Streams are the key to nostr

Loading events from a nostr relay is probably the most inconsistent way of loading data I've had to work with, and that's only loading from a single relay. the problem gets exponentially more complicated once you try to load events from multiple relays

Unlike HTTP nostr does not have a simple flow with timeouts built in. events are sent back one at a time and can fail at any point or have massive (10s) gaps between them

The key is to use streams. something that starts, emits any number of results, then maybe errors or completes. luckily it just so happens that JavaScript / TypeScript has a great observable stream library called RxJS

What is an observable

An Observable in RxJS is stream a of data that are initialized lazily, which means the stream is inactive and not running until something subscribes to it

```ts let stream = new Observable((observer) => { observer.next(1) observer.next(2) observer.next(3) observer.complete() })

// The stream method isn't run until its subscribed to stream.subscribe(v => console.log(v)) ```

This is super powerful and perfect for nostr because it means we don't need to manage the life-cycle of the stream. it will run when something subscribes to it and stop when unsubscribed.

Its helpful to think of this as "pulling" data. once we have created an observable we can request the data from it at any point in the future.

Pulling data from relays

We can use the lazy nature of observables to only start fetching events from a nostr relay when we need them

For example we can create an observable that will load kind 1 events from the damus relay and stream them back as they are returned from the relay

```typescript let req = new Observable((observer) => { // Create a new websocket connection when the observable is start let ws = new WebSocket('wss://relay.damus.io')

ws.onopen = () => { // Start a REQ ws.send(JSON.stringify(['REQ', 'test', {kinds: [1], limit: 20}])) }

ws.onmessage = (event) => { let message = JSON.parse(event.data) // Get the event from the message and pass it along to the subscribers if(message[0] === 'EVENT') observer.next(message[1]) }

// Cleanup subscription return () => { ws.send(JSON.stringify(['CLOSE', 'test'])) ws.close() } }) ```

But creating the observable wont do anything. we need to subscribe to it to get any events.

ts let sub = req.subscribe(event => { console.log('we got an event' event) })

Cool now we are pulling events from a relay. once we are done we can stop listening to it by unsubscribing from it

ts sub.unsubscribe()

This will call the cleanup method on the observable, which in turn closes the connection to the relay.

Hopefully you can see how this work, we don't have any open, connect, or disconnect methods. we simply subscribe to a stream of events and it handles all the messy logic of connecting to a relay

Composing and chaining observables

I've shown you how we can create a simple stream of events from a relay, but what if we want to pull from two relays?

Easy, lets make the previous example into a function that takes a relay URL

```ts function getNoteFromRelay(relay: string){ return new Observable((observer) => { let ws = new WebSocket(relay)

// ...rest of the observable...

}) } ```

Then we can "merge" two of these observables into a single observable using the merge method from RxJS

The merge method will create a single observable that subscribes to both upstream observables and sends all the events back. Think of it as pulling events from both relays at once

```ts import { merge } from 'rxjs'

const notes = merge( getNoteFromRelay('wss://relay.damus.io'), getNoteFromRelay('wss://nos.lol') )

// Subscribe to the observable to start getting data from it const sub = notes.subscribe(event => { console.log(event) })

// later unsubscribe setTimeout(() => { sub.unsubscribe() }, 10_000) ```

But now we have a problem, because we are pulling events from two relays we are getting duplicate events. to solve this we can use the .pipe method and the distinct operator from RxJS to modify our single observable to only return one version of each event

The .pipe method will create a chain of observables that will each subscribe to the previous one and modify the returned values in some way

The distinct operator takes a method that returns a unique identifier and filters out any duplicate values

```ts import { merge, distinct } from 'rxjs'

const notes = merge( getNoteFromRelay('wss://relay.damus.io'), getNoteFromRelay('wss://nos.lol') ).pipe( // filter out events we have seen before based on the event id distinct(event => event.id) ) ```

Now we have an observable that when subscribed to will connect to two relays and return a stream of events without duplicates...

As you can see things can start getting complicated fast. but its also very powerful because we aren't managing any life-cycle code, we just subscribe and unsubscribe from an observable

Taking it to an extreme

Hopefully at this point you can see how powerful this is, we can think of almost any data loading pattern as a series of observables that pull data from upstream observables and stream it back to the original subscriber.

Here is a quick sketch of what it could look like to load user profiles. each node is an observable that "pulls" data from its child node ending with the "connect websocket" or "load from database" nodes which do the work of making a relay connection

Conclusion

All this might seem pretty simple and straight forward, but its been a long six month of learning for me. I've had to completely rethink how data and nostr events should be handled in a client and how to avoid screwing up and shooting myself in the foot with these powerful tools.

If you want to give RxJS a try I would encourage you to checkout the nostr sdk I've been building called applesauce

Its uses RxJS for pretty much everything and has the simplest and most flexible relay connection API I've seen so far (mainly no life-cycle management)

Let's start with some important foundational thinking - based on natural law. Money should be separate from the State - if not history shows that governments and human greed will always take over and manipulate the system in their favour and the expense of their populations. For extensive references, read The Sovereign Individual and The Creature from Jeckyll Island.

• The Separation of State and Money is the most important thing you can listen to this week. Thanks to Allen Farrington - his paper is here for those who prefer to read. Wake up, folks!

• The American Forefathers knew this when the wrote the American Constitution. Thomas Jefferson said: “If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency first by inflation then by deflation the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered... I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs.” Mark Moss explains it well here. Charlie Robinsons take here.

The situation in Canada exemplifies the issues

Governments have have long used "international economic sanctions" against other nations to enforce their positions. Now in Canada, and soon in your country too, they are applying such sanctions their own citizens - disconnecting them from the financial system and removing their ability to use their own life savings as they wish. Canadians spoke with their money - in one week they raised more money in support of the truckers for peaceful protest than were raised in support of all Canadian political parties in the election of last year - only to have it confiscated and blocked by those politicians.

Bitcoin has always been a narrative revolution disguised as code. White paper, cypherpunk lore, pizza‑day legends - every block is a paragraph in the world’s most relentless epic. But code alone rarely converts the skeptic; it’s the camp‑fire myth that slips past the prefrontal cortex and shakes hands with the limbic system. People don’t adopt protocols first - they fall in love with protagonists.

Early adopters heard the white‑paper hymn, but most folks need characters first: a pizza‑day dreamer; a mother in a small country, crushed by the cost of remittance; a Warsaw street vendor swapping złoty for sats. When their arcs land, the brain releases a neurochemical OP_RETURN which says, “I belong in this plot.” That’s the sly roundabout orange pill: conviction smuggled inside catharsis.

That’s why, from 22–25 May in Warsaw’s Kinoteka, the Bitcoin Film Fest is loading its reels with rebellion. Each documentary, drama, and animated rabbit‑hole is a stealth wallet, zipping conviction straight into the feels of anyone still clasped within the cold claw of fiat. You come for the plot, you leave checking block heights.

Die zwei mächtigsten Krieger sind Geduld und Zeit. \ Leo Tolstoi

Zum Wohle unserer Gesundheit, unserer Leistungsfähigkeit und letztlich unseres Glücks ist es wichtig, die eigene Energie bewusst zu pflegen. Das gilt umso mehr für an gesellschaftlichen Themen interessierte, selbstbewusste und kritisch denkende Menschen. Denn für deren Wahrnehmung und Wohlbefinden waren und sind die rasanten, krisen- und propagandagefüllten letzten Jahre in Absurdistan eine harte Probe.

Nur wer regelmäßig Kraft tankt und Wege findet, mit den Herausforderungen umzugehen, kann eine solche Tortur überstehen, emotionale Erschöpfung vermeiden und trotz allem zufrieden sein. Dazu müssen wir erkunden, was uns Energie gibt und was sie uns raubt. Durch Selbstreflexion und Achtsamkeit finden wir sicher Dinge, die uns erfreuen und inspirieren, und andere, die uns eher stressen und belasten.

Die eigene Energie ist eng mit unserer körperlichen und mentalen Gesundheit verbunden. Methoden zur Förderung der körperlichen Gesundheit sind gut bekannt: eine ausgewogene Ernährung, regelmäßige Bewegung sowie ausreichend Schlaf und Erholung. Bei der nicht minder wichtigen emotionalen Balance wird es schon etwas komplizierter. Stress abzubauen, die eigenen Grenzen zu kennen oder solche zum Schutz zu setzen sowie die Konzentration auf Positives und Sinnvolles wären Ansätze.

Der emotionale ist auch der Bereich, über den «Energie-Räuber» bevorzugt attackieren. Das sind zum Beispiel Dinge wie Überforderung, Perfektionismus oder mangelhafte Kommunikation. Social Media gehören ganz sicher auch dazu. Sie stehlen uns nicht nur Zeit, sondern sind höchst manipulativ und erhöhen laut einer aktuellen Studie das Risiko für psychische Probleme wie Angstzustände und Depressionen.

Geben wir negativen oder gar bösen Menschen keine Macht über uns. Das Dauerfeuer der letzten Jahre mit Krisen, Konflikten und Gefahren sollte man zwar kennen, darf sich aber davon nicht runterziehen lassen. Das Ziel derartiger konzertierter Aktionen ist vor allem, unsere innere Stabilität zu zerstören, denn dann sind wir leichter zu steuern. Aber Geduld: Selbst vermeintliche «Sonnenköniginnen» wie EU-Kommissionspräsidentin von der Leyen fallen, wenn die Zeit reif ist.

Es ist wichtig, dass wir unsere ganz eigenen Bedürfnisse und Werte erkennen. Unsere Energiequellen müssen wir identifizieren und aktiv nutzen. Dazu gehören soziale Kontakte genauso wie zum Beispiel Hobbys und Leidenschaften. Umgeben wir uns mit Sinnhaftigkeit und lassen wir uns nicht die Energie rauben!

Mein Wahlspruch ist schon lange: «Was die Menschen wirklich bewegt, ist die Kultur.» Jetzt im Frühjahr beginnt hier in Andalusien die Zeit der «Ferias», jener traditionellen Volksfeste, die vor Lebensfreude sprudeln. Konzentrieren wir uns auf die schönen Dinge und auf unsere eigenen Talente – soziale Verbundenheit wird helfen, unsere innere Kraft zu stärken und zu bewahren.

Bitcoin has always been rooted in freedom and resistance to authority. I get that many of you are conflicted about the US Government stacking but by design we cannot stop anyone from using bitcoin. Many have asked me for my thoughts on the matter, so let’s rip it.

Concern

One of the most glaring issues with the strategic bitcoin reserve is its foundation, built on stolen bitcoin. For those of us who value private property this is an obvious betrayal of our core principles. Rather than proof of work, the bitcoin that seeds this reserve has been taken by force. The US Government should return the bitcoin stolen from Bitfinex and the Silk Road.

Using stolen bitcoin for the reserve creates a perverse incentive. If governments see bitcoin as a valuable asset, they will ramp up efforts to confiscate more bitcoin. The precedent is a major concern, and I stand strongly against it, but it should be also noted that governments were already seizing coin before the reserve so this is not really a change in policy.

Ideally all seized bitcoin should be burned, by law. This would align incentives properly and make it less likely for the government to actively increase coin seizures. Due to the truly scarce properties of bitcoin, all burned bitcoin helps existing holders through increased purchasing power regardless. This change would be unlikely but those of us in policy circles should push for it regardless. It would be best case scenario for American bitcoiners and would create a strong foundation for the next century of American leadership.

Optimism

The entire point of bitcoin is that we can spend or save it without permission. That said, it is a massive benefit to not have one of the strongest governments in human history actively trying to ruin our lives.

Since the beginning, bitcoiners have faced horrible regulatory trends. KYC, surveillance, and legal cases have made using bitcoin and building bitcoin businesses incredibly difficult. It is incredibly important to note that over the past year that trend has reversed for the first time in a decade. A strategic bitcoin reserve is a key driver of this shift. By holding bitcoin, the strongest government in the world has signaled that it is not just a fringe technology but rather truly valuable, legitimate, and worth stacking.

This alignment of incentives changes everything. The US Government stacking proves bitcoin’s worth. The resulting purchasing power appreciation helps all of us who are holding coin and as bitcoin succeeds our government receives direct benefit. A beautiful positive feedback loop.

Realism

We are trending in the right direction. A strategic bitcoin reserve is a sign that the state sees bitcoin as an asset worth embracing rather than destroying. That said, there is a lot of work left to be done. We cannot be lulled into complacency, the time to push forward is now, and we cannot take our foot off the gas. We have a seat at the table for the first time ever. Let's make it worth it.

We must protect the right to free usage of bitcoin and other digital technologies. Freedom in the digital age must be taken and defended, through both technical and political avenues. Multiple privacy focused developers are facing long jail sentences for building tools that protect our freedom. These cases are not just legal battles. They are attacks on the soul of bitcoin. We need to rally behind them, fight for their freedom, and ensure the ethos of bitcoin survives this new era of government interest. The strategic reserve is a step in the right direction, but it is up to us to hold the line and shape the future.

Recently we have seen a wave of high profile X accounts hacked. These attacks have exposed the fragility of the status quo security model used by modern social media platforms like X. Many users have asked if nostr fixes this, so lets dive in. How do these types of attacks translate into the world of nostr apps? For clarity, I will use X’s security model as representative of most big tech social platforms and compare it to nostr.

The Status Quo

On X, you never have full control of your account. Ultimately to use it requires permission from the company. They can suspend your account or limit your distribution. Theoretically they can even post from your account at will. An X account is tied to an email and password. Users can also opt into two factor authentication, which adds an extra layer of protection, a login code generated by an app. In theory, this setup works well, but it places a heavy burden on users. You need to create a strong, unique password and safeguard it. You also need to ensure your email account and phone number remain secure, as attackers can exploit these to reset your credentials and take over your account. Even if you do everything responsibly, there is another weak link in X infrastructure itself. The platform’s infrastructure allows accounts to be reset through its backend. This could happen maliciously by an employee or through an external attacker who compromises X’s backend. When an account is compromised, the legitimate user often gets locked out, unable to post or regain control without contacting X’s support team. That process can be slow, frustrating, and sometimes fruitless if support denies the request or cannot verify your identity. Often times support will require users to provide identification info in order to regain access, which represents a privacy risk. The centralized nature of X means you are ultimately at the mercy of the company’s systems and staff.

Nostr Requires Responsibility

Nostr flips this model radically. Users do not need permission from a company to access their account, they can generate as many accounts as they want, and cannot be easily censored. The key tradeoff here is that users have to take complete responsibility for their security. Instead of relying on a username, password, and corporate servers, nostr uses a private key as the sole credential for your account. Users generate this key and it is their responsibility to keep it safe. As long as you have your key, you can post. If someone else gets it, they can post too. It is that simple. This design has strong implications. Unlike X, there is no backend reset option. If your key is compromised or lost, there is no customer support to call. In a compromise scenario, both you and the attacker can post from the account simultaneously. Neither can lock the other out, since nostr relays simply accept whatever is signed with a valid key.

The benefit? No reliance on proprietary corporate infrastructure.. The negative? Security rests entirely on how well you protect your key.

Future Nostr Security Improvements

For many users, nostr’s standard security model, storing a private key on a phone with an encrypted cloud backup, will likely be sufficient. It is simple and reasonably secure. That said, nostr’s strength lies in its flexibility as an open protocol. Users will be able to choose between a range of security models, balancing convenience and protection based on need.

One promising option is a web of trust model for key rotation. Imagine pre-selecting a group of trusted friends. If your account is compromised, these people could collectively sign an event announcing the compromise to the network and designate a new key as your legitimate one. Apps could handle this process seamlessly in the background, notifying followers of the switch without much user interaction. This could become a popular choice for average users, but it is not without tradeoffs. It requires trust in your chosen web of trust, which might not suit power users or large organizations. It also has the issue that some apps may not recognize the key rotation properly and followers might get confused about which account is “real.”

For those needing higher security, there is the option of multisig using FROST (Flexible Round-Optimized Schnorr Threshold). In this setup, multiple keys must sign off on every action, including posting and updating a profile. A hacker with just one key could not do anything. This is likely overkill for most users due to complexity and inconvenience, but it could be a game changer for large organizations, companies, and governments. Imagine the White House nostr account requiring signatures from multiple people before a post goes live, that would be much more secure than the status quo big tech model.

Another option are hardware signers, similar to bitcoin hardware wallets. Private keys are kept on secure, offline devices, separate from the internet connected phone or computer you use to broadcast events. This drastically reduces the risk of remote hacks, as private keys never touches the internet. It can be used in combination with multisig setups for extra protection. This setup is much less convenient and probably overkill for most but could be ideal for governments, companies, or other high profile accounts.

---

Nostr’s security model is not perfect but is robust and versatile. Ultimately users are in control and security is their responsibility. Apps will give users multiple options to choose from and users will choose what best fits their need.

In much of the world, it is incredibly difficult to access U.S. dollars. Local currencies are often poorly managed and riddled with corruption. Billions of people demand a more reliable alternative. While the dollar has its own issues of corruption and mismanagement, it is widely regarded as superior to the fiat currencies it competes with globally. As a result, Tether has found massive success providing low cost, low friction access to dollars. Tether claims 400 million total users, is on track to add 200 million more this year, processes 8.1 million transactions daily, and facilitates $29 billion in daily transfers. Furthermore, their estimates suggest nearly 40% of users rely on it as a savings tool rather than just a transactional currency.

Tether’s rise has made the company a financial juggernaut. Last year alone, Tether raked in over $13 billion in profit, with a lean team of less than 100 employees. Their business model is elegantly simple: hold U.S. Treasuries and collect the interest. With over $113 billion in Treasuries, Tether has turned a straightforward concept into a profit machine.

Tether’s success has resulted in many competitors eager to claim a piece of the pie. This has triggered a massive venture capital grift cycle in USD tokens, with countless projects vying to dethrone Tether. Due to Tether’s entrenched network effect, these challengers face an uphill battle with little realistic chance of success. Most educated participants in the space likely recognize this reality but seem content to perpetuate the grift, hoping to cash out by dumping their equity positions on unsuspecting buyers before they realize the reality of the situation.

Historically, Tether’s greatest vulnerability has been U.S. government intervention. For over a decade, the company operated offshore with few allies in the U.S. establishment, making it a major target for regulatory action. That dynamic has shifted recently and Tether has seized the opportunity. By actively courting U.S. government support, Tether has fortified their position. This strategic move will likely cement their status as the dominant USD token for years to come.

While undeniably a great tool for the millions of users that rely on it, Tether is not without flaws. As a centralized, trusted third party, it holds the power to freeze or seize funds at its discretion. Corporate mismanagement or deliberate malpractice could also lead to massive losses at scale. In their goal of mitigating regulatory risk, Tether has deepened ties with law enforcement, mirroring some of the concerns of potential central bank digital currencies. In practice, Tether operates as a corporate CBDC alternative, collaborating with authorities to surveil and seize funds. The company proudly touts partnerships with leading surveillance firms and its own data reveals cooperation in over 1,000 law enforcement cases, with more than $2.5 billion in funds frozen.

---

The global demand for Tether is undeniable and the company’s profitability reflects its unrivaled success. Tether is owned and operated by bitcoiners and will likely continue to push forward strategic goals that help the movement as a whole. Recent efforts to mitigate the threat of U.S. government enforcement will likely solidify their network effect and stifle meaningful adoption of rival USD tokens or CBDCs. Yet, for all their achievements, Tether is simply a worse form of money than bitcoin. Tether requires trust in a centralized entity, while bitcoin can be saved or spent without permission. Furthermore, Tether is tied to the value of the US Dollar which is designed to lose purchasing power over time, while bitcoin, as a truly scarce asset, is designed to increase in purchasing power with adoption. As people awaken to the risks of Tether’s control, and the benefits bitcoin provides, bitcoin adoption will likely surpass it.

The rental population in Spain has grown from about 5 million in 2005 to around 10 million in 2025. During that same period, Spain's total population has increased by 6 million people, from 43 to 49 million. In other words, the entire population growth over the past 20 years has essentially gone straight into the rental market.

This demographic growth is not due to natural increase, Spain has one of the lowest fertility rates in the world. Instead, population growth is driven by a positive migratory balance, which has been the main factor behind the rise in rental demand.

This increased demand for rentals has pushed up rental prices, which have significantly outpaced the growth in property sale prices. That didn’t happen during the Great Financial Crisis. The growth in both demand and prices is allowing rental profitability to remain at the high end of the curve—around 5% net.

This situation explains the rise in housing squatting, from 2,000 cases in 2010 to 16,000 in 2024. Since the immigrant population is the main driver of this surge in rental demand, it is more vulnerable to squatting, as they often have no alternative housing when they are unable to pay.

The unemployment rate is currently low, however, if it were to rise (as it did during the Great Financial Crisis and other periods in the past), squatting would likely increase significantly, representing the main risk to the current real estate market in Spain.

One of the most common criticisms leveled against nostr is the perceived lack of assurance when it comes to data storage. Critics argue that without a centralized authority guaranteeing that all data is preserved, important information will be lost. They also claim that running a relay will become prohibitively expensive. While there is truth to these concerns, they miss the mark. The genius of nostr lies in its flexibility, resilience, and the way it harnesses human incentives to ensure data availability in practice.

A nostr relay is simply a server that holds cryptographically verifiable signed data and makes it available to others. Relays are simple, flexible, open, and require no permission to run. Critics are right that operating a relay attempting to store all nostr data will be costly. What they miss is that most will not run all encompassing archive relays. Nostr does not rely on massive archive relays. Instead, anyone can run a relay and choose to store whatever subset of data they want. This keeps costs low and operations flexible, making relay operation accessible to all sorts of individuals and entities with varying use cases.

Critics are correct that there is no ironclad guarantee that every piece of data will always be available. Unlike bitcoin where data permanence is baked into the system at a steep cost, nostr does not promise that every random note or meme will be preserved forever. That said, in practice, any data perceived as valuable by someone will likely be stored and distributed by multiple entities. If something matters to someone, they will keep a signed copy.

Nostr is the Streisand Effect in protocol form. The Streisand effect is when an attempt to suppress information backfires, causing it to spread even further. With nostr, anyone can broadcast signed data, anyone can store it, and anyone can distribute it. Try to censor something important? Good luck. The moment it catches attention, it will be stored on relays across the globe, copied, and shared by those who find it worth keeping. Data deemed important will be replicated across servers by individuals acting in their own interest.

Nostr’s distributed nature ensures that the system does not rely on a single point of failure or a corporate overlord. Instead, it leans on the collective will of its users. The result is a network where costs stay manageable, participation is open to all, and valuable verifiable data is stored and distributed forever.

Today we’re launching Buzzbot Express: a clean, targeted way to drive engagement and reward your audience with sats.

Here’s how it works:

1. Tag @buzzbot express [amount] (e.g., @buzzbot express 5000)

2. Pay the invoice sent to your DMs

3. After 12 hours, one random liker and one random commenter each win **50% of the sats **(6% fee)

Since launching Buzzbot, we’ve seen a wide range of creative use cases. But the clearest path to long-term value may lie in branded content and decentralized promotion.

From plebs promoting value-for-value concerts to podcasters pushing new episodes, Buzzbot Express gives creators and brands a tool to generate real energy around a post.

Paying for engagement might feel off-brand to some, but if you’re promoting a product, a song, or an event, Buzzbot Express offers a clean, transparent way to generate real momentum.

The invention of Zaps opened the fifth dimension of social media. They are not just another feature added to the stack. They are an exponential amplifier that transforms attention into economic energy.

At Buzzbot, we believe this new creator economy can and should include advertisers.

The days of brands paying millions to ad firms, hiring Hollywood talent, and forcing campaigns into feeds are fading. That model made sense on centralized, algorithmic platforms, but it doesn’t belong on Nostr.

Instead, brands can spend that same money directly with creators who align with their values. Or better yet, they can reward audiences for engaging honestly.

That’s where Buzzbot comes in.

Buzzbot Express is a small step toward this future. Try it out — and let us know what you think.

Pay attention.

In the year 2023, a man known as RTD. HAMZA AL-MUSTAPHA. In a TV show revealed the secret behind the mining of californium in west African country, Nigeria. He also revealed that the mining of californium is also the reason while a particular (borno) state in Nigeria 🇳🇬 experience hight rate of terrorism!.

There are several research that quote that californium does not exist naturally on earth but can be made in the laboratory with the bombarding of curium with helium ions. Now from this context, it shows that there are two elements responsible for californium, which are curium and helium ions. But before i dive in deeper, there are some key words that will convince and prove the existence of californium in Nigeria.

• californium.
• curium.
• helium ions.
• mining.
• Earth crust.
• temperature.
• bombarding.

Californium: this is a chemical element of atomic number 98, a radioactive metal of the actinide series, first produced by bombarding of curium with helium ions. This means that californium is a product of curium and helium after the bombarding process.

Curium: this is a synthetic, radioactive, metallic element with the atomic number of 96. There are many ways and places where curium can be found apart from being produced in the laboratory. But in this contexts, I will focus on environmental samples and nuclear waste ways of finding curium. _ environment sample: trace amounts of Curium can be found in environmental samples such as soil or water, near
nuclear facilities or after nuclear accidents. _ nuclear waste: curium is a component of nuclear waste, particularly in spent nuclear fuel. This means that we can find curium in our environment not only on laboratory.

Helium: helium is a chemical element with the atomic number of 2, it is colorless, tasteless, odorless and non toxic, inert monatomic gas. There are ways and places you can get helium but I want to focus on the radioactive decay method of getting helium. _radioactive decay: in this method, helium is produced through the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium in the Earth crust.

Mining: Mining is the process of extracting valuable materials from the beneath the Earth crust, including minerals, metals, and fossil fuels like coal, oil, and gas. It involves various techniques, from digging tunnels for underground mining to excavating open-pit mines. The goal is to locate and extract economically viable deposits of these resources for use in manufacturing, energy production, and other applications.

Temperature: thus is the hotness or coldness of something, which is specifically related to the average kinetic energy of an object's particle. Since particles are in constant motion, they possess kinetic energy, and temperature reflects the energy associated with this particle movement. The temperature beneath the Earth is very high causing this elements (curium and helium) to bombard and form californium 😃.

Bombarding: direct a stream of high-speed particles at (a substance) or element.

Since there are the presence of curium and helium ions beneath the Earth crust, the high temperature beneath there will bombard them both forming californium as the end product, which attracts miners to come do there mining activities and discover californium. 😀

Final, there are atoms of truth in what RTD. AL-MUSTAPHA said about CALIFORNIUM in Nigeria 🇳🇬.

How could the Dallas Mavericks possibly have gotten the first pick in this draft? League corruption? Mischievous basketball gods? Simulation theory? Dumb stupid luck? Whatever the reason, it's very interesting.

We'll probably be done with the 2nd round, by the time we record, which means round 2 recap and conference finals previews. It's definitely not the matchups anyone expected. What are the implications for our brackets?

The NFL released the season schedules and @grayruby's rightly excited for his 49ers upcoming season.

The parity situation worsens in the MLB, as the Dodgers' pitchers are ravaged by injury. Also, @grayruby and I are going head-to-head in fantasy baseball this week. Who will prevail?

On this week's Blok'd Shots, @grayruby will dance on the Leafs' grave and celebrate their well-deserved misfortune. Hell hath no fury like a scorned Leafs fan. Also, the NHL bracket is coming down to me and @Jer. Will knowing anything about hockey be enough to get Jer the victory?

And, as always, whatever the stackers want us to cover.

I soar all over the world, but one of the places I visit often is this little tiny square opening. I land softly on the platform and peer in through the hole. There’s a man inside; he seems to enjoy when I come by. His eyes light up and he gives me crumbs of bread to eat. The bread is tasty and fulfilling; it satisfies my hunger during my flights to other destinations. I wonder what it’s like to be man.

Man does strange things. I can’t fully understand. For example, this man is confined in a tiny box. He sits on what looks like a deformed tree, and in front of him is a tiny rectangular box. Everything man has is so boxy; it’s unnatural to me. When I fly from place to place, I don’t see any boxes; rather, I see a wiggly world. Endless shape, no two things look the same, but to man, it’s like he wants everything to be the same. Man usually is looking at other thin boxes; these are slim and have marks on them. He appears to stare for a long time at them, and then he sets them down and picks up another to stare at. In his box, he has long, narrow boxes. They hold small boxes bundled together with slim boxes. It gives me a headache seeing so many boxes. Once I observed man outside in the wiggly world, and when he left his big box, he went into another smaller box that moved! I was so interested I followed his moving box. You wouldn’t guess where he went to! Another box, but this one was a big one with subsections of smaller boxes. Could you believe they even have big boxes for water! What a headache man is.

The game man plays is interesting; it seems to be about boxes and how to put wiggly things in them. The wiggly is too elusive; one can’t box it up. Even if you surround the wiggly in a box, it will continue to wiggle. Like a tree confined to a planter box, its roots will spread beyond their confinement. Man is like this but believes the box will contain him, shameful.

I used to think I thrived on chaos. Podcasts blaring, TV on in the background, notifications pinging—it was my norm. But last year, I hit a wall. I was irritable, foggy, and couldn’t focus. I didn’t realize how much the constant noise was frying my brain until I tried something radical: silence.

The Experiment One weekend, I turned everything off. No music, no screens, no chatter. At first, it was weird—almost suffocating. My mind raced, looking for something to latch onto. But after a few hours, I settled in. I sat with a cup of tea, just listening to the hum of the fridge. It was the first time in months I’d actually heard my own thoughts

What Silence Gave Me That quiet weekend was a reset. I started noticing things I’d ignored—like how tense I’d been or how I’d been avoiding tough decisions. Silence didn’t just calm me; it forced me to face myself. I kept it up, carving out 30 minutes a day with no sound. It’s become my sanity-saver. When life gets loud, those quiet moments keep me grounded. Turns out, my brain needed the break. All that noise was overloading me, leaving no room to process anything. Silence let me recharge and think clearly again. It’s not about being a hermit—it’s about giving myself space to breathe.

In the rapidly evolving world of cryptocurrencies, the potential interplay between artificial intelligence and digital assets has captured significant attention. Cointelegraph recently reported on the concept of AI, particularly in the form of ChatGPT, contributing to the potential rise of Bitcoin, potentially reaching a value of $100K in 2024. This development offers a glimpse into the role of AI in shaping the direction of cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin.

AI’s Role in Shaping Bitcoin’s Future: ChatGPT, an advanced language model powered by artificial intelligence, has been seen as a potential assistant in driving Bitcoin’s value upwards. The underlying premise is rooted in AI’s capacity to influence market analysis, comprehend and design trading strategies, and anticipate potential trends in the cryptocurrency sector. By leveraging vast amounts of data and analyzing complex patterns, ChatGPT could provide insights that impact investment decisions and market.

AI-Powered Market Analysis and Prediction One of the key ways AI, represented by ChatGPT, can aid Bitcoin’s value appreciation is through advanced market analysis and prediction. By assimilating and processing large datasets encompassing historical price movements, trading volumes, market sentiment, and external factors, AI can potentially forecast potential price changes with a higher degree of accuracy. This analytical capability could equip investors with valuable insights regarding optimal entry and exit points, thus potentially contributing to Bitcoin’s upward trajectory. Furthermore, AI’s predictive abilities extend to discerning macroeconomic and geopolitical developments that could impact Bitcoin’s value, enabling proactive decision-making in response to dynamic market conditions. This foresight could instill confidence among investors and potentially drive greater adoption and investment in Bitcoin, which contributed to its ascent $100K mark.

Influencing Trading Strategies AI-driven trading strategies have gained prominence in financial markets, and their potential impact on Bitcoin’s valuation is noteworthy. ChatGPT’s capacity to generate and optimize trading algorithms that respond to market conditions in real-time could potentially enhance trading efficiency and liquidity in Bitcoin markets. By identifying opportunities for arbitrage, risk management, and executing complex trading strategies, AI could facilitate a more stable and robust Bitcoin market, potentially attracting institutional investors and bolstering its overall value.

Market Volatility Volatility has been a defining characteristic of the cryptocurrency markets, including Bitcoin. AI, through ChatGPT, could aid in mitigating this volatility by providing real-time insights, sentiment analysis, and risk assessments to market participants. By enhancing transparency and reducing uncertainty, AI-driven tools may contribute to a more stable and predictable environment for Bitcoin trading, potentially attracting a broader investor base and positively influencing its long-term value, including the speculated $100K threshold. Conclusion The potential for AI, exemplified by ChatGPT, to influence Bitcoin’s trajectory towards a $100K valuation in 2024 underscores the evolving synergy between technology and finance. As AI continues to permeate various domains, its impact on cryptocurrency markets is poised to be substantial. It is imperative to monitor the evolution of AI’s role in shaping the future of Bitcoin and other digital assets, as it has the potential to redefine investment strategies, market dynamics, and the broader financial landscape in the years to come.

Developer SHIFT UP has announced that their latest titled, Stellar Blade, that was released on PS5 on the 2024, will release on PC via Steam and EGS on the 11th of June 2025.

The game will be priced at $60, and $80 for the edition of the game that includes the 'Twin Expansion Pack', which includes the NieR: Automata DLC and the Goddess of Victory: Nikke DLC, and a key to redeem a Stellar Blade costume in the developer's previous Free-to-Play title Goddess of Victory: Nikke.

The trailer released to announce said release date also showcases the changes the made for the game and highlight PC specific enhancements, support, and options.

It's worth noting, in terms of negative news that tagged along with this, that the game will have Denuvo running, which there are evidence that decreases a game's performance, and may prevent you from playing the game offline. The game will also have an optional PSN account login, and because of this, the game is not available for purchase in around 130 countries. There's also an exclusive outfit locked behind a PSN-to-Steam account linking.

Baustelle HERZ

Können wir nicht einfach glücklich sein? Nein.

Eine traumatisierte Gesellschaft kann nicht EINFACH glücklich sein, weil die Herzen verletzt sind.

„Ja, aber es gibt doch auch noch andere Probleme als Trauma“, kritisieren einige.

„Ich habe schließlich eine Familie und einen anstrengenden Job“, erklären andere.

„Für mich ist das eine abstrakte Diskussion, ein Luxusproblem“, geben manche zu bedenken.

„Eigentlich möchte ich mich mit dem Thema gar nicht beschäftigen“, sagen wenige, denken aber viele.

„Ich beschäftige mich lieber mit positiven Dingen“, ist die diplomatische Variante der Vermeidung dieses Themas.

Niemand redet gerne über Trauma, bis es an die eigene Tür klopft. Und dann ist guter Rat teuer. Dann würde man gerne reden, aber die anderen wollen immer noch nicht.

Niemand redet gerne über Trauma.

„Was heißt denn Anklopfen?“ Mit Anklopfen meine ich die Situationen, die jeder kennt. Gemeint sind ganz normale Lebenskrisen, die es mehrmals in jedem Leben gibt.

„Ist denn eine Lebenskrise gleichzusetzten mit einem Trauma?“ Nein, aber durch eine starke Lebenskrise kann ein altes Trauma wieder hochgespült werden, und das fühlt sich dann original so an, wie das Trauma, das man z.B. als Kind oder später im Leben erlebt hat.

Und das passiert in einer traumatisierten Gesellschaft ständig, nur nennen die Leute es nicht so. Niemand sagt: „Er oder sie hat ein aktiviertes Trauma.“

Hierzu habe ich eine Anekdote. Vor ein paar Monaten zog in das Nachbarhaus bei mir auf der Straße ein junger Mann ein. Das Haus war frisch renoviert worden. Es zogen zeitgleich mehrere junge Leute jeweils in eine Wohnung dieses Hauses ein. Die Stimmung im Haus war gut, weil alles neu und geschmackvoll gestaltet worden war und die Mieter gut zusammen passten. Dann merkten die Mieter und Nachbarn, dass es einem jungen Mann nicht gut ging. Er saß den ganzen Tag in der Wohnung, konnte sich zu nichts aufraffen. Er schaffte es nicht, sich Lebensmittel einzukaufen. Ein Freund kam regelmäßig vorbei und brachte ihm Essen. Eine ältere Nachbarin fragte nach einigen Monaten diesen Freund, was dem jungen Mann denn fehle, ob er eine Krankheit habe oder was denn los sei. Der Freund lachte und sagte nur einen Satz: „Er stirbt.“

Die Nachbarin erzählte mir das und schaute mich fragend an. Ich übersetzte ihr den Satz und meinte: „Er hat vermutlich Liebeskummer.“ Aber was ich wirklich dachte, war, dass er ein aktiviertes Trauma hatte, nur sagte ich das nicht zur Nachbarin. Nach mittlerweile zwei Jahren kommt der Freund immer noch regelmäßig und bringt dem jungen Mann Essen. Er kauft für ihn ein und kümmert sich um ihn.

Manche Menschen leiden sehr lange unter Verlusten, Zurückweisungen, Niederlagen, Verletzungen. Andere kommen nie auf die nächste Stufe, obwohl sie sich unaufhörlich anstrengen. Wieder andere haben alles und sind dennoch unzufrieden und in permanenter Angriffshaltung. All diese Phänomene dauern oft lange, manchmal sogar ein Leben lang. Meines Erachtens sind das aktivierte Traumen bzw. Traumen, die gut verschlossen dennoch im Unterbewusstsein gegen die eigene Person arbeiten.

Trauma hat viele Gesichter.

Es kommt bei den unmöglichsten Gelegenheiten zum Vorschein. Und oft erkennen wir es nicht als das, was es ist. Wir suchen den Grund im Außen, den es ja meist auch gibt. Nur ist der Grund nicht der Grund, sondern nur der Auslöser.

Auch ich bin einmal „gestorben“. Dieser Zustand dauerte über drei Jahre an. Deshalb klingelte es bei mir auch sofort im Ohr als die Nachbarin sagte, der Freund habe gesagt: „Er stirbt.“

Sprache ist wunderbar.

Wer beides schon mal erlebt hat, eine normale Trennung und eine schwere Trennung, einen normalen Arbeitsplatzwechsel oder einen dramatischen Jobverlust, ein geplatztes Geschäft oder einen geplatzten Lebenstraum, das Ende einer Freundschaft oder eine Kränkung, über die man noch nach 35 Jahren so berichtet, als ob es gestern gewesen wäre, der kennt den Unterschied in der Intensität der Gefühle. Manche Menschen erzählen immer wieder eine Geschichte, obwohl man sie schon kennt und auch sein Mitgefühl dazu ausgedrückt hat. Manche Menschen reden gar nicht mehr über eine bestimmte Sache, bis einem irgendwann von Dritten gesagt wird, dass man ihn oder sie besser nicht auf das Thema XYZ ansprechen sollte.

All das sind aktivierte Traumen, die noch weh tun, noch nicht verarbeitet sind. Es sind Dinge, die jedem von uns passieren können. Jeder erlebt im Leben partnerschaftliche Trennungen, geplatzte Geschäfte und Kränkungen am laufenden Meter, aber es „trifft“ einen nicht immer gleich. Und es trifft nicht nur die Sensiblen, sondern es trifft jeden, wenn der Punkt, an dem es trifft, wund ist. Der wunde Punkt macht jeden sensibel. Auch robuste Naturen haben einen wunden Punkt. Und wenn der getroffen wird, dann werden auch die härtesten Menschen butterweich. In einer traumatisierten Gesellschaft wird jeder so oft  „getroffen“, wie es braucht, bis er sich dem Thema widmet. Wir alle haben diese frühen oder späten Traumen erlebt, die früher oder später erneut durch Krisen aktiviert werden. Und dann „sterben“ wir, zumindest gefühlt.

Denn Trauma ist immer existenziell.

Und aktiviertes Trauma ist bitte nicht zu verwechseln mit Depression. Es ist ein aktiviertes Trauma, das sich im Unterschied zur Depression sehr wach, lebendig und vor allem schmerzvoll anfühlt. Es fühlt sich an wie „damals“. Das versteht man, in der Situation steckend, komischerweise sofort, denn wir haben ein Schmerzgedächtnis. Wir können Düfte oder Musik ja auch sofort zuordnen, wenn sie uns an etwas erinnern. Mit Schmerz ist es ähnlich. Aber es fällt so schwer, darüber zu reden, weil es keiner versteht und weil es dafür meines Erachtens in unserer Sprache keine Worte gibt. Man versteht das erst, wenn man es selbst erlebt hat. Und dann reichen zwei Worte.

Die Baustelle HERZ versteht man erst, wenn man selbst ein aktiviertes Trauma erlebt, durchlebt hat, wenn man einmal „gestorben“ ist.

Heute kann ich an Äußerungen, die jemand macht, gut ablesen, ob jemand seine Baustelle HERZ bereits kennen gelernt hat oder nicht. Menschen, die das selbst noch nicht kennen gelernt haben, haben oft aufmunternde Sprüche wie „Das wird schon wieder. Jetzt lass den Kopf mal nicht hängen.“ Das hilft einem dann in etwa so, wie wenn man in einer Depression gesagt bekommt: „Nun lach doch mal.“ Man weiß dann sofort, welchen Erfahrungshintergrund das Gegenüber hat. Das ist keine Wertung, nur eine Feststellung. Unsere Kultur hat hier einfach wichtiges Wissen verloren. Ich persönlich weiß nicht, wie es ist, ein Kind auf die Welt zu bringen oder ein Kind zu verlieren. Ich weiß vieles nicht und habe vermutlich auch schon wenig hilfreiche Kommentare abgegeben, weil ich es nicht besser wusste. Aber ich weiß, wie sich ein aktiviertes Trauma anfühlt. Und das ist ein wertvolles Wissen, was ich gern teilen möchte. Man schaut mit diesem erfahrenen Wissen (kein Bücher-Wissen) viel  differenzierter auf das Leid anderer Menschen. Es gibt so viele Sorten von Trauma und deswegen auch Sorten von aktiviertem Trauma. Manchmal denkt man sich nichts dabei und sagt etwas, und schon hat man beim anderen einen Punkt getroffen, der dadurch nun schmerzt. Wenn man Glück hat, dann dauert der Schmerz nur kurz an. Wenn man Pech hat, ist die Freundschaft zu Ende. Ich habe das selbst schon erlebt. Mal war ich es, die den Rückzug angetreten hat. Mal war es der andere. Hinter diesen Phänomenen steckt nichtverarbeitetes Trauma. Die Bildungslücke bezüglich Trauma in unserer Gesellschaft ist (gewollt) riesig.

Wir sind eine traumatisierte Gesellschaft, die nicht weiß, dass sie eine traumatisierte Gesellschaft ist.

Viele Menschen haben unverarbeitetes Trauma im Gepäck. Wir haben selbst nach Jahren der Therapie und Selbstreflektion immer noch unverarbeitete Anteile eines Traumas im Gepäck, das wir glaubten, bearbeitet zu haben. Mir ist das bewusst geworden, je besser ich mein eigenes Trauma kennen und lieben gelernt habe.

Eigentlich wollte ich heute kurz etwas über den gesunden Umgang mit Gefühlen schreiben. Beim Schreiben habe ich aber gemerkt, dass ich erstmal etwas über das Haus erzählen muss, bevor ich über die Gäste, die Gefühle, rede. Ich bin das Haus, das durch Verstand und Gefühle belebt wird. Und hinter dem Haus gibt es noch ein ganzes Universum, auf das ich heute nicht eingehen möchte.

Gefühle und Fühlen sind zentral wichtig, wenn man Trauma bearbeiten möchte.

Trauma wird solange aktiviert, bis es bearbeitet wurde.

In einer traumatisierten Gesellschaft wird 24/7 Trauma aktiviert. Und das ist gut so. Die Evolution schläft nicht. Die Evolution schenkt uns Schmerz, damit wir ihr Aufmerksamkeit schenken.

Das Leben liebt uns, und wiederkehrender Schmerz ist wie die Schlummerfunktion am Wecker, die möchte, dass wir aufwachen.

In unserer traumatisierten Gesellschaft klingelt momentan nicht nur der Wecker. Alles, was tönen kann, gibt Signal. Mir kommt es in dieser Zeit manchmal vor, wie wenn sich   gleichzeitig  , das Kinder-Sinfonieorchester mit sämtlichen Instrumenten einstimmt, jemand mit dem Handy telefoniert, das Fenster zur Hauptstraße offen steht, der Bus anfährt, der Auspuff röhrt, jemand hupt, das Martinshorn aufheult, die Drehorgel spielt, das Pausenzeichen in der Schule ertönt, es an der Tür klingelt und die Kirchenorgel aus allen Pfeifen flötet und brummt.  

Aktiviertes Trauma macht ordentlich Krach individuell und erst recht gesellschaftlich gesehen. Und je lauter es ist, desto dringender möchte es bearbeitet werden.

Die Baustelle HERZ zu bearbeiten, lohnt sich. Und Fühlen bringt die Verwandlung.

Push it! Push it! Push it!

That chant still echoes in my bones, not just from the gym, but from the inside out. I remember watching a bodybuilder once — the weight trembling above him, his muscles bulging and giving out, the spotters swooping in to catch the bar just in time. “Train to failure,” they said. “That’s how you grow.”

And it makes sense, doesn’t it? If you’re being chased by a wild beast, you run until your body gives out. That’s how we’re wired — to survive first and foremost, not necessarily to thrive.

But what if the house we’re building isn’t under threat from wolves? What if we’ve got stone-moving machines and time to breathe? What if we’re not being chased anymore… but we still act like we are?

See, survival patterns are sneaky. They wear masks. They show up in workouts and work days. They dress up in ambition, caffeine, and “just one more thing before I stop.”

I’ve never been a bodybuilder — my brother was — but I’ve tried that route in my own work life. Lift to failure. Push it. Every other day, I’d be nursing another injury to body and mind.

I wasn’t getting stronger. I was just breaking myself in cycles. Push, break, recover, repeat.

I see the same thing with brains. Push it. Adderall. More coffee. Keep going. Hit the wall. And then—collapse.

That’s not strengthening. That’s surviving pretending to be “powerful.”

What happens to the rest of your system when your brain is sucking up all the energy just to stay on task? You stop digesting. You stop feeling the sun on your skin. You stop enjoying your kids’ laughter. Everything feels like something to push through.

That isn’t thriving.

Thriving feels different. It’s alive, yes — there’s activation. But it’s not strained. When we’re in thriving mode, we’re with our energy, not yanking it out by the roots and forcing it to regrow. The muscles — or the mind — are engaged, fluid, expressive. Alive.

It’s a fine line. You can take the same exact action and fill it with stress.

I’ve done it. I’ve turned a perfectly normal task into a survival sprint. It feels ridiculous in hindsight — like, why did I make this email reply into a mountain climb?

Because my primitive brain still whispers, “If you don’t do this perfectly and fast, you’ll die.” Not literally. But the threat feels real. The imagined judgment, the self-criticism, the fear of not being enough — they’re imaginary lions in the tall grass of modern life.

I’ve used this system on myself. I’ve strained my nervous system like fingernails scraping rock to avoid a fall that was never coming.

That’s what we’re supposed to do, right? We bring survival force into every aspect. Into parenting. Into projects. Into relationships.

And we wonder why we’re tired all the time. Not sleepy tired — soul tired. That kind of tired that feels like you ran for your life… but all you did was sit at your desk.

Here’s what I know now: if you’re not actually in danger, you can stop living like you are.

You don’t have to push everything to the edge. You don’t have to prove your strength through strain. Strength can be alive in you — not torn, not depleted, but awake and sustaining.

And when we live from there, the recovery feels different, too. We’re not collapsing. We’re restoring.

We’re not dropping all the pieces and then forcing ourselves to pick them up… again! Instead, we’re crafting a thriving life from the pieces we find, fashion, and consciously put in place.

There’s a wisdom to building your foundation around thriving — not just surviving. And thriving starts with recognizing: it’s not life or death to get through your inbox. Your self-worth isn’t measured by how busy and depleted you are.

Look around. Are you stacking more and more iron to prove something? Or are you listening to the quiet whisper that says, “Yes, move… but don’t hurt yourself doing it.”

And in a life that tells you to push until you fail, choosing to rest and relish — choosing to feel alive rather than just alive-enough — might just be the truest strength there is.

Useful Concepts for Thriving in This Story

• Primitive Brain\ The primitive brain keeps us on high alert even when we’re safe — it’s time to question whether the lion is real.

• Unrushed\ Being unrushed is a radical shift from survival tempo to the rhythm of true aliveness.

• Savvy\ Savvy invites us to work with our energy wisely, not destructively — to choose thriving over proving.

• Vitality\ Vitality flows when we stop draining ourselves for performance and start living from inner strength.

• Inspired Action\ Inspired action arises from presence and aliveness, not adrenaline and depletion.

Technológiai fejlemények

Az Egyesült Államokban és világszerte jelentős előrelépések történtek a nukleáris technológia területén. A mesterséges intelligencia (AI) egyre nagyobb szerepet kap az atomerőművek működtetésében: például a kaliforniai Diablo Canyon atomerőmű már alkalmaz generatív AI-t a dokumentumkezelés és az üzemeltetési hatékonyság javítására. Az AI segíti az üzemeltetőket a karbantartás előrejelzésében, a biztonság növelésében és a reaktorok élettartamának meghosszabbításában is. Emellett az USA Nukleáris Szabályozó Bizottsága (NRC) is vizsgálja, hogyan gyorsíthatná fel az engedélyezési folyamatokat AI-alapú rendszerekkel, ami jelentősen felgyorsíthatja az új reaktorok telepítését.

A NANO Nuclear Energy jelentős mérföldkövet ért el: megszerezte a KRONOS MMR™ (45 MWth teljesítményű, helyhez kötött mikroreaktor) és a LOKI MMR™ (1–5 MWth teljesítményű, hordozható mikroreaktor) technológiákat, és ezek fejlesztését az USA-ban és Kanadában is előmozdítja. A KRONOS MMR üzemanyag-minősítési módszertanát az NRC már jóváhagyta, ami kulcsfontosságú a kereskedelmi bevezetéshez

Ipari és piaci fejlemények

Az amerikai The Nuclear Company startup 46 millió dolláros tőkebevonással kívánja új, nagy teljesítményű atomerőművek fejlesztését megkezdeni, elsősorban már engedélyezett helyszíneken. A cél, hogy az első flottában összesen 6 gigawatt kapacitást hozzanak létre. Ez a lépés válasz a gyorsan növekvő amerikai áramigényre, amelyet főként az adatközpontok és a mesterséges intelligencia-alkalmazások hajtanak. Ugyanakkor a nukleáris ipar pénzügyi kilátásait bizonytalanság övezi, mivel az amerikai törvényhozás egyes tervezetei a nukleáris energia adókedvezményeinek megszüntetését is kilátásba helyezték, ami a jövőbeni beruházások megtérülését is befolyásolhatja.

Belgiumban a parlament váratlan fordulattal úgy döntött, hogy nem zárják be az atomerőműveket, hanem tíz évvel meghosszabbítják a reaktorok élettartamát, sőt, új reaktorok építését is tervezik. A döntés mögött az energiaválság, az ellátásbiztonság és a geopolitikai feszültségek állnak.

Magyarországon folytatódik a Paks II. projekt előkészítése, és napirenden van kis moduláris reaktorok (SMR) telepítése is, amelyek néhány száz megawattos teljesítményükkel akár ipari zónákat vagy városokat is önállóan elláthatnak.

Pénzügyi és geopolitikai aktualitások

A nukleáris energia geopolitikai jelentősége továbbra is kiemelkedő. Tajvan szombaton leállítja utolsó működő atomerőművi blokkját, ami jelentős LNG-import költségnövekedést eredményez, és komoly vitákat váltott ki a szigetországban. A törvényhozás ugyanakkor már vizsgálja az atomenergia-törvény felülvizsgálatát, amely lehetővé teheti a reaktorok újraindítását – erről akár népszavazás is lehet a közeljövőben.

Az USA és Irán között folytatódnak az atomprogramról szóló tárgyalások. Bár közelednek az álláspontok, az USA új szankciókat vezetett be Irán ellen, mivel Teherán továbbra is magas szintű urándúsítást folytat. Az esetleges megállapodás rövid távon növelheti az iráni kőolajexportot, ami a világpiaci árakra is hatással lehet.

Há algo quase reconfortante na previsibilidade com que certos colunistas abordam Bitcoin: a cada oportunidade, repetem os mesmos chavões, reciclados com indignação moralista e embrulhados numa embalagem de falsa autoridade. O artigo publicado na Visão, com o título dramático "De criança prodígio a adolescente problemático", encaixa-se perfeitamente nesse molde.

Trata-se de uma peça de opinião que mistura factos irrelevantes com interpretações enviesadas, estatísticas sem contexto e um medo mal disfarçado de perder o monopólio da narrativa económica. A autora, Sofia Santos Machado, opta por colar em Bitcoin os desastres do chamado “mundo cripto” como se fossem parte do mesmo fenómeno — ignorando, por conveniência ou ignorância, que Bitcoin não é altcoins, não é NFTs, não é esquemas de yield exótico, e não é fintech vestida de blockchain.

Esta resposta centra-se exclusivamente em Bitcoin — um protocolo monetário aberto, incorruptível e resistente à censura, que já está a servir como salvaguarda de valor em regiões onde o sistema financeiro convencional falhou. Não me interessa defender pirâmides, tokens inflacionários ou aventuras bancárias mal calculadas.

Criticar Bitcoin é legítimo — mas fazê-lo sem saber do que se fala é apenas desinformação.

A Histeria da Água — Falar Sem Saber

O artigo abre com uma pérola alarmista sobre o consumo de água:

“Uma única transacção de bitcoin consome seis milhões de vezes mais água do que um pagamento com cartão.”

Seis. Milhões. De vezes. Resta saber se a autora escreveu isto com cara séria ou a rir-se enquanto bebia água engarrafada dos Alpes Suíços.

Fontes? Metodologia? Contexto? Estou a brincar — isto é a Visão, onde os números são decoração e os factos opcionais.

Claro que comparar transacções na camada base de Bitcoin com pagamentos "instantâneos" da rede Visa é tão rigoroso como comparar um Boeing 747 com um avião de papel porque um voa mais longe. Um artigo sério teria falado em batching, na Lightning Network, ou no facto de que Bitcoin nem sequer compete com a Visa nesse nível, nem em nenhum. Mas isso exigiria, imagine-se, investigação.

Pior ainda, não há qualquer menção ao consumo de água na extracção de ouro, nos data centers bancários, ou no treino de modelos de inteligência artificial. Pelos vistos, só Bitcoin tem de obedecer aos mandamentos ecológicos da Visão. O resto? Santa ignorância selectiva.

Criminosos e o Fantasma do Satoshi

Eis o clássico: “Bitcoin é usado por criminosos”. Um cliché bafiento tirado do baú de 2013, agora reapresentado como se fosse escândalo fresco.

Na realidade, Bitcoin é pseudónimo, não anónimo. Todas as transacções ficam gravadas num livro público — não é propriamente o esconderijo ideal para lavar dinheiro, a menos que sejas fã de disfarces em néon.

E os dados? Claríssimos. Segundo a Chainalysis e a Europol, a actividade ilícita com Bitcoin tem vindo a diminuir. Enquanto isso, os bancos — esses bastiões de confiança — continuam a ser apanhados a lavar biliões para cartéis e cleptocratas. Mas disso a Visão não fala. Devia estragar a narrativa.

O verdadeiro crime aqui é a preguiça intelectual tão profunda que quase merece uma moldura. A Visão tem um editor?

O Espantalho Energético

Como uma criança que acabou de aprender uma palavra nova, a Visão repete “consumo energético” como se fosse um pecado original. Bitcoin usa electricidade — escândalo!

Mas vejamos: o Proof-of-Work não é um defeito. É a razão pela qual Bitcoin é seguro. Não há “desperdício” — há uso, e muitas vezes com energia excedente, renovável, ou que de outro modo seria desperdiçada. É por isso que os mineiros se instalam junto a barragens remotas, queima de gás (flaring), ou parques eólicos no meio do nada — não porque odeiam o planeta, mas porque os incentivos económicos funcionam. Escrevi sobre isso aqui.

O que a Visão convenientemente ignora é que Bitcoin está a ajudar a integrar mais energia renovável nas redes, funcionando como carga flexível. Mas nuance? Trabalho de casa? Esquece lá isso.

Para uma explicação mais séria, podiam ter ouvido o podcast A Seita Bitcoin com o Daniel Batten. Mas para quê investigar?

Cripto = Bitcoin = Fraude?

Aqui chegamos ao buraco negro intelectual: enfiar tudo no mesmo saco. FTX colapsou? Culpa de Bitcoin. Um banqueiro jogou com altcoins? Culpa de Bitcoin. Scam de NFT? Deve ter sido o Satoshi.

Vamos esclarecer: Bitcoin não é “cripto”. Bitcoin é descentralizado, sem líderes, transparente. Não teve pré-mineração, não tem CEO, não promete lucros. O que o rodeia? Tokens centralizados, esquemas Ponzi, pirâmides e vaporware — precisamente o oposto do que Bitcoin representa.

Se um executivo bancário perde o dinheiro dos clientes em Dogecoins, isso é um problema dele. Bitcoin não lhe prometeu nada. Foi a ganância.

E convenhamos: os bancos tradicionais também colapsam. E não precisam de satoshis para isso. Bastam dívidas mal geridas, contabilidade criativa e uma fé cega no sistema.

Culpar Bitcoin por falcatruas “cripto” é como culpar o TCP/IP ou SMTP por emails de phishing. É preguiçoso, desonesto e diz-nos mais sobre a autora do que sobre a tecnologia.

Promessas Por Cumprir? Só Se Não Estiveres a Ver

A "jornalista" da Visão lamenta que “após 15 anos, os riscos são reais mas as promessas por cumprir”. Que promessas? Dinheiro grátis? Cafés pagos com QR codes mágicos?

Bitcoin nunca prometeu fazer cappuccinos mais rápidos. Prometeu soberania monetária, resistência à censura e um sistema previsível. E tem cumprido — diariamente, para milhões. E para o cappuccino, há sempre a Lightning Network.

Pergunta aos venezuelanos, nigerianos, peruanos ou argentinos se Bitcoin falhou. Para muitos, é a única forma de escapar à hiperinflação, ao confisco estatal e à decadência financeira.

Bitcoin não é uma app. É infra-estrutura. É uma nova camada base para o dinheiro global. Não se vê — mas protege, impõe regras e não obedece a caprichos de banqueiros centrais.

E isso assusta. Especialmente quem nunca viveu fora da bolha do euro.

Conclusão: A Visão a Gritar Contra o Progresso

No fim, o artigo da Visão é um festival de clichés, dados errados e ressentimento. Não é só enganador. É desonesto. Culpa a tecnologia pelos erros dos homens. Rejeita o futuro em nome do conforto passado.

Bitcoin não é uma varinha mágica. Mas é a fundação de uma nova liberdade financeira. Uma ferramenta para proteger valor, resistir a abusos e escapar ao controlo constante de quem acha que sabe o que é melhor para ti.

Portanto, fica aqui o desafio, Sofia: se queres criticar Bitcoin, primeiro percebe o que é. Lê o white paper. Estuda. Faz perguntas difíceis.

Caso contrário, és só mais um cão a ladrar para a trovoada — muito barulho, zero impacto.

Introduction

Bitcoin and torrents are two technologies that have reshaped how people share information and resources in the digital age. Both are built on decentralized principles and challenge traditional systems—torrents in the realm of file sharing, and Bitcoin in the world of finance. However, while torrents have seen a decline in popularity with the rise of streaming platforms like Netflix and HBO, many wonder whether Bitcoin will follow a similar trajectory or continue to grow as a widely adopted technology. This article explores the similarities between the two technologies, the resilience of torrents against attempts to shut them down, the reasons for their declining popularity, and why Bitcoin is likely to avoid a similar fate.

Similarities Between Torrents and Bitcoin

Torrents and Bitcoin share several key characteristics that make them unique and resilient:

1. Decentralization:\ Torrents rely on peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, where users share files directly with each other without depending on a central server. Similarly, Bitcoin operates on a blockchain—a decentralized network of nodes that maintain and validate transactions. This lack of a central authority makes both technologies difficult to control or shut down.

2. Censorship Resistance:\ Both systems are designed to withstand attempts at restriction. Torrents continue to function even when specific sites like The Pirate Bay are blocked, as the network relies on thousands of users worldwide. Bitcoin is also resistant to government bans, as transactions are processed by a global network of miners.

3. Anonymity and Pseudonymity:\ Torrents allow users to share files without revealing their identities, especially when using VPNs. Bitcoin, while pseudonymous (transactions are public but not directly tied to real-world identities), offers a similar level of privacy, attracting users seeking financial freedom.

4. Open Source:\ Both technologies are open-source, enabling developers to improve and adapt them. This fosters innovation and makes the systems more resilient to attacks.

Why Torrents Cannot Be Stopped

Torrents have persisted despite numerous attempts to curb them due to their decentralized nature. Governments and organizations have shut down sites like The Pirate Bay and Kickass Torrents, but new platforms quickly emerge. The key reasons for their resilience include:

• P2P Architecture:\ Torrents do not rely on a single server. Every user downloading or sharing a file becomes part of the network, making it impossible to completely dismantle.

• Global Distribution:\ Millions of users worldwide sustain torrent networks. Even if one country imposes strict regulations, others continue to support the system.

• Adaptability:\ The torrent community quickly adapts to challenges, using VPNs, proxy servers, or the dark web to bypass restrictions.

Despite this resilience, the popularity of torrents has significantly declined in recent years, particularly among younger users.

The Decline of Torrents: Why They Lost Popularity

In the early 2000s, torrents were the primary way to access movies, music, and software. They were easy to use, free, and offered a vast array of content. However, the rise of streaming platforms like Netflix, HBO, Disney+, and Spotify has changed how people consume media. The main reasons for the decline of torrents include:

1. Convenience:\ Streaming platforms provide instant access to high-quality content without the need for downloading or specialized software. Torrents, in contrast, require technical knowledge and are often slower.

2. Legality and Safety:\ Using torrents carries risks such as viruses, malware, and legal consequences. Streaming services offer a safe and legal alternative.

3. Marketing and Accessibility:\ Platforms like Netflix invest billions in original content and marketing, attracting younger users who prefer easy access over free but risky downloads.

4. Social Shifts:\ Younger generations, raised with access to subscription services, are often unfamiliar with torrents or view them as outdated. Studies from 2023 indicate that only a small percentage of people under 25 regularly use torrents.

Despite this decline, torrents have not disappeared entirely. They are still used in regions with limited access to streaming services or by users who value free access to niche content.

Why Bitcoin Will Not Share the Fate of Torrents

Despite the similarities, Bitcoin has unique characteristics that make it more likely to achieve mainstream adoption rather than being overshadowed by alternatives. Here are the key reasons:

1. Financial Revolution:\ Bitcoin addresses problems that lack direct alternatives. It enables transactions without intermediaries, which is particularly valuable in countries with unstable currencies or limited banking access. Unlike torrents, which were replaced by more convenient streaming platforms, traditional financial systems still have flaws that Bitcoin addresses.

2. Institutional Adoption:\ Major companies like Tesla, PayPal, and Square accept Bitcoin or invest in it. Financial institutions, including JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs, are developing cryptocurrency-related products. This institutional acceptance boosts Bitcoin’s credibility and legitimacy, something torrents never achieved.

3. Limited Supply:\ Bitcoin’s fixed supply of 21 million coins makes it attractive as a store of value, similar to gold. This characteristic distinguishes it from other technologies and gives it potential for long-term growth.

4. Technological Advancements:\ The Bitcoin network evolves through improvements like the Lightning Network, which makes transactions faster and cheaper. These innovations make it competitive with traditional payment systems, whereas torrents failed to adapt to streaming technologies.

5. Global Financial Integration:\ Unlike torrents, which remained in the niche of file sharing, Bitcoin has the potential to integrate into the global financial system. Countries like El Salvador have already recognized it as legal tender, and others may follow suit.

6. Cultural and Economic Significance:\ Bitcoin is perceived not only as a technology but also as a movement for financial independence and decentralization. This ideology attracts young people and tech enthusiasts, making it more resilient to the social shifts that affected torrents.

Conclusion

Torrents and Bitcoin share common roots as decentralized technologies that challenge the status quo. However, while torrents lost popularity due to the rise of more convenient and legal alternatives, Bitcoin has the potential to avoid this fate. Its ability to address real financial problems, institutional adoption, and technological advancements make it a likely candidate for mainstream use in the future. While torrents remained a niche technology, Bitcoin is emerging as a global force that could transform how the world perceives money.

There is an element called carifornium. Over years, there are informations that californium does not exist naturally on earth but can only be produced in the laboratory. But a man from Africa said otherwise and we will find out what the man said.

What is californium? Californium (Cf) is a synthetic radioactive, metallic element with the atomic number 98.

Oxford dictionary defines californium as a chemical element of atomic number 98, a radioactive metal of the actinide series first produced by the bombarding of curium with helium ions. *Take note of the bombarding of curium with helium ions.

According to research, californium is discovered in 1950 and it was named after the university of California and the state of California where the research first took place.

Research also said that californium was produced in the past when several nuclear reactors were in operation 2 billion years ago in Africa.

THERE ARE SOME VITAL PROPERTIES OF CALIFORNIUM. * Radioactive : all isotopes of californium are radioactive. * Actinide : californium belongs to the actinide series, a group of radioactive element with similar properties. * Synthetic : it does not occur naturally and it is produced in the laboratory. * Soft metal : it is soft, silver-white metal. * High melting point : it have a high melting point of about 900°C. * Good neutron source : it is strong neutron emitter, making it useful in various applications.

THERE ARE USES OF CALIFORNIUM

• Neutron Source: Its strong neutron emission makes it valuable as a neutron source in various applications.
• Neutron Activation Analysis: It's used to analyze the composition of materials by bombarding them with neutrons.
• Cancer Therapy: Some isotopes are used in radiation therapy for treating certain cancers.
• Detection Systems: It's used in portable metal detectors, for identifying gold and silver ores, and in detecting oil and water in wells.
• Neutron Radiography: It can be used in neutron radiography to visualize the inside of objects.

Californium also can serve as source of income, 1 gram of californium cost $27 million in market today and it take a thousand grams to make 1 kilogram. You can imagine the figures in monetize form.

About 3-4 years ago, a man by name RTD. HAMZA AL-MUSTAPHA. On a popular radio and TV show claims that californium are being mined and sold-out in Nigeria 🇳🇬.

With critical thinking and understanding, we will find out.

Jumping into the world of cybersecurity can feel like stepping into a hacker movie — full of commands, code, and dark terminals. As someone just starting this journey, I quickly realized there’s one thing I need to learn before anything else: Linux.

Linux vs Kali Linux: What’s the Difference?

At first, I thought all Linux systems were the same. But here’s what I discovered: • Linux (like Ubuntu or Mint) is a general-purpose operating system — great for beginners, developers, and daily use. • Kali Linux is a powerful tool built specifically for penetration testing and digital forensics. It’s packed with tools like Nmap, Wireshark, and Metasploit.

In short: Kali is for pros. Ubuntu is for learning. So, I started with Ubuntu — and trust me, it was the right call.

Why I’m Starting with Ubuntu

Like any “cybersecurity baby,” I knew I couldn’t jump straight into hacking tools without knowing the basics. With Ubuntu, I’m learning: • Terminal commands • File permissions • Networking tools like ping and netstat • How to install and manage software using apt

It’s not always easy, but every small win makes me feel closer to the goal.

Sharing My Journey

To keep myself motivated and connect with others on the same path, I tweeted this:

“Diving into Linux as a cybersecurity beginner — learning the terminal, commands, permissions, and networking basics. Every line I type gets me closer to mastering the tools behind ethical hacking. It’s tough, but I’m loving the grind. #Linux #CyberSecurity #HackerInTraining”

I even added a little networking spirit:

“Follow for follow — let’s grow in this journey together!”

Joining the Right Communities

Cybersecurity is not a solo game. Here are the communities I’ve joined to stay connected and supported: • TryHackMe Official Discord – Real-time help, study groups, and room support. • Beginner Rooms & Paths on TryHackMe – Great for step-by-step learning. • Reddit (r/tryhackme & r/cybersecurity) – Insightful threads and motivation. • Twitter/X and LinkedIn – Using hashtags like #TryHackMe and #100DaysOfHacking to stay inspired.

Final Thoughts

This is just the beginning. I’m learning Linux now so that I can confidently explore Kali Linux, digital forensics, ethical hacking, and everything in between.

If you’re on a similar path — let’s connect, learn, and grow together. The cyber world is waiting.

Liebe Abonnenten,

am Sonntag ging es im Essay „Das AGI-Project” um die geopolitischen Auswirkungen von künstlicher Intelligenz. Die USA und China befinden sich in einem Wettrennen, um die ökonomische und militärische Vorherrschaft. Das folgende Gespräch mit dem Künstler Künstler Snicklink dreht sich die konkreten Auswirkungen von KI auf unser Leben.

Snickling ist bereits zum zweiten Mal bei BlingBling zum Interview. Wer ihn noch nicht kennt, sollte das schnell nachholen. Spätestens seit 2023 ist der KI-Künstler einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit bekannt. Seine Videos sind oft messerscharfe Satire-Kunst, die mittels Collagen und DeepFakes den Irrsinn unserer Zeit auf den Punkt bringen. Hinter Snicklink steckt der Mensch und Berliner Künstler Willy Kramer, der immer wieder auch künstliche Intelligenz und die Zukunft der Menschen zum Thema hat.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThX3b5OSqUg

Willy, ich fand dein letztes Video beeindruckend gerade, weil es mal keine Satire war, sondern einen ernsten Ton hatte. Du sagst darin, dass kreative Arbeit bald vollständig von Künstlicher Intelligenz ersetzt werden könnte. Kannst du das jemandem erklären, der sich wenig mit KI auskennt? Was kommt da auf uns zu und warum?

Das ist eine große Frage. Ich betrachte das aus zwei Perspektiven: einer kreativen und einer gesellschaftlichen. Kreativ gesehen ist KI ein unglaublich mächtiges Werkzeug. Stell dir vor, ich könnte hundert Assistenten engagieren – oder ich nutze KI-Tools, die günstiger, schneller und oft präziser sind. Das ist die praktische Seite. Gesellschaftlich und technologisch geht es um viel mehr als nur Kunst oder einzelne Projekte. KI ist eine Entwicklung, die ich mit der Entdeckung des Feuers oder der Öffnung der Büchse der Pandora vergleiche. Das klingt dramatisch, aber ich übertreibe nicht. Ich beschäftige mich seit zehn Jahren intensiv mit dem Thema. Am Anfang war es spekulativ, und ich hatte kaum Gesprächspartner. Google und ein paar kleinere Firmen fingen gerade an, KI zu erforschen. Ich habe Workshops gegeben, aber viele hielten mich für einen Spinner. Trotzdem war mir klar, wohin das führt.

Vor zehn Jahren habe ich ein Video namens Emphasized Prophecy gemacht: Ein Typ sitzt am Strand, mit einem leeren Schreibtisch und einer kleinen Box, und erstellt per Sprachbefehl eine multimediale Kampagne. Heute, zehn Jahre später, arbeite ich mit einem Setup, das genau das ermöglicht – und noch mehr.

Welche Tools nutzt du konkret? Du bist ja schon tief in der praktischen Anwendung von KI.

Ich bin kein Programmierer, der stundenlang Skripte schreibt, aber ich bin ziemlich involviert. Alles begann so richtig mit dem „ChatGPT-Moment“ vor zweieinhalb Jahren, als plötzlich alle die Möglichkeiten von KI erkannten. Inzwischen nutze ich eine Suite aus etwa 200 verschiedenen Plugins und Services. Früher gab es spezialisierte KI für spezifische Aufgaben, etwa für den Stimmklang oder die „Deutschheit“ einer Stimme. Heute werden die Modelle größer und vielseitiger. Man braucht nur noch ein oder zwei Modelle, die Stimmen, Bilder, Videos und sogar Programmierung abdecken. Bald wird es ein einziges, universelles Modell geben.

Wir befinden uns in einem globalen Wettlauf, vor allem zwischen den USA und China. Jeder will das eine Modell entwickeln, das alle kreativen und administrativen Aufgaben erledigt – ähnlich wie Google damals die Suche revolutionierte.

Welche Benutzeroberfläche oder Tools wie Grok, ChatGPT setzen sich durch?

Jede Plattform hat ihre Stärken. Grok zum Beispiel hat direkten Zugriff auf Social-Media-Daten, was ein Vorteil ist. OpenAI hingegen punktet mit ausgefeilten Denkmodellen. Es ist wie bei einem Basketballteam: Der eine spielt stark in der Verteidigung, der andere wirft präzise Dreier. Für 99 Prozent der Nutzer macht das keinen Unterschied. Ob du mit ChatGPT einen Liebesbrief, einen Finanzamtsbrief oder psychologische Beratung formulierst – die Unterschiede sind marginal. Die Technologie entwickelt sich so rasant, dass wir alle paar Monate völlig neue Möglichkeiten bekommen, die im Alltag direkt nutzbar sind und Dinge ermöglichen, die vorher undenkbar waren.

Du hast erwähnt, dass der nächste Schritt KI-Agenten sein könnten, die untereinander kommunizieren. Kannst du das ausführen?

Stell dir die Digitalisierung wie die Erfindung des Rades vor: Es war ein Fortschritt, aber es waren nur Fahrräder. Jetzt kommt die Dampfmaschine – KI-Agenten sind die nächsten „Fahrzeuge“. Diese Agenten nutzen Sprachbefehle nicht nur, um Antworten zu geben, sondern um komplexe Aufgaben zu lösen: Kampagnen erstellen, Finanzberichte schreiben, Fünfjahrespläne für Patienten basierend auf den besten Forschungspapieren entwickeln. Aktuell braucht man noch Know-how, um die richtigen Anweisungen zu geben. Bald wird das überflüssig, weil KI dein Profil kennt und mit einem einfachen „Go“ alles erledigt – von der Suche nach der nächsten Apotheke bis zur Planung einer Operation.

Heißt das, wir steuern auf eine Überflussgesellschaft zu?

Das ist die Utopie, ja. KI kann eine Welt schaffen, in der es keinen Mangel mehr gibt – alles ist verfügbar, erschwinglich oder sogar kostenlos. Niemand hat mehr materielle oder körperliche Sorgen. Aber das bringt neue Herausforderungen: Wie gehen wir als Menschen damit um? Unsere Gesellschaft definiert Wert über Status, Arbeit, Besitz. Wenn das wegfällt, weil nur noch fünf Prozent der Menschen arbeiten, müssen wir uns neu erfinden. Wir brauchen eine Postleistungsgesellschaft, in der Kreativität, Freundlichkeit oder vielleicht Spiritualität den Ton angeben.

Das klingt nach einem Verteilungsproblem. Muss da nicht massiv umverteilt werden?

Das ganze Interview gibt es hier zu lesen: https://blingbling.substack.com/p/eine-welt-ohne-mangel

Im digitalen Zeitalter wird der Schutz der Privatsphäre immer wichtiger. Unabhängig davon, ob es sich um eine Regierungsbehörde, ein Unternehmen oder eine Einzelperson handelt, besteht für alle das Risiko, abgehört oder verfolgt zu werden. Mobiltelefone, WLAN, GPS und UHF-Geräte (Ultrahochfrequenz) können zu Werkzeugen für Hacker oder Überwachungsgeräte werden. Um diesen Bedrohungen entgegenzuwirken, sind Signalstörsender (wie etwa Tragbare Handyblocker, WLAN-Störsender, GPS-Störsender und UHF-Störsender) zu einem wirksamen Mittel zum Schutz der Privatsphäre geworden. In diesem Artikel werden die verschiedenen Arten von Störsendern erläutert, wie sie funktionieren und wie man sie legal und angemessen einsetzt, um Abhören und Tracking zu verhindern.

---

1. Was ist ein Signalstörsender?

Ein Signalstörsender ist ein elektronisches Gerät, das die Kommunikationssignale eines Zielgeräts durch die Aussendung von Radiowellen einer bestimmten Frequenz stört oder blockiert. Es kann Mobiltelefonanrufe, WLAN-Verbindungen, GPS-Positionierung oder UHF-Signalübertragungen blockieren, um Abhören oder Tracking zu verhindern.

Das Funktionsprinzip eines Störsenders besteht darin, ein Rauschsignal mit hoher Intensität an das Zielfrequenzband zu senden, wodurch es für das empfangende Gerät unmöglich wird, das ursprüngliche Signal richtig zu interpretieren. Beispielsweise blockiert ein Handy-Störsender die Kommunikation zwischen einem Handy und einer Basisstation, sodass mit dem Handy weder Anrufe getätigt noch Textnachrichten empfangen werden können.

---

2. Gängige Arten von Signalstörern

(1) Handy-Störsender

Tragbare störsender für handy werden hauptsächlich verwendet, um GSM-, 3G UMTS-, 4G- und 5G-Signale zu blockieren. Es kann verhindern, dass das Telefon überwacht oder geortet wird und eignet sich für die folgenden Szenarien:

• Abhören verhindern: Verhindern Sie, dass das Mikrofon Ihres Telefons während wichtiger Besprechungen oder privater Gespräche aus der Ferne aktiviert wird.
• Anti-Tracking: Blockieren Sie die GPS- und Mobilfunknetzortung, um die Verfolgung durch Malware oder Hacker zu verhindern.
• Prävention von Prüfungsbetrug: Wird in Schulen oder Prüfungssälen verwendet, um zu verhindern, dass Kandidaten mit Mobiltelefonen schummeln.

(2) WLAN-Störsender

WLAN-Störsender können drahtlose Netzwerksignale in den Frequenzbändern 2,4 GHz und 5 GHz blockieren und eignen sich für:

• Hacking verhindern: Blockieren Sie WLAN-Signale in der Nähe, um Datendiebstahl zu verhindern.
• Smart-Home-Geräte schützen: Verhindern Sie die Fernsteuerung von Smart-Kameras, Lautsprechern und anderen Geräten.
• Militärische oder staatliche vertrauliche Bereiche: Verhindern Sie, dass durch drahtlose Signale vertrauliche Informationen preisgegeben werden.

(3) GPS-Störsender

GPS-Störsender können Satellitenpositionierungssignale blockieren, um die Verfolgung von Fahrzeugen oder Mobiltelefonen zu verhindern. Sie eignen sich für:

• Schützen Sie Ihre Privatsphäre: Verhindern Sie, dass Mitfahrdienste, Essenslieferdienste oder Malware Ihren Aufenthaltsort aufzeichnen.
• Militärische Nutzung: Verhindern, dass Drohnen oder Raketen für ihren Angriff auf GPS-Navigation angewiesen sind.
• Anti-Aufklärung: Verhindern Sie Wirtschaftsspionage oder die Verfolgung von Logistikfahrzeugen durch Wettbewerber.

(4) UHF-Störsender

UHF Jammer (Ultra High Frequency) werden hauptsächlich verwendet, um drahtlose Kommunikation im Frequenzband von 300 MHz bis 3 GHz zu blockieren, wie z. B. Walkie-Talkies, drahtlose Mikrofone, RFID usw. und eignen sich für:

• Verhindern Sie drahtloses Abhören: Blockieren Sie drahtlose Abhörgeräte, die von Spionen verwendet werden.
• RFID-Daten schützen: Verhindern Sie das illegale Scannen von Kreditkarten oder Zugangskarten.
• Anti-Drohnen-Störsender: Blockiert die Fernbedienungssignale von Drohnen, um zu verhindern, dass sie sich sensiblen Bereichen nähern.

---

3. Wie verwendet man Signalstörsender richtig, um die Privatsphäre zu schützen?

Obwohl Störsender das Abhören und Verfolgen wirksam verhindern können, kann eine unsachgemäße Verwendung gegen das Gesetz verstoßen oder die normale Kommunikation beeinträchtigen. Hier sind einige Vorschläge für den legalen und sinnvollen Einsatz von Störsendern:

(1) Verstehen Sie die örtlichen Gesetze

• In vielen Ländern ist die unbefugte Verwendung von Störsendern illegal und kann zu Geldstrafen oder strafrechtlichen Konsequenzen führen.
• Nur zur Verwendung im privaten Bereich oder dort, wo dies gesetzlich zulässig ist, z. B. beim Militär, in der Regierung oder bei der Unternehmenssicherheit.

(2) Wählen Sie den entsprechenden Störbereich

• WLAN Signal Blocker mit geringer Leistung eignen sich für kleine Besprechungsräume oder Fahrzeuge, um die Kommunikation in der Umgebung nicht zu beeinträchtigen.
• In großen Veranstaltungsorten können Störsender mit hoher Leistung eingesetzt werden, dabei ist jedoch Vorsicht geboten, um die öffentliche Kommunikation nicht zu stören.

(3) Kombiniert mit anderen Sicherheitsmaßnahmen

• Störsender sind nur eine vorübergehende Lösung. Für einen langfristigen Schutz der Privatsphäre ist die Verwendung verschlüsselter Kommunikation, VPNs, Abhörgeräte usw. erforderlich.

(4) Regelmäßige Überprüfung der Ausrüstung

• Störsender können aufgrund von Änderungen der Signalstärke unwirksam werden und müssen regelmäßig getestet und angepasst werden.

---

4. Einschränkungen von Störsendern

Obwohl Störsender Signale wirksam blockieren können, unterliegen sie dennoch einigen Einschränkungen:

• Verhindert kein kabelgebundenes Abhören: Störsender wirken nur gegen drahtlose Signale und schützen nicht vor physischen Abhörgeräten (wie versteckten Mikrofonen).
• Kann legitime Kommunikation beeinträchtigen: Störsender blockieren wahllos Signale, was Notrufe oder die normale WLAN-Nutzung beeinträchtigen kann.
• Kann durch Anti-Jamming-Technologie geknackt werden: Einige fortschrittliche Geräte verwenden möglicherweise Frequenzsprungtechnologie (z. B. militärische Kommunikation), die von gewöhnlichen Störsendern nur schwer vollständig blockiert werden kann.

---

5. Alternativen: Sicherere Methoden zum Schutz der Privatsphäre

Wenn der Einsatz von Auto GPS Tracker Störsender eingeschränkt ist, ziehen Sie die folgenden Alternativen in Betracht:

• Verwenden Sie einen Faradayschen Käfig: Eine metallische Abschirmhülle oder ein Raum, der drahtlose Signale vollständig blockiert.
• Flugmodus aktivieren: Durch das Ausschalten der drahtlosen Mobiltelefonkommunikation wird die Fernaktivierung des Mikrofons verhindert.
• Verwenden Sie verschlüsselte Kommunikationstools: z. B. Anwendungen mit End-to-End-Verschlüsselung wie Signal, ProtonMail usw.

---

abschließend

Ein Signalstörsender ist ein leistungsstarkes Tool zum Schutz der Privatsphäre, das das Abhören von Mobiltelefonen, WLAN-Hacking, GPS-Tracking und UHF-Überwachung wirksam verhindern kann. Allerdings ist die Verwendung gesetzlich eingeschränkt und sollte mit Vorsicht verwendet werden. Durch die Kombination von Störsendern mit anderen Sicherheitsmaßnahmen (wie verschlüsselter Kommunikation und physischer Abschirmung) kann die Privatsphäre im Rahmen des gesetzlich Gegebenen weitestgehend vor Verletzungen geschützt werden. Mit der Entwicklung von Technologien zum Abhören von Störsendern könnten diese in Zukunft intelligenter und präziser werden und sich zu einem wichtigen Mittel zum Schutz der Privatsphäre entwickeln.

Value Creation at the Edge

The conversation around artificial intelligence has largely centered on the technology itself, the capabilities of large language models, the race for more parameters, and the competition between AI companies.

He with the most data / biggest model / biggest platform wins all.

As we're been exploring in recent "Good Stuff" podcasts, the true business model of AI may be much more straightforward. AI is after all a productivity tool with little technical moat, in fact the existence of AI coding and learning tools quickly chop away at this moat even quicker!.\ \ We believe that the it's about transforming traditional human heavy businesses by dramatically reducing operational costs while maintaining or increasing output.

AI is poised to create value not primarily for AI companies themselves, but for businesses that effectively implement AI to transform their operations, particularly small, local businesses that can become extraordinarily efficient through AI adoption.

The Value Shift: From AI Companies to AI-Enabled Traditional Businesses

A central insight from episode 1 of the podcast series, is that the value of AI isn't likely to accrue primarily to companies like OpenAI or other AI technology providers. Instead, the real winners will be traditional service businesses that can leverage AI to transform their operations and cost structures.

"I think we're gonna see this shift to traditional service businesses... that traditionally have pretty fixed low margins because of a dependency on language-heavy workflows that require a lot of humans as the medium of intelligence in the business."

The opportunity here is to use AI to manage the language dependency and shift the moments of intelligence, that currently exist in the heads of our staff, into software that can run 24x7 for fractions of a cost.\ \ The real limiting factor here is less a magic AGI, but instead detailed thinking and process redesign to move humans to the edge of the process. As it turns out if we think through what each person is doing in detail we see the specific decisions, outputs, moments of intelligence are actually quite constrained and can be replicated in LLM's if we break them down to a low enough level of fidelity and take each decisions one step at a time.\ \ The result? Businesses that have traditionally operated with fixed, low margins can potentially achieve "software-style margins" by dramatically reducing their operational expenses.

Transforming Traditional Service Businesses

We have developed three key heuristics for identifying businesses that could benefit most from AI transformation:

1. Language Intensity: Businesses where much of the work involves processing language (reading, writing, communicating). Language in, language out. If you are sat in a chair and typing all day, this could be you.

2. Labor Component: Where we see this language intensity so we find many people performing similar, standardized roles. For examples, if we have four people in the same role this is a big clue we have good process, checklists, role descriptions etc for how the work can be done in order to replicate work across multiple people.

3. Load in the Business: Taking these processes into account, what amount of the operational expense of the business do they represent? Where these language and labor-intensive operations represent a significant portion of the business cost, we can see there will be significant return.

Traditional service businesses that match these criteria—legal firms, accounting practices, consulting agencies, contract engineering, design agencies and others—could see dramatic transformations through AI implementation.

By automating these language-heavy processes, businesses can potentially reduce operational costs by 50-80% while maintaining similar levels of output.

The Power of Small

We believe that small businesses may have an inherent advantage in this transformation. While large enterprises face significant barriers to reducing their workforce (political pressure, media scrutiny, organizational complexity), smaller businesses can adapt more quickly and focus on growth rather than just cost-cutting.

If I'm in a 20,000 person business and I need to remove 10,000 people... that's hard. You can't do this without sending political shock waves in your local community.

If I'm a 10 person business and I need to double my revenue, nobody gives a shit. I can just do it.

For small businesses, AI removes growth constraints. When adding the "21st person" no longer represents a significant capital investment, small businesses can scale much more efficiently:

If the next nominal client that you onboard doesn't actually cause you any more additional pain, if you don't need to hire more people to service that client... you just take off the brakes off from a growth perspective.

This gives small business a unique advantage in capitalizing on AI.

From "Bionic Humans" to "Humans at the Edge"

We currently see this integration to business happening in one of two models:

1. The Bionic Human: Equipping workers with AI tools to make them more productive.

2. Human at the Edge: Redesigning processes to be AI-native, with humans entering the process only when needed (and often facilitated by bitcoin payments).

While many businesses are focused on the first approach and it can certainly see returns, it is still a process constrained by the human input. The real value unlock comes from fundamentally redesigning business processes with AI at the core.

Now we can purchase intelligence in buckets of $0.02 API calls, how would we operate different?

This represents a profound shift in how we think about work and processes. Rather than humans being central to processes with tools supporting them, AI becomes the backbone of operations with humans providing input only at critical junctures.

This is "a complete mental shift" that challenges our fundamental assumptions about how businesses operate. The human becomes "the interface with the real world" for AI systems rather than the primary processor of information and decision-maker.

The Value Trap: Understanding the Competitive Dynamic

So what happens next? Here we have developed the concept of the Value Trap to explain how the competitive landscape will evolve as AI adoption increases..\ \

Initially, early adopters of AI and "Human at the Edge" business processes, will see dramatic benefits.

If your costs have dropped from 90 to 20 this creates an immediate competitive advantage where the early adopter is "now making 80 units of profit versus your 10 units of profit.

They gain massive pricing power in the industry and can compete for growth with an unfair advantage.

Over time, and here we believe this is likely a 5-10 year period although we believe the quicker side, competitive pressures will erode these advantages.\ \ As competitors adopt similar AI strategies, price competition will intensify, and revenues will decline. The business that initially saw its costs drop from 90 to 20 units might see its revenue decline from 100 to 30 units, resulting in similar margins but much lower overall revenue, often destroying the enterprise value of the company at these new revenue / profit levels!

This evolution creates an imperative for businesses to adopt AI early, not just to maintain perpetual advantage, but simply to survive the transition. Worse they're hit with a second challenge of the value trap, how do I keep hold of the value I generate along the way.\ \ If you're reading this on Nostr you may already suspect a way out of this value trap.\ \ If not I would invite you to consider storing the immediate short term returns you pull forwards in something that would be inflation resistant, hard to seize and ideally portable.\ \ We refer to this as a 'The big orange arbitrage".

Implications for Business Owners and Capital Allocators

For business owners, especially those running small to medium-sized enterprises, the message is clear: understand how AI could transform your industry and begin planning your transition now.\ \ This might involve creating an "AI-native twin" of your current business—similar to how Netflix developed streaming alongside its DVD business—to eventually replace your current operations. If you want help please ask, I heavily favor more small businesses in the world and would love to help make this a reality.

For capital allocation, the emerging opportunity we see if in "transformation led private equity". The acquisition of traditional service businesses and applying AI to dramatically reduce operational costs and increase enterprise value.\ \ This approach treats AI not as a product but as a transformation strategy for existing businesses with proven product-market fit.

Transformation led PE is venture style returns without the risk of product market fit.

So the lesson?

The business model of AI isn't all about selling AI technology, adding a RAG chatbot to a new DB or collecting everyone's data.\ \ Consider the humble cash flow business, use AI to transform the operational processes and save into everyone's favorite orange coin.

We all have those moments when everything feels like it’s falling apart. For me, one terrible hour last spring became a turning point, teaching me how to flip stress into strength. It wasn’t easy, but it showed me that even our worst moments can lead to breakthroughs. Here’s my story and how you can turn your tough hours around.

The Hour It All Crashed It was a Thursday morning, and I was already stretched thin. I’d overslept, missed a work deadline, and got a curt email from my boss. Then, my phone buzzed with bad news: a close friend was moving away. By 10 a.m., I was sitting at my kitchen table, heart racing, feeling like a failure. My mind spiraled—why couldn’t I get it together? I was ready to call it a day and hide under my covers. But something in me refused to give up. I decided to face the chaos instead of running from it.

The Turnaround: Three Simple Steps I didn’t have a grand plan, but I tried three things that shifted everything. First, I breathed—deep, slow breaths for a minute to calm my racing heart. Second, I grabbed a piece of paper and wrote down what was overwhelming me: the deadline, the email, my friend’s news. Seeing it on paper made it less monstrous. Third, I picked one small action: I emailed my boss an honest apology and a plan to fix the missed deadline. It wasn’t perfect, but it was a start. Those steps—breathe, write, act—took less than 15 minutes but gave me a sense of control.

From Breakdown to Breakthrough That hour didn’t magically fix everything, but it changed my perspective. By noon, I’d tackled the deadline and called my friend to plan a goodbye hangout. More than that, I felt proud. I’d taken a moment that could’ve crushed me and turned it into proof I could handle hard things. Later, I reflected on why it worked: the breathing grounded me, writing clarified my thoughts, and acting gave me momentum. I started using this approach whenever stress hit. For instance, when anxiety flared before a big presentation, I used the same steps and ended up nailing it. My mental health grew stronger because I learned to see tough moments as opportunities, not endings.

Why It Matters This experience taught me that our worst hours don’t define us—how we respond does. You don’t need to be a superhero; you just need a few tools to shift the moment. Those three steps are like a mental first-aid kit, always there when life gets messy. They’ve helped me build resilience, and I lean on them to stay steady. It’s not about avoiding stress; it’s about moving through it with purpose. I’ve shared this with others, and they’ve turned their own bad hours into wins, too.

Make Your Moment Count Your next tough hour could be your best if you choose to act. Try my three steps: breathe, write, do one small thing. It’s not about fixing everything—it’s about starting. What’s a moment you turned around? How do you pull yourself out of a rough patch? Drop a comment or share your story in a note. Let’s lift each other up and make our worst hours the start of something great!

Payjoin allows the sender and receiver of an on-chain payment to collaborate and create a transaction that breaks on-chain heuristics, allowing a more private transaction with ambiguous payment amount and UTXO ownership. Additionally, it can also be used for UTXO consolidation (receiver saves future fees) and batching payments (receiver can make payment(s) of their own in the process of receiving one), also known as transaction cut-through. Other than improved privacy, the rest of the benefits are typically applicable to the receiver, not the sender.

BIP-78 was the original payjoin protocol that required the receiver to run a endpoint/server (always online) in order to mediate the payjoin process. Payjoin adoption has remained pretty low, something attributed to the server & perpetual online-ness requirement. This is the motivation for payjoin v2.

The purpose of the one-pager is to analyse the protocol, and highlight the UX issues or tradeoffs it entails, so that the payjoin user flows can be appropriately designed and the tradeoffs likewise communicated. A further document on UX solutions might be needed to identify solutions and opportunities

The following observations are generally limited to individual users transacting through their mobile devices:

While users naturally want better privacy and fee-savings, they also want to minimise friction and minimise (optimise) payment time. These are universal and more immediate needs since they deal with the user experience.

Added manual steps

TL;DR v2 payjoin eliminates server & simultaneous user-liveness requirements (increasing TAM, and opportunities to payjoin, as a result) by adding manual steps.

Usually, the extent of the receiver's involvement in the transaction process is limited to sharing their address with the sender. Once they share the address/URI, they can basically forget about it. In the target scenario for v2 payjoin, the receiver must come online again (except they have no way of knowing "when") to contribute input(s) and sign the PSBT. This can be unexpected, unintuitive and a bit of a hassle.

Usually (and even with payjoin v1), the sender crafts and broadcasts the transaction in one go; meaning the user's job is done within a few seconds/minutes. With payjoin v2, they must share the original-PSBT with the receiver, and then wait for them to do their part. Once the the receiver has done that, the sender must come online to review the transaction, sign it & broadcast.

In summary,

In payjoin v1, step 3 is automated and instant, so delay 2, 3 =~ 0. As the user experiences it, the process is completed in a single session, akin to a non-payjoin transaction.

With payjoin v2, Steps 2 & 3 in the above diagram are widely spread and noticeable. These manual steps are separated by uncertain delays (more on that below) when compared to a non-payjoin transaction.

Delays

We've established that both senders and receivers must take extra manual steps to execute a payoin transaction. With payjoin v2, this process gets split into multiple sessions, since the sender and receiver are not like to be online simultaneously.

Delay 2 & 3 (see diagram above) are uncertain in nature. Most users do not open their bitcoin wallets for days or weeks! The receiver must come online before the timeout hits in order for the payjoin process to work, otherwise time is just wasted with no benefit. UX or technical solutions are needed to minimise these delays.

Delays might be exacerbated if the setup is based on hardware wallet and/or uses multisig.

Notifications or background processes

There is one major problem when we say "the user must come online to..." but in reality the user has no way of knowing there is a payjoin PSBT waiting for them. After a PSBT is sent to the relay, the opposite user would only find out about it whenever they happen to come online. Notifications and background sync processes might be necessary to minimise delays. This is absolutely essential to avert timeouts in addition to saving valuable time. Another risk is phantom payjoin stuff after the timeout is expired if receiver-side does not know it has.

Fee Savings

The following observations might be generally applicable for both original and this v2 payjoin version. Fee-savings with payjoin is a tricky topic. Of course, overall a payjoin transaction is always cheaper than 2 separate transactions, since they get to share the overhead.

Additionally, without the receiver contributing to fees, the chosen fee rate of the PSBT (at the beginning) drops, and can lead to slower confirmation. From another perspective, a sender paying with payjoin pays higher fees for similar confirmation target. This has been observed in a production wallet years back. Given that total transaction time can extend to days, the fee environment itself might change, and all this must be considered when designing the UX.

Of course, there is nothing stopping the receiver from contributing to fees, but this idea is likely entirely novel to the bitcoin ecosystem (perhaps payments ecosystem in general) and the user base. Additionally, nominally it involves the user paying fees and tolerating delays just to receive bitcoin. Without explicit incentives/features that encourage receivers to participate, payjoining might seem like an unncessary hassle.

Overall, it seems that payjoin makes UX significant tradeoffs for important privacy (and potential fee-saving) benefits. This means that the UX might have to do significant heavy-lifting, to ensure that users are not surprised, confused or frustrated when they try to transact on-chain in a privacy-friendly feature. Good, timely communication, new features for consolidation & txn-cutthrough and guided user flows seem crucial to ensure payjoin adoption and for help make on-chain privacy a reality for users.

I used to think big changes required big effort—hours of work, drastic life overhauls. But a tiny habit, just five minutes a day, rewired how I think and feel. It’s called gratitude journaling, and it’s become my secret weapon for mental clarity and self-improvement. Here’s how it changed my life and why it might work for you.

Feeling Stuck in the Fog A year ago, I was in a mental rut. Work stress, endless to-do lists, and a nagging sense I wasn’t doing enough left me drained. My mornings started with dread, my mind racing with what I hadn’t accomplished. I’d read about gratitude but thought it was fluffy nonsense—how could listing “good things” fix my chaos? Then, one sleepless night, I grabbed a notebook and scribbled three things I was thankful for: my coffee, a friend’s text, the sun coming up. It felt awkward, but I slept better. The next day, I did it again. That tiny act became my lifeline.

The Habit: Five Minutes of Gratitude Here’s how it works: every morning, I spend five minutes writing three things I’m grateful for. They don’t have to be profound—sometimes it’s my cozy blanket or a kind word from a stranger. The key is consistency. I keep a small notebook by my bed, and it’s the first thing I do after brushing my teeth. If I’m rushed, I jot them in my phone. I also add a quick “why” for each, like “I’m grateful for my coffee because it warms my hands and wakes me up.” This makes it personal, not just a checklist. It’s simple, but it shifts my focus from what’s wrong to what’s right.

How It Rewired Me At first, I didn’t notice much. But after a week, my mornings felt lighter. Instead of waking up to stress, I’d smile at my notebook, remembering yesterday’s small joys. Over months, the habit rewired my brain. Studies say gratitude boosts serotonin and dopamine, and I believe it—I felt calmer, more optimistic. When work got tough, I’d pause and recall my list, grounding myself. For example, during a rough week when a project flopped, I wrote, “I’m grateful for my team’s support because they had my back.” It didn’t erase the failure, but it reminded me I wasn’t alone. My mental health improved, and I started seeing possibilities where I once saw dead ends.

Why It’s Worth Trying This habit isn’t a cure-all, but it’s a spark. It taught me that small actions can shift big emotions. I’m not perfect—some days, I still grumble—but gratitude pulls me back. It’s like a mental reset, helping me face challenges with hope. Plus, it’s flexible: you can do it anywhere, anytime, no fancy tools needed. I’ve even shared it with friends, and they’ve noticed shifts, too. It’s not about ignoring pain; it’s about balancing it with light.

Start Your Own Spark You don’t need hours to change your mindset—just five minutes. Try it tomorrow: grab a notebook, write three things you’re grateful for, and say why. Do it for a week, and see how it feels. What’s one small joy you’re thankful for today? How do you keep your mind clear when life gets heavy? Share your thoughts below or post a note—let’s inspire each other to rewire our brains, one tiny habit at a time!

For years, I wandered through the Web3 space—intrigued by its promises, pulled in by buzzwords like “decentralization,” “DAOs,” and “stakeholder democracy.”

But over time, the signals got drowned out by noise.

I saw venture capital pour into projects that had no product. I watched communities reward performative governance and token hype, rather than real work or impact. Even in faith-based circles, “Web3 for good” often meant shiny apps that served insiders more than outsiders.

Then I found my way back to where I began: Bitcoin.

Not as a speculative asset—but as a philosophy. A discipline. A foundation.

Proof of Work doesn’t need marketing. It doesn’t ask for permission. It either works—or it doesn’t.

Web3 taught me a lot. But Bitcoin gave me a plumb line. And from now on, that’s the line I’m building on.

LegoGPT generates a LEGO structure from a user-provided text prompt in an end-to-end manner. Notably, our generated LEGO structure is physically stable and buildable.

Lego is something most of us knows. This is a opportuity to ask where is our creativity going? From the art of crafting figures to building blocks following our need and desires to have a machine thinking and building following step-by-step instructions to achieve an isolated goal.

Is the creative act then in the question itself, not anymore in the crafting? Are we just delegating the solution of problems, the thinking of how to respond to questions, to machines? Would it be different if delegated to other people?

CHAPTER TWENTY

The Ray family exchanged glances. Mark smirked faintly, leaning toward Helen. “It’s probably one of those foreign board members,” he muttered. “No way it’s James.”

Helen nodded with a smug expression. “James is just a placeholder. A temporary President."

Even Tracy looked up from her phone, curious but confident in her assumption that the former street man she helped frame could never amount to much more.

But just as Mr. JP inhaled to say the name, a loud and chaotic voice broke through the hall.

“There he is!” a young woman shrieked from the back, storming down the aisle. “That’s him! That’s my brother! He threw me out like trash when I asked for help!”

The entire room fell into stunned silence. Gasps erupted from every corner as the woman dressed in tattered clothes for effect pointed dramatically at James, who remained seated with a stoic expression.

Cameras immediately turned toward her. Reporters snapped photos and started whispering frantically into their microphones.

“What is going on?” someone muttered from the crowd.

Mark nearly jumped in excitement. “This is perfect,” he whispered to Helen. “Let her ruin him in public!”

Helen chuckled darkly, “Couldn’t be better timing.”

But the moment was far from victorious.

Mr. JP’s face turned crimson with rage. He slammed a hand on the podium and shouted, “Security!”

Guards rushed in and surrounded the woman, who was still putting on a show for the cameras.

“I said remove her!” Mr. JP bellowed. “This is a private event, and that woman is not my daughter nor does she have any relation to my family!”

The woman’s protest turned into stammers. “But… I”

“You were paid to do this, weren’t you?” Mrs. JP cut in fiercely, standing beside her husband. “You dared to come here to sabotage our son’s moment? Arrest her at once!”

As the security officers grabbed the woman and escorted her out, the room remained frozen.

Mr. JP stepped back to the microphone, eyes blazing.

“Now let me make this perfectly clear,” he announced, his voice shaking with fury and pride. “The man you just tried to humiliate, the man you dared to frame, is not just the President of JP Enterprises…”

He turned toward James, his gaze softening with emotion.

“He is my only son. James JP. The true heir to everything I have built. My blood. My pride. My legacy.”

The entire hall erupted into gasps again this time, not from shock, but from awe.

Cameras turned sharply toward James, who now stood slowly from his seat. Mrs. JP immediately walked over and wrapped her arm around her son with tears in her eyes.

“We love you, son,” she said tenderly. “You deserve every bit of this moment.”

James gave a small nod, his eyes scanning the room as all those who once looked down on him now looked up in silence.

From their seats, Helen and Mark were speechless.

Tracy clutched her phone, her hands trembling.

This wasn’t supposed to happen… this wasn’t in the plan… she thought.

James turned to face the Ray family directly. His eyes were calm, but piercing.

The grand ballroom had descended into an eerie quiet. All eyes were now fixed on James, the man who had once been mocked as a beggar, ridiculed as a street dweller, and dismissed as a disgrace to the Ray family. But there he stood tall, refined, and composed as the sole heir to the JP empire.

Reporters who once whispered slanderous headlines now stood frozen, their cameras lowered slightly, unsure whether to record this new twist or pause in awe. Among them, Tracy felt a chill run down her spine. Her earlier confidence had vanished like smoke, replaced by the crushing weight of guilt and dread. She couldn’t even meet James’s gaze.

Helen, seated a few rows ahead, was seething silently. Her fingers clenched the silk of her gown tightly, knuckles whitening. Mark sat beside her, pale-faced and stiff. All his previous arrogance had withered into regret. This wasn’t the plan. This wasn’t supposed to happen. James wasn’t supposed to rise. Not like this.

As the hall slowly began to clap, starting from the board members of JP Enterprises to representatives of international partners who respected Mr. JP’s authority, the applause grew louder. It became thunderous, roaring like justice finally given form. The heir had been revealed, and it wasn’t just a title it was a crown reclaimed.

Mr. JP gestured for silence once again, and when the room obeyed, he turned to James and said, “Son, I may have failed you in the past. I listened to lies, I acted in anger, and I walked away when I should’ve stood by your side. But today, in front of the world, I ask for your forgiveness and welcome you back not just as the President, but as the heart of JP Enterprises.”

The crowd erupted into another round of claps, cheers, and whistles. Emotions swirled through the hall like a whirlwind.

James slowly approached the podium, every step echoing the long journey he had endured. From rejection, betrayal, and homelessness to becoming the man everyone now admired.

He adjusted the microphone and let his calm voice wash over the crowd.

“I never imagined this day would come. Not because I didn’t believe in myself but because for a long time, the world refused to believe in me. Many of you here know me as the President. Some only know me through headlines good and bad. And a few… know me as the man they once threw away.”

His words cut through the crowd like glass.

He turned his gaze slowly toward the Ray family. “To those who called me worthless… to those who spat at my name, who mocked me when I had nothing… thank you.”

Gasps filled the room.

In a world where we often hear talk of financial bubbles, speculation, and individual enrichment through cryptocurrencies, Hope With Bitcoin resolutely takes the opposite approach. Here, Bitcoin is not an end in itself, but a means to reach out. A tool serving a simple, universal human cause: bringing smiles and hope back to those who need it most.

Far from big, empty promises and empty charitable projects, Hope With Bitcoin is committed to a philosophy of direct impact, total transparency, and lasting transformation of lives.

🟢 Why “Hope With Bitcoin”?

It all started with an observation: too many people are living in oblivion. In some regions, particularly in Africa, it doesn't take much to bring back a smile: a meal, a word, a gesture. But often, aid initiatives get lost in an administrative maze, corruption, or a lack of follow-ups. And in the world of Bitcoin, we see many promises of humanitarian aid without ever seeing results.

Hope With Bitcoin was launched to change that. The goal is clear:

Using the power of Bitcoin to provide direct, visible, measurable and lasting help.

We wanted to show that Bitcoin can nourish, heal, raise awareness, connect, and not just speculate.

---

🔵 What we do concretely

Hope With Bitcoin isn't an abstract concept. It's a set of concrete actions carried out on the ground, with rigor and heart.

Here's what we do:

🍛 Food distribution and health aid

Thanks to donations collected in Bitcoin, we provide concrete help to those who need it most.

We distribute hot meals and basic food items (rice, spaghetti, oil, charcoal, etc.) to struggling families, vulnerable children, and orphanages.

But our work doesn't stop there. A portion of the funds is also used to purchase essential medicines and contribute to the payment of healthcare, particularly for sick or injured people who cannot afford treatment.

Each action is carefully documented and made public to ensure complete transparency and strengthen the trust of our donors.

🟠 Our results to date

Since the creation of Hope With Bitcoin on January 8, 2025, we have succeeded in:

• Collect a total of 957,971 Satoshi thanks to the generosity of contributors around the world.
• Help 87 people directly through our distribution actions. (Proof of work)
• Raise awareness among several merchants about the use of Bitcoin.
• Create a close-knit, caring community focused on human impact.

These numbers aren't statistics. They're lives, faces, stories. Every person helped represents a victory, proof that Bitcoin solidarity is possible.

🟣 Our ambitions for the future

Hope With Bitcoin doesn't want to be just a one-time donation project. We believe in sustainability, independence, and structured growth.

### 🐖 Launch of a pig farm to sustainably finance our actions

To make our humanitarian work self-sufficient and sustainable, we have launched a project to create a pig farm, the proceeds of which will be used to fund food distribution, the purchase of medicines, and other solidarity initiatives led by Hope With Bitcoin.

This project aims to generate regular income while having a tangible local impact:

• 🥣 Continuously support food and health aid

• 👷‍♂️ Create jobs for young people and unemployed people

• ♻️ Reinvest profits in other humanitarian projects

To kick-start this project, we've established a detailed budget estimate that includes the purchase of piglets, pen construction, feed, veterinary care, and management fees. 👉 Estimated cost: approximately 5,525,200 Satoshi

More details on the budget here: https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqsfmrafup9dma3wvgeqgasydjhy06rhkn8d268txmztp60533mp3xg0vuk5a

🐓 Towards a united and evolving ecosystem

Ultimately, we aim to diversify our business into chicken and goat farming and develop micro-agricultural projects. The goal is to build a resilient, local, and 100% Bitcoin-funded ecosystem that serves the most vulnerable.

หลังจากที่เราคุยกันไปแล้วเกี่ยวกับ milk 2.0 ว่ามี Perfect Day ที่เป็นหัวหาดด้านเวย์ที่ไม่มีวัว แล้วเราก็มี Formo หัวหาดด้านชีสที่ไม่มีวัว ซึ่ง 2 เจ้านี้ต่างมีสิ่งที่แต่ละคนขาดอยู่ นั่นคือ เจ้านึงขาดเคย์ซีนเด็ดๆ อีกเจ้าไม่ได้มีเวย์ที่เจ๋งพอ และแน่นอนครับ ทุกปัญหาย่อมมีธุรกิจเกิดขึ้นมาเพื่อแก้ปัญหา

วันนี้เราจะมาพบกับอีกผู้เล่นนึง ที่แก้ปัญหาทั้งหมดด้วยการ สร้างสิ่งที่ขาดขึ้นมาใหม่ ตามคาแรคเตอร์ของ "มังกรจีน" ใช่ครับ เราเคยคิดว่าโลกเทคโนโลยีมีแต่ฝรั่งเป็นเจ้าสำนัก แต่ตอนนี้ทุกมุมโลกต่างแย่งชิงอนาคตกันหมด ไม่มีใคร slow life อีกต่อไปแล้ว

เพราะในโลกที่นมไม่ใช่นม ชีสไม่ใช่ชีส และวัวไม่จำเป็นต้องกินหญ้า เรากำลังเข้าสู่ยุคที่ “นม 2.0” กำลังถูกออกแบบใหม่… ด้วยจุลินทรีย์ บริษัทหนึ่งจากจีนชื่อว่า Changing Biotech กำลังจะทำให้มันกลายเป็นความจริง ด้วยเป้าหมายที่ไม่ธรรมดา เปลี่ยนโครงสร้างนมทั้งระบบ โดยไม่ต้องใช้วัวแม้แต่ตัวเดียวเช่นกันครับ

หลายคนอาจคุ้นชื่อ Perfect Day บริษัทอเมริกันที่เป็นรายแรก ๆ ในโลกที่สามารถผลิตเวย์โปรตีนจากเชื้อราแบบไม่ใช้สัตว์ ด้วยเทคโนโลยี precision fermentation ซึ่งตอนนี้มีแบรนด์ไอศกรีม เนย และโยเกิร์ตของตัวเองกระจายขายในห้างทั่วอเมริกา แต่ Changing Biotech กลับเลือกเดินอีกเส้นทาง เส้นทางที่อาจลึกกว่า แยบยลกว่า และอาจ “กลืน” ตลาดในเอเชียโดยที่ผู้บริโภคไม่รู้ตัว

แน่นอนว่าสิทธิบัตรการค้นคว้าต่างๆมีมูลค่าสูง เบื้องหลังเทคโนโลยีของ Changing Biotech ไม่ใช่แค่การเลียนแบบ แต่คือการ สร้างใหม่ตั้งแต่ระดับจุลินทรีย์ พวกเขาไม่ได้แค่ยืมเชื้อราสำเร็จรูปอย่าง Trichoderma มาใส่ยีนโปรตีน แต่ “เพาะสายพันธุ์จุลินทรีย์ขึ้นมาเอง” เพื่อควบคุมการผลิตโปรตีนอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ ทั้งเวย์และเคซีน ซึ่งเป็นสององค์ประกอบหลักของนมแท้ นี่คือสิ่งที่แม้แต่ Perfect Day เองก็ยังไม่ได้โฟกัสเต็มตัว เพราะยังผลิตแต่เวย์เพียงอย่างเดียว Perfect Day ใช้ Trichoderma reesei เชื้อราชนิดที่วงการอาหารใช้กันมานานในการหมักเวย์โปรตีน เชื้อราชนิดนี้ปลอดภัย และได้รับการอนุมัติให้ใช้ในอาหารในหลายประเทศ แต่ Changing Biotechกลับล้ำไปอีกขั้น พวกเขาไม่ได้ยืมของใครมาใช้ แต่ 'สร้างจุลินทรีย์แพลตฟอร์มของตัวเอง' (customized microbial chassis) และมี ความสามารถด้าน strain engineering แบบ in-house ซึ่งทำให้พวกเขาควบคุมประสิทธิภาพการผลิต และลดต้นทุนได้แบบลึกสุดใจไม่ต้องซื้อให้เปลืองครับ

การผลิตเคซีนได้ในระดับอุตสาหกรรมหมายถึงอะไร? มันหมายถึง ชีสที่ยืดได้จริง หลอมได้จริง และ “เนื้อสัมผัสแบบชีสแท้” ที่แบรนด์ plant-based ยังเลียนแบบไม่ได้ และนั่นคือกุญแจสำคัญที่ทำให้ Changing Biotech ถูกจับตามองในวงการ alt-dairy ว่าอาจเป็น “Formo เวอร์ชันจีน” ที่จะครองตลาดชีสทั้งเอเชีย Changing Biotech ตั้งเป้าผลิต ทั้งเวย์และเคซีน ซึ่งทำให้สามารถพัฒนาผลิตภัณฑ์ที่มี “เนื้อสัมผัสและการหลอมตัวแบบชีสแท้จริง” ได้ครบวงจรกว่า โดยเฉพาะพวก mozzarella และ cheddar ที่ต้องพึ่งเคซีนในการขึ้นรูป จุดนี้คือกุญแจสำคัญในการตีตลาด “ชีสพรีเมียม” ที่วัตถุดิบจากพืชทำไม่ได้

แต่ที่น่าจับตายิ่งกว่านั้นคือ ทุนและเครือข่ายในประเทศ ที่ Perfect Day ไม่มี แม้ฝั่งอเมริกาจะมีเงินลงทุนหลักเกิน 800 ล้านดอลลาร์ แต่ฐานการผลิตอยู่ในสหรัฐฯ ซึ่งทำให้มีต้นทุนสูงกว่า ส่วนในจีน Changing Biotech ได้รับแรงหนุนจากรัฐบาลจีนผ่านนโยบายสนับสนุน “เทคโนโลยีอาหารแห่งอนาคต” และมีแนวโน้มว่าจะได้สิทธิพิเศษด้าน supply chain และการผลิตระดับอุตสาหกรรมภายในประเทศจีน ซึ่งเป็น ตลาดที่ Perfect Day เจาะยาก รวมถึงได้รับแรงหนุนจากกองทุนอาหารแห่งอนาคตอย่าง Bits x Bites ที่ทำงานร่วมกับรัฐบาลจีนโดยตรงในแผน 5 ปีด้านเทคโนโลยีอาหาร เป้าหมายชัดเจน ลดการพึ่งพาโปรตีนจากสัตว์ และสร้างระบบนมแห่งชาติแบบไร้สัตว์

โมเดลของพวกเขาต่างกับ Perfect Day ที่เน้นการสร้างแบรนด์ (เช่น Brave Robot, Modern Kitchen) และขายตรงกับผู้บริโภค แต่ Changing Biotech ไม่ใช่การตั้งแบรนด์ขายแข่งกันในห้าง แต่เป็น “ผู้อยู่เบื้องหลัง” ของแบรนด์ใหญ่อื่น ๆ โดยซัพพลายโปรตีนให้แบบ OEM ให้กับผู้ผลิตอาหารในจีน ซึ่งทำให้สามารถฝังตัวเข้า supply chain ของอุตสาหกรรมนมจีนได้เงียบ ๆ แต่ทรงพลัง โมเดลนี้คล้ายกับ Givaudan หรือ DSM ที่เน้นการเป็นผู้อยู่เบื้องหลังผลิตภัณฑ์แบรนด์อื่น

จะเรียกว่า Perfect Day คือ Apple ของนมไร้สัตว์ก็ได้ แต่ Changing Biotech กำลังเป็น Huawei ของอุตสาหกรรมนม ที่สร้างเทคโนโลยีขึ้นเองทั้งระบบ ควบคุมเบ็ดเสร็จตั้งแต่เชื้อจุลินทรีย์ยันขั้นตอนผลิต แล้วส่งต่อให้แบรนด์อื่นใช้แบบครบวงจร

ในวันที่ผู้บริโภคในจีนตักไอศกรีม “จากครีมจุลินทรีย์” หรือกินชีส “ไม่มีสัตว์เจือปน” อาจไม่มีใครรู้เลยว่าเบื้องหลังของรสสัมผัสนั้น คือจุลินทรีย์จากโรงงานที่พัฒนาโดย Changing Biotech ทั้งสิ้น

คำถามคือ แล้วมันดีต่อสุขภาพแค่ไหน? มันดีกว่าการรีดนมจากวัวจริง ๆ หรือแค่ดีต่อ narrative ของคนเมืองที่อยาก feel good แค่นั้น?

แล้วถ้าทุกประเทศเดินตามเทรนด์นี้ ใครกันแน่จะเป็นเจ้าของ “สูตรโปรตีนแห่งอนาคต” ที่ครองอำนาจอาหารของทั้งโลก?

คำตอบอาจไม่ได้อยู่ในกล่องนม แต่ในห้องแล็บจุลินทรีย์ของบริษัทที่เราไม่เคยได้ยินชื่อ

ยิ่งเราคุยกันนานเท่าไร ยิ่งรู้สึกแล้วใช่ไหมครับว่า อาหารอนาคต ไม่ใช่อาหารที่จะเกิดขึ้นในอนาคต แต่เป็น อาหารที่เราจะถูกครอบงำในอนาคต ซึ่งเริ่มไปแล้ว . . . วันนี้

นึกภาพวันที่ทุกคนล้วนรังเกียจนมจากวัว แล้วยินดีโอบกอดรับนมจากจุลินทรีย์ ด้วยความยินดีปรีดา

Marty's Bent

It's been a pretty historic week for the United States as it pertains to geopolitical relations in the Middle East. President Trump and many members of his administration, including AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, traveled across the Middle East making deals with countries like Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Syria, and others. Many are speculating that Iran may be included in some behind the scenes deal as well. This trip to the Middle East makes sense considering the fact that China is also vying for favorable relationships with those countries. The Middle East is a power player in the world, and it seems pretty clear that Donald Trump is dead set on ensuring that they choose the United States over China as the world moves towards a more multi-polar reality.

Many are calling the events of this week the Riyadh Accords. There were many deals that were struck in relation to artificial intelligence, defense, energy and direct investments in the United States. A truly prolific power play and demonstration of deal-making ability of Donald Trump, if you ask me. Though I will admit some of the numbers that were thrown out by some of the countries were a bit egregious. We shall see how everything plays out in the coming years. It will be interesting to see how China reacts to this power move by the United States.

While all this was going on, there was something happening back in the United States that many people outside of fringe corners of FinTwit are not talking about, which is the fact that the 10-year and 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yields are back on the rise. Yesterday, they surpassed the levels of mid-April that caused a market panic and are hovering back around levels that have not been seen since right before Donald Trump's inauguration.

I imagine that there isn't as much of an uproar right now because I'm pretty confident the media freakouts we were experiencing in mid-April were driven by the fact that many large hedge funds found themselves off sides of large levered basis trades. I wouldn't be surprised if those funds have decreased their leverage in those trades and bond yields being back to mid-April levels is not affecting those funds as much as they were last month. But the point stands, the 10-year and 30-year yields are significantly elevated with the 30-year approaching 5%. Regardless of the deals that are currently being made in the Middle East, the Treasury has a big problem on its hands. It still has to roll over many trillions worth of debt over over the next few years and doing so at these rates is going to be massively detrimental to fiscal deficits over the next decade. The interest expense on the debt is set to explode in the coming years.

On that note, data from the first quarter of 2025 has been released by the government and despite all the posturing by the Trump administration around DOGE and how tariffs are going to be beneficial for the U.S. economy, deficits are continuing to explode while the interest expense on the debt has definitively surpassed our annual defense budget.

via Mohamed Al-Erian

To make matters worse, as things are deteriorating on the fiscal side of things, the U.S. consumer is getting crushed by credit. The 90-plus day delinquency rates for credit card and auto loans are screaming higher right now.

via TXMC

One has to wonder how long all this can continue without some sort of liquidity crunch. Even though equities markets have recovered from their post-Liberation Day month long bear market, I would not be surprised if what we're witnessing is a dead cat bounce that can only be continued if the money printers are turned back on. Something's got to give, both on the fiscal side and in the private markets where the Common Man is getting crushed because he's been forced to take on insane amounts of debt to stay afloat after years of elevated levels of inflation. Add on the fact that AI has reached a state of maturity that will enable companies to replace their current meat suit workers with an army of cheap, efficient and fast digital workers and it isn't hard to see that some sort of employment crisis could be on the horizon as well.

Now is not the time to get complacent. While I do believe that the deals that are currently being made in the Middle East are probably in the best interest of the United States as the world, again, moves toward a more multi-polar reality, we are facing problems that one cannot simply wish away. They will need to be confronted. And as we've seen throughout the 21st century, the problems are usually met head-on with a money printer.

I take no pleasure in saying this because it is a bit uncouth to be gleeful to benefit from the strife of others, but it is pretty clear to me that all signs are pointing to bitcoin benefiting massively from everything that is going on. The shift towards a more multi-polar world, the runaway debt situation here in the United States, the increasing deficits, the AI job replacements and the consumer credit crisis that is currently unfolding, All will need to be "solved" by turning on the money printers to levels they've never been pushed to before.

Weird times we're living in.

China's Manufacturing Dominance: Why It Matters for the U.S.

In my recent conversation with Lyn Alden, she highlighted how China has rapidly ascended the manufacturing value chain. As Lyn pointed out, China transformed from making "sneakers and plastic trinkets" to becoming the world's largest auto exporter in just four years. This dramatic shift represents more than economic success—it's a strategic power play. China now dominates solar panel production with greater market control than OPEC has over oil and maintains near-monopoly control of rare earth elements crucial for modern technology.

"China makes like 10 times more steel than the United States does... which is relevant in ship making. It's relevant in all sorts of stuff." - Lyn Alden

Perhaps most concerning, as Lyn emphasized, is China's financial leverage. They hold substantial U.S. assets that could be strategically sold to disrupt U.S. treasury market functioning. This combination of manufacturing dominance, resource control, and financial leverage gives China significant negotiating power in any trade disputes, making our attempts to reshoring manufacturing all the more challenging.

One of the main motivational factors for people to buy bitcoin is it’s ability to store value over time. During harvest we are doing the same thing. We have now harvested our garlic and 1/2 of our onions because if we don’t use the sun’s energy to cure the plants before winter they will start to rot. Let me explain why God has made the world this way; but, first let me explain why storing things isn’t evil.

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal; but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also”. Matt. 6:19-21

Is it wrong, then to have a retirement portfolio or even to care about the material things of this world for ourselves or for others? The answer is again both no and yes. The no comes from the fact that this passage is not the only one in the Bible speaking to questions of wealth and provision for those who are dependent on us. Other passages counsel prudence and forethought, such as, “Those who gather little by little will increase [wealth]” (Proverbs 13:11b), and, “The good leave an inheritance to their children’s children” (Proverbs 13:22).

God guides Joseph to store up food for seven years in advance of a famine (Genesis 41:25-36), and Jesus speaks favorably in the Parable of the Talents (Matt. 25:14-30). In light of the rest of Scripture, Matthew 6:19-21 cannot be a blanket prohibition. But the yes part of the answer is a warning, summed up beautifully in verse 21, “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” In other words, the possessions you own will change you so that you care more about the possessions than about other things.” So choose carefully what you own, for you will inevitably begin to value and protect it to the potential detriment of everything else.

How are we to discern the line between appropriate and inappropriate attention to wealth? Jesus answers, “Strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you” So if you believe your heart is following God’s direction go ahead and harvest your crops and / or buy some bitcoin. If you would have bought bitcoin one year ago, you would have 127% more purchasing power now. Let’s keep on fearing God and keeping his commandments.

Today I rode my bicycle to work and then I had to ride halfway back home to go to a picnic event, kind of a thing. And then I had a bike back to work to help unload stuff and then I had to bike home. So, I got some extra exercise in today and a bit unexpected, but that's good. This image was while I was taking a little walk, it looked like a tiny forest. https://usermedia.actifit.io/125670ce-4e00-493c-a0b4-4c42d542391f This report was published via Actifit app (https://bit.ly/actifit-app | https://bit.ly/actifit-ios).

Bitcoin is a system outside of the system—you don’t actually need fiat to obtain some sats. Bitcoin is a monetary network designed to operate independently of traditional financial systems.

As such, it’s possible to acquire Bitcoin without ever converting any fiat currency. 

Whether you’re aiming to earn, trade, or receive Bitcoin through alternative means, there are numerous ways to accumulate it organically—through work, community engagement, or creative effort.

In this guide, we'll explore six methods to get Bitcoin without spending fiat.

While some approaches require more time or technical knowledge, others are accessible to nearly anyone willing to accept Bitcoin for payment ⚡️

Read until the end of the article to know where to find people willing to give you Bitcoin in exchange for these ideas 🙂

Note: I have no affiliates or sponsorships and so any businesses I mention below are neither endorsements nor paid ads.

1. Offer Professional Services in Exchange for Bitcoin

The easiest and most direct way to receive Bitcoin without fiat is to trade your skills for sats.

This can be an option for those who are already earning an income freelancing, consulting, or providing any type of independent service simply by charging in Bitcoin rather than fiat.

For those with a traditional 9-5, you could mine sats within a Bitcoin company rather than a fiat business, or offer your skills as a side hustle for sats until you are ready to make a full switch (if you so choose).

Common examples include:

• Writing, editing, or translating

• Graphic design and illustration

• Programming and development

• Coaching, tutoring, or consulting

• Manual labor or local services

Rather than invoicing in your local currency, you can simply set your rate in Bitcoin—typically using a satoshi-based pricing model. I have a few free tools on my site that can help you with this.

2. Sell Goods—Physical or Digital—for Bitcoin

You don’t need to be a freelancer or to convince your boss to receive Bitcoin.

If you own physical items or create digital products, you can accept BTC as payment instead of fiat.

Even in a down-sizing situation, selling things around your home for Bitcoin is also an option.

Ideas include:

• Selling used items locally (e.g., via marketplaces or word of mouth)

• Creating and distributing digital products like eBooks, music, or design assets

• Selling handmade crafts or collectibles

• Selling the second-hand goods you no longer need for sats

Enthusiasts are often excited to support peer-to-peer BTC commerce.

You don’t need a complex setup either—a mobile wallet that supports on-chain or Lightning payments is enough to get started.

3. Engage with Nostr & Earn via Micro-Transactions

(I know you are reading on Nostr, but I originally published this on my blog for non-users, and talking about Nostr on Nostr is fun ;)

Nostr is a decentralized social protocol that allows users to interact, publish content, and receive sats.

It’s one of the most innovative new ways to earn BTC organically, without needing any fiat currency.

On Nostr, content creators, contributors, musicians, artists, and everyday people can receive “zaps” (tiny Bitcoin tips via the Lightning Network) from other users.

It’s essentially a value-for-value economy where people support each other directly with sats on top of likes and shares.

Getting started is simple:

• Set up a Lightning wallet (many are free and non-custodial - just look up what Bitcoiners recommend at the time you are reading this)

• Create a profile on a Nostr client (such as Damus, Amethyst, or Primal)

• Participate by posting, replying, and sharing thoughtful content

While the amounts may be small at first, consistent engagement can result in meaningful Bitcoin accumulation over time.

4. Request Bitcoin Tips in Your Daily Life

If you work in a role where tipping is common—such as driving for Uber, working in food service, hospitality, or delivery—you can offer Bitcoin as a tipping option.

How to implement this:

• Include a QR code to your Lightning wallet on your phone or a printed card

• Politely inform customers that you accept Bitcoin tips

• Use signage or include a message in your app profile

You may be surprised by how many tech-savvy or curious customers are willing to try it, especially in urban or Bitcoin-friendly communities.

5. Use Bitcoin Cashback & Rewards Programs

While not a direct trade for labor or goods, some platforms allow you to earn Bitcoin as a reward for purchases you were already planning to make.

In these cases, you are not buying Bitcoin with fiat, but instead receiving it as a form of cashback on your everyday fiat purchases.

Popular platforms include:

• In Canada, Shakepay offers free sats for shaking your phone daily or using their pre-paid Visa debit card

• Strike occasionally offers rewards in Bitcoin as well

This approach is best suited for those who already have a spending routine and want to passively earn BTC without changing their habits.

6. Try Bitcoin Mini–Mining

Mini miners like the Bitaxe, BitNerd, and similar open-source devices offer a unique way to mine Bitcoin at home without needing large-scale equipment or industrial-level power.

While traditional Bitcoin mining requires costly ASICs and massive electricity, mini miners are small, efficient, and hobbyist-friendly.

They’re capable of independently solving blocks—meaning there’s a tiny chance you could win the full block reward—or they can be used to join a solo mining pool and receive small payouts over time based on contribution.

Benefits of mini mining:

• Educational: Learn how mining works from the ground up

• Passive: Runs in the background with low power usage

• Potential upside: Very low probability of winning a full block, but it’s possible

Important caveats:

• These devices must be purchased with fiat or Bitcoin initially

• Most users will not earn consistent Bitcoin from them

• It may be more efficient to simply buy Bitcoin directly with that money ;)

While this idea is more geared towards experienced Bitcoiners wanting to expand their way of stacking sats, it's still a fun thing to consider.

Mini miners are a hands-on way to participate in the network while stacking sats or keeping open the small possibility of mining rewards.

Where to Find People Willing to Pay in Bitcoin

Now an important question—where are you going to find people willing to pay you in Bitcoin?

Finding people who are open to paying in Bitcoin is easier than it might seem—especially if you know where to look. 

Start by exploring local Bitcoin meetups, conferences, or community events in your area—these are often filled with enthusiasts who prefer peer-to-peer exchanges. Consider searching Facebook or Meetup.com for Bitcoin groups and events in your area.

Online, platforms like Nostr, Twitter/X, Reddit, and Bitcoin-focused Telegram groups can be great places to find clients or collaborators.

You can also look into Bitcoin job boards to find formal employment opportunities that pay in BTC.

The Bitcoin economy is growing, and so is the number of individuals and businesses willing to transact in BTC directly—bypassing fiat altogether.

Crypto Insights

Uncovering BIP30’s Consensus Vulnerability and Emerging Solutions

Bitcoin developer Ruben Somsen mentioned that while researching SwiftSync (a method to accelerate Bitcoin node synchronization; see next item for details), he discovered a theoretical consensus vulnerability in BIP. BIP30 was designed to prevent duplicate transaction IDs from creating inconsistencies in the UTXO set by invalidating blocks that contain outputs already present in the UTXO set. However, it makes exceptions for certain anomalous coinbase transactions from 2010 (the Coinbase TxIDs in blocks 91722 and 91812 are duplicates) which may cause node state inconsistencies or even forks under extreme block reorganizations. Although current checkpoint mechanisms prevent such reorganizations, removing checkpoints in the future might reintroduce the issue. Additionally, BIP30’s approach to checking the entire UTXO set is inefficient, hindering implementations of new technologies like SwiftSync, Utreexo, and zero-knowledge proofs.

SwiftSync Brings Nearly-Stateless, Fully Parallel Validation

The current Bitcoin Core validation requires these steps: sequentially traversing the blockchain while performing context-independent checks, adding outputs to the UTXO set, and removing spent outputs. Typically, the UTXO set cannot fit in memory, causing further slowdown due to disk I/O.

SwiftSync introduced by Ruben Somsen brings a near-stateless, fully parallelizable validation method that uses hints about which outputs remain unspent. This approach eliminates the need for database lookups during validation, drastically reducing memory usage to near zero and enabling full parallelization of validation steps. As a result, memory, disk I/O, and single-thread performanceCPU performance are removed. The new bottlenecks become CPU power and network bandwidth, meaning validation speed scales with better hardware and connectivity.

Ongoing Discussion on Removing the OP_RETURN Limit

• One-page summary covering 12 years of OP_RETURN history

Bitcoin Core contributor Ava Chow explained OP_RETURN’s 12-year history in a live stream. Key points are summarized in this overview by Claude 3.7.

• Antoine Poinsot: OP_RETURN limits are outdated and should be removed

Antoine Poinsot recommends removing OP_RETURN limits, arguing they neither effectively prevent abuse nor provide full visibility into all transactions for node operators, thus harming network efficiency.

• BitMEX somewhat supports lifting OP_RETURN limits

BitMEX argues that images or other non-financial data stored on Bitcoin shouldn’t be broadly categorized as spam. Only provocative or intentionally harmful content qualifies as spam, but storing images for profit or entertainment is not. The economic reality is that miners are incentivized to produce the most profitable blocks, and if users pay higher fees for transactions containing “junk” data, miners will include them. Blockchain is already heavily used for images, so OP_RETURN limits won’t change that.

• Bitcoin Core’s Aaron van Wirdum and Sjors Provoost also discussed removing OP_RETURN limits on their podcast Bitcoin Explained.

• Suggestions for improving Bitcoin policy change processes

Given recent “out of control” commentary on OP_RETURN, Bitcoin Core’s Matthew Zipkin suggests introducing a new procedural step for policy changes. The biggest problem was many users first hearing about this on Twitter rather than participating in initial mailing list discussions, making them feel disenfranchised and triggering uninformed, repetitive debates. Matthew Zipkin proposes adding an intermediate step between mailing list discussion and GitHub pull request to bridge the gap and improve community engagement and feedback quality while reducing misunderstandings.

Mining Centralization Is a Deeper Issue Than Spam Filtering — Stratum v1 Protocol Must Die

This article discusses fundamental problems with the Bitcoin mining protocol Stratum v1 and calls for a community-wide shift to the more secure, decentralized DATUM or Stratum v2.

The author argues that Stratum v1’s architecture leads to centralized mining where “miners” merely provide hash power, but block construction and transaction ordering are controlled by separate “node runners.” They run nodes to verify their payments but do not contribute CPU to securing chain integrity. They make up the absolute majority of today’s Bitcoin nodes, contradicting Satoshi’s envisioned decentralized lottery-like mining.

In the context of recent OP_RETURN debates, the author contends that protocol-level changes (like adopting DATUM or Stratum v2) are a more fundamental solution to centralization than any spam-filtering policy.

The Bitcoin community swimming in a centralized Stratum v1 mempool, blissfully unaware of the chemicals in the water.

Following.space: Creating and Customizing Follow Lists on Nostr

Following.space is a new Nostr tool addressing a major pain point of the protocol: finding people worth following in the absence of an algorithm. Now users can directly follow “Follow Packs” (curated follow lists) created by others or create, curate, and share their own custom follow lists.

Coinbase Launches x402: A New Open-Source Payment Protocol Built on HTTP Rails

Coinbase Developer Platform introduced the x402 open protocol, a payment protocol that enables instant stablecoin payments directly over HTTP. Built on the HTTP 402 “Payment Required” status code, it creates a native web payment layer allowing websites and applications to request immediate payments from users or AI clients-without requiring API keys, logins, or credit cards. This simplifies payments and improves efficiency. It supports multiple blockchains and stablecoins like USDC. The protocol is open-source on GitHub.

New Accountability Exploration in Consensus Protocols: Making Liveness Accountable

Security and liveness are classical security properties of consensus protocols. Recent research introduced “accountability” to strengthen security: if security is violated, it can prove that a sizable fraction of adversarial nodes misbehaved. However, accountability for liveness remains underexplored. This paper investigates to what extent liveness can also be made accountable.

加密洞见

BIP30 潜藏共识风险，社区酝酿替代路径

比特币开发者 Ruben Somsen 提到，在研究 SwiftSync（一种加速比特币节点同步的方法。详情见下一条）时发现，BIP30 存在一个理论上的共识漏洞。BIP30 旨在通过消除重复条目来处理异常，该机制用于防止重复的 UTXOs，但在处理 2010 年某些异常 coinbase 交易时存在特例（区块 91722 和 91812 的 Coinbase TxID 是重复的），可能在极端区块重组的情况下导致节点状态不一致，甚至引发分叉。虽然当前的检查点机制阻止了这种重组，未来若移除检查点，问题可能重新浮现。此外，BIP30 对整个 UTXO 集的检查效率低下，妨碍了 SwiftSync、Utreexo、ZKP 等新技术的实现。

因此 Ruben 建议考虑用更简洁的方式（如检查 coinbase 唯一性）替代 BIP30，以提升效率并减少未来协议演进的阻力。他并未主张立即修改，而是希望鼓励社区讨论。

SwiftSync 实现近于无状态的、可并行比特币区块链验证

当前 Bitcoin Core 中的常规验证需要以下步骤：按顺序遍历区块链——同时运行一些独立于上下文的微小检查、向 UTXO 集添加输出、检索被花费的输出并移除它们。通常 UTXO 集无法放进内存中，从而因为硬盘读写而进一步放慢速度。

由 Ruben Somsen 提出的 SwiftSync 完全改变了这种模式，而且不会改变安全假设——不需要再进行数据库检索，且内存使用量降低到近于零，所有验证都可以并行完成。由此，内存、硬盘读写和单线程性能，不会再作为瓶颈出现；剩余的瓶颈就只是 CPU 和带宽，只要这两项的条件越好，验证就越快。

关于取消 OP_RETURN 12 限制的讨论持续进行

• 一页摘要涵盖 OP_RETURN 12 年的历史

Bitcoin Core 成员 Ava Chow 通过直播解释了 OP_RETURN 12 年的历史。关键内容可以在这份由 Claude 3.7 总结的摘要中找到。

• Antoine Poinsot：OP_RETURN 限制已过时，建议取消

Antoine Poinsot 在本文中建议取消 OP_RETURN 的限制，因它们既无法有效防止滥用，反而让节点运营者无法看到所有交易、对网络活动没有全面的了解、也会损害网络效率。

• BitMEX：在一定程度上支持取消 OP_RETURN 的限制

BitMEX 认为，存储在比特币上的图像或其他非金融数据不应被一概视为垃圾信息。只有具有挑衅性或故意有害的内容才算是垃圾信息，而为了盈利或娱乐而存储图像则不属于垃圾信息。目前的经济现实是，矿工有动力生产最具盈利性的区块，如果用户支付更高的手续费来发送包含“垃圾”数据的交易，矿工就会打包这些交易。区块链已经被大量用于存储图像，因此 OP_RETURN 的限制并不会改变这一现状。

• Bitcoin Core 的 Aaron van Wirdum 和 Sjors Provoost 也在他们的播客节目 Bitcoin Explained 中，也讨论了关于移除 OP_RETURN 限制的问题

• 关于改进比特币提议形式和流程的建议

鉴于近期关于 OP_RETURN 的评论呈现「失控」状态，Bitcoin Core 的 Matthew Zipkin 认为应该考虑为政策更改添加新的流程步骤。这次 OP_RETURN 相关讨论的最大问题是，许多用户第一次是在 twitter 上听到消息，而并未参与 Bitcoin Core 邮件列表的初始讨论，因此他们觉得做任何事情都为时已晚，感到权利已被剥夺。结果引发了一大群考虑不周、不知情、重复的讨论/批评。Matthew Zipkin 因此建议引入一个处于邮件列表和 GitHub PR 之间的中间步骤，以弥合邮件列表讨论和拉取请求审查之间的差距，旨在提高社区参与度和反馈质量、减少误会。

集中挖矿的问题比垃圾信息过滤策略更深，Stratum v1 协议必须消亡

本文讨论了比特币挖矿协议 Stratum v1 的根本问题，並呼吁社群全面转向更安全、去中心化的 DATUM 或 Stratum v2 协议。作者认为 Stratum v1 的架构导致了集中挖矿，「矿工」名存实亡：他们只负责提供算力，而区块的构建和交易排序则由另外的「节点运营者」（node runner）掌握。这些用户维护节点来验证自己的支付，并没有贡献 CPU 来保持链的诚实。而他们是今天比特币节点的绝对大多数。这跟中本聪原本设想的去中心化「彩票式」挖矿模式背道而驰。

联系到最近关于 OPP_RETURN 的讨论，作者认为 DATUM 才是更为根本的解决方案，而不是任何特定策略。

比特币社区在一个中心化的 Stratum v1 内存池中幸福畅游，全然不知水中的化学物质。

Following.space：在 Nostr 上实现关注列表的创建和自定义

Following.space 是新推出的 Nostr 工具，它解决了该协议的最大痛点之一：在没有算法的情况下找到并跟踪感兴趣的用户。现在用户可以直接 follow 别人创建的关注列表（Follow Packs），或自行创建、制作、共享自定义的关注列表。

Coinbase 开发者平台推出 x402 开源协议，它是一种支付协议，可以直接通过 HTTP 进行即时稳定币支付。它基于 HTTP 402 的「Payment Required」状态码打造原生的互联网支付层，允许服务端向用户或 AI 客户端请求即时付款，无需 API 密钥、登录或信用卡，实现更简单高效的支付体验。它支持多条区块链和 USDC 等稳定币，具备开放性和链无关性，协议已在 GitHub上开源。

共识协议中的可追责性新探：让活性也能被追责

安全性和活性（liveliness）被认为是共识协议中的两项核心性质。近年来已经有研究引入了「可追责性」（accountability）来增强安全性：一旦安全性遭到破坏，可以证明有一定比例的对手节点违反了协议。然而相较之下，活性的可追责性却尚未被充分研究。本文探讨了在多大程度上可以为活性实现类似的可追责保证。 查看论文全文。
