But you’ve discovered fresh organic food that’s healthy, and you want to share this knowledge to improve the lives of your neighbors. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino There are 6 branches of government of differing levels of equality: npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino In a world drowning in debt and inflation imagine a small coastal community where the economy is strong because bitcoin is the local currency. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Bitcoin isn't real! It's not physical! npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino https://blossom.primal.net/162f5ecacfe0664ea1cbfa2fbe8832e60154209bd6ef34afd75049f1045a6dbf.jpg npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino I trust you recorded all those zaps so you can calculate the capital gains and report them to the IRS next April then send them a fiat check. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Everyone in Bitcoin is telling you to hodl. Nobody is telling you to spend... 😬 npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Culture is upstream from politics. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino “Good news children -– your father has ordered us all iPhones.” npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino In just 6 months, BofA recommended bitcoin ETFs, Morgan Stanley launched its own bitcoin ETF, and Goldman Sachs filed for one. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino If the military-financial-multinational-industrial complex that is today’s American empire collapsed… npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino An incredible story of human endurance. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino In the 1970s, Austrian-American psychologist Walter Mischel gave kids a choice: eat one marshmallow now, or wait 15 minutes and get two. Some waited, others didn’t — and the children who waited tended to perform better in adulthood in multiple facets of life. The ability to delay gratification, or exercise a low time preference mindset, wasn’t just a childhood quirk — it was an indicator of long-term success. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino I just set up my new hardware wallet. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Keep swimming against the current. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino The National Debt npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Imagine trying to predict today’s world from yesterday. Now imagine trying to predict tomorrow’s world from today. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino If governments can ‘print’ their own currencies, they can pay arms manufacturers, foot soldiers, and contractors endlessly to wage endless wars. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ₿ npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Surveillance does not need to arrest everyone. It only needs to make everyone feel arrestable. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino The national debt just hit $39T. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Small town living. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino SQUARE TO AUTO-ENABLE BITCOIN PAYMENTS FOR MILLIONS OF SELLERS npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino I used to bring up bitcoin in conversations so that I could try and convince people about it… npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino 33 years ago today, Eric Hughes published the Cypherpunk Manifesto. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino “Bitcoin is punk rock money.” npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Most people think inflation is just "prices going up." npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Rah rah, vodio do! npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Yes, visit Big River Beach and gaze up river — you’ll see the tops of redwoods, some are around my cabin. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Bitcoin isn’t an investment. It’s not a stock. It’s not something that needs government approval. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino AI will soon be able to generate anything digital: text, images, video, even whole identities. In that world, what can you still trust? npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ₿ npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Bitcoin's been pitched as digital gold for 17 years. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Once you wake up to the fact that the world hasn’t operated with “money” since 1971, things start to make sense. When you realize that, instead of money, the world operates with currency—tokens created as debt and used as a proxy for money—the causes of wealth inequality and social unrest become apparent. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino That’s a great reply. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino From Scott Melker: npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Most people still operate under a schoolbook illusion that banks take deposits and lend them out. The truth is far stranger: banks don’t lend existing money; they create new money. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Much of the angst in the national zeitgeist these days centers around economic uncertainty—like it’s just a bad roll of the dice. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Inflation, often dismissed as a natural economic phenomenon, is a subtle tax on your time and energy. Every hour you work, every ounce of effort you expend, is converted into a currency that loses purchasing power over time. This is the debt-based financial system. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino https://blossom.primal.net/c55a78376958a7e72c7a6ba6bf31a28ac1fe5ca2668c605dbd6eb2755223e441.png npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino According to Jed it was sunny. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino It was a on a sunny Saturday in town that Jed realized the world he’d always known had gone forever and that the future was here to stay. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Politics is there to distract us from the bankers. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino “Good morning, America, how are you? Say, don't you know me? I'm your native son…” npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Hmmm…not sure that’s quite accurate but if you’re happy with dollars carry on. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Much of the angst in the national zeitgeist these days centers around economic uncertainty—like it’s just a bad roll of the dice. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino YES—we don’t want open borders letting hundreds of thousands enter the U.S. undocumented each year. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino I don’t have anything to hide… npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino I just dropped $57 on one large pizza. Even for Mendocino, that’s wild inflation in action. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino https://blossom.primal.net/7687ee359baa0b5f5eeff75aeb3e47068a25892ddf22c3d630e6ce7da2a3f3d6.jpg npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino I used to think the ‘idea’ that is America was in jeopardy after Jan 6, after the financial crisis, after 9/11, after Iran Contra, after Watergate, after Vietnam, after JFK, after The Manhattan Project. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino https://blossom.primal.net/727b59433863f33fe797759446906ffb0e1bee1f6d0d8ddf0c133d6a3c608b7d.jpg npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ₿ npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Agreed. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino 99% of us just want to live quietly, raise our kids, love our people and chase our dreams in peace. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Inflation, often dismissed as a natural economic phenomenon, is in reality a subtle tax on your time and energy. Every hour you work, every ounce of effort you expend, is converted into currency that loses purchasing power over time due to deliberate policy decisions. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Thanks. I appreciate the follow up. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino When Europeans arrived, Native American populations were overwhelmed. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Yes. I’ve spoken to a few merchants. The reaction is often “Really. That’s interesting.” Then they return to their busy fiat lives. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino No but that’s a good idea. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Frankly…useless so far. But at least the locals keep hearing the word ‘bitcoin’ over and over. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino 🇨🇭 Lugano, Switzerland has emerged as a rare example of citywide bitcoin adoption, where bitcoin is used for everything from buying coffee to paying taxes, purchasing from local merchant and tuition. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino If someone paid me for mowing their lawn in bitcoin and then I went to a local farmer and bought some raw milk with some of my bitcoin. Then say the farmer went to someone else and paid in bitcoin for some orchard grass for some of their horses…only some people would know about these transactions. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Looking for a last minute gift for your kids, your nieces, nephews? npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ₿ npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Feel optimistic. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Turn on, tune in, drop out. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino From Adam Livingston | @AdmBLiv: npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Talk to someone you disagree with. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino When you understand that at its core it is economic insecurity that exacerbates social divisions you’ve taken the first step. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino it is time that the U.S. recognizes that the world is filled with people who have different cultures, governance structures and priorities. This is okay. While we don't have to agree with any or all of these things, it is not our job to change them and we should find common ground where possible and use that as a jumping off point for mutually beneficial trade. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino “I Yes, but have you paid your quarterlies?” npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino For god’s sake…someone make him stop!! npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino https://blossom.primal.net/1cbdb4fee6ef59b6ade83a8bd3ac7d3c50bf6851d40a4d25c6a95eee22b3a473.jpg npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ...it feels like a small gift from another age. A place where you can still smell the seasons, and the people around you aren't just pixels. A place where the past, the present, and the future still breathe together. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino The future happens here first -- California is America's coming attraction. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ₿ npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino That’s all very well but just exchange dollars for bitcoin and keep it in self custody. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ₿ npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ₿ npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino ₿ npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino It’s Epstein, right? npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino Help make bitcoin everyday money. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino A rainy night in Mendocino… npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino The tool doesn’t own you.
