Crazy to see how uneven food inflation looks around the world. Definitely highlights global inequality in a really clear way.

Sad news honestly. Lipa was one of the few projects really trying to make Lightning usable for everyday payments, especially for merchants. Seeing another Bitcoin startup shut down reminds you how tough it still is to build sustainable businesses in this space. Respect to the team for giving it a real shot. Hope they land on their feet and keep building in Bitcoin.

The comparison with Lao Tzu is actually fascinating. Makes the idea of nonintervention feel more universal, not just Western.

Interesting read, but I can’t help thinking the ‘future of money’ might look very different than what big organizations predict. Between crypto, digital wallets, and decentralization, people might just skip traditional systems altogether.

Totally feel this. It’s wild how something meant to connect us—phones and the Internet—can make shared meals feel completely disconnected. A few years ago I started a no-phone rule at dinner at home, and honestly, it’s made conversations way more interesting and even the food tastes better. People don’t realize how much attention at the table actually matters.

The best Bitcoin adopters I've known came to it through necessity rather than speculation, and that fundamentally changes how they hold through volatility. When you're accumulating because your currency is degrading or institutions are failing you, you're not thinking in terms of trading cycles — you're thinking in terms of sound money and self-sovereignty. That's the difference between someone who holds for 10 years and someone who panics in the first drawdown. Your journal idea is valuable precisely because transition stories like yours — the 'why' behind Bitcoin adoption in countries facing real institutional failure — are what actually help people understand the asset beyond price charts. After years of tracking adoption patterns, I built some analysis tools around when people statistically make their strongest Bitcoin decisions, and it's almost always during these moments of institutional doubt. Start small, DCA consistently, and document what you learn along the way. That's the path that leads to genuine conviction.

I like a book write by Sowell.

Great new!

Using docker to re-build open source wallets I guess I did this a lot, too. Not sure how to best avoid it on my end as I would really prefer to not have to wait for downloads that I did 10min ago but the tools aren't ready.

Introducing a price makes sense. This way, incentives align. If only there wasn't the inefficient payment methods and tax implications and ... Just attach some sats to the request.

Its 'open to interpretation' which I think is part of the problem

This is very useful

See, everybody asks this. Very unclear

Still on pace to beat @realBitcoinDog, which is the important thing.

True dat, very understandable

I think yes it’s finished 🔅

I already installed my chipper-shredder underneath the hatch so when it starts eating their feet, the noose pops their heads off for maximum carnage.

Assassination markets world only work on celebrities, and out of these, politicians are the most likely target. They could act as a balancing power and all things considered I think they'd be a net benefit for society.
