Show Notes
“All of us matter because we are Bitcoin. We're defending it. We're building the path forward so it's used as a medium of exchange. We are the network.” On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Jeff Booth and Uncle Rockstar. This was an impromptu Nostr-only live stream and if you want to watch this show live, you can only do that on Nostr. It’s also the first time Rockstar and Jeff have ever done a recorded conversation together, and I’m honored that I was able to host it because I respect...

For those grappling with NGU and Freedom go up like me this is an excellent discussion amongst two amazing Bitcoin contributors in both spaces @npub1qwvv44dxm… @npub1j8y6tcdfw… . I personally have struggled to understand that without those explicitly interested in NGU, there will be no FGU. The altruistic ideals of Bitcoin mask our desires to gain wealth. Yes, we do want 7 billion plus people without reliable currency to be in control of their wealth, but this won’t happen unless the perceived value of BTC goes up. Oh wow, stray energy can be captured instead of flared into the environment to support the network making the currency harder. Not gonna happen unless there is incentive for those knowledgable to do so. Just a couple of examples that originally got me into Bitcoin, and for awhile I resented those that didn’t share my altruistic beliefs and only cared about their bank accounts. It cannot be one of the other, acquiring personal wealth via NGU is the only thing that will enable FGU in this decentralized system. We cannot rely on VC organizations to fund every project, @npub1qny3tkh0a… @npub1sg6plzptd… @npub1cn4t4cd78… etc can only do so much to bootstrap Bitcoin adoption, @npub12rv5lskct… @Derek Ross can only create and GM #nostr and cash.me into existence so much without needing #bitcoin and #ngu validating what they are building. Lastly, the only way my friends and family will believe I’m not a psychopath lunatic is for the number to go up. Awesome rip @npub1cj8znuztf… keep podcasting this shit into existence!

Hi. Great talk. I heard Uncle Rockstar mention a person or site where you can send Bitcoin to help Palestine. Can you please include the address? I’ve been looking for this for a long time.
