Last Notes npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker I had to transfer an old 401k to a new provider. The old provider MAILED me a PHYSICAL CHECK which I then had to MAIL to the new provider The entire process has taken weeks at this rate. No ability for them to send it direct, I had to be the middle man for some reason. Tell me something. Why is this necessary? It’s almost 2027 and I’m stuffing a check with my entire retirement fund in a mailbox hoping it arrives where it needs to, and that it was made out correctly for the receiver to accept it and deposit it into my new account. The technology we have today is decades ahead of the current fiat financial system. It’s honestly pathetic if you ask me. With Bitcoin this entire process could have been done more securely in a matter of minutes. We are so early that it’s going to be painful for so many decades. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Just finished season 2 of sopranos on my first every watch through and this show is so fucking peak I can’t believe I’ve gone this long without watching it npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker HODL ripping pop punk riffs on the TL?

For years, OG whales have told tales of how hard it will be to HODL through times like this , and how much harder it will continue to be I believed them . But I never fully grasped just how accurately they predicted the future, which is now our current moment. Hard times create strong men. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Look up Softwar by Jason Lowery npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker 2 jobs in the last 6 months I have interviewed for that I did not get Think it’s time to start my own company Way easier than getting someone else to give me more money npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Also curious to the why here npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Will your speech be posted somewhere later ? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker The analogy stuck in my head lately Being a bitcoiner is like being Linus waiting for the great pumpkin Always waiting on the next big world shaking event that will send bitcoins price to the moon, instead of just appreciating the festivities happening around you And when it never comes, you just wait for next year https://blossom.primal.net/5fedc3a4b5b94ec6c63e4954f37b7d57ad2a9b390b8d6ff0c5e5ddb0e243e992.gif npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Update, it’s working Prepare for my eventual world domination #nevent1q…983u npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker I bought my own facts drive Once I figure out how to plug it into vscode, I will be able to vibe code so much fucking slop without the artificial limits of credits holding me back Nothing can stop me now https://opensourceeverything.io/ npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker THE BIG PRINT IS COMING WUSSIES HANG ONTO YOUR COCKS https://blossom.primal.net/0f0edd70b60e8464ba8451f5932655174552a0851a7a17217f9529d2cd2cc056.jpg npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Primal 3.0 A whole new world https://blossom.primal.net/aadbc3955d193d9a8bd483dffba647f4fc7332d12ca8e5ee39d4b21bdf9941d9.gif npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker The only thing worse than a journalist is a sports journalist/sports radio host Grown men who sit on their ass for a living talking about how they expect athletes to perform better , throw faster, hit harder , and be better leaders Makes me genuinely disgusted npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Finally the vlog content is returning . The nostr plebs yearn for the vlogs , bro npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker It’s a really stupid hill for them to die on. AI is good for everyone npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker That is a retarded take , sorry npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Trying to spend one hour a day at night doing something with Ai This week I’ve been taking Anthropic’s free courses on working with Claude. They each come with a LinkedIn badge I can put in my profile (don’t judge me, I was late to Bitcoin and still have to work) Last night and today I’ve been designing a resume website for myself to make my resume just ever so slightly more visually appealing and entertaining I’ve added a section where I can display the iPhone app I am also building when it makes its way to the App Store I’ve gotten comfortable using Claude in VScode now which opens up a whole new world of possibility Keep in mind two weeks ago I’d never written a line of code in my life This has been a fun and rewarding experience npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Have you always been this stupid or is this a new thing you’re trying out? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker It’s like one day, he’s on our side, and the next day, he’s a scammer. And it flips back and forth every day npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Just signed up for my first Apple App Store dev account yesterday 🫡🤝 npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Brb gonna start saying this in all my dev team calls npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker I have become a vibe coding expert . Kinda . I’ve built an entire iPhone app for basic data entry and cataloging entirely on local storage in about 4 hours of work It’s probably the most barebones simplest thing one could even conceive of building. And I’m sure seasoned developers would laugh at the accomplishment I feel with the simplicity of what the app can do for what it’s designed for. I’m sure they could tell me a million better ways to do it and things that would make it more usable and fun. But I don’t care. Because here is the truth. I built a working , usable application that solves for a specific problem in my real life. Something I will use , and something I want to share with my friends and family who I know would benefit from using it. In a few weeks at most, I will have a published application, fully functional with plenty of cool features , live on the Apple App Store (that’s the goal, anyway). One week ago, I had never written a line of usable code in my life. I had never pushed a single commit to GitHbub. EVER. Now with AI, I can do things that were never possible to me before. The progress I made in a week is far beyond anything I could have expected. the rate at which I’m learning , picking up new strategies , and evolving a mental framework for building is accelerating at a crazy rapid pace. At this rate, the only limit is my imagination. If I can dream if, I can build it. Onwards. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Bottom signal? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker That being said, if any of the super rich bitcoin OG’s on here want to zap me some sats so I can buy a Max subscription, I’ll try to make it worth your while 😂😂😂😂 npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Really enjoying vibe coding with Claude code so far. I went from knowing basically zero about mobile app development to almost being ready to deploy my first application in just about one week I’m already looking on the horizon for my next idea I want to tackle. Trying to think big picture is tough . Trying to come up with something people will pay for and use is even harder I wish I could justify $200 for the max level subscription but I simply can’t find a way to square the circle and make the case where that money is well spent right now In theory I could develop a business, some software, an app, or SOMETHING that would just need to make $200+ a month to cover the cost of developing it, maybe another $100 for hosting and database needs Feels like I have a sports car I’m building from scratch but not the gasoline it needs to run For now I think I’ll stick to small, manageable, tangible value add ideas that I just can go out and solve without any implications Just to flex the muscle of building , iterating, practicing good product management principles , getting it out in the world, and learning as much as I can along the way It will also have a second order effect of creating a nice little portfolio of examples of how I used AI to build things that will look nice on my resume . In a professional world that will be consumed by AI , having something tangible that I did outside of work on my resume should be a non negotiable. Whatever it may be. I really don’t really know what I’m doing All I know for certain right now is you can just do things. And that is my new personal mantra. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker >stop messing with the Bitcoin protocol >bip 110 changes the protocol ???? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Dam.

Clawi.ai is a great example but it appears to be token heavy/expensive . Would be cool to buy a computer with an open claw agent preloaded and ready to go right out of the box npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Side note; using the higher quality models is almost worth the cost . I still need to draw the line between what is actually worth using a higher quality model versus what is basic housekeeping work that a simple low cost model can handle npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker OpenClaw diary entry; Open claw has been an interesting experience so far. I’ve been using @nprofile…aw3u for a fast plug and play experience since I don’t have the resources or the know how to set up a self hosted one myself. It still needs a lot of trouble shooting but so far I think I’ve gotten into a good rhythm and can work with it well. I’ve been using it to help me draft a bitcoin related business model I’ve been ruminating on for months. It’s helped me actually put pen to paper and flesh out some specifics. So much so that now I’m spending more time questioning if the idea itself is good enough to achieve the mission I’ve identified than planning on how to use OpenClaw to support the operation. To be honest, I feel that I’m hitting a wall running in circles writing the same strategy documents over and over again. I’ll need to actually just build something and get it out in the market to see if it’s any good. I don’t know how much OpenClaw can help once the door is open and I have a product people for which might pay . With Kimi launching a beta of a built in bot this weekend, and OpenAi’s deal with Steinberger, I’m anticipating the “plug and play” element to get a lot better in coming months. That excites me, because it will be that much easier to use. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Running into problems logging in , but somehow it works over cellular data on my phone. won’t work if I’m connected to wifi on computer. Weird! Any ideas ? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Open claw has been fun. I got greedy wanted to maximize the output while minimizing token usage. Last night I had a fully operational Trello integration going. My bot could add tickets, reclassify them, move tickets around, take on tasks based on content within tickets I had written, add comments , come up with new ideas. The whole nine yards. A nice way to work based on my personality. Then I downgraded the operational model to see if he could still add and move tickets around without using that many tokens. That switch basically made my agent braindead , and he forgot he even had API access to the board we made. Can’t do anything now. Back to square one I guess. Trouble shooting is fun. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker I just set one of these up because I’ve wanted to have an agent but have very limited technical knowledge and not enough computing resources to dedicate to my own agent at the moment Entire process was incredibly easy and intuitive , and I’ve already got my bot integrated with a Trello board to assign it tasks while I sleep Shout out to this project because it was exactly was a noob like me needs to dip his feet into the world of Ai agents without dropping hundreds of dollars on equipment first #nevent1q…rauc npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker So we can still go a little lower ?? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker The permanent underclass meme is very real So is bitcoin But something deep in my gut tells me that owning bitcoin will now save you from being in the permanent underclass npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker You didn’t have to do Larry like that 😂 npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Looking forward to the 1rd halving and the two 6th halvings after that 😅 https://blossom.primal.net/2bc28a41d7f27f215170b9df1ae8f93353deeaf2534f854f5d0c33346a7709ed.png npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker https://blossom.primal.net/95b6dc4bbfb1f64e76c45ddc1186afa0f041eb357f0edfadbda8ceccbb3b19d9.jpg npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker My dad just asked if I’m worried about the price falling.

In the past year, your production cost just went up 80% with gold alone. How does that impact your margins? You either hike up your prices , or come up with some crazy idea to not drown in your own blood. Rising prices is a living nightmare for anyone using gold and silver for anything other than a store of value Another reason I keep thinking about; they are imperfect as money , because there are other uses for it That is what makes bitcoin superior. Its only purpose is money. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Do I get 5% off sats if I use code RHR on strike? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Another reason I am sick and tired of Bitcoin Twitter I am sick and tired of people complaining about Bitcoin price action and attributing it entirely to Michael Saylor. This has been happening for YEARS now “Saylor bought Bitcoin, why price go down?”🤪 You’re a fucking idiot You do realize there is a whole world full of influence vectors that will impact Bitcoin’s daily price action, do you? From now on if I see you bitching and moaning about bitcoin being down 5% and thinking Michael Saylor is going to stop that from happening , you’re getting an instant block npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker They didn’t halt silver sales.

Took out $200 in USD for tips. Forty 5 dollar bills. They are just pieces of paper. It’s basically pretend money. Coupons for little activities you can do in certain parts of the world . 10 years ago I would have been nervous holding that much value in my hands at once. Nowadays I can’t stop looking at the paper it’s printed on.

OG hodlers always talk about how hard it is to hodl. How it’s one of the hardest things they’ve ever done, how much pain it involves, how psychologically tormenting it all is. The crazy part is how right they are. I’ve studied bitcoin more this year than I can remember studying anything else in the past decade. At the same time, we are down on the year in terms of growth. I can explain in rough terms why that might be the case now. I can theorize why I think it’s not forever, and why I think bitcoin will continue to grow in the medium to long term. And yet, Hodling is still fucking difficult. Not physically (thanks to hardware), but spiritually . Never being able to silence that voice in your soul that says “but what if you’re wrong? What if everyone is wrong? What if you didn’t consider something? What if some random variable you discounted was actually a bigger threat than you realized?” These thoughts amplify themselves when Bitcoin move sideways for the better part of a year. People start yelling about quantum computing, AI, government regulation, distrust-worthy companies and hardware wallets, China banning Bitcoin for the millionth time. The narrative sentiment flows back and forth like jazz on water, unpredictable and fluid , yet riding the waves and pullbacks of price and liquidity. I run through the thought experiment where I look at my stack and ask myself “what if this were to vanish today?”. Sometimes every week, but lately , almost daily. It would likely turn my 5 year plan into a 10 year plan. It would mean starting over. Reassessing everything I think I know. Rebuild my financial independence from the ground up. It would be like the past year of saving money to stack sats was just erased from history. Going back to buying Vanguard index funds. Am I ok with this outcome? No. Do I anticipate it to happen? No. Have I been wrong before? Yes. Do I need to accept its possibility and be prepared in the event it happens? Yes . This is the risk we all sign up for without knowing it. However, when I go read my old Nostr posts, it helps to remind myself of where my head was at the time. So in a way, this is more of a diary entry to my future self. Reminding me to trust the conviction, and remember the plan. Jack Mallers said this in a recent podcast and it stuck with me. Future you is depending on present day you to execute on what you said yesterday that you would do today. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker This is quickly becoming one of the most impactful books I’ve ever read. I’m only 20% through it and it’s already having a big effect on how I view my own career and responsibilities . I think both bitcoiners and business minded wagies like myself can learn a lot from the insights here. No excuses, total ownership. Anyone else on Nostr already read this masterpiece? https://blossom.primal.net/d67e1b9636b16a8c299b4b797a03f9c89b9e5023f21eb9d5be09b57ab28ce48b.jpg npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker The best part about doing barbell squats with 90% of your body weight for reps is the insanely intense soreness and pain in your legs whenever you stand up and or walk anywhere for the next three days npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Blows my mind that there are still so many “it’s going to zero” Bitcoin haters out there for absolutely no reason Next time someone says this to me I want to scream in their face. Why is it going to zero? What is the basis for your claim? What will that look like? Describe to me the events that will set in motion to trigger nearly $2 trillion to flee bitcoin and move somewhere else. Elaborate on the scenario in which the 9th most valuable asset by market cap on existence somehow goes from number 9 to zero. Go on! How long does that take? Do we all somehow wake up tomorrow and find it’s nuked to 0 overnight? Do you know something I don’t know? Do you know something that some of the smartest minds on the planet somehow haven’t realized? For sake of argument, let’s say it somehow does hit zero. How long does it stay there? Forever? It never goes above $0.00 ever again? What happens to the miners across the globe? How will they react? Will they just shrug their shoulders, turn off the miners, and walk away forever? What happens to the transactions currently awaiting the next block? What happens to the small businesses using as money right at this moment? What happens if bitcoin is worth $0, and I decide to go out and buy as many as I can for $0.01? Let me take a guess as to what lead you to believe that moronic idea; Your ego is hurt. You are jealous. You see thousands of people buying bitcoin, holding it for years, and seeing their net worth skyrocket, with seemingly no effort involved. Meanwhile , you stick to what you thought was good investment advice you for 20 , maybe 30 years ago, and avoid anything that’s perceived as marginally “risky”. Maybe you even heard about bitcoin when it was only a few hundred dollars. “Not for me” , you thought, “too risky. Too complicated.” You think you missed the proverbial boat. Hearing the word “bitcoin” reminds you of all the other times you ‘failed’ in life; all the other risks you didn’t take, all the other adventures you missed out on, all because you were too afraid. You have almost a gut reaction when you hear it come up. Minimize it. Deny it. Criticize it , without basis or any relevant knowledge. Don’t let others jump on the boat you missed out on. If you can’t get on it, why should they? I think THAT scenario is 10,000x more likely than Bitcoin suddenly going to “zero”. npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker They’re still on X trying to figure out what Ethereum does npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker I need an app that I can give my parents as a method of encrypted messaging in the event that AI is trying to spoof me and phish them for money Any Nostr based apps that fit that use case? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Does this mean I am no longer an average pleb?

I’m specifically talking about old school movies. Being able to sharply quote a film from a previous generation or two gives you a level of credence with senior level colleagues that is otherwise unattainable . If you can quote or at least recognize films and TV that the old heads at your company know and love, they start to see you not just as a dumb kid , but as a dumb kid who was raised on a diet of culture they can relate to. I can’t underestimate how far that goes in developing rapport with people much older than you. It’s really a magical thing . Even the most memorable and over quoted lines from older movies lands you major brownie points every time. You’d be surprised how man millennials even can’t quote caddyshack, Ferris bueller, napoleon dynamite, Star Wars, you name it . Whether he did it consciously or not, gotta hand it to my old man for putting me on a steady diet of classic American cinema from a young age npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Good luck getting the rest of the world (outside their jurisdiction) to agree to those terms npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker I’m getting a little sick of strangers telling me their life stories if I’m being honest npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker They make non-Bitcoin themed podcasts ? npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker This is my politics npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker Got tickets to see the Rush reunion tour, I’m fucking hyped npub1u9au7cpsz0wfphwpw3h60ulrxyt9l6qkrk2d9wtckxz6zldgztuqy5j3js SatoshiSkywalker I absolutely need one of these on my wall!
