I'm really excited about the subcultures of both bitcoin and psychedelics being adopted into the general culture and it will become normalized!

Smart is hard because there are different types of smarts. Street smart. Book smart.

But I have had amazing teachers guiding me throughout my life including those departed that still teach me

That perhaps Satoshi is the State that released the code for controlled demolition of the fiat debt

Yes, I would consider any of these info to be KYC

My relationship with the mushroom changed when I first experienced death of loved ones in a short period of time that created a lot of death anxiety for me. I had been exposed to psilocybin earlier in festival settings, and had transformational altering of consciousness and over a period of few years worked with mushrooms along with cognitive behavioral therapy and meditation to help real in the anxious thoughts. I did not want to use pharmaceuticals to numb.

Great question. Psychedelics help break the ego down and also help visualize complicated macro systems such as Bitcoin. I think structurally they share a network structure that distributes information and energy, mushrooms being done chemically whereas bitcoin digitally.

The spiritual awakening that comes with bitcoin and psychedelics are also an interesting parallel. I believe it's due to the distilling of values that is most important in scarcity of time and supply.

Psychedelics csme first and then Bitcoin.

I would give up Bitcoin first. It would suck but worst cast scenario, I just have to go back to the fiat mines. I would need psychedelics to help crush my ego tho 😭

The parallels are definitely intriguing right?!

I do believe that Bitcoin is the digital mycelium that mines energy to transport it around the network and will decompose central bank power to revive decentralized economies that fit better to human needs. In that sense, I would say we are symbiotic with bitcoin technology to keep account but I am not sure if I would go so far to say Bitcoin is living as a book is alive. Definitely worth meditating on! 🤔

Yes, it was an old Trezor hardware wallet that was compromised. Luckily it was divided into three wallets, legacy, segwit, and taproot, and the active taproot wallet I was withdrawing from was drained in two txs. I was able to move the other wallets by shear luck of a softfork firewall.

I am not a coder or a bitcoin developer, so I am still unsure how it was compromised but I believe that it was possibly due to using an address twice? Anybody that can enlighten me on this is welcome so we do not repeat the mistake.

There are 100s of types of psilocybin containing mushrooms in the natural world and new genetics are being discovered with every survey. Humans are cloning more potent mushrooms that are now available on the streets, so as with anything dyor with strains and potency!

With that said, golden teachers or similar potent mushrooms are a good introductory strain. Potency is variable and more important than strain so a good home test kit that can measure active content still needs to become available or lab tested if sold in dispensaries.

Definitely Brandon Quittem, the author of Bitcoin is the Mycelium of Money and Bitcoin is a Pioneer Species. He was the reason why I navigated to Bitcoin Twitter when I came across his work while working online advocacy for the Decriminalize Nature movement.

The short term vision is to plug-in and create networks in four mycelium layers of development:

Physical mycelium - Regenerative farm & grow, event spaces, hardware

Human mycelium - Networking, events, membership community models

Digital mycelium - Website, social media, markets, bounty job boards, Prisms split payments, software

Financial mycelium - Multisig institutional wallets, lightning node markets, crowdfunfing on geyser.fund

In the long term, we hope to create a legacy open source institution that anyone is allowed to enter and create healing centers and retreats for authentic human experiences.

p.s. Psychedelics helps with vision quests! We need help developing all of these mycelium layers!

The biggest challenge has been organizing real life gatherings and events in meatspace to educate people in the values of bitcoin and psychedelics with the ideological divisions amongst different online platforms.

We are now seeing organizing tools with bitcoin/lightning built in apps that local meetups are utilizing and would like to use some of these new tools for event organizing. We also support technologies such as nostr that helps prevent censorship and also has lightning channels built in.
