You realize how much power that gets you?

Dear IRS,
I thought I made 1 bitcoin in revenue this year, but it turns out I forget to plug-in my hardware wallet, so you see, I cannot have actually received any bitcoin so my income is 0.

On Friday, a young Australian was imprisoned for 8 months for protesting.
On Saturday, Aus police fired rubber bullets at protesters.
On Sunday we learn a council in NSW Aus has been shooting dogs so people won’t be tempted to visit them during lockdown.

Andrew Yang has by far the highest market predicted odds of winning against Trump.
Code is public to audit or run with new data as it comes out.
According to recent polls, I’m one of only two candidates in the Democratic field that is drawing support from 10% or more of Trump voters. That means if I’m the nominee we win. That’s just the

An interesting thing about people on the autism spectrum is they are not just bad at lying, but also find it uncomfortable.
This is the likely reason why there are so many autistic people in Bitcoin -- they are simply unable to carry on in the fantasy world most people live in.

Can it really do all of this? I am not entirely sure -- however, it is foolish to operate in correctness-space rather than payoff-space.

They will all be paid in bitcoin over lightning.
The permissionless gig economy will bring in ~$10k profit/user: that's a trillion in profit going into bitcoin per year.
Game over, fiat.
Sci Hub has probably put us years ahead with our tech and that will yield compound returns in perpetuity. I imagine that eventually a paper that cannot be accessed by all will be considered pseudoscience. No wonder that the most rigorous science (physics) goes straight to arXiv.
Sci Hub just keeps growing. It’s Napster for science: any paper instantly for free. Of course, taxpayer-funded research arguably should already be free. Seems like only a matter of time before Sci Hub’s entire library is put onto something like IPFS.
Yo, lmao, Ripple now owns Swan Bitcoin??

I asked my waitress tonight if she wanted a tip in worthless Canadian dollars, or bitcoin. Another waitress who is a bit older (maybe 40) says "bitcoin" very definitively. Bullish AF.
Younger waitress had also been talking to her friend about Bitcoin recently and had questions.
Wherein I more rigorously debunk the energy FUD, with a compact formulation of it's thermodynamic implications, and without flimsy claims around mining driving renewables.
I prove fiat money destroys the environment, so we must stop it to save the planet.
In 1971, there were under 200,000 millionaires in the US, so probably under 500,000 globally.
Today the number of millionaires is 100-200x higher.
A million ain't what it used to be.
Owning a whole coin is similar to being a millionaire 50 years ago.

Or you could not work a job, buy bitcoin early, then be homeless in the wilderness for a couple decades, then come back a trillionaire. There's always a better option.
You ever wonder where all the basic bitcoin tweets are coming from that really just don't need to exist?

@BrianRoemmele
Brian, when will you use LibGen and SciHub to compile all scientific research and textbooks available?
That would be a far more powerful tool than the patents alone.
The transition to high oleic seed oils will come to be seen as the most important health breakthrough of the first half of the 21st century.
Let us consider some products that might accelerate that transition. First I will provide context on seed oils and the high oleic variant.

Even if you already think Brian is right (directionally), he might be even more right (magnitude) than you think.
@saifedean
You already own the trademark by virtue of using it.
Trademark protection is established through use; any registration of a trademark that is in use by a 3rd party is just as invalid and meaningless as if they were to file a patent on something you had been publicly selling.
VCs if Satoshi were pitching them:
"You mean to tell us you've never made a new monetary asset and taken down every major empire of the modern world before? Sorry, we invest first in Teams, and clearly you are not experienced in this space. Maybe after you collapse 1 nation."
Satoshi Nakamoto did not incorporate a legal entity for his Bitcoin project. Neither should you. Create nyms. Receive sats directly. Let fiat business models die with fiat money.
I've been saying we need the Silk Road of pharmaceuticals that copy your 3,000,000% markup patented drug and floods it everywhere for a fraction of the cost.
Fuck smallfab, we have technology.
If regular drugs had been on Silk Road, I would have gotten into btc 5 years earlier.
We need to sprint towards homefab and smallfab versions of as much of the pharma stack as possible
It's ridiculous that the FDA and broader medical establishment should stand between people and drugs

In case you are wondering how the Cantillon effect works, Microstrategy makes it incredibly legible.
Companies get counterfeit money that is stolen from the slave class, buy up the real goods, leaving less for eveyone else, preserving the slavery.
In the last year
@MicroStrategy
stock has gained 452.92%, while the price of
#bitcoin
has increased by 306.66%. One reason MSTR shares outperformed was due to the company leveraging their balance sheet to acquire even more bitcoin.
I just donated 100,000 sats.
I (sort of) know what it's like to fight for freedom living on the cold streets because I live in a van while I work on accelerating Bitcoin, and it gets damn cold if my propane goes out.
I hope this helps buy some propane and (non-seed-oil) food.
MSTR is basically a giant group buy for ultra cheap, low interest money printer access to speculatively attack the dollar and acquire more bitcoin.
@saylor
has made multibillionaire level prime money printer access available to the public. This short-circuits the fiat system. ⚡️
If $MSTR does what I think it’s going to do, it would allow major shareholders to sell some and buy way more

than they paid for by buying the share.
Within 6.15 years, I expect we will see 100 million people doing gig work on

Seems high. If history PhDs only learn about absurd irrelevant details while being oblivious to the foundations of basic human interactions and how they scale, doesn't seem like it's worth anything at all.
Don't worry, most people are useless, including most >$300k salary types.

To all the people saying it's not a big deal, please think of all the brave, innovative founders and VCs who were on the verge of having to fly first class with the peasants instead of continuing to lease their private jets. Thank you.
A very anti-American policy.
That it is even "considered" poses an existential threat to American companies that want to hire Americans.

Microstrategy now owns 1 out of 170 bitcoin.
There are 195 countries in the world.
The average country can never have as much bitcoin as Microstrategy.
And most bitcoin is not for sale anyway.
The great decentralization of power and wealth will blow people's minds.
Wealthy people have a lower percentage of cash compared to poorer people, but that doesn't mean they don't also have the majority of the cash.
Most of those dollars will not have exit liquidity. Not many bitcoin will be traded above ~$5m, might only take a few hours to finish.

BORING. I just talked to the CEO of tungsten (the element), gold (the element), and silicon (the same one TSMC needs), and they're all getting on board and making big moves.
Dear IRS,

You're going to go out of business because you have a poor understanding of Bitcoin and didn't build an efficient mining operation.
Difficulty will adjust downward. Tick-tock, next block.
Lmk if you want suggestions on where to learn about the basics of how Bitcoin works.
Now that we know a lot of the venture capital lists are BS, paid-for propaganda, would anyone be interested in a website that ranks VCs by how much they can deadlift?
This is why I say on Clubhouse that talking to regulators, or getting traditional "investors" involved is irrelevant to Bitcoin's growth. Bitcoin's growth will drag them in all on its own.
It is fiat mentality to attempt to accelerate things (top down) beyond their natural pace.
Microstrategy and El Salvador are not among the CAUSES of
#Bitcoin
success, but among the EFFECTS. If it was not them, it would be other public-companies or other nation-states. Bitcoin doesn't need people. People do need Bitcoin. Don't get causality upside down.
I warned this was a problem days before it happened.
What I didn't anticipate was just how bad it could get.

This is a short tutorial how to get Bitcoin Core working on the new RockChip RK3566, a small SBC that has an M2 socket directly on it. The board itself is also more slim and would make for a great full node for travelers.

Every p2p marketplace that is currently run by centralized coordinators (Uber, Airbnb, UpWork, Ebay, Craigslist, Doordash, TaskRabbit, etc) will be replaced by reputation management relays.
Size of p2p economy will skyrocket, and all will learn to manage keys and use Lightning.
Reminder: if you have zero income, your first ~$41k in capital gains is not federally taxed. You can specify lots.
i.e. you can live on zero fiat on have zero capital gains

This is me after a week in Israel, in June
Walking around shirtless all the time
And I had been fully carnivorous
Without seed oils for 6 months at the time
I was wrong to want the Bits standard
Bytes the standard
1 byte = 8 sats
At the original $10m/bitcoin estimate, then 1 byte = 1 dollar
Perfect transition
The masses will onboard with bytes
"New to bitcoin? You don't need a whole coin, you can start with just a little byte!"
How to get rich (without getting lucky):
1) Buy laundromat in low energy cost city
2) Get loan for new machines. Buy bitcoin miners instead
3) Connect miners to 220V dryer plugs, retrofit dryers to use miner heated air
4) Bitcoin ATM and hardware wallet vending machine up front
How much of a premium would you pay to eat at a restaurant completely free of toxic vegetable oils.
So all the sauces, frying, baking oils, etc. No canola, sunflower, rapeseed (restaurants use a lot of these) allowed.
Avocado oil, coconut oil, ghee, tallow, butter, etc OK.
