Bitcoin Precept

Disappointing end for Barca. I would have loved to have seen that young kid perform in a semifinal. At the same time I suppose I'm happy for Mbappe to get a go at UCL title before he leaves for Madrid this summer. Dortmund will not be easy. PSG fans never got to the final with Messi/Neymar/Mbappe.
In any case I'm pretty sure whoever wins the City/Real quarter tomorrow will be favored to go on as champion

I have found a lot of truth to the Buddhist teaching that desire is the root of all suffering.
As it pertains to earthly goals, it seems desire for the future to be different is a key component of drive, ambition, intention, impact...
It's hard to reconcile these two aspects of the self sometimes.

Hey Bitcoin fam - I want to post a brief update as I start my Junior year of Bitcoin. I enrolled in this university of life back in 2021, without realizing how much I still had to learn. Becoming aware of the Matrix, being "fortunate" enough to be pulled from it's seductive comforts, was an incredibly painful experience.
But through my education I have found more meaning and purpose in my daily existence than ever before. I have met amazing people, studied innumerable rabbit holes of technical and social bodies of knowledge, learned how to take care of my body (shed 25 pounds of fat).
Denominating your life in BTC, hodling, and making the next right decision to continue building order in your life is a beautiful thing. A low time-preference combined with being gratefulAF for this moment now is an astoundingly beautiful thing.
My freshman year of Bitcoin was highlighted by purging shitcoinery and stinking fiat thinking from my brain. The amount of deprogramming and reprogramming required to adapt to life outside the Matrix is substantial. You have to put in the work. I also became an @npub132e…zmdh @npub1az9…m8y8 & coldcard superfan in 2022, connected with my personal Bitcoin hero Craig Raw, and honed my cold storage skills in a 1 vbyte environment. Priceless.
My sophomore year of Bitcoin was highlighted by both an epic bear market to stack, getting to shake @npub1w69…zltw hand at a Bitcoin Meetup, as well as the opportunity to get involved with The Bitcoin Product Community and then eventually the @npub17ty…3mgl project. I connected with @npub1tv8…7wn2, learned how to use Github, and brought my project management expertise to their project in support of the monumental 0.7.0 release (It's reproducible forever, Laura!). That is an amazing team of amazing humans, not the least of which was @npub1rfd…7wrt (the nicest dev in Bitcoin) @npub177z…dp8e (the 2nd nicest dev in Bitcoin) and MarcG. I look forward to seeing what they bring to the space in coming years. PS the Team Coldcard vs Team Seedsigner saber rattling is fun and healthy, but we’re all on the same team at the end of the day. <3
I am happy to announce at the start of my junior year of Bitcoin that I’ve been accepted by @npub1jkm…crvd and @npub1der…xzpc into the @npub10pe…n34f organization as an official volunteer. In this role, I’ll be helping their new Head of Fiat Operations (not a boring guy!) and the rest of the team to execute projects in support of the amazing mission and vision of OpenSats. This is going to be fun.
I’ve got a long way yet to go on my Bitcoin journey. It feels almost like a second life altogether. Every step thus far has been meaningful and I can’t wait to see what the future may bring.
STAY HUMBLE AND STACK SATS

You say you want freedom - are you willing to fight for it? Life is a competition for energy resources and for the right to exist.
You have no fundamental rights, despite what human social abstractions may lead you to believe.
The base layer of everything is energy. You have ultimate freedom to navigate the world from within the maze of existing ordered power structures, but you have no freedom to expect those power structures to kindly step aside for you.

He says when the ETFs get approved every advisor will put 1% of client assets into Bitcoin "as a hedge". I'm sending him Parker Lewis' presentation "Bitcoin is not a hedge".

The obvious choice is to generate seeds offline by picking words out of a thoroughly mixed Entropia set, computing the checksum with an airgapped seedsigner (inside a back seat faraday cage of course), then load this seed into a coldcard, apply long passphrase, incinerate the closed firmware seedsigner before exiting the vehicle, visit unchained.com from a single use Linux laptop, and setup vault key #1.
Repeat x2 for optimal multi vendor unchained setup without funding shitcoining wallet companies.
This is the synthesis of everything I learned listening to Bitcoin Review Pod over the last year. ♥️💪🏼

Adulthood is basically a series of people letting you down one by one until you realize everyone is in their own world doing their best to navigate life. At some point you stop taking things personally when people let you down and realize it's your own expectations of other people that ultimately drive your disappointment. Expectations are premeditated resentments.

I appreciate your response, i just think if you had an extended dialogue with @npub17ty…3mgl he might have a different opinion about whether using a secure element is “additive”. It was invoking this argument that to me felt like a lack of steelmanning the Seedsigner perspective.
Even with coldcard you’re probably storing an unencrypted analog seed phrase backup somewhere right? Steel plate or otherwise, so the argument that having seedQR laying around as a point of insecurity doesn’t feel fully thought through IMO.
As a tool, Seedsigner offers a unique FOSS DIY solution that can play an integral role in many highly thoughtful approaches to cold storage. I won’t casually accept framing that the project is somehow lesser than coldcard (as implied by your statement that secure element is “additive”) when in fact many would disagree with this framing.

What you want is irrelevant. Desire brings suffering and gratification brings emptiness.
All that matters is what you're meant to do, your greater purpose.
Submit to your higher calling without fear of the unknown. Trust yourself to perform under any circumstance. Let go of the pretty desires of flesh and the fears of loss that control your weak mind.
Freedom is born of strength to face these realities with courage.

Respectfully, your post makes assumptions about why people might choose to value Bitcoin. You initially suggested that the ability to move jurisdictions was the "main" value prop. I think that's a highly flawed argument.
Surely some will value that attribute but others may be quite happy and settled in their jurisdiction and simply want debasement protection without the hassle or risk of self custody.
It's up to each individual to create a value judgment against personal opportunity cost of time and energy for everything in their life, including owning, studying, custodying Bitcoin.
If fiat end times are nigh and tyranny abounds sufficiently ominously, they'll adjust their value dials accordingly or get swallowed up.
