Show Notes

Bitcoin. The tip of the spear in the evolution of money. $ BTC 99,194 Block Height 882,298 Today's guest on the show is @JosephVoelbel, Author of Pay Attention To #Bitcoin. How did his love of philosophy and English Literature lead @JosephVoelbel to #Bitcoin? Why does he look back at his lettuce-handedness of 2017 as a key lesson of his #Bitcoin journey? How do you build conviction about #bitcoin and why is it important to do that first before 'over' investing in monetary terms? A huge thank you to @JosephVoelbel...

Hal Finney was the first person to recognize utility in Satoshi's software. I wouldn't have understood bitcoin's utility back then, but that doesn't mean it had no utility. The man behind RPOW thought it had utility. The fact that your dentist doesn't recognize bitcoin's utility because she can't use it to fill a cavity is moot.

People are using magic the gathering cards from surveil.cards as entropy to generate BIP39 words. 😲 That seems a little wreckless.

r < g Is a 180° turn from Tomas Pickety's famous mathmatical expression in Captial On The 21st Century. Pickety argued that wealth inequality was created because r > g Before you start calling me a Commie, I did not say I am a Pickety super fan. I am into Austrian economics, but I studied many different schools before I finally found Hazlit. I never read Capital in the 21st Century, but I was an avid econtalk listener. If we accept the current financial regime does not view the world through an Auatrian lens, we can see the math behind what I believe is another 4th Turning. Bessent announced he wants to turn r>g around. He literally means flipping r>g to r<g.👀 https://www.econtalk.org/thomas-piketty-on-inequality-and-c…

👀 If I'm in agreement with Jamie Dimon, the US fiscal outlook must be worse than I thought. I think he's starting to get it. He'll pump stableshitcoins first, for sure, but I think he's begining to understand the problem.

Strike bill pay is a game changer. I know," not your keys, not your bitcoin", but if I must use a bank, I would rather use a bitcoin 100% reserve bank.

I think about this quote in the context of Karl Popper's definition of an open society quite a bit these days. "Privacy is necessary for an open society." https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqs2pate7e2akk9utjz56xyxl8aqx9h…

I appreciate you calling out the cheap tricks of journalism: bias, gPT, subtle (or not so subtle) pursuation…the traditional media is hypnotizing the masses.

Selfcustody muss bei Bitcoin immer eine valide Option sein, sonst ist eine wesentliche Eigenschaft von Bitcoin nicht gegeben: Zensurresistenz. Selbstverständlich ist alleinige Selfcustody für bestimmte usecases nicht optimal, sollte aber immer möglich bleiben.

    Guys, The smear campaign against Bitcoin Hodlers has already started in Europe by ECB employees: "This redistribution of wealth and purchasing power is unlikely to occur without detrimental consequences for society. Even if the Latecomers cannot attribute their loss of purchasing power, they will feel a malaise and frustration, that will contribute further to an ever more split society. " Source: Bindseil, Ulrich and Schaaf, Jürgen Günter, The distributional consequences of Bitcoin (November 02, 2024). Available at SSRN: https://ssrn.com/abstract=4985877 Looking forward to meeting you at BTC Prague 2025, Daniel.
