Last Notes npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Earlier this year at Bitcoin Medellín, I watched one of the best Bitcoin presentations I'd ever seen. It was delivered by Tom Benner (head of product at Lunar Rails), a name you may not be familiar with, but someone who has a firm grasp on Bitcoin's potential to change the world. Tom's presentation drew from the work of David R. Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D, author of the landmark book Power vs. Force. In Power vs. Force, Dr. Hawkins lays out the map of human consciousness, which groups our psychological, spiritual, and emotional states into three paradigms: survival, reason/integrity, and spiritual. These different states exist on different frequencies and these frequencies can be calibrated via kinesiology, according to Dr. Hawkins. The frequency at which people, institutions, ideas, and physical entities exists can be calibrated via the methodology Dr. Hawkins lays out in the book. And Dr. Hawkins shares the consciousness frequency/level of people like Gandhi as well as concepts like capitalism and communism in the book. One thing he did't calibrate, though, was money. This is where Tom's work comes in. Tom has worked with kinesiologists to calibrate both Bitcoin and fiat currencies, and he's found that Bitcoin exists at the frequency of love, while fiat currencies calibrate around the frequency of fear. In this podcast episode, Tom breaks this all down in greater detail, and we discuss the implications of his findings for the world. Of the hundreds of articles I've written and podcast episodes I've created, I believe that this is one of the most important pieces of content I've ever taken part in creating. Enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npO_kKh6fJE&t=575s npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Got it.

Alexandra Navarro, who was also present at the event, reinforced Almond’s point about Bitcoin and financial inclusion, citing evidence from her work as Paystand.org’s Chief Impact Officer. And H. E. Bilal Bin Saqib explained why Pakistan 🇵🇰 has created a strategic bitcoin reserve.

In 2022, he launched @nprofile…uu29, which enabled Africans to use bitcoin via feature phones. Years prior, he created Exonumia, open-source technology through which Bitcoin texts could be translated into various African languages. And recently, he launched http://mantra.press, a #Nostr client that serves as a decentralized translation management tool. I recently caught up with KG to get a walkthrough of how Mantra works. We also talked about surviving this era of Bitcoin software vulnerabilities, building despite setbacks, and why he isn't going anywhere, despite the challenges we're currently facing in the Bitcoin space.

In the clip below, Lyudmyla explains what transnational repression is and why it's so important that we push back on policies that enable it.

In my conversation with Robert, we discussed these topics as well as how Kenya has been primed for broader Bitcoin adoption thanks not only to the new law but to the foundation for Bitcoin that's been laid in the country by grassroots initiatives and companies like Gridless, @nprofile…sjtp, and @nprofile…kkyd (among many others). According to Robert, broader Bitcoin adoption in Kenya can lead to the country as a whole becoming more sovereign and less reliant on foreign loans. But for that to happen, a certain amount of coordination must happen between public and private institutions, which is something that Robert has been dedicating much of his time and energy to as of late. As Robert wrote in a piece he recently shared with me, Kenya is "at the threshold," and what comes next regarding Bitcoin adoption will play a major role in shaping the country's future. Luckily for Kenya, it has people like Robert advocating for Bitcoin and connecting the dots so that more and more of his countrypeople can benefit from it.

I’ve watched it a few times in the last few weeks. Absolutely mindblowing. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva I was, yes. A few minutes after I made the post, my balances came back. Not sure what was going on npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Keep up the great work! npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Bitcoin tends to attract people who are either looking for a way out of a tough situation or looking to make said type of situation better. Kelvin Makini, founder of @nprofile…zvrd, is this type of person. As an alchemist of sorts, he's transforming waste into beautiful glassware and earning bitcoin in the process. And his indefatigable spirit makes me believe he's just getting started in his journey as both an entrepreneur and a community leader. It was an honor to help Kelvin tell his story on behalf of @nprofile…vsc4. #nevent1q…pcet npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva I can name many more than that. Sven is correct. @nprofile…wevy runs one. To name a second one, there’s another in South Africa that the Bitcoin Ekasi project uses.

It did so in a underhanded manner, as the vote on the measure was scheduled just before summer recess and not all of the members of parliament (MPs) were present for it. The measure passed but was met with significant backlash from MPs as well as cybersecurity experts and human rights defenders who felt the way in which the vote was conducted was unethical. One of the human rights defenders who's been working diligently to stop Chat Control measures in the EU and who spoke out against the manner in which the Chat Control 1.0 vote was conducted was @nprofile…a2xp, presidents of the Open Dialogue Foundation. I recently caught up with Lyudmyla to discuss the details of what happened around the Chat Control 1.0 vote, what she is doing to stop the Chat Control 2.0 measure (the vote for which is scheduled for September), and why it's essential that we stop governments around the globe from implementing a digital ID system. We also discussed a report on transnational financial repression that she recently published via the Hoover Institute with Jorge Jraissati, dangerous AI data sharing practices, and why it's essential that the good guys/white hats have access to the same frontier AI models that ill-intentioned hackers do. Finally, Lyudmyla shares a number of ways you can help in the fight she's leading to help keep our digital data private. Enjoy the interview, and please consider giving Lyudmyla a hand. I've included resources in the show notes. https://blossom.primal.net/134e3c32548915589bc5e8bb6ce4a96e5f9dfc6586cec85df408aa6838af640b.png https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWnEarTDVnk npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Practice safe nsecs. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva NY gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman tells @npub1key…lt3h crowd he’ll end the #BitLicense if elected governor and says New York will no longer be the financial capital of the world if it doesn’t embrace #Bitcoin and crypto.

The @nprofile…efkk community leader and instructor in the Surfer Kids project is looking to set an example for what someone who comes from a disadvantaged background can accomplish if they put their mind to it. But Akhona also knows that he can't do it alone. Thus far, the Bitcoin Ekasi and broader South African Bitcoin community has supported him, but it's time for the global #Bitcoin and #triathlon communities to get behind him, as well. So, in this interview, not only will you learn Akhona's story as well as the details of the efforts he's making to become a world-class athlete, but you'll also learn about the small but important things you can do to support him. Enjoy the interview, and please help be the wind at Akhona's back as he takes on this heroic endeavor! https://blossom.primal.net/7bf66f35156de5f4aed88421d65c80becd6b1a13be83e3656f4cf0588d2dc56c.jpg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcReG_Mj4is npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva I crunched some numbers to get a sense of what a minimum wage income and the median family income in the U.S. would look like if they'd increased as much as the the price of gold has increased since the U.S. left the gold standard in 1971. The results were both quite sobering and highly indicative of why the U.S. is facing such staggering wealth inequality today. #naddr1qv…rxvl npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Many thanks to @nprofile…3l0a for sharing a link to my recent newsletter on Freedom Tech in Southeast Asia!

Earlier this month, the government issued notices to Telegram and Signal asking them to explain why the apps allow users to post messages without providing their phone numbers. The government also recently directed WhatsApp to freeze the rollout of a new username feature, citing that it could increase online fraud. #India 🇮🇳 #privacy #opensource https://www.reuters.com/world/india/india-issues-notice-telegram-signal-concerns-over-usernames-source-says-2026-07-03/ npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva ♥️ npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Jesus.

It was quite clear to me after speaking with them that they do the work they do in Chiang Mai, Thailand 🇹🇭 with open minds and open hearts and that they believe deeply in Bitcoin as a tool of empowerment, especially for vulnerable communities. In this first part of a three-part series for @nprofile…lydp, I tell the story of how Fai and Kostro’s respective work in the food delivery business played a role in their finding one another, which ultimately led to them cooking together.

Thanks! npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Happy 250th, America! 🇺🇸 If we’re to celebrate more milestones like this, open-source must win. Let us proceed together apace. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Yes, he missed that. He’s had some monster saves otherwise, though. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Ghana’s goalie, tho npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Utter silence, if you will. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Brutality npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Wild npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Never mind. #nevent1q…708f npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Insane. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Oh my goodness 🇭🇷 npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva 😂 All of us yelling at each other doesn’t count. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva I’ve come to like how quiet things get in the bear market. It’s easier to focus and build. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva I sat down with @nprofile…w2ua to discuss the impact Bitcoin might have on the world ten years from now for the 2036 issue of @nprofile…wvc3. In approaching the conversation, I was excited to hear Jeff's forecast for what a world transformed by Bitcoin over the course of the next decade might look like. What Jeff offered wasn't a prediction, though. Instead, he recommended that, if we want a world transformed by Bitcoin, we become active participants this new system NOW as opposed to passive bystanders waiting for the world to change. In other words, the degree to which Bitcoin succeeds by 2036 will be a consequence of the decisions that each of us makes in each passing moment, and the piece below offers some key insights regarding what to keep in mind while making those decisions. Enjoy! https://bitcoinmagazine.com/print/the-2036-issue-the-future-is-now-words-of-wisdom-from-jeff-booth npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Totally npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva No, sir, I cannot 😂 npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva 👀 npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva 🤝 npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva It’s sad to see but I think they’ve more than earned the benefit of the doubt here when it comes to whatever compelled them to do this. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Yup. Just used it the other day. It’s great. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Noted. Thank you for the thoughtful response. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Sounds like you have your mind made up about me, my friend. All the best to you 🤝 npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Not sure what that has to do with the Mechanic video and I’m not an employee of Bitcoin Magazine. Here and there, I contribute articles on important issues, like the Samourai case. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva On it 🫡 npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Wow. This is bad. Will share. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Thanks. I’ve had someone share that with me. I don’t agree with the framing at all and I find the argument disingenuous. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Even more interesting that the algo won a NIST competition. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Super interesting. Thank you for sharing! npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Yeah, and even if there was a pump it would likely be short lived. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Thank you, Aaron. That helps. I figured it was something along those lines but was struggling to wrap my head around it. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva I get the sense that this is the case. The main thing I wanted to learn is what we’d be changing the PoW algorithm to, and I still haven’t gotten that answer either here or on X. I can’t imagine not knowing what such a proposed change would look like beforehand. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Totally. They want it to happen without having to bear the brunt of the blowback. Did you know that it’s one of Peter Thiel’s companies (Persona) that they’re contracting to do the KYC? npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Seems that way to me, too. npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva Thank you, my friend 🙏 Much appreciated! npub14ad23x8g6yak4mm6nad9umm7grq0ckhf4s70svq4wn5fgjywf9es9vxvet frankcorva 😂
