Chat_178 - Our Burden To Carry with American HODL, Erik Cason, and Brandon Quittem

Great stories, it's pretty cool how it all came together. Bitcoiners united around Phish via this podcast realized. It's going to lead to something special at lake satoshi this summer, I know it.

Great to see you in Vegas! Love from Seattle

Hard Forks create Pioneers Pioneers create Vibe Code Vibe Code creates Pleb Slop Pleb Slop creates Hard Forks

A good antidote for pleb slop is the local Bitcoin meetup. Ditch the plebs on the sloppy socials and join the pioneers on the local frontier. Can't find a meetup? Start one!

Pleb slop psychosis is unconsciously holding so many back from achieving their potential. Sad…

🫡👍🏻👍🏻

It really does feel like you're sitting around the coffee table listening to a great conversation. The pioneers are going to be half way through the first turning before the plebs even realize it's they've been left behind in the fourth turning.

Flair espresso maker is a manual plastic free(in brewing chamber, not overall) and sub $400 option. Great shots and durable af

Need that Vegas event to happen again this year

👍🏻👍🏻🫡

Sounds like the conference was good, might be onto something with pleb daycare. #40hpw

Wore the “Bugle News” red shirt in Vegas

Hugs are underrated

Next year hug inbound!!

When details on the Sasha Vegas run?

Haven't finished yet, but what I'm getting from this episode is be more like Bilbo Baggins. Read the terms, go on the adventure. Don't let your perceived size, or the threat of death stop you. Using courage and wisdom, blended in measure. Valuing food and cheer and song above hoarded gold and power. And for Richard, smoking a good pipe.

Is my fountain subscriber working now?

👍🏻👍🏻🫡

This year at Lake Satoshi, I think it's safe to say, the meshtadel truly went from concept to reality. From here on out, it's now about building it and making it stronger. I'm looking forward to more Bitcoiners joining us.

👍🏻👍🏻

Calling all local Bitcoiners, you can pick up Otis Bitmeyer coffee direct at meetups in the Michigan meshtadel network! Come hang with me at The South Bend Indiana Bitcoin Meetup, the first Thursday every month at Lang Lab, 630pm. Learn something, earn something, share something, buy something, build relationships and resilience with local Bitcoiners.

Every pioneer, a podcaster.

Great vibes

👍🏻👍🏻💯

Quantum computers don't exist

Continued love from the Seattle crew

Great rip!! 🫡👍🏻

I love the idea that if the mission to the moon was a failure they were ready to fake it. That makes a lot of sense as there is so much evidence suggesting both are true. We went to the moon and we also faked it.

Mid and upper models of Flair Espresso maker are plastic free in the brewing areas and around $400-500. Tradeoff is it’s manual but that is just more proof of work. Pair with a metal hot water kettle and you’re all set.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Plebs become pioneers by participating in their local Bitcoin culture. @npub1cvcgs83gw… is the podcast where the plebs can find out about Bitcoin meetups and the pioneers can learn how to start one. Hyperbitcoinization is a local phenomena.

Hero series has been awesome

🤣🤣🤣 Plebs segregating themselves is pretty hilarious

This podcast was awesome. Tidwell is a perfect example of people calmly and thoughtfully explaining a view that people don’t like getting zero engagement. Sad. Even on Nostr the ragebait gets the clicks. Well worth the listen.

Unify all Bitcoiners! Attend your local meetup for maximum unity.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

⚡️⚡️FINANCE BRO PODCASTS ARE THE REAL SHITCOIN!!!!

After several years of continuing to reduce my participation in the fiat system, those who have stuck with me have given up on trying to drag me back into the system. They still don't really understand what the ideals I'm striving for though.

Extraction creates disconnection, unification is love, consensus governance is unification, Bitcoin is loving. To stop participating in extraction and to more deeply participate in unification, is how Bitcoin fixes this.

It's time the pioneers organized a rally. Rally on the frontier. Rally in the underground. Rally around Bitcoin, Sovereignty and Freedom. Show the plebs and podconf that the pioneers are alive and well, show them the movement is at their doorstep. Pleb Slop be damned!

We are in the best timeline

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️

Listen to Bitcoin Optech to stay informed about what's going on with development in Bitcoin. There's always a surprising amount of cool stuff being showcased and worked on. #40hpw

French CTV 🤣🤣🤣

👍🏻👍🏻

What if my month of supplies is all beans and rice because I’m trying to save sats? Still gay?

Will the state attack those seeking sovereignty via their children? The school systems and medical systems could be a dangerous place for children. Privacy and parallel systems are paramount to front running any of the scenarios discussed on this episode. #40hpw #valuechain

I think this was one of your best sponsors! Hope you can keep working with them long term. Also the song at the end!

Bugle Vegas party this year?

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

If it doesn’t have in app unilateral exit, it’s custodial, period. This is not negotiable. If something is not implemented then it simply doesn’t exist for the average user. 99.99999% of Spark users don’t even know a CLI app exists let alone how to use it. Without local caching and unilateral exit actually implemented in the app and having hard dependency on operator cooperation to exit then it’s custodial. Listen I actually like Spark and think it makes reasonable tradeoffs in a world without covenants, but as it stands it’s a custodial product. Happy to revise this once we see an actual implementation of unilateral exit and more operators and LSPs, but it’s just the honest reality today.

I think I will trust the Bugle that I shouldn't trust the Bugle. Should I trust myself? 🤔

Listened again, 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Quantum is a fake and gay VC scam until it can factor a random three digit integer. Until then my young kids are smarter.

As a pioneer, going to Bitcoin Meetups builds culture locally. Michigan and Michiana have several to attend, Southwest Michigan meetup in Benton Harbor is one of the finest. Third Thursday every month at Dwellers co working space 630pm. Private location and you can BYOB.

HAPPY Uptober! Anyone not enjoying it is a lame bear

The conviction of the pioneer is not so easily shaken. Most issues around Bitcoin are laughably inconsiquential to those building on the frontier. The further one separates from fiat the more free they will be.

👍🏻🫡 Thanks for the Fed acknowledgment, classy move

Did you know you can buy @npub1vpx9596du… coffee on localbitcoiners.com? Stock up on the best coffee you can buy with Bitcoin! Also, come hang out with us at the V4V Summit at Chicago Bitcoin Collective in September and buy coffee in person!

Great vibes

This entire podcast is loaded with valuable takeaways. Worth listening to twice. So damn good! Personally I resonated with the discussion on producing high quality consumable products that can't be recreated because nature is intimately involved. I feel the same way about breeding and growing cannabis.

👍🏻👍🏻🫡

Interesting how the data on chain folks are the biggest maxis. #40hpw

👍🏻🫡👍🏻

A shining example of why this is one of the best Bitcoin podcasts out there. Deep thoughts continue long after listening.

What information is accessible to Google and Apple when using tor on Mobile? I've heard there is a lot of data that is still accessible.
