Shoot, Survive & Lawyer Up – Epi-3705

Boosting aging! Fuck yeah!

Jeez now I want to kill myself before I get implanted. Wtf... Thanks for another rabbit hole to go down. Great job!

Thanks for continuing to bring us consistent, balanced coverage on Bitcoin news. Still my fave show. My AI friend agrees that not only is your show “X” but it is “Y” lol. Even if the Core code change ends up being a bit of a nothing burger, I think a lot of users have been swayed to run Knots by the elitist heavy handedness the Core devs came across with. Shutting down discourse etc. That and Peter Todd’s supersized ego and smug face. Anyway here’s some sats. Thank you for the great content.

Good tips on property selection in particular.

Fantastic episode @npub1clk6vc9xh… ! Good stuff. I think it behooves us all to get the rails in place BEFORE we need them. To be able to transact value and have seamless private conversion capability between BTC and whatever goods or currencies we need in a pinch, at any moment, on short notice.

Hey Dave good episode. Here’s a zap for this and some past episodes that I’ve been listening to while driving. Hey on the El Salvador thing, have you heard any comment from Max and Stacey? I’m wondering what their take is on what is effectively indefinite leadership. I’ve also been thinking based on Bukele seeming to be a solid leader, if maybe this is the only route he could see to stop the country falling back to the hell it was only 5 years ago under new leadership.

Great episode. My intro to your channel. I like the cut of your jib. @oshi is a cool dude.

Very thoughtful presentation of “normalcy as governance”. It’s an important topic. Having attended both the Ottawa convoy and the blockade of the highway in Coutts, I’ve seen what financial repression can do to families overnight.

Knowing the Australian government, they’re going to use the ruse of tax CGT refunds to create a nice handy registry of all Australian BTC owners, ready for when they implement an unrealized capital gains tax after the next pump. Don’t fall for it Aussie holders!

Brilliant

Great recap of lessons learned over 100 episodes.

Wow, what an interesting and immaculately crafted episode. Your questions and the dialogue that arose as a result of them really crystallized my understanding of reputation and web of trust concepts. Pure Bitcoin. I’d say pure gold but that metaphor is so 2008. This content is fantastic @npub1clk6vc9xh…

Good show. It’s notable that neither the Square Bitcoin story nor the BRINGIN story about the Estonian tradfi integration project make any mention of the need for governments to loosen up on tax reporting rules and implementation of deminimus rules regarding spending Bitcoin. Seems like a good way to mass KYC people that have Bitcoin to spend. I dunno….

Damn what a banger episode Dave. You really encapsulated what so many people are feeling this week. The world feels like it’s on warp speed. Bracing myself for some 1960’s style civil disobedience. We are no longer represented in Congress and Parliaments in a way that it can be avoided. Buckle up.

Wow! Great episode, and Eric was a super interesting and knowledgeable guest @dannyknowles .This one is worth a second listen. There was so much info jammed in here I felt like Neo after he learned Kung Fu in a single download.

Great episode, despite the somber mood that has settled across the land. It’s hard not to be affected by it. Thanks for bringing us stories that the legacy media is intentionally suppressing, and for calling out their gross embellishments and glaring omissions. Have a great Friday

Fun episode. Made me laugh out loud a couple of times on my way back from a distant work site. Sun’s letter was hilarious. And the ECB story gave me a real Pimpy in my Cippilone. Have a good weekend Dave.

Good episode. Thank you sir.

Hey Chris, great episode. I think your rebuttal of JL’s criticisms of Bitcoin was right on point. Another thing to consider is that, even for someone born in 1971, it was still 1989 before that person left high school, 1992-1994 before they exited post-secondary, and perhaps another ten years after that before their income achieved a level that started generating any positive flow. Especially if student debt was part of the equation. By 2004 we were already only 4 years short of the GFC. The last group of people that made it ten years into their careers before the Nixon shock were born in 1937. Makes your head spin.

Awesome episode. The points discussed don’t just defend Bitcoin, but put on their heads so many of the ideas and definitions that have become norms in the fight against fiat. Hyperbitcoinization is really already here in many ways. And so is hyperinflation.

Great thesis. Highly likely. Banks and fund managers” and banks’ financial engineer’s incentives make it nearly certain. And the powers that be won’t blame the speculators. They will blame Bitcoin, providing justification for a 1602.

Thanks for this...

"I'm not techy, but I'm morally aligned with bitcoin / freedom tech." this is the quote of the year! @npub1ahe2832lq… great interview... Another thing that thar the interviewer doesn't get is how easy it is to verify identy is using the network affect, plus verifying the public key (npub) for instance if you have a friend you know and trust and they are following someone you can see that person is real. If you have hundreds or thousands following then you can assume that is verified. Most fake ones will have very few followers. Hope this helps.

Great rip! We're on a precupice for sure.

@odell talking spending bitcoin... I offer synthetic oils and lubricants and car care products for bitcoin! @lubedirect

Great one and yes I'm madder than hell!

This, this is why I stay humble and stack Sats! Thanks for this.

Great one! Love the talk about the Ai overshoot. I too believe that will occur

It’s so cool that you guys started a show. Congrats.
