Ah, another detail I didn't expect. Good idea then to use a birth center, a tub won't be convenient in a motor home, maybe could even break the frame!
On another note, am i imagining things or is there something sketchy about almost every business in Scottsdale?

Its hard to find Christian midwives, and yes, you probably need to travel for one. You could also have a doula, but that may be an unnecessary expense. Birth centers are great, but being 3 hours away may not be practical. Ask if you can get a backup midwife nearby and rent a tub (some tubs are cheap enough to be disposable) in case you need to do it at home. Your birth enter doula can travel to you during labor. Your husband can set up the tub, all you need is a 10 or 15 foot potable water RV hose and an adapter from the shower head pipe to garden hose attachment. I can give an Amazon link for that if you need it.

Obviously being impaired isn't from sin, but nobody should WANT to be impaired, any more than anyone should WANT to be slave to sin.
We seek out churches to be healed of bondage to the flesh, but we find ambivalence of sin at best and embracing of sin at worst. Few love their neighbor enough to call evil for what it is, we let everyone hide their light under a bushel. We hate and call it love.

BIP177 is a memetic attack on the ethos of Bitcoin, asserting a centralized technocratic authority by "the bitcoin devs". This is not a code change, it is a decree by Fiat. Never once left open for discussion, its simply asserted as a test of power. The amount of credibility given to this "stylistic changex should be zero. The level of respect it's authors and promulgators are showing to the true power of Bitcoin, the HODLers and node runners, is the amount of authority they should be afforded: zero.

Real estate is powerful because congress forced banks to treat it as low risk, which I suppose is good all things considered, but you can lever against excess equity in your existing property to buy more real estate, which creates a wealth snowball. Its this same snowball public companies like MSTR are taking advantage of with bitcoin. It's the banks that need to realize the excess equity of bitcoin holdings that will truly cause the snowball, maybe even without needing to loan to individuals. This could lead to hyperinflation of the dollar, despite any other factors, if they are allowed to do it

2025-05-18 00:46:49 GMT

Peer-to-Peer is not necessarily censorship resistant. The multi-star topology and outbox model of nostr may be better suited to a resilient bitcoin network, better than the graph topology of peer-to-peer, and provide separation of concerns in "node-only" bitcoin transaction rules and block verification implementations. #naddr1qq…lejz

# Reclaiming Digital Cash: From State Co-option to Privacy Rebellion
## Introduction
Over the past two decades, digital cash has evolved from a theoretical construct into a globally adopted phenomenon. Yet, many overlook the possibility that its mainstream success may serve long-term objectives of the very institutions it was meant to circumvent.
This post explores a strategic hypothesis: that the U.S. surveillance state may have seeded or co-opted the foundation of digital currency infrastructure via the cypherpunk community. The goal? To slowly transition from untraceable paper currency to a programmable, auditable, and ultimately surveilled monetary system—under the guise of freedom.
---
## The Strategic Hypothesis
### Phase 1: Strategic Patience and Conditioning
Unable to impose digital cash directly due to public resistance over privacy, the U.S. government allegedly pivoted toward a long-game strategy. It allowed privacy-focused communities to champion a transparent ledger-based currency system—Bitcoin. By seeding the idea indirectly, the state positioned itself to benefit from its organic adoption without taking credit or blame.
### Phase 2: Legitimizing the Ledger
By allowing the digital asset to gain credibility and adoption through free-market enthusiasm, the state passively allowed the dollar's reserve currency role to erode. Institutions and foreign states began to treat the ledger as a neutral settlement layer. Its scarcity and resistance to inflationary debasement gave it a commodity-like appeal.
### Phase 3: Regulatory Enclosure
Once the infrastructure reached mass adoption, the state could move to:
- Criminalize opaque financial transactions
- Mandate surveillance of large transfers
- Use analytics to retroactively enforce compliance
The result would be a system where freedom was the bait, and surveillance the cage.
---
## Probability Assessment
- **Motives**: Highly plausible. History confirms the U.S. financial and intelligence complex seeks maximal transactional transparency.
- **Means**: Plausible. NSA and others had early involvement in cryptographic technologies foundational to cryptocurrencies.
- **Execution**: Co-option patterns already observable (delisting privacy coins, surveillance firm partnerships).
- **Outcome**: Technologically feasible. Politically dependent on crisis exploitation and public compliance.
Estimated likelihood of partial or evolving realization: **60–75%**.
---
## Turning the Trap Into a Tool
The co-opted infrastructure can still be reclaimed. Here’s how:
### 1. Fork the Narrative
Promote self-sovereignty and privacy as civic virtues. Redefine privacy as defense, not defiance.
### 2. Abstract Away Surveillance
Adopt privacy wrappers and obfuscation layers:
- zk-SNARKs
- CoinJoin
- Stealth addresses
- Ring signatures
### 3. Decentralize Access
Use peer-to-peer exchanges, voucher systems, and physical wallet distribution to prevent chokepoint control.
### 4. Exploit Jurisdictional Arbitrage
Operate across legal grey zones. Fragment enforcement by decentralizing legal risk.
### 5. Build Parallel Institutions
Develop economies and reputational systems outside centralized trust models. Normalize operational security.
### 6. Pollute Surveillance
Use data pollution, key rotation, and false trails to overwhelm analytic systems.
---
## Conclusion
Surveillance relies on predictability, scale, and compliance. The infrastructure of digital cash may have been co-opted, but its potential for resistance remains. Freedom is reclaimed not by confrontation, but by obfuscation, misdirection, and the creation of parallel systems.
Let the tools they built become the seeds of their obsolescence.

The Triffin Dilemma
If you’re trying to understand why the global financial system is inherently unstable, the Triffin Dilemma explains a lot.
-- The Problem --
When a country’s currency becomes the global reserve (e.g., the U.S. dollar), it takes on two conflicting roles:
1. Domestic stability - controlling inflation, protecting purchasing power.
2. Global liquidity - supplying enough currency for international trade and reserves.
To supply the world with enough dollars, the U.S. must run persistent trade and current account deficits. This creates global dollar liquidity, but at the cost of rising debt, asset bubbles, and long-term monetary instability at home.
Over time, these deficits undermine trust in the dollar - the very trust that makes it usable as a reserve currency. That’s the core of the Triffin Dilemma: you can’t serve both roles indefinitely without breaking something.
-- The Solution --
Bitcoin doesn’t face this problem. It’s not tied to the monetary policy of any nation. Supply is fixed, issuance is predictable, and consensus rules are enforced by the network, not central banks.
A neutral, non-sovereign asset like Bitcoin avoids the structural failure baked into fiat reserve currencies. It doesn’t require trade deficits to function globally. It doesn’t need inflation to stay alive. And it doesn’t depend on trust in any government.
The Triffin Dilemma isn’t a bug in the system - it’s a consequence of the system. Fiat reserve currencies are fundamentally at odds with long-term stability. Bitcoin offers an exit.

The printing press was always a centralizing force. Before the printing press was the town crier. Anyone could stand up and shout over him. No-one could prevent a paper from printing what they would.
The paper brought with it credibility, one like the Jerk espouses when he finds his name in the phone book; Undeserved credibility. Big money and big government love to direct this credibility, it (with the schools) use this credibility to influence people and seize power.
Social media reversed these centuries of centralization, but quickly the chokepoint was identified in the board room and control was restored to the empire.
Decentralized social media, alongside decentralized money, restores free speech.
Free speech has not been with us since Gutenberg.

Ever wonder why protestant religions are practically all Zionist? Christian radio and colleges have been dominated by Jews unashamedly. They preach Judeo-Christianity, not the New Testament. They dominate the airwaves, seizing a position of benevolence toward christians rather than humility toward Christ. In short, Christian focused religious education and media have been hijacked and nobody noticed.
There are very few Christians in America, despite popular opinion. Are the Jews to blame? I say no, I blame Christians for being weak sheep, leaving a vacuum for opportunists. If it weren't the Jews, it would be another religion. The Jews have the highest incentive to influence Christianity, out of perceived self-preservation. We are called to be as harmless as sheep, but wise as serpents; not the opposite.

The midwife should be there as an advocate (if you already paid for her), don't expect a refund just because you need a hospital. At a minimum have a doula with you. Do not use the "hospital supplied" midwives or doulas, the incentives do not permit them to do their jobs. Make sure you are spirituality compatible with your midwife or doula, the last thing you need is to get into an argument with them. During labor, a born-again women can instinctually sense spiritual darkness in people who are nearby.
