Speicherplatz verringern, ohne die Belastbarkeit und Zugänglichkeit des Netzwerks zu beeinträchtigen. Kontinuierliche Forschung und iterative Verfeinerung werden notwendig sein, um ein Gleichgewicht zwischen den Vorteilen der Dezentralisierung und der ihr innewohnenden betrieblichen Komplexität zu finden und sicherzustellen, dass auf Nostr basierende Bildungsplattformen sowohl robust als auch benutzerfreundlich bleiben können.

10. Zukünftige Richtungen und Forschungsmöglichkeiten

Die Einbindung von Nostr in Bildungsplattformen stellt ein fruchtbares Gebiet für Forschung und Entwicklung dar, das zahlreiche Möglichkeiten zur Erkundung bietet. Zukünftige Arbeiten könnten das Design interoperabler Bildungsrahmenwerke erforschen, die die dezentrale Architektur von Nostr mit aufkommenden Technologien wie künstlicher Intelligenz, Blockchain-basiertem Credentialing und fortschrittlichen kryptographischen Techniken integrieren, um die Sicherheit, Zugänglichkeit und Authentizität in digitalen Lernumgebungen weiter zu verbessern. Die Erforschung gemeinschaftsbasierter Governance-Modelle ist ebenfalls gerechtfertigt, da dezentrale Plattformen Mechanismen für die kollektive Entscheidungsfindung und Konfliktlösung erfordern, die mit den Grundsätzen einer offenen, partizipativen Bildung vereinbar sind.

Ein möglicher Weg ist die Entwicklung modularer, quelloffener Bildungs-Clients, die sich nahtlos mit verschiedenen Relais verbinden lassen und den Lehrkräften leistungsstarke Tools zur Kuratierung und Moderation von Inhalten bieten. Diese Clients könnten anpassbare Dashboards, Module für die Zusammenarbeit in Echtzeit und integrierte Unterstützung für Mikrozahlungen oder Anreizstrukturen bieten, um sicherzustellen, dass Bildungsinhalte sowohl dynamisch als auch finanziell nachhaltig bleiben. Darüber hinaus könnte die Einrichtung digitaler Identitätsrahmen, die auf den kryptografischen Prinzipien von Nostr aufbauen, zu innovativen Modellen für die Überprüfung akademischer Zeugnisse, die Verfolgung des Lernfortschritts und die Erleichterung der plattformübergreifenden Anerkennung von Bildungsleistungen führen, und das alles ohne die Aufsicht zentralisierter Registrierungsbehörden.

Die Schnittstelle zwischen digitaler Kompetenz und ethischer digitaler Bürgerschaft ist ein weiteres vielversprechendes Forschungsgebiet. In dem Maße, in dem Pädagogen dezentrale Bildungstechnologien in die Lehrpläne integrieren, wird es zwingend notwendig, Lehrmethoden zu entwickeln, die nicht nur technische Kenntnisse, sondern auch die kritischen und moralischen Fähigkeiten vermitteln, die für die Arbeit in einem dezentralen digitalen Ökosystem erforderlich sind. Solche pädagogischen Strategien sollten Schulungen zum Schlüsselmanagement, zur Verifizierung digitaler Identitäten und zum Verständnis der Kompromisse umfassen, die mit dezentralisierten und zentralisierten Technologiemodellen einhergehen, um den Schülern eine ausgewogene Perspektive auf digitale Rechte, Verantwortlichkeiten und Möglichkeiten zu vermitteln.

Die Zusammenarbeit zwischen akademischen Institutionen, Open-Source-Gemeinschaften und Innovatoren dezentraler Technologien wird entscheidend sein, um diese Forschungsagenden voranzutreiben und die Entwicklung von Bildungslabors und Pilotprojekten zu fördern, die die praktischen Auswirkungen und Vorteile dezentraler Bildungsplattformen auf der Grundlage von Nostr erforschen. Solche Initiativen könnten als lebende Laboratorien zum Testen neuer Werkzeuge, Methoden und Governance-Strategien dienen, mit dem Ziel, das Gleichgewicht zwischen dem Versprechen der Dezentralisierung und ihren praktischen Herausforderungen schrittweise zu verfeinern.

11. Schlußfolgerung

Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass Nostr eine bahnbrechende Entwicklung in der Architektur sozialer Medien darstellt, die die Beziehung zwischen Nutzern, Inhalten und Netzwerkinfrastruktur durch ein dezentralisiertes, kryptographisch gesichertes und klientenzentriertes Modell neu definiert. Das relaisbasierte Design, die dezentrale Identitätsverwaltung und die offene Architektur bieten erhebliche Vorteile gegenüber herkömmlichen zentralisierten und föderierten Systemen in Bezug auf Zensurresistenz, Skalierbarkeit und Benutzerautonomie. Diese technischen Innovationen haben weitreichende Auswirkungen auf die Entwicklung von Bildungsplattformen, die den Grundsätzen der Open Educational Practices entsprechen. Durch die Unterstützung von nutzergesteuerten Identitäten, stabiler Replikation von Inhalten und gemeinschaftsgesteuerter Verwaltung bietet Nostr eine Infrastruktur für dezentrale Bildungsökosysteme, die Inklusion, Zusammenarbeit und kontinuierliche Innovation fördern.

Der Einsatz von Nostr in Bildungskontexten verspricht, Lernende und Lehrende in die Lage zu versetzen, Bildungsinhalte frei von zentralisierten Einschränkungen und externer Zensur zu erstellen, zu teilen und gemeinschaftlich weiterzuentwickeln. Gleichzeitig erfordern die Herausforderungen, die mit der technischen Komplexität, der Schlüsselverwaltung und der inkonsistenten Moderation verbunden sind, kontinuierliche Forschung und die Entwicklung unterstützender Werkzeuge. Wenn diese Probleme durch gezielte Maßnahmen wie benutzerfreundliche Schnittstellen, umfassende Programme für digitale Kompetenz und gemeinschaftsbasierte Governance-Modelle angegangen werden, können die Beteiligten das volle Potenzial von Nostr nutzen, um dezentrale, offene und partizipative Bildungsplattformen zu schaffen, die den Geist von Open Educational Practices wirklich verkörpern.

Letztendlich stellt die Integration von Nostr in dezentralisierte Bildungsplattformen nicht nur eine technische Entwicklung dar, sondern auch einen gesellschaftspolitischen Wandel hin zu größerer Dezentralisierung, Ermächtigung der Nutzer und digitaler Souveränität. Diese Ausrichtung an den Werten des OEP definiert nicht nur die Verbreitung und den Konsum von Bildungsinhalten neu, sondern ist auch Katalysator für breitere Diskussionen über digitale Rechte, Inklusion und ethische Teilhabe an der digitalen Allmende. Das Potenzial solcher Plattformen, kontextrelevante, zensurresistente und kollaborativ kuratierte Bildungsressourcen bereitzustellen, ist ein entscheidender Schritt, um die Zukunft der digitalen Bildung neu zu gestalten.

Fazit

Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass die innovative Architektur von Nostr, die auf einer kryptografischen Schlüsselverwaltung und dezentralen Relay-Netzwerken basiert, den Grundstein für eine neue Generation von Bildungsplattformen legt, die die Einschränkungen zentralisierter Systeme überwinden können. Ihre Fähigkeit, belastbare, sichere und nutzerzentrierte digitale Umgebungen bereitzustellen, steht in perfektem Einklang mit den Grundsätzen offener Bildungspraktiken und bietet Lehrenden und Lernenden eine noch nie dagewesene Kontrolle über ihre digitalen Interaktionen und Inhalte. Kontinuierliche Forschung, interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit und gezielte Bildungsinitiativen werden unerlässlich sein, um dieses Potenzial voll auszuschöpfen und sicherzustellen, dass die Vorteile der Dezentralisierung allen Mitgliedern der Bildungsgemeinschaft zugänglich sind.

Durch den strategischen Einsatz von Nostr-basierten Bildungsplattformen kann die Zukunft des Lernens als ein Bereich neu konzipiert werden, in dem offener Zugang, Autonomie der Lernenden und gemeinschaftsgesteuerte Wissensbildung nicht nur möglich, sondern unvermeidlich sind - eine Zukunft, in der dezentrale Infrastrukturen eine gerechtere, transparentere und partizipativere digitale Bildungslandschaft ermöglichen.

Dieser Beitrag hat daher eine ausführliche Einführung in die technischen und konzeptionellen Grundlagen von Nostr gegeben, die Mechanismen beschrieben, mit denen Nostr Dezentralisierung und Zensurresistenz erreicht, und seine bedeutenden Auswirkungen auf die Zukunft von Bildungsplattformen im Rahmen von Open Educational Practices untersucht. Die Synergie zwischen dem dezentralen Paradigma von Nostr und dem demokratischen, inklusiven Ethos von OEP birgt ein transformatives Versprechen für die Neugestaltung der digitalen Bildung in einer Weise, die Offenheit, Sicherheit und lebenslanges Lernen für eine globale Gemeinschaft fördert.

Indem sie aufkommende dezentralisierte Protokolle wie Nostr als grundlegende Infrastrukturkomponenten von Bildungsplattformen nutzen, können Stakeholder eine ganzheitliche digitale Transformation vorantreiben, die Technologie, Pädagogik und Ethik vereint und ein Paradigma einführt, in dem Bildungsgerechtigkeit und digitale Selbstbestimmung keine Wünsche, sondern realisierte Prinzipien unserer vernetzten Gesellschaft sind.

I know most of you aren't doing this but I hope this is helpful when talking to your friends and family about bitcoin. Specifically if they bring up Orange Man or have real issues with him.

First off we can see that most of the MAGA / Political Bitcoin cheer-leading is exclusively SoV/NGU and not freedom money. Its basically the crypto types. The shitcoiners. The scammers. I get why this will turn off people that don't love the orange man. I recently heard a technical podcaster say he didn't like being associated with bitcoin (though he said crypto and his co-host is a bitcoin only guy...). I'm here to tell you that's dumb.

Why? I know how dumb it is by experience. Back in the day I was a kid listening to Rush Limbaugh and he was destroying the sky is falling claims I was hearing in government schools. I used to come home freaking out about global warming and the destruction of the rain forests. This was in the 90s btw. Looking back on what Limbaugh said, he's been proven largely right. But that isn't my point. My point is that because of this and because of how dumb many of the environmentalists takes were, I ignored many environmental issues. I would turn off people that called themselves environmentalists. This was a mistake. I was ignoring many other problems with how we use resources and used weak reasoning on others. I seeded caring for the environment to the left. I let myself be sidelined by reactionary thinking.

A few years ago I learned about the Permaculture[^1] way of thinking and it kinda blew my mind. A guy named Jack Spirko said something that stuck with me. Everyone should be an environmentalist. At least to the extent that they care about the planet we all share. Of course we all know this but it flipped a switch in my head. I'd allowed myself to be a reactionary on the environment and harm humans do to the air, water, and soil as well as the creatures. I always cared about these things but it too a dude that I aligned with on many topics to snap me out of my programming.

I think a similar thing can happen with Bitcoin. Don't be reactionary. Just because some people you don't align with or like do like a thing... it doesn't mean that thing is bad. They could be representing it incorrectly. Bitcoin, if it truly is money is apolitical. Now, we can get into economics and dive into the deep end about hard money but the fact is that bitcoin shouldn't really be political in the sense of US politics on the ground. If you are just a voter or pleb you should be adopting bitcoin no matter what any politician says. The republicans and democrats are not that different on many topics and the MAGA movement is just pandering. Don't let the Orange Man turn you off from bitcoin. Don't let the number go up people turn you off. There are people living under oppressive regimes all over the globe that can be helped by bitcoin. We may need it in the US. Don't sleep on this because of a clown. Don't be dumb. Its a great way to stay poor and vulnerable.

Why did Elon buy twitter for $44 Billion? What value does he see in it besides the greater influence that undoubtedly comes with controlling one of the largest social platforms in the world? We do not need to speculate - he made his intentions incredibly clear in his first meeting with twitter employees after his takeover - WeChat of the West.

To those that do not appreciate freedom, the value prop is clear - WeChat is incredibly powerful and successful in China.

To those that do appreciate freedom, the concern is clear - WeChat has essentially become required to live in China, has surveillance and censorship integrated at its core, and if you are banned from the app your entire livelihood is at risk. Employment, housing, payments, travel, communication, and more become extremely difficult if WeChat censors determine you have acted out of line.

The blue check is the first step in Elon's plan to bring the chinese social credit score system to the west. Users who verify their identity are rewarded with more reach and better tools than those that do not. Verified users are the main product of Elon's twitter - an extensive database of individuals and complete control of the tools he will slowly get them to rely on - it is easier to monetize cattle than free men.

If you cannot resist the temptation of the blue check in its current form you have already lost - what comes next will be much darker. If you realize the need to resist - freedom tech provides us options.

SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce Speaks On Privacy And Permissionlessness At PubKey

Yesterday, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce sat down for a fireside chat with NYDIG founder Ross Stevens at New York City’s Bitcoin-themed bar PubKey.

The two traversed a number of topics during their discussion, including why it’s important that the world has a permissionless network and asset like Bitcoin as well as why transactional privacy should be a right for U.S. citizens.

Peirce didn’t mince words during the discussion, yet she also spoke with nuance and thoughtfulness as she responded to questions from not only Stevens but from members of the audience during a Q&A session, as well.

On Permissionlessness

Toward the onset of the talk, Peirce highlighted the fact that Bitcoin is a tool for freedom fighters as part of a broader theme of why it’s crucial that permissionless technology like Bitcoin exists.

She said that she often thinks about what it would have been like if someone like Harriet Tubman had had Bitcoin.

Stevens then posed a question about the risk of a situation in which a U.S. president issues an executive order that authorizes the government to confiscate U.S. citizens’ bitcoin, like the way Executive Order 6102 enabled the government to seize U.S. citizens’ gold in 1933.

Peirce admitted that “it’s still possible for an Executive Order like 6102 to happen in the U.S.,” and made the case that it’s up to us to remain vigilant so as not to permit something like this to happen again.

“To protect ourselves from something like Executive Order 6102, we must reaffirm the founding principles of America and hold the government accountable to those principles,” said the commissioner.

Stevens added that some of Bitcoin’s qualities, such as the ability to store one’s seed phrase in one’s mind, make it more resistant to seizure than gold and, therefore, a better freedom-preserving technology. (The topic of owning actual bitcoin, or holding one’s own bitcoin private keys, as a means of embracing the true nature of Bitcoin as a permissionless technology versus having bitcoin exposure via spot bitcoin ETFs or through custodians arose at many points in the discussion.)

Further along in the discussion, Peirce stressed the importance of the U.S. government continuing to view code as speech, a topic that Stevens brought up and has written extensively about.

“It’s important as regulators for us to treat code as speech,” began Peirce.

“Otherwise, developers would have to check their code with the government before publishing it,” she added, before also noting that developers having to do this could stifle and undermine their ability to publish open-source software.

On Privacy

Halfway through the talk, Stevens asked Peirce if Americans should be free to use crypto mixers.

Before directly commenting on the matter, Peirce spoke more broadly to the concept of financial privacy and that it seems to be of little concern to most U.S. citizens.

“It’s remarkable to me how little people care about financial privacy,” said Peirce. “It’s very personal how you spend your money — and we’ve ceded so much privacy.”

Regarding crypto mixers more specifically, Peirce stated that she believes Americans have a right to use such technology.

“There’s supposed to be a presumption of innocence in this country,” she said. “Technologies that allow you to do things on chain but also allow you to preserve privacy are really important.”

At the beginning of the Q&A portion of the event, Thomas Pacchia, the bar’s owner, highlighted the dangers of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) in that it mandates that users turn over significant amounts of personal data to financial institutions and asked what the odds were of one day seeing the act repealed.

Peirce agreed with Pacchia that there is great risk in financial institutions holding so much of their customers’ data but pointed out that the idea of repealing the BSA is a point of deep contention in Washington, D.C.

“Really bad things can happen if a centralized financial institution has a lot of information about you, but it’s such a third rail in D.C. to talk about the Bank Secrecy Act because of the fear that bad actors will rush in,” said Peirce.

Listening Intently

Peirce has stated a number of times, most recently at Bitcoin 2025, that she believes that the U.S. government works for the American people.

It’s clear that this isn’t just hot air or a talking point, as evidenced by how carefully she listens to the questions posed to her and how thoughtful her responses to said questions are.

For example, I asked Commissioner Peirce if there was any chance we might eventually see in-kind redemptions for the spot bitcoin ETFs for retail investors.

While she admitted that it’s “unlikely,” she offered me some space to make my case for why they’re important and concluded the exchange with me by stating that she’d “give it some more thought.”

She responded to Stevens and to each member of the audience who posed a question with the same type of care and consideration, which seemed to be appreciated as she broached topics as sensitive as having the legal right to hold one’s Bitcoin keys and to transact with bitcoin privately.

Peirce also seemed genuinely concerned about making sure that regulators don’t get in the way of Bitcoin and crypto fulfilling their promise as both freedom technology and an alternative to the traditional financial and monetary systems.

“I’m concerned that we’ll stunt growth if we do things the wrong way,” Peirce concluded, eliciting a warm round of applause from the Bitcoin enthusiasts in attendance.

Nukleáris politika és szabályozási fejlemények

A Nemzetközi Atomenergia-ügynökség (IAEA) Kormányzótanácsa 2025. június 9-én kezdi meg szokásos júniusi ülését Bécsben. A főbb napirendi pontok között szerepel a 2024-es éves jelentés, a technikai együttműködési tevékenységek, az iráni ellenőrzés és felügyelet, az ellenőrzések végrehajtása Észak-Koreában és Szíriában, a nukleáris biztonság és védelem Ukrajnában, valamint a nukleáris anyagok átruházása és ellenőrzése az AUKUS-keretében. Az ülésen új tagokat is kijelölnek a Kormányzótanácsba, és előkészítik a 69. rendes közgyűlést[iaea.org].

Jelentős projektek és iparági bővülés

Az amerikai Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) benyújtotta kérelmét az Egyesült Államok Nukleáris Szabályozási Bizottságához egy GE Vernova Hitachi BWRX-300 kis moduláris reaktor (SMR) megépítésére a Clinch River telephelyen, ami jelentős lépés az amerikai fejlett nukleáris technológiák elterjesztésében[world-nuclear-news.org]. Kanadában a hatóság engedélyezte az Ontario Power Generation számára, hogy egy BWRX-300 reaktort építsen a Darlington New Nuclear Project helyszínen, ezzel tovább haladva az észak-amerikai SMR-projektek terén[world-nuclear-news.org].

India nukleáris szabályozója jóváhagyta a négyblokkos Mahi Banswara Rajasthan Atomerőmű telephelyét, Kínában pedig folytatódnak a szerelési munkák a Haiyang 3 egységen. Eközben Belgium és Dánia felülvizsgálják nukleáris politikájukat: Belgium visszavonja a korábbi leállítási döntést, Dánia pedig újragondolja álláspontját[world-nuclear-news.org].

Ellátási lánc, munkaerő és nemzetközi együttműködés

A nukleáris kapacitás várható gyors növekedése miatt egyre nagyobb hangsúly kerül mind a helyi, mind a globális ellátási lánc felkészítésére. A World Nuclear Association legutóbbi konferenciája kiemelte az ellátási lánc „globalizációjának” fontosságát a bővülés támogatásához[world-nuclear-news.org]. A nukleáris munkaerő világszerte növekedni fog, ami új lehetőségeket teremt, nem pedig hiányt. Az iparági szakértők hangsúlyozzák a jelentkezők tapasztalatának javítását és a szektorok közötti készségek hasznosítását a jövőbeni igények kielégítésére[world-nuclear-news.org].

A nemzetközi szabályozói együttműködés is fejlődik, különösen a kis moduláris reaktorok (SMR) tervezési értékelése terén. A brit Nukleáris Szabályozási Hivatal közzétette első jelentését ebben a témában, globális szinten hatékonyabb és összehangoltabb megközelítést célozva[world-nuclear-news.org].

Gazdasági és befektetési trendek

A nukleáris szektorban újra optimizmus tapasztalható, egészséges projektportfóliókkal és növekvő magánbefektetésekkel, különösen a fejlett üzemanyagok, például a HALEU (magas dúsítású urán) terén. A Világbank lehetséges politikai váltása, amely lehetővé tenné nukleáris projektek finanszírozását, jelentős hatással lehet a globális befektetésekre, példát mutatva más hitelezőknek is[ans.org].

Az USA-ban jelentős lépés a Prohibiting Russian Uranium Imports Act életbe lépése, amely megtiltja a feldolgozatlan, alacsony dúsítású orosz urán behozatalát, és 2,72 milliárd dollár szövetségi támogatást szabadít fel a hazai urántermelés fellendítésére. A törvény 2027-ig korlátozott mentességeket engedélyez, 2040-ben pedig lejár[ans.org].

Technológia és innováció

A TerraPower hivatalosan is jelezte a brit hatóságoknak, hogy megkezdi a Natrium nátrium-hűtésű gyorsreaktor általános tervezési engedélyezési folyamatát, ezzel jelezve, hogy a vállalat nemzetközi szinten is be kívánja vezetni ezt a technológiát[world-nuclear-news.org]. Olaszországban új nemzeti bizottság alakult a radioaktív anyagok szállításával kapcsolatos kihívások kezelésére, a megfelelőség és a logisztika egyszerűsítése érdekében[world-nuclear-news.org].

Az Enel, az Ansaldo Energia és a Leonardo megalapította a Nuclitalia céget, hogy tanulmányozza a fejlett nukleáris technológiákat és elemezze a piaci lehetőségeket, ami jól mutatja az európai érdeklődés növekedését a következő generációs nukleáris megoldások iránt[world-nuclear-news.org].

Friss és közelgő események

• Az IAEA Kormányzótanácsának ülése (2025. június 9–13.) számos politikai, biztonsági és védelmi kérdéssel foglalkozik majd[iaea.org].
• Az amerikai Fehér Ház nemrégiben csúcstalálkozót tartott a hazai nukleáris fejlesztésekről, és elindította a legnagyobb szövetségi kezdeményezést az elmúlt ötven évben a hálózati méretű nukleáris reaktorok felgyorsított építésére[ans.org].

Michael Saylor’s Strategy Announces Initial Public Offering of 2,500,000 STRD Shares

Today, Strategy (Nasdaq: MSTR; STRK; STRF) has announced that it plans to conduct an initial public offering of 2,500,000 STRD shares of Strategy’s 10.00% Series A Perpetual Stride Preferred Stock. 

JUST IN: Michael Saylor's Strategy announces Initial Public Offering of STRD stock to raise more money to buy #Bitcoin pic.twitter.com/ow29eNaW89

— Bitcoin Magazine (@BitcoinMagazine) June 2, 2025

“Strategy intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of bitcoin and for working capital,“ stated the company in the announcement.

The STRD Stock will offer non-cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of 10 percent, paid quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning on September 30, 2025. If dividends are not declared, they will not accumulate, and Strategy says it is not required to make up for missed payments.

Strategy may be able to redeem all outstanding STRD shares if the total number falls below 25 percent of the original issuance or if certain tax events occur. In such cases, holders will receive the liquidation preference of $100 per share plus any declared and unpaid dividends.

The company stated, “if an event that constitutes a “fundamental change” under the certificate of designations governing the STRD Stock occurs, then, holders of the STRD Stock will have the right to require Strategy to repurchase some or all of their shares of STRD Stock at a cash repurchase price equal to the stated amount of the STRD Stock to be repurchased, plus declared and unpaid regular dividends, if any, that will have accrued to, but excluding the fundamental change repurchase date.”

Also today, Strategy (MSTR) acquired another 705 Bitcoin for about $75 million, further expanding its position as the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin as more public companies continue to adopt Bitcoin treasury strategies.

Perfectionism wears many disguises—high standards, ambition, responsibility—but at its core, it’s a fear of not being enough. It convinces us that worth is earned by flawless performance, constant output, and meeting every expectation. But perfection is a prison, and real freedom begins when we choose progress over pressure.

The Weight of Perfection

Perfectionism doesn't protect us—it paralyzes us. It:

Delays action out of fear of mistakes

Fuels anxiety, self-criticism, and burnout

Makes success feel fleeting, because nothing ever feels "good enough"

Creates a cycle of comparison and shame

Why We Chase Perfect

Many of us were taught that being excellent = being lovable. So we equate flaws with failure. But chasing perfect is like running a race with no finish line—you’re never allowed to rest, celebrate, or simply be.

Signs You’re Caught in the Trap

You procrastinate because you’re afraid to do it “wrong”

You obsess over details at the expense of joy or time

You struggle to feel proud—even when you achieve something

You avoid trying new things unless you’re sure you’ll succeed

Breaking Free from the Illusion

1. Redefine Success: Replace “perfect” with “done is better than perfect.” Focus on growth.

2. Celebrate Small Wins: Let progress be enough. Every step forward counts.

3. Welcome Mistakes: They are proof you’re learning, growing, and showing up.

4. Be Gentle with Yourself: Speak to yourself like someone you love.

5. Let Real Be Enough: Authenticity is far more powerful than polish.

Why It Matters

Perfectionism may look like strength, but vulnerability is where our real power lies. When we let go of needing to be perfect, we finally become free to be real—to take risks, make art, love fully, and live without constant self-editing.

---

“You don't have to be perfect to be worthy. You just have to be you.”

Choose progress. Show up imperfectly. That’s where freedom lives.

A new investment vehicle combines exposure to Bitcoin with downside protection based on the price of gold.

On May 29, Cantor Fitzgerald Asset Management announced the launch of an investment product that merges direct exposure to Bitcoin with a bearish hedge linked to gold.

According to the financial institution, the new fund offers a solution for investors seeking to benefit from the growth potential of the leading cryptocurrency while maintaining a safety net tied to the precious metal.

Fund features

The fund is structured with a five-year term and no cap on potential upside, allowing investors to fully capture Bitcoin’s growth. The “1-to-1” protection mechanism means that any losses on Bitcoin would be offset by corresponding gains from gold.

Brandon Lutnick, Chairman of Cantor and son of former CEO Howard Lutnick (now Commerce Secretary in the Trump administration), called the product “a truly revolutionary investment vehicle” that helps investors access Bitcoin’s potential while providing downside protection. “There are still people on the Earth that are still scared of Bitcoin, and we want to bring them into this ecosystem,” Lutnick added.

The fund marks Cantor Fitzgerald’s first BTC-focused investment product. The firm, with 79 years of history and $14.8 billion in assets under management, is making its first significant move into the Bitcoin market.

The announcement follows the closing of its first round of financing agreements with Maple Finance and FalconX. Through its “Bitcoin Financing Business” division, Cantor plans to initially make up to $2 billion in financing available to institutional clients.

Contexto

En el Grupo de Teoría y Simulación en Materia Blanda estudiamos sistemas poliméricos, interfaces y sistemas coloidales a escala nanoscópica. Estos pueden estar en equilibrio o presentar flujo de partículas o calor y son de interés en ciencia básica y aplicada en campos como micro y nano-fluídica, aplicaciones a transferencia de calor y máquinas moleculares. Una característica central es que la temperatura juega un rol importante y existe una competencia entre entropía y energía. Esto suele dar lugar a transiciones de fases u otros cambios cualitativos del comportamiento del sistema.

Herramientas

Usamos simulación computacional y herramientas teóricas, con énfasis en conceptos de mecánica estadística, que permiten estudiar variados sistemas en diferentes situaciones físicas. Estudiamos a estos sistemas en condiciones de equilibrio termodinámico o también cómo es su comportamiento cuando se inducen flujos o se los somete a campos externos. (fuera de equilibrio)

Proponemos el siguiente tema de Tesis de Licenciatura en física

Simulación de transferencia de calor en nanocanales con paredes modificadas por polímeros

Izquierda: Nano- con una interfaz líquido vapor canal y un flujo estacionario de calor, provocado por la diferencia de temperatura de las paredes. Derecha: Puente de líquido inducido por la presencia de polímeros semi-flexibles. Ambas imágenes obtenidas de simulaciones de dinámica molecular.

Los fenómenos de transferencia de calor tienen una gran importancia en un amplísimo rango de aplicaciones como los procesos de generación y conversión de energía y son cruciales para el enfriamiento de motores y dispositivos electrónicos. Estas aplicaciones requerirán en el futuro un funcionamiento a mayor densidad de energía, y por lo tanto, mayor generación de calor, que deberá ser removido más eficientemente. En particular, los fenómenos de cambio de fases, como la ebullición nucleada, tienen aplicaciones en plantas de potencia eléctrica, desalinización térmica, enfriamiento de chips electrónicos y recuperación de calor desechado, entre muchas otras. Uno de los desafíos más importantes para continuar la reducción de tamaño de los dispositivos electrónicos es aumentar su densidad de potencia de operación y para ello se debe lograr una extracción eficiente del calor generado. La transferencia de calor es relevante también en aplicaciones a escalas espaciales mayores, como en la generación de energía eléctrica en centrales térmicas y nucleares. En las centrales nucleares de generación IV es necesario aumentar el calor transportado por unidad de tiempo y mejorar la eficiencia de los intercambiadores de calor. Estos procesos de transporte térmico distan de comprenderse a nivel básico, porque tienen una gran complejidad en tanto que son fenómenos fuera de equilibrio con cambios de fases.

Se propone estudiar la transferencia de calor en un nanocanal que presenta una interfaz líquido-vapor.
Estudiaremos los detalles de cómo cambian con el tiempo las características de la evaporación de una interfaz y las propiedades térmicas cuando se modifica la pared con polímeros u otras moléculas en el seno del líquido. Analizaremos también la rectificación del flujo de calor, pensando al nano-canal como un diodo térmico. Realizaremos simulaciones de dinámica molecular en clusters de supercómputo para estudiar estos sistemas en distintas condiciones físicas. Si tienen interés en tener más detalles, no duden en contactarnos.

Michael Saylor, executive chairman of Strategy, has stirred up the Bitcoin community with his recent comments on proof-of-reserves, calling it a “bad idea” that puts institutional security at risk.

Speaking at a side event at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas, Saylor expressed strong concerns about the security implications of on-chain proof of reserves (PoR), a method used by many bitcoin companies to show they actually hold the assets they claim.

“The conventional way of issuing proof of reserves today is actually insecure,” Saylor said.

“It actually dilutes the security of the issuer, the custodians, the exchanges and the investors. It’s not a good idea, it’s a bad idea.”

Proof-of-reserves is a process where companies with bitcoin reserves share public wallet addresses or use cryptographic methods to prove how much bitcoin they hold.

This practice gained popularity after the collapse of major exchanges like FTX and Mt. Gox to build trust through transparency.

Many big players in the digital asset space, including Binance, Kraken, OKX and asset manager Bitwise, have adopted PoR to reassure users and stakeholders.

Related: Bitwise Announces On-Chain Address, Donations Go to Shareholders

Saylor’s objections boil down to two main points.

First, he believes publishing wallet addresses creates serious security risks. By exposing institutional wallet structures, companies may open themselves up to attacks from hackers, hostile governments or malicious actors.

“[It’s like] publishing the address and the bank accounts of all your kids and the phone numbers of all your kids and then thinking somehow that makes your family better,” Saylor said.

“(It becomes) an attack vector for hackers, nation-state actors, every type of troll imaginable.”

He even asked the audience to try a thought experiment:

“Go to AI, put it in deep think mode and then ask it ‘what are the security problems of publishing your wallet addresses?’ and ‘how might it undermine the security of your company over time’ … It will write you a book. It will be fifty pages of security problems.”

Second, Saylor pointed out that proof of reserves only shows what a company owns, not what it owes. In his view, that’s incomplete.

“It’s proof of assets that is insecure, and it is not proof of liabilities… So you own $63 billion worth of bitcoin—do you have a hundred billion dollars of liabilities?” he asked rhetorically.

For large institutions and investors, this view of financial health is not enough.

Instead of publishing wallet addresses, Saylor thinks the better approach is to use institutional-grade audits by trusted firms.

“The best practice… would be to have a Big Four auditor that checks to make sure you actually have the bitcoin, then checks to make sure the company hasn’t rehypothecated or pledged the bitcoin,” he said.

“Then you have to wash it through a public company where the CFO signs, then the CEO signs, then the chairman and all the outside directors are civilly and criminally liable for it.”

He believes the legal consequences of corporate auditing — including prison time for fraud under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act — are stronger than cryptographic proof alone.

He did admit that a more secure, future version of PoR might be possible if it involved zero-knowledge proofs that protect wallet privacy while still confirming ownership.

Not everyone agrees with Saylor’s opinion. While some praised his focus on security, others accused Saylor of hiding something.

Speculations resurfaced about whether Strategy truly holds all the bitcoin it claims, or if it’s involved in so-called “paper bitcoin” — claims to BTC without physical backing.

Others pointed out that exchanges like Kraken and asset managers like Bitwise have implemented PoR systems without major breaches.

The last Empire: the Final Days of the Soviet Union

Serhii Plokhy clearly writes from a Ukrainian perspective, but at no point does he allow his bias to interfere with an extensive and compelling documentation, filled with transcripts and official documents from both the Soviet and American sides—documents involving actors who transitioned from the final days of the Soviet Union to the formation of the new Russian Federation.

I discovered this book through a Lex Fridman podcast, where the author gives a review of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, explaining in rich detail the events experienced between both nations. I won’t say that what’s happening in this region is easy to understand, and yet, after reading this book, I have no doubt that all of this was foreseeable.

Here are some things I’ve learned from the book—without giving away spoilers or going too deep:

The United States opposed the disintegration of the Soviet Union until the very last hours

Contrary to popular belief and Reagan’s lofty slogans about the Evil Empire, the advisers of President George H. W. Bush—except for Dick Cheney and his inner circle—were against the dissolution and extinction of the Soviet Union. There were two simple reasons: nuclear power and nationalism.

Over the years, the USSR produced tons of nuclear arsenal, and if the country were to dissolve, advisers on both sides predicted a “nuclear Yugoslavia,” referring to the imminent conflicts in that region. The other reason was strategic: it’s easier to deal with one large country than with many separate republics sharing similar ethnic backgrounds. After reading this book, the Balkan Wars seem even more closely tied to the consequences of the Soviet breakup. You’ll draw your own conclusions when you read it.

The Cold War is in pause mode

In some movie I once heard the phrase, The war doesn’t end until both sides declare it over; while it’s true that Gorbachev resigned on December 25 and made way for the Russian Federation, he never officially ended the geopolitical maneuvers. Meanwhile, George Bush gave a speech declaring that they had “won the Cold War.”

Anyway. Have you read anything similar to this?

Forget Lambos, Bitcoin's going corporate.

Sixty one publicly listed companies now hold over 3% of Bitcoin's total supply, doubling their holdings in just two months. That's faster than even Michael Saylor's MicroStrategy. K Wave Media, a South Korean firm, is raising $500M for a Bitcoin treasury, aiming to be the "Metaplanet of Korea." Even Pakistan is discussing Bitcoin reserve plans with Trump's crypto team.

Is your portfolio ready for the corporate Bitcoin takeover?

It is hard going through difficult situations. Health problems, family problems, financial problems, feeling alone, feeling stuck in the wrong place, and persecution are all situations that Christians regularly find themselves. The question is “How will we respond to pain?”

Advice for the Suffering

Some Christians pull away from God when it feels like everything is going wrong. They think God doesn’t care or can’t fix things. They resent every minute of pain and accuse God of wrongdoing. Even Job, who fell on his face in worship after losing everything had a moment of weakness.

“Oh that my grief were actually weighed\ And laid in the balances together with my calamity!\ For then it would be heavier than the sand of the seas;\ Therefore my words have been rash.” (Job 6:2-3) {emphasis mine}

After a moment of doubt, he did, however, repent of his rash words, as should we all.

Job should be an example to us all in dealing with pain and difficult situations. This is the verse that inspired this post.

But it is still my consolation,\ And I rejoice in unsparing pain,\ That I have not denied the words of the Holy One. \ (Job 6:10) {emphasis mine}

What an example! “I rejoice in unsparing pain.” When we trust God so much that we can rejoice in unsparing pain, we are trusting God as we should. We are accepting that God is working good in our life and we can trust Him even when nothing makes sense to us.

I also love how he says that his consolation is that “I have not denied the words of the Holy One.” Job is hurting terribly. His heart is broken. He is destitute. He lost 8 children in one day. His friends, that came to console him, have instead accused him of wrongdoing. He doesn’t understand what God is doing and why, but he has “NOT denied the words of the Holy One.” He is still putting his faith in God and his word. He is still submitting to God when he feels mistreated. He is still trusting \ God, even when he doesn’t understand what God is doing and why so many bad things are raining down on him in a torrent. Despite it all, he refuses to deny God. I hope if I am ever put through similar situations, that I can trust God and not deny His goodness.

Advice for friends

The book of Job, in addition to advice to those who are suffering, also gives advice to friends of those who are suffering. (or maybe more accurately, what not to do)

Job’s friends came with the intention to encourage and console Job. Every time Job would confess his thoughts, concerns, and questions, the response by his friends would get harsher and harsher. In the beginning they were gentle corrections, but they quickly escalated to accusing Job of great sins, that they had to know were not true, and blaming Job for every hard thing that had happened to him.

I’ve talked to other Christians who have confessed to being dragged down by other Christians who would tell them that every difficult thing that happened to them was due to their sin or lack of faith. In the case of Job, his difficulties were due to his faithfulness, in order to prove to Satan and all of history that a faithful man would stay faithful to God in good times and in bad.

Can Christians suffer as a consequence of sins and poor decisions? Of course, but there are many times that the faithful suffer. In Scripture, the people who suffered most were frequently the most faithful.

Job’s correction of his friends was accurate.

“For the despairing man there should be kindness from his friend;\ So that he does not forsake the fear of the Almighty.\ My brothers have acted deceitfully like a wadi,\ Like the torrents of wadis which vanish, (Job 6:14-15)

For those who don’t know, a wadi is a streambed that has water running in the wet season, but is bone dry during the dry season. Job accused his friends of being encouraging and helpful when he was prospering, then showing up and providing no encouragement or help when he needed it most. He thought refreshment was coming to visit, and instead what hope he had left was drained from him by his “friends.”

We need to make sure we aren’t one of those who decreases hope and decreases faith in one who is hurting. We need to have mercy when a hurting person works through their confusion and doubts and help lead them back to God instead of driving a wedge between them and God.

May the God of heaven protect us and lead us through the trials of life and may our trials lead us into the arms of our Savior. May God help us to merciful and to help guide the hurting into the Savior’s care.

TRX网络USDT在华人地下跨境犯罪经济中的作用研究

引言

华人主导的跨境地下犯罪经济近年来出现了新的金融工具——以USDT（泰达币）稳定币为核心的加密货币支付体系，尤其流行于波场（TRON）网络上的TRC20-USDT。这种去中心化货币在跨国电信诈骗、网络赌博、人口贩卖等灰黑产业中扮演着关键角色binance.combinance.com。本文将从学术角度探讨TRX网络USDT在上述犯罪经济中的作用，包括：USDT如何充当金三角、柬埔寨、西港等地跨国犯罪的资金纽带；灰色金融圈中“黑U”“灰U”的含义及其链上特征与处置；犯罪团伙对imToken、Bitpie、TokenPocket等手机钱包的广泛使用；USDT作为“市场择优的货币”在政治经济真空地带的自发流通；以及TRON创始人孙宇晨在国际政治博弈中的行为与传统华人“避政治”思维的张力。这些讨论将结合公开报道、行业调查和链上分析数据进行梳理，以期勾勒出USDT在地下经济链条中的隐秘版图。

波场USDT：东南亚跨境犯罪网络的资金动脉

\ 柬埔寨金边街头一处提供USDT兑换的店面，电子屏幕上用中英文显示“USDT抵押换汇7.2保永久”，反映USDT已成为当地地下经济的常用货币工具 © 丹妮尔·基顿-奥尔森/南华早报followin.iofollowin.io。

在东南亚的跨境犯罪热点地区（如“金三角”地带、柬埔寨西哈努克港等），TRC20版USDT已成为各种违法活动的共同资金链条binance.combinance.com。这些地区聚集了大量中国籍犯罪团伙，从电信诈骗园区到网络博彩赌场，甚至涉有人口贩卖和强迫劳动的黑营地，USDT被用作吸纳赃款、转移资金和内部结算的“通用货币”binance.combinance.com。USDT在波场网络上的迅捷匿名转账特性使其深受不法分子青睐：波场自2018年上线后将区块链交易速度提升至秒级、手续费降至美分级，用户体验几乎等同于银行转账，这直接助推了当年涉币犯罪案件数量同比大增74%geekpark.net。在现实中，这意味着诈骗集团可以在几分钟内将巨额资金通过TRX网络划转出境，且几乎无需手续费，难以被传统金融监管即时拦截。

大量调查显示，东南亚跨国诈骗集团正大规模依赖USDT来收取和清洗赃款。例如，柬埔寨一度被揭露隐藏着每年高达190亿美元规模的加密诈骗网络，相当于该国GDP的60%，其中USDT等加密币是资金流转的主要媒介binance.com。一些大型华人诈骗组织开发了高度集成的平台，以Huione汇旺集团为核心技术支撑，将受害者骗来的资金迅速转换为难以追踪的USDT进行跨境转移binance.combinance.com。在柬埔寨和邻近地区，USDT俨然形成一个地下金融循环：金边街头随处可见标有中文的兑换店提供人民币与USDT的24小时兑换服务，USDT成为华人社群规避中国外汇管制、参与地下交易的首选工具followin.io。即使柬埔寨官方名义上禁止加密货币交易，低成本、高效率的USDT交易仍在暗地里蓬勃发展，连当地一些持牌交易所也默认为华人客户提供USDT兑换，以参与这条灰色产业链followin.iofollowin.io。

跨国电信诈骗和网络博彩中，犯罪团伙常要求受害者将资金兑换为USDT后转入其提供的钱包地址，以逃避银行监控reddit.com。所谓“杀猪盘”式骗局就经常引导受害者在合法加密平台购买USDT，再充值到骗子控制的虚假投资App中reddit.com。通过这种方式，赃款直接进入链上流通，远离了传统银行体系。例如，2023年在柬埔寨西港运营的“银河集团”诈骗团伙诱骗国内3万余名中老年受害者投资虚假项目，骗取人民币1.433亿元后，即通过Telegram联系国内“币商”将赃款兑换为USDT并分散转移sohu.comsohu.com。中国警方披露，该团伙在数月内组织40名境内人员专门从事USDT洗钱，涉案金额2000多万元人民币sohu.com。最终这些帮凶被以掩饰、隐瞒犯罪所得罪判刑sohu.com，说明USDT已成为跨境诈骗资金回流国内的主要通道之一。

同样在2025年，泰国警方抓获了一名跨国诈骗嫌犯ZHOU某，此人曾在柬埔寨西港绑架勒索同胞100万人民币，并涉及多个国际诈骗和洗钱团伙news.qq.comnews.qq.com。调查发现，一名与其同居的中国女子通过USDT洗钱，从网络投资诈骗中获利高达1,840万枚USDTnews.qq.com。如此巨量的USDT流水再次印证了波场USDT在此类犯罪经济中的核心地位。波场链上USDT流通量近年来更是迅猛攀升：截至2023年5月，TRC20-USDT发行量突破777亿美元，一举超越以太坊网络上的USDT发行，成为全球最大规模的稳定币网络okx.com。截至2025年5月波场上的USDT流通量进一步超过757亿美元，占据稳定币市场半壁江山，表明愈来愈多资金选择经由波场USDT流动binance.comblocktempo.com。有报告指出，自2022年以来波场一直在USDT日均交易量上领先于以太坊binance.com。这部分反映了东南亚以及全球范围内大量非正规资金和灰色资本正涌入波场USDT体系，因为相比之下以太坊网络手续费高昂且链上交易透明度更高，不法分子更倾向于成本低且风评相对隐蔽的波场网络geekpark.netbinance.com。

值得注意的是，一些东南亚国家政商势力默许甚至参与了这种地下经济。例如柬埔寨有证据表明，多名执政党高官间接从强迫劳动的诈骗活动中获利，纵容了USDT地下经济的发展binance.combinance.com。柬埔寨政商背景深厚的Huione集团建立起庞大的USDT支付与担保系统，在东南亚乃至东亚范围处理着巨额资金流web3caff.comweb3caff.com。据美国财政部数据，Huione旗下的“汇旺担保”仅通过Telegram运营，自2021年来已处理超过40亿美元资金binance.com。链上分析显示，其核心地址在2023年一年内流入高达21.58亿USDT，其中被判定为网络赌博、高风险灰产交易、洗钱、诈骗等“不干净”资金的占比接近20%web3caff.comweb3caff.com。由于卷入大量东南亚非法活动，2024年7月Tether公司冻结了Huione关联地址上的2,962万枚USDT，引发业界关注web3caff.com。更大规模的冻结也在发生：美国司法部2023年调查东南亚诈骗洗钱网络时，一次性没收了近900万美元加密货币，并促使Tether追加冻结了2.25亿美元疑涉“杀猪盘”骗局的USDTfollowin.iofollowin.io。这些执法动作表明，波场USDT纵然便利，也已成为全球监管机构打击跨境犯罪的新焦点。

“黑U”与“灰U”：灰色金融中的稳定币污点

随着USDT渗透灰色金融领域，“黑U”“灰U”成为华语圈特有的行业术语，用于区分USDT资金的“清白”程度binance.comaicoin.com。黑U一般指明确涉及违法犯罪活动的USDT资金，往往来源地址已被执法机关标记冻结，或由Tether公司应司法请求冻结操作binance.combinance.com。此类“黑U”由于链上烙印污点，很可能无法正常转出或在交易所兑现——比如某人从违法平台提取USDT，而该平台被警方查封，其地址标记为涉案地址，那么任何从该地址转出的后续地址上的U币都可能被视为涉案资产而遭冻结处理binance.combinance.com。灰U则多指尚未被官方标记但来源可疑、涉及灰色产业（如地下赌资、逃税资金等）的USDT。这类USDT处于执法视野的灰色地带，短期内或可正常流通，但一旦上游案件爆发也有染黑的风险。业内人士形象地将广泛用于欺诈、盗窃、黑客攻击等黑灰产活动的稳定币称为“黑U”，事实上主要指USDTaicoin.com。随着各国加大链上追踪力度，越来越多交易所和机构对可疑USDT敬而远之，以免卷入反洗钱调查aicoin.com。“黑U”“灰U”之分也提醒场外交易者提高风险意识。

中国警方和司法机关对涉案USDT等加密资产的处置，近年逐步形成规范。cn.tradingview.com据中科链源SAFEIS安全研究院《2022年中国虚拟货币司法处置报告》，截至2022年底，中国司法机关扣押在案、等待处置的加密货币总价值约348亿元人民币，涵盖比特币、以太币和泰达币（USDT）等主流币cn.tradingview.comcn.tradingview.com。值得注意的是，近年涉币案件数量虽有所下降，但案件中涉案加密资产总量却在逆势飙升，表明加密货币犯罪正朝着“大案值、专业化”方向发展cn.tradingview.com。司法实践中，“黑U”等涉案USDT的处置主要有两种：一是在案件判决后将虚拟币变现上缴财政；二是在侦查阶段由公安机关先行变现或冻结保管cn.tradingview.com。无论哪种方式，如何安全合规地将币兑换为法币是核心难题。一些地方检察机关开始出台内部指引，细化了查询冻结、扣押保管、移送处置各环节的操作规范，为依法处置涉案虚拟货币提供指南cn.tradingview.com。这表明官方已经认识到“黑U”“灰U”资产处置的迫切性和复杂性。

链上分析工具也用于甄别黑灰U的流转特征。执法技术公司中科链源开发了SAFEIS安士查控平台，能够将大额可疑USDT流动绘制成网状资金流向图，对涉嫌地址实施7×24小时监控news.sina.cnnews.sina.cn。根据多年研究，他们总结出虚拟币洗钱的典型路径，包括场外承兑、跨境“跑分”、地下钱庄等fx168news.com。对于USDT洗钱，往往呈现四处流窜、多层中转的链上踪迹：不法分子常用新开钱包地址来降低过往交易痕迹binance.com；利用去中心化交易所（DEX）、跨链桥、混币器等手段试图打乱追踪news.sina.cnnews.sina.cn；甚至发行内部结算代币以逃避监管覆盖binance.com。例如，上文提到的汇旺团伙就曾发行自己的稳定币来优化洗钱流程binance.com。但无论花样如何翻新，链上留下的记录终究难以彻底抹去。一旦某个USDT地址被认定藏污纳垢，执法部门可请求Tether公司冻结其代币资产web3caff.com。Tether作为中心化稳定币发行方，近年来频繁执行“泰达冻结”动作以配合各国执法，涉及人口贩卖、毒品贸易、大规模洗钱等重大案件时更是果断出手faxianlaw.com。例如2023年下半年，Tether因配合美国调查“大猪杀”诈骗园区，短时间内冻结了数亿美元涉案USDTfollowin.io。当然，滥用冻结也引发争议：合法的加密企业若误收了部分“黑U”，账户突然被冻将遭受业务重创并可能面临法律风险web3caff.com。因此行业呼吁建立更透明的黑灰U识别和通知机制。在完全去中心化的未来尚未到来前，“黑U”恐怕仍将如同“黑钱”一般，通过监管合作与技术手段被不断围追堵截binance.com。对于普通币民而言，务必提高警惕，避免因贪图便宜买入来源不明的低价USDT而沾染黑灰风险binance.com。行业建议是在正规交易所购买USDT、通过信誉良好的场外商家出售，以尽量隔绝“脏U”影响binance.com。正如业内提示的那样：“只要你能顺利转出并在交易所变现的U，就算好U”binance.com——这背后是复杂的风控筛查和执法协作在发挥作用。

数字钱包：灰产链条中的隐秘工具

在地下灰产的运作中，常用的手机数字钱包应用如imToken、Bitpie、TokenPocket等扮演了重要角色。这些去中心化钱包由于无需实名制、便于多链资产管理且操作灵活，成为灰黑产从业者的“随身钱袋”和逃避监管的利器。据一线执法人员观察，许多涉案人员手机中往往安装有多个此类钱包App，以方便随时收付USDT等数字资产。在前述柬埔寨诈骗园区中，被胁迫工作的人员甚至可能通过数字钱包领取薪资或提成，犯罪集团用USDT直接支付，以绕开银行系统的追踪。这些钱包也用于团伙内部结算和跨境转账，诈骗集团会将受害者的钱转换成USDT发送到自己的imToken等钱包，再通过不记名的链上账户在全球范围内调度资金。

对于从事洗钱的“币商”而言，钱包是必不可少的工具。正如反洗钱专家所建议的，黑灰产业人员切忌将黑钱直接充入交易所账户，而应先提到个人钱包，再经由场外渠道兑换binance.combinance.com。这样做的原因在于：交易所往往配合监管监测大额可疑充提，一旦直接存入“黑U”，交易所可能冻结账户并上报公安binance.com。相反，钱包地址由于去中心化且与个人身份无直接关联，警方难以及时掌握钱包持有人真实身份binance.com。例如，币圈常用的钱包imToken支持ETH和TRON等主流链，灰产人员可以在其中生成多个USDT地址，用完即弃，降低被关联的风险**binance.com**。再通过这些钱包将U币分散转移给他人或其他钱包，实现“跳板”洗白。近年来流行的跑分平台骗局也利用受害者的钱包参与黑U兑换，以脱钩源头aicoin.comaicoin.com。可以说，手机钱包已成为灰色资金流动的重要载体。

值得关注的是，这些钱包应用在华人灰产圈中几乎成为“标配”。有海外华人论坛调侃道：“你做的事情跟灰产有关，自然就会用到imToken这款钱包。”这反映出imToken等在地下圈子的普及度之高。当然，钱包本身只是工具，其本意并非服务犯罪。然而在严厉的金融监管和资金跨境限制下，很多游走灰色地带的资金选择了数字钱包这条“暗道”。以imToken和TokenPocket为例，它们提供方便的私钥管理和转账功能，用户可自行掌控资产，不受第三方冻结。某种程度上，灰产人员利用的正是去中心化钱包“无边界”、“抗审查”的特质，将非法资金与现实身份切割开来。比如Telegram上的币商常指导买家先下载这些钱包收币，再协助将USDT卖出兑换人民币，从而避开银行敏感词监控和卡片冻结风险binance.combinance.com。链上资金在钱包之间空转数次后，再流入交易所时已难以直接追查源头。这给执法带来巨大挑战：警方往往需要提取嫌疑人手机中的钱包数据或借助链上分析，还原出钱包地址之间错综复杂的关系链，方能锁定赃款流向。

当然，一旦钱包地址与某起案件建立关联，也可能进入监控清单。数字执法工具可以将特定地址标记为高风险，实现实时预警news.sina.cnnews.sina.cn。部分钱包应用也开始与审计工具合作，标记可疑资产来源以提醒用户。尽管如此，“去中心化钱包+USDT”仍是当前地下资金体系中成本最低、效率最高的配置。对于普通用户而言，需要警惕的是不要随意为陌生人充当USDT资金中转，否则极可能卷入洗钱犯罪。近期就有多起中国公民因帮助境外灰产跑分兑换USDT而被以帮信罪判刑的案例sohu.com。这些教训表明，即便使用的是号称匿名的数字钱包，链上交易终究逃不过法网。因此，正确使用钱包的方式应是合法合规理财，而非为灰黑资金“提桶接水”。对监管者而言，则需在尊重技术发展的同时，加强对钱包使用异常行为的监控和溯源能力建设。

哈耶克视角：USDT——真空地带的“市场择优”货币

奥地利经济学家弗里德里希·哈耶克曾提出货币去国家化和自由竞争理论，主张让各种私人货币在市场中竞争，优胜劣汰，由市场自行选择最适合的货币。USDT的崛起，在某种意义上印证了哈耶克的这一预见——在政治与经济的真空地带（或者说监管薄弱、法币失灵的环境中），一种由私人公司发行的数字稳定币获得了广泛自发采用，成为事实上的流通货币。

在柬埔寨、西非、缅北等“金融飞地”或灰色地带，官方法币要么信用不足、通胀严重，要么受到资本管制难以自由兑换。在这些场景下，各方参与者自然倾向选择一种稳定且高效的价值媒介来交易结算。USDT恰好符合这一需求：锚定美元确保价值稳定，跨境转移不受主权限制，交易成本低且速度快。如前所述，柬埔寨的华人地下经济圈干脆跳过当地货币瑞尔和美元现金，直接用USDT进行兑换、抵押和支付followin.iofollowin.io。赌场里兑筹码可以用USDT，诈骗团伙内部发奖金用USDT，毒贩收到赃款也偏好收USDTjiemian.comjiemian.com。USDT俨然成为这些地区事实上的“硬通货”，这正是自由市场选择货币的体现——不管发行者是不是政府，只要一种货币能更好地充当交换媒介和价值储藏手段，市场就会拥抱它。

从哈耶克的货币观来看，USDT的流行揭示出当法定体系无法满足交易各方需求时，民间会自发寻求替代方案。在中国严格限制资金出境和境外赌博的背景下，大批资金绕道USDT离开银行体系追逐海外投资或赌局followin.io。市场“择优”的结果，使得泰达币这种原本用于币圈交易避险的稳定币，在完全不同的场景中获得生命力：既服务于跨境商贸和侨汇，也沦为电诈洗钱和地下钱庄的工具。这种双重面向也引发思考——**当一种货币的主要用途集中在黑产和投机领域时，它究竟是市场自发最优选择，还是金融体系漏洞的产物？**有评论指出：“一种货币使用者越多理论上是好事，但如果用途仅限于黑产和投机，是否该审视一下加密货币的初心？”jiemian.com。哈耶克或许会辩称，市场选择未必总是道德的选择，竞争出的胜者只是满足了当下参与者利益。然而从社会治理角度，USDT充当“地下央行”的崛起无疑对传统金融和法治形成了冲击。

另一个哈耶克式的问题在于：USDT并非去中心的货币，它依赖于中心化发行方维持锚定和信用。那么市场真的在“自由”选择吗？抑或只是缺少更优选项下的无奈之举？毕竟在这些真空地带，民众和非法分子用不起波动巨大的比特币，也无法信任当地政府的货币，于是选择了一个挂钩美元且相对可靠的公司代币。这里既有对美元信誉的追随，也有对主权信用的逃离。哈耶克畅想的私人货币竞争，本质上要带来货币质量的提升。然而USDT的乱象（例如透明度问题、超发质疑）也提示我们：当私营货币变成地下秩序的基石时，同样需要新的规制之手来防范滥用和风险蔓延finlaw.pku.edu.cnodaily.news。总之，在当前全球政治经济的缝隙中，USDT如同一种“自发生长”的货币填补了真空。这既印证了市场择优原则，又提醒我们这份“择优”并非在完美竞争环境下发生，而是在各国监管套利和需求倒逼的特殊土壤中生长的异象。如何引导这类市场产物朝良性方向发展，可能是未来政策和技术需要共同回答的问题。

孙宇晨的资本博弈与华人“避政治”传统

TRON波场网络创始人孙宇晨在USDT版图中扮演着一个特殊的角色：一方面，他的商业帝国因TRX和USDT的成功而崛起；另一方面，他本人又频频以“资本玩家”的身份介入国际政治和监管博弈，行为方式与传统华人商界避政治的惯性形成鲜明对比。

传统上，海外华人企业家多奉行低调务实的哲学，聚焦经商、远离政治纷争，以求在异国他乡自保并兼顾与祖籍国的关系。然而身为90后的孙宇晨却反其道而行：他主动寻求政治舞台，不惜花重金打造个人影响力。最引人注目的是2021年末，孙宇晨出任加勒比海岛国格林纳达驻世界贸易组织（WTO）大使，成为当时全球WTO代表中唯一的中国籍90后**finance.sina.cnfinance.sina.cn**。这一消息震惊舆论：一个加密货币创业者竟以外国外交官身份出现在国际组织，许多人质疑这背后是否存在利益交易。事实上据格林纳达官方公告，孙宇晨的任命于2021年12月17日生效，授权其全权代表格国出席WTO会议finance.sina.cn。外界推测孙宇晨可能通过投资入籍等方式获取格林纳达国籍，并凭借财力和人脉获得了该国政府的委任hk01.comsohu.com。此举对孙宇晨个人而言，无疑能增加政治光环甚至潜在的外交豁免，对于波场及加密圈也提供了一层保护色。然而这种高调的政治参与在华人商界是少见的。华人社会历来有“商人不问政”的传统观念，尤其是改革开放以来的企业家更倾向于专注财富积累、避免卷入敏感政治话题。孙宇晨的举动无疑突破了这一默契，在一定程度上引起了国内官方和业界的复杂反应。

孙宇晨在国际监管环境中的“搏杀”也体现出资本逐利的游戏色彩。他多次与美国监管机构周旋：2023年3月，美国证券交易委员会（SEC）以涉嫌非法发行证券和市场操纵等罪名起诉孙宇晨及其关联公司，指控他出售TRX和BTT代币未注册、并操纵TRX市场价格finance.sina.cn。孙宇晨迅速在社交媒体上回应，称SEC的指控“毫无依据”finance.sina.cn。尽管官司缠身，他依然活跃在线，甚至在香港、新加坡等地寻求新的业务机会。一些评论将他形容为“亦正亦邪”的资本玩家：一面高举拥抱监管的旗帜（例如表示愿配合香港合规框架），另一面又被指暗地参与洗币、内幕交易等灰色操作zhuanlan.zhihu.com。这种矛盾的形象折射出加密大亨在全球治理夹缝中的生存现状：他们游走于规则边缘，既想享受合法待遇，又不放弃制度漏洞带来的暴利。这与老一辈华商“循规蹈矩，明哲保身”的信条形成了鲜明张力。

孙宇晨的“资本主义博弈行为”还体现于其善于制造话题、获取影响力的手段上。从早年拍下巴菲特午餐以3千万人民币搏出位，到高调宣布太空之旅计划，他运用资本资源为自己贴上各种标签。这些行为放在传统华商语境中，无疑显得过于张扬和高风险——过多曝光可能引来监管警惕，卷入政治则可能招致各方不满。然而孙宇晨似乎深谙全球化时代的新规则：利用资金和技术优势，他可以在多国间穿梭套利，身份可以是企业家、投资人、外交代表多重转换。这种“去中国化”的跨国身份策略，某种程度上也是对华人避政治传统的一种挑战。他选择直接参与政治博弈（哪怕是小国政治），而非像多数同行那样退居幕后来影响政策。结果是，他个人的冒进举动有时会反噬企业形象。例如，格林纳达政局变动后新政府迅速撤销了孙宇晨的大使任命（原先支持他的政党在2022年6月选举中下台）finance.sina.cnfinance.sina.cn。孙宇晨在WTO露脸不满半年便失去了外交官身份，这场“政治投资”得失几何尚难定论，但至少证明了商人染指政治所需承担的不确定性。

可以说，孙宇晨身上凝聚了中国互联网时代新贵与传统华人商贾思想的冲突。一方面，他具备全球视野和冒险精神，敢于用资本开道，在国际舞台为自己和旗下加密帝国博取合法性和话语权。另一方面，这种高调参与公共事务的做法容易触碰红线，不仅引来美国SEC等强力部门的围剿，也可能在中国官方那里被视为“离经叛道”。毕竟，中国政府对加密货币一直态度谨慎，孙宇晨早在2019年就曾因出境风波被传与监管有摩擦。从华人社会心理看，孙宇晨的特立独行也引发两极评价：支持者称其为新时代华人敢于争取国际地位的代表，质疑者则认为他“精致利己”，没有国家认同，在资本游戏中随时可以抛弃身份立场。这也正是传统“避政治”思维与新兴“全球公民”意识的碰撞。**孙宇晨现象提醒我们：**在加密货币这个去中心化的疆场上，华人创业者开始探索新的生存之道，不再满足于做隐形的财富玩家，而是试图塑造规则、影响格局。但个人的棋局再精彩，也要面对大国博弈和法律高墙的制约。孙宇晨能否在资本与政治的夹缝中继续腾挪，将在很大程度上影响波场乃至华语加密圈的未来走向。

结论

基于现有调查与公开资料的分析，我们可以看到USDT（特别是波场TRC20网络上的USDT）正深刻融入华人地下跨境犯罪经济的血脉。从东南亚猖獗的电信诈骗、网络赌场，到跨境毒品和人口贩卖交易，USDT提供了一个高效且去中心化的结算网络，使不法资金得以脱离传统金融监管的视线高速流转news.sina.cnfollowin.io。在灰色金融世界中，业界用“黑U”“灰U”来识别USDT资金的干净程度，提醒参与者谨防踩雷涉罪aicoin.combinance.com。中国执法部门针对这类涉案加密资产已开始摸索行之有效的追踪和处置机制，包括引入区块链分析工具、完善司法处置规范等cn.tradingview.comnews.sina.cn。与此同时，地下产业大规模使用的imToken等手机钱包成为灰产资金流动的关键环节，体现出技术双刃剑的效应：去中心化工具在便利正常用户的同时也被不法分子所利用。更宏观地看，USDT在无主监管地带的泛滥从一方面印证了市场自发选择的力量，如同哈耶克预言的私人货币在特定环境胜出法币followin.io。但这种“胜利”伴随着巨大社会风险和治理挑战，呼唤着国际协作的新对策。

最后，孙宇晨的个人轨迹为我们提供了另一个观察维度：作为TRON/USDT生态的缔造者之一，他在全球舞台上以资本为筹码参与政治和规则博弈，反映出加密时代华人商人的新冒险精神，也揭示了其与传统价值观的冲突finance.sina.cn。USDT及其背后的波场网络，从来不只是冰冷的技术和数字，它深嵌于现实的政治经济土壤之中。在中国与世界交汇的灰色地带，USDT既是工具也是产物，既成全了地下经济的壮大也倒逼着监管升级与国际合作。未来的犯罪打击和金融治理，必须正视这样一种数字货币所带来的复杂影响。从学术和执法实践角度出发，我们应持续关注USDT等稳定币的流向，完善跨境资金监测和司法处置机制。同时，也要思考如何引导加密货币回归合法正轨，让其真正服务实体经济而非滋养犯罪网络。在法制与市场的拉锯中，或许唯有全球共同努力，方能既不扼杀技术创新，又能织密法网，让USDT不再成为法外之地的肆意横财之源。正如中国公安大学的专家所言：“妖怪一旦放出瓶子，就会产生不可逆的影响”jiemian.com。USDT这只从瓶中放出的“魔灵”，唯有在阳光下接受规范和引导，才能避免成为彻底失控的风险之源。各国监管者和行业从业者正面临一次前所未有的考验：如何驾驭这个时代的双刃剑，在保障金融安全的同时，释放技术进步的正面价值。我们拭目以待这一进程的演变，也期待看到地下黑产不再有滋生的温床。

TRX 从 $0.12 涨至 $1.00 对 Tron 网络资源与用户行为的系统性影响

当前 TRX 价格约 $0.12，若其涨至 $1.00，Tron 网络的资源模型（能量 Energy 和带宽 Bandwidth）、用户手续费感知、质押行为以及市场流通供应都将发生深刻变化。下面将基于博弈论逻辑、链上资源参数和用户行为建模进行分析，并通过图表和数据展示各变量的联动关系。

Tron 网络资源模型与手续费机制概览

Tron 采用独特的资源模型：交易消耗带宽点数（BP）和能量（Energy）而非直接收取传统手续费。每个账户每天可免费获得一定的带宽点数（例如约 600 点）用于普通交易help.tokenpocket.pro；但能量没有每日免费的分配help.tokenpocket.pro。发送 TRX 等普通转账主要消耗带宽，而执行 TRC20 智能合约（如转账 USDT）则需要能量。用户可以通过冻结（质押） TRX 来获取这两种资源的配额，以支付交易所需的资源费用exodus.comexodus.com。具体而言：

• 带宽（Bandwidth）：用于衡量交易字节大小的资源。账户每天有少量免费带宽（历史上约 5000 点，后调整至 1500，再至 600 点左右）trondao.medium.comhelp.tokenpocket.pro。若带宽不足，系统将按每字节 1000 sun（0.001 TRX）的价格烧毁 TRX 获取带宽cryptoapis.io。

• 能量（Energy）：用于衡量智能合约执行的计算资源，没有每日免费额度，只能通过冻结 TRX 获得trondao.medium.comhelp.tokenpocket.pro。当能量不足时，系统按每单位能量 280 sun（即 0.00028 TRX）的单价烧毁 TRX 作为费用cryptoapis.io。每笔 TRC20 代币交易会消耗一定能量，例如转账 USDT 大约需要数万能量。

冻结 TRX 后，用户按其冻结量占全网总冻结量的比例共享固定总量的带宽和能量每日配额。例如，全网每日总能量供应固定约 50,000,000,000 单位，用户冻结 TRX 获得的能量 = (个人冻结量 / 全网冻结总量) * 50,000,000,000trondao.medium.comtrondao.medium.com。这意味着当更多人冻结 TRX 时，每单位 TRX 获得的能量将递减，但冻结总量上升会提高全网总可用能量。冻结的 TRX 最少锁定3天，冻结期间不可流通或交易trondao.medium.com。作为激励，冻结 TRX 可用于投票超级代表（SR）以获得约 4% 年化的 Staking 收益crypto.news。

手续费支付方式 – 冻结 vs 燃烧： 当用户有足够的能量和带宽时，交易将优先消耗这些资源，不直接扣除 TRX 手续费help.tokenpocket.pro。若资源不足，则需要燃烧一定数量的 TRX 来补足差额exodus.com。例如：

• 普通 TRX 转账：消耗约 268 字节带宽，无需能量，通常可用每日免费带宽覆盖，大多数情况下用户无需支付 TRX 手续费help.tokenpocket.pro。

• TRC20-USDT 转账：若发送方和接收方账户有足够资源，则耗能量和带宽，不烧 TRX；否则将燃烧 TRX 作为手续费help.tokenpocket.pro。据统计，在资源不足时，一笔 USDT 转账约需燃烧 13.74 TRX（接收方已有该代币时）或 27.6 TRX（接收方首次接收该代币时，需要创建资产映射）help.tokenpocket.pro。以当前价 $0.12 计，相当于 $1.61 – $3.22 的费用。可见，冻结 TRX 获得能量后，几乎可使手续费降为零，仅消耗资源而不烧币help.tokenpocket.pro。

上述模型奠定了用户行为的基础：老用户往往习惯冻结 TRX 以获取免费资源，新用户若未冻结则需要持有并燃烧 TRX 支付手续费。当 TRX 价格显著上升时，这种差异和资源机制将引发一系列连锁反应。

老用户 vs 新用户：质押习惯与手续费敏感度

老用户（资深 Tron 用户）通常早已适应了 Tron 的资源机制，倾向于冻结一定量的 TRX 来保障日常交易的能量和带宽需求。这些用户往往持有大量 TRX，并享受冻结带来的免费交易和Staking 收益。对于老用户而言，哪怕 TRX 价格上涨，其主观感受到的手续费成本仍较低，因为他们多数交易并不直接烧币支付TRX。他们的行为特征是：

• 预见性冻结：会根据网络状况和自身交易频率，提前增加冻结量以确保足够资源。价格上涨时，老用户可能追加冻结更多 TRX（即使这部分 TRX 价值升高），因为相较于高昂的潜在手续费，他们更看重保证链上操作的低成本。

• 收益驱动：老用户也关注冻结带来的投票奖励收益。例如当前 Tron 质押年化约4.5%crypto.news。随着价格上涨，他们持币市值增加，继续冻结还能坐享收益，进一步增强了冻结意愿。

新用户则大多缺乏上述经验，进入 Tron 网络时往往没有冻结 TRX。许多新用户使用 Tron 是因为听闻其转账 USDT 手续费低廉，但他们可能只持有极少量 TRX 来支付手续费，甚至一开始没有TRX（需先获取一些 TRX 才能进行转账）help.tokenpocket.pro。新用户的行为和感知具有不同特点：

• 手续费敏感：新用户对显性的美元计价手续费非常敏感。他们初期未质押，因此每笔交易都真实消耗 TRX。在 TRX 价格较低时，这笔费用很小（几美分到一两美元），他们可能忽略不计；但当价格上涨导致每笔交易成本攀升，新用户会明显感觉“不再那么便宜”，从而开始寻求对策。

• 反应滞后：与老用户主动冻结不同，新用户往往在几次交易被收取较高手续费后，才会被动学习到通过冻结 TRX 可降低费用这一机制。一些钱包和社区教程也会引导新用户质押或租赁能量来节约成本help.tokenpocket.prohelp.tokenpocket.pro。

• 冻结意愿取决于成本临界点：新用户往往有一个心理阈值——当单笔手续费上涨到比如几美元甚至两位数美元时，他们才觉得“不划算，需要质押”。在 TRX 价格低迷时期，这个阈值可能从未被触及，但随着 TRX 攀升，新用户群体中会出现集中式的质押行为转变，一旦手续费达到“显著”水平，他们会成批地开始冻结 TRX。

综上，老用户在价格上升初期已提前布局资源，对手续费上涨免疫，新用户则可能在价格上涨过程中逐渐被培养成新的质押者。这种差异将在不同价格阶段体现为质押率和交易成本感受的变化，并直接影响 TRX 的流通盘和市场供需。

TRX 价格阶段与手续费成本变化

随着 TRX 价格从 $0.12 上涨至更高价位，用户实际支付的手续费成本（美元计）会线性上升。在资源消耗（以 TRX 计）大致不变的情况下，TRX 越昂贵，每笔交易烧毁的 TRX 转换为法币就越高。下表总结了不同价位下，一次 TRC20-USDT 转账的近似成本（未冻结资源时）：

| TRX价格 | USDT转账手续费（接收地址已激活） | 手续费美元价（约） | USDT转账手续费（新地址） | 手续费美元价（约） | | ----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------- | | $0.12 | 13.74 TRXhelp.tokenpocket.pro | \~$1.65 | 27.6 TRXhelp.tokenpocket.pro | \~$3.30 | | $0.30 | 13.74 TRX | \~$4.12 | 27.6 TRX | \~$8.28 | | $0.50 | 13.74 TRX | \~$6.87 | 27.6 TRX | \~$13.80 | | $1.00 | 13.74 TRX | \~$13.74 | 27.6 TRX | \~$27.60 |

注：13.74 TRX 是指向已持有USDT的地址转账的典型能量消耗费用；27.6 TRX 则包括了向新地址转账（需创建账户）的额外成本。help.tokenpocket.pro上述美元价仅为近似，实际能量消耗会随网络拥堵程度浮动。

图：TRX 价格上涨对未质押用户的单笔 USDT 转账费用（美元计）的影响。费用基本随 TRX 价格线性上升，在接收方无 USDT 资产时费用更高。help.tokenpocket.probinance.com

从图中可以直观地看到，当 TRX 从 $0.12 涨至 $0.30 时，每笔 USDT 转账费从 \~$1.6 增至 \~$4-8 美元；涨至 $0.50 时，费用进一步涨至接近两位数美元；而在 $1.00 时，不冻结资源直接转账的费用范围高达 \~$14-$28，已经远超“廉价”的范畴。这种手续费攀升将直接改变用户行为：

• 对于未冻结 TRX 的用户，高昂的美元手续费将迫使他们重新评估 Tron 网络的使用成本。当一次简单转账可能花费 \~$10，美金计价下已接近以太坊主网曾经的费用水平，Tron “廉价网络”的优势将被削弱。许多个人用户会被强烈激励去冻结一定数量的 TRX，以换取能量来豁免后续交易手续费help.tokenpocket.pro。一些服务商和交易所也可能选择代用户冻结大量 TRX，以降低批量交易成本。

• 部分小额或低频用户可能被高费用劝退，转而选择其它Layer1网络或二层方案。然而，由于 Tron 网络在稳定币领域的巨大体量（截至 2025 年4月，Tron 上流通的 USDT 超过 $700 亿cryptoslate.com，每日 USDT 转账额约 $190 亿cryptoslate.com），短期内用户更可能留在 Tron 生态并通过质押来适应变化，而不会轻易放弃这一主流稳定币链。

与此同时，已冻结资源的用户几乎不受价格上涨的手续费影响。无论 TRX 价格多高，他们每笔交易依然只需消耗带宽和能量（这些资源本身不是直接按美元计价），额外的 TRX 燃烧为零help.tokenpocket.pro。唯一的“成本”是冻结 TRX 带来的流动性损失和机会成本。但在牛市氛围下，持有 TRX 本就是盈利的，加之还有质押收益，相比之下冻结的机会成本很低。因此，随着价格上升，冻结获取资源的方案相对更有利可图，用户群体从“不冻结”向“冻结”迁移将加速。

手续费阈值与用户质押的正反馈闭环

考虑上述趋势，我们可以识别出一个潜在的“手续费显著点”或阈值：当单笔交易手续费达到足以引起用户强烈关注的水平时，大量用户将改变策略开始冻结 TRX。这一阈值在不同用户心中略有差异，但可以是假设在几美元左右（例如 $5）。博弈论视角下，这是一个集体行为转折点：之前，个体最佳响应可能是不冻结、承担小额费用；一旦超过阈值，个体最佳响应切换为冻结 TRX 来避免高额费用。这个策略转变会引发一系列连锁反应，形成正反馈循环：

1. 价格上涨 → 手续费攀升：随着 TRX 价格上扬，非质押用户每笔交易燃烧的 TRX 价值水涨船高。当费用升至阈值以上，大部分用户开始重视成本问题。

2. 成本感知 → 用户大量质押：面对显著上涨的费用，大量原本未质押的用户开始冻结 TRX 以获取能量，避免继续支付高额手续费help.tokenpocket.prohelp.tokenpocket.pro。特别是新进入用户，在感受到手续费压力后，更倾向于立即质押以降低开销。老用户则可能加大质押以获取更多免费资源。

3. 质押增加 → 流通盘收紧：当大量 TRX 被冻结（锁定）后，流通中的可交易 TRX 供应量下降。这些新冻结的 TRX 至少锁定3天，很多用户会选择长期质押获取收益，使得市场上即时可售卖的筹码变少。同时，部分用户未及时质押的，仍在持续燃烧 TRX 付费，也在永久性地减少总供应（Tron 网络目前每日燃烧量已经高于发行量，使TRX呈现净通缩趋势crypto.newsreddit.com）。

4. 供应减少 → 价格进一步上涨：流通盘收紧后，在需求旺盛（尤其是牛市资金追逐和 Tron 网络高使用量不减）的情况下，TRX 的价格往往进一步上涨。这是经典的供需效应：供给减少，价格上行压力增大。更重要的是，价格上升又会反过来强化用户对手续费的敏感度，使得更多边际用户加入冻结行列，进一步削减流通供应——正反馈循环就此形成。

这一系列过程可以形成一个“价格上涨 → 成本上升 → 质押增加 → 流通减少 → 再次推高价格”的循环闭环reddit.com。市场上的做市商和鲸鱼投资者可能会利用或放大这一动态：当他们观察到手续费成本逼近用户阈值、质押率开始上升时，可能主动推动 TRX 价格突破关键点，从而触发更多散户用户质押，加剧流通盘收缩。这给了大户更好的条件进一步拉升价格，因为市面上流动的卖盘更少，稍大买单就能推动价格上涨。可以说，Tron 网络机制下的用户集体质押行为，使价格上涨具备自我强化的“弹簧”效应：拉一下就紧一点，形成正向循环。

需要注意的是，也存在减缓机制：随着全网冻结的 TRX 增加，每单位 TRX 可分得的能量下降，某种程度上要求用户冻结更多的 TRX才能完全覆盖同样的交易频率developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network。这意味着质押率提升到一定程度后，额外用户再质押所获得的边际效用减少，正反馈的效力可能会逐步减弱。此外，如果手续费过高，一些用户可能降低交易频率或寻找替代方案。不过，在迈向 $1.00 的阶段内，Tron 作为稳定币主链的地位和用户黏性意味着大多数用户会选择适应而非离开，这使得上述正反馈有机会充分演绎。

图：TRX 价格上涨过程中质押率（冻结占总供给比例）的理论变化示意。价格越高，因手续费驱动的质押率越大，流通盘越紧（此图假设从约20%升至50%的冻结率，仅作说明）。实际过程中质押率上升具有滞后性和渐进特征。

新用户涌入与合力放大效应

在价格上涨的初期阶段，新用户的涌入对上述循环起到推波助澜的作用。牛市中，随着 TRX 价格突破历史水平并表现强势，越来越多的新参与者会被吸引到 Tron 生态。这些新用户往往抱着逐利和追涨的心理进入市场：

• 追涨入场：新用户看到 TRX 大涨，担心“踏空”，会倾向于迅速买入 TRX。这直接形成买盘，推高价格，也增加了潜在需要冻结的 TRX 持有者基数。

• 边用边买：很多新人是因为 Tron 上 USDT 等稳定币转账便宜快捷而入场。当 TRX 价格上涨、媒体报道 Tron 活跃时，他们更愿意选择 Tron 网络进行跨所转账、链上交易等，从而进一步推高 Tron 网络的交易活跃度和费用收入crypto.newscrypto.news。

• 从众质押：当新用户进来后，老用户或钱包方往往会教育他们质押省钱。再加上他们亲身经历几次昂贵手续费后，往往很快接受这一理念。这些新用户一开始可能并未计划长期持有 TRX，但为了降低使用成本，他们反而开始冻结所购的 TRX。很多新用户甚至会超额冻结（冻结比自己短期所需更多的量），因为他们发现质押还有收益且3天锁定并不长。这相当于把原本可能成为抛压的一部分新增筹码也锁住了。

新资金+新质押形成的合力，会放大价格-质押正反馈循环的力度。与仅老用户参与相比，新用户带来了额外的需求和锁仓动力，使流通供应收缩更剧烈。换句话说，本轮行情中新增的参与者并没有全部将 TRX 投入市场流通，反而有相当比例被“冻结”起来，减少了即时可售卖的代币数量。这种现象加速了市场从“供过于求”向“供不应求”的转换。

博弈论角度看，新用户的行为受老用户和市场信号影响，呈现**“从众效应”：当大家都在说“手续费贵了赶紧质押”“质押后几乎不要钱”时，个人跟随策略是有利的。这种群体策略迅速一致化的趋势，使得市场进入某种短期均衡**：大部分活跃用户都质押，剩余在外流通的更多是交易所库存、投机者筹码。一旦达到此均衡点，TRX 价格在流动性受限的情况下可能出现较为剧烈的波动，进一步吸引外围资金关注。然而，只要 Tron 网络的基础需求（如稳定币交易）坚挺，这种供应紧缩的状况就持续对价格形成支撑。

总结：联动效应与趋势展望

综合以上分析，TRX 价格从 $0.12 涨向 $1.00 将引发链上资源、用户行为和市场供需的一系列联动变化：

• 手续费上涨迫使用户行动：价格翻数倍后，不质押的用户手续费开销飙升数倍binance.com。用户从被动付费转向积极质押以获取“免费”能量，Tron 网络的质押率水涨船高。

• 质押率提高缩减流通供应：大量 TRX 冻结锁定，使流通盘迅速收紧crypto.news。同时，一些未质押部分在高费用下被直接燃烧，进一步造成 TRX 通缩reddit.com。供给减少对价格形成正向推动。

• 正反馈循环加剧波动：价格越涨→质押越多→流通越少→价格越容易再涨。这个正反馈闭环可能被市场力量（包括大户的刻意推动）所强化，在行情中后期表现尤为明显。

• 新参与者放大合力：新用户在牛市初期蜂拥而入，既贡献了需求又通过质押“锁仓”，反而减轻了抛压，起到了助涨而非砸盘的作用，放大了整体合力。

• 博弈均衡与风险：最终，大多数活跃用户选择质押是理性策略，但也意味短期内市场流动性下降。若某时刻大量质押的筹码解冻出货，或外部需求下降，这一循环可能逆转。因此，各方参与者都在博弈对方的动作：用户希望提前质押锁定低成本，市场庄家则利用高质押率营造供应稀缺推高价格，同时也警惕何时会有解冻卖出的潮涌。

从 Tron 网络的发展看，价格与网络资源、用户行为间的动态关系体现了典型的自适应反馈机制。Tron 作为目前主力稳定币传输链，其成本和性能直接影响用户留存与行为。当 TRX 价格步入高位区间，Tron 或许也会调整参数（如增加总能量供给或优化手续费机制）来平衡用户体验和代币经济模型。不过，在涨向 $1.00 的过程中，上述正反馈循环很可能成为推动力量之一。投资者和参与者应密切关注质押率、手续费水平等链上指标的变化——它们既是价格行情的结果，也是后续走势的原因。在理想状态下，这种“价格上涨-资源质押-流通收缩”的合循环能够稳步推升 Tron 生态价值；但如果过度强化，也需防范因流动性不足导致的剧烈波动风险。总体而言，TRX 价格上涨对 Tron 网络的影响是全方位的：手续费机制使用户行为发生系统性改变，而用户集体行为的改变反过来塑造了市场供求格局，值得持续深入监测和研究。crypto.newscryptoslate.com

At this stage in the game, one does not need another alarming news story, another shocking scientific discovery, or even some psuedo-spiritual online-influencer to tell us about the zillions of environmental hazards and dangers to our health that abound in the world we live in. 

Cancer rates are up, sperm counts are down, depression rates are sky-high, and general morale is seemingly at an all-time low, and if I'm seeing the same sources and interpreting the same data you are from the commonly accepted "mainstream" media sources, than its hard to argue that an alternative option to all of these things that have made us so sick and depressed is not such an unreasonable one. 

The "Norm" has become food laced with chemicals, medical treatments left up to pharmecutical companies, rampant and profound obesity rates, and a crippling nationwide mental health crisis. If that is the case, then we should be looking for some serious answers to these problems by considering what our alternatives really are. 

We still tend to view "healthy", "organic", and "physically fit" types of people as a sort of "fringe" population. If the baseline for the majority of the US means being overweight, overburdened and under-active, then actually feeling healthy, stress free and physically fit means you are swimming against the tide of this country's attitudes towards what "health" is. I do not think I need waste any more of yours or my precious time by citing examples, as you can watch the fight play out in real time today in the "mainstream" news. 

---

So here is where we start looking for solutions, rather than only focusing on the problems, and arguing about things that are right in front of our faces. What we label as "alternative treatments" are often age-old practices that came from one culture or another throughout history. Acupuncture, Massage, Chinese Medicine, Herbalism, and more. All of these have been in practice for thousands of years, but they tend to lack the rigorous scientific data to back them up (though that is rapidly changing), and they also offer fewer opportunities for massive profits by government or private entities. 

Most of these alternative medicines and treatments put their focus on how the body is operating as a whole, and they rarely utilize invasive procedures and almost never prescribe pharmaceuticals, unless considered absolutely necessary. 

What keeps these types of treatments outside the main stream is precisely that; they do not offer many places for third-party intermediaries to come in and profit. Insurers, medical equipment companies, clinic operators, They would all lose out. A direct patient-provider relationship has been commandeered by insurance providers, drug companies, and MASSIVE incentives for profit and personal gains. 

Steps in; Spatial Medicine, and the cohesive future of what we now consider fringe practices about the body. If you can go to one Manual Therapist who is able to help you recover from a variety of issues that would normally have brought you to 5 different specialists and clinics, then who is really losing out, you or them?

When you can get direct access to care from trained and qualified individuals, without needing to ask permission from your health insurer, and without being limited to care options because of it. How does that sound?

When we finally get it in our heads that all of these alternative therapies are more interested in your body working the right way than it appears the mainstream medical conglomerate ever was, than we can stop feeling bad about wanting to actually feel good, and seek the care that fits our needs. There are a litany of trained, licensed, and verifiable practitioners out there who have proven their experience. Sure, this puts a little more onus on you to, but it also ensures you are able to trust and verify your care-providers, instead of having to trust and submit to an unverifiable insurance company or doctor who choses for you. 

As a Manual Therapist who aims to distinguish this work from the generically accepted idea of "massage", I can say that I have watched people who've spent years with traditional doctors get over issues in matter of weeks when they work with me. At the very lowest baseline, no one has ever walked out of my office feeling worse than they did when they got there, but more often life-changing healing and pain relief is the result. Alternative and "direct-care" providers will ensure you get the most value for your hard earned money, because we are also getting the most direct, rewarding and ultimately effective relationship we like to have with our clients. 

So despite what the mainstream says, trust your gut and make the effort to find out what alternative treatments may actually get you where you'd like to be. Look for providers with experience, and listen to all the options. Most of us take pride in our practices, and strive to provide the best possible care to our clients. As soon as middlemen and third-parties get involved, you are compromising the quality of care, and the personal relationship that is essential to getting better.

"Desconfiança da população japonesa em relação a vacinas, ligada a casos ocorridos no passado, está entre razões que atrasaram imunização no país.

A resistência à vacina do Japão remonta à década de 1970, quando duas crianças morreram dentro de 24 horas após receberem a vacina combinada contra difteria, tétano e coqueluche (coqueluche). A vacina foi temporariamente suspensa, mas a confiança já havia sido abalada. Por vários anos, as taxas de vacinação infantil caíram, levando a um aumento nos casos de tosse convulsa.

No final dos anos 1980, houve outro susto com a introdução da vacina tripla contra sarampo, caxumba e rubéola produzida no Japão. As primeiras versões do imunizante foram associadas à meningite asséptica, ou inchaço das membranas ao redor do cérebro e da medula espinhal. O problema foi rastreado até o componente caxumba da vacina tripla, o que levou a uma ação judicial e a indenização por danos pesados.

O Instituto Nacional de Ciências da Saúde interrompeu a dose combinada em 1993 e a substituiu por vacinas individuais. Após o escândalo, Shibuya disse que o governo japonês se tornou "ciente dos riscos" e seu programa nacional de vacinação tornou-se voluntário.

O Dr. Yuho Horikoshi, especialista em doenças infecciosas, diz que os processos levaram a uma "lacuna de vacinação", em que nenhuma vacina foi aprovada no Japão por cerca de 15 anos.

Mais recentemente, em 2013, o Japão adicionou a vacina contra o papilomavírus humano (HPV) ao calendário nacional para proteger as meninas contra o vírus sexualmente transmissível, que é conhecido por causar câncer cervical. No entanto, vídeos de meninas supostamente sofrendo de reações adversas começaram a circular no YouTube, levando o governo a retirá-los da programação nacional."

Neste PDF da fundação Rockfeller, em seu próprio site, a fundação deixou claro o seu envolvimento em casos de ‘contenção’ de pandemias juntamente com a USAID (agência americana com nome ambíguo, como formalmente ‘United States Agency for International Development’, mas soando como ‘US Socorre’, mas sendo um braço do governo democrata que financiava interferências políticas diretas em vários países, como no Brasil: https://www.gazetadopovo.com.br/vida-e-cidadania/quais-ongs-cooperaram-com-moraes-e-sao-alvo-do-congresso-nos-eua/ ), inclusive em relacionadas ao SARS, um vírus muito semelhante ao SEGUNDO tipo de vírus Sars-Cov, o Sars-Cov-2 (o vírus propagado em 2019) e que causa o COVID-19.

Segundo eles:

“Integração entre Regiões e Países

A Fundação Rockefeler investiu US$ 22 milhões em sua Iniciativa de Redes de Vigilância de Doenças para ajudar a conter a disseminação de doenças infecciosas e pandemias, fortalecendo os sistemas nacionais, regionais e globais de vigilância e resposta a doenças. Dois programas-chave da Rockefeler — a Rede de Vigilância de Doenças da Bacia do Mekong e a Rede Integrada de Vigilância de Doenças da África Oriental — conectaram e capacitaram profissionais de saúde, epidemiologistas e autoridades de saúde pública em toda a região, levando a um aumento de seis vezes nos locais de vigilância de doenças transfronteiriças somente nos últimos três anos. Em 2010, a Rockefeler expandiu a bem-sucedida campanha transdisciplinar One Health, que a USAID e o Banco Asiático de Desenvolvimento adotaram como modelos. One Health refere-se à integração da ciência médica e veterinária para combater essas novas variedades de doenças zoonóticas que se movem e sofrem mutações rapidamente de animais para humanos. Essas colaborações criaram e fortaleceram uma rede regional crítica de saúde pública, enquanto as lições aprendidas foram exportadas entre disciplinas e países. Além de fortalecer os laços globais em saúde pública, a Rockefeler ajudou a elevar o nível de especialização e treinamento em campo. O Programa de Treinamento em Epidemiologia de Campo coloca graduados nos mais altos escalões do governo no Laos e no Vietnã, enquanto as bolsas da Rockefeler transformaram as ferramentas disponíveis para os médicos, permitindo-lhes utilizar o poder da internet para se comunicar e monitorar eventos, compreender contextos locais e analisar novos problemas. Finalmente, estamos aplicando ferramentas do século XXI para combater os desafios de saúde do século XXI.”

Houve uma "coincidência", a revista Mundo Estranho em julho de 2012, entrevistou o até então doutorando em virologia, Átila Iamarino (o mesmo cientista que fez diversas propagandas das vacinas no Brasil), para descrever um possível cenário de propagação de uma epidemia viral, a revista descreve com grande precisão os eventos de 2020, mas apontando o oposto da China, em que, na realidade, sua economia cresceu vertiginosamente.

10/2019 - Evento 201 - Durante os Jogos Militares Internacionais na China https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/

Promovido por: - Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation - John Hopkins Institute - Fórum econômico mundial

"O evento simula a liberação de um coronavírus novo do tipo zoonótico transmitido por morcegos para porcos e por fim para humanos. Eventualmente ele se torna muito transmissível entre humanos levando a uma pandemia severa. O vírus é muito parecido com o vírus da SARS, mas se transmite muito mais facilmente entre pessoas devido a sintomas muito mais leves destas."

De acordo com a Reuters, a gigante do vídeo diz que agora vai proibir conteúdos sobre vacinas contra o coronavírus que contradizem “o consenso de especialistas das autoridades de saúde locais ou da OMS”, como afirmações falsas de que a vacina é um pretexto para colocar chips de rastreamento nas pessoas ou que irá matar ou esterilizar quem tomar."

A medida não é exatamente nova, mas foi novamente comunicada e reforçada pelo YouTube na quarta-feira (6), após os eventos de invasão do Capitólio, em Washington, onde o presidente eleito Joe Biden participava da cerimônia que confirmava a sua vitória nas eleições de novembro de 2020. A ocasião ficou marcada pela tentativa de invasão de correligionários de Trump, que entraram no edifício em oposição à nomeação do novo presidente. Uma mulher acabou sendo morta pela polícia que protegia o local.

O ex-presidente Donald Trump teve vídeos banidos de seu canal no YouTube após os eventos de ontem (6) no capitólio."

7. CRIMES

Crimes da Pfizer

18/11/2020 Não listado no google - Os Crimes documentados da produtora de vacinas de Covid - Pfizer [INGLÊS] https://www.dmlawfirm.com/crimes-of-covid-vaccine-maker-pfizer-well-documented/

"A velocidade com que a vacina Covid da Pfizer foi produzida, a ausência de estudos em animais, testes de controle randomizados e outros testes e procedimentos padrão usuais para um novo medicamento são, no mínimo, preocupantes. Além disso, todos os fabricantes de vacinas Covid receberam imunidade legal para quaisquer ferimentos ou mortes que possam causar. Se essas vacinas são tão seguras quanto promovidas, por que seus fabricantes precisam de imunidade geral?"

"A Pfizer, uma empresa farmacêutica que parece ter ganhado na loteria para produzir a primeira vacina Covid-19, está atualmente lutando contra centenas de ações judiciais sobre o Zantac, um popular medicamento contra azia. Os processos da Zantac afirmam que a droga popular pode estar contaminada com uma substância cancerígena chamada N-nitrosodimetilamina (NDMA). Os processos Zantac são em aberto e em andamento, já que a farmacêutica está lutando contra eles; mas a Pfizer, sabemos, cometeu vários crimes ou transgressões pelos quais foi punida nos últimos anos. As falhas da empresa estão bem documentadas e vale a pena revisá-las neste momento crítico da história da humanidade, enquanto todos nós buscamos respostas."

A Pfizer recebeu a maior multa da história dos Estados Unidos como parte de um acordo judicial de US $ 2,3 bilhões com promotores federais por promover medicamentos erroneamente (Bextra, Celebrex) e pagar propinas a médicos complacentes. A Pfizer se confessou culpada de falsificar a marca do analgésico Bextra, promovendo o medicamento para usos para os quais não foi aprovado.

Na década de 1990, a Pfizer estava envolvida em válvulas cardíacas defeituosas que causaram a morte de mais de 100 pessoas. A Pfizer enganou deliberadamente os reguladores sobre os perigos. A empresa concordou em pagar US $ 10,75 milhões para acertar as acusações do departamento de justiça por enganar reguladores.

A Pfizer pagou mais de US $ 60 milhões para resolver um processo sobre o Rezulin, um medicamento para diabetes que causou a morte de pacientes de insuficiência hepática aguda.

No Reino Unido, a Pfizer foi multada em quase € 90 milhões por sobrecarregar o NHS, o Serviço Nacional de Saúde. A Pfizer cobrou do contribuinte um adicional de € 48 milhões por ano, pelo que deveria custar € 2 milhões por ano.

A Pfizer concordou em pagar US $ 430 milhões em 2004 para resolver acusações criminais de que havia subornado médicos para prescrever seu medicamento para epilepsia Neurontin para indicações para as quais não foi aprovado. Em 2011, um júri concluiu que a Pfizer cometeu fraude em sua comercialização do medicamento Neurontin. A Pfizer concordou em pagar $ 142,1 milhões para liquidar as despesas.

A Pfizer revelou que pagou quase 4.500 médicos e outros profissionais médicos cerca de US $ 20 milhões por falar em nome da Pfizer.

Em 2012, a Comissão de Valores Mobiliários dos Estados Unidos - anunciou que havia chegado a um acordo de US $ 45 milhões com a Pfizer para resolver acusações de que suas subsidiárias haviam subornado médicos e outros profissionais de saúde no exterior para aumentar as vendas no exterior.

A Pfizer foi processada em um tribunal federal dos Estados Unidos por usar crianças nigerianas como cobaias humanas, sem o consentimento dos pais das crianças. A Pfizer pagou US $ 75 milhões para entrar em acordo no tribunal nigeriano pelo uso de um antibiótico experimental, o Trovan, nas crianças. A empresa pagou um valor adicional não divulgado nos Estados Unidos para liquidar as despesas aqui. A Pfizer violou o direito internacional, incluindo a Convenção de Nuremberg estabelecida após a Segunda Guerra Mundial, devido aos experimentos nazistas em prisioneiros relutantes.

Em meio a críticas generalizadas de roubar os países pobres em busca de drogas, a Pfizer prometeu dar US $ 50 milhões para um medicamento para a AIDS para a África do Sul. Mais tarde, no entanto, a Pfizer falhou em honrar essa promessa.

Esses usos não aprovados também são conhecidos como usos "off-label" porque não estão incluídos no rótulo do medicamento aprovado pela FDA."

*Tron 区块链采用三层架构：存储层、核心层、应用层developers.tron.networkcointelegraph.com。*存储层包含区块存储和状态存储，并引入图数据库理念以满足多样化数据存储需求developers.tron.network。核心层实现共识（基于改进的 委托权益证明 DPoS）、账户管理和智能合约等模块developers.tron.network。Tron 虚拟机（TVM）位于核心层，用于执行智能合约代码。Tron 最初指定 Java 语言 用于智能合约开发，并规划支持其它高级语言developers.tron.network。这一设计取舍体现了团队对 Java 生态和性能的偏好：Tron **节点实现（java-tron）**采用 Java 开发，使虚拟机与链上逻辑高度兼容 Java 环境。此外，TVM 与 Ethereum EVM 高度兼容，方便以太坊DApp迁移，但在细节上有所不同medium.commedium.com。例如，TVM 使用能量（Energy）而非 Gas，energyPrice 为全网固定参数（目前210 SUN，即0.00021 TRX）medium.com；大多数指令的能耗与以太坊相同，但部分操作成本更低（如合约存储读取 SLOAD 等）medium.com。Tron 地址体系也不同：通过 CREATE2 创建合约时使用 0x41 前缀（Tron 地址Hex前缀），确保与以太坊地址格式区别medium.com。总的来说，Tron 架构在继承主流区块链设计的基础上，用 Java 实现了一套高性能的三层架构，为 DApp 提供了良好的开发和运行环境developers.tron.networkcointelegraph.com。

吞吐性能与资源模型：带宽与能量机制

Tron 在性能上追求高吞吐和低延迟。共识方面，Tron 采用 **27个超级代表（SR）**轮流产块的机制，每隔3秒出块reflexivityresearch.com。得益于DPoS和小规模节点，Tron 单链理论TPS可达约2,000～2,500cointelegraph.comchainspect.app。实际网络中Tron尚未达到饱和：截至2025年中旬，每日交易量稳定在 800万笔以上（峰值逾1000万），平均约 90～120 TPSbinance.combinance.com。相比之下，以太坊当前主网TPS约15笔（日均140万交易）cointelegraph.com。Tron链上尚无明显拥堵，表明其吞吐冗余较充足。

Tron 引入了独特的资源模型，将交易执行成本分解为“带宽点数”（Bandwidth）和“能量”（Energy）两类developers.tron.network。带宽代表交易数据的大小，每字节消耗1点带宽developers.tron.network；能量代表合约执行的算力和存储消耗，每执行一步EVM指令消耗相应能量developers.tron.network。Tron 每个账户每天有 5000点免费带宽 配额developers.tron.network用于普通转账；当免费额不足时，可以通过“冻结”TRX获取资源或直接消耗少量TRX燃烧获得developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network。例如，一个约200字节的普通转账消耗200带宽点，如账户无冻结资源且免费额度用尽，则需烧毁约 每字节10 SUN（即0.00001 TRX）的费用developers.tron.network——换算下来一次转账成本仅约 0.001～0.01美元（远低于以太坊动辄数美元的Gas费）。对于智能合约交易，则既消耗带宽又消耗能量developers.tron.network。开发者或用户可冻结 TRX 获取能量，按其冻结占比分享全网每日约500亿能量的恢复额度developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network。冻结的能量会随时间自动恢复（24小时恢复满）developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network。如果调用合约时能量不足，系统会按当前能量价格从用户扣除等值 TRX 燃烧medium.com。

Tron 资源模型对用户和开发者影响显著：一般用户日常转账几乎免费（每天免费额度足够覆盖小额频度交易），即使进行 TRC20 代币（如 USDT）转账，只要账户持有一定冻结的 TRX，其能量和带宽消耗也可被抵扣为零成本cointelegraph.com。如果用户没有任何冻结资源，转账 USDT 约需消耗十余枚 TRXmedium.com；但实际约六成以上的能量消耗是通过用户预先冻结TRX来覆盖的medium.com。此外，Tron 允许智能合约开发者为调用者代付部分能量：开发者可设置自己承担例如90%的能量费用developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network。这意味着在 Tron 上，DApp 开发者可以冻结足够TRX资源，使用户调用其合约时无需支付能量费（类似Gas代付），提升应用可用性developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network。资源模型的另一便利是 资源委托：账户A可以为账户B冻结TRX来提供带宽或能量developers.tron.network。综合来看，Tron 的带宽/能量双资源机制避免了直接以代币计价的浮动手续费，为用户提供了**“零Gas”**的体验，同时激励TRX持有者参与质押获取资源alphanode.globalalphanode.global。这种设计在牛市高拥堵场景下依然能保持交易成本稳定，有利于大规模应用。Tron 官方统计显示，截至2024年底网络平均每笔交易费用低至 $0.000005 美元cointelegraph.com，几乎可以忽略不计。

Tron 与主流公链的架构和开发体验对比

Tron 的系统架构与开发体验在不同维度上可与 Ethereum、Solana、Avalanche、BNB Chain 等主流公链进行横向比较。下表总结了几项关键对比：

| 属性 | Tron (TRX) | Ethereum | Solana | Avalanche (C链) | BNB Chain (BSC) | | ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | 共识机制 & 节点 | DPoS (27个超级代表，其他为见证节点)reflexivityresearch.com；3秒出块 | PoS (质押验证人 50万+，随机出块)；12秒出块，最终确认约612分钟 | PoH+PoS (领导者序列+验证人约2000)chainspect.app；0.4秒出块，终局约10-15秒 | Avalanche共识 (验证人上千)；\~1-2秒出块，\~1秒终局chainspect.app | PoSA ( 权威证明，21活跃验证者)；\~3秒出块，快速终局 (几秒内)chainspect.app | | 架构设计 | 三层架构(存储/核心/应用)cointelegraph.com；单链+侧链BTTC扩展 | 单层主链+即将通过分片\&Rollup扩展；EVM执行环境 | 单链高度并行运行时（Sealevel）；账户模型并行合约执行 | 主网三链架构(X链UTXO/P链治理/C链EVM)；支持子网扩展 | 类以太坊单链架构；EVM执行环境，依赖以太坊工具链 | | 智能合约平台 | TVM（Ethereum VM 兼容，有能量机制改进）medium.com；支持 Solidity 等 | EVM（广泛支持Solidity、Vyper等）；强生态工具 | BPF虚拟机（Rust/C/C++开发，需重新编译）；高性能但开发曲线较陡 | EVM (C链)；Solidity 合约与以太坊兼容 | EVM；Solidity合约完全兼容以太坊，工具链共用 | | 平均实际TPS | \~90-150 TPS（2024-25年，日均交易数8百万+binance.comcoindesk.com）；峰值 \~270 TPSchainspect.app | \~15 TPS（L1日均约140万笔交易)cointelegraph.com；需借助L2提升 | \~1000+ TPS（日均交易数数千万，包含投票交易)chainspect.app；曾峰值5000+ TPSbinance.com | 当前负载低，实际 \~7 TPSchainspect.app；高峰 \~120 TPSchainspect.app | \~200 TPS（日均交易约400万笔binance.com）；高峰 \~1700 TPSchainspect.app | | 理论最大TPS | \~2,000-2,500 TPS（当前参数下区块容量）cointelegraph.comchainspect.app | \~15-30 TPS（不考虑Rollup；单区块Gas上限限制） | \~50,000+ TPS（官方理论值）chainspect.app；高度依赖硬件性能 | \~1,000+ TPS（C链Gas参数下）chainspect.app | \~2,200 TPS（现行Gas上限下估计值）chainspect.app | | 交易费用机制 | 带宽+能量模型：每日免费额度+质押获取资源，无需常付手续费developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network；无资源时按固定价格烧TRX（≈$0.0001/笔） | Gas拍卖：用户以 ETH 支付Gas费，费率随网络拥堵浮动；矿工/质押者收益 | 固定低费：按计算单元收取极低SOL费用，无免费额度；拥堵时费率略上调 | Gas费：按EVM Gas计算，以AVAX支付，费用较低；支持动态调整 | Gas费：与以太坊类似但计价币种为BNB，手续费低廉且有上限 | | 开发体验 | Solidity 为主（与以太坊基本通用）；TronWeb、TronIDE 等SDK工具developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network；需理解资源模型区别 | Solidity/Vyper生态成熟，工具最完善（Truffle、Hardhat等）；L2多样 | **Rust/ C++**为主，开发需适应新模型；Solana工具链（Anchor框架等）在改进 | Solidity为主（C链类似以太坊开发）；另有Subnet可用Rust、Go自定义VM | Solidity为主，100%兼容以太坊工具（Remix、Hardhat等）；开发门槛与以太一致 | | 主要应用与优势 | 稳定币传输（USDT占据全球约50%供应coindesk.comcoindesk.com）；DeFi借贷（JustLend)等，但生态DApp相对稀少coinshares.com | 通用智能合约平台（DeFi、NFT蓬勃，生态最大）；安全性与去中心化强 | 高性能DApp（链游、NFT市场等；近期增长快）；曾遇网络中断挑战 | DeFi与资产发行（C链上有借贷DEX，也支持企业级子网）；强调快速终局性 | 泛用智能合约（DeFi规模庞大，如PancakeSwap等）；依托Binance生态，用户基数大 |

表：Tron 与 Ethereum、Solana、Avalanche、BNB Chain 的关键技术指标和体验比较。 上表可见，Tron 在性能和成本上具备明显优势：TPS远高于以太坊cointelegraph.com，达到Solana/Avalanche的次高水平；交易手续费几乎为零cointelegraph.com。Tron 通过牺牲一定去中心化程度（仅27个验证人）换取了高吞吐和快速确认（3秒出块，\~1分钟内区块不可逆）chainspect.app。相比之下，以太坊去中心化最强但性能有限；Solana走极致性能路线，TPS极高但因架构复杂曾多次宕机，开发语言Rust门槛也更高。Avalanche主网C链采用EVM，使开发体验类似以太坊，但通过创新共识实现1秒终局，高TPS潜力；不过Avalanche生态主要在子网探索，主链交易量目前不大。BNB Chain 与 Tron 类似，采用小规模验证者和EVM，在性能和费用上接近Tron，也广受用户欢迎（尤其DeFi应用）。然而 BNB Chain 手续费仍需消耗BNB（虽很便宜），而 Tron 的资源模型让新用户无币也能免费发交易，初次使用门槛更低alphanode.global。

开发者体验方面，Tron 对以太坊生态高度兼容。Solidity 智能合约几乎无需修改即可部署到 Tron 网络（TronVM对EVM指令的兼容medium.com确保了这一点）。开发工具有 TronWeb JS 框架、TronIDE 集成环境等供使用developers.tron.network。不过Tron社区的第三方工具和合约模板相对以太坊要少，一些以太坊常用开发库在Tron上可能需要调整。Solana 则完全是另一种开发范式（基于Rust的BPF合约），与EVM链差异大。Avalanche的C链因为本质就是EVM，所以以太坊开发者可无缝迁移合约；BNB Chain 亦然。总的来说，Tron 和 BSC 在开发上延续了以太坊的习惯，而Solana、Avalanche追求性能和新架构，开发曲线相对陡峭。Tron 相比BSC的一个不同点是资源模型，这要求开发者考虑带宽/能量的分配，但也提供了为用户代付资源的机制，适合需要降低用户使用门槛的DApp。值得注意的是，Tron 主网账户总数已超过 3亿（包括大量交易所托管地址）coindesk.com、日活跃地址逾 百万coindesk.com；尽管生态应用不算丰富，但庞大的用户基础主要来源于稳定币交易和基本金融应用，对开发者而言意味着可观的潜在用户群。

工程实现与稳定币优势：有限创新下的差异化

Tron 经常被评价为“技术创新有限”，因为其很多理念来源于前辈（如采用与EOS类似的DPoS共识，兼容EVM的合约机制等）coinshares.com。Tron 白皮书早期甚至曾被指出有抄袭他链文档的嫌疑。然而，Tron 在工程实现和优化上非常出色，打造出了一条高可用、高性能的主网，并在关键细分领域取得领先地位。首先，Tron 网络运行稳定，自2018年主网上线以来几乎没有发生严重宕机或安全事件。这一点相较于同样DPoS架构的 EOS 主网要稳健得多（EOS 主网上线后曾多次出现性能瓶颈和治理僵局），也好于近年曾遭遇停链的 Solana 等高TPS链。Tron 将区块时间精确到3秒且长期保持共识稳定，使得链上转账**“三秒到账”**成为标志性的用户体验优势。

更重要的是，Tron 聚焦于稳定币转账这一高频刚需场景，通过一系列工程手段降低用户成本、提升效率。例如，Tron 上 USDT 等稳定币的 TRC-20 合约转账被优化得近似免Gas：利用带宽每日免费额度和发行方资源冻结策略，大部分小额USDT转账用户无需支付任何TRXcointelegraph.com。据统计，Tron 上单笔 USDT 转账成本可低至 0.345 TRX（约合2美分）甚至为零medium.com。Tron 还允许代币发行方提供一定的“免费带宽”给代币持有人developers.tron.networkdevelopers.tron.network，这意味着像 Tether 这样的发行方可为TRC20-USDT交易承担资源费用，使用户体验真正达到免手续费。这种“稳定币交易免Gas”的设计在主流公链中独树一帜。

Tron 的另一工程优势是极快的确定性。虽然Tron每块3秒，但由于DPoS共识和固有的BFT特性，Tron 区块在数轮出块后即不可逆转。Tron Solidity节点仅同步不可逆区块，用于对接交易所等场景developers.tron.network。通常交易所对Tron充值只需等待 1分钟左右确认，远快于以太坊传统上要求的数分钟/数十个区块确认。chainspect.app的链速数据显示，Tron链上最终确定（finality）时间约 \~57秒，与EOS等DPoS链类似，明显快于以太坊（>6分钟）和比特币（一小时）chainspect.app。这使Tron成为稳定币跨平台流转的理想基础设施：用户可以在交易所之间快速划转USDT，几乎实时地完成资金移动，而手续费可以忽略不计。

尽管Tron本身没有提出全新的共识算法或智能合约范式，但这些工程上的打磨带来了切实的成果：截至2025年，Tron 网络上 USDT的流通量超过750亿美元，再度位居各链之首cointelegraph.comcointelegraph.com。约 50%以上的USDT供应原生发行在Tron上coindesk.comcoindesk.com（二号是以太坊，约47%，其余诸如Solana、Avalanche合计不到5%cointelegraph.com）。Tron 同时处理了全球稳定币交易价值的近29%coindesk.com，每日 USDT 转账额高达 200亿美元coindesk.com。这些数据说明，尽管Tron没有“炫目的”技术标签，但凭借务实的性能优化和对用户友好的成本结构，在稳定币这一杀手级应用上取得了其它公链无法比拟的领先coindesk.com。

Tron 的高性能也使其成为去中心化金融(DeFi)基础设施的有力支撑。Tron上最大的DeFi借贷协议 JustLend 锁定价值超过 60亿美元coinshares.com（主要是TRX和USDT的借贷），显示出稳定币低费率环境对资金沉淀的吸引力。Tron 于2022年还推出了去中心化美元稳定币 USDD，以丰富生态。不过USDD体量相对有限（约7亿市值）coinshares.com，Tron生态真正的支柱仍是 USDT 等主流稳定币的传输和兑换。正因为聚焦于稳定币的出色支持，Tron 获得了行业独特地位：CoinShares 报告称截至2024年末 Tron 上约44%的USDT供应，使其在稳定币基础设施方面一度超越以太坊coinshares.comcoinshares.com。

“BTC上涨+稳定币基础设施”叙事下的 Tron 竞争力与市场前景

当前环境下，Tron 在 USDT市场占有率高、交易成本极低 的条件下，展现出强大的竞争优势。这与行业宏观叙事“比特币上涨 + 稳定币基础设施受益”紧密相关。在加密市场进入上行周期时，比特币价格攀升往往伴随场外资金涌入，稳定币作为法币与加密世界的桥梁需求激增castleisland.vc。Tron 因为在稳定币传输领域的卓越表现，有望从这一趋势中获得超额收益（Alpha）。

首先，Bitcoin上涨带来的交易活跃增加，势必需要大量稳定币在交易所和用户间快速流转。Tron作为承载全球超过一半USDT流通的网络coindesk.comcoindesk.com，“水涨船高”，交易笔数和价值很可能进一步增长。从2024到2025年的数据已经印证了这一点：2024年末以来 Tron 日均交易量从约430万增加到840万以上，增长了95%binance.combinance.com。尤其是在2025年初，比特币触发的新一轮市场热度下，Tron 日均交易笔数持续保持在 800万+，并多次冲击单日千万笔的关口binance.combinance.com。这表明 Tron 网络能够大规模处理牛市涌现的交易需求，为稳定币的频繁进出提供了高吞吐保障。

其次，超低的费用使Tron在竞争中胜出。当市场繁荣时，以太坊等网络往往因拥堵导致Gas费飙升，而Tron凭借资源模型依然保持每笔几乎为0的费用cointelegraph.com。这一点对套利交易商、跨境转账用户等极为重要：他们可以放心地使用Tron在交易所和钱包间搬运资金，而不用担心手续费侵蚀利润。这种成本优势也使得Tron在新兴市场获得青睐。许多亚洲、非洲的用户通过Tron链转移美元稳定币用于支付和结算coinshares.comcoinshares.com。由此Tron已经形成网络效应：用户数量多、USDT储备大，新用户更愿意选择已被广泛接受的Tron作为稳定币链。2025年一季度，Tron链上USDT流通再增 70亿美元，新增用户钱包数增长了 4600万coindesk.comcoindesk.com。这种高速增长进一步巩固了Tron在稳定币领域的龙头地位。

从市场价值角度看，Tron 的基本面强劲却长期被低估的情况也引人关注。Tron手续费收入与市值比成为分析师讨论的焦点：截至2024年底，Tron每日协议收入约 $79万美元（主要来自能量费燃烧等）alphanode.globalalphanode.global。按Tron当时$190亿市值计算，其市盈率(P/E)显著低于同业。例如Solana市值虽只有Tron五分之一，但每日费用收入只有Tron的一半alphanode.global。这意味着 Tron 网络在实际利用率和价值捕获上表现突出，TRX 代币有潜在重估空间alphanode.global。部分研究指出Tron的手续费收入/市值比远高于以太坊、Solana等，暗示TRX被低估且具有“价值洼地”特征。

竞争层面，Tron 面临的挑战主要来自以太坊扩容和其他低费链的蚕食。一方面，以太坊主网的升级及其Rollup二层网络（如Arbitrum、Optimism等）在降低费用方面取得进展，某些USDT流通开始转移到以太坊的Layer 2。但即便如此，Tron凭借先发优势和广泛的交易所支持，短期内仍牢牢占据稳定币结算主渠道coinshares.com。2024年11月，以太坊曾短暂重新超过Tron的USDT供应占比，但很快又被Tron新的增发反超cointelegraph.comcointelegraph.com。这显示出Tether公司和市场对于Tron网络的信心和需求依然强劲。另一方面，BSC、Solana等亦尝试争夺稳定币市场份额，例如BSC上也运行着不少USDT。但截至2025年，BSC上的USDT流通量和活跃度远不及Tron（Tron每日稳定币活跃地址占全行业28%coindesk.comcoindesk.com）。Solana则更专注于自身DeFi和新资产发行，稳定币主要还是USDＣ为主，体量有限。

综合而言，Tron 在“BTC 上涨 + 稳定币基础设施需求”这一行业趋势下展现出了独特的竞争力。它以稳健高效的工程实现弥补了技术创新上的不足，围绕稳定币这一刚需场景打造出低成本、高速度、广覆盖的链上金融网络。在未来市场周期中，只要对稳定币的需求存在，Tron 作为底层清算层的地位就难以被撼动。对于TRX的价值表现，这意味着有潜在的Alpha：当交易量和用户数上升时，TRX作为资源质押和手续费燃烧的载体，其需求量和内在价值也水涨船高alphanode.globalalphanode.global。当然，Tron 也需继续拓展生态应用、改善西方市场的形象来巩固长期地位coinshares.comcoinshares.com。但就当前来看，Tron已经凭借“强工程+准入门槛低”的策略，在区块链基础设施版图中占据了一席重要之地。它在稳定币时代的成功经验，印证了区块链项目不仅可以靠颠覆性创新取胜，也可以通过持续优化用户体验和性能找到差异化赛道，实现后来居上。

Durante a década de 1990, houve o aumento da globalização da economia, determinando a adição do fluxo internacional de capitais, de produtos e serviços. Este fenômeno levou a uma interdependência maior entre as economias dos países. Justamente por causa da possibilidade de que um eventual colapso econômico em um país resulte no contágio dos demais. Diante disso, aumentou a preocupação com os riscos incentivando a utilização de sofisticados modelos e estratégias de avaliação de gestão de risco.

Na década, ganharam destaque ainda os graves problemas financeiros enfrentados, entre outros, pelo banco inglês Barings Bank, e pelo fundo de investimento norte-americano Long Term Capital Management.

Outro grande destaque foi a fraude superior a US$ 7 bilhões sofrida pelo banco Société Generale em Janeiro de 2008.

O Barings Bank é um banco inglês que faliu em 1995 em razão de operações financeiras irregulares e mal-sucedidas realizadas pelo seu principal operador de mercado. O rombo da instituição foi superior à US$ 1,3 Bilhão e causado por uma aposta equivocada no desempenho futuro no índice de ações no Japão. Na realidade, o mercado acionário japonês caiu mais de 15% na época, determinando a falência do banco. O Baring Bank foi vendido a um grupo financeiro holandês (ING) pelo valor simbólico de uma libra esterlina.

O Long Term Capital Management era um fundo de investimento de que perdeu em 1998 mais de US$ 4,6 bilhões em operações nos mercados financeiros internacionais. O LTCM foi socorrido pelo Banco Central dos Estados Unidos (Federal Reserve ), que coordenou uma operação de socorro financeiro à instituição. A justificativa do Banco Central para esta decisão era "o receio das possíveis consequências mundiais da falência do fundo de investimento".

O banco francês Société Generale informou, em janeiro de 2008, uma perda de US$ 7,16 bilhões determinadas por fraudes efetuadas por um operador do mercado financeiro. Segundo revelou a instituição, o operador assumiu posições no mercado sem o conhecimento da direção do banco. A instituição teve que recorrer a uma urgente captação de recursos no mercado próxima a US$ 5,0 bilhões.

E finalmente chegamos ao caso mais problemático da era das finanças modernas anterior ao Bitcoin, o caso Lehman Brothers.

O Lehman Brothers era o 4° maior de investimentos dos EUA quando pediu concordata em 15/09/2008 com dívidas que superavam inacreditáveis US$ 600 bilhões.

Não se tinha contas correntes ou talão de cheques do Lehman Brothers. Era um banco especializado em investimentos e complexas operações financeiras. Havia feito pesados investimentos em empréstimos a juros fixos no famigerado mercado subprime, e o crédito imobiliário voltado a pessoas consideradas de forte risco de inadimplência.

Com essa carteira de investimentos que valia bem menos que o estimado e o acúmulo de projetos financeiros, minou a confiança dos investidores na instituição de 158 anos. Suas ações passaram de US$ 80 a menos de US$ 4. Acumulando fracassos nas negociações para levantar fundos; a instituição de cerca de 25 mil funcionários entrou em concordata.

O Federal Reserve resgatou algumas instituições financeiras grandes e tradicionais norte-americanas como a seguradora AIG no meio da crise. O Fed injetou um capital de US$ 182, 3 bilhões no American International Group (AIG).

Foi exatamente essa decisão do Fed em salvar alguns bancos e deixar quebrar outros, que causou insegurança por parte dos clientes. E os clientes ficaram insatisfeitos tanto com os bancos de investimentos quanto com as agências de classificação de risco, como a Standard & Poor's que tinha dado uma nota alta para o Lehman Brothers no mesmo dia em que ele quebrou.

E essa foi uma das razões pelo qual o Bitcoin foi criado. Satoshi Nakamoto entendeu que as pessoas não estavam mais confiando nem no Governo, nem nos Bancos Privados que o Governo federal restagatava quando eles quebravam e isso prejudicou muita gente. Tanto que o “hash” do Genesis Block contém o título do artigo “Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks” (Chanceler à beira de segundo resgate para bancos, em português) da edição britânica do The Times.

To all territory owners,

• Can I co-found a territory with someone? Is it on the roadmap to be able to do so?
• Can I automatically split the territory rewards with other stackers?
• Can I rename the territory in the future?

Thanks

The former seems to have found solid product market fit. Expect significant volume, adoption, and usage going forward.

The latter's future remains to be seen. Dependence on Tor, which has had massive reliability issues, and lack of strong privacy guarantees put it at risk.

The Basics

• Lightning is a protocol that enables cheap and fast native bitcoin transactions.
• At the core of the protocol is the ability for bitcoin users to create a payment channel with another user.
• These payment channels enable users to make many bitcoin transactions between each other with only two on-chain bitcoin transactions: the channel open transaction and the channel close transaction.
• Essentially lightning is a protocol for interoperable batched bitcoin transactions.
• It is expected that on chain bitcoin transaction fees will increase with adoption and the ability to easily batch transactions will save users significant money.
• As these lightning transactions are processed, liquidity flows from one side of a channel to the other side, on chain transactions are signed by both parties but not broadcasted to update this balance.
• Lightning is designed to be trust minimized, either party in a payment channel can close the channel at any time and their bitcoin will be settled on chain without trusting the other party.

There is no 'Lightning Network'

• Many people refer to the aggregate of all lightning channels as 'The Lightning Network' but this is a false premise.
• There are many lightning channels between many different users and funds can flow across interconnected channels as long as there is a route through peers.
• If a lightning transaction requires multiple hops it will flow through multiple interconnected channels, adjusting the balance of all channels along the route, and paying lightning transaction fees that are set by each node on the route.

Example: You have a channel with Bob. Bob has a channel with Charlie. You can pay Charlie through your channel with Bob and Bob's channel with User C.

• As a result, it is not guaranteed that every lightning user can pay every other lightning user, they must have a route of interconnected channels between sender and receiver.

Lightning in Practice

• Lightning has already found product market fit and usage as an interconnected payment protocol between large professional custodians.
• They are able to easily manage channels and liquidity between each other without trust using this interoperable protocol.
• Lightning payments between large custodians are fast and easy. End users do not have to run their own node or manage their channels and liquidity. These payments rarely fail due to professional management of custodial nodes.
• The tradeoff is one inherent to custodians and other trusted third parties. Custodial wallets can steal funds and compromise user privacy.

Sovereign Lightning

• Trusted third parties are security holes.
• Users must run their own node and manage their own channels in order to use lightning without trusting a third party. This remains the single largest friction point for sovereign lightning usage: the mental burden of actively running a lightning node and associated liquidity management.
• Bitcoin development prioritizes node accessibility so cost to self host your own node is low but if a node is run at home or office, Tor or a VPN is recommended to mask your IP address: otherwise it is visible to the entire network and represents a privacy risk.
• This privacy risk is heightened due to the potential for certain governments to go after sovereign lightning users and compel them to shutdown their nodes. If their IP Address is exposed they are easier to target.
• Fortunately the tools to run and manage nodes continue to get easier but it is important to understand that this will always be a friction point when compared to custodial services.

The Potential Fracture of Lightning

• Any lightning user can choose which users are allowed to open channels with them.
• One potential is that professional custodians only peer with other professional custodians.
• We already see nodes like those run by CashApp only have channels open with other regulated counterparties. This could be due to performance goals, liability reduction, or regulatory pressure.

• Fortunately some of their peers are connected to non-regulated parties so payments to and from sovereign lightning users are still successfully processed by CashApp but this may not always be the case going forward.

Summary

• Many people refer to the aggregate of all lightning channels as 'The Lightning Network' but this is a false premise. There is no singular 'Lightning Network' but rather many payment channels between distinct peers, some connected with each other and some not.
• Lightning as an interoperable payment protocol between professional custodians seems to have found solid product market fit. Expect significant volume, adoption, and usage going forward.
• Lightning as a robust sovereign payment protocol has yet to be battle tested. Heavy reliance on Tor, which has had massive reliability issues, the friction of active liquidity management, significant on chain fee burden for small amounts, interactivity constraints on mobile, and lack of strong privacy guarantees put it at risk.

"Modern science is based on this principle: give us one free miracle and then we'll explain the rest."

— Terrence McKenna

I always wondered why a pot of water boils on the stove. I mean I know it boils because I turned on the electricity, but why does the electricity cause it to boil? I know the electricity produces heat, and the heat is conducted through the stainless steel pot and into the water, but why does the heat transfer from stovetop to the water?

I know the heat from the stove via the pot speeds up the molecules in the water touching it and that they in turn speed up the molecules touching them and so on throughout the pot, but why do speedy molecules cause adjacent molecules to speed up?

I mean I know they do this, but why do they do this? Why couldn’t it be that sped-up molecules only interact with sufficient speedy molecules and ignore slower ones? Why do they interact with all the molecules, causing all of them to speed up? Or why don’t the speedy ones, instead of sharing their excited state, hoard it and take more energy from adjacent slower molecules, thereby making them colder, i.e., why doesn’t half the water boil twice as fast (on the left side of the pot) while the other half (right side) turns to ice?

The molecules tend to bounce around randomly, interacting as equal opportunists on the surrounding ones rather than distinguishing only certain ones with which to interact. Why do the laws of thermodynamics behave as such rather than some other way?

There may be yet deeper layers to this, explanations going down to the atomic and even quantum levels, but no matter how far you take them, you are always, in the end, left with: “Because those are the laws of physics”, i.e., “because that’s just how it is.”

. . .

The Terrence McKenna quote, recently cited by Joe Rogan on his podcast, refers to the Big Bang, the current explanation adopted by the scientifically literate as to the origins of the universe. You see there was this insanely dense, infinitesimally small micro dot that one day (before the dawn of time) exploded outward with unimaginable power that over billions of years created what we perceive as the known universe.

What happened prior? Can’t really say because time didn’t yet exist, and “prior” doesn’t make sense in that context. Why did it do this? We don’t know. How did it get there? Maybe a supermassive black hole from another universe got too dense and exploded out the other side? Highly speculative.

So why do people believe in the Big Bang? Because it comports with and explains certain observable phenomena and predicted other phenomena which were subsequently confirmed. But scratch a little deeper for an explanation as to what caused it, for what purpose did it occur or what preceded it, and you hit the same wall.

. . .

Even if we were to understand at a quantum level how and why the Big Bang happened and what preceded it, let’s assume it’s due to Factor X, something we eventually replicated with mini big-bangs and universe creations in our labs, we would still be tasked with understanding why Factor X exists in the universe. And if Factor X were explained by Process Y, we’d still be stuck needing an explanation for Process Y — ad infinitum.

Science can thus only push the wall back farther, but can never scale it. We can never arrive at an ultimate explanation, only partial ones. Its limitations are the limitations of thought itself, the impossibility of ever creating a map at a scale of one mile per mile.

@ 7f6db517:a4931eda

There must be a limit to how much data is transferred across the bitcoin network in order to keep the ability to run and use your own node accessible. A node is required to interact with the global bitcoin network - if you do not use your own node then you must trust someone else's node. If nodes become inaccessible to run then the network will centralize around the remaining entities that operate them - threatening the censorship resistance at the core of bitcoin's value prop. The bitcoin protocol uses three main mechanisms to keep node operation costs low - a fixed limit on the amount of data in each block, an automatic difficulty adjustment that regulates how many blocks are produced based on current mining hash rate, and a robust dynamic transaction fee market.

Bitcoin transaction fees limit network abuse by making usage expensive. There is a cost to every transaction, set by a dynamic free market based on demand for scarce block space. It is an incredibly robust way to prevent spam without relying on centralized entities that can be corrupted or pressured.

After the 2017 bitcoin fee spike we had six years of relative quiet to build tools that would be robust in a sustained high fee market. Fortunately our tools are significantly better now but many still need improvement. Most of the pain points we see today will be mitigated.

The reality is we were never going to be fully prepared - pressure is needed to show the pain points and provide strong incentives to mitigate them.

It will be incredibly interesting to watch how projects adapt under pressure. Optimistic we see great innovation here.

Marty's Bent

Here's a great presentation from our good friend Michael Goldstein, President of the Satoshi Nakamoto Institute titled Hodl for Good. He gave it earlier this year at the BitBlockBoom Conference, and I think it's something everyone reading this should take 25 minutes to watch. Especially if you find yourself wondering whether or not it's a good idea to spend bitcoin at any given point in time. Michael gives an incredible Austrian Economics 101 lesson on the importance of lowering one's time preference and fully understanding the importance of hodling bitcoin. For the uninitiated, it may seem that the hodl meme is nothing more than a call to hoard bitcoins in hopes of getting rich eventually. However, as Michael points out, there's layers to the hodl meme and the good that hodling can bring individuals and the economy overall.

The first thing one needs to do to better understand the hodl meme is to completely flip the framing that is typically thrust on bitcoiners who encourage others to hodl. Instead of ceding that hodling is a greedy or selfish action, remind people that hodling, or better known as saving, is the foundation of capital formation, from which all productive and efficient economic activity stems. Number go up technology is great and it really matters. It matters because it enables anybody leveraging that technology to accumulate capital that can then be allocated toward productive endeavors that bring value to the individual who creates them and the individual who buys them.

When one internalizes this, it enables them to turn to personal praxis and focus on minimizing present consumption while thinking of ways to maximize long-term value creation. Live below your means, stack sats, and use the time that you're buying to think about things that you want in the future. By lowering your time preference and saving in a harder money you will have the luxury of demanding higher quality goods in the future. Another way of saying this is that you will be able to reshape production by voting with your sats. Initially when you hold them off the market by saving them - signaling that the market doesn't have goods worthy of your sats - and ultimately by redeploying them into the market when you find higher quality goods that meet the standards desire.

The first part of this equation is extremely important because it sends a signal to producers that they need to increase the quality of their work. As more and more individuals decide to use bitcoin as their savings technology, the signal gets stronger. And over many cycles we should begin to see low quality cheap goods exit the market in favor of higher quality goods that provide more value and lasts longer and, therefore, make it easier for an individual to depart with their hard-earned and hard-saved sats. This is only but one aspect that Michael tries to imbue throughout his presentation.

The other is the ability to buy yourself leisure time when you lower your time preference and save more than you spend. When your savings hit a critical tipping point that gives you the luxury to sit back and experience true leisure, which Michael explains is not idleness, but the contemplative space to study, create art, refine taste, and to find what "better goods" actually are. Those who can experience true leisure while reaping the benefits of saving in a hard asset that is increasing in purchasing power significantly over the long term are those who build truly great things. Things that outlast those who build them. Great art, great monuments, great institutions were all built by men who were afforded the time to experience leisure. Partly because they were leveraging hard money as their savings and the place they stored the profits reaped from their entrepreneurial endeavors.

If you squint and look into the future a couple of decades, it isn't hard to see a reality like this manifesting. As more people begin to save in Bitcoin, the forces of supply and demand will continue to come into play. There will only ever be 21 million bitcoin, there are around 8 billion people on this planet, and as more of those 8 billion individuals decide that bitcoin is the best savings vehicle, the price of bitcoin will rise.

When the price of bitcoin rises, it makes all other goods cheaper in bitcoin terms and, again, expands the entrepreneurial opportunity. The best part about this feedback loop is that even non-holders of bitcoin benefit through higher real wages and faster tech diffusion. The individuals and business owners who decide to hodl bitcoin will bring these benefits to the world whether you decide to use bitcoin or not.

This is why it is virtuous to hodl bitcoin. The potential for good things to manifest throughout the world increases when more individuals decide to hodl bitcoin. And as Michael very eloquently points out, this does not mean that people will not spend their bitcoin. It simply means that they have standards for the things that they will spend their bitcoin on. And those standards are higher than most who are fully engrossed in the high velocity trash economy have today.

In my opinion, one of those higher causes worthy of a sats donation is the Satoshi Nakamoto Institute. Consider donating so they can preserve and disseminate vital information about bitcoin and its foundations.

The Shell Game: How Health Narratives May Distract from Vaccine Risks

In our recent podcast, Dr. Jack Kruse presented a concerning theory about public health messaging. He argues that figures like Casey and Calley Means are promoting food and exercise narratives as a deliberate distraction from urgent vaccine issues. While no one disputes healthy eating matters, Dr. Kruse insists that focusing on "Froot Loops and Red Dye" diverts attention from what he sees as immediate dangers of mRNA vaccines, particularly for children.

"It's gonna take you 50 years to die from processed food. But the messenger jab can drop you like Damar Hamlin." - Dr Jack Kruse

Dr. Kruse emphasized that approximately 25,000 children per day are still receiving COVID vaccines despite concerns, with 3 million doses administered since Trump's election. This "shell game," as he describes it, allows vaccines to remain on childhood schedules while public attention fixates on less immediate health threats. As host, I believe this pattern deserves our heightened scrutiny given the potential stakes for our children's wellbeing.

Auch wer das Kriegsgeschehen bisher nicht im Detail verfolgte (das tat ich auch nicht), horcht nun auf: Einem Nicht-Atomstaat – der Ukraine – ist ein gleichzeitiger, koordinierter Schlag gegen vier teils tausende Kilometer voneinander entfernte russische Luftbasen gelungen. Eine nicht unerhebliche Zahl strategisch wichtiger Flugzeuge wurde zerstört. Ein Angriff im hintersten russischen Hinterland, selbst jenseits der Taurus-Reichweite, durchgeführt mit Billigdrohnen, wirft erhebliche Fragen über geheimdienstliches Versagen in Russland und eklatante Mängel in der Luftverteidigung auf.

Es gibt wohl Momente, in denen Geschichte nicht geschrieben, sondern geflogen wird. Unspektakulär, relativ still, surrend, von einem LKW aus abgefeuert, mit einem Stück Technik, das kaum mehr kostet als das Gerät, auf dem ich diesen Text schreibe.

Ein Angriff auf die Friedensverhandlungen

Die Ukraine hat sich erstmals weit über das Schlachtfeld hinaus erhoben – geografisch, technisch, symbolisch. Die Triade der atomwaffenfähigen Luftstreitkräfte Russlands – ein Heiligtum sowjetischer Machtprojektion – wurde durch das schwächste Glied in der Logikkette der Militärdoktrin beschädigt: den Überraschungseffekt. Drohnen, wie aus dem 3D-Drucker, haben eine strategische Achillesferse bloßgelegt. Nicht mit Hyperschall, sondern mit Hartplastik und GPS. Das erste Opfer dieses Angriffs dürften die Friedensverhandlungen in Istanbul sein.

Dass die Ukraine strategische Luftstützpunkte der russischen Atomwaffe angreift – koordiniert, tief im Landesinnern – wäre bereits für sich eine Zäsur. Doch dass dies unter stillschweigender Duldung oder gar Mithilfe westlicher Dienste wie der CIA erfolgt sein dürfte, während Trump zugleich als Friedenstaube auftritt, verschiebt das strategische Koordinatensystem. Die alten Verträge – START etc. – wirken wie rissige Abkommen aus der Steinzeit. Wenn die USA von der Operation wussten, darf sich Russland getäuscht fühlen. Washington kann nicht gleichzeitig Frieden mit Moskau betonen und eine Aktion dulden oder mittragen, die offensichtlich das Ziel hat, die russische Atommacht zu schwächen, woran die USA prinzipiell Interesse hätten. Falls Trump nichts davon wusste, muss man sich fragen: Regiert eigentlich er oder der „Swamp“, den er austrocknen wollte?

Egal wie man es wendet: Die Operation Spinnennetz war mehr als nur ein Angriff auf russische Flugzeuge auf russischem Gebiet. Militärisch gewinnt die Ukraine dadurch wenig, symbolisch und politisch aber viel, denn der Hauptgegner der Ukraine sind gerade nicht die hundert Millionen Dollar teuren Bomber der Russen, sondern die schleichende Kriegsunlust der Europäer – und ein Amerika, das sich mehr mit sich selbst beschäftigt als mit dem Fortgang eines Krieges, in dem es längst selbst Partei ist.

Damit sich die Reihen wieder schließen, muss der Feind sich zeigen – deutlich, fassbar, bedrohlich. Eine russische Reaktion, die auch europäische Hauptstädte erschüttert, wäre strategisch nützlich. Der Angriff war daher wohl weniger eine militärische Tat als eine psychologische Operation im Kampf um Wahrnehmung und Willen. Aus Sicht der Ukraine ist das verständlich, für sie geht es um ihre Existenz. Dafür wiederum braucht es eine erhöhte Alarmstufe.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JlQLewOAmA

Solidarität durch Eskalation?

Die kalkulierte Demütigung könnte einem Drehbuch folgen: Putin soll nun die Rolle des Eskalators übernehmen. Tut er es, war die Operation erfolgreich – denn Europas Kriegstüchtigkeit hängt nicht nur von Panzerzahlen ab, sondern von der Bereitschaft zur Konfrontation. Der Feind, den es braucht, muss sich jetzt allen ins Gedächtnis brennen.

So gesehen ist der eigentliche Coup nicht der Schaden in Djagilewo, Iwanowo oder Olenia – sondern das noch bevorstehende unsichtbare Nachspiel. Europa und die Welt betreten nun gänzlich neues Gelände, in welchem ein militärisch gedemütigtes Russland gleichzeitig Friedenswillen gegenüber Europa bekunden, rote Linien verteidigen und seine Integrität als Atom-Macht bewahren muss. Das Dilemma für Putin besteht nun darin, Stärke zu beweisen ohne sich noch mehr zum Feindbild des Aggressors machen zu lassen.

Fakt ist: Wir sind einem III. Weltkrieg gerade so nah wie seit der Kuba-Krise nicht mehr.

Und wer sich über ein russisches “Pearl Harbor” freut, sollte mal in ein Geschichtsbuch schauen, wie es am Ende für Japan ausging.

Don't sleep on what's happening in Japan right now. We've been covering the country and the fact that they've lost control of their yield curve since late last year. After many years of making it a top priority from a monetary policy perspective, last year the Bank of Japan decided to give up on yield curve control in an attempt to reel inflation. This has sent yields for the 30-year and 40-year Japanese government bonds to levels not seen since the early 2000s in the case of the 30-year and levels never before seen for the 40-year, which was launched in 2007. With a debt to GDP ratio that has surpassed 250% and a population that is aging out with an insufficient amount of births to replace the aging workforce, it's hard to see how Japan can get out of this conundrum without some sort of economic collapse.

This puts the United States in a tough position considering the fact that Japan is one of the largest holders of U.S. Treasury bonds with more than $1.20 trillion in exposure. If things get too out of control in Japan and the yield curve continues to drift higher and inflation continues to creep higher Japan can find itself in a situation where it's a forced seller of US Treasuries as they attempt to strengthen the yen. Another aspect to consider is the fact that investors may see the higher yields on Japanese government bonds and decide to purchase them instead of US Treasuries. This is something to keep an eye on in the weeks to come. Particularly if higher rates drive a higher cost of capital, which leads to even more inflation. As producers are forced to increase their prices to ensure that they can manage their debt repayments.

It's never a good sign when the Japanese Prime Minister is coming out to proclaim that his country's financial situation is worse than Greece's, which has been a laughing stock of Europe for the better part of three decades. Japan is a very proud nation, and the fact that its Prime Minister made a statement like this should not be underappreciated.

As we noted last week, the 10-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury bonds are drifting higher as well. Earlier today, the 30-year bond yield surpassed 5%, which has been a psychological level that many have been pointed to as a critical tipping point. When you take a step back and look around the world it seems pretty clear that bond markets are sending a very strong signal. And that signal is that something is not well in the back end of the financial system.

This is even made clear when you look at the private sector, particularly at consumer debt. In late March, we warned of the growing trend of buy now, pay later schemes drifting down market as major credit card companies released charge-off data which showed charge-off rates reaching levels not seen since the 2008 great financial crisis. At the time, we could only surmise that Klarna was experiencing similar charge-off rates on the bigger-ticket items they financed and started doing deals with companies like DoorDash to finance burrito deliveries in an attempt to move down market to finance smaller ticket items with a higher potential of getting paid back. It seems like that inclination was correct as Klarna released data earlier today showing more losses on their book as consumers find it extremely hard to pay back their debts.

This news hit the markets on the same day as the average rate of the 30-year mortgage in the United States rose to 7.04%. I'm not sure if you've checked lately, but real estate prices are still relatively elevated outside of a few big cities who expanded supply significantly during the COVID era as people flooded out of blue states towards red states. It's hard to imagine that many people can afford a house based off of sticker price alone, but with a 7% 30-year mortgage rate it's becoming clear that the ability of the Common Man to buy a house is simply becoming impossible.

via Lance Lambert

The mortgage rate data is not the only thing you need to look at to understand that it's becoming impossible for the Common Man of working age to buy a house. New data has recently been released that highlights That the median home buyer in 2007 was born in 1968, and the median home buyer in 2024 was born in 1968. Truly wild when you think of it. As our friend Darth Powell cheekily highlights below, we find ourselves in a situation where boomers are simply trading houses and the younger generations are becoming indentured slaves. Forever destined to rent because of the complete inability to afford to buy a house.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin re-approached all-time highs late this evening and looks primed for another breakout to the upside. This makes sense if you're paying attention. The high-velocity trash economy running on an obscene amount of debt in both the public and private sectors seems to be breaking at the seams. All the alarm bells are signaling that another big print is coming. And if you hope to preserve your purchasing power or, ideally, increase it as the big print approaches, the only thing that makes sense is to funnel your money into the hardest asset in the world, which is Bitcoin.

Trump's Middle East Peace Strategy: Redefining U.S. Foreign Policy

In his recent Middle East tour, President Trump signaled what our guest Dr. Anas Alhajji calls "a major change in US policy." Trump explicitly rejected the nation-building strategies of his predecessors, contrasting the devastation in Afghanistan and Iraq with the prosperity of countries like Saudi Arabia and UAE. This marks a profound shift from both Republican and Democratic foreign policy orthodoxy. As Alhajji noted, Trump's willingness to meet with Syrian President Assad follows a historical pattern where former adversaries eventually become diplomatic partners.

"This is really one of the most important shifts in US foreign policy to say, look, sorry, we destroyed those countries because we tried to rebuild them and it was a big mistake." - Dr. Anas Alhajji

The administration's new approach emphasizes negotiation over intervention. Rather than military solutions, Trump is engaging with groups previously considered off-limits, including the Houthis, Hamas, and Iran. This pragmatic stance prioritizes economic cooperation and regional stability over ideological confrontation. The focus on trade deals and investment rather than regime change represents a fundamental reimagining of America's role in the Middle East.

For too long, the autistic experience has been framed through a neurotypical lens, focusing on "differences" and "deficits." However, a profound perspective emerging from within the autistic community offers a radical reinterpretation: that autistic individuals are not inherently "broken" but rather possess a unique, often unyielding, perception of truth that challenges the very foundations of neurotypical society. From this viewpoint, autism is less about a disorder and more about a clarity of vision that apprehends the world as fundamentally "untrue" in many of its social constructs.

This perspective posits that what many autistic individuals perceive as "corrupted" or "untrue" in society isn't a subjective internal experience, but an objective reality of falsehoods, deception, and manipulation. The rejection of these elements is not a personal preference but a natural, logical response to what is genuinely illogical and dishonest.

The Core of the "Untrue" World:

• Honesty as a Default State: For many autistic people, directness and factual accuracy are paramount. Social conventions like "white lies," indirect communication, or performative politeness are not merely nuanced social skills; they are perceived as outright forms of deception and inauthenticity. The natural inclination is towards what is straightforward and verifiable.
• Logic Over Social Grace: An unwavering adherence to logic means that actions or systems that lack rational basis—such as engaging in flattery, suppressing truth for social harmony, or participating in inefficient rituals—are viewed as fundamentally nonsensical and therefore "untrue."
• Authenticity as a Non-Negotiable: The concept of "masking"—the exhausting act of suppressing one's natural autistic traits to conform—is seen as a deeply painful betrayal of self. A society that implicitly demands such a performance is deemed "corrupt" because it stifles genuine self-expression.
• Aversion to Hypocrisy: A strong sense of justice and an acute awareness of inconsistency mean that any disjuncture between stated values and actual behavior is immediately flagged as a profound untruth.

Social Groups: Formed Around a "Proudly Believed Lie"?

This critical autistic perspective extends to the very fabric of social organization. It suggests that many groups, whether religious, political, scientific, or economic, are not built on shared objective truths, but rather on "proudly believed lies." These shared narratives or belief systems, even if they contradict logic or verifiable facts, serve as the glue that binds the group, fostering identity, comfort, and a sense of belonging. The "pride" in these beliefs makes them resistant to critical examination, even when confronted with evidence.

For example: * In religion, this "lie" might be a dogma that provides solace but defies logic. * In politics, it could be an ideology based on selective truths that serve power. * In economics, it might be assumptions about markets or growth that are presented as infallible. * Even in science, while ideally pursuing truth, the social aspects of the scientific community might, at times, cling to paradigms that become "proudly believed lies," resisting new evidence.

The Disconnect: Why Autistics Are "Discredited"

If autistic individuals are part of the "5% who see it as it is"—those who perceive these societal untruths with clarity—then a natural tension arises with the "10% who want control." This controlling minority, it is argued, relies on these "untruths" to maintain power and influence over the "85% who are happy following."

From this viewpoint, the discrediting of autistic people—labeling their directness as "social deficits," their sensory experiences as "disorders," or their logical critiques as "inflexibility"—is not accidental. It is a strategic mechanism employed by the controlling "10%" to neutralize those who expose the underlying untruths, thereby safeguarding their constructed reality and maintaining influence.

In conclusion, the autistic perspective challenges us to re-evaluate the very nature of truth in our society. It suggests that what many perceive as social norms might, in fact, be a pervasive web of "untruths," and that the autistic individual's unique wiring allows for a crucial, unvarnished perception of this reality. It is a powerful call for authenticity and a profound questioning of how much of our world is built on what is genuinely true, versus what is merely believed.

Over the weekend, prolific vibe coder levelsio took to X to complain about the state of housing affordability across Europe. Something that I was very happy to see considering the fact that there is a massive real estate affordability crisis across much of the world and it is important that people who are respected and have platforms speak out when they identify the problem as well. More eyes and focus on the problem is how something begins to get solved.

With that being said, I think levelsio is missing the forest for the trees by blaming institutionalized NIMBYism, burdensome regulations and governments hoarding land that should instead be given to developers to produce more housing supply. I quote tweeted this particular tweet on the subject from levelsio and wanted to take some time today to republish those thoughts here and expand on the topic.

It’s almost as if real estate is being used as a store of value asset instead of the consumable good that it is.

What @levelsio is observing here is called a “monetary premium”. A monetary premium is the value added on top of the consumable/aesthetic/location value of real estate.

This monetary premium exist because central banks and governments have distorted the market for money and people are forced to push value into assets that are scarce relative to dollars. Over the last 50 years real estate has been one of the relatively scarce assets of choice.

The housing affordability crisis is a negative externality of the market reaction to the corruption of money. It can only be fixed by re-introducing hard money into the economy that enables people to store value reliably. If that emerges they won’t have to store value in real estate, the monetary premium of real estate will dissolve and prices will correct to their proper valuations.

This is one of the problems that bitcoin solves.

It’s still early yet, but more and more people are recognizing the utility provided by a neutral reserve asset that can’t be manipulated by central planners. At scale, the effect on assets that have accumulated a monetary premium over decades will be material. All of these assets are significantly overvalued and their monetary premium are leaking into bitcoin.

Put another way, "It's the money, stupid." Now, this isn't to say that the supply of housing in certain areas being artificially restricted isn't having an effect on the price of housing. This is certainly true, especially in cities like San Francisco where there is a relatively strong demand because of the economic density of the area and the desire of many high agency and productive people to live there. But I would put forth that the monetary premium is still the bigger problem and no amount of de-regulation to enable the supply of housing to increase will solve the affordability crisis in the long-run. The only way to get to the root of this specific problem is via bitcoin's mainstream adoption as an apolitical uncontrollable asset with completely idiosyncratic risks when compared to any individual asset class.

Let's say the government did ease up regulations and local NIMBY sympathetics were shoved in a corner to allow new units to be built. This doesn't solve the problem in the short-run because there is a time-delay between when regulations are lifted and when new supply actually makes it to market. In the interim, governments and central banks are inevitably going to go further into debt and be forced to print money to monetize that debt. This will exacerbate inflation and even if new real estate units are brought to market, the builders/owners of those properties will likely have to demand elevated prices to attempt to keep up with inflation.

This also does nothing to solve the problem of real income and wage growth, which are significantly lagging real inflation. Even if prices came down because of a surge in supply, could the Common Man afford a down payment on the property? I'd be shocked if this was the case. And since it's likely not the case the only way to get people into these houses as "owners" would be to offer them zero-down financing, which makes people feel richer than they actually are and leads them to make financially ruinous decisions.

It's the money, stupid. People need a way to save so that they can buy in the first place. Fiat currency doesn't allow this and the only people who can save effectively are those who make enough money to funnel into substitute store of value assets like real estate.

As it stands today, the price-to-income ratio of real estate is 5.0x and the price-t0-rent index is 1.36. Up from 3.3x and 1.14x respectively where the metrics sat in the year 2000. The growth in these ratios is driven predominately via their monetary premium.

And guess what, it's about to get much worse. Donald Trump, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Elon Musk have all signaled that the plan moving forward is to attempt to drive growth and productivity as high as possible while also letting deficits and the debt increase unabated, which means that inflation is likely to continue unabated and potentially increase.

It might make sense to get some bitcoin if that is the case.

"Whale in the Pool" Risk That Could Destroy MSTY Investors

Jessy Gilger raised serious concerns about MSTY and similar derivative products that promise eye-popping yields. He pointed to the COVID crash where gold mining ETFs using derivatives collapsed 95% and never recovered, despite gold itself performing well. Jessy noted that while his team calculated reasonable MicroStrategy covered call yields of 16-22%, MSTY advertises 120% annualized distributions - a red flag that suggests these aren't sustainable dividends from profits, but potentially just returning investors' own capital.

"If a whale pees in the pool, everyone is affected." - Jessy Gilger

Jessy explained that when large investors need to exit these pooled products during market stress, they must sell derivative positions into illiquid markets with no buyers, potentially triggering catastrophic losses for all participants. His solution? Private pools through separately managed accounts that achieve similar income goals without the contagion risk of being trapped with panicking whales.

While hackers shift from code to human psychology, $2.1B in crypto was stolen in 2025. Ethereum's price surged 46% in 30 days, strengthening against Bitcoin and poised for a significant breakout. Meanwhile, California unanimously passed a bill allowing state agencies to accept crypto payments, signaling mainstream adoption. Corporate treasuries now control over 3% of Bitcoin's total supply, with 60+ companies doubling their holdings in just two months. The crypto landscape is transforming from technical vulnerabilities to social engineering – are you protecting your assets or just your code? What security measures have you implemented that address the human element of crypto safety?

Ofcourse do we want our big open world cake, and eat it with a side of stability and order. I love the spammers, because all they do is press our noses on the grim reality we are facing: Everything is going to turn to absolute shit. The fact that we are all interconnected is meaningless because the communication lines contain too much noise.

Look, some spambot posting silly things that might waste your attention for a tiny bit before you figure out its not worth your time, or clutter your feed, is not the end of the world. But the point is that that post could be anything, and with a bit of AI effort more convincing. We all sense this, in fact we even see it, and there is no indication to think it wont get worse.

Important to note is, that the big platforms are struggling with this crap as well. Their set up is by their nature a ‘have a cake and eat it’ proposition: Yes we are the worlds public square that everyone visits in this particular domain, and we will keep you safe from spammers and fraudsters. But we ran out of captchas, and they are forced to heighten their walls, reinforce their gates and increase the amount of guards that are on patrol; slowly but surely, you as a user will be forced to subjugate yourself to more and more scrutiny, restrictions and punishment if you want to be active there. At some point the only reason they would be considered ‘the worlds public square’, is because they are the only vestiges of order left without any existing alternatives.

If we seriously want to introduce that alternative, we would have to approach the issue in a fundamentally different manner. That issue, is one of reputation, i.e. consistent behavior over time. Now to be clear, there is no full proof system for reputation, it does not exist for two reasons: One, anyone at any time can decide to break their consistent behavior simply because they feel like it. And two, because you you never have perfect information and can therefor not interpret the consistency of their behavior perfectly; think of a spy for example, where them consistently lying to you and eventually betraying you actually makes them a consistent spy.

Reputation is always a game of who knows who, but ‘social’ reputation is hard to scale: the longer the ties become, the less they can be relied upon. To scale reputation went the route of formalization via institutions: these are your certificates, badges, uniforms whatever, as a testament you went through certain predefined hoops in a controlled environment. As a result, whatever reputation the institution might have rubs off on you. It also stacks in the fact that one certificate can only be obtained when other certificates were acquired prior. So these certificates are pieces of reputational capital, defined in records. This system allowed us to create globe spanning organizations.

That system does work, but it is rigid, and the moment it becomes corrupt you are very, very screwed, because on what basis are you going to put it back together again? In any event, that is what we have anyway and as noted it has other issues, so what other option is there? Scaling ‘social’ reputation. The whole idea behind Nostr’s ‘Web of Trust’, is that bottom-up connections and relations, that are (partly) based on existing relations in meat-space can form a globally meaningful reputational pillar on which we can start identifying each other again.

If seven handshakes connects you with everyone, four will get you pretty far. Three is even less risk, whilst five might open up interesting doors for you. The point is, its gradual, and according to your risk appetite you can play around with it. Secondly, the better well connected you are, how more of a reputation you gained, the less risk you need to run to begin with. Obviously this requires some bootstrapping, but you live in meatspace; if there really is no-one out there willing to give you a leg up you might want to do some soul searching.

But the result of this strategy, will be that everyone will pull back behind their own little moats first. At first, we will all lose connections to defend ourselves against the massive onslaught of ‘the Fake’: The big estrangement. But that is ok, with a bit of effort, I am sure that eventually, after enough reputational capital is build over time, we will find each other again in this global village.

Tether Group & Bitfinex Transferred 25,812 BTC to Jack Mallers’ Twenty One Capital

Today, Tether Group and Bitfinex have transferred a combined 25,812.22 BTC to support their investment in Twenty One Capital, a newly formed Bitcoin-native company set to go public through a business combination with Cantor Equity Partners (Nasdaq: CEP).

Tether moved 14,000 BTC to an address of Twenty One Capital (XXI) and previously transferred 4,812.22 BTC to another address of Twenty One Capital as part of their investment in the company.

Bitfinex, in parallel, has sent 7,000 BTC to an address of Twenty One Capital, also as part of its investment.

JUST IN: Bitfinex sent 7,000 #Bitcoin worth $731 million to Jack Mallers' Twenty One Capital pic.twitter.com/kshqZwHz34

— Bitcoin Magazine (@BitcoinMagazine) June 2, 2025

These Bitcoin transfers come a little over a month after Twenty One Capital and CEP announced that it was raising $585 million in additional capital at the closing of the business combination. The raise was to feature $385 million in convertible senior secured notes and $200 million in PIPE (private investment in public equity) financing, with proceeds expected to be used for further Bitcoin purchases and general corporate purposes. Once finalized, the company anticipates launching with over 42,000 BTC, positioning it as the third-largest Bitcoin treasury in the world.

“Markets need reliable money to measure value and allocate capital efficiently,” said the Co-Founder and CEO of Twenty One Jack Mallers. “We believe that Bitcoin is the answer, and Twenty One is how we bring that answer to public markets. Our mission is simple: to become the most successful company in Bitcoin, the most valuable financial opportunity of our time. We’re not here to beat the market, we’re here to build a new one. A public stock, built by Bitcoiners, for Bitcoiners.”

The announcement comes just days after Mallers announced a new Bitcoin backed loan platform at Strike during the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas. The system will offer interest rates between 9-13%, allowing clients to borrow between $10,000 and $1 billion using Bitcoin as collateral.

“All these professional economists, they are like Bitcoin is risky and volatile,” stated Mallers. “No it’s not. This is the magnificent 7 one year volatility and the orange one in the middle is Bitcoin. It’s no more risky and volatile. It’s a little bit more volatile than Apple, but is far less more volatile than Tesla.”

“Life is short,” commented Jack. “Take the trip, but with bitcoin you just get to take a better one.”

**Inside OpSec Academy’s One-on-One Approach to Digital Sovereignty ** As digital infrastructure becomes increasingly opaque and centralised, a growing number of individuals are seeking to understand—not just use—the tools that protect their privacy and autonomy online. While many solutions promise security at the click of a button, few teach the underlying principles or offer environments that prioritise verifiability and user control.

OpSec Academy’s new one-on-one training, "OpSec Intensive," takes a different approach. Delivered in person and fully offline, the full-day session provides practical, tool-based instruction inside a secure, USB-booted environment—designed from the ground up to leave no trace.

At the heart of the session is OpSecOS v1.2, a live operating system that routes all traffic through Tor, uses system non-persistence, and comes preconfigured with a suite of open-source tools for password management, communication, and private finance. The OS runs from a USB stick, allowing participants to explore and build their own private computing workflows without touching the host machine.

Learning in Context: Why One-on-One? While group training can provide a general introduction to privacy concepts, it often lacks depth and adaptability. OpSec Intensive is structured as a one-on-one session to allow real-time feedback, personal threat modeling, and tailored instruction based on the participant’s specific context and technical background.

This format also makes space for slow, deliberate learning—a rarity in cybersecurity training, where content is often condensed or overly abstract. In OpSec Intensive, participants move through each phase at their own pace, working directly with an experienced instructor to build confidence and competence.

Structure and Content of the Day The curriculum spans both foundational theory and hands-on practice, beginning with basic OpSec principles before moving into technical tool use.

Topics include: * Booting and verifying OpSecOS * Secure USB creation and system verification * Navigating a non-persistent, Tor-routed live environment * Password and credential management * Offline use of KeePassXC * Strategies for vault organisation and redundancy * Bitcoin wallet setup and recovery * Single-signature and multisignature wallet creation using Sparrow, Electrum, and Feather * Understanding xpubs, derivation paths, and recovery flow * Seed phrase security * Entropy generation and validation using offline tools like iancoleman.io * Best practices for cold storage and physical backups * Network privacy and decentralised communication * Using Mempool.space to visualise Bitcoin transaction data * Setting up Nostr clients (Snort, Iris) for decentralised messaging * Discussion of traffic fingerprinting and Tor considerations

A Shift Toward Practical Sovereignty The tools and workflows covered in OpSec Intensive are not theoretical. Participants leave the session with configured environments, tested backups, and an understanding of what each tool does—and what it doesn’t do.

This reflects a broader shift in how privacy-conscious individuals are approaching digital security. Rather than relying on packaged services or closed-source software, there’s growing interest in verifiable, modular tools that prioritise autonomy and resilience over ease-of-use.

In that context, OpSec Academy’s offering sits somewhere between a workshop and an apprenticeship: not a lecture, but a process of guided, hands-on learning designed for the long haul.

A lot of the focus over the last couple of months has been on the emergence of Strategy competitors in public markets looking to build sizable bitcoin treasuries and attract investors of all shapes and sizes to drive shareholder value. The other big topic in the bitcoin development world has been around OP_RETURN and the debate over whether or not the amount of data that can be shoved into a bitcoin transaction should be decided by the dominant implementation.

A topic that is just as, if not more, important that is not getting enough appreciation is the discussion around open source bitcoin developers and the lingering effects of the Biden administration's attack on Samourai Wallet and Tornado Cash. If you read our friend Matt Corallo's tweet above, you'll notice that the lingering effects are such that even though the Trump administration has made concerted efforts to reverse the effects of Operation Chokepoint 2.0 that were levied by the Biden administration, Elizabeth Warren, and her friends at the Treasury and SEC - it is imperative that we enshrine into law the rights of open source developers to build products and services that enable individuals to self-custody bitcoin and use it in a peer-to-peer fashion without the threat of getting thrown in jail cell.

As it stands today, the only assurances that we have are from an administration that is overtly in favor of the proliferation of bitcoin in the United States. There is nothing in place to stop the next administration or another down the line from reverting to Biden-era lawfare that puts thousands of bitcoin developers around the world at risk of being sent into a cage because the government doesn't like how some users leverage the code they write. To make sure that this isn't a problem down the line it is imperative that we pass the Blockchain Regulatory Clarity Act, which would not hold bitcoin developers liable for the ways in which end users leverage their tools.

Not only is this an act that would protect developers from pernicious government officials targeting them when end users use their technology in a way that doesn't make the government happy, it will also protect YOU, the end user, looking to transact in a peer-to-peer fashion and leverage all of the incredible properties of bitcoin the way they were meant to be. If the developers are not protected, they will not be able to build the technology that enables you to leverage bitcoin.

So do your part and go to saveourwallets.org. Reach out to your local representatives in Congress and Senators and make some noise. Let them know that this is something that you care deeply about and that they should not only pay attention to this bill but push it forward and enshrine it into law as quickly as possible.

There are currently many developers either behind bars or under house arrest for developing software that gives you the ability to use Bitcoin in a self-sovereign fashion and use it in a privacy-preserving way. Financial privacy isn't a crime. It is an inalienable human right that should be protected at all cost. The enshrinement of this inalienable right into law is way past due.

Introdução

O princípio do sola scriptura, pedra angular da teologia protestante desde a Reforma do século XVI, estabelece que apenas a Escritura constitui a autoridade final e suprema em questões de fé e prática cristã. Este princípio, formulado inicialmente por Martinho Lutero e sistematizado pelos reformadores subsequentes, pretende oferecer um fundamento epistemológico sólido para a teologia, livre das supostas corrupções da tradição eclesiástica.

Contudo, uma análise rigorosa revela que o sola scriptura incorre em contradições lógicas fundamentais que comprometem sua viabilidade como sistema epistemológico coerente. Este artigo examina essas contradições através de três perspectivas complementares: filosófica, exegética e histórica.

A Contradição Performativa Fundamental

O Problema da Autoreferência

O sola scriptura enfrenta um dilema epistemológico insuperável: afirma que apenas a Escritura possui autoridade final em matéria de fé, mas essa própria regra não é explicitamente ensinada na Escritura. Trata-se de uma contradição performativa clássica, onde o enunciado viola suas próprias condições de possibilidade.

Esta situação configura uma falácia de petitio principii (círculo vicioso), pois exige que se aceite uma doutrina que não pode ser sustentada pelas premissas do próprio sistema. Para estabelecer o sola scriptura, seria necessário recorrer a uma autoridade externa à Escritura – precisamente aquilo que o princípio pretende rejeitar.

Fundacionalismo Mal Estruturado

Do ponto de vista epistemológico, o sola scriptura apresenta-se como um fundacionalismo defeituoso. Pretende funcionar como axioma supremo e auto-evidente, mas falha ao não fornecer a base textual que sua própria metodologia exige. Um verdadeiro fundacionalismo escriturístico deveria ser capaz de demonstrar sua validade através de uma prova explícita nas próprias Escrituras.

O Testemunho Contrário das Escrituras

Limitações do Registro Escrito

A própria Escritura reconhece as limitações do registro textual. João 21:25 declara explicitamente: "Jesus fez também muitas outras coisas. Se cada uma delas fosse escrita, penso que nem mesmo no mundo inteiro haveria espaço suficiente para os livros que seriam escritos."

Este versículo é particularmente problemático para o sola scriptura, pois reconhece que nem todos os ensinamentos de Cristo foram preservados por escrito. Como pode a Escritura ser suficiente se ela própria admite sua incompletude?

A Valorização da Tradição Oral

Paulo, em 2 Tessalonicenses 2:15, oferece uma instrução que contradiz frontalmente o sola scriptura: "Assim, pois, irmãos, ficai firmes e conservai os ensinamentos que de nós aprendestes, seja por palavras, seja por carta nossa."

O apóstolo valoriza inequivocamente tanto a tradição oral ("por palavras") quanto a escrita ("por carta"), estabelecendo um modelo de autoridade dual que o protestantismo posterior rejeitaria.

A Necessidade de Autoridade Interpretativa

A narrativa do eunuco etíope em Atos 8:30-31 demonstra a inadequação da Escritura isolada como autoridade final. Quando Filipe pergunta se o eunuco entende o que lê, a resposta é reveladora: "Como poderei entender, se alguém não me ensinar?"

Este episódio ilustra que a mera posse do texto bíblico não garante compreensão adequada. É necessária uma autoridade interpretativa externa – no caso, representada por Filipe, que age com autoridade apostólica.

A Complexidade Hermenêutica

Pedro, em sua segunda epístola (3:16-17), reconhece a dificuldade interpretativa inerente às Escrituras: "Suas cartas contêm algumas coisas difíceis de entender, as quais os ignorantes e instáveis torcem, como também o fazem com as demais Escrituras, para a própria destruição deles."

Esta passagem não apenas reconhece a complexidade hermenêutica dos textos sagrados, mas também alerta sobre os perigos da interpretação inadequada. Implicitamente, sugere a necessidade de uma autoridade interpretativa confiável para evitar distorções doutrinárias.

O Paradoxo Histórico da Canonização

A Dependência da Tradição Eclesiástica

Um dos argumentos mais devastadores contra o sola scriptura emerge da própria história da formação do cânon bíblico. Os concílios de Hipona (393 d.C.) e Cartago (397 d.C.) foram responsáveis pela definição oficial do cânon das Escrituras tal como conhecemos hoje.

Este fato histórico cria um paradoxo insuperável: aceitar a Bíblia como autoridade única requer aceitar a autoridade da tradição eclesiástica que a definiu. O próprio cânon bíblico é produto da tradição apostólica e da deliberação conciliar, não de autodefinição escriturística.

A Circularidade da Autopistia

Tentativas protestantes de resolver este dilema através do conceito de "autopistia" – a suposta capacidade das Escrituras de se auto-autenticar – apenas aprofundam o problema circular. Como determinar que as Escrituras possuem esta propriedade sem recorrer a critérios externos? A própria doutrina da autopistia não é explicitamente ensinada na Escritura.

Implicações Teológicas e Epistemológicas

A Fragmentação Interpretativa

A história do protestantismo oferece evidência empírica das consequências práticas do sola scriptura. A multiplicação de denominações e interpretações divergentes sugere que o princípio, longe de fornecer clareza doutrinária, pode na verdade contribuir para a fragmentação teológica.

Se a Escritura fosse verdadeiramente suficiente e auto-interpretativa, seria razoável esperar maior convergência hermenêutica entre aqueles que aderem ao sola scriptura. A realidade histórica sugere o contrário.

A Alternativa Católica e Ortodoxa

As tradições católica e ortodoxa, embora enfrentando suas próprias tensões epistemológicas, mantêm pelo menos coerência interna ao reconhecer explicitamente múltiplas fontes complementares de autoridade: Escritura, Tradição e Magistério (no caso católico) ou Escritura e Tradição (no caso ortodoxo).

Estas posições evitam a contradição performativa do sola scriptura ao não reivindicar que sua própria metodologia epistemológica seja derivada exclusivamente da Escritura.

Conclusão

A análise crítica do sola scriptura revela contradições estruturais que comprometem fundamentalmente sua viabilidade como princípio epistemológico. O princípio incorre em contradição performativa ao estabelecer uma regra que não pode ser derivada de suas próprias premissas, configura um fundacionalismo mal estruturado ao carecer de base textual explícita, e enfrenta o testemunho contrário da própria Escritura, que reconhece suas limitações e a necessidade de autoridades interpretativas externas.

O paradoxo histórico da canonização – onde o próprio cânon bíblico depende da autoridade tradicional que o sola scriptura pretende rejeitar – representa talvez o golpe mais decisivo contra o princípio protestante.

Isso não implica necessariamente a falsidade do protestantismo como sistema teológico, mas sugere que seus fundamentos epistemológicos requerem reformulação substancial. Uma teologia protestante intelectualmente honesta precisaria reconhecer as limitações do sola scriptura e desenvolver uma epistemologia mais nuançada que leve em conta a complexidade das fontes de autoridade religiosa.

A busca pela verdade teológica, independentemente de compromissos confessionais, exige o reconhecimento rigoroso das limitações e contradições inerentes aos nossos sistemas epistemológicos. No caso do sola scriptura, essa honestidade intelectual revela um princípio que, por mais central que seja para a identidade protestante, não pode sustentar o peso epistemológico que tradicionalmente lhe foi atribuído.

Lengyelország előrelépése az első atomerőmű építésében

Lengyelország állami nukleáris vállalata, a Polskie Elektrownie Jadrowe (PEJ) és egy amerikai konzorcium – élén a Westinghouse és a Bechtel cégekkel – mérnöki fejlesztési megállapodást kötött. Ez a szerződés kulcsfontosságú lépés az ország első atomerőművének megvalósítása felé, lehetővé téve a részletes mérnöki és helyszínspecifikus munkák megkezdését. A lengyel kormány ezt mérföldkőnek tekinti az energiaszuverenitás és a dekarbonizáció felé vezető úton.

Amerikai politika: lendület az új nukleáris technológiáknak

Az Egyesült Államok kormánya elnöki rendeletet adott ki, amely reformokat vezet be a nukleáris reaktorok tesztelésében az Energiaügyi Minisztériumnál. A cél az új generációs reaktorok – köztük mikroreaktorok és kis moduláris reaktorok (SMR-ek) – fejlesztésének és engedélyezésének felgyorsítása, valamint a környezetvédelmi vizsgálatok egyszerűsítése. A rendelet legalább három új reaktor kritikus üzembe helyezését célozza meg 2026 júliusáig, támogatva ezzel az ipari alkalmazások széles körét, például adatközpontokat vagy hidrogéntermelést. Az intézkedés célja, hogy az USA visszaszerezze vezető szerepét a nukleáris innovációban, és csökkentse a korábbi években felhalmozódott engedélyezési akadályokat.

Kis moduláris reaktorok (SMR) fejlesztése világszerte

Az SMR-szektorban világszerte jelentős előrelépések történtek: - Az amerikai Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) benyújtotta az első építési kérelmet egy GE Hitachi BWRX-300 SMR-re a Clinch River telephelyen. - Kanadában az Ontario Power Generation engedélyt kapott az első, négy tervezett SMR megépítésének megkezdésére a Darlington telephelyen. - Belgium és Brazília innovatív SMR-technológiákat vizsgál, köztük ólom-hűtésű reaktorokat és nemzetközi együttműködéseket. - Olyan technológiai óriások, mint a Google, az USA-ban korai fázisú fejlett nukleáris projektekbe fektetnek, ami a magánszektor növekvő érdeklődését mutatja.

Globális ipari és pénzügyi támogatás a nukleáris bővítéshez

Széles körű koalíció – köztük olyan nagyvállalatok, mint az Amazon, Google, Meta, Dow – és pénzügyi intézmények kötelezték el magukat amellett, hogy 2050-re megháromszorozzák a globális nukleáris kapacitást. Ez összhangban van az ENSZ klímacsúcsain tett vállalásokkal, ahol már 31 ország támogatja a nukleáris energia megháromszorozását a nettó zéró kibocsátási célok eléréséhez. Az amerikai kongresszus olyan törvényjavaslatokat készít elő, amelyek lehetővé tennék, hogy a multilaterális fejlesztési bankok – például a Világbank – is finanszírozhassanak nukleáris projekteket, megszüntetve ezzel a korábbi tiltásokat.

Közelgő nemzetközi nukleáris biztonsági gyakorlat

A Nemzetközi Atomenergia-ügynökség (IAEA) készül a ConvEx-3 vészhelyzeti gyakorlatára, amelyet 2025. június 24–25-én Romániában tartanak. A gyakorlat egy súlyos nukleáris vészhelyzetet szimulál a cernavodai atomerőműben, tesztelve a tagállamok és nemzetközi szervezetek felkészültségét és reagálóképességét. A ConvEx-3 a legmagasabb szintű IAEA vészhelyzeti gyakorlat, kulcsszerepet játszik a globális nukleáris biztonság és védelem erősítésében.

Politikai bizonytalanság Dél-Korea nukleáris terveiben

Dél-Korea 2025. június 3-i elnökválasztása hatással lehet az ország nukleáris reneszánszára. A vezető jelölt, Lee Jae-myung kijelentette, hogy „egyelőre” fenntartaná a nukleáris energiát, de hosszabb távon a megújulók felé mozdulna el. Ez bizonytalanságot okoz a koreai nukleáris ipar hazai és exportterveiben, ami kihatással lehet a globális ellátási láncokra és külföldi reaktorprojektekre is.

Iparági trendek és további fejlemények

• Japán új energiastratégiája maximalizálni kívánja a nukleáris energia részarányát, 2040-re mintegy 20%-ot célozva, különös hangsúlyt fektetve a következő generációs reaktorokra és a biztonság növelésére.
• Belgium kormánya és a francia Engie közműcég megállapodott a kulcsfontosságú reaktorok üzemidejének tízéves meghosszabbításáról, ami az európai nukleáris pálfordulás újabb jele.
• Az IAEA és a World Nuclear Association egyaránt növekvő nemzetközi érdeklődésről számol be az SMR-ek és fejlett reaktortechnológiák iránt, új projektek és partnerségek indulnak Ázsiában, Európában és Amerikában.

Sberbank, Russia’s Biggest Bank, Launches Structured Bond Tied to Bitcoin 

Sberbank, the largest bank in Russia, has launched a new structured bond that ties investor returns to the performance of Bitcoin and the U.S. dollar-to-ruble exchange rate. This new financial product represents one of the first moves by a major Russian institution to offer Bitcoin-linked investments under recently updated national regulations.

BREAKING: Russia's largest bank Sberbank launches structured bonds linked to Bitcoin. pic.twitter.com/LtD26jPS0x

— Bitcoin Magazine (@BitcoinMagazine) June 2, 2025

The structured bond is initially available over the counter to a limited group of qualified investors. According to the announcement, it allows investors to earn based on two factors: the price performance of BTC in U.S. dollars and any strengthening of the dollar compared to the Russian ruble.

Unlike typical Bitcoin investments, this product does not require the use of a Bitcoin wallet or foreign platforms. “All transactions [are] processed in rubles within Russia’s legal and infrastructure systems,” Sberbank stated, highlighting compliance with domestic financial protocols.

In addition to the bond, Sberbank has announced plans to launch similar structured investment products with Bitcoin exposure on the Moscow Exchange. The bank also revealed it will introduce a Bitcoin futures product via its SberInvestments platform on June 4, aligning with the product’s debut on the Moscow Exchange.

These developments follow a recent policy change by the Bank of Russia, which now permits financial institutions to offer Bitcoin-linked instruments to qualified investors. This shift opens the door for Bitcoin within the country’s traditional financial markets.

While Russia has previously taken a cautious approach to digital assets, Sberbank’s launch of a Bitcoin-linked bond and upcoming futures product marks a new phase of adoption—one that blends Bitcoin exposure with existing financial infrastructure.

The bank’s structured bond may signal a growing interest in regulated access to Bitcoin, especially within large financial institutions.

The blockchain analytics firm claims to have identified the Bitcoin addresses held by the company led by Saylor.

Arkham Intelligence announced it had identified addresses linked to Strategy. According to Arkham’s statements, an additional 70,816 BTC connected to the company have been identified, with an estimated value of around $7.6 billion at current prices. This discovery would bring the total amount of Strategy’s identified holdings to $54.5 billion.

SAYLOR SAID HE WOULD NEVER REVEAL HIS ADDRESSES … SO WE DID

We have identified an additional 70,816 BTC belonging to Strategy, bringing our total identified MSTR BTC holdings to $54.5 Billion. We are the first to publicly identify these holdings.

This represents 87.5% of… pic.twitter.com/P3OVdVrhQL

— Arkham (@arkham) May 28, 2025

The analytics firm claims to have mapped 87.5% of Strategy’s total holdings. In a provocative post on X, Arkham wrote:

“Saylor said he would never reveal his addresses. So, we did it for him.
Previously, we tagged:
– 107,000 BTC sent to MSTR’s Fidelity deposits (Fidelity does not segregate custody, so these BTC do not appear in the MSTR entity)
– Over 327,000 BTC held in segregated custody, including Coinbase Prime, in our MSTR entity.”

Arkham’s revelations directly clash with Michael Saylor’s public statements on wallet security. During the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas, the Strategy chairman explicitly warned against publishing corporate wallet addresses.

“No institutional or enterprise security analyst would ever think it’s a good idea to publish all the wallet addresses so you can be tracked back and forth,” Saylor said during the event.

The executive chairman of Strategy added:

“The current, conventional way to publish proof-of-reserves is an insecure proof of reserves… It’s not a good idea, it’s a bad idea.”

He compared publishing wallet addresses to “publishing the addresses, bank accounts, and phone numbers of your kids hoping it will protect them — when in fact it makes them more vulnerable.”

Finally, the executive chairman suggested using artificial intelligence to explore the security implications of such a practice, claiming that in-depth research could produce “50 pages” of potential security risks.

As some of you know, I lead a quarterly Bible Study through Faith Driven Investor

One of the members from the cohort that just ended forwarded me an email from the US Christian Chamber of Commerce

The summary is: Christians should intentionally be doing more business with Christians.

[Full email at the bottom of this Article]

---

I recanted to my FDI member about a book I read a few years ago, Thou Shall Prosper, by Rabbi Daniel Lapin.

In it he gave the statistics that a single dollar recirculates in the Jewish community 12 times, Muslims 8 times, and Christians only 3 or 4 times.

(I'm probably slightly off on recalling the stats)

But the point being that as a people group, Jews are 4x more wealthy than Christians because Christians value doing business with one another 4 times less than Jews...or said another way, the Jewish people value doing business with one another 4x more than Christians.

Reading the email I was sent, I was further reminded as business owners, leaders, and investors;

If we are truly going to steward that which God has entrusted to us, we should want to re-circulate those resources as many times as possible within the Christian community in order to have the greatest probability of return on image bearers.

What are your thoughts?

I Bought a House Through the Christian Chamber - What happened next surprised me

My husband and I just bought a house—but it wasn’t just a transaction. It was a transformation.

With our daughter’s high school graduation behind us, we felt ready to step into a long-held dream: moving to a beach town we’ve thought, talked, and prayed about for years. As part of turning our dream into a reality, we made a very intentional decision:

We would buy our home entirely through the Christian Chamber community.

We wanted to walk the talk—to model what Kingdom commerce really looks like. So we sought Christian-led businesses for every part of the process. What started as a symbolic gesture quickly became a profound experience with two life-changing revelations:

1) The Power of Prayer in Business

Yes, we prayed as a couple—but imagine your Realtor, lender, inspector, and insurance agent all praying with you, too.

We’re not talking about just being “nice people” or listening to worship in the office. We’re talking about Spirit-filled, Jesus-following believers who brought prayer into every decision.

· Our Realtor is also a church planter—her discernment helped us find the perfect house on day one.

· Our lender joined us in prayer—and worked miracles to make the deal smooth and abundantly possible.

· Our inspector's biggest red flag? A bird’s nest in a porch light. (Yes, really.)

· Our insurance agent handled everything—and in Florida, that’s no small feat.

I have bought and sold seven homes in my life, but this was the best experience by far. The layout, the location, the timing, the favor—it was all wrapped in prayer and covered in grace. It wasn’t just business. It was supernatural.

2) Kingdom ROI — A Multiplied Impact

By doing business with Christians, we didn’t just find great service. We created a multiplied Kingdom return.

We know where our vendors give. We know the churches they support, the ministries they fund, and the people they serve.

When they earned from our purchase, those dollars didn’t disappear—they were reinvested into Kingdom causes we could never reach on our own.

This is Kingdom ROI.

It’s a real-life example of the parable of the talents—we didn’t bury our resources. We multiplied them. When you spend money with aligned believers, your impact compounds.

The opposite is also true:

When we spend with businesses that oppose our values, we’re funding platforms that erode the very things we’re trying to protect—our families, our freedoms, and our faith.

We MUST STOP funding the enemy.

The Bigger Picture

Let’s be clear: Studies show that Christians make up 31% of the world’s population, but we control 55% of the world’s wealth—more than $107 trillion in personal assets.

And yet…we’re leaking that wealth into systems that are actively working against us.

Why? Because we do not have the infrastructure to keep it aligned.

Until now.

That’s what we’re building through the U.S. Christian Chamber of Commerce: A national infrastructure that empowers Christians to redirect their dollars, align their values, and multiply their impact.

What If You Did the Same?

· Buy your next product or service from a Christian-led business.

· Hire your next contractor from your local Christian Chamber.

· Invest in a company with eternal impact.

· Launch a Christian Chamber in your region—we’ll help you.

Marty's Bent

It's been a pretty historic week for the United States as it pertains to geopolitical relations in the Middle East. President Trump and many members of his administration, including AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, traveled across the Middle East making deals with countries like Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Syria, and others. Many are speculating that Iran may be included in some behind the scenes deal as well. This trip to the Middle East makes sense considering the fact that China is also vying for favorable relationships with those countries. The Middle East is a power player in the world, and it seems pretty clear that Donald Trump is dead set on ensuring that they choose the United States over China as the world moves towards a more multi-polar reality.

Many are calling the events of this week the Riyadh Accords. There were many deals that were struck in relation to artificial intelligence, defense, energy and direct investments in the United States. A truly prolific power play and demonstration of deal-making ability of Donald Trump, if you ask me. Though I will admit some of the numbers that were thrown out by some of the countries were a bit egregious. We shall see how everything plays out in the coming years. It will be interesting to see how China reacts to this power move by the United States.

While all this was going on, there was something happening back in the United States that many people outside of fringe corners of FinTwit are not talking about, which is the fact that the 10-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yields are back on the rise. Yesterday, they surpassed the levels of mid-April that caused a market panic and are hovering back around levels that have not been seen since right before Donald Trump's inauguration.

I imagine that there isn't as much of an uproar right now because I'm pretty confident the media freakouts we were experiencing in mid-April were driven by the fact that many large hedge funds found themselves off sides of large levered basis trades. I wouldn't be surprised if those funds have decreased their leverage in those trades and bond yields being back to mid-April levels is not affecting those funds as much as they were last month. But the point stands, the 10-year and 30-year yields are significantly elevated with the 30-year approaching 5%. Regardless of the deals that are currently being made in the Middle East, the Treasury has a big problem on its hands. It still has to roll over many trillions worth of debt over over the next few years and doing so at these rates is going to be massively detrimental to fiscal deficits over the next decade. The interest expense on the debt is set to explode in the coming years.

On that note, data from the first quarter of 2025 has been released by the government and despite all the posturing by the Trump administration around DOGE and how tariffs are going to be beneficial for the U.S. economy, deficits are continuing to explode while the interest expense on the debt has definitively surpassed our annual defense budget.

To make matters worse, as things are deteriorating on the fiscal side of things, the U.S. consumer is getting crushed by credit. The 90-plus day delinquency rates for credit card and auto loans are screaming higher right now.

via TXMC

One has to wonder how long all this can continue without some sort of liquidity crunch. Even though equities markets have recovered from their post-Liberation Day month long bear market, I would not be surprised if what we're witnessing is a dead cat bounce that can only be continued if the money printers are turned back on. Something's got to give, both on the fiscal side and in the private markets where the Common Man is getting crushed because he's been forced to take on insane amounts of debt to stay afloat after years of elevated levels of inflation. Add on the fact that AI has reached a state of maturity that will enable companies to replace their current meat suit workers with an army of cheap, efficient and fast digital workers and it isn't hard to see that some sort of employment crisis could be on the horizon as well.

Now is not the time to get complacent. While I do believe that the deals that are currently being made in the Middle East are probably in the best interest of the United States as the world, again, moves toward a more multi-polar reality, we are facing problems that one cannot simply wish away. They will need to be confronted. And as we've seen throughout the 21st century, the problems are usually met head-on with a money printer.

I take no pleasure in saying this because it is a bit uncouth to be gleeful to benefit from the strife of others, but it is pretty clear to me that all signs are pointing to bitcoin benefiting massively from everything that is going on. The shift towards a more multi-polar world, the runaway debt situation here in the United States, the increasing deficits, the AI job replacements and the consumer credit crisis that is currently unfolding, All will need to be "solved" by turning on the money printers to levels they've never been pushed to before.

Weird times we're living in.

China's Manufacturing Dominance: Why It Matters for the U.S.

In my recent conversation with Lyn Alden, she highlighted how China has rapidly ascended the manufacturing value chain. As Lyn pointed out, China transformed from making "sneakers and plastic trinkets" to becoming the world's largest auto exporter in just four years. This dramatic shift represents more than economic success—it's a strategic power play. China now dominates solar panel production with greater market control than OPEC has over oil and maintains near-monopoly control of rare earth elements crucial for modern technology.

"China makes like 10 times more steel than the United States does... which is relevant in ship making. It's relevant in all sorts of stuff." - Lyn Alden

Perhaps most concerning, as Lyn emphasized, is China's financial leverage. They hold substantial U.S. assets that could be strategically sold to disrupt U.S. treasury market functioning. This combination of manufacturing dominance, resource control, and financial leverage gives China significant negotiating power in any trade disputes, making our attempts to reshoring manufacturing all the more challenging.

…. “คนเรา โดยเฉพาะสมัยนี้ พูดกันอีกที่หนึ่งก็พูดได้ว่า ถูกสร้างขึ้นมาด้วยหนังสือ, หนังสือมันสร้างคนขึ้นมา คือว่า..อ่านหนังสืออะไรมาก อ่านหนังสืออะไรมาก หนังสือนั้นก็สร้างคนคนนั้นขึ้นมา, สร้างจิตใจของคนนั้นขึ้นมา โดยไม่รู้สึก

…. ไปดูหนังสือที่เขาอ่าน อ่านมากที่สุด เราก็รู้ได้ว่า..คนนี้มีจิตใจเป็นอย่างไร. หนังสือที่นิยมสั่งกันมามาก ล้วนแต่เป็นหนังสือที่ยั่วยวนทางวัตถุ หรือลุ่มหลงทางวัตถุ : แล้วอย่างดีที่สุดก็เอามาให้เสียเวลา อ่านให้มันมึนหัวเล่น อย่างนั้นแหละ จนไม่มีเวลาที่จะไปอ่านหนังสือธรรมะที่แท้จริง เพราะว่ามีหนังสืออื่นมาก วางอยู่มาก ยั่วยวนให้อ่านมากกว่า

…. แม้แต่พระเณร ก็เป็นอย่างนี้ อ่านหนังสือพิมพ์, หรืออ่านหนังสือภาษา, เรียนภาษาต่างประเทศ หรือว่าเรียนวิชานั่น นี่ ล้วนแต่เป็นเรื่องวัตถุ เรื่องอาชีพ เรื่องความดีความเด่น ที่ฝันไว้ในจิตในใจ, ด้วยความหวังความทะเยอทะยานทั้งนั้น แล้วจะเอากําลังใจ หรือมันสมอง หรืออะไรที่ไหนมาเข้าใจ ธรรมะ ธัมโม ได้

…. ทีนี้ ยิ่งนอกวัดออกไป ก็ยิ่งไกลไปใหญ่ : หอสมุดของมหาวิทยาลัย, หอสมุดของชาติ ของอะไร ก็ล้วนแต่เป็น “หอสมุดของซาตาน” มากยิ่งขึ้นเท่านั้น เพราะไปมีมันขึ้น หรือสร้างมันไว้ ด้วยความอยากดีอยากเด่น ด้วยความอยากที่จะร่ำรวยวัตถุทั้งนั้น ฉะนั้น จึงมีผลทําให้คนทั้งโลกนี้เป็นทาสของวัตถุ พร้อมที่จะสร้างวิกฤตการณ์ ขึ้นในโลกในอนาคต

When the whales cry for help: crypto trader's $100M bet turns community funding experiment

A multimillionaire trader just placed a second $100 million Bitcoin bet days after being liquidated, but what's truly revolutionary isn't the size—it's how he's funding it. James Wynn has turned to the crypto community for donations, receiving stablecoins from 24 users to "fight the market-making cabal" he claims is targeting his positions. This unprecedented crowdfunded leverage experiment raises fascinating questions about market manipulation, community solidarity, and the blurring lines between individual and collective risk in crypto trading.

Is this the birth of community-backed whale trading? Or simply a desperate gambler's last stand? Either way, it reveals how blockchain transparency creates entirely new social dynamics around trading that would be impossible in traditional markets. What happens when your liquidation becomes everyone's battle?

Would you donate to protect a stranger's $100M position? The answer might reveal more about crypto's future than any price prediction.

***Achtung Spreng-Arbeiten!***

Der verbliebene intakte Strang der Nordstream Pipeline soll jetzt von Deutschland mit einem hochexplosiven 18. Sanktionspaket gesprengt werden, damit Putin nicht, wie schon in Kursk, Truppen durch das Rohr schickt, und so doch noch in Schwedt anlandend auf deutschem Boden eine russische Invasion stattfinden kann.

***Kriegserklärung***

Deutschland hat Deutschland den Krieg erklärt. Zunächst freiwillig, doch wenn es nicht von allein noch schlimmer wird, wird es eine Kriegspflicht geben müssen. Kriegstreibende Propaganda und der intensive Ausbau des Feindbilds sollen die Bevölkerung dahingehend umstimmen, weil Frieden doch auf die Dauer sehr langweilig ist.

***Verwechslung***

Bei der Einstellung der Außenbeauftragten der Europäischen Union ist es zu einer Verwechslung gekommen. Ursprünglich wollte man Maria Callas einstellen, doch dann stellte man fest, dass diese begnadete Stimme leider nicht mehr unter uns weilt.

***Bedingungslose Kapitulation***

Anlässlich der Bereicherung der UN durch die Präsidentschaft der ehemaligen deutschen Außen-Dings, haben die Vereinten Nationen direkt nach der unerklärlichen Wahl vorsorglich ihre Bedingungslose Kapitulation gegenüber allen Nationen bekannt gegeben. Alle von der Präsidentin getroffenen Aussagen haben vorläufigen Charakter und werden aufgrund der Fremdsprachlichkeit der Präsidentin auf ihren korrekten Inhalt hin nachträglich überprüft.

***Mehrfach gesichert ***

Ein gesichert staatsfinanziertes Rechercheportal hat durch investigative Recherche herausgefunden, dass der neue Papst gesichert katholisch ist. Es konnte nicht nur eine Nähe festgestellt werden, sondern es wurde sogar gesichert nachgewiesen, dass es sich um dieselbe katholische Kirche handelt, die schon seinerzeit in der Inquisition Hexen und Ketzer verbrannt hat.

***Gleichbehandlung***

Nachdem es in Spanien und Portugal und zuletzt auch in Südfrankreich zu einem Stromausfall gekommen ist, hat die deutsche Regierung beim Europäischen Gerichtshof Klage eingereicht. Im Zuge der Gleichbehandlung aller Nationen will Deutschland nun das Recht auf einen eigenen Black-Out für mindestens zwei Tage einklagen.

***Problem fehlender Wohnungen gelöst***

Aufgrund der Wohnungsknappheit hat die deutsche Regierung nun einen Fond aufgelegt, aus dem jede Familie 35.000 Euro Starthilfe erhält, wenn sie für mindestens 10 Jahre das Land verlässt. Es kam bereits zu ersten Ausreisen, bevor noch die Starthilfe ausgezahlt werden konnte.

***Bürokratieabbau***

Zum schnellen und effizienten Bürokratieabbau wird ein neues Ministerium für Komplikationen mit mindestens 5.000 Mitarbeitern eingerichtet, um den überbordenden Verordnungs- und Bürokratiesumpf auszutrocknen. Derzeit warten nur noch wenige 100 Beamte darauf, dass ihnen Arbeit zugewiesen wird.

***‘Aufruf an die deutsche Bevölkerung***

Die deutschen Haushalte werden gebeten, vorhandene Küchensiebe der Bundesregierung zur Verfügung zu stellen. Die vorhandenen Sieblöcher sollen zugelötet und die Siebe so als Alu- oder Edelstahlhelme für die Bundeswehr zur bevorstehenden gemeinsamen Invasion der USA und Russlands in Deutschland verwendet werden. Weiter sollen ausgediente Heizöltanks auf die Ladeflächen offener Pritschenwagen installiert werden, um die in Deutschland verbliebenen Panzer betanken zu können.

***Long-Pipeline oder Post-Gas?***

Deutschland will nicht, dass Nordstream wieder in Betrieb genommen wird, weil das russische Gas Verunreinigungen, unter anderem auch Nano-Partikel enthält, dass den deutschen Gasthermen Schaden zufügen könnte. Das erklärt auch, warum die deutsche Aufklärung zur Sprengung der Nordstream-Pipelines im Sande verlaufen ist: Zu explosiv!

***Mielke: Ich liebe doch alle Menschen…***

Gerüchten zufolge soll der berühmt gewordene Satz von Erich Mielke in seiner ersten und einzigen Rede vor der DDR-Volkskammer am 13.11.1989 den amtierenden deutschen Außenminister sehr inspiriert haben: Ich hasse…ich hasse doch alle, alle Russen… ich hasse doch, ich setze mich dafür ein… dass Russland immer unser Feind sein wird!

***Durchbruch in der Quantenphysik***

Deutschen Quantenphysikern ist es gelungen, dass Taurus zur gleichen Zeit sowohl noch in Deutschland, als auch schon in der Ukraine sein kann. Lediglich die Eingabe der Zielkoordinaten bereitet den Programmierern noch Schwierigkeiten. Je nachdem, wo sich der Taurus gerade befindet, kann das Hauptstadt-Ziel sowohl Berlin, als auch Moskau sein.

***Selbstjustiz***

Die verantwortlichen Politiker während des Corona-Ereignisses haben ein Gerichtsverfahren ins Leben gerufen, in dem sie sich gegenseitig beschuldigt und verurteilt haben. Anschließend begab man sich unter Polizeischutz in ein bekanntes Promi-Lokal in Berlin und fuhr danach weiter zur Selbsteinweisung nach Bauzen.

***Kaiser’s Sektsteuer***

Um die seinerzeit eingeführte Sektsteuer zum Aufbau der deutschen Kriegsmarine wieder ihrem ursprünglichen Zweck zuzuführen, hat die Meyer-Werft sich bereit erklärt, Fregatten zu bauen, mit der die Deutsche Marine dann Panzerkreuzerfahrten in der Ostsee vor Königsberg veranstalten will. Schon wenige Tage nach Bekanntgabe waren die ersten Vergnügungsdampferfahrten mit „Meine Fregatte“ komplett ausgebucht.

James Wynn just placed his second massive Bitcoin bet after being liquidated days ago, and now claims market makers are deliberately targeting his position.

“สุขเวทนา” ที่แท้ก็คือ “มายา”
เป็นเหมือนลูกคลื่นลูกหนึ่ง
ที่เกิดขึ้นเพราะน้ำถูกลมพัด
เดี๋ยวมันก็แตกกระจายไป

หากต้องการจะมีชีวิตอย่างเกษมแล้ว
ก็ต้องอาศัยความรู้เรื่อง อนิจจัง ทุกขัง อนัตตา ให้สมบูรณ์
มันจะต่อต้านกันได้กับอารมณ์ คือ รูป เสียง กลิ่น รส สัมผัส ที่มากระทบ
ไม่ให้ไปหลงรัก หรือหลงเกลียด

เรื่องวุ่นวายมีอยู่ ๒ อย่างเท่านั้น

1. ไปหลงรัก อย่างหนึ่ง
2. ไปหลงเกลียด อย่างหนึ่ง

ซึ่งเป็นเหตุให้หัวเราะและต้องร้องไห้
ถ้าใครมองเห็นว่า หัวเราะก็กระหืดกระหอบ มันเหนื่อยเหมือนกัน
ร้องไห้ก็กระหืดกระหอบ เหมือนกัน
สู้อยู่เฉย ๆ ดีกว่า อย่าต้องหัวเราะ อย่าต้องร้องไห้
นี่แหละ! มันเป็นความเกษม

เราอย่าได้ตกไปเป็นทาสของอารมณ์
จนไปหัวเราะหรือร้องไห้ตามที่อารมณ์มายั่ว
เราเป็นอิสระแก่ตัว หยุดอยู่ หรือเกษมอยู่อย่างนี้ดีกว่า

---

ใช้ อนิจจัง ทุกขัง อนัตตา เป็นเครื่องมือกำกับชีวิต

• รูป เสียง กลิ่น รส สัมผัส เป็น มายา เป็น illusion
• "ตัวกู-ของกู" ก็เป็น illusion
• เพราะ "ตัวกู-ของกู" มันเกิดมาจากอารมณ์
• "ตัวกู-ของกู" เป็นมายา อารมณ์ทั้งหลายก็เป็นมายา

เห็นได้ด้วยหลัก อนิจจัง ทุกขัง อนัตตา
...ความทุกข์ก็ไม่เกิด

---

เราจะตัดลัดมองไปดูสิ่งที่เป็น “สุขเวทนา”

สุขเวทนา คือ ความสุขสนุกสนาน เอร็ดอร่อย
ที่เป็นสุขนั้นเรียกว่า “สุขเวทนา”

แต่สุขเวทนา เป็นมายา
เพราะมันเป็นเหมือนลูกคลื่นที่เกิดขึ้นเป็นคราว ๆ
ไม่ใช่ตัวจริงอะไร

ที่พูดดังนี้ก็เพราะว่า
ในบรรดาสิ่งทั้งปวงในโลกทั้งหมดทุกโลก
ไม่ว่าโลกไหน มันมีค่าอยู่ก็ตรงที่ให้เกิดสุขเวทนา

ลองคิดดูให้ดีว่า...
- ท่านศึกษาเล่าเรียนทำไม?
- ท่านประกอบอาชีพ หน้าที่การงานทำไม?
- ท่านสะสมทรัพย์สมบัติ เกียรติยศ ชื่อเสียง พวกพ้องบริวารทำไม?

มันก็เพื่อสุขเวทนาอย่างเดียว
เพราะฉะนั้น แปลว่า อะไร ๆ มันก็มารวมจุดอยู่ที่สุขเวทนาหมด

ฉะนั้น ถ้าเรามีความรู้ในเรื่องนี้
จัดการกับเรื่องนี้ให้ถูกต้องเพียงเรื่องเดียวเท่านั้น
ทุกเรื่องมันถูกหมด

เพราะฉะนั้น จึงต้องดูสุขเวทนาให้ถูกต้องตามที่เป็นจริงว่า
มันก็เป็น “มายา” ชนิดหนึ่ง

เราจะต้องจัดการให้สมกันกับที่มันเป็นมายา
ไม่ใช่ว่า จะต้องไปตั้งข้อรังเกียจ เกลียดชังมัน
อย่างนั้นมันยิ่ง บ้าบอที่สุด

ถ้าเข้าไปหลงรัก หลงเป็นทาสมัน
ก็เป็นเรื่อง บ้าบอที่สุด

แต่ว่าไปจัดการกับมันอย่างไรให้ถูกต้อง
นั้นแหละเป็นธรรมะ
เป็น ลูกศิษย์ของพระพุทธเจ้า
ที่จะเอาชนะความทุกข์ได้ และไม่ต้องเป็น โรคทางวิญญาณ

---

สุขเวทนา ที่แท้ก็คือ มายา

มันก็ต้องทำโดยวิธีที่พิจารณาให้เห็นว่า
“สุขเวทนา” นี้ ที่แท้ก็คือ “มายา”

เป็นเหมือน ลูกคลื่นลูกหนึ่ง
ที่เกิดขึ้นเพราะ น้ำถูกลมพัด

หมายความว่า
เมื่อ รูป เสียง กลิ่น รส ฯ เข้ามา
แล้ว ความโง่ คือ อวิชชา โมหะ ออกรับ
กระทบกันแล้วเป็นคลื่น

กล่าวคือ สุขเวทนาเกิดขึ้นมา
แต่ เดี๋ยวมันก็แตกกระจายไป

---

ถ้ามองเห็นอย่างนี้แล้ว
เราก็ไม่เป็นทาสของสุขเวทนา
เราสามารถ ควบคุม จะจัด จะทำกับมันได้
ในวิธีที่ ไม่เป็นทุกข์

• ตัวเองก็ไม่เป็นทุกข์
• ครอบครัวก็ไม่เป็นทุกข์
• เพื่อนบ้านก็ไม่เป็นทุกข์
• คนทั้งโลกก็ไม่พลอยเป็นทุกข์
  เพราะมีเราเป็นมูลเหตุ

ถ้าทุกคนเป็นอย่างนี้
โลกนี้ก็มีสันติภาพถาวร
เป็นความสุขที่แท้จริงและถาวร

นี่คือ อานิสงส์ของการหายโรคโดยวิธีต่าง ๆ กัน
ไม่เป็นโรค “ตัวกู” ไม่เป็นโรค “ของกู”

"Pleasant Feeling" Is Ultimately an Illusion

It’s like a wave That arises when water is stirred by the wind Soon, it disperses and fades away

If one wishes to live in serenity

One must fully understand the truths of impermanence (anicca), suffering (dukkha), and non-self (anattā). These truths serve as an antidote to emotional responses—forms, sounds, smells, tastes, and touches— Preventing us from falling into attachment or aversion.

There are only two kinds of turmoil in the world:

1. Falling in love with something
2. Falling into hatred of something

These are what lead to laughter and tears. If one can see that laughter makes you breathless, it’s exhausting just the same Crying also makes you breathless, equally tiring Better to remain calm—no need to laugh, no need to cry This is true serenity

Let us not become slaves to emotions, Laughing or crying at their whims. Let us live freely. Better to remain still and serene.

---

Use Impermanence, Suffering, and Non-Self as Life's Compass

• Forms, sounds, smells, tastes, and touches are illusions
• The notion of "me and mine" is also an illusion
• Because "me and mine" arise from emotional reactions
• Therefore, "me and mine" is an illusion, and so are all emotions

By understanding impermanence, suffering, and non-self, ...suffering does not arise.

---

Let us take a shortcut and look directly at “pleasant feeling”

Pleasant feeling refers to happiness, enjoyment, delight— That which feels good is called “pleasant feeling” (sukha-vedanā)

But pleasant feeling is an illusion Because it arises like a temporary wave— It’s not a real thing.

This is said because Among all things in all worlds, What gives them value is their ability to produce pleasant feeling.

Think carefully:

• Why do you study?
• Why do you work and perform your duties?
• Why do you accumulate wealth, prestige, fame, allies, followers?

It’s all for pleasant feeling. So everything ultimately revolves around pleasant feeling.

Therefore, if we understand this matter well And handle it properly, even this one thing alone— Then everything else falls into place.

So we must see pleasant feeling for what it really is: Just another kind of illusion

We must deal with it accordingly, Not by rejecting or hating it That would be the most foolish thing

But if we become infatuated with it, Or enslaved by it— That, too, is the most foolish thing

What matters is how we handle it properly That is the Dhamma (truth) That is being a disciple of the Buddha One who can overcome suffering, and not suffer from spiritual disease

---

Pleasant Feeling Is Truly an Illusion

It must be approached with the understanding that: “Pleasant feeling is, in truth, illusion.”

Like a single wave That arises when water is stirred by wind

Which means: When forms, sounds, smells, tastes, and so on come in And ignorance and delusion rise up to meet them They clash, and a wave is formed

That is, pleasant feeling arises But soon it disperses again

---

If we can see it this way, We won’t be slaves to pleasant feeling. We will be able to manage it, deal with it, and use it In ways that don’t lead to suffering

• We won’t suffer ourselves
• Our family won’t suffer
• Our neighbors won’t suffer
• The world won’t suffer either, Because we are no longer the cause of suffering

If everyone were like this, The world would know lasting peace A true and enduring happiness

Summary: Bitcoin's security depends on exponentially decreasing block rewards being compensated by exponentially increasing transaction fees, but fee growth is constrained by the block size limit and user tolerance, creating an inevitable security budget crisis when Bitcoin's price growth inevitably slows from its current exponential trajectory.

At that point, say this century, the average transaction fee should be in the 100k sats range for miners to make collectively ~0.5% of what they're protecting yearly. Currently miners are making ~0.8% yearly.

The less profitable miners are, the easier it is to convince them for attacking the network. And this only gets more economically viable to achieve as time passes and there's a larger price with a smaller relative security budget.

Am I missing something? Are you comfortable with this?

Amboss Launches Rails, a Self-Custodial Bitcoin Yield Service

Amboss, a leader in AI-driven solutions for the Bitcoin Lightning Network, today announced Rails, a groundbreaking self-custodial Bitcoin yield service. According to a press release sent to Bitcoin Magazine, it’s designed to empower companies, custodians, and high net worth individuals. This allows participants to earn a yield on their Bitcoin.

Big news from @TheBitcoinConf !
We’re thrilled to announce Rails—a self-custodial Bitcoin yield service that empowers you to earn on your BTC while supercharging the Lightning Network.

Let’s bring Bitcoin to the World.https://t.co/3WYYvB95hP

— AMBOSS (@ambosstech) May 29, 2025

Rails also launched a secure way for Liquidity Providers (LPs) to hold all custody of their Bitcoin while generating returns from liquidity leases and payment routing, although they are not guaranteed. The implementation of Amboss’ AI technology, Rails strengthened their Lighting Network with more dependable transactions and larger payment volumes.

“Rails is a transformative force for the Lightning Network,” said the CEO and Co-Founder of Amboss Jesse Shrader. “It’s not just about yield—it’s about enabling businesses to strengthen the network while earning on their Bitcoin. This is a critical step in Bitcoin’s evolution as a global medium of exchange.”

The service offers two options: 

• Rails LP is designed for high net worth individuals, custodians, and companies with Bitcoin treasuries, requiring a minimum commitment of 1 BTC for one year. 
• Liquidity subscriptions are designed for businesses that receive Bitcoin payments, with fees starting at 0.5%.

Amboss partnered with CoinCorner and Flux (a joint venture between Axiom and CoinCorner), to bring Rails to the market. CoinCorner has incorporated it into both its exchange platform and daily payment services in the Isle of Man. Flux is jointly focused on advancing the Lightning Network’s presence in global payments. Their participation highlights growing industry trust in Rails as a tool to scale Bitcoin effectively. 

“Rails offers a practical way for businesses like ours to participate in the Lightning Network’s growth,” said the CFO of CoinCorner David Boylan. “We’ve been using the Lightning Network for years, and Rails provides a structured approach to engaging with its economy, particularly through liquidity leasing and payment routing. This aligns with our goal of making Bitcoin more accessible and practical for everyday use.”

When a trader bets $100M on Bitcoin, the market becomes the hunter. James Wynn placed his second massive leveraged position after being liquidated days earlier, claiming market makers are deliberately targeting his $103,640 liquidation level. The crypto community rallied behind him, donating thousands in stablecoins to help "fight the market-making cabal." Meanwhile, Trump's media company seeks SEC approval for a Truth Social Bitcoin ETF, joining the growing trend of corporate Bitcoin treasuries. Tether moved $3.9B in Bitcoin to Twenty One Capital, making it the third-largest corporate holder. Are you watching these high-stakes crypto battles unfold, or participating in them yourself?

If you haven’t read part 1 of this article, you should start there. This second part will build on the information I presented in part one. I’m going beyond just presenting the facts, to try and break down the broader principles behind what makes the Amish culture exceptional and whether any of those principles can be applied to solve the challenges facing the broader cultural landscape.

nostr:naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzp0rve5f6xtu56djkfkkg7ktr5rtfckpun95rgxaa7futy86npx8yqqj8g6r994sk66tndqkkvetjw35kc6t50ykk66tjv93kcefd9pcxzun595cjjn8l4yn

It wasn’t so long ago that the mainstream conversation around population was exclusively focused on the dangers of overpopulation. The fatal flaws in the Malthusian theory had yet to be disproven clearly and obviously by observable demographic trends. That’s been gradually changing, and while it’s hardly a mainstream consensus, concerns about falling birthrates and the risk of population collapse have taken over the population conversion on the political right, and sometimes beyond.

In part 1, I walked through the life of a typical Amish person, male or female, and attempted to highlight some specific characteristics of their culture that contribute to their default large family size. I’m of course making some assumptions in doing that, and you might disagree with my opinion on the relative impact of various cultural factors. But in general, I don’t think I made too many unreasonable inferences. I laid out the facts as clearly as possible, and didn’t go too far beyond that.

In this part, I want to go beyond the facts and into the realm of hypothesis and speculation. That means I don’t have scientific studies or hard data to categorically prove my points. So if you disagree, you’re absolutely welcome to do so, but don’t expect me to tenaciously defend my opinions with reams of hard data and irrefutable evidence. My purpose is to expand the conversation, not to present a definite solution to any perceived problem.

Is there a problem to solve?

For starters, not everyone agrees that globally collapsing fertility is, in fact, a problem to be solved. Although that’s definitely the dominate consensus in the alternative media space, and is reaching a wider audience thanks to the attention of figures like Elon Musk, the average normie still believes the debunked Malthusian hypothesis that human population is on an exponential trajectory to disaster. They’re more likely to view a collapsing global population as a good thing than as an unmitigated disaster in the making. If that’s your view, you aren’t likely to find my writing particularly compelling. But if you are interested in challenging that belief, I point out some of the potential implications of population collapse here.

nostr:naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzp0rve5f6xtu56djkfkkg7ktr5rtfckpun95rgxaa7futy86npx8yqqshqmmsw4kxzarfdahzcttjv4ek7atjvdjhxtpdv9hxgtthv4skcargr7d34a

If you’re already convinced that global below-replacement fertility is a problem to solve, then you’re in the right place.

Is there a solution?

The modern mind rarely stops to evaluate this question. As soon as a problem is presented, we immediately jump to searching for the ideal solution. That’s a foolish, and occasionally catastrophic, mistake. Before searching for a solution, it’s worth considering whether the possibility of a solution even exists, and more importantly, whether a potential solution would have unintended consequences less severe than the problem it’s intended to solve.

Often those questions can’t be answered until some attempts to find a solution have been made. But we should keep them at the top of our minds throughout the search. Otherwise we can easily find ourselves genetically modifying generally harmless diseases in the lab to make them deadly to humans as we search for a “solution” to disease, or cutting down and burning trees to produce electricity as we attempt to “solve” the climate.

When it comes to global fertility, I’ll give you my conclusion first. Yes, there are solutions to this problem. No, they almost certainly won’t be adopted on a large scale. And I’m not sure if that should be considered a failure.

That’s because of the nature of the problem. People act according to incentives. When global population was growing exponentially, that was because of the incentive structures influencing the choices of each individual. Now that the fertility rate has dropped dramatically, and global population is set to peak and collapse, that’s also because of the incentive structures influencing the choices of each individual. Globally.

That means something happened over the past few centuries that upset historical incentive structures globally. There’s every reason to believe that whatever happened was largely an emergent phenomenon. If it was, resetting the incentive structures would mean imposing, somehow, an incentive structure diametrically opposed to the naturally emergent structure. That somehow gives me pause. How certain are we that overruling a global emergent phenomenon is even possible, and if it were, less destructive than the alternative?

Because logically, the current trajectory will become unsustainable at some point. Fertility can’t continue to fall indefinitely, that trend ends in total extinction. So that leaves two alternative outcomes, absent the kind of global intervention I alluded to. One, it does continue to fall, and humans go extinct. I write that one off because it doesn’t align with my worldview, so as far as I’m concerned I know it won’t happen. You’re free to disagree. Or two, fertility continues to fall until the negative effects of falling population destroy the new global incentive structure of the past few centuries through the partial or total collapse of the emergent phenomenon underlying that structure. If you identify what you think that emergent phenomenon is, and conclude that it’s “too big to fail”, you should probably use some imagination and reconsider.

To take it one step further for the really esoteric thinkers, maybe the whole thing is less of a new concept and more of a certain phase of a larger cycle humans keep repeating throughout history. I’ll leave that one to your imagination.

What can we learn about potential solutions from the Amish?

Like I mentioned in part 1, looking at a group like the the Amish in this context is particularly useful. They exist as a sub-group within a larger environment, so that allows us to eliminate a lot of incorrect theories based on their similar circumstances. The Amish live on the same planet, breathe the same air, drink the same water, eat similar food, buy homes in the same housing market, work in the same labor market, etc. That casts significant doubt on a number of very popular theories on why people in America aren’t reproducing.

That leaves us to focus on the significant differences between Amish culture and mainstream American culture with full confidence that the real answer lies somewhere in those differences.

The structure of this article will be something of a stream-of-consciousness. I’m not going to attempt to isolate and breakdown every aspect of Amish culture independent of the whole, because that won’t be useful or accurate. I’m convinced that the factors influencing Amish fertility are best understood as parts of a larger structure, and not as cumulative independent variables. So I’m going to start by taking a birds-eye view of that structure, and then zooming in on how the various pieces support the whole.

Throughout the past few months, I’ve read a lot of material on this topic as I researched and refined my conclusions. To give credit where credit is due, I haven’t found anyone who expresses a view as coherent as the one Johann Kurtz gives in his article

https://becomingnoble.substack.com/p/its-embarrassing-to-be-a-stay-at

This is an excellent and well-thought-out piece, and one that’s rightfully gotten a lot of attention in the alternative media space. It’s only with a great deal of respect and serious hesitation that I disagree with any aspect of his work, and I do so in a spirit of advancing the intellectual discourse rather than any delusions of my superior knowledge or abilities as an author.

The role of status

The primary thesis of Mr. Kurtz’s article is that declining fertility is a consequence of a decline in the status of motherhood compared to the status afforded by various alternative life paths. While it wasn’t the only point I made in part 1 of this article, I did mention the relative status of parenthood within the Amish culture in various contexts. And a few months of research and reflection have convinced me that status is the correct starting point for understanding fertility, both within Amish culture and also more broadly. On that point, Mr. Kurtz and I fully agree. He says,

Specifically, I contend that the basic epistemological assumptions which underpin modern civilization result in the net status outcome of having a child being lower than the status outcomes of various competing undertakings, and that this results in a population-wide hyper-sensitivity to any and all adverse factors which make having children more difficult, whatever these may be in a given society.

That seems to me like a fair assessment of the situation.

And Mr. Kurtz mentions the Amish specifically, so he’s aware of their unusual pattern and has integrated that data into his hypothesis. I believe he’s correct in doing so.

With that said, I want to dive a little deeper into the idea of status and how it relates to the Amish specifically. I think they can give us some insights into the topic that make more sense of the broader cultural landscape.

First off, let’s define status. Mr. Kurtz lays it out this way.

Status, or ‘social status’, is a key field within sociology. The term denotes a universal set of human instincts and behaviors. Status describes the perceived standing of the individual within the group. It denotes their social value and their place within the formal and informal hierarchies which comprise a society. It finds expression in the behaviors of deference, access, inclusion, approval, acclaim, respect, and honor (and indeed in their opposites - rejection, ostracization, humiliation, and so forth).

Higher status individuals are trusted with influential decisions (power), participation in productive ventures (resources), social support (health), and access to desirable mates (reproduction).

Gaining status is a motivation for each individual to productively participate in society. Status is gained and maintained through approved behaviors (achievement, etiquette, defending the group) and through the possession of recognized ‘status symbols’ (titles, wealth, important physical assets).

As he points out, status is a relative game. One’s status is measured in relation to others in the group, not in relation to some objective metric.

In correctly understanding status, there’s a fine line between the concept of status as an end in itself, and status as a means to the benefits afforded by higher status. If there’s one fundamental complaint I have with Mr. Kurtz’s piece, it’s that he seems to lean too far into the concept of status as an end in itself. Taken to extremes, it’s the idea that status is somehow an arbitrary and external scale, and that if we can just manipulate or recreate that scale to place parenthood at the top, we can solve for higher fertility without changing any physical realities in the real world. I disagree with that concept of status.

If you look at the attributes of higher status, they’re all very much tangible, physical benefits. He lists four; power, resources, health, and reproduction. Power gives a person the ability to bend the behavior of others to their own tangible benefit. Access to resources is a direct physical benefit to a person’s survival and wellbeing. Health is also a direct physical benefit. And access to reproduction, while closely tied to emotional well-being, is also a distinctly physical benefit and one we’re hard-wired to respond to, given that the alternative is the end of that bloodline.

Along with that, there’s also the complex overlap between achievements that increase status and benefits conferred by higher status. If someone acquires a lot of wealth, that’s going to increase their relative status. But access to wealth-increasing opportunity is also a benefit of higher status. Similarly, acquiring a desirable mate definitely increases a person’s status. But achieving higher status by acquiring wealth also opens up the opportunity to attract a more desirable mate. All of these things are very closely entwined, and in my opinion, are the reason why status is such an existential concern. As Mr. Kurtz points out, a person can experience severe distress from loss of status, even if their own situation seems to be unchanged and they only lost status because others advanced faster. That makes sense when you consider that a relative loss of status still makes it more difficult to access the resources needed to maintain one’s status moving forward. So even if one’s absolute condition hasn’t changed, the fear that lower status could be the beginning of an irreversible downward spiral is very real.

With that in mind, I’m going to look at status in the Amish culture as closely tied to physical reality, and not only as a mental scoreboard to be manipulated at will.

In part 1, I mentioned status here.

When it comes to status, the benefits are just as clear. Amish life revolves around family, and nothing is higher status than a thriving family of your own.

That’s the bird’s-eye view of family and status in the Amish culture. But it’s not enough to stop there and say “we just need to create a status hierarchy that places motherhood at the top like the Amish have” and leave it at that. The important part is why the Amish status hierarchy, and the mainstream status hierarchy globally until 200 years ago, placed parenthood so high up the scale.

I don’t believe that hierarchies, including the status hierarchy, develop in a random way. I think they are, at least originally, rooted in physical realities. In other words, the status hierarchy elevates certain things because those things are useful markers of value to the group. Wealth is high-status because it implies competence and ability, which is a valuable asset to the group. Without competent people working hard and being productive, the group will be impoverished. Similarly, parenthood is high-status because reproduction is an existential concern for the group. Without it, the group goes extinct.

These status markers are enforced by the feedback loop of physical reality. If a group attempts to function with wealth way down at the bottom of their status hierarchy, the group will be poor and unsuccessful and will be dominated by a group with a functional status hierarchy. If a group attempts to function with parenthood way down at the bottom of their status hierarchy, as the mainstream culture is currently doing, they’ll go extinct and be replaced by the Amish. Hyperbolic, maybe, but I’m trying to illustrate the point. There may be a lag in the feedback loop, but reality is inevitable.

What keeps status hierarchies largely functional is that desirable behaviors tend to cluster. Incentive structures align to keep it that way. Working hard results in higher income, which increases status. Higher status and more disposable income are powerful motivators.

Beyond that, functional societies are incentivized to “help” the feedback loops of reality with social institutions. Honesty is important in maintaining a functional, productive high-trust society. So we put thieves in prison rather than letting them use their stolen wealth to increase their status, turning our society into South Africa and destroying our wealth to the point that we become globally non-competitive. These social institutions serve a very important purpose, but they begin to break down when the lag between cause and effect becomes too big for the average person to understand. At that point, they lose their public support and can no longer function, and shorter-term incentive structures “reset” the status hierarchy. Then we end up with things like a status hierarchy that no longer penalizes divorce, even though the long-term effects are devastating, because the average person can’t see past their own short-term incentives.

So let’s look at the Amish status hierarchy around family and children. Why is a large family still high-status in that culture?

One could first look at the effects of peer pressure and social conditioning. Most Amish children grow up in large families, surrounded by peers in equally large families. As they mature, they see their peers get married at a young age, and have children at a young age. Doing otherwise means swimming against the current, not fitting in with the group. And fitting in with the group is itself a kind of status marker.

While that’s certainly a powerful incentive, it doesn’t explain the difference between the Amish and broader culture. After all, that was everyone’s experience a few centuries ago at most. If inertia were enough to keep the Amish at a 6 TFR, why would everyone else fall below 2 over the same period? So while the lack of exposure to large families is a commonly invoked reason for falling birthrates, it doesn’t explain how we got here to begin with.

Mr. Kurtz has this to say about the changes brought about by the Enlightenment.

Thus the Enlightenment initially opened up new status opportunities for men (success) whilst undermining those that supported women (virtue). We all have a psychological need for status, and so it was only a matter of time before women demanded access to and participation within success games (education, commerce, politics, even sport). Unfortunately, accruing status through success games is time intensive, and unlike virtue games, trades off directly with fertility.

Over time, this set of status mechanics spread, intensified, and deepened, particularly during the process of urbanization during the Industrial Revolution. Ultimately this culminates in today, when the standard introductory question has become ‘What do you do?’. This is because the most effective way to gauge the status of one’s interlocutor is to understand their level of success within our meritocracy. Unfortunately, ‘I’m a mother’ is not a good answer to this question, because this conveys little status within a success framework, which is usually the operative one. Women are, understandably, hesitant to be continuously humiliated in this way, and will make whatever tradeoffs are necessary to ensure they have a better answer.

I think he’s onto something here. The Enlightenment did bring significant changes, and I want to zero in on the effects of the Industrial Revolution specifically. Prior to the Industrial Revolution, the family typically functioned as the primary economic unit. Wage labor was less common, and subsistence farming was widespread. In that system, every member of the family, and often the extended rather than the nuclear family, worked together to support the family unit. While there were gender roles, the husband and father’s work in the fields was less distinct from the wife and mother’s work in the home. Both often worked in directly complementary roles, for example the wife and daughters milking the cows while the father and sons fed, watered and cared for the animals. The “paid work” was just as often selling butter churned by the wife as selling grain the husband raised and harvested. There was not a distinct breadwinner versus homemaker role, all work was directly and clearly in support of the family as a whole. In that scenario, the question “what do you do?” would have been silly, and “I’m a mother” wouldn’t be fundamentally different than the husband’s answer of “I’m a farmer.” Status from an economic perspective would be clearly understood as a cooperative achievement. And since children were part of the economic unit, a large family had a very quick and direct economic feedback loop to higher status.

With the Industrial Revolution and the rise of wage labor, the primary economic unit became the individual rather than the family. Along with that came the invention of household appliances that drastically reduced the burden of domestic labor. Suddenly the financial status of the household was entirely dependent on the breadwinner. There’s no fundamental reason that should lower the status of the homemaking wife. As Mr. Kurtz pointed out, before the Enlightenment, a woman’s status was modified substantially by her husband’s status. And I would argue that’s still that case at the extremes. I doubt the wives of wealthy entrepreneurs and sports stars get asked “what do you do?” very often in their social circles. But what did happen is that the reduced burden of domestic labor gave women the potential to contribute to the family outside the homemaking role, and they began to demand more freedom and opportunity to do so. As they shifted more into that financial status hierarchy, it created a direct status tradeoff between career and children. Like Mr. Kurtz pointed out, “women demanded access to and participation within success games (education, commerce, politics, even sport)”.

The Amish managed to maintain the traditional status hierarchy by saying “no” to that demand. Amish women do not have independent access to education, commerce, politics, or sport. They don’t have the option of pursuing those status markers within the Amish culture.

As you can imagine, I don’t believe this approach will be implemented on a wider scale. I don’t see it happening across liberal democracies, since the bridge of universal suffrage has already been crossed.

The Amish maintain their social structure through their insular lifestyle and their severe ostracization of those who choose to leave. It’s a significant tradeoff to young people, so much so that most choose their family and community over the opportunities of the broader culture. The evidence shows that, given the opportunity with no significant tradeoff, most young women choose education and career over marriage and children.

Here’s the thing about this post-Enlightenment status hierarchy; it’s societal suicide. That much is obvious. So given that status hierarchies exist to serve group interests, this one is obviously terminally defective. So how did that happen? In my opinion, the underlying problem is that the lag time between anti-social behavior and its consequences has been inflated by the Industrial Revolution to the point that the social institutions meant to punish anti-social behavior have collapsed, and the short-term incentive structures now point away from parenthood.

The Amish have escaped that effect by creating a “moat” around their social group. Within that group, they artificially exclude certain things that aid and encourage anti-social behavior, and artificially enforce certain feedback loops that have become disconnected as a result of the Industrial Revolution.

I’ll give some examples.

One of the primary feedback loops for high fertility is that if you don’t have children, you have no one to care for you when you’re old and unable to work. In the bad old days of subsistence farming, there was no such thing as “saving for retirement”. Every year was a struggle for survival, and there were no functional financial instruments available to save and invest for decades in the future. The Industrial Revolution changed all that, and most importantly led to the creation of pensions and public welfare systems. Now anyone without children to care for them could be cared for in old age by one of these financial schemes. Did that fundamentally solve a problem? No, not at all. Look at the bankrupt state of global public pension schemes today, and the imminent collapse they face as the result of (checks notes)… too few young workers to support each retiree. Turns out, society actually does need everyone to have enough children to support them in old age. The Industrial Revolution just broke the direct feedback loop, so everyone doesn’t get to see the poor souls without children begging on the street or sent to the poorhouse in their old age, and can therefore conclude that not having children is a purely personal choice and won’t have any effect on their lifestyle at age 80. The Amish took a different approach. They are exempt from Social Security. They don’t pay into it, and they aren’t eligible to collect it. They can see from a young age that children care for and support their elderly parents. They know that if they don’t have children and grandchildren, their elderly years will be much more difficult and depressing. They don’t get fed any dishonest media narratives portraying some rosy alternative reality. The historical status hierarchy rewarding large families remains intact.

As another example, casual sex historically resulted in unplanned pregnancies, and without good employment opportunities or public welfare schemes, single mothers faced an extremely difficult life. With the invention of reliable contraceptives, legal abortion, good employment opportunities, court-mandated child support, and public welfare, casual sex no longer carries catastrophic consequences for women. Over the longer term, it leads to drastically reduced marriage rates, lower fertility rates, higher rates of single motherhood, dysfunctional children, and eventually societal collapse. The Amish fight this trend in various ways. First, the lack of employment opportunities for women means that they’re fundamentally dependent on family and community for support. And violating community expectations by engaging in sex outside of marriage puts that support in jeopardy. That’s a strong deterrent. The absence of sex education makes it much less likely that young people will feel comfortable engaging in casual sex without risking pregnancy, and much more likely that they’ll abstain altogether, given the significant social consequences. All on top of the religious teaching against it, which in my opinion is just additional icing on the cake. None of that does anything to diminish the human sex drive. So particularly for young men, that incentive structure makes early marriage a lot more appealing than it might otherwise be. Once again, the historical status hierarchy remains intact.

Another example would be lifestyle based. Although the Amish are no longer primarily subsistence farmers, they reject many of the modern conveniences that eliminated the labor involved in housework. Their insistence on distinctive clothing means the women still spend significant time sewing for the family. And all that clothing must be washed with much more primitive equipment than we’re accustomed to. Cooking is also more labor intensive, and eating out, ordering takeout, or buying prepared food are much less accepted. No microwave to heat up a TV dinner, or even last night’s leftovers. Gardening and preserving food is strongly encouraged. No vacuum cleaners for cleaning. Mowing the lawn might require a hand-pushed mechanical reel mower, not a ride-on garden tractor. The lack of cars makes staying home and caring for the household much less optional, for both men and women. And the large potential income disparity between men and women makes all men potentially attractive mates to all women. That eliminates the hypergamous trap we have now where the average man isn’t sufficiently high-status to attract the average woman, which leaves both groups single and frustrated while the majority of women chase an increasingly small group of men with the financial resources to actually improve their lifestyle. All those restrictions for the Amish make life much more comfortable as a team effort, for both men and women. Trying to do it all yourself would hardly be feasible. The alternative is to stay living at home with your parents, hardly a rewarding or high-status lifestyle in any cultural setting. In this case, the Amish have chosen to artificially restrict their access to the physical benefits of the Industrial Revolution. This is less about status, and more about creating conditions that make marriage a direct lifestyle benefit. Once again, it’s questionable whether all these modern technologies and conveniences can survive in an environment of collapsing global population. So the approach the Amish are taking may just be an artificial short-circuit of a feedback loop that will send us all back to the Dark Ages anyway. Regardless, they’ve managed to maintain the historical attractiveness of marriage, in this case by removing access to modern conveniences that allow us to effectively outsource labor in a way that makes the single lifestyle attractive. The attractive single lifestyle is largely historically unprecedented, and a direct result of the Industrial Revolution.

Many of the lifestyle choices of the Amish culture are less about direct effects, and more about maintaining the “moat” that keeps their culture somewhat isolated from the broader society. This makes a lot of sense when you understand that status is “the perceived standing of the individual within the group.” If you want to create your own status hierarchy, you have to create your own coherent group. The Amish severely restrict their exposure to the media and culture of the broader society. That’s a very effective way to maintain a coherent group. Amish young girls don’t feel the same pressure to pursue higher education and career over marriage and motherhood, because they don’t see a billion media references praising career and denigrating motherhood before they’re 18. And they don’t see a million “boss babes” on social media, TV, and Netflix shows flaunting the single lifestyle and bashing the patriarchy in heels. Instead, they see and hear their mothers, grandmothers, and aunts joyfully caring for and loving their large families, praised and supported by their devoted, hardworking husbands. The evidence shows that a free market in media doesn’t result in glowing depictions of parenthood that lead young people to reject career opportunities and pursue marriage instead. You can ask yourself why that might be, but that’s what history shows.

Across thousands of distinct cultural groups around the world, only a handful have rejected the dominant post-Enlightenment status hierarchy in favor of large families and traditional values. I’m not aware of any that managed it without significant insulation from the dominant culture. That tells me that the short-term incentive structure of modern society is more powerful than any historical cultural norms, and there is no passive solution that doesn’t involve collapse of that incentive structure and the civilization it rests on.

I could go into more detail on specifics of Amish culture and how they play into their status hierarchy. But you can read part 1 of the article and draw your own conclusions. I’m going to end with what’s sure to be a highly provocative list of requirements that would be necessary for the Amish status hierarchy to function across broader society. I don’t personally believe there’s any possibility of anything similar being widely adopted. And frankly, I don’t think it’s possible outside of a religious context, without the collapse of modern civilization as we know it. The collapse of modern civilization is the outcome I expect, although I’m happy to be proven wrong. So this is a philosophical exercise, not a policy prescription.

• End social acceptance of casual sex. Implement sever consequences for premarital sex or marital infidelity.

• End all forms of government financial support for the elderly. All elderly care is the responsibility of the family, or failing that, the church/community.

• End all government support for single mothers. Again, support for widows and those in other extenuating circumstances is the responsibility of the church/community.

• End all sex education in public schools. Sex education is the responsibility of the parents.

• Ban all forms of contraception, with significant penalties for violation.

• Ban abortion.

• Severely restrict access to higher education for women.

• End female participation in politics, including universal suffrage. One household, one vote. No voting by unmarried people, male or female.

• End the social and legal acceptance of divorce. No divorce permitted for any reason, and legal separation doesn’t allow for remarriage.

• End mandatory public education. Education is the responsibility of the parents.

• Ban negative messaging toward marriage and children in all forms of media.

• Severely restrict or outright eliminate social media platforms.

• Roll back child labor laws significantly.

I could add a few more, but I think that covers the essentials. If that sounds insane and offensive to you, I’m not shocked. This isn’t a policy prescription, and as I said at the beginning of the piece, I don’t necessarily believe that this is even a problem we should attempt to “fix”. The reason being, any government with the power to enforce these requirements on the world would be more concerning to me than the prospect of civilizational collapse itself. Civilization has collapsed before, many times throughout history. And we’ve always bounced back eventually. A global power of this magnitude might not be reversible.

But you should at least temper your shock and outrage with the realization that every item on that list was the accepted reality for most of human history, all the way up until the past few anomalous centuries.

My personal opinion is that too much obsession with this issue is probably a waste of time. Again, I don’t think any “solution” we come up with is likely to be less dangerous than the problem itself. I expect things to play out over a long period of time, and for the population decline to eventually degrade our interconnected, high-tech global civilization. Once many of the advances of the Industrial Revolution become widely unavailable, the natural incentive structures and status hierarchies will reemerge. And those incentive structures demand that men and women are natural allies, not enemies. We need each other, and the families we create together, to be a healthy, happy, flourishing, and productive society over the long term. If the prospect of losing our modern conveniences and going back to that world terrifies you, go befriend an Amish parent or grandparent. You’ll soon realize that they’re as happy and fulfilled in life as anyone you’ll ever meet. Life is a matter of perspective, not products. And my point in exploring this topic isn’t to spread doom, but to point out that we can make our own decisions and surround ourselves with like-minded people, and in doing so find peace and fulfillment in relationships and community instead of constantly chasing a dysfunctional, suicidal status hierarchy.

In conclusion, while writing this article, a stanza from Rudyard Kipling’s poem “The Gods of the Copybook Headings” kept coming to mind. It’s been over a hundred years since he penned these words, and the whole poem displays a prescience that’s positively uncanny. The seeds of the current issue were sown a long time ago, but there were people like him who saw the poisonous fruit coming even as the little plants were just emerging from the soil.

``` As I pass through my incarnations in every age and race, I make my proper prostrations to the Gods of the Market Place. Peering through reverent fingers I watch them flourish and fall, And the Gods of the Copybook Headings, I notice, outlast them all.

We were living in trees when they met us. They showed us each in turn That Water would certainly wet us, as Fire would certainly burn: But we found them lacking in Uplift, Vision and Breadth of Mind, So we left them to teach the Gorillas while we followed the March of Mankind.

We moved as the Spirit listed. They never altered their pace, Being neither cloud nor wind-borne like the Gods of the Market Place, But they always caught up with our progress, and presently word would come That a tribe had been wiped off its icefield, or the lights had gone out in Rome.

With the Hopes that our World is built on they were utterly out of touch, They denied that the Moon was Stilton; they denied she was even Dutch; They denied that Wishes were Horses; they denied that a Pig had Wings; So we worshipped the Gods of the Market Who promised these beautiful things.

When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace. They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease. But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe, And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."

On the first Feminian Sandstones we were promised the Fuller Life (Which started by loving our neighbour and ended by loving his wife) Till our women had no more children and the men lost reason and faith, And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "The Wages of Sin is Death."

In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all, By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul; But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy, And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "If you don't work you die."

Then the Gods of the Market tumbled, and their smooth-tongued wizards withdrew, And the hearts of the meanest were humbled and began to believe it was true That All is not Gold that Glitters, and Two and Two make Four– And the Gods of the Copybook Headings limped up to explain it once more.

As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man There are only four things certain since Social Progress began. That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire, And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;

And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins, As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn, The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return! ```

Trabalhar 40 anos e aposentar?

Quando comecei minha jornada, pensei que trabalhar em emprego que detesto e receber pouco não era o suficiente. Na época eu lia nos consultórios de dentistas as revistas veja e exame.

Ficava elucidando: -Como pode uma empresa pagar carro, telefone, viagem e um belo salário para esses caras? Será que eu teria chance algum dia?

Mas, quando seu primeiro emprego é o Bobs. Você é negro e vem de um um lugar aonde o seu nome e seu tempo de carteira são sinônimos de orgulho.

Eu sabia que seria difícil. Principalmente, porque além de ter que melhorar quem eu era. Eu teria, que enfrentar pré conceitos e críticas da família junto. Enfim, mãos a obra.

É só investir que fico rico!

Foi então que pensei se teria alguma forma de não ter que trabalhar por 40 anos e depender do governo no fim da minha vida. Daí, eu estudei e encontrei algumas pessoas que me mostraram uma opção. Investimentos! Caraca, tudo parecia muito legal naquela época.

Era uma sopa de letrinhas acompanhada por um glossário recheado e diferente de tudo que tinha conhecimento. Meu primeiro investimento foram 3 ações da Ambev. Fiquei empolgado demais quando chegou a primeira carta da Bovespa mostrando o meu "rico”patrimônio.

Ademais, eu fui vivendo outras coisas: Crise da época Dilma, crise do Temer com o Joesley, Covid e pós Covid. Fui além, e fiquei alguns anos negociando forex e criptomoedas também. Vivi demais, fiz grana, perdi grana, fiz amizades, perdi amizades e o mais importante que fiquei experiente nesse ramo. Tão experiente que percebi uma coisa…

Opaaa, falta uma peça no quebra cabeça

Os anos passavam e era como uma montanha russa. Tinha anos bons e ruins. Normal, como qualquer outra coisa que aconteça na vida. Mas, cara. Era inegável que eu estava evoluindo. Mas, o ritmo era lento demais. E, pelas minhas contas eu ia chegar lá com uma idade bem avançada. A diferença é que eu teria mais controle sobre meu futuro.

Contudo, no meio da jornada comecei a perceber que toda vez que eu pegava meu dinheiro e entregava para o mercado financeiro. Eu mandava uma mensagem para meu subconsciente: Você não é capaz de multiplicar seu dinheiro! E, isso é muito louco.

Porque eu multiplicava. Mas, tinha que me contentar com 10-12% a.a em anos normais, -6% a.a em anos ruins e anos bons era algo como 20%.

Portanto, isso tudo me deixava maluco. Porque? Eu tinha amigos empreendendo e ganhando 20% de lucro líquido ao mês. E, porque eu deveria me contentar com módicos 12% a.a? Esse raciocínio alugou um triplex na minha cabeça.

Durante minha jornada, eu tentei vários empreendimentos: Festas, venda de camisetas, venda de acessórios de telefone, confeitaria online e mais alguns que não lembro. Foram excelentes negócios para aprender. Mas, eu queria meu próprio negócio. Mas, não mais um negócio. Um negócio online, escalável e multilíngue. Fui estudar Desenvolvimento de sistemas, marketing digital e varri a internet atrás de informações.

O que você pode fazer

E, aqui estamos. A ideia de construir isso que você está usufruindo hoje nasceu 2 anos atrás. Eu levei 6 meses para lapidar e mais 6 meses criando conteúdo na unha. Literalmente, sentando a bunda na cadeira e escrevendo do zero cada texto.

Eu sei que alguns não ficaram bons como queria. Mas, o processo é esse. Você vai melhorando a medida que avança. Não dá para ficar vendo tutoriais no youtube, gurus de internet e ler milhares de livros. Tu tem que pegar e começar a fazer algo. Hoje, agora!

A vantagem da internet é que você não precisa de permissão para começar nada. Abre o Word, Docs, Canva, Capcut, Câmera do seu celular e cria. A resposta para todos os seus problemas está em: CRIAR!

Eu criei esse site, complementando: Meu site, meu Medium, meu Reddit e meu Nostr. Eu crio coisas novas todas as semanas e distribuo.

Minha empresa só tem eu de funcionário(por enquanto). Mas, já desenhei quais os próximos passos. Pode ser que eu nem use os próximos passos porque tudo muda toda hora.

Mas, vale a pena tentar! Se você puder acabar esse texto com uma só lição, eu diria:

Acredite mais em você e menos nos outros. Pare de pegar seu combustível (dinheiro) e entregar nas mãos de pessoas que em muitos casos. São menos preparadas que você.

Muito obrigado pelo seu tempo e até o próximo.

George Town, Grand Cayman — Ledn, one of the longest-standing digital asset lenders, today announced a sweeping update to its platform to discontinue any lending of client assets to generate interest, meaning that client assets will never be exposed to third party lending credit risk.

Going forward, Ledn will only offer its Custodied Bitcoin loan structure, under which client bitcoin collateral will remain fully in custody either with Ledn or its trusted funding partners.

As part of this strategic shift, Ledn will also remove support for ETH, doubling down on Bitcoin as its sole digital asset focus. These changes were unveiled by the company at Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas.

“With our new hyper-focus on Bitcoin-only lending, we’re going back to our roots and principles that inspired Bitcoin to begin with,” said Adam Reeds, Co-Founder and CEO of Ledn.

“Bitcoin was created as a direct response to the risks of fractional reserve banking and unchecked use of client assets to generate interest. Traditional finance relies on constantly reusing client assets to create leverage and, ultimately, inflation.

“Bitcoiners instinctively reject that model. That’s why we’ve moved away from this approach entirely. With our Custodied loan structure, client assets stay where they belong and are held in a transparent manner.”

While Ledn is taking these steps to further de-risk its product and further enhance client security, many of the new lending products in the market are exposing consumers to risky and opaque structures once again.

“These are the exact dynamics that led to the meltdown of the lending sector in 2022,” Reeds added.

“As more new entrants push half-baked lending models back into the market, we’re choosing the opposite path— Eliminating lending risk entirely for our users and making it 100% clear how their assets are dealt with.

“That clarity is what has helped us originate over $9.5 billion in loans and become the #1 retail CeFi lender in the Bitcoin space. We believe this approach should become the new standard for any serious digital asset lender.”    

This shift reinforces Ledn’s broader strategy:  Going all in on Bitcoin, simplifying its product stack, and sharpening its focus around the most secure and proven digital asset.

Ledn was the first crypto lender to introduce proof-of-reserves attestations in 2020, offering clients third-party verification that assets were fully accounted for down to the satoshi.

That transparency-first approach allowed the company to navigate market volatility as peers collapsed under opaque and hidden risks.

Now, as global regulators begin signaling openness to supervised participation rather than blanket restrictions, the opportunity — and the responsibility — for digital asset platforms is clear: Build resilient systems and proactively mitigate risk.

Ledn will exclusively offer custodied bitcoin-backed loans as of July 1, 2025. Support for ETH will be retired in the same release, reflecting Ledn’s strategic shift to a Bitcoin-only platform.

Ledn offers growth accounts and loans to clients in over 120 countries, with an expanding range of services and supported regions. The company is dedicated to building world-class financial services, with a focus on helping people build long-term wealth through digital asset-based products.

While Asia silently steals the crypto spotlight, America's grip on digital assets is slipping through its fingers.

The U.S. share of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana trading has dropped below 45% as Asian markets surge to capture nearly a third of global crypto activity. This power shift comes despite Bitcoin's remarkable resilience, hovering above $105,000 after weathering a $1 billion liquidation storm.

What's driving this global rebalancing? Institutional players are flooding in – Strategy purchased $2.7 billion in Bitcoin while ETFs absorbed $5.2 billion in May alone. Meanwhile, Ethereum leads the recovery charge with a 4.5% gain as its Foundation restructures to sharpen its competitive edge.

The most fascinating development? Bitcoin's rally is happening on surprisingly low volume. ETFs now represent 45% of global spot BTC market volume, suggesting this isn't retail FOMO but calculated institutional positioning.

Is this the beginning of a new global crypto order? As trade tensions simmer between the U.S. and China, will Asia's growing influence reshape the future of digital assets?

Je suis en train de construire un outil de référencement collectif de marques et fabricants proposant des produits 100 % en matière naturelle (ce qui veut essentiellement dire "sans plastique").

Voici les étapes de ma progression ces dernières semaines en tant que non développeur pour créer cela tout en privilégiant des outils open source.

Etape 1 : faisons simple, du texte organisé

J'ai commencé par réunir mes idées dans Anytype. Leur approche "tout est un objet" laisse une flexibilité incroyable pour organiser ses données. On peut s'en servir comme simple outil de prise de note ou comme outil de gestion de projet. Le fonctionnement "local first" de l'application me donne la main sur mes données : elles sont stockées en local sur mon ordinateur et mon téléphone, qui se synchronisent entre eux.

Anytype permet depuis peu de publier sur Internet les "objets" de son choix (pages, notes, albums…) mais cela reste limité pour proposer à des visiteur une navigation fluide entre des objets liés (dans mon cas des marques et des matières par exemple). De plus, il n'est pas encore possible d'y automatiser la mise en forme de contenus à partir de données.

Ainsi, après avoir réuni les informations et préparé les contenus "à la main" pour trois marques seulement dans Anytype, j'ai eu besoin d'automatisation, et donc d'une vraie base de données. Je conserve quand même Anytype pour organiser mes idées et la suite du projet. Je l'utilise aussi pour la vie quotidienne (liste de course partagée, journal…).

Etape 2 : structurons une base de données

Baserow est une alternative à Airtable qui permet de gérer une base de données comme un tableur. Les formules utilisables dans les tableaux m'ont aidé à générer automatiquement les contenus de marque à partir des données que je réunissais. J'ai obtenu des données bien ordonnés dans de beaux tableaux sans avoir plus besoin de réécrire tout le contenu pour chaque marque.

J'ai passé un peu de temps à apprendre la syntaxe des formules de Baserow, j'ai mis à jour le contenu des trois premières marques, généré automatiquement celui d'une quatrième et… je me suis rendu compte que ça n'allait pas le faire.

Un point crucial de mon projet est la gestion et l'affichage des catégories de produits proposés par chaque marque, histoire que cela soit pratique de trouver les alternatives naturelles pour ce que l'on cherche sur le site. Or, dans Baserow il n'y avait pas moyen de générer mes contenus catégorisés de manière dynamique. J'étais contraint de modifier sans cesse des formules de plus en plus complexes, et donc avec un risque d'erreur de plus en plus grand. Cela reste un tableur, plus net pour gérer des données, mais moins fourni en termes de formules.

Avec une seule marque traitée en plus, mon "backend" v2 n'aura pas duré longtemps !

Etape 3 : courage, passons aux choses sérieuses

A ce moment là, j'ai sérieusement douté de ma capacité a créer ce site avec des outils open source et j'ai été tenté de retourner vers Bubble. À mon avis, Bubble est l'outil "no code" (ou de "programmation visuelle") le plus abouti. Je l'avais déjà utilisé efficacement avec We Do Good pour réaliser des prototypes de fonctionnalités, même utilisés provisoirement en production.

C'est génial, avec Bubble, des semaines de travail classique entre développeurs et designers pour arriver à une version utilisable se transforment en heures, voire en jours pour tester et valider des prototypes.

Mais… avec Bubble on n'a pas accès à ce qui se passe derrière l'interface de programmation. On devient en fait prisonnier de leur langage de programmation propriétaire. Si on a besoin de faire différemment, s'ils augmentent leurs prix de manière inadaptée, ou si un blocage se présente pour une autre raison, il faut tout refaire à zéro ou faire développer des nouvelles fonctionnalités (plugins) qui enrichissent Bubble.

J'ai alors décidé de passé au niveau supérieur en terme de technicité, avec des outils tout de même accessible aux non initiés motivés : une base de données dans Supabase connectée à une interface créée avec Plasmic. Avec Supabase j'ai accès aux paramétrages les plus fins sur les données et avec Plamic je construis visuellement ce dont j'ai besoin, comme avec Bubble.

Malgré l'interface visuelle très complètes de Plasmic, certaines fonctions dont j'ai besoin demandent des formules personnalisées utilisant un peu de code. L'avantage, c'est que là ou j'avais appris le language Bubble utilisable seulement avec Bubble, j'apprends maintenant les languages ouverts et universels du web sql et javascript, avec un peu d'aide de l'"IA" pour comprendre les fonctions et erreurs de syntaxe.

J'apprendre en faisant directement ce que j'ai envie, et c'est beaucoup plus efficace et motivant !

Plasmic me laisse aussi récupérer et réutiliser l'ensemble du code source ailleurs si j'en ai besoin un jour.

Je devais en passer par là

Chaque version de mon "backend" a été utile et même nécessaire à la suivante.

Avec mon expérience d'entrepreneur du web, je sentais depuis le départ que j'aurais besoin d'une solution robuste de base de données ainsi que de pouvoir intervenir sur le code facilement. Cependant, au démarrage, je n'avais pas envie de me plonger là-dedans. Finalement, bien m'en a pris ! La structuration de données que j'avais initialement imaginée est très différente de celle à laquelle j'arrive maintenant.

Je n'aurais pas eu une base de données claire et bien organisée dans Supabase si je n'avais pas fait précédemment une itération dans Baserow. Je n'aurais pas créé les tables et liaisons utiles dans Baserow si je n'avais pas créé les premiers contenus sous forme de texte avec liaisons dans Anytype.

De plus, je n'aurais pas trouvé l'énergie de me lancer sur ce nouveau projet si je n'avais pas commencé par une version très simple et non "scalable". C'est un vrai progrès personnel : j'ai toujours travaillé en essayant de concevoir le maximum de choses d'avances, pour me rassurer et limiter les risques, et parce que c'est ce qu'on apprend à l'école. Les problèmes, c'est que je dépensais pour cela une énergie folle et que bien sûr, la réalité ne correspond jamais vraiment aux prévisions.

En me lançant avec une première version pas du tout aboutie mais fonctionnelle, je me suis autorisé à faire plus d'erreur, à m'exposer et à me concentrer sur du concret.

Références

Pour moi, favoriser l'open source est essentiel car cela fait partie des outils fondamentaux pour défendre ma liberté et celle des autres.

Tous les outils que j'utilise ou ai utilisé pour ce projet sont open source, sauf Anytype qui est juste "open core" (c'est à dire qu'ils publient leur code mais n'autorisent pas tous les usages avec). Ils présentent aussi tous des plans gratuits bien pratiques pour se lancer sans contrainte financière.

• Anytype : https://anytype.io/
• Baserow : https://baserow.io/
• Supabase : https://supabase.com/
• Plasmic : https://www.plasmic.app/

J'ai aussi testé ou envisagé sans les retenir quelques autres solutions comme WordPress ou Silex. Provisoirement, en attendant d'avoir créé toutes les interfaces dont j'ai besoin avec Plasmic, j'utilise NocoDB, connecté à Supabase, pour disposer d'une interface visuelle équivalente à Baserow (avec des formules moins avancées mais la possibilité de me connecter plusieurs bases de données si besoin).

J'utilise beaucoup Alternative.to pour trouver les outils dont j'ai besoin, on y peut filtrer les applications selon de nombreux critère, je le recommande.

Ensuite, il faut tester et se lancer, voire tester en se lançant !

Release time!

We are thrilled to announce the release of the new version of DVMCP, packed with a host of new features and enhancements. The standout improvement is the support for the new specification, which brings loads of new possibilities and a future-proof design to accommodate MCP protocol as it evolves.

Currently, DVMCP supports all major MCP capabilities, tools, resources, resource templates, and prompts, along with features like autocompletion. While there are still a few minor MCP features that are not yet supported, the new specification will allows us to introduce new features and capabilities progressively.

A significant amount of work has gone into this update, from designing and drafting the new DVMCP specification, ensuring it aligns with the latest MCP standards. We have also refactored the bridge, discovery, and commons package, adapted the DVMCP.fun website (currently at next.dvmcp.fun), and even created a new storage type for relays to handle ephemeral events more robustly and efficiently. This new storage solution is already powering the DVMCP relay.

These enhancements represent a significant expansion of the possibilities available to DVMCP users. By combining MCP with Nostr, DVMCP offers rock-solid authentication and seamless payments using Lightning. We have many exciting ideas for utilizing these new capabilities in innovative ways, such as monetizing resources for creators, creating collections of prompts, developing agentic capabilities, and much more. Rest assured, we will be rolling out more on this gradually.

Additionally, DVMCP is already providing some servers that you can use for free. These can be discovered using the discovery package with any MCP client or by trying them out on the website.

Rollout Plan

As this update introduces breaking changes, including different event types for various DVMCP-related events, we are hosting the new version of the website at next.dvmcp.fun, with packages starting from version 0.2.x. We will be testing this version and welcome feedback from users over the next 10 days. After this period, we will deploy the 'next' version of the website to the main domain.

Updates on Ecosystem Components

• DVMCP Packages: Starting from version 0.2.x, all packages include breaking changes. If you are already using DVMCP, please adapt to the new kinds and events. You can refer to the @dvmcp-commons package for all the new kinds and tags.

• DVMCP.fun: The website has been entirely refactored to support the new specification and now utilizes idiomatic Svelte 5 across the application. Currently the new version is living at next.dvmcp.fun

• DVMCP Relay: The relay is now powered by the 'rely' framework and employs our atomic circular buffer implementation to handle ephemeral events more robustly and efficiently. It also uses LMDB as persistent storage for announcements and capability events.

Looking ahead, we plan to launch more servers offering various services, develop agentic DVMCPs, create additional guides and tutorials, integrate DVMCP into LLM web interfaces, provide statistics for the DVMCP relay, explore novel concepts in MCP + Nostr integration, and continuously improve the code to make it more accessible to developers as libraries.

Thank you for joining us on this journey! We are incredibly excited about the possibilities that lie ahead and what’s coming next. Stay tuned!

Heute ist Karfreitag 2025, und ich beginne diese Zeilen um kurz nach 15 Uhr zu schreiben. Seit ich von der Friedenstaube gehört hatte, bastelte ich innerlich immer wieder an dem Text, der Ihnen heute vorliegt. Ich bin kein beruflicher Autor, aber ich möchte meinem Impuls folgen, meine Lebenserfahrungen zu teilen. In der Absicht, dass dieser Inhalt hilfreich in diesen schwierigen Zeiten wirkt.

Ich wurde recht katholisch erzogen in einem (Deutschen) Familiensystem, das von den Wirkungen des Zweiten Weltkrieges – gelinde gesagt – stark geprägt wurde. Was ich als Kind in den 70er Jahren nur über das Spüren wahrgenommen hatte, erklärte sich mir im Laufe meines Erwachsen-Werdens, vor allem über die Erzählungen meines Vaters. Heute bin ich Buddhist, und neben dem Verstehen empfinde ich immer größer werdendes Mitgefühl für meine Großeltern und deren Kinder, die mich auf die Welt gebracht haben.

Während des Krieges ging es in diesen beiden Familien vorrangig um Überleben, wie in vielen anderen Familien auch. Die Männer in Ihrer „Funktion“ an der Front – später dann physisch und psychisch schwer verletzt. Die Frauen auf sich gestellt mit Kindern, Armut, Hoffnungslosigkeit und existentiellen Ängsten ausgesetzt.

Diese Erlebnisse über Jahre hinweg und die daraus resultierenden inneren Zustände oder Gefühle meiner Ahnen sind in einer gewissen Art und Weise über mehrere Generationen hinweg bis in mein eigenes Körper-Geist-System weitergegeben worden. Was manche als kollektiv-psychologisches Phänomen mit dem Namen „German Angst“ beschreiben, möchte ich in den folgenden Zeilen unter dem Kontext einer fernöstlichen Sichtweise betrachten. Das scheint möglicherweise etwas ungewöhnlich, aber lassen Sie sich in der kommenden Lesezeit auf ein Denk-Experiment ein, das sich lohnen wird.

Ich spreche über das Prinzip des NICHT-TUNS, in der daoistischen Philosophie WU WEI genannt.

Betrachtet man das Phänomen der „German Angst“ unter Zuhilfenahme des Prinzips des Nicht-Tuns, kann man ein inhärentes Möglichkeitspotential darin entdecken. Das heißt, wir betrachten ein bekanntes Phänomen aus einer vollständig anderen Perspektive, und durch den etwas anderen Blick wird etwas sichtbar, was vorher schon da war, aber noch im Verborgenen.

Dieses in uns liegende Möglichkeitspotential kann uns in den kommenden Monaten hilfreich sein, um dem zu begegnen, was gerade in Deutschland und Europa stattfindet. Manche bezeichnen den aktuellen Prozess als Optimierung der Verteidigungsfähigkeiten, andere betrachten ihn als Kriegsvorbereitung, wobei die offenliegende, primäre Auswirkung der „German Angst“ als Durchsetzungswerkzeug nutzbar gemacht wird.

Aber erst einmal zurück zu Karfreitag vor über zweitausend Jahren: An jenem Nachmittag hing Christus am Kreuz angenagelt und absichtlich schwer verletzt (für Viele, damals wie heute, DER SOHN GOTTES und Ausdruck bedingungsloser Liebe). Wenn man sich in diese Situation hineinfühlt, wird das Leid schier unerträglich. Und ich bitte den Leser unabhängig von seiner Religion oder inneren Ausrichtung explizit, kurz innezuhalten und sich in diesen sterbenden Menschen hineinzuversetzen.

DAS war das letztendliche Ergebnis von KRIEG. DIE LIEBE wurde an ein Kreuz genagelt, mit einem Speer aufgespießt und dann starb sie – langsam und qualvoll.

Wenn man den Überlieferungen glaubt, waren einige seiner engen Schüler und Vertrauten ganz in der Nähe. Auch deren Gefühlswelt ist vom Leser nach zweitausend Jahren nachfühlbar, auch wenn es  ähnlich schwierig ist.

Manch Historiker argumentiert, dass Jesus/Christus bereits einige Zeit vor diesem Ereignis wusste, welches „Ende“ ihm bestimmt war. So dann auch wohl seine engsten Vertrauten, vielleicht sogar die gesamte Essener-Gemeinschaft, aus der er stammte. Wenn dem so war, ist dieses Wesen in Klarheit und absoluter Hingabe in diesen unglaublich leidvollen Prozess gegangen.

Man kann auch rein gedanklich nachvollziehen, dass alle ihm nahestehenden Menschen schwierige Gefühle wie Verzweiflung, Ohnmacht und Wut in allerhöchster Ausprägung aushalten mussten. Nicht nur an diesem Tag, sondern schon einige Zeit davor und noch lange danach. Diese Menschen waren allerdings von IHM ausgebildet, genauso wie Jesus selbst in hohen Weisheitslehren ausgebildet war.

Das macht hier den Unterschied aus, auf den ich hinweisen möchte.

Die Geschichte lehrt uns, dass er und seine Anhänger besondere Menschen waren. In diesem, für die Menschheit so einschneidenden und bis heute überlieferten Ereignis, war ein wesentlicher Bestandteil von absoluter Wichtigkeit für alle Beteiligten:

Das NICHT-TUN

Und ich bin der Meinung, dass dieses NICHT-TUN in unserer Zeitqualität immer noch ein wesentlicher Schlüssel für die Herausforderungen ist, vor denen wir heute und in nächster Zukunft stehen.

Was ist denn NICHT-TUN und wie unterscheidet es sich vom Nichts-Tun?

NICHT-TUN fängt an mit einer all-umfassenden Wahrnehmung von dem, was ist. OHNE direkte Reaktion.

Das Nichts-Tun hingegen fängt mit einer schnell eingeschränkten Wahrnehmung an – der Einschränkung gehen meist schwierige Gefühle voran, gegen die ein Mensch automatisch Widerstand aufbaut. Oftmals bekommen wir davon auch überhaupt nichts mit und es gibt meistens Trauma in der Vergangenheit als Hintergrund oder Ursache.

Bei gewaltigen Ereignissen mit hohem psycho-energetischem Impact reagieren Lebewesen relativ umgehend entweder mit Totstellen, Flucht oder Kampf. Es sind alles auto-reaktive Muster, die in unserem zentralen Nervensystem einprogrammiert sin, und dementsprechend sind sie schwer zu umgehen. ANGRIFF, DROHENDER TOD und KRIEG sind z.B. solche gewaltigen Ereignisse.

Wie oben beschrieben, wirken VERGANGENE Angriffe oder Kriege in unserem Körper-Geist-System nach, sogar generationenübergreifend (in unserem Denkexperiment die „German Angst“). Dementsprechend greifen die auto-reaktiven Muster auch bereits in einem VOR-KRIEGS-ZUSTAND, ohne dass Menschen das möglicherweise bewusst mitkriegen.

Ich ordne alle diese automatischen Reaktionen hier dem Nichts-Tun zu. Alle haben zwar den Überlebenstrieb gemeinsam und machen für ein Individuum Sinn. Aber in der kollektiven Situation, in der wir uns gerade befinden, sind sie alle kontraproduktiv.

Sich in der aktuellen politischen Situation totzustellen, ist sozusagen ein EXIT des Individuums und es wird nichts, absolut gar nichts zur Verbesserung unser aller Situation beitragen. Die Flucht ist ähnlich zu bewerten – das Individuum rettet sich möglicherweise. Aber es trägt auch nichts zur Heilung oder konstruktiven Verbesserung der (kollektiven) Weltlage bei. Der Kampf, also die sofortige Mobilmachung zur Bekämpfung der widerständigen Gegenkräfte ist zwar eine Form von Tun, aber sie mündet letztendlich im Nichts: Zwei Gegner wollen sich vernichten, bis ein Stärkerer gewinnt – leider ignoriert dieser Automatismus in diesem Momentum, unter welchen Rahmenbedingungen der Gewinner nach dem Überleben weiterleben könnte (oder auch nicht).

Um wieder den Bogen zum Beginn des Christentums und auch zum NICHT-TUN der damaligen Beteiligten zu spannen: Trotz der schwer aushaltbaren Gefühle, hat Christus dieses Schicksal angenommen – ebenso seine Liebsten. Sie nahmen das, was war, in einem ersten Schritt ohne sofortige, automatisierte Reaktion an.

Allerdings waren sie sich allem und vollständig bewusst darüber, was die Situation und das Leben bereitstellte. Die Achtsamkeit nicht nur auf das gelenkt, was gerade schmerzhaft und unaushaltbar war, sondern auf das darüberliegende Größere. Auf die Inhalte, die Christus bzw. die Liebe selbst sie gelehrt hatte:

Sie hielten still. Und sie gingen sehr, sehr bewusst aus dem (inneren und äußeren) Kampf hinaus. Auch wenn sie ihn scheinbar verloren hatten.

Weil genau das der Menschheit gelehrt werden sollte.

Wenn Menschen in vollumfänglicher Wahrnehmung dessen, was ist (und ohne Widerstand dagegen), still sein können, entsteht ein ganz besonderes Momentum. Man bezeichnet das auch als Präsenz. Präsenz kann in Bruchteilen von Sekunden entstehen. Aber man muss es eben auch erlernen.

Wenn die Energie eines Angreifers auf ein solches menschliches Energiefeld trifft, wird Angriffsenergie als erstes SICHTBAR. Bei einigen realisierten (Kampfkunst-) Meistern kann das beobachtet werden. Diese haben es geschafft, Ihren inneren Kampf aufzugeben. Solche Menschen werden faktisch unangreifbar, denn die Energie des Angriffs prallt an deren ausbalancierten Energiefeld ab und wendet sich gegen den Angreifer selbst. Dieser erfährt die Wirkung seiner Handlung dann am eigenen Selbst und stellt in der Regel diesen sinnlosen Akt ein. Solche Menschen haben über den Weg des Nicht-Tuns inneren Frieden kultivieren können, der sich danach auch im Außen manifestiert.

In diesem Zustand findet die Energie sozusagen ohne unseren Willen Ihren klaren und eindeutigen WEG. Im einfachen Fall, beendet es den Kampf, im besten Fall wird die Energie zum Guten umgelenkt und der natürliche Zustand von Frieden entsteht durch die notwendige Bewegung der Energie in die richtige Richtung.

Es ist für uns als Gesellschaft möglich, diese Erkenntnisse in das kollektive Geschehen von KRIEG, KRIEGSVORBEREITUNG und den gerade wirksamen Aspekten der „German Angst“ einwirken zu lassen. 

Hierin liegt eine enorme Transformationskraft. Denn wie in einem individuellen Trauma Lebenskraft unterdrückt und bis zur Heilung/Auflösung nicht verfügbar ist, ist es auch bei unserem kollektiven Trauma. Die Chance dabei: Es sind starke Wirk-Kräfte gebunden, die wir als Gesellschaft für einen positiven Wandel zum Frieden hin freisetzen können. Für diese Freisetzung benötigt es Klarheit, Willen und vor allem Eigenverantwortung eines jeden Einzelnen. 

Wir sollten uns in einem ersten Schritt bewusst werden, was gerade ganz individuell in unserem Inneren stattfindet. Welche Form des Nichts-Tuns herrscht gerade und warum herrscht sie eigentlich über uns? Welche Automatismen/Muster sind gerade aktiv?

Nehmen wir das doch zuallererst in unsere Verantwortung und werden wir still damit.

Ebenso sollten wir uns als Teil des Menschheitskollektives genau dessen bewusst sein, was gerade im Außen geschieht. Schauen wir uns aus unserer kultivierten Stille heraus an, dass sich Kampf bzw. Krieg anbahnt, an manchen Fronten ist er bereits aktiv. Durch die Bewusstwerdung dessen, wird er SICHTBAR, mit allen seinen Mechanismen und seinen Schatten. 

Nehmen wir diese Verantwortung für uns selbst wahr, gibt es dieses besondere Momentum, in dem der Weg der Energie sich wie von selbst verändert. Und das kann man nicht gedanklich vorausplanen. Sie verändert sich aber in dem Sinne, dass alle notwendigen Bewegungen den NATÜRLICHEN ZUSTAND wiederherstellen wollen.

Das würde dann also nicht nur für das wahrnehmende Individuum, sondern für alle Beteiligten erfahrbar werden. Seien es die normale Bürger, repräsentative Regierungsteile oder bereits aktive Kriegsgegner. Es wäre für uns erfahrbar, wie wenn eine unsichtbare Intelligenz oder das Eine, große Ganze zum Wohle bzw. Zusammenfügen von allem gerade Getrennten wirken würde. Die Auswirkung davon würde letztendlich FRIEDEN sein. Und es würde uns vorkommen, wie ein Wunder, auf das wir schon lange warten und an das wir nicht mehr geglaubt hatten.

In dem Momentum der Präsenz im NICHT-TUN entsteht außerordentliche Klarheit und ganz eindeutiges Handeln. Die Wirkung ist immer individuell und kollektiv. 

NICHT-TUN ist Friedensarbeit und beginnt immer bei uns selbst.

In den info-energetischen Mustern in unserem Körper-Geist-System, die das Phänomen „German Angst“ uns beschert hat, sind eben auch Lösungsmöglichkeiten enthalten, die die kriegsgeschundenen Generationen vor uns in der Reflektion nach den Ereignissen des zweiten Weltkrieges sozusagen erarbeitet haben. Und die Klarheit darüber, was diese Generationen vor uns hätten besser machen können, ist ebenso wie die angstgetriebenen Verhaltensautomatismen kollektiv zugänglich. 

Sie hatten es damals leider noch nicht geschafft, bevor die Spirale des Kampfes völlig in die Eskalation ging – obwohl es einige gab, die andere Wege versucht hatten. Aber sie hatten aus den schmerzhaften Ereignissen gelernt, und das steht uns jetzt zur Verfügung, wenn wir uns selbst spüren. 

Die Erschließung dieses über Generationen gereiften, aber noch unerschlossenen Kraftpotentials wird möglich werden, wenn wir uns zu dem Trauma hinwenden, das uns aktuell so sehr Angst macht. Wenn wir uns ihm zuwenden und für uns selbst Verantwortung übernehmen, wird es Anderen nicht mehr möglich sein, unsere Ängste für Ihre selbst angstbasierten Kampfhandlungen nutzbar zu machen. 

Je mehr wir uns unserem eigenen verwundeten Kern zuwenden, desto heiler, desto klarer und desto kraftvoller werden wir. Die Menschheit kann sich selbst befreien.

Und vor zweitausend Jahren war da einer, der wusste, dass wir es irgendwann können werden.

Mögen wir in der Tiefe unseres Selbst unseren natürlichen Zustand wieder finden und unsere Welt in friedlichen Miteinanders neu gestalten.

Bitcoinova potrošnja energije nije „rasipna“

– On je mnogo efikasniji od postojećih finansijskih sistema

– Niko nema moralni autoritet da vam kaže šta je dobra ili loša upotreba energije (npr: gledanje Parova, Zadruge ili Farme)

Hajde da raskrinkamo ovaj FUD (eng. Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt – Strah, Neizvesnost i Sumnju)

U ovom članku istražujem kako je sve oko nas energija, novac je energija, subjektivna upotreba energije i troškovi PoW-a (eng. Proof of work – Dokaz rada) u odnosu na postojeće sisteme upravljanja.

Ideja da je „rad“ energija, započela je kada je francuski matematičar Gaspard-Gustave de Coriolis predstavio ideju da je energija „odrađen rad“. Nekada davno, celokupan posao koji je odrađivan u ekonomiji realizovan je kroz ljuduski rad. Taj rad pokretala je hrana. Pre više hiljada godina, naša potrošnja energije se povećala kada smo pripitomili životinje koje bi mogle da rade umesto nas. Ti novi radnici takođe su morali da budu nahranjeni. Velike količine hrane bile su potrebne da bi se zadovoljile potrebe za energijom, a zajedno sa nama, povećavao se i naš prosperitet.

U poslednjih nekoliko stotina godina napravili smo sjajne mašine koje imaju svrhu izvršavanja tj. proizvodnje odredjenog rada. I mašine i priroda proizvode rad korišćenjem energije (prvi zakon termodinamike). Imamo ekonomiju koja se ne zasniva na novcu, već na radu i energiji.

Sve stvari u našem životu su usko povezane sa cenom energije. Troškovi bilo kog dobra su u velikoj meri odraz energije koja se koristi u proizvodnji tog dobra. Novac, koji predstavlja rad potreban za generisanje dobara i usluga, takođe se može posmatrati kao uskladištena energija.

Početkom 20. veka, ljudi su bili zainteresovani za zamenu zlata ili dolara sa „energetskim dolarom“ ili „jedinicama energije“. Koncept je bio popularan zbog svojih dobrih novčanih karakteristika. Mane? Nije se moglo lako preneti ili skladištiti.

„Da bi muškaraca/ženu naterao da poželi neku stvar, potrebno je samo učiniti stvar teškom za dobijanje.“ – Mark Twain Bitcoin-ov PoW je prvobitno izmišljen kao mera protiv spam email-ova. Tek nešto kasnije, Satoshi ga je prilagodio da se koristi u digitalnoj gotovini.

Ono što PoW rudarenje radi „ispod haube“ je upotreba namenskih mašina (ASIC-a) za pretvaranje električne energije u Bitcoin-e (putem blok nagrade). Bitcoin ima kapitalistički mehanizam glasanja, „rizikovan novac, dobijeni glasovi“ pomoću energije/ASIC-a koji se koriste za generisanje heš-ova (glasova).

Kada je Satoshi dizajnirao PoW, iz temelja je promenio način na koji se formira konsenzus između ljudi od političkih do apolitičnih glasova (heš-ova) pretvaranjem energije. To je najjednostavniji i najpravedniji način da fizički svet potvrdi nešto u digitalnom svetu.

Bitcoin je odlična roba, iskovana iz energije, osnovna roba univerzuma. PoW transformiše električnu energiju u digitalno zlato. Činjenica da je PoW „skup“ je odlika, a ne greška.

Istorijski gledano, obezbeđivanje nečega podrazumevalo je izgradnju fizičkog zida oko svega što je vredno. Knjiga Bitcoin-a je obezbeđena ukupnom sumom energije potrošene za izgradnju digitalnog zida. Bila bi potrebna ekvivalentna količina energije da bi se on srušio (nezaboravna skupoća) @NickSzabo4

„Potrošnja električne energije po transakciji“ je loš KPI, a evo i zašto:

– Potrošena energija je po bloku, a ne po transakciji

– Ekonomska gustina Bitcoin transakcije se povećava (Segwit, taproot, Lightning)

– Trebalo bi da bude definisano sigurnošću ekonomske istorije @LaurentMT . Stopa poboljšanja efikasnosti ASIC-a se usporava. Kako se efikasnost usporava, možemo očekivati porast konkurencije proizvođača kako se marže sužavaju. Sveukupni troškovi rudarenja preći će sa početnih troškova ASIC hardvera na tekuće troškove energije za ostvarivanje rada.

Cena rudarenja Bitcoin-a postaje najniža (višak) vrednost električne energije. Ovo može rešiti problem sa obnovljivim izvorima energije koji imaju predvidivi kapacitet i koji se ne iskorišćava u potpunosti, poput hidroelektrana i gorivog metana.

Aluminijum je bio popularno sredstvo za „izvoz“ električne energije iz zemlje koja obiluje neiskorišćenim obnovljivim izvorima energije (npr. Island). Kako je proizvodnja aluminijuma tokom decenija sazrevala, kWh po kilogramu proizvedenog aluminijuma postajao je efikasniji.

https://www1.eere.energy.gov/manufacturing/resources/aluminum/pdfs/al_theoretical.pdf

PoW je u krajnjem slučaju kupac celokupne električne energije, stvarajući temelj koji podstiče izgradnju novih postrojenja za proizvodnju energije oko različitih izvora energije koji bi inače ostali neiskorišćeni.

„Zamislite topografsku 3D mapu sveta sa žarištima jeftine energije koji su niži, a sa skupom energijom višlji. Zamišljam da je iskopavanje Bitcoin-a slično čaši vode koja se prelila, taložila se po uglovima i ćoškovima i glačala ih. “ – @nic__carter

„Energija koja se koristi za PoW prestaće da raste kada se granični povrat od sagorevanja kWh energije kroz PoW bude jednak graničnom povratu od prodaje tog kWh u mrežu … „ Nakamoto-va tačka“ koja će koristiti između 1-10% svetske energije.“ – @dhruvbansal

Neki se žale da rudarenje Bitcoin-a ne postiže „ništa korisno“, poput pronalaženja prostih brojeva. Bitcoin već radi nešto korisno za društvo. Nije racionalno tražiti od rudara da obavljaju funkciju koja je nesebična bez podsticaja.

Sve zahteva energiju. Tvrdnja da je jedna upotreba energije više ili manje rasipna od druge, potpuno je subjektivna, jer su sve upotrebe plaćene tržišnom stopom za korišćenje te električne energije.

Bitcoin-ova upotreba električnog kapaciteta troši manje količine električne energije od postojećih tradicionalnih sistema koji ne zahtevaju samo napajanje bankarske infrastrukture, već i vojnu i političku mašinu. Kompromis energije je „neto pozitivan“ ishod.

Preko Bitcoin-a, da li je nepoverljivo poravnanje od 1,34T USD između ugovornih strana godišnje, uz dodatni benefit jeftinije energije za sve, vredno 4,5B USD u trenutnim troškovima rudarenja? Mislim da je odgovor odlučno da.

1/ Bitcoin’s energy consumption is not “wasteful.”

- It is much more efficient than existing financial systems
- No one has the moral authority to tell you what is a good or bad use of energy (ex: watching the Kardashians)

Let's debunk this FUD👇

@ f85b9c2c:d190bcff

Focusing on something for an hour a Day for the next 90 days will make you 90% better than others. I’ve been mulling over a simple truth lately, and I’m excited to share it with you. What if I told you that just one hour a day could change your game? Not ten, not five, but one little hour—sixty minutes to claim.

Stick with me here, because I’m about to break it down in a way that’ll make you cheer, with sentences that rhyme and a message that’s clear.

The Magic of One Hour Let’s start with the power that’s ours to devour. One hour a day, no more, no less, can lift you from the mundane mess. It’s not about grinding till you drop, or pushing so hard you flop. It’s a focused burst, a daily deed, planting a tiny, mighty seed. While others scroll or doze away, you’re stacking skills day by day. In 90 days, you’ll see it’s true— you’ll rise above the common crew.

Why 90 Days Works Ninety days, a quarter year, is time enough to shift your gear. It’s short enough to keep the fire, long enough to climb higher. Science says habits form in less, but mastery needs a steady press. An hour each day, consistent and neat, builds a rhythm you can’t beat. While others drift, you’ll stay on track, your progress piling, no looking back.

Be Better Than Most Here’s the kicker, the reason to boast: most folks don’t focus, they just coast. An hour of effort, pure and fine, puts you ahead of ninety-nine. Not because you’re some rare breed, but because you chose to plant that seed. The world’s distracted, screens aglow, but you’ll be steady, in the know. By day ninety, you’ll stand tall, 90% better than them all.

How to Make It Stick Pick your thing, don’t overthink—writing, coding, or a gym link. Set a time, make it rhyme with your daily chime. Shut the noise, close the door, focus deep, and explore. No multitasking, that’s a trap, just one task to bridge the gap. Track your days, feel the groove, watch your skills start to improve.

My Challenge to You So here’s my dare, from me to you: one hour a day, see it through. Ninety days, that’s all I ask, a simple, life-changing task. I’m doing it too, I’m in the race, chasing growth at my own pace. Let’s rise together, you and I, with just an hour, we’ll touch the sky. Start today, don’t delay— one hour a day is all you need, okay?

Die Befragten erzählen, wie sie den Zusammenbruch des Vertrauens vieler Menschen im Land in das mechanistische Muster von Heilung durch Medikamente und Injektionen erlebt haben. Und sie lassen uns teilhaben an ihrem Erfahrungsschatz mit Heilverfahren, welche über mechanistische Verfahren des klassischen Gesundheitswesens hinausweisen. Verfahren, welche dazu beitragen, dass wir Menschen unsere Balance, unser Wohlbefinden erhalten oder wiederfinden. Verfahren, die uns in unsere volle Kraft und Energie bringen, um unsere Möglichkeiten und Potentiale zur Entfaltung zu bringen.

Das Buch erscheint zu einem passenden Zeitpunkt. Zum einen haben viele Menschen seit 2021 am eigenen Körper die Folgen der mRNA Injektionen erlebt und dramatische Schicksale von Angehörigen und Freunden miterlebt.

Zum anderen kommen derzeit vermehrt Informationen in Umlauf, welche die Motive von global agierenden Pharmaziekartellen und von ihnen gesponserten Organisationen wie der Welt-Gesundheits-Organisation WHO offenlegen.

Worum geht es der WHO, die zu 84% von privaten Geldgebern unterhalten wird? Im Jahr 2022 hat die WHO eine Bittschrift für potentielle Sponsoren veröffentlicht, welche den denkwürdigen Titel hat: „A healthy return“. Gemeint ist ein „gesunder“ Geldrückfluß für Geldgeber, welcher eine 3.500 (dreitausendfünfhundert!!!) prozentige Steigerung des Wertes des eingezahlten Geldes in Aussicht stellt. Hier finden Sie Details.

Wieviel Zinsen zahlt Ihre Bank, falls Sie mal Geld übrig haben? Ein, zwei – oder gar drei Prozent? Darf man solch einer Vereinigung das Vertrauen schenken, die Gesundheit der Weltbevölkerung sicherzustellen? Mögen Sie Ihre Zukunft einer Organisation anvertrauen, welche nicht demokratisch legitimiert ist, die unbekümmert mit Genmanipulationen umgeht und die exorbitante Gewinne für ihre Sponsoren im Auge hat?

Die Zeit scheint reif zu sein, uns in Erinnerung zu rufen: Wir Menschen sind komplexe Wesen mit Körper und Seele. Uns zeichnen zauberhafte Potentiale aus. Wir verfügen über ein Gewissen, Achtsamkeit, Dankbarkeit, Demut, Liebe.

Hier schließt sich der Kreis zum Buch von Laurens Dillmann: Die Experten für Gesundheit, Wohlbefinden und Potentialentfaltung wurden nach ihrem Werdegang, ihren Überzeugungen, ihrer konkreten Heilarbeit, ihren Erfolgen und teils auch zu ihrer Position in der globalen aktuellen Krise befragt.

Was das Buch charmant macht, ist die große Buntheit an zusammengetragenen Perspektiven, welche sich durch die Vielfalt der Berufsschwerpunkte der Befragten ergibt. Ein Wildnispädagoge und eine Hebamme, Traumatherapeuten und klassische Ärzte, Medizinwissenschaftler und -ethiker, ein Wildpflanzenexperte und ein Anti-Gewalt-Trainer, eine Gesangs- und Musiktherapeutin, eine Sex-Forscherin und mehrere Psychologen geben sich ein Stelldichein zwischen den Buchdeckeln. Auch wenig verbreitete Aspekte wie Astrologie oder Schamanismus kommen zur Sprache.

In einem Schlusskapitel stellt Sozialarbeiter, Naturpädagoge und Heilpraktiker Mattheo Pfleger in einem Manifest „Pro Leben und Gesundheit 2030“ eine Reihe von sehr weitreichenden Leitlinien für ein Gesundheitswesen der Zukunft vor. Besonders eindrücklich für mich ist sein Vorschlag einer Grundgesetzänderung, in der die Würde des Lebens für unantastbar erklärt wird. Hier kann das Buch erworben werden.

Is Physical Punishment Truly an Effective Way to Discipline Children? Whether flogging or corporal punishment, is a proper way to correct a child often causes disagreement and debate. Over the centuries and around the world, educators, psychologists, parents and lawmakers have argued about it. A person’s behavior is corrected through flogging which is intended to be physically harsh. It is a big concern whether the process helps or leaves people with more damage over time.

Historical Perspective Floggings have been practiced for centuries to discipline people. Years back, many people used disciplinary spanking to encourage children to be disciplined and respectful. It used to be popularly believed that not using discipline made children spoiled. This saying suggested that flogging or some other physical punishment, was both necessary and proper to correct those who did wrong. Presently, things are not the same as they were before. In the last few decades, there has been a major change in what is generally accepted. Child development and psychology research indicate that flogging and different types of punishment might even cause harm.

Effects on Mind and Feelings Experts always see that flogging has negative impact on children’s mental health. Even though it may force someone to cooperate right away, it usually results in fear, resentment and aggression. Instead of showing right from wrong, it makes the child think that being disciplined is humiliating and causes pain. This situation might lower the child’s self-esteem, interfere with their emotional development and hurt the relationship between the child and the parent. Also, flogging does little to deal with the real reason why someone acts this way. It only worries about how to punish instead of trying to understand why the behavior occurred. A correct approach involves explaining the problem with what they did and supporting them to improve their decisions next time.

Having Questions About What Is Legal and Ethical Many countries now forbid flogging and other corporal punishments in both schools and homes. Children’s freedom from physical harm is becoming recognized more often in the law. UNCRC claims that children should be protected from all types of physical and mental abuse.

Ethical concerns are raised by the practice of using flogging to discipline people. It goes against the main principles of respect and dignity. Their growth as human beings calls for proper guidance, so kids can become mature and caring adults. When they are beaten, children often learn that violence is a way to find solutions.

What Can Be Used Instead of Flogging There are a lot of peaceful and successful steps you can take to guide how a child behaves. Settings ground rules, using praise for good behaviors, always keeping communication clear and giving the same consequences help. By giving praise for good behavior, you help the child want to act that way again. Giving a time-out or taking away things a person enjoys is a gentle way to deal with misbehavior.

In addition, these approaches help fix behavior problems and allow the child and caregiver to form trust and communicate openly. Through play, children learn to control themselves, feel empathy and solve problems which they need for their ongoing growth.

Conclusion In short, flogging does not make sense or work as a way to correct a child. Despite making the child obey at the moment, it often seriously harms a child’s emotional, psychological and moral growth in the future. Today’s parenting and educating focus on methods that fix misbehavior and boost a child’s confidence and sense of safety. Real correction teaches the child, helps them make right choices and encourages them to be responsible and caring. Flogging is not successful in reaching these goals. Rather, it causes a pattern of violence and fear that can cause serious damage in the long run. So, flogging should be understood not as a punishment, but as something harmful that society should forget about.

U redu, dakle stekli ste neku količinu Bitcoin-a, i koji je sada najbolji način za njegovo čuvanje? Ovde ću vas provesti kroz proces pronalaženja pravog Bitcoin novčanika za vas.

Iako se čini kao jednostavno pitanje, ima iznenađujuće puno nijansi koje treba razmotriti. Koliko Bitcoin-a imate? Koliko često planirate da ga trošite? Da li ste sigurni da su vaši ključevi sigurniji kod vas nego kod offline čuvara? Odgovori na ova pitanja pomoći će vam da pronadjete pravo rešenje za vas.

Bitcoin je nosilac imovine, što znači da i sami možete držati ključeve svog Bitcoin-a. Kada držite svoje Bitcoin ključeve, vi imate direktnu kontrolu nad svojim novcem. Nije povereno nijednoj trećoj strani, poput banke. Trebate držati svoje ključeve onda kada utvrdite da je rizik da ih lično držite manji od rizika da ih čuvar izgubi. Donošenje te odluke oslanja se uglavnom na vaše razumevanje kako i zašto držati svoje Bitcoin ključeve. U ovom članku ću vam pomoći da razumete obe strane.

U ovom članku ćemo istražiti:

• „Nisu vaši ključevi, nije vaš Bitcoin“
• Bezbednost vs Konfor
• Vrste Bitcoin novčanika
• Postavke Multisig-a
• Moja preporuka za izbor najboljeg novčanika za VAS

Zato počnimo polako.

Bitcoin Je Nosilac Imovine

U kriptografiji, javni ključ(public key) se koristi za šifrovanje poruka, a privatni ključ(private key) za njihovo dešifrovanje. Ako bi neko želeo da vam pošalje šifrovanu poruku, šifrirao bi je vašim javnim ključem. Vaš privatni ključ je jedini način za dešifrovanje te poruke, pa sve dok ste jedina osoba koja drži taj privatni ključ, vi ste i jedina osoba koja može pročitati poruku.

Bitcoin koristi kriptografiju javnog/privatnog ključa da bi osigurao transakcije. Privatni ključ se kreira kada napravite Bitcoin novčanik. Novčanik stvara javne ključeve koji se heširaju i koriste kao adrese za prijem Bitcoin-a. Privatni ključ je potreban da bi se dokazalo vlasništvo nad uskladištenim Bitcoin-om na toj adresi kako bi se mogao potrošiti.

Ako lično ne kontrolišete privatne ključeve povezane sa vašim Bitcoin-om, onda zapravo ne posedujete svoj Bitcoin. Drugim rečima, ako menjačnica ili banka drži vaše Bitcoin-e u vaše ime, vi onda nemate direktnu kontrolu nad svojim Bitcoin-ima. Vi prenosite sigurnost svog Bitcoin-a drugoj stranci.

Da biste u potpunosti iskoristili jedinstvene osobine Bitcoin-a kao novca, vi trebate da držite svoje privatne ključeve. Kao što Bitcoineri često kažu „nisu vaši ključevi, nije vaš Bitcoin“. Ovo vam pruža mogućnost držanja vašeg Bitcoin-a pod vašim nadzorom, tako da ga države, banke ili hakeri koji ga ciljaju ne mogu zapleniti ili oduzeti. Ali odabir držanja sopstvenih ključeva dolazi sa odredjenom odgovornošću za bezbednost vašeg Bitcoin-a.

Moj cilj je da vam pomognem da postanete konforni sa mogućnošću držanja svojih ključeva. Do tada, Bitcoin če biti sigurniji na novčaniku vaše menjačnice.

Sada ćemo pogledati koje opcije imate za preuzimanje kontrole nad sopstvenim Bitcoin ključevima.

Bezbednost vs Komfor

Komprimis: Bezbednost vs Komfor

Glavni kompromis koji treba uzeti u obzir prilikom skladištenja vašeg Bitcoin-a je između bezbednosti i konfora. Očigledno je da su i bezbednost i konfor poželjne osobine prilikom čuvanja vašeg Bitcoin-a, ali se međusobno direktno suprotstavljaju.

Gde se vi nalazite u spektru bezbednosti nasuprot konfora?

Postavite sebi ova pitanja da biste stekli bolji utisak o tome koji način čuvanja za vas ima najviše smisla:

• Ukupna vrednost – da li skladištite na nivou od 0,1%, 1% ili 10 +% vaše neto vrednosti u Bitcoin-u? Odgovor bi trebao da vam da vrlo različite metode čuvanja vašeg Bitcoin-a. Očigledno biste bili spremni da pretrpite više neprijatnosti ako to znači zaštitu 50% vaše neto vrednosti.
• Vremenski okvir/dostupnost – Kada i koliko često imate potrebu da trošite svoje Bitcoin-e? Da li je to više kao tekući račun, srednjoročni štedni račun ili je vaš Bitcoin sličniji dugoročnom penzionom računu?

“Pazite da podešavanje vaše zaštite ne bude tako složeno da čak i vi zaboravite kako dostupiti vašom Bitcoin-u“

Od Bitcoinera se mogu čuti upozoravajuće priče o ljudima koji gube svoje Bitcoin-e zbog prekomplikovanih podešavanja čuvanja, što rezultira time da vlasnik zaboravi kako da pristupi svojim novčićima.

Pregled Novčanika: Istraživanje Hardverskih, Mobilnih, Desktop i Multisig Bitcoin Novčanika

Sada kada ste odlučili da nabavite nekoliko Bitcoin-a (pametan potez) vreme je da odlučite gde ćete čuvati vaš Bitcoin. Kada započinjete, ovo vam može dati nadmoćan osećaj. U ovom odeljku ću vam dati kratki pregled opcija kojima raspolažete. Kao i u većini stvari u životu, i ovde se radi o kompromisima.

Hardverski Bitcoin Novčanici

Korisnici čuvaju privatne ključeve na namenskom hardverskom delu.

Prednosti: Privatni ključevi nikada ne dolaze u dodir sa internetom, što smanjuje rizik od njihovih gubitaka. Pogodno za dugotrajno skladištenje. Ako izgubite hardverski novčanik, možete da upotrebite backup seed fraze (eng. seed phrase backup) da biste vratili novčanik.

Mane: Korisnici moraju da obezbede backup seed fraze, što zahteva promišljenu strategiju kako da je zaštite. Preporučuje se da zapišete svoju seed frazu na metal i sačuvate rezervne kopije na više sigurnih lokacija. Ako vam ukradu hardverski novčanik, dolazite u rizik hakovanja vaših sredstava. Napomena: zaštita backup seed fraze je standardna praksa za novčanike gde korisnik kontroliše svoje privatne ključeve.

Primeri: Ledger, Trezor, Coldcard i BitBox

Mobilni Bitcoin Novčanici

Korisnici čuvaju privatne ključeve na mobilnom uređaju.

Prednosti: Jednostavan za upotrebu, dobar za početnike, pogodan za male iznose.

Mane: Najmanje sigurna opcija jer se privatni ključevi nalaze na uređaju povezanom na Internet. Ako napadač stekne fizički pristup vašem telefonu, može proslediti sredstva u njegov novčanik. Nije dobro za dugotrajno skladištenje.

Primeri: Block­stream Green, Samourai (samo za Android), Muun, Blue Wallet, Electrum

Desktop Bitcoin Novčanici

Korisnici čuvaju privatne ključeve na svom desktop/laptop računaru

Prednosti: Dobro korisničko iskustvo.

Mane: Nije baš bezbedno, jer su računari povezani na internet i podložni virusima i napadima. Nije dobro za dugotrajno čuvanje.

Primeri: Bitcoin Core i Electrum (napredni), Wasabi (srednji), Block­stream Green (početni). Wasabi je verovatno najbolji novčanik za privatnost, a Block­stream Green je najbolji početnički desktop novčanik.

Multisignature Bitcoin Novčanici

Korisnik čuva privatne ključeve u posebnom novčaniku za koji je potrebno da potpiše više privatnih ključeva pre nego što može da premešta svoja sredstva. Na primer, u „2 od 3“ multisig (eng. multisignature – više potpisa) novčaniku, korisniku su potrebna bilo koja dva od tri privatna ključa za slanje sredstava.

Prednosti: Jedan od najsigurnijih načina za čuvanje vašeg Bitcoin-a, smanjuje efikasnost fizičkih napada, pogodan za dugoročno skladištenje.

Mane: Teško ga je samostalno podesiti, ali postoji nekoliko servisa koji olakšavaju ovaj proces. Nije pogodno za potrošnju, a to može predstavljati i poentu.

Primeri: Unchained Capital’s Vault (2 od 3), Casa’s Keymaster (2 od 3 i 3 od 5), Block­steam Green (2 od 2), Electrum.

Vruće vs Hladno – (hot vs Cold) Bitcoin Novčanici: U čemu je razlika?

Vrući novčanici su povezani na Internet. To znači da je ključevima lakše pristupiti nego kada su na hardverskom novčaniku, a to takođe znači i da su vaša sredstva ranjiva na napade hakera. Vruće novčanike preporučujem samo za male količine.

Hladni novčanici NISU povezani sa Internetom. To znači da je vašim sredstvima teže pristupiti. Hladni novčanici su manje pogodni za korisnike, ali hakeri mnogo teže mogu da pristupe vašim sredstvima. Hladne novčanike treba smatrati jedinom opcijom za dugoročno čuvanje.

Bitcoin Novčanik – Backup Fraza

Većina novčanika zahteva od korisnika da zapišu „backup seed frazu“. Ovo je mera predostrožnosti u slučaju da izgubite pristup svojim privatnim ključevima/novčaniku. To takođe znači da korisnici moraju biti vrlo oprezni sa svojim rezervnim kopijama jer one sadrže sve potrebne informacije za pristup vašim sredstvima. Tretirajte i čuvajte svoje rezervne kopije na način kao što bi tretirali i čuvali gomilu zlata.

• Ne pravite slike ili snimke ekrana svoje backup fraze
• Ne izgovarajte naglas svoju backup frazu – ikad!
• Ne čuvajte svoju semensku frazu Password Manager Aplikaciji
• Ne koristite Internet uslugu oporavka backup fraze
• Koristite pristupnu frazu (passphrase) da biste dodali još sigurnosti
• Koristite više metoda za pravljenje rezervnih kopija
• Ograničite pristup svojoj backup frazi što je više moguće
• Nikada ne razgovarajte sa ljudima gde, kako i koliko Bitcoin-a čuvate

Tako izgleda „backup seed fraza“

Bitcoin Novčanici Bez Seed-ova

Drugi način za čuvanje Bitcoin-a su novčanici bez seed-ova. Oni su dizajnirani za multisig akaunte, gde korisnici ne kreiraju backup seed-ove, već se oslanjaju na uslugu rezervne kopije. Casa prednjači u novčanicima bez seed-ova sa svojim Keymaster multisignaturnim proizvodom.

Bitcoin Multisignature: Kako radi

Umesto da zahtevaju jedan potpis privatnog ključa za premeštanje sredstava, multisig novčanici zahtevaju više potpisa za premeštanje sredstava. Postoji mnogo načina za pravljenje multisig novčanika, ali iskoristimo postavku 2 od 3 za naš primer.

Kao korisnik, to znači da imate ukupno 3 privatna ključa koji odgovaraju jednom Bitcoin novčaniku. Da biste prebacili sredstva, potrebna su vam najmanje 2 privatna ključa za potpisivanje transakcije. Većina korisnika će fizički odvojiti lokacije svakog ključa kako bi što više smanjili rizik. Samo nemojte biti previše kreativni, da ne prevarite i sebe i na taj način izgubite svoja sredstva (to se dogodilo mnogo puta).

Kao što je gore pomenuto, evo nekoliko primera Multisig­na­ture novčanika

• Block­steam Green Wallet (2 od 2)
• Casa’s Keymaster (2 od 3 i 3 od 5)
• Unchained Capital’s Vault (2 od 3)
• Electrum

Prednosti Multisig-a

Multisig nudi prostor za greške. Ako imate samo jedan privatni ključ i izgubite ga, vaša sredstva će se zauvek izgubiti. Međutim, ako imate podešavanje 2 od 3, možete sebi priuštiti da izgubite jedan privatni ključ i dalje pristupite svojim sredstvima.

Multisig takođe smanjuje šanse za moguće fizičke napade. Recimo da ste fizički ugroženi i primorani da se odreknete svog dragocenog Bitcoin-a. Ako ste imali normalan novčanik (a ne multisig), onda biste lako mogli da prebacite svoj Bitcoin tom kom vas napada. Međutim, ako ste postavili multisig podešavanja, jedan od vaših ključeva je u kući, a drugi ključ na nekom drugom mestu (npr. vaša kancelarija ili sef u banci). Ovakvo razdvajanje ključeva u velikoj meri smanjuje želju tog napadača da uopšte pokuša da preotme vaš Bitcoin.

Zašto Moj Bitcoin Novčanik Stalno Menja Moju Adresu?

Svaki skup privatnih ključeva može generisati bilione javnih ključeva. Ovi javni ključevi se zatim transformišu (kroz matematički proces zvan heširanje) da bi se proizvele javne adrese.

Svaka pojedinačna adresa može da primi Bitcoin. Dakle, svaki skup privatnih ključeva koji posedujete sposoban je da proizvede svoj jedinstveni, masivni skup javnih adresa koje posedujete vi, i samo vi. Svako može da pošalje Bitcoin na te javne adrese, ali samo onaj koji poseduje te privatne ključeve može trošiti Bitcoin sa tih adresa.

Mnogi ljudi vole da uporedjuju privatne ključeve, javne adrese i Bitcoin novčanike sa e-mail adresama. Privatni ključevi su vaša lozinka, javna adresa je vaša e-mail adresa, a novčanik je e-mail domen koji koristite (npr. Gmail, Protonmail, Yahoo itd.). Iako je korisna, ova analogija pomalo obmanjuje, jer sa Bitcoin-om svaka lozinka (privatni ključ) koju posedujete omogućava pristup bilionima potencijalnih e-mail adresa (javnih adresa) za slanje i primanje Bitcoin-a.

Nema razloga za brigu ako vaš novčanik stalno generiše nove Bitcoin adrese. To je zapravo jedna od njegovih karakteristika! Novčanici koji generišu i koriste nove javne adrese pomažu u zaštiti vaše privatnosti od ljudi koji „njuškaju“ na javnom Bitcoin blockchain-u. Samo zapamtite da sve dok vi držite privatne ključeve novčanika, samo vi posedujete sadašnji i budući Bitcoin, poslat na bilo koju javnu adresu koju je generisao vaš novčanik. Samo se pobrinite da privatni ključevi Bitcoin-a budu sigurni, bezbedni i privatni.

Moja Preporuka: Neka Procenat Neto Vrednosti Vodi Vaš Izbor Bitcoin Novčanika

Najjednostavniji način pristupanja izbora koji novčanik će te odabrati za vaš Bitcoin je fokusiranje na pitanje „koliko novca je u igri?“. Drugim rečima, koji procenat vaše neto vrednosti je zaštićen? Evo naše analize, ali naravno, situacija svake osobe je jedinstvena. Koristite ovo kao smernicu, a ne kao apsolutnu istinu.

Male količine (oko 0,1% neto vrednosti) – Koristite mobilni Bitcoin novčanik

• Block­stream Green – ima multisig 2 od 2. To je verovatno najbolji Bitcoin novčanik za iPhone.
• Casa Keymaster (režim sa jednim ključem) – rezervna kopija bez seed-a.

Srednji iznosi (oko 1% neto vrednosti) – Koristite hardverski Bitcoin novčanik

• Ledger
• Trezor
• Coldcard

Velike količine (više od 10% + neto vrednost) – Koristite Multisig Bitcoin novčanik

• Casa Keymaster Multisig —  interfejs koji je jednostavan za korišćenje, možete birati postavke 2 od 3 i 3 od 5. Oni imaju alat za samooporavak, međutim ovo nisam lično koristio, i želeo bih da obavim više istraživanja pre nego što dam pravu preporuku.
• Unchained Capital’s Multisig —  interfejs koji je jednostavan za korišćenje, postavka 2 od 3, može pristupiti finansijskim uslugama zasnovanim na vašem BTC u depozitu.
• Self Hosted Multisig —  korisnici takođe mogu da kreiraju sopstvene multisig postavke. Ovo zahteva mnogo veće tehničko znanje u poređenju sa Unchained i Casa, međutim, ne žrtvujete nikakvu privatnost.

Protip: Rapodelite sredstva koja želite da skladištite dugoročno. Ako imate značajan deo svoje neto vrednosti u Bitcoin-u, u vašem je najboljem interesu da raspodelite svoj ulog. Ovo umanjuje vaš rizik, što smanjuje šanse da budete izbrisani. Na primer, trećinu svog Bitcoin-a čuvajte sa Casa multisig-om, drugu trećinu sa Unchained Capital Vault-om, a preostalu trećinu na hardverskom novčaniku (Cold Card, Ledger ili Trezor).

Da Zaokružimo Priču

Ovo je moj rezime vaših mogućnosti izbora Bitcoin-ovih novčanika i kako odabrati pravi od njih uzimajući u obzir privatne ključeve, načine i stepen zaštite i sigurnosti koji oni pružaju. Ako ste i dalje zastrašeni, bez brige. Preporučujemo da preuzmete kontrolu nad vašim Bitcoin ključevima samo kada budete sigurni u uslugu koja vam se pruža. Ali vas podstičemo da i dalje razmatrate jedinstvenu priliku koju vam pruža Bitcoin: mogućnost da imate apsolutnu kontrolu nad svojim bogatstvom.

Samostalno čuvanje je vremenom sve lakše i lakše. Razmotrite svoju situaciju i odaberite način čuvanja koji najbolje odgovara vama. Ovde sam da vam pomognem, i slobodno mi se obratite sa svim pitanjima koja vas zanimaju.

Let's dive into the most interesting forward-looking predictions from my recent conversations with industry experts.

Court Cases Against Bitcoin Developers Will Set Critical Precedent for the Industry's Future - Zack Shapiro

The outcome of the Samurai Wallet case will determine whether software developers can be held legally responsible for how users employ their non-custodial Bitcoin tools. Zack Shapiro laid out the stakes clearly: "The precedent that the Bank Secrecy Act can be applied to just software that allows you to move your own money on the Bitcoin blockchain is incredibly dangerous for developers, for node runners, for miners... Basically everyone in the Bitcoin space is at risk here."

According to Shapiro, the government's position in this case fundamentally misunderstands Bitcoin's architecture: "The government says that the defendants transmitted, Keone and Bill transmitted money that they knew belonged to criminals. That's not how a coin join works. The people who transmitted the money are the people that used Whirlpool and the people that used Ricochet. They signed their keys."

Should this prosecution succeed in establishing precedent, Shapiro predicts catastrophic consequences: "If that becomes the law of the land... then basically no actor in the Bitcoin economy is safe. The government's theory is that if you facilitate movement of money, you're a money transmitter, that would reach node runners, wallet developers, miners, lightning routing nodes... whatever tool stack you use, the people who built that are at risk."

With the case continuing despite FinCEN's own position that Samurai's software isn't money transmission, Shapiro believes the resolution will likely come through political rather than legal channels in the next 6-12 months.

Malpractice Around COVID mRNA Vaccines Will Be Exposed Within 2 Years - Dr. Jack Kruse

Dr. Jack Kruse predicts that major revelations about mRNA vaccine damage will force an eventual removal from the market, particularly from childhood vaccination schedules. During our conversation, Dr. Kruse shared alarming statistics: "25,000 kids a month are getting popped with this vaccine. Just so you know, since Trump has been elected, three million doses have been given to children."

According to Dr. Kruse, the scale of this problem dwarfs other health concerns: "The messenger job can drop you like Damar Hamlin, can end your career like JJ Watt, can end your career like all the footballers who've dropped dead on a soccer field." What makes this particularly concerning is the suppression of evidence about the damages, with Dr. Kruse noting that data from Japan showing changes in cancer distribution patterns was pulled, and VAERS data being dismissed despite showing alarming signals.

Dr. Kruse believes the coming years will see an unavoidable reckoning: "If by the end of this year, everybody in unison realized that MRA platform is bad news and it's gone. That to me is... I would tell you the biggest win is to get rid of the MRA platform even before any of the Bitcoin stuff." This suggests he expects significant momentum toward removing these vaccines from circulation by the end of 2025.

Global Economic Reordering Will Create Demand for Neutral Reserve Assets Like Bitcoin and Gold - Lyn Alden

The next two years will be critical in determining whether the United States maintains dollar dominance while navigating Triffin's dilemma. During our conversation, Lyn highlighted how the current administration is attempting to thread a needle between reshoring manufacturing while maintaining the dollar's reserve status - an almost impossible task on extremely fragile ground.

"When they talk about kind of a currency accord to weaken the dollar, they mentioned ideally they wanted to use multi-lateral approaches, but there are some unilateral approaches that they can do, which includes printing dollars to buy reserve assets," Lyn explained when discussing Treasury advisor Stephen Myron's position paper.

As the world potentially moves to a multipolar currency system, Lyn predicts significant demand increases for neutral reserve assets. "The two options on the table at this point are gold and Bitcoin," she noted, but pointed out that "our geopolitical adversaries have been stacking gold for a while and with a special intensity for the last three years." This creates a strategic opportunity for the US, as Bitcoin is "overwhelmingly held in the United States."

Lyn believes this transition is already underway, with the demand for neutral reserve assets like Bitcoin growing as countries seek alternatives to solely dollar-denominated reserves.

Iran's Shadow Mining Economy: 2 GW of Bitcoin Mined Underground While Legal Operations Struggle

Iran hosts a thriving underground Bitcoin mining industry that has emerged as a critical financial lifeline for citizens grappling with international sanctions and domestic economic controls. This shadow economy dwarfs the legal sector, with an estimated 2 gigawatts of illegal mining operations compared to just 5 megawatts of sanctioned activity.

According to ViraMiner CEO Masih Alavi, approximately 800,000 illegal miners have been discovered and fined by authorities. Yet operations continue in homes, office buildings, and even jewelry stores, where Iranians tap into unmetered electricity to mine Bitcoin, later converting it to stablecoins like USDT for savings and commerce.

While the government has approved permits for about 400 megawatts of legal mining capacity, punitive electricity tariffs and regulatory barriers have strangled legitimate operations. "I blamed the government for this situation," says Alavi. "They introduced flawed policies in the beginning, especially by setting the wrong electricity tariffs for the mining industry."

Despite using obsolete equipment like Antminer S9s and M3s, underground miners remain profitable when converting earnings to Iranian rials, creating an ecosystem that serves an estimated 18 million Iranian cryptocurrency holders.

Looking ahead, Alavi predicts further crackdowns as Iran enters peak electricity demand season, potentially reducing legal mining to zero while underground operations continue to evolve sophisticated detection evasion techniques.

So sehr man sich auch Mühe gibt, es will vielen einfach nicht gelingen, Russland als den Feind anzusehen.

Wenn ein fremder Mann eine Frau unfreiwillig zum Tanz auf’s Parkett zerrt und der Ehemann dem fremden Mann wie auch immer zu verstehen gibt, dass das so nicht geht, dann kann man nicht sagen, der Ehemann habe einen Streit vom Zaun gebrochen.

Eine Reaktion setzt immer eine Aktion voraus.

Nicht Russland ist der NATO auf die Pelle gerückt, sondern die NATO mit der Osterweiterung Russland.

Russland wollte mit Auflösung des Warschauer Pakts eine gemeinsame europäische Militärlösung, die die Neuordnung der NATO oder gar ebenfalls ihre Auflösung zur Folge gehabt hätte.

Der sogenannte Wertewesten ist maßgeblich für den Krieg in der Ukraine verantwortlich. Völkerrechtswidrigkeit kann man weglassen, da es auch im Westen, von den USA, mehrfach Beispiele für völkerrechtswidrige Angriffe auf andere Staaten gibt. Und Deutschland hat im Kosovo auch nicht nur Kaffee für die Truppen gekocht.

Wer im Glashaus sitzt, sollte nicht mit Steinen werfen.

Wenn Deutschland, vertreten durch einen Kanzler 2. Wahl über die nicht mehr vorhandene Reichweitenbeschränkung spricht, das Wahlvieh, den ehemaligen Souverän, im Ungewissen über die Lieferung des Stiers lässt, und dann, wie aus heiterem Himmel, Taurus, mit deutschem Kompass und deutschen Kompassbedienern, auf einmal Richtung Krim-Brücke oder gar Moskau unterwegs sein sollte, wen würde es dann wundern, wenn Moskau seine „Liebesgrüße“, schon allein aus reiner Höflichkeit und Anstand, nach Schrobenhausen sendet?

Würde das passieren, würde man in Deutschland sagen: Seht ihr, wir haben es euch ja immer gesagt, ihr wolltet es nur nicht glauben. Russland, mit seinem imperialen Anspruch und seinem aggressiven Verhalten, der Friedensverhinderer, der böse Putin, der böse Russ‘, wird uns angreifen! Die geforderte Kriegstüchtigkeit war also absolut berechtigt!

Wer das dann immer noch glaubt, dem möchte man eine Rakete in den Kamin seiner Doppelhaushälfte mit Gänsemuster-Gardinen am Küchenfenster stecken.

Wenn man jemanden bis auf’s Blut reizt, ist es ihm dann zu verdenken, wenn ihm irgendwann der Geduldsfaden reißt, nachdem schon mehrere Rote Linien überschritten wurden?

Und warum reizt man Russland bis auf’s Blut? Man kann zu keinem anderen Grund kommen, als dass die Geistesgrößen in Deutschland unbedingt einen Krieg wollen. Wozu? Ist das die von wem auch immer geplante Vollendung der Zerstörung Deutschlands? Der zukünftige Ex-Kanzler redet einen Haufen vermeintlich kluges Zeug daher, aber Russland handelt klug. Kleiner Unterschied.

Rheingold ist in gewöhnliches Rheinmetall, wohl durch Geheim-Alchimie, verwandelt worden. Geheim wird ja jetzt wieder modern. Man kann nur hoffen, dass es in der Taurussland-Rakete tatsächlich US-amerikanische Komponenten gibt, die (vielleicht sogar in Wiesbaden?) abgeschaltet werden können, damit der Stier nicht fliegen kann. Und man kann auch nur hoffen, dass die USA sie dann auch wirklich abschalten.

Die Meyer-Werft in Papenburg soll demnächst auch „Meine Fregatte“ und „Kreuzer grau I bis IX“ bauen. Panzerkreuzerfahrten in der Ostsee mit Blick auf Königsberg, na bravo, tolle Idee. (Da war doch mal was?). Gute Erholung schon jetzt. Da wird die vom Kaiser für den Aufbau der Marine eingeführte Sektsteuer endlich wieder ihrem eigentlichen Zweck zugeführt.

Und wie der ehemalige Masken-Chef-Einkäufer erst jüngst in einer der unsäglichen Staatsfunk-Aufführungen lichtblitzartig erkannt haben muss, spricht Putin Deutsch. Nein, doch, oh! Man stelle sich das einmal vor. Ganz was Neues! Die jetzt für die deutsche Bevölkerung geheim gehaltenen militärischen Absprachen werden nun in einer Sprache in Berlin besprochen, von denen man vorher sorgfältig, wie immer, recherchiert hat, dass Putin sie sicher nicht spricht, damit er nichts mitbekommt. Pssst, Feind hört mit! Den Beruf des Dolmetschers oder Übersetzers hat das Arbeitsamt in der Berufsberatung in der Schulzeit des Bankkaufmanns wahrscheinlich nicht vorgestellt, daher existieren sie für ihn nicht.

Und welche militärischen Entscheidungen von den deutschen "Chef-Diplomaten" getroffen wurden, das erfährt die Bevölkerung ja spätestens, wenn es knallt. Das reicht ja auch.

Was kommt als nächstes? Nach selbst genähten Maulwindeln jetzt eine Nähanleitung für schwere Gardinen zur Fenster-Verdunkelung? Oder gibt es die bald schon fertig in allen Größen zu kaufen, bei einem Discounter, wie in Berlin jetzt Macheten, damit man sich im Garten wieder den Weg zum Geräteschuppen bahnen kann.

Ils sont fous ces Allemands!

You may want to believe that the world works like a video game, where you can press the pause button, come back three months later and everything will be waiting for you exactly as you left it. But real life doesn’t work like that. The difference is that in the video game you are in control, whereas in real life you are not. Maybe you want to believe that the worst is over, but this is just getting started. Supply chains are breaking down and the economy is starting to collapse. To make it clear, “the economy” is not something abstract; it’s real people losing their jobs, their businesses, their incomes and their homes. Your authoritarian fantasies will just make it worse for you and others until you cannot handle it anymore and you accept reality and surrender to it. I get that you are afraid, and that’s OK. But to hold your fellow human beings hostage because you are afraid is not OK. It’s getting to the point where if you still support lockdowns, mandatory vaccines, mandatory tracking, mandatory testing or mandatory anything you have blood on your hands. History will not judge you kindly.

Then there are those of you who want to believe that the bailouts and the “universal basic income” will make the problems disappear. For example, I read Charles Eisenstein in his otherwise excellent piece The Coronation come up with all this UBI nonsense. You probably realize that if you grab a piece of paper and write “$1,000,000” on it with a marker pen of your favorite color, you don’t become magically rich. But you still want to believe that if the government does exactly the same thing, your problems will go away. On the one hand, even if you are not fully aware of it, you realize that the government and its satellite corporations are abusing you and sucking your blood more and more every day. Yet on the other hand, you keep begging your very abusers that are trying to deprive you from earning an honest living for yourself to give you a measly monthly UBI check in the hopes that it will magically make you feel good and solve your problems.

Aside from the fact that printing money cannot solve the issue the governments themselves have created in the first place with their mandatory lockdowns: maybe you expect that you can control your masters, or that they will benevolently give you the UBI check with no strings attached. Of course not: receiving the check will likely be tied to being a “good law-abiding citizen” (a.k.a. obedient slave); something like the social credit system they have in China. You will end up completely disempowered and depending on the government to even feed yourself and have shelter. I find it quite infuriating and sad that any “spiritual teacher” would want that for you and that you fall for it.

Consider this:

The issue is not the coronavirus itself. The virus is just revealing the cracks in the system.

You are not a victim. You always have the power. Not the power to start a “revolution”, mind you, which just consists in replacing the old abusers with new ones. As Buckminster Fuller said: “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

You have the power to walk away from this dying system of nation-state governments and fiat “money” and into the nascent paradigm of cryptocurrencies and decentralized governance. But first you have to question and confront the beliefs you have accepted as “reality”. It’s hard, I know, but unavoidable. So, the sooner you begin, the better for yourself and for humanity. Do you want to be free or do you just want to have a “fair” master?

1. Šta je blockchain?
2. Kako mogu da saznam više o Bitcoin-u?

Ukoliko niste pročitali naš uvodni tekst o Bitcoin-u, i zašto vam je važno da to učinite, onda prvo pročitajte: Šta je Bitcoin i kako on može da nam pomogne?

Bitcoin, sa velikim B na početku, odnosi se na mrežu računara koji održavaju knjigu stanja na akauntima bitcoin digitalne valute, slično kao što banke održavaju knjigu stanja na računima dolara, eura ili neke druge valute. Bitcoin softver, odnosno protokol, takođe omogućava korisnicima da putem interneta pošalju bitcoin-e sa svog akaunta na drugi akaunt, slično PayPal-u ili Venmo-u, ali bez kompanije koja pruža uslugu prenosa. Bitcoin softver je otvorenog koda, tako da svako može da ga pokrene na svom računaru i da se pridružiti mreži.

Najbolji način da se razume kako Bitcoin funkcioniše “iznutra” je da ga zamislimo kao finansijski sistem. Naš trenutni finansijski sistem, koji uglavnom koristi dolare, eure, dinare i druge valute kao „novac“, izgleda otprilike ovako:

Centralne banke i vlade proizvode i distribuiraju novac pozajmljujući ga ljudima, i trošeći ga na oružje, puteve i socijalne programe. Ovaj sistem se naziva sistemom zasnovanom na dugovima, jer svaki put kada banka da zajam, stvara se nova valuta koja ranije nije postojala. Ova valuta ima vrednost jer dug koji ju je stvorio ima vrednost: primalac zajma obećava da će otplatiti svoj dug banci, plus kamate.

Kad god banka odobri kredit, ona stvara novu valutu. Ovo takodje važi i kada podignete hipoteku ili kredit za auto. Takođe se primenjuje i kada Američke Federalne Rezerve kupuju državne obveznice od vlade Sjedinjenih Država. U svakom od ovih slučajeva, banka šalje novonastalu valutu primaocu zajma. Primaoc zajma obećava banci da će u budućnosti vratiti tu valutu, plus kamate. Međutim, ulaz nove valute u sistem znači i da opada vrednost postojeće valute koja je u opticaju. To se dešava kroz proces koji se obično naziva inflacija.

Da bi imali koristi od pogodnih usluga koje nude banke, poput kreditnih kartica i digitalnih transfera novca, normalni ljudi i preduzeća obično novac drže na bankovnim računima. Svaka banka poseduje svoju knjigu sa računima svih svojih klijenata.

Banke su neophodne da bi omogućile digitalna plaćanja koja vršimo svakodnevno, jer su nam potrebne pouzdane strane koje bi proverile da li se sav računovodstveni sistem sabira. U suprotnom, bilo bi lako da neko uradi “copy-paste“ jednog dela digitalnog novca i da ga potroši dva puta, ili da doda par nula na stanje svog računa.

Sada razumemo nekoliko ključnih tačaka o trenutnom sistemu zasnovanom na dugu: banke proizvode novu valutu svaki put kad pozajmljuju novac, a većina ljudi svoj novac čuva u bankama koje im nude pogodnosti.

Bitcoin je malo drugačiji. Hajde da započnemo ovo putovanje sa pitanjem.

Šta ako bi svi posedovali knjigu stanja na računima, baš kao i banka?

Umesto da banke poseduju po jednu knjigu depozita svojih klijenata, šta ako svi poseduju istu knjigu, sa detaljnim opisima svih stanja na računima svih učesnika u ekonomiji? O privatnosti ne morate da brinete ni na trenutak – to ćemo objasniti kasnije.

Hajde da vidimo kako bi transakcija mogla da se izvrši koristeći ovakav bankarski sistem. Recimo da Ana želi da plati Davidu 10 digitalnih „novčića“. Ona tu transakciju zapisuje u e-mail, potpisuje je digitalno kako bi svi bili sigurni da e-mail dolazi od stvarne Ane, i šalje ga svima ostalima. Kada ostali prime taj e-mail, oni ažuriraju svoje knjige, tako što skinu 10 novčića sa Aninog računa i dodaju 10 novčića na Davidov račun.

Zašto bi se neko trudio da evidentira transakciju u svojoj knjizi?

Recimo da će prva osoba koja izvrši sledeće korake dobiti 5 novčića:

1. Proverom da li je prava Ana potpisala transakciju
2. Proverom da li Ana ima dovoljno sredstava na svom računu da plati Davidu 10 novčića
3. Zapisivanje transakcije ukoliko ispunjava uslove 1) i 2)

Primetićete da se ovo mnogo razlikuje od trenutnog monetarnog sistema. U novom sistemu morate da imate novčiće da biste mogli da ih date nekom drugom. Ne postoje banke sa posebnim privilegijama koje mogu da stvore valutu davanjem zajma.

Umesto da dozvoljava samo maloj grupi bankara da prave nove valute, novi sistem omogućava svima da kreiraju novu valutu ako pružaju korisnu uslugu mreži: verifikovanje i evidentiranje transakcija između ljudi. Nazvaćemo ovo nagradom za potvrđivanje.

Kako se svi slože oko pravila sistema? Ona su kodirana u softverskom protokolu otvorenog koda. To znači da svako može besplatno da preuzme pravila sistema sa interneta i da počne da ih koristi za zaradu valute u sistemu. Ako svi koriste isti skup pravila, njihove knjige će se sinhronizovati, jer će prihvatiti i odbiti potpuno iste transakcije.

• Otvoreni kod = svako može da preuzme kod i da ga pročita
• Softverski protokol = skup pravila napisanih u kodu

Kako zaustaviti ljude koji pokušavaju da prevare sistem da bi zaradili “nagradu za potvrdu”?

Recimo da Boris i Marko žele da se obogate – oni bi mogli jedan drugom da plaćaju po jedan novčić u krug, vodeći računa da neko od njih prvi zabeleži transakciju kako bi mogli da zahtevaju nagradu za potvrdu. Pomoću ove šeme oni bi u osnovi mogli da stvore (odštampaju) novu valutu, kad god oni to požele!

Softverski protokol to zaustavlja zahtevajući da osoba koja validira transakciju uradi neki „posao“ sa računarom kako bi je zabeležila. Ovo osigurava da računari moraju da troše energiju za zabeležavanje transakcija, pa bi u tom slučaju varanje sistema bilo veoma skupo. Borisova i Markova šema varanja sistema više nema finansijskog smisla. Da bismo demonstrirali ovaj proces, pogledajmo Filipa i njegov C-Bot računar. Filip je na svoj računar instalirao Bitcoin protokol, koji predstavlja Bitcoin-ov softverski protokol otvorenog koda koji sadrži pravila Bitcoin sistema.

Kako C-Bot Verifikuje Transakcije

Korak 1: Slušanje transakcija

Prvo, C-Bot sluša transakcije (skraćeno “txn”) koje Ana, Boris, Marko i David emituju putem interneta.

Korak 2: Stvara “Heš”

Drugo, C-Bot će prikupiti sledeće delove podataka:

• Sve Bitcoin transakcije koje ljudi šalju
• Tajni broj (objasnićemo kasnije)
• Nonce – neki slučajan broj

C-Bot sve ovo stavlja u heš mašinu. Mašina za heširanje uzima sve ove podatke i proizvodi 256 bitova (bitovi su 1 i 0) koji se jedinstveno uklapaju u te podatke, nazvane ‘heš’. To heširanje je poput otiska prsta podataka. Uvek ćete dobiti isti heš sa istim ulaznim podacima. Mašina za heširanje je takođe jednosmerna: lako je stvoriti heš od nekih podataka, ali ne možete da stavite heš u mašinu i da vratite ulazne podatke.

C-Bot će iznova isprobavati svoju heš mašinu sa drugim nonce-om (slučajnim brojem). Svaki put, on će proveriti da li je mašina proizvela heš za koji Bitcoin softverski protokol kaže da je tačan.

Ovaj proces pronalaženja heša troši puno vremena i energije. Mašina za heširanje je jednosmerna, tako da C-Bot ne može tek tako da stavi ‘tačan’ heš u mašinu i otkrije ulazne podatke. Svaki računar na Bitcoin mreži takođe prolazi kroz ovaj proces pokušavajući da pronađe ‘ispravan’ heš.

Ukoliko bi ovi računari uspeli da pronađu ‘ispravan’ heš bez velikog trošenja energije, mogli bi da prevare sistem. Dva računara bi mogla da prosleđuju transakcije u krug, zarađujući bitcoin-e svaki put kada bi potvrdili transakciju.

Korak 3: Pronalaženje Ispravnog Heša

C-Bot konačno pronalazi heš koji zadovoljava pravila Bitcoin protokola koristeći sve nedavne transakcije. Sada ovaj blok podataka šalje na druge računare. Blok se sastoji od nedavnih transakcija, nonce-a i tajnog broja. Ti drugi računari stavljaju sve ove podatke kroz istu heš mašinu za sebe, da bi proverili da li je heširanje tog C-Bota tačno. S obzirom da znamo da računari ne mogu da varaju u ovoj igri, znamo da je C-Bot morao da izvrši neka izračunavanja sa svojom heš mašinom da bi pronašao ispravan heš.

Heš bloka C-Bota koji je poslat, sada postaje tajni broj koji ulazi u izračunavanje sledećeg bloka. Budući da heš svakog bloka u ‘blockchain-u’ bitcoin-a koristi heš poslednjeg bloka kao ulaz, bila bi potrebna apsurdna količina energije da se prepiše istorija transakcija (lanac blokova, eng. the blockchain)

Budući da se svačija stanja bitcoin-a zasnivaju na transakcijama na i sa njihovih računa, to takođe onemogućava izmenu bilo čijih stanja bitcoin-a.

Čitav ovaj proces poznat je pod nazivom rudarenje bitcoin-a. Svaki računar na mreži pokušava da proba nove podatke kroz heš mašinu, bilione puta u sekundi.

Šta je blockchain?

Blockchain predstavlja istoriju Bitcoin transakcija, koja omogućava bilo kome da utvrdi svoje Bitcoin stanje.

• ‘Block – Blok’ = Grupa Bitcoin transakcija, nonce-a i heša prethodnog bloka
• ‘Chain – Lanac’ = Heš svakog bloka takođe koristi heš prethodnog bloka kao ulaz. Ovo povezuje podatke svakog bloka sa svakim drugim blokom, stvarajući chain – lanac.

Na blockchain-u, prava imena nisu povezana sa bitcoin-ima. Bitcoin-i su povezani samo sa slučajnim nizom brojeva i slova poznatim kao ‘javni ključ’. Ovo korisnike Bitcoin-a i njihova stanja čini poprilično anonimnima za sve koji vode knjigu.

Kada posedujete bitcoin-e, vi imate password za otključavanje vaših bitcoin bankovnih računa. Ovi računi postoje na hiljadama računara širom sveta koji pokreću Bitcoin protokol.

Kako mogu da saznam više o Bitcoin-u?
