[npub16d8gxt2z4k9e8sdpc0yyqzf5gp0np09ls4lnn630qzxzvwpl0rgq5h4rzv] **Why Signal and Matrix Matter in a World of Mass Surveillance** In an era where mass surveillance has become the norm, privacy-focused communication tools are essential for digital sovereignty. Signal and Matrix provide individuals and communities with encrypted, censorship-resistant messaging solutions that challenge centralized control over information exchange. ### **1. Signal – End-to-End Encryption and Metadata Resistance** - **Proven Cryptographic Security**: Signal’s end-to-end encryption, powered by the Signal Protocol, ensures messages remain private even if intercepted. - **Metadata Protection with Sealed Sender**: Signal minimizes metadata exposure, preventing third parties from knowing who is communicating with whom. - **Simple and Ubiquitous Privacy**: Designed for ease of use, Signal bridges the gap between security and accessibility, making privacy mainstream. ### **2. Matrix – Decentralized and Federated Communication** - **Self-Hosted and Federated Infrastructure**: Unlike centralized services, Matrix allows users to host their own servers, reducing reliance on single points of failure. - **Bridging Across Platforms**: Matrix bridges seamlessly with other communication protocols (IRC, XMPP, Slack, etc.), creating a unified, decentralized network. - **End-to-End Encryption and Decentralized Identity**: Matrix offers fully encrypted rooms and a decentralized identity system, ensuring control over user data. ### **3. Mass Surveillance vs. Private Communication** - **Government and Corporate Data Harvesting**: Centralized platforms like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and Gmail log metadata and conversations, creating massive surveillance databases. - **The Threat of AI-Driven Censorship**: Machine learning algorithms analyze user behavior, making privacy-invasive censorship and social credit scoring systems a reality. - **Decentralization as a Resistance Strategy**: By adopting Signal and Matrix, individuals reclaim their right to private conversations without interference from state or corporate actors. ### **Integration Potential and Future Developments** - **Bitcoin and Encrypted Messaging**: Signal and Matrix can be combined with Bitcoin for private transactions and communication, furthering financial sovereignty. - **P2P and Nostr Integration**: Future developments could see Matrix and Nostr integrated for even more robust censorship-resistant communication. ### **Donations via** - lightninglayerhash@getalby.com

#Algebra is a branch of #Mathematics that uses symbols, known as variables (like x or y), to represent numbers in equations and formulas. It involves operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, but these operations are performed on variables as well as numbers. ### Key Concepts in Algebra - **Variables**: Symbols that stand in for unknown values. - **Constants**: Known values that don’t change. - **Coefficients**: Numbers used to multiply a variable. - **Expressions**: Combinations of variables, numbers, and operations (like 3x + 4). - **Equations**: Statements that assert the equality of two expressions, typically including an equals sign (like 2x + 3 = 7). ### Basic Operations 1. **Adding and Subtracting**: You can add or subtract like terms (terms whose variables and their powers are the same). For example, 2x+3x=5x 2. **Multiplying and Dividing**: You multiply or divide both the coefficients and the variables. For instance, `$$3x \times 2x=6x^2$$` 3. **Solving Equations**: The goal is often to isolate the variable on one side of the equation to find its value. This can involve reversing operations using opposite operations. ### Applications of Algebra Algebra is used in various fields, from #Engineering and computer science to economics and everyday problem solving. It helps in creating formulas to understand relationships between quantities and in solving equations that model real-world situations. ## Algebra and Electronics Algebra plays a crucial role in #Electronics engineering, particularly through its application in circuit analysis, signal processing, and control systems. Understanding and utilizing algebraic techniques can significantly enhance problem-solving capabilities in these areas. ### 1. Complex Numbers In electronic engineering, complex numbers are essential for analyzing AC circuits. They help in representing sinusoidal signals, which are fundamental in communications and power systems. - **Representation**: z=a+bi or z=reiθ (polar form) - **Operations**: Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in complex form, crucial for understanding the behavior of circuits in the frequency domain. **Example**: Calculating the impedance of an RLC series circuit at a certain frequency. - **Circuit Components**: R=50Ω, L=0.1 H, C=10 μF, ω=1000 rad/s `$$ Z = 50 + j1000 \times 0.1 - \frac{1}{j1000 \times 10 \times 10^{-6}} = 50 + j100 - \frac{1}{j0.01} = 50 + j100 + 100j = 50 + 200j $$` ### 2. Matrices and Determinants Matrices are widely used in electronic engineering for handling multiple equations simultaneously, which is common in systems and network analysis. - **Matrix Operations**: Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and inversion. - **Determinant and Inverse**: Used in solving systems of linear equations, critical in network theory and control systems. ### 3. Fourier Transforms Algebraic manipulation is key in applying Fourier transforms, which convert time-domain signals into their frequency components. This is crucial for signal analysis, filtering, and system design. - **Fourier Series**: Represents periodic signals as a sum of sinusoids. - **Fourier Transform**: Converts continuous time-domain signals to continuous frequency spectra. ### 4. Laplace Transforms Laplace transforms are used to simplify the process of analyzing and designing control systems and circuits by converting differential equations into algebraic equations. - **Transfer Functions**: Represent systems in the s-domain, facilitating easier manipulation and understanding of system dynamics. ### 5. Z-Transforms Similar to Laplace transforms, Z-transforms are used for discrete systems prevalent in digital signal processing and digital control. ### 6. Algebraic Equations in Filter Design Algebra is used in the design of filters, both analog and digital, where polynomial equations are used to determine filter coefficients that meet specific frequency response criteria. ### 7. Control Systems The design and stability analysis of control systems involve solving characteristic equations and manipulating transfer functions, which require a solid understanding of algebra. ### 8. Network Theorems Theorems like Kirchhoff's laws, Thevenin’s theorem, and Norton’s theorem involve algebraic equations to simplify and analyze circuits. ## Algebra with Sympy TODO

In a revealing development that exposes the hypocrisy of government surveillance, multiple federal agencies including the CIA and FBI have filed lawsuits to keep Samourai Wallet's client list sealed during and after trial proceedings. This move strongly suggests that government agencies themselves were utilizing Samourai's privacy-focused services while simultaneously condemning similar privacy tools when used by ordinary citizens. The situation bears striking parallels to other cases where government agencies have hidden behind "national security" claims, such as the Jeffrey Epstein case, highlighting a troubling double standard: while average citizens are expected to surrender their financial privacy through extensive reporting requirements and regulations, government agencies claim exemption from these same transparency standards they enforce on others. This case exemplifies the fundamental conflict between individual liberty and state power, where government agencies appear to be using the very privacy tools they prosecute others for using. The irony is particularly stark given that money laundering for intelligence agencies is considered legal in our system, while private citizens seeking financial privacy face severe legal consequences - a clear demonstration of how the state creates different rules for itself versus the people it claims to serve.

*Europa – das Ganze ist eine wunderbare Idee,* *\ aber das war der Kommunismus auch.* *\ Loriot* &#x20; **«Europa hat fertig», könnte man unken,** und das wäre nicht einmal sehr verwegen. Mit solch einer [Einschätzung](https://transition-news.org/geopolitische-ohnmacht-und-die-last-des-euro-steht-die-eu-vor-der-implosion) stünden wir nicht alleine, denn die Stimmen in diese Richtung mehren sich. Der französische Präsident Emmanuel Macron warnte schon letztes Jahr davor, dass «unser Europa sterben könnte». Vermutlich hatte er dabei andere Gefahren im Kopf als jetzt der ungarische Ministerpräsident Viktor Orbán, der ein «baldiges Ende der EU» prognostizierte. Das Ergebnis könnte allerdings das gleiche sein. **Neben vordergründigen Themenbereichen wie Wirtschaft, Energie und Sicherheit** ist das eigentliche Problem jedoch die obskure Mischung aus aufgegebener Souveränität und geschwollener Arroganz, mit der europäische Politiker:innende unterschiedlicher Couleur aufzutreten pflegen. Und das Tüpfelchen auf dem i ist die bröckelnde Legitimation politischer Institutionen dadurch, dass die Stimmen großer Teile der Bevölkerung seit Jahren auf vielfältige Weise ausgegrenzt werden. **Um «UnsereDemokratie» steht es schlecht.** Dass seine Mandate immer schwächer werden, merkt natürlich auch unser «Führungspersonal». Entsprechend werden die Maßnahmen zur Gängelung, Überwachung und Manipulation der Bürger ständig verzweifelter. Parallel dazu [plustern](https://www.bundesregierung.de/breg-de/service/newsletter-und-abos/bundesregierung-aktuell/ausgabe-07-2025-februar-21-2335652?view=renderNewsletterHtml) sich in Paris Macron, Scholz und einige andere noch einmal mächtig in Sachen Verteidigung und [«Kriegstüchtigkeit»](https://transition-news.org/europaische-investitionsbank-tragt-zur-kriegstuchtigkeit-europas-bei) auf. **Momentan gilt es auch, das Überschwappen covidiotischer und verschwörungsideologischer Auswüchse** aus den USA nach Europa zu vermeiden. So ein «MEGA» (Make Europe Great Again) können wir hier nicht gebrauchen. Aus den Vereinigten Staaten kommen nämlich furchtbare Nachrichten. Beispielsweise wurde einer der schärfsten Kritiker der Corona-Maßnahmen kürzlich zum Gesundheitsminister ernannt. Dieser setzt sich jetzt für eine Neubewertung der mRNA-«Impfstoffe» ein, was durchaus zu einem [Entzug der Zulassungen](https://transition-news.org/usa-zulassungsentzug-fur-corona-impfstoffe-auf-der-tagesordnung) führen könnte. **Der europäischen Version von** **[«Verteidigung der Demokratie»](https://transition-news.org/eu-macht-freiwilligen-verhaltenskodex-gegen-desinformation-zu-bindendem-recht)** setzte der US-Vizepräsident J. D. Vance auf der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz sein Verständnis entgegen: «Demokratie stärken, indem wir unseren Bürgern erlauben, ihre Meinung zu sagen». Das Abschalten von Medien, das Annullieren von Wahlen oder das Ausschließen von Menschen vom politischen Prozess schütze gar nichts. Vielmehr sei dies der todsichere Weg, die Demokratie zu zerstören. **In der Schweiz kamen seine Worte deutlich besser an** als in den meisten europäischen NATO-Ländern. Bundespräsidentin Karin Keller-Sutter lobte die Rede und interpretierte sie als «Plädoyer für die direkte Demokratie». Möglicherweise zeichne sich hier eine [außenpolitische Kehrtwende](https://transition-news.org/schweiz-vor-aussenpolitischer-kehrtwende-richtung-integraler-neutralitat) in Richtung integraler Neutralität ab, meint mein Kollege Daniel Funk. Das wären doch endlich mal ein paar gute Nachrichten. **Von der einstigen Idee einer europäischen Union** mit engeren Beziehungen zwischen den Staaten, um Konflikte zu vermeiden und das Wohlergehen der Bürger zu verbessern, sind wir meilenweit abgekommen. Der heutige korrupte Verbund unter technokratischer Leitung ähnelt mehr einem Selbstbedienungsladen mit sehr begrenztem Zugang. Die EU-Wahlen im letzten Sommer haben daran ebenso wenig geändert, wie die [Bundestagswahl](https://transition-news.org/bundestagswahl-mehr-aufrustung-statt-friedenskanzler-nach-der-wahl) am kommenden Sonntag darauf einen Einfluss haben wird. *** Dieser Beitrag ist zuerst auf ***[Transition News](https://transition-news.org/europaer-seid-ihr-noch-zu-retten)*** erschienen.

"Malcolm Forbes recounts that a lady, wearing a faded cotton dress, and her husband, dressed in an old handmade suit, stepped off a train in Boston, USA, and timidly made their way to the office of the president of Harvard University. They had come from Palo Alto, California, and had not scheduled an appointment. The secretary, at a glance, thought that those two, looking like country bumpkins, had no business at Harvard. — We want to speak with the president — the man said in a low voice. — He will be busy all day — the secretary replied curtly. — We will wait. The secretary ignored them for hours, hoping the couple would finally give up and leave. But they stayed there, and the secretary, somewhat frustrated, decided to bother the president, although she hated doing that. — If you speak with them for just a few minutes, maybe they will decide to go away — she said. The president sighed in irritation but agreed. Someone of his importance did not have time to meet people like that, but he hated faded dresses and tattered suits in his office. With a stern face, he went to the couple. — We had a son who studied at Harvard for a year — the woman said. — He loved Harvard and was very happy here, but a year ago he died in an accident, and we would like to erect a monument in his honor somewhere on campus. — My lady — said the president rudely —, we cannot erect a statue for every person who studied at Harvard and died; if we did, this place would look like a cemetery. — Oh, no — the lady quickly replied. — We do not want to erect a statue. We would like to donate a building to Harvard. The president looked at the woman's faded dress and her husband's old suit and exclaimed: — A building! Do you have even the faintest idea of how much a building costs? We have more than seven and a half million dollars' worth of buildings here at Harvard. The lady was silent for a moment, then said to her husband: — If that’s all it costs to found a university, why don’t we have our own? The husband agreed. The couple, Leland Stanford, stood up and left, leaving the president confused. Traveling back to Palo Alto, California, they established there Stanford University, the second-largest in the world, in honor of their son, a former Harvard student."

When talking about the tumbles we experience in our early years, it’s almost impossible not to try to compare the degree of distress that each stumble has provided us. Even if harmless, the first accident that comes to mind is one that, in some way, left its mark. Whether it’s a scraped knee, a gash on the forehead, or a broken arm: having that first conscious encounter with pain is an unforgettable terror. For in one moment, we are sheltered in the loving arms of our parents, feeling invulnerable, and moments later there’s a thick mixture of blood and dirt streaming from a cut that doesn’t seem all that exaggerated to someone looking from the outside — but only to those looking from the outside. However, this is not what makes that first contact with pain so terrifying. It’s the discovery of how lonely we are when facing an individual agony, even under the care of an adult. Ultimately, what follows the shock can vary from the sting of cleaning the wound to the warning slap. After the understanding is digested, and we learn how wounds are made, we become cautious. A slip is met with laughter, and we grow tougher than the ground. That is, until we discover the free fall that holds the world’s problems… “Consciousness, not age, leads to wisdom.” — Publilius Syrus Thank you for reading, my friend!

I've been working on the applesauce libraries for a while now but I think this release is the first one I would consider to be stable enough to use A lot of the core concepts and classes are in place and stable enough where they wont change too much next release If you want to skip straight to the documentation you can find at [hzrd149.github.io/applesauce](https://hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/) or the typescript docs at [hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/typedoc](https://hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/typedoc) ## Whats new ### Accounts The `applesauce-accounts` package is an extension of the `applesauce-signers` package and provides classes for building a multi-account system for clients Its primary features are - Serialize and deserialize accounts so they can be saved in local storage or IndexededDB - Account manager for multiple accounts and switching between them - Account metadata for things like labels, app settings, etc - Support for NIP-46 Nostr connect accounts see [documentation](https://hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/accounts/manager.html) for more examples ### Nostr connect signer The `NostrConnectSigner` class from the `applesauce-signers` package is now in a stable state and has a few new features - Ability to create `nostrconnect://` URIs and waiting for the remote signer to connect - SDK agnostic way of subscribing and publishing to relays For a simple example, here is how to create a signer from a `bunker://` URI ```js const signer = await NostrConnectSigner.fromBunkerURI( "bunker://266815e0c9210dfa324c6cba3573b14bee49da4209a9456f9484e5106cd408a5?relay=wss://relay.nsec.app&secret=d9aa70", { permissions: NostrConnectSigner.buildSigningPermissions([0, 1, 3, 10002]), async onSubOpen(filters, relays, onEvent) { // manually open REQ }, async onSubClose() { // close previouse REQ }, async onPublishEvent(event, relays) { // Pubilsh an event to relays }, }, ); ``` see [documentation](https://hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/signers/nostr-connect.html) for more examples and other signers ### Event Factory The `EventFactory` class is probably what I'm most proud of. its a standalone class that can be used to create various types of events from templates ([blueprints](https://hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/typedoc/modules/applesauce_factory.Blueprints.html)) and is really simple to use For example: ```js import { EventFactory } from "applesauce-factory"; import { NoteBlueprint } from "applesauce-factory/blueprints"; const factory = new EventFactory({ // optionally pass a NIP-07 signer in to use for encryption / decryption signer: window.nostr }); // Create a kind 1 note with a hashtag let draft = await factory.create(NoteBlueprint, "hello world #grownostr"); // Sign the note so it can be published let signed = await window.nostr.signEvent(draft); ``` Its included in the `applesauce-factory` package and can be used with any other nostr SDKs or vanilla javascript It also can be used to modify existing replaceable events ```js let draft = await factory.modifyTags( // kind 10002 event mailboxes, // add outbox relays addOutboxRelay("wss://relay.io/"), addOutboxRelay("wss://nostr.wine/"), // remove inbox relay removeInboxRelay("wss://personal.old-relay.com/") ); ``` see [documentation](https://hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/overview/factory.html) for more examples ### Loaders The `applesauce-loaders` package exports a bunch of loader classes that can be used to load everything from replaceable events (profiles) to timelines and NIP-05 identities They use [rx-nostr](https://penpenpng.github.io/rx-nostr/) under the hood to subscribe to relays, so for the time being they will not work with other nostr SDKs I don't expect many other developers or apps to use them since in my experience every nostr client requires a slightly different way or loading events *They are stable enough to start using but they are not fully tested and they might change slightly in the future* The following is a short list of the loaders and what they can be used for - `ReplaceableLoader` loads any replaceable events (0, 3, 1xxxx, 3xxxx) - `SingleEventLoader` loads single events based on ids - `TimelineLoader` loads a timeline of events from multiple relays based on filters - `TagValueLoader` loads events based on a tag name (like "e") and a value, can be used to load replies, zaps, reactions, etc - `DnsIdentityLoader` loads NIP-05 identities and supports caching - `UserSetsLoader` loads all lists events for users see [documentation](https://hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/overview/loaders.html) for more examples ### Real tests For all new features and a lot of existing ones I'm trying to write tests to ensure I don't leave unexpected bugs for later I'm not going to pretend its 100% tests coverage or that it will ever get close to that point, but these tests cover some of the core classes and help me prove that my code is doing what it says its supposed to do At the moment there are about 230 tests covering 45 files. not much but its a start  ## Apps built using applesauce If you want to see some examples of applesauce being used in a nostr client I've been testing a lot of this code in production on the apps I've built in the last few months - [noStrudel](https://github.com/hzrd149/nostrudel) The main app everything is being built for and tested in - [nsite-manager](https://github.com/hzrd149/nsite-manager) Still a work-in-progress but supports multiple accounts thanks to the `applesauce-accounts` package - [blossomservers.com](https://github.com/hzrd149/blossomservers) A simple (and incomplete) nostr client for listing and reviewing public blossom servers - [libretranslate-dvm](https://github.com/hzrd149/libretranslate-dvm) A libretranslate DVM for nostr:npub1mkvkflncllnvp3adq57klw3wge6k9llqa4r60g42ysp4yyultx6sykjgnu - [cherry-tree](https://github.com/hzrd149/cherry-tree) A chunked blob uploader / downloader. only uses applesauce for boilerplate - [nsite-homepage](https://github.com/hzrd149/nsite-homepage) A simple landing page for [nsite.lol](https://nsite.lol) Thanks to nostr:npub1cesrkrcuelkxyhvupzm48e8hwn4005w0ya5jyvf9kh75mfegqx0q4kt37c for teaching me more about rxjs and consequentially making me re-write a lot of the core observables to be faster

Your father may have warned you when he saw you hanging out with bad company: "Remember, you become your friends." A maxim from Goethe conveys this idea even better: "Tell me who you walk with, and I’ll tell you who you are." Be mindful of who you allow into your life—not as an arrogant snob, but as someone striving to cultivate the best possible life. Ask yourself about the people you know and spend time with: Are they making me better? Do they encourage me to move forward and hold me accountable? Or do they drag me down to their level? Now, with that in mind, ask yourself the most important question: Should I spend more or less time with these people? The second part of Goethe's quote reminds us of what is at stake in this choice: "If I know how you spend your time," he said, "then I know what you may become." "Above all, keep this in mind: never get so attached to your old friends and acquaintances that you are dragged down to their level. If you do not, you will be ruined. [...] You must choose whether you want to be loved by these friends and remain the same or become a better person at the expense of those associations. [...] If you try to do both, you will never make progress nor retain what you once had." —Epictetus, Discourses 📌 "Remember that if you join someone covered in dirt, you can hardly avoid getting a little dirty yourself." —Epictetus, Discourses 📚 (Excerpt from The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday) Thank you for reading, my friend!

With all these decades and - in the case of the oldest democracies - centuries of broken political promises, you’d think that the public would have caught on to the game by now. But no. Still expecting political saviours. Every election cycle, the public hears how this politician will deliver the nation from its economic woes or that politician will restore a country to its former greatness. In 1916, Woodrow Wilson was re-elected as president of the United States on the back of his popular campaign slogan, "_He Kept Us Out of War_". But like all of the presumptive political saviours of the democratic age - in which popularity contests determine who seizes power and the public is swayed by the nicest sounding promises - Wilson, too, promptly broke his word. Just five months after his re-election, he oversaw US entry into the First World War and gave his [now-famous speech]( https://millercenter.org/the-presidency/presidential-speeches/april-2-1917-address-congress-requesting-declaration-war) assuring the public that getting the US into war was necessary to make the world "_safe for democracy_". Similarly, Lyndon B. Johnson won election in 1964 [promising]( https://youtu.be/kdE6VVcH_0g) to limit America’s involvement in Vietnam. "_Some others are eager to enlarge the conflict. They call upon us to supply American boys to do the job that Asian boys should do_". But this, too, was just another [swiftly broken promise]( https://youtu.be/dc9gJvpV8xo) by yet another political "saviour". "_Air action is now in execution against gunboats and certain supporting facilities in North Vietnam_". Laughably, even George W. Bush "won" the election in 2000 [promising a humble American foreign policy]( https://youtu.be/irzSo578gmg) and a vow to only fight short, winnable wars with well-defined objectives. GEORGE W. BUSH: > But I’m gonna be judicious as to how to use the military. It needs to be in our vital interest, the mission needs to be clear and the exit strategy obvious. [And then]( https://youtu.be/5BwxI_l84dc): BUSH: > On my orders, coalition forces have begun [sic] striking selected targets of military importance to undermine Saddam Hussein’s ability to wage war. But this pattern is not just about war and it is not specific to any particular country. Throughout the world, politicians have won elections promising to deliver the inherently undeliverable. What Australian could forget, for example, Bob Hawke’s promise to [eliminate child poverty in three years]( https://youtu.be/2oU_ogI8zBc)? And what Greek could forget when Alexis Tsipras was swept to power with a strong populist mandate to [stand up to the European Union]( https://youtu.be/vE1nr45x5vY) in the midst of the sovereign debt crisis. Instead, Tsipras immediately sold the nation further into debt by [accepting the terms]( https://youtu.be/9saxZvuq8UQ) of a punishing €85bn "bailout" package that even Syriza’s own members called a betrayal of the party’s promises. In 2008, this endlessly escalating wave of political insanity seemed to reach a crescendo as it dashed upon the shores of the presidential campaign of Barack Obama. B. OBAMA: > There’s something happening when people vote not just for party that they belong to but the votes . . . the hopes that they hold in common. [. . .] We are ready to take this country in a fundamentally new direction. That’s what’s happening in America right now. Change is what’s happening in America! It may seem ridiculous in 2021 that the mere words "_Yes We Can_" and "_Hope and Change_" could have sold not just the American voters but the people of the world on Barack Hussein Obama, a junior US senator whose greatest legislative accomplishment up to that point was sponsoring a bill [to rename a post office in Illinois]( https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/109/s3757). But, in hindsight, that was exactly what was so effective about the entire "_hope and change_" campaign. After eight years of neocon carnage - amid the tumult of the ongoing fiasco in Iraq, in the shadow of the rising police state at home, and in the face of the revelations of corporate accounting fraud and banking malfeasance that culminated in a global financial crisis - the public was desperately hoping for change. [OBAMA]( https://youtu.be/Fe751kMBwms): > We will remember that there is something happening in America. That we are not as divided as our politics suggest. That we are one people. We are one nation. And together we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast from sea to shining sea: "Yes We Can!" Thank you, New Hampshire. Thank you! It didn’t matter that Obama, like every other con man to swindle the majority of the population in the great popularity contest we call democracy, lied about every one of his major campaign promises. It didn’t matter that he [lied]( https://youtu.be/O4iWqCH9EVE) about [closing Guantanamo]( https://youtu.be/UQXZoM__vU0). It didn’t matter that he lied about ending the war of terror. [OBAMA]( https://youtu.be/3vpCBpTbEds): > And that is why as president I will make the fight against Al Qaeda and the Taliban the top priority that it should be. [ANNOUNCER]( https://youtu.be/W1o2GlLywRs): > The Obama administration knowingly gave US taxpayer dollars to an al Qaeda affiliate in Sudan, a joint i24 News – Middle East Forum investigation reveals. It didn’t matter that [he lied]( https://youtu.be/B6fnfVJzZT4) about ending the illegal wiretapping of Americans. OBAMA: > This administration also puts forward a false choice between the liberties we cherish and the security we provide. I will provide our intelligence and law enforcement agencies with the tools they need to track and take out the terrorists without undermining our Constitution and our freedom. That means no more illegal wiretapping of American citizens. [And then]( https://youtu.be/m8F99BT8QAA): OBAMA: > I came in with a healthy skepticism about these programs. My team evaluated them. We scrubbed them thoroughly. We actually expanded some of the oversight, increased some of the safeguards. But my assessment and my team’s assessment was that they help us prevent terrorist attacks. None of his broken promises matter, because it was never about any actual, concrete action. If the mass hysteria that swept over the public in 2008 was about achieving tangible results, the Nobel Committee would not have [awarded Obama the Nobel Peace Prize]( https://youtu.be/gscjkfDwv3w) less than one year into his first term in office, while he was still waging wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and expanding Bush’s drone war into Pakistan. No, it was never about action. It was about providing the audience of the political spectacle the scene that they were waiting for. The next political messiah is wheeled onto the stage, he waves his hand and makes everything better, and everyone goes back to their daily struggles for the next four years. The ritual is complete. Indeed, after thousands of years in which heads of state were worshipped as literal gods on earth or, more recently, as divine appointees, it should come as no surprise that popular presidents and prime ministers are almost always portrayed with recourse to religious iconography. The common trope of photographing presidents with the "halo" of the presidential seal around them is nothing new. But even taking that history into account, the religious frenzy that Obama’s appearance on the national political stage caused was, in retrospect, [undeniably strange]( https://youtu.be/1cen37qxA7E). OBAMA: > Who is Barack Obama? Contrary to the rumors that you’ve heard, I was not born in a manger. I was actually born on Krypton and sent here by my father Jor-El to save the planet Earth. In the hysteria of the 2008 campaign, Obama wasn’t received by the public as a political candidate with a series of policy prescriptions for improving the country. He was the god from the machine, the deus ex machina who could appear on stage and bless everyone with his absolution. Obama was not just Superman but the God of All Things, a Heaven-Sent shining New Hope bathed in angelic light who was the literal Second Coming.  [JAMIE FOXX]( https://youtu.be/0O7Zyf7vu2w): > First of all, give an honour to God and our Lord and Savior, Barack Obama!  And by the time the public finally snapped from their reverie and realized that, after all, Obama was [just another politician]( https://youtu.be/V9YWKkgjK7Y)... [CONTESSA BREWER]( https://youtu.be/vuy_-zF02zQ): > The former director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute says he regrets awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to President Barack Obama in 2009. [CENK YOGURT]( https://youtu.be/NrhKogpKVXc): > He lied! It’s not subtle, He said “There will be no spying on citizens who are not suspected of a crime.” He lied. There is spying on all of us and we’re not suspected of a crime. Barack Obama is a liar! Can I make it clearer? Obama had already served his role as the next political saviour and, having served that function, he could be discarded like yesterday’s newspaper. For those who believed that the 2008 campaign was the apotheosis of the Hope and Change routine, this was the end of the line for this political charade. Looking at the process from a rational perspective, one could be forgiven for thinking that the public had learned its lesson and that no politician would be able to bamboozle the public like that again as long as the Obama legacy was in living memory. 👉 But this is not a rational process, and those who believed that could not have been more wrong. Lest there be any confusion that the public was being prepared for another deus ex machina ritual, this time the god descended onto the political stage via a literal machine, a golden escalator. And, from his dais, this god, too, brought good tidings to the cheering crowd: the country is saved once again! [DONALD TRUMP]( https://youtu.be/apjNfkysjbM): > Ladies and gentlemen, I am officially running for President of the United States and we are going to make our country great again! The next day, [it was revealed]( https://x.com/meganspecia/status/610847067427221504?t=-ckxdcRwVDIgP6p5K7b0WQ&s=19) that the scene was a literal stage play. The adoring crowd were not grassroots supporters of Donald Trump who all spontaneously decided to wear the same Trump t-shirts and awkwardly pose with their "homemade" signs for the cameras, but, as an [FEC]( https://www.fec.gov/legal-resources/enforcement/) investigation later confirmed, literal actors [paid $50 each]( https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politics-news/donald-trump-campaign-offered-actors-803161/#) by the [Extra Mile Casting agency]( https://youtu.be/TsFYmy1mvXM) on behalf of their client, Gotham Government Relations & Communications. But it didn’t matter. Like all the iterations of the President Messiah script that came before, Trump’s Make America Great Again psychodrama was already having its intended effect on the population. In some ways, MAGA was a mere repeat of the Obama Hope and Change template. Here, too, candidate Trump promised the moon that President Trump steadfastly failed to deliver. **[He]( https://www.youtube.com/live/g-HCpMsZ6cs) | [did not]( https://youtu.be/yJ6N9EkP5Hk) I [drain]( https://youtu.be/BNGN4Ahk1Ww) I [the]( https://youtu.be/vd3fnEAUuio) I [swamp]( https://youtu.be/6I4pZ_3DVC8).** [He did not end the wars]( https://youtu.be/0CwTXWVulbs). He [did not stand up]( https://youtu.be/YAs1Bm0EJ2w) to [medical-industrial complex]( https://youtu.be/EHy-GWITbxk). And, like the Obamessiah, Trump, too, took on the role of divine redeemer of the nation, [second only to Christ himself]( https://youtu.be/0LZqeGrEEfM). Trump ([Trump assured us]( https://archive.is/QBYAz)) was loved by the Jewish people in Israel like the "second coming of God". And once again the president was being portrayed as "[heaven-sent]( https://x.com/DaveSchreiber3/status/956228048550064130?t=wPuIlQjVvT6b-xoxsl74xA&s=19)", a man chosen by God Himself to [lead America back]( https://www.huffpost.com/entry/rick-perry-donald-trump-the-chosen-one_n_5ddbbb9ee4b0913e6f6fc1a8) to the promised land. RICK PERRY: > And I shared it with him. I said, Mr. President, I know there are people that say you said you were the chosen one and I said, "You were." I said, "If you’re a believing Christian, you understand God’s plan for the people who rule and judge over us on this planet in our government. ED HENRY: > And lest people on the left attack Rick Perry, he pointed out to me he believes Barack Obama was sent by God as well. He said for that moment and that time. He said he thinks for this moment and this time, Donald Trump was sent by God to do great things. Or, as the [internet users]( https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=GEOTUS) who helped build the momentum for the Trump train during the 2016 campaign put it in their popular meme, Trump was the [God Emperor]( https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-warhammer-statue-italy-god-emperor-warrior-twitter-parade-a8787116.html), a [GEOTUS]( https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/god-emperor-trump) who would smite the wicked and own the libs.  Yes, the Trump script seemed to be a mere rehash of the Obama script. But it was not. You see, this was not the same plot as Hope and Change. Make America Great Again had a more exciting storyline. In the MAGA stage play, the god from the machine was himself in trouble and needed saving from the powerful, evil forces that were ganging up against him. And this time, the god himself would be saved by his own god from a machine. This script involved an incredible double deus ex machina! The god that would save God Emperor Trump, however, was not a political figure at all, but a shadowy, anonymous entity. And the machine that delivered him was not a golden escalator, but an online message board. The "[Q Anon]( https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/146981635/#q147012719)" phenomenon began on October 28, 2017, when "Q" - a user of the "politically incorrect" board of 4chan, the anonymous imageboard website - made a post claiming that a massive military operation was underway to arrest Hillary Clinton and bring down the cabal of evil politicians that was filling the swamp of Washington. Within days, the anonymous poster was assuring his 4chan followers of the imminent indictment of Clinton campaign insiders [John Podesta and Huma Abedin]( https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/147433975/#147434025). And on November 2nd, less than a week after the initial post, the poster was calling himself "[Q Clearance Patriot]( https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/147547939/#q147567888)" and claiming that "_over the course of the next several days you will undoubtedly realize that we are taking back our great country_". In every way, these early "Q Drops" exemplify the QAnon phenomenon that it spawned. They pick up on the language and code words of classified government operations, like "[Mockingbird]( https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/146981635/#q147023341)" and "[Q clearance]( https://www.americaexplained.org/what-is-a-q-clearance.htm)". They pretend to impart insider information about high-level political events, even predicting specific events on specific dates, like the arrest announcement of Podesta and the beginning of a military coup. And they pose a series of vague rhetorical questions ("_Why does Potus surround himself w/ generals? What is military intelligence? Why go around the 3 letter agencies?_") that feel important without providing any specific knowledge or insight. As Q’s notoriety grew, so, too, did the grandiosity of his predictions, promises and pronouncements. Followers were told to expect "[False flag(s)" and that there would be "fireworks]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729161138/https://qposts.online/?q=326&s=postnum)" but that the president would be "100% insulated". They were exhorted to "[TRUST [Attorney General Jeff] SESSIONS]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210110180638/https://qposts.online/post/372)" and assured that Feb. 1, 2018, would be the "[[D]ay [Of] [D]ays]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729143636/https://qposts.online/?q=647&s=postnum)". They were promised a "[parade that will never be forgotten]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729152807/https://qposts.online/?q=856&s=postnum)" on November 11th of 2018. They were assured that [Mark Zuckerberg was stepping down]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729152222/https://qposts.online/?q=1014&s=postnum) as chairman of Facebook. July 2018 would be the month "the world discovered the TRUTH", with Q asserting that there would be "[conspiracy no more]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729144945/https://qposts.online/?q=1595&s=postnum)". Of course, every one of these pronouncements was categorically wrong. But, as Q taught his followers to believe, "[Disinformation is real]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729155150/https://qposts.online/?q=128&s=postnum)" and "Disinformation is necessary", so these false predictions were in fact signs that Q was telling the truth. It didn’t make sense. It didn’t have to. All it had to do was fill the viewers of the unfolding political spectacle with hopium, the belief that this new god from the machine was going to swoop in with his Q Clearance compatriots and save the day at the last moment. Remarkably, that belief persisted even after the last moment. 🔸[Q Anon Posts Debate & Discussion With Praying Medic]( https://youtu.be/e1UHvPb-qGo) [Rare Interview & Question] 🔸[ACTUAL INTERVEIW [sic] Dr Steve Pieczenik DHS watermarked every ballot with QFS Blockchain Encryption]( https://youtu.be/u6Ek5SYiDyI) 🔸[HELLSCAPE: 72 HOURS TO SAVE THE REPUBLIC]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210118181000/https://www.sgtreport.com/2021/01/hellscape-72-hours-to-save-the-republic/) 🔸[EP. 2501B – TRAP SET, THESE PEOPLE ARE STUPID, DO YOU SEE THE STORM FORMING,PANIC IN DC]( https://www.bitchute.com/video/IgFZXglCXszN/) It is not hard to see why Q became so popular. Like every good deus ex machina, Q promised to deliver the audience of the current political drama exactly what they wanted: an entertaining, exciting and satisfying resolution to the play, delivering the hero (Trump) from evil (the Democrats) just in the nick of time. It is not coincidence that "Enjoy the show" and "Get the popcorn" became favourite phrases of Q and the QAnon followers. This was, after all, just that: [a show]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729162026/https://qposts.online/?q=enjoy+the+show&s=keyword). A scripted drama [designed to play]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210422153402/https://qposts.online/post/16) on the psyche of the audience. The clue comes in Q’s constant exhortations for his follower to trust. 🔸[Trust Sessions]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729145545/https://qposts.online/?q=1122&s=postnum). 🔸[Trust Grassley]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729142811/https://qposts.online/post/2274). 🔸[Trust POTUS]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729142306/https://qposts.online/post/1145). 🔸 [Trust the plan]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210302060441/https://qposts.online/?q=trust+the+plan&s=keyword). The terminology - as well as the methodology - of the Q operation evokes Operation Trust, a Soviet counterintelligence program in the 1920s that took over a pro-monarchist organization, the "Monarchist Union of Central Russia". The Soviets used operatives within the organization to persuade members that they should not engage in militant activity against the government because a plan was underway for internal anti-Bolshevik forces to topple the regime. Trust the plan. In this case, "trusting the plan" got members of the opposition either put on trial and sent to the gulags or blackmailed into working for [Soviet intelligence]( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Trust). Q certainly did pacify many with his constant entreaty to "trust the plan". Q also rallied people [time and time again]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729152718/https://qposts.online/post/3347) to support the policies, operations and personnel of the very deep state that they were supposedly fighting against. Suddenly Jeff Sessions, Bill Barr, [John Bolton]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729163448/https://qposts.online/post/1123) and other long-time members of the political establishment were the good guys in this elaborate drama. [99% of the agents at the CIA]( https://web.archive.org/web/20210729141311/https://qposts.online/post/4166), FBI, DOJ and NSA were "patriots" who "serve[d] with distinction" and thus needed to be supported. The decades-long neocon dream of [invading Iran]( https://web.archive.org/web/20211027213014/https://qposts.online/post/1558) became, in the eyes of Q followers, a good and noble cause. But even beyond the pacification of those who would otherwise be resisting the government, the "Q Army" of self-styled "Digital soldiers" provided the very foil that the deep state needed to move to the next step of their counter-insurgency program: The crackdown on "domestic terrorism".  🔸[FBI Warns Of Potential For More Violence From QAnon Followers]( https://youtu.be/ELntKgrMAzs) 🔸[FBI warns conspiracy theories fuel domestic terrorism]( https://youtu.be/mPaNlpTb-rM) 🔸[Former CIA official Jeremy Bash, now of NBC News]( https://youtu.be/n8TraXoSBJk) 🔸[A Message from President Donald J. Trump]( https://youtu.be/nCxGBU3KpHI) After years of being told to "get the popcorn" and "enjoy the show", the Q Anon movement slowly began to realize that they were had. Worse, the very intelligence agencies and military that they had so fervently hoped would swoop in and save the day are the very agencies that were swooping in to round them up. But QAnon was by no means the first time that hopium has been injected into the veins of the "conspiracy research community". In the 1990s, a power industry teaching consultant named Harvey Francis Barnard developed a proposed set of reforms for America’s monetary and tax system that he called the National Economic Security and Recovery Act, or NESARA. He self-published a book outlining his proposal, sent copies to members of Congress, started an institute to promote the idea and, in 2000, published his proposal on the internet. At that point, [NESARA]( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NESARA) became the centerpiece of an elaborate hoax promulgated by an online charlatan calling herself "The Dove of Oneness". In this story, the NESARA bill is a miracle: it abolishes income taxes, forgives mortgages, zeroes out credit cards and declares peace. Even more miraculous: in a stunning move only known to The Dove of Oneness, the bill had been secretly passed by Congress and was due to take effect on September 11, 2001, which is why the World Trade Center was destroyed. But, like every good drama, this story, too, had a deus ex machina to keep [Dove’s internet audience]( https://www.thenewstribune.com/news/special-reports/article25855081.html) hanging on and enjoying the show: [the White Knights]( https://web.archive.org/web/20200806211343/https://freedomforceinternational.org/position-statements/white-knights/#knights), "_an underground group of good guys [. . .] who were in high positions within all these institutions, who were fed up with the status quo and were planning a coup d’état that was going to happen ‘very soon.'_" Just as with Q, the cult that grew around the NESARA myth with its White Knight gods from the machine promised specific events on specific dates. Every time a prediction failed to happen, followers were reassured that the long-promised coup had been delayed so that the White Knights could better prepare the public for the pandemonium that would ensue when they swoop in to save the day. In the meantime, followers could get the popcorn and enjoy the show, knowing that all their debt would soon be forgiven and that peace on earth was just around the corner. And the name of that book in which Barnard first laid out his NESARA proposal? 👉 [Draining The Swamp]( https://archive.org/details/pdfy-26rkhN1b_IernzD2). Yes, the deus ex machina story is trotted out every few years under different guises. A secret order of ninjas is preparing to assassinate the evil Illuminati and bring peace to the world. A secret stash of trillions of dollars is about to be shared out with the people of the world, ending all poverty. A cosmic realignment is going to take place on December 21st, 2012, raising humanity to a higher level of consciousness and ending all strife and suffering. An anonymous 4chan poster is leaking classified information about a good military coup that’s going to restore order and drain the swamp. [The incredible Trump's X-Men]( https://youtu.be/YTJZhsGmWi8). The message is always the same: Get the popcorn and enjoy the show. The god is coming from the machine to save you. Just wait. Over and over we see the same story play out. The crowd begins to lose interest in the political stage play. They begin to suspect that it’s fake. That reality is taking place somewhere off stage and out of sight. They begin to realize that they are not spectators at all, but active participants with the ability to shape the world around them. And then along comes a god from a machine peddling hopium and the audience goes back to enjoying the show. None of this is to denigrate the religious instinct that compels humans to look for a saviour from the heavens. On the contrary. Those with religious faith should be the most offended by this god from the machine script that sees their most cherished, divine beliefs cynically played on by would-be political rulers masquerading as gods. Now, we must not abandon hope itself. As part of the triumvirate of faith, hope and charity, hope is a virtue to be cherished. Genuine hope is the rocket fuel that humans use to propel themselves towards their goals. Without hope, there would be no motivation to do anything to improve our situation. But that is the difference. Hope compels us to go out there and try to improve our situation. Fake hopes, on the other hand, convinces us that someone else has taken care of the problem. That we can just sit back, get the popcorn and enjoy the show. Like the dope peddler on the street corner, the politicians and hucksters are always ready to satisfy their mark with a dose of false hopes. And the public, more often than not, is only too happy to take it. But fake hope is a deadly drug, and the god from the machine is nothing but a cheap stage trick. Nothing will change until we stop enjoying the show and realize that we are not spectators watching history unfold from the sidelines. We are history’s actors, and, propelled by genuine hope, we can and will change the world.

Hiking in nature is more than just a leisurely activity—it’s a powerful way to boost physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life. Whether you’re trekking through lush forests, climbing rugged mountains, or strolling along a peaceful riverbank (which we really love doing), the benefits of hiking are undeniable. Here are some points to think about along these lines. #### **Physical Health Benefits** - Strengthens muscles and improves cardiovascular health - Enhances balance, coordination, and endurance - Supports bone density and joint health - Burns calories and aids in weight management #### **Mental and Emotional Well-Being** - Reduces stress, anxiety, and depression - Increases endorphin levels, boosting mood and relaxation - Improves focus, creativity, and cognitive function - Encourages mindfulness and mental clarity #### **Connection with Nature** - Provides an escape from screens and digital distractions - Encourages appreciation for the environment and wildlife - Helps regulate sleep cycles by syncing with natural light - Instills a sense of peace and awe #### **Social and Personal Growth** - Strengthens relationships when hiking with friends or family - Encourages teamwork and problem-solving on group hikes - Builds confidence and resilience for solo hikers - Creates lasting memories and a sense of accomplishment ### **A Typical Day on the Trail** A day of hiking often starts with an early morning wake-up, packing essentials like water, snacks, and a map (if you're old-fashioned like me, LOL). After reaching the trailhead, the journey begins with fresh air, birds singing, and the crunch of dirt underfoot. You might stop to admire a stunning viewpoint, take photos of wildflowers, or rest beside a babbling stream. Lunch could be a simple picnic with a breathtaking backdrop. As the afternoon sun filters through the trees, you finish the hike feeling refreshed, accomplished, and ready to do it all again. We love to go hiking, and I'm no expert, but when I take the time to get us out there somewhere and the weather is wonderful, it just adds up to an amazing day! Whether you're a beginner or an experienced hiker, exploring nature on foot provides countless benefits for both body and mind. It’s an accessible, enjoyable, and fulfilling way to stay healthy while reconnecting with the natural world. So, lace up your hiking boots, hit the trails, and experience the transformative power of hiking in nature!

Here are three key systems enabling decentralized blob storage: 1. **Blossom Server** [Blossom Server](https://github.com/hzrd149/blossom-server?tab=readme-ov-file) provides a decentralized platform for storing and sharing large blobs of data. Blossom Server allows users to host their own data and retrieve it from a decentralized network, ensuring that data is not stored in centralized servers. This platform is open-source, offering flexibility and security through peer-to-peer data storage. 2. **Perkeep** [Perkeep](https://perkeep.org/) (formerly known as Camlistore) is a decentralized data storage system that allows for storing blobs of data in a distributed manner. It focuses on the long-term storage of large data sets, such as personal collections of photos, videos, and documents. By using Perkeep, users can ensure that their data remains private and is not controlled by any central authority. The system uses a unique identifier to access data, promoting both privacy and integrity. 3. **IPFS (InterPlanetary File System)** [IPFS](https://ipfs.io/) is another popular decentralized file storage system that uses the concept of blobs to store and share data. IPFS allows users to store and access data in a decentralized manner by using a peer-to-peer network. Each piece of data is given a unique hash, ensuring that it is verifiable and tamper-proof. By leveraging IPFS, users can store everything from simple files to large applications, all without relying on centralized servers. By using these decentralized data storage solutions, individuals and organizations can safeguard their information, increase privacy, and contribute to a more resilient and distributed internet infrastructure. **Higher-Level Goals for Blob Storage** Blob storage via Blossom ,Perkeep and IPFS has goals to become a decentralized, self-sufficient protocol for data storage, management, and sharing. While some of these features are already being implemented, they represent a broader vision for the future of decentralized personal data management. 1. **Filesystem Backups** Allows for easy, incremental backups. Using the **`pk-put`** tool, users can back up files and directories quickly and efficiently. Incremental backups, which save only the changes made since the last backup, are essentially free, making Perkeep an efficient choice for backup solutions. This initial use case has already been implemented, providing seamless and secure backups for personal data. 2. **Efficient Remote Filesystem** The goal is to create a highly efficient, aggressively caching remote filesystem using Perkeep. A **read-only** version of this filesystem is already trivial to implement, while **read-write** functionality remains an area of active development. Every modification in the filesystem would be snapshotted implicitly, providing version control as a default. This would enable users to interact with their data in a remote environment while ensuring that every change is tracked and recoverable. 3. **Decentralized Sharing System** Perkeep is working towards enabling users to share data in a decentralized manner. The system will allow individuals to share anything with anyone or everyone, with privacy being the default setting. This decentralized sharing is already starting to work, and users can now share data with others while retaining control over who sees their information. 4. **Blog / Photo Hosting / Document Management CMS** Perkeep aims to replace traditional blog platforms, photo hosting services, and document management software. By running a **personal blog**, **photo gallery**, and **document management system (CMS)** on Perkeep, users will have full control over their content. Permissions will be configurable, allowing for personal or public sharing. The author intends to use Perkeep for his own blog, gallery, and document management needs, further demonstrating its versatility. 5. **Decentralized Social Networking** While still a lofty goal, decentralized social networking is a persistent aim for Perkeep. By implementing features like **comments** and **tagging**, users could attach metadata to images and content. Through claims, users could sign data and verify identities, promoting trust in social interactions. This would allow for decentralized social networking where users control their own data and interactions. 6. **Import/Export Adapters for Hosted Web Services** Perkeep intends to bridge the gap between decentralized storage and traditional hosted web services. This feature would allow users to **mirror data** between hosted services and their private Perkeep storage. Whether content is created in Perkeep or hosted services, the goal is to ensure that data is always backed up privately, ensuring users' data is theirs forever. ### Combined Goals for Blossom and IPFS Both Blossom and IPFS share common goals of decentralizing data storage, enhancing privacy, and providing users with greater control over their data. Together, these technologies enable: - **Self-Sovereign Data Management**: Empowering users to store and manage their data without relying on centralized platforms. - **Resilient and Redundant Storage**: Offering decentralized and redundant data storage that ensures availability and security. - **Private and Permissioned Sharing**: Enabling secure, private data sharing where the user controls who has access to their content. By focusing on these goals, both Blossom and IPFS are contributing to a future where individuals control their own data, collaborate more efficiently in decentralized networks and P4P protocols, and ensure the privacy and security of their digital assets. These technologies in conjunction with nostr lead one to discover user agency and autonomy, where you can actually own and interface with your own data allowing for value creation and content creation strategies.

Most of us take for granted our modern living environment. Most of us live in cities, concrete jungles: where the sounds of cars, sirens, pedestrian chatter, etc., create a great cacophony of modern cosmopolitan life. We take these advancements as obvious necessities for the improvement of our lives. Without cars, phones, electricity, and commerce, we wouldn’t have the luxurious and comfortable lives that many enjoy. Of course, there is truth to this. However, rarely do we take into consideration the effect our environment has on our health. A fascinating body of research is emerging that illustrates the profound impact our external environment has on our mental and physical well-being. One of the first major papers to observe the health benefits of nature was Ulrich and others from 1984 (Ulrich, 1984). The study followed patients who had undergone cholecystectomy surgery and were hospitalized during their recovery. All patients had rooms with windows. Some patients had views of a brown brick wall, and some patients had views of deciduous trees. Many would expect that the views the patients had out of their window wouldn’t have a great affect on their recovery, however this was surprisingly not the case.  Those who had a view of the trees had shorter recovery times, less negative comments about their nurses, took fewer pain medications, and had less post-surgical complications. They were happier, in less pain, and seemingly healed faster! Today, scientists still do not have a clear understanding of why this occurs. However, since the time of the Ulrich study, and others like it, there has been some effort to unravel this mystery. One popular theory is known as the Attention Restoration Theory (Kaplan, 1995). Here, the benefits of nature are thought to derive from its benefits towards our minds and mental fatigue. The theory states that there are two different forms of attention: involuntary (or fascination driven) attention, and direct attention. Fascination requires no effort, and it happens involuntarily. Directed attention is cognitively controlled and does require effort. The act of fascination is said to allow for the directed attention networks of the brain to rest and restore, so they may function more properly when needed. Essentially, the idea is that given our modern stressful life, we experience cognitive fatigue due to all the directed attention we give. Becoming fascinated with a view of nature, provides an effortless attention that generates a restorative effect on our mind. There has been evidence to suggest this is true, as walks in nature have been shown to improve cognitive functioning (Berman et al., 2008). Interestingly, peaceful environments did not provide the same benefits as walks in greenery did (Berman et al., 2008). Suggesting that the cognitive restoration is inherent in the view of nature itself.  Additionally, this theory would suggest that natural scenery would also reduce stress, as stress is highly related to the activity of the mind. On this note, research has shown that viewing forest landscapes lowers physiologic indicators of stress such as lower cortisol levels, pulse rate, and blood pressure (“Ming” Kuo, 2013; Park et al., 2010). Other studies have focused on health outcomes related to the greenery of an individual’s neighborhood. For example, a 2008 study in England observed pre-retirement individuals and distinguished them by their income levels and the exposure to greenery given their living situation (Mitchell & Popham, 2008). The researchers found that risk of general mortality and death from circulatory disease was greater in those who lived in less green areas. This was also not the only study to observe greater heath in vegetative neighborhoods. Another study found that those who lived in neighborhoods with more vegetation had less occurrences of depressive symptoms (Cox et al., 2017). This observation is likely caused by the mental benefits of viewing nature as described above. Additionally, those who live in more barren buildings have higher instances of mental fatigue (Kuo, 2015). Further reinforcing the idea that nature provides significant mental health benefits. However, this does not fully explain how other physical health benefits are observed, such as those observed in the study in England. Another reason a more nature filled environment is beneficial to human health is its effect on lifestyle habits and norms. Multiple studies have shown that people are more likely to participate in physical exercise when living in neighborhoods with more greenery (Cox et al., 2017; Irvine et al., 2013). Additionally, a study in Japan had some college students exercise both in urban environments and in nature, showed that those who exercised in nature had less salivary amylase release and therefore less sympathetic activity (Yamaguchi et al., 2006). Suggesting that not only is exercise more sought after in more nature-heavy environments, but the exercise itself is more heath promoting. Interestingly, social cohesion has also been shown to be improve in neighborhoods with more vegetation (Cox et al., 2017). All these factors are likely contributors to the greater health benefits provided by a more vegetative environment. The original home of homo-sapiens, us, was in a rich vegetative landscape. It is where we evolved and adapted to survive. For this reason, it is unsurprising that this environment provides stimuli that generate greater balance within our body. Until very recently in human history, most of us still lived with great intimacy to nature. It has only been within recent history where human technological innovation has launched many of us out of our natural environment, and into our new concrete jungles. This change was abrupt and performed with little hesitancy given the great advancement of luxury and quality of life. If research continues to support this proposition that vegetative environments are important for maintaining mental and physical health, then we all have an important question to consider: given our technological advancements that are sure to continue, how do we re-integrate nature back into our living habitats? How can we benefit from our technology, without sacrificing core aspects of our health in the process? How do we find balance in this quickly advancing society? These are questions worth pondering, and it may be our responsibility to do so. For the sake of the future, we cannot forget our past and where we came from.   References: Berman, M.

In 2021, El Salvador embarked on an unprecedented financial experiment under President Nayib Bukele's leadership by adopting Bitcoin as legal tender. This decision was not only groundbreaking but also positioned the small Central American nation as a pioneer in the global financial landscape. The move was seen as a step towards modernizing the country's financial system and making it more inclusive and forward-thinking. It was a daring venture into uncharted territory, signaling El Salvador's willingness to embrace technological innovation and challenge traditional economic models. The decision was met with a mix of admiration and skepticism globally, as it represented a significant departure from conventional monetary policy and raised questions about the future of digital currencies in mainstream finance. **Table of Contents** - The Genesis of the Bitcoin Law - Implementation and Challenges - Economic Impacts and International Response - Bukele's Vision and Controversies - The Future of Bitcoin in El Salvador - Conclusion - FAQs **The Genesis of the Bitcoin Law** The journey to adopting Bitcoin as legal tender was marked by the introduction of the Bitcoin Law, a bold legislative move by President Bukele's administration. This law required all businesses to accept Bitcoin in addition to the US dollar, which had been El Salvador's official currency for two decades. The law aimed to democratize financial access, especially for the 70% of Salvadorans who did not have bank accounts and relied heavily on cash transactions. It also sought to reduce remittance costs for millions of Salvadorans living abroad, who annually send billions of dollars back home. The Bitcoin Law was a part of Bukele's broader strategy to reposition El Salvador as a hub for technological innovation and economic growth. However, the law also raised significant questions about the feasibility and stability of using a highly volatile digital currency in everyday transactions. **Implementation and Challenges** Implementing the Bitcoin Law was a complex endeavor. The government's launch of the “Chivo” digital wallet was intended to facilitate Bitcoin transactions and offer a $30 Bitcoin incentive to users. However, the rollout faced technical glitches and public mistrust in cryptocurrency. Many Salvadorans were unfamiliar with Bitcoin, leading to a steep learning curve and reluctance to transition from traditional cash transactions. Additionally, the fluctuating value of Bitcoin posed a risk to users, particularly those living in poverty or on fixed incomes. The government's efforts to promote Bitcoin adoption also faced international scrutiny, with financial experts questioning the impact on El Salvador's financial stability and its relationship with global financial institutions. **Economic Impacts and International Response** The economic impact of Bitcoin's adoption in El Salvador has been a subject of intense debate. On one hand, it has attracted significant attention from the global cryptocurrency community, positioning the country as a potential hub for digital finance. On the other hand, the move has been met with caution and criticism from international financial institutions. The International Monetary Fund (IMF), for instance, expressed concern over the potential risks associated with Bitcoin's volatility and its implications for financial stability, governance, and consumer protection. The fluctuating value of Bitcoin also posed a challenge for the national budget and financial planning. Despite these concerns, the Bukele administration remained committed to its digital currency strategy, viewing it as a long-term investment in the country's economic future. **Bukele's Vision and Controversies** President Nayib Bukele, a charismatic and controversial leader, has been at the center of El Salvador's Bitcoin experiment. His administration's aggressive push for Bitcoin adoption was part of a broader vision to transform El Salvador into a modern, technologically advanced economy. Bukele's plans included the development of a “Bitcoin City,” funded by Bitcoin-backed bonds, which was envisioned as a tax-free haven for cryptocurrency investors. However, these ambitious projects have not been without controversy. Critics have raised concerns about the lack of transparency in the government's Bitcoin transactions and the potential for financial mismanagement. Bukele's autocratic tendencies, including his clashes with the judiciary and the press, have also raised alarms about the democratic governance of these initiatives. **The Future of Bitcoin in El Salvador** As El Salvador continues its journey with Bitcoin, the future of this initiative remains a topic of global interest and speculation. The country is navigating uncharted waters, and its experience will likely serve as a case study for other nations contemplating similar moves. The success of Bitcoin in El Salvador depends on various factors, including technological infrastructure, public education, and global market dynamics. The government's ability to manage the currency's volatility and integrate it into the broader economy will be crucial. Additionally, the impact of this initiative on financial inclusion, remittances, and economic growth will be closely watched. El Salvador's experiment with Bitcoin could pave the way for a new era of digital currency adoption, but it also faces significant challenges that could shape its outcome. **Conclusion** El Salvador's adoption of Bitcoin as legal tender under President Bukele's leadership marks a significant moment in the history of digital currency. This bold move has positioned the country as a trailblazer in the cryptocurrency world, but the long-term outcomes of this bold experiment remain uncertain. As El Salvador navigates the challenges and opportunities presented by this initiative, its journey will undoubtedly offer crucial insights into the future intersection of technology, finance, and governance. The world is watching as El Salvador tests the limits of cryptocurrency integration, and its experiences will likely influence global financial policies and the adoption of digital currencies in the years to come. Whether El Salvador's gamble on Bitcoin will pay off or serve as a cautionary tale remains to be seen, but its impact on the global financial landscape is undeniable. **FAQs** **What is the Bitcoin Law in El Salvador?** The Bitcoin Law in El Salvador is a legislation that made Bitcoin a legal tender alongside the US dollar. It mandates all businesses to accept Bitcoin for transactions and was introduced to promote financial inclusion and modernize the economy. **Why did El Salvador adopt Bitcoin as legal tender?** El Salvador adopted Bitcoin to increase financial accessibility for its unbanked population, reduce remittance costs, and position itself as a leader in digital currency innovation. **How does the Chivo wallet work?** The Chivo wallet is a government-backed digital wallet that facilitates Bitcoin transactions in El Salvador.

**Overall Assessment:** Bitcoin (BTCUSDT) on OKX remains highly volatile and the overall trend is uncertain. While the long-term trend (Daily chart) is technically still an uptrend, it has *weakened significantly*. The 4-hour and 15-minute charts are in confirmed downtrends. This analysis focuses on identifying key levels where Smart Money might be active and assessing trend strength. **Detailed Analysis by Timeframe:** **(1) TF Day (Daily):** [https://www.tradingview.com/x/o9YgoBlr/](https://www.tradingview.com/x/o9YgoBlr/) * **Trend:** Uptrend (Significantly Weakening, *at high risk of reversing*). * **SMC (Smart Money Concepts):** * Higher Highs (HH) and Higher Lows (HL) structure is *becoming less defined and broken*. The recent price action has broken previous lows. * Prior Breaks of Structure (BOS) to the upside, but now a significant and deep pullback is underway. * **Liquidity:** * **Sellside Liquidity (SSL):** Significant SSL rests below previous lows in the 85,000 - 90,000 range. This is a likely target for Smart Money. * **Buyside Liquidity (BSL):** BSL is present above the all-time high. * **ICT (Inner Circle Trader Concepts):** * **Order Block:** The price has *broken below* the prior bullish Order Block (the large green candle before a significant up-move). This is a *major bearish signal*. * **EMA (Exponential Moving Average):** * Price has *broken below* the 50-period EMA (yellow), a bearish signal. * The 200-period EMA (white) is the next major support level. * **Money Flow (LuxAlgo):** * A *long red bar* indicates strong selling pressure. * **Trend Strength (AlgoAlpha):** * Red Cloud indicating Downtrend, *No Buy/Sell Signal*. * **Volume Profile:** Relatively low volume on the recent decline. * **Candlesticks:** The most recent candlestick is red, confirming selling pressure. * **Support:** EMA 200, 85,000-90,000 (SSL area). * **Resistance:** EMA 50, Previous All-Time High. * **Summary:** The Daily chart's uptrend is significantly weakening. The break below the 50 EMA *and* the bullish Order Block, combined with the negative Money Flow and bearish Trend Strength, are all major warning signs. The SSL below is a key area to watch. **(2) TF4H (4-Hour):** [https://www.tradingview.com/x/0sGC0Gny/](https://www.tradingview.com/x/0sGC0Gny/) * **Trend:** Downtrend. * **SMC:** * Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL). * BOS to the downside. * **Liquidity:** * **SSL:** Below previous lows. * **BSL:** Above previous highs. * **ICT:** * **Order Block:** The price was rejected by a bearish order Block * **EMA:** * Price is below both the 50-period and 200-period EMAs (bearish). * **Money Flow (LuxAlgo):** * Predominantly red, confirming selling pressure. * **Trend Strength (AlgoAlpha):** * Green Cloud *But No Buy/Sell Signal.* Indicates Sideway * **Volume Profile:** * Relatively high volume. * **Support:** Recent lows. * **Resistance:** EMA 50, EMA 200, Order Block. * **Summary:** The 4-hour chart is in a confirmed downtrend. The Money Flow is bearish, price below both EMAs. **(3) TF15 (15-Minute):** [https://www.tradingview.com/x/c7kIbqU0/](https://www.tradingview.com/x/c7kIbqU0/) * **Trend:** Downtrend (but showing *some* signs of consolidation/sideways movement). * **SMC:** * Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL) - but with *slightly* higher lows recently. * BOS to the downside. * **ICT:** * **Order Block** Price could not break up the bearish Order Block. * **EMA:** * The 50-period and 200-period EMAs are acting as resistance. * **Money Flow (LuxAlgo):** * Alternating red and green, predominantly red. * **Trend Strength (AlgoAlpha):** * Red Cloud (Bearish), *BUT* there's a *bullish divergence* (price made a lower low, but the Trend Strength indicator made a higher low). This is a *potential* early warning sign, but needs *strong confirmation*. * **Volume Profile:** * Relatively high Volume * **Support:** Recent lows. * **Resistance:** EMA 50, EMA 200, Order Block. * **Summary:** The 15-minute chart is in a downtrend, although with *very tentative* signs of stabilization. The bullish divergence on the Trend Strength is noteworthy, but *not* a buy signal on its own. **Overall Strategy and Recommendations (BTCUSDT):** * **Primary Trend (Day):** Uptrend (Significantly Weakening). * **Secondary Trend (4H):** Downtrend. * **Short-Term Trend (15m):** Downtrend (Potential Early Reversal Signals). * **Liquidity:** Significant SSL zones exist below the current price on all timeframes. * **Money Flow:** Negative on all timeframes. * **Trend Strength:** Bearish on Day and 15m. Sideway on 4H. * **Strategies:** 1. **Wait & See (Best Option):** The conflicting signals and the strong bearish momentum on the shorter timeframes, combined with the weakening Daily chart, make waiting the most prudent approach. Look for: * **Bearish Confirmation:** A decisive break below the recent lows on the 15m and 4H charts, with increasing volume and continued negative Money Flow. This would confirm the continuation of the downtrend. * **Bullish Confirmation:** A strong, sustained break above the 15m EMAs, a shift in the 15m Money Flow to green, *and* a bullish signal on the 4H Trend Strength, *and* price holding above EMAs and ideally reclaiming the Daily Order Block. 2. **Short (High Risk):** This aligns with the 4H and 15m downtrends. * **Entry:** On rallies towards resistance levels (EMAs on 15m/4H, previous support levels that have turned into resistance). * **Stop Loss:** Above recent highs on the chosen timeframe. * **Target:** The next support levels (recent lows on 15m, then potentially the SSL zones on the 4H and Daily charts). 3. **Buy (Extremely High Risk - Not Recommended):** Do *not* attempt to buy until there are *very strong and consistent* bullish reversal signals across *all* timeframes, including a definitive shift in market structure on the 4H and 15m charts, positive Money Flow, and a clear break above resistance levels. The bullish divergence on the 15m Trend Strength is *not* sufficient on its own. **Key Recommendations:** * **Conflicting Timeframes:** The primary conflict is now resolved toward the downside. The Daily is weakening significantly. * **Money Flow:** Consistently negative, a major bearish factor. * **Trend Strength:** Bearish on Day and 15, Sideways on 4H, but the *divergence* on the 15m is a *potential* early warning. * **Daily Order Block:** The *break* of the bullish Order Block is a significant bearish development. * **Sellside Liquidity (SSL):** Be aware that Smart Money may target the SSL zones below. This increases the risk of stop-loss hunting. * **Risk Management:** Due to the high uncertainty and volatility, *strict risk management is absolutely critical.* Use tight stop-losses, do not overtrade, and be prepared for rapid price swings. * **Volume:** Confirm any breakout or breakdown with volume. **Day Trading and Intraday Trading Strategies:** * **Day Trade (TF15 focus):** * **Short Bias:** Given the current 15m downtrend and negative Money Flow, the higher probability is to look for shorting opportunities. * **Entry:** Look for price to rally to resistance levels (EMAs, Order Blocks, previous support levels that have become resistance) and then show signs of rejection (bearish candlestick patterns, increasing volume on the downside). * **Stop Loss:** Place a stop-loss order above the resistance level where you enter the short position. * **Take Profit:** Target the next support level (recent lows). * **Be very cautious:** The bullish divergence on the Trend Strength indicator suggests a potential bounce *could* occur. Don't be aggressive with shorts until this divergence is invalidated. * **Avoid Long positions:** Until there's a *clear* and *confirmed* bullish reversal on the 15m chart (break above EMAs, positive Money Flow, bullish market structure). * **Swing Trade (TF4H focus):** * **Short Bias:** The 4H chart is in a downtrend. * **Entry:** Wait for price to rally to resistance levels (EMAs, Order Blocks) and show signs of rejection. * **Stop Loss:** Above the resistance level where you enter the short position. * **Take Profit:** Target the next support levels (e.g., the 200 EMA on the Daily chart, SSL zones). * **Avoid Long positions:** Until there's a *clear* and *confirmed* bullish reversal on the 4H chart. **SMC Day Trade Setup Example (TF15 - Bearish):** 1. **Identify Bearish Order Block:** Locate a bearish Order Block on the TF15 chart (a bullish candle before a strong downward move). *We have identified this in previous analyses.* 2. **Wait for Pullback:** Wait for the price to pull back up to test the Order Block (this may or may not happen). 3. **Bearish Entry:** * **Rejection:** Look for price action to reject the Order Block (e.g., a pin bar, engulfing pattern, or other bearish candlestick pattern). * **Break of Structure:** Look for a break of a minor support level on a *lower* timeframe (e.g., 1-minute or 5-minute) after the price tests the Order Block. * **Money Flow:** Confirm that Money Flow remains negative (red). 4. **Stop Loss:** Place a stop-loss order *above* the Order Block. 5. **Take Profit:** Target the next support level (e.g., recent lows) or a bullish Order Block on a higher timeframe. **In conclusion, BTCUSDT is currently in a high-risk, bearish environment in the short-to-medium term. The "Wait & See" approach is strongly recommended for most traders. Shorting is the higher-probability trade *at this moment*, but only for experienced traders who can manage risk extremely effectively. Buying is not recommended at this time.** **Disclaimer:** This analysis is for informational purposes only and represents a personal opinion. It is not financial advice.

China’s M1 increases a lot, it means there’s more money available for people and businesses to buy things. This can help boost spending and economic growth in the short term. However, if there’s too much money chasing the same amount of goods and services, prices can rise, leading to inflation. Sometimes, a rapid increase in M1 can also signal that banks are lending a lot of money, which might eventually create bubbles in things like real estate or stocks if the growth isn’t managed carefully. https://tradingeconomics.com/china/money-supply-m1 China’s M1 increases a lot, it means there’s more money available for people and businesses to buy things.

Do good & talk about it - ทำอย่างดีและพูดถึงมัน การแบ่งปันความพยายามของคุณ คุณสามารถสร้างความตระหนัก ดึงดูดการบริจาค ได้รับเงินทุน และสร้างการเชื่อมต่อที่มีคุณค่า แม้ว่าการนำเสนอตัวเอง ไม่ว่าจะเป็นบนโซเชียลมีเดีย การสัมภาษณ์ หรือในพอดแคสต์ อาจรู้สึกน่ากลัวในตอนแรก แต่มันก็คุ้มค่า การพูดอย่างเปิดเผยเกี่ยวกับภารกิจของคุณไม่เพียงแต่สร้างความไว้วางใจและความน่าเชื่อถือ แต่ยังช่วยทำให้มีการสนับสนุนชุมชนเพิ่มขึ้นในส่วนอื่นๆ รอบตัวคุณ 5. Be like Tarzan - เป็นเหมือนทาร์ซาน ถ้าคุณต้องการไปจากจุด A ถึง B โดยส่วนใหญ่เส้นทางของคุณจะไม่เป็นเส้นตรง จงฉวยโอกาส แกว่งจากเถาวัลย์หนึ่งไปอีกเถาวัลย์หนึ่ง คว้าโอกาสที่เข้ามา การใช้ชีวิตแบบนั้นสนุกกว่ามากและคุณจะได้รับประสบการณ์มากมายระหว่างทาง คุณทำได้! 6. Recalibrate every month - ปรับปรุงใหม่ทุกเดือน อย่าวิ่งไปมาเหมือนไก่ไม่มีหัว ในทีมของเรา มักถูกเบี่ยงเบนความสนใจ สูญเสียจุดยืน และทำงานที่ไม่ได้พาไปใกล้เป้าหมายที่ตั้งไว้ ดังนั้นเราจึงแนะนำการประชุมรายเดือน เพื่อทบทวนความสำเร็จ เป้าหมาย บทเรียนที่ได้รับ และการปรับเปลี่ยนที่จำเป็น เริ่มต้นแต่ละเดือนด้วยเป้าหมายที่ชัดเจน คงความสอดคล้องและทำงานให้มีประสิทธิภาพมากขึ้นเพื่อมุ่งสู่เป้าหมาย 7. Teach the kids, reach the parents - สอนเด็ก เข้าถึงพ่อแม่ เราเริ่มจัดเวิร์คช็อปสำหรับเด็กและรู้สึกเหมือนเป็นการโกง เด็กๆ ชอบมันมาก แต่สิ่งที่น่าประหลาดใจคือพ่อแม่ของพวกเขา เมื่อพวกเขามาส่งหรือมารับลูก พวกเขาเกิดความอยากรู้และต้องการเรียนรู้เพิ่มเติม มักจะกลับมาที่ Bitcoin House ของเราด้วยตัวเอง (และมันสนุกมากที่มี “ลูกสมุนอาชญากร” ที่อยากรู้อยากเห็นอยู่รอบตัวคุณ) 8. Let them learn hands-on ให้พวกเขาเรียนรู้แบบลงมือทำ การเรียนรู้จะมีประสิทธิภาพมากขึ้นเมื่อเป็นประสบการณ์ ผู้คนเรียนรู้ได้เร็วขึ้นเมื่อพวกเขาสามารถลอง สัมผัส และเห็นสิ่งที่พวกเขากำลังเรียนรู้ ดังนั้นคำแนะนำของเรา : พิมพ์สื่อ และนำเครื่องมือทางกายภาพมา เช่น ฮาร์ดแวร์วอลเล็ต โหนด หรือแม้แต่เครื่องขุด สำหรับการพบปะ เราพบว่าการให้ความรู้ได้ผลดีที่สุด เริ่มต้นด้วยการนำเสนอสั้นๆ หรือแบบฝึกหัดแบบลงมือทำเพื่อเจาะลึกสิ่งใหม่ๆ เกี่ยวกับบิทคอยน์ จากนั้นตามด้วยการพบปะอย่างไม่เป็นทางการ 9. Snag freebies at conferences - คว้าของฟรีในงานประชุม ข่าวดี: คุณไม่จำเป็นต้องซื้อทุกสิ่งที่เรากล่าวถึงใน ข้อ 8 บริษัทบิทคอยน์ชอบสนับสนุนการศึกษา ดังนั้นแค่ไปงานประชุมและคว้าของฟรี! ขอขอบคุณอย่างมากสำหรับ Hodlshop, Blockstream, StampSeed, Konsensus Network และบริษัทบิทคอยน์อื่นๆ อีกมากมาย—ที่ BTC Prague เราได้รับกระเป๋าเงินฮาร์ดแวร์มือสอง แผ่นเหล็ก และหนังสือเพียงแค่ร้องขอหรือสอบถาม 10. Create a home - สร้างบ้าน การมีพื้นที่ทางกายภาพไว้คอยต้อนรับเพิ่มคุณค่าให้ชุมชนอย่างมาก เป็นพื้นที่ปลอดภัยในการเรียนรู้ ถามคำถาม ทำผิดพลาด และเชื่อมต่อกับเพื่อน Bitcoin House ของเรามีสีสัน เต็มไปด้วยสิ่งที่ต้องค้นหา และบรรจุอุปกรณ์ที่สนุกสนาน (เช่น Bitcoiner Parking, Bitcoin Swing, FEDIminton court ฯลฯ) เราเริ่มทักทายแขกด้วยคำว่า "ยินดีต้อนรับสู่บ้าน" เพื่อให้พวกเขารู้สึกดีตั้งแต่เริ่มต้น เปลี่ยนอุปสรรคให้เป็นโอกาส 11. Push the limits ... but don't die as a martyr - ผลักดันขีดจำกัด ... แต่อย่าตายเหมือนผู้กล้า โดยเฉพาะถ้าคุณอยู่ในประเทศเผด็จการที่บิทคอยน์ถูกแบน ผลักดันต่อไปเพื่อปรับปรุงชีวิตของผู้คนรอบตัวคุณ แต่ให้รู้ว่าเส้นแบ่งอยู่ที่ไหน มันเกี่ยวกับการสร้างผลกระทบโดยไม่ต้องเสียสละตัวเองในการทำงาน 12. It might get worse before it's getting better ... be prepared - อาจจะแย่ลงก่อนที่จะดีขึ้น ... เตรียมตัว เราค่อนข้างอ่อนประสบการณ์ในตอนแรก อาจจะแย่ก่อนที่จะดีขึ้นและนั่นไม่เป็นไร เราไม่สามารถคาดหวังให้การยอมรับบิทคอยน์เกิดขึ้นอย่างราบรื่น บางครั้งเรื่องก็ไม่เป็นไปตามแผน โดยเฉพาะถ้าคุณผลักดันขีดจำกัด จะมีการต่อต้านและพยายามข่มขู่ เตรียมพร้อมสำหรับสิ่งที่แย่ที่สุด มีแผนฉุกเฉินบางอย่าง นั่นหมายถึง: รู้ว่าจะโทรหาใคร รู้ว่าควรพูดอะไรและไม่ควรพูดอะไร ดูแลความเป็นส่วนตัวของคุณ เก็บบิทคอยน์ของคุณไว้อย่างปลอดภัย 13. Combine Bitcoin with the local culture - ผสมผสานบิทคอยน์กับวัฒนธรรมท้องถิ่น แทนที่จะบอกว่าบิทคอยน์เป็นสิ่งที่ใหม่โดยสิ้นเชิง ให้หาความคล้ายคลึงกันระหว่างวัฒนธรรมท้องถิ่น ความเชื่อ ค่านิยม และประเพณี จากนั้นมันจะง่ายขึ้นมากสำหรับผู้คนที่จะรู้สึกเชื่อมโยงและเปิดรับบิทคอยน์มากขึ้น 14. MFB is f*cking awesome - MFB (My First Bitcoin) เจ๋งมาก เราสงสัยมากเกี่ยวกับ My First Bitcoin เราหาเหตุผลนับไม่ถ้วนว่ามันจะไม่ได้ผล โดยไม่เคยลอง นั่นคือความผิดพลาดครั้งใหญ่ เรารู้สึกทึ่งกับผลที่เกิดขึ้น ทุกสัปดาห์ เราเห็นผู้คนเปลี่ยนแปลงและนำชีวิตของพวกเขาไปในทิศทางใหม่ โปรแกรมนี้สนุก และนักเรียนอยากรู้อยากเห็นมาก หลังการสอบ หลายคนต้องการมีส่วนร่วมในบิทคอยน์ บางคนถึงขั้นกลายเป็นอาสาสมัครหรือครูเอง ถ้าคุณยังไม่ได้สอนคลาสนี้ ลองทำให้มันเกิดขึ้น! 15. Find your Ikigai in the project - หา Ikigai ของคุณ ลองทำสิ่งต่างๆ เพื่อหาจุดที่เหมาะสมของคุณในบิทคอยน์ เราทุกคนอยู่ที่นี่เพื่อจุดประสงค์บางอย่าง ทำในสิ่งที่คุณรักและสิ่งที่ทำให้คุณมีความสุขเพื่อรักษาแรงจูงใจในระยะยาว ในทีมของเรา Dimas พบ ikigai ของเขาในการสอน ในขณะที่ Keypleb มีความหลงใหลอย่างมากในด้านเทคนิคของบิทคอยน์ Diana ชอบความคิดสร้างสรรค์ สร้างเนื้อหา และดูแลการสื่อสาร ในขณะที่ Marius ชอบ orange-pilling ผู้คนและนำร้านค้ามาเข้าร่วม การรู้ความหลงใหลและจุดแข็งของแต่ละคนช่วยเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพของโครงการโดยรวม ปรับปรุงต่อไป 16. Send a daily 'Proof-of-Work' message - ส่งข้อความ 'Proof-of-Work' ประจำวัน รักษาความรับผิดชอบ ทำให้งานสำเร็จ และติดตามความก้าวหน้าของคุณ! เรื่องราวมากมายสามารถเกิดขึ้นได้ในวันเดียว และนิสัยนี้ช่วยให้คุณอยู่ในเส้นทางและเห็นผลลัพธ์จริง เมื่อเราเริ่มทำสิ่งนี้ ผลงานอาจจะเพิ่มเป็นสองเท่า นอกจากนี้ มันเป็นแรงจูงใจที่จะเห็น PoW ของคนอื่นและความก้าวหน้าโดยรวมของทีมทั้งหมดในเพียงวันเดียว 17. Put your money where your mouth is - ทำในสิ่งที่คุณพูด ถ้าคุณเชื่อมั่นในภารกิจและโครงการของคุณ เริ่มต้นด้วยเงินของคุณเอง เราใช้เงินส่วนตัวจำนวนมากในตอนแรกเพื่อให้การศึกษาฟรี สร้าง Bitcoin house และจัดการพบปะและเวิร์คช็อปทั้งหมด สิ่งนี้แสดงให้คนอื่นเห็นว่าเราจริงจังกับเรื่องนี้มากแค่ไหน 18. If you have the courage to speak it out, it will happen - ถ้าคุณมีความกล้าที่จะพูดออกไป มันจะเกิดขึ้น!! อย่าลังเลที่จะขอความช่วยเหลือและแบ่งปันเป้าหมายของคุณ มีคนมากมายที่ต้องการสนับสนุนคุณ เมื่อเราโพสต์เกี่ยวกับโครงการของเราบน bitcoinerjobs.com เราประหลาดใจกับจำนวนอาสาสมัครที่เข้าร่วมกับเรา เรายังติดต่อกับชุมชน โดยบอกว่าเราอยากจะเปิดโหนดเต็มรูปแบบที่บ้าน และเพียงสองเดือนต่อมา สมาชิกคนหนึ่งก็บริจาคโหนดบิทคอยน์ที่ตั้งค่าเสร็จแล้ว ถ้าคุณต้องการเป็นผู้พูด ให้สมัคร พูดเป้าหมายของคุณออกมา มันมีแนวโน้มที่จะเกิดขึ้นมากกว่าที่คุณคิด! 19. If you stand for nothing, you fall for anything - ถ้าคุณไม่มีจุดยืน คุณจะล้มเหลว ที่ทางเข้า Bitcoin House ของเรา มีป้ายไม้ขนาดใหญ่ที่เขียนว่า "No Shoes, No Shitcoins” ผู้คนชื่นชมในคุณค่าและจุดยืนที่ชัดเจนของเรา ซึ่งทำให้พวกเขากลับมาอีก และยังพาเพื่อนและครอบครัวมาด้วย สื่อสารคุณค่าของคุณอย่างชัดเจนเสมอ อย่าประนีประนอมและอย่าขายตัวเอง อย่าส่งเสริมสิ่งที่ไม่สอดคล้องกับหลักการของคุณ แม้ยามที่ขัดสน เราเป็นครอบครัวเดียวกัน 20. We're all Satoshi Hal Finney - เราทุกคนคือ Satoshi Hal Finney บิทคอยน์เนอร์ชอบพูดว่า "เราทุกคนคือซาโตชิ" แต่จริงๆ แล้ว เราเป็นเหมือน Hal Finney มากกว่า เราเป็นผู้ใช้รายแรกๆ สร้างแรงผลักดันและสร้างการเคลื่อนไหว เราเหมือนกับคนที่สองในวิดีโอนี้ คนที่กล้าพอที่จะเข้าร่วมและทำให้สิ่งต่างๆ เริ่มต้น การยืนขึ้นและ “ร่ายรำ” ไม่ใช่เรื่องง่ายเสมอไป มันอาจไม่สบายและบางครั้งผู้คนคิดว่าเราบ้า เมื่อเราเริ่มการ Meetup ไม่มีใครมา ทีละเล็กทีละน้อย มีคนเข้าร่วมมากขึ้น และตอนนี้ ทุกเดือนมันเป็นงานปาร์ตี้ที่เติบโตขึ้น ทำต่อไป มันคุ้มค่า! 21. Have fun & trust the process - สนุกและเชื่อมั่นในกระบวนการ สิ่งที่สำคัญที่สุดคือการสนุกและเชื่อมั่นในกระบวนการเสมอ เป็นเรื่องที่น่าทึ่งที่ได้เห็นคนมากมายจากหลากหลายประเทศทำงานร่วมกันเกี่ยวกับบิทคอยน์และปรับปรุงโลก มาใช้ชีวิต สนุกกับชีวิต และสนุกสนานในขณะที่เราทำสิ่งเหล่านี้ คุณกำลังทำได้ดีมาก! โบนัส: Plebs together strong - สามัคคีคือพลัง เข้าร่วมชุมชน เครือข่าย และโปรแกรมเช่น My First Bitcoin, Plan B Network, Federation of Circular Economies, Fedi, Bitcoin Beach, Bitcoin For Fairness และอื่นๆ อีกมากมาย เราแข็งแกร่งขึ้นเมื่ออยู่ด้วยกัน และมีสิ่งมากมายที่เราสามารถเรียนรู้จากกันและกัน Thank you :
