執行摘要

市場持續上探新高，總市值達3.26兆美 元，ETF資金穩定流入，鏈上鯨魚持續吸籌，讓 人忍不住想問，是不是該追？然而，數據提醒 我們需保持冷靜。 我們這週需觀察： • 衍生品爆倉與槓桿是否過熱，清算風險升溫， 短線資金可能因波動而退場。 • 觀察鏈上數據是否延續偏多結構。交易所比 特幣儲備持續下滑、大型地址增加，若鯨魚 活躍度持續上升，將有利於中期支撐力道。 同時觀察穩定幣市值變化，以判斷資金 是否持續布局。整體而言，市場結構偏多，但 上行須有資金支持，操作上宜保留彈性，避免 追高。

小結

本週加密市場總市值持續上升，而成交量顯 著提高，顯示市場活躍度增加，資金流入動能仍在延 續。恐懼與貪婪指數仍處於貪婪區間，市場情緒樂觀， 但投資者開始謹慎調整。相對強弱指標顯示市場尚未 進入弱勢，但需關注短期修正壓力。山寨幣季節指數 低迷，資金仍集中於主流幣種，而穩定幣市值增長， 可能顯示市場內部資金配置仍較為謹慎。

衍生性商品

市場槓桿交易持續增長，本週永續合約市場 的持倉規模達159.68B，顯示投資者對槓桿交易的需 求仍然強勁。

資金費率方面，市場維持正費率，主要交易 所的資金費率保持在0.01%左右，表明市場仍偏多。

https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/FundingRate

爆倉數據顯示，空單爆倉金額達826.391M， 而多單爆倉金額達1148.547M，近期市場波動導致大 量強制平倉，尤其是多頭受壓較為明顯。

https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/LiquidationData

清算熱力圖顯示，$105,000 附近的清算金額 達166.41M，這一價格區間成為市場交易的重要關注 點，投資者需留意可能的風險變化。

https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/futures/LiquidationHeatMap

期權市場交易活躍，投資者在不同價格區間 展開佈局： • $100,000行權價的看跌期權合約數量為6.93K，總 金額達$18.34M，顯示市場對該區間的下行風險仍 保持一定的防禦。 • $110,000行權價的看漲期權合約數量為13.32K，總 金額達$76.11M，顯示市場對上行的預期依然較為 強烈。

https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/options/OIStrike

此外，最大痛點分別出現在2025/05/30 的 $98,000（名義金額9.7B）以及2025/06/27 的 $95,000（名義金額11.14B），顯示市場對不同價位的 佈局仍然存在分歧，但相較於上週有所收斂。

https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/options/max-pain

小結

本週加密市場仍處於高度波動的環境，槓桿 交易與清算熱點區域成為市場關注的焦點。多頭與空 頭的資金配置存在競爭，爆倉規模顯示槓桿風險仍然 不可忽視。期權市場則呈現不同價格區間的佈局策略， 投資者對短期與中期的市場走勢保持不同看法。建議 投資者密切關注市場資金流向與槓桿風險，調整交易 策略，以降低市場波動帶來的潛在影響。

ETF

本週，加密貨幣衍生性商品市場保持活躍， 其中比特幣（BTC）與以太坊（ETH）ETF的資金流入 顯示投資人對市場的信心仍然穩定。比特幣ETF本週 流入2.602億美元。

而以太坊ETF則流入2,220萬美元，儘管流入 規模較上週略有下降，但仍顯示機構與散戶投資人對 市場的參與度不減。

https://coinmarketcap.com/zh-tw/etf/

小結

整體而言，本週加密貨幣衍生性商品市場保 持資金流入趨勢，雖然比特幣ETF流入金額略低於前 週，但以太坊ETF呈現穩定增長。市場投資情緒仍然 良好，未來需持續關注技術發展與宏觀經濟環境對 ETF與衍生性商品市場的影響，以掌握市場動能變化。

鏈上分析 | BTC

二級交易所的比特幣儲備量再次創下新低， 顯示市場上的比特幣供給持續減少，潛在拋壓進一步 降低。這一現象通常反映出投資者傾向於將資產移至 自有錢包，展現長期持有的傾向。

https://cryptoquant.com/asset/btc/chart/exchange-flows/exchange-reserve?exchange=all_exchange&window=DAY&sma=0&ema=0&priceScale=log&metricScale=linear&chartStyle=line

即使比特幣價格已創下歷史新高，地址分佈 方面仍延續與上週相同的趨勢。

https://cryptoquant.com/community/dashboard/67e2481ba2a7203afd437b31

鯨魚活躍地址仍延續上週，無論是新鯨魚或 老鯨魚，近期均明顯提升鏈上活動頻率，顯示其對市 場後市表現持續看好。整體而言，資金與籌碼正在流 向鯨魚，為比特幣後續表現提供強勁支撐。

https://cryptoquant.com/community/dashboard/67e2481ba2a7203afd437b31

然而值得關注的是，即便比特幣價格已創下 歷史新高，NUPL 指標卻未能超越前兩次牛市的高點。 這代表市場雖然整體仍處於盈利狀態，但尚未進入過 度亢奮或泡沫化階段，投資人情緒相對理性。這樣的 結構可能為後續漲勢留下空間。

https://cryptoquant.com/asset/btc/chart/network-indicator/net-unrealized-profit-loss-nupl?window=DAY&priceScale=log&metricScale=linear&chartStyle=line&sma=0&ema=0

目前觀察CoinbasePremium Index 與 Korea Premium Index 皆位於0 以上，顯示美國與韓 國市場的現貨買盤相對活躍，市場需求強勁。這也反 映出在全球主要市場中，投資者對比特幣仍具有高度 興趣與買入力道，尤其是來自機構或散戶資金較多的 交易平台表現出溢價狀態，通常代表有資金持續流入 並推升現貨價格，對中短期價格走勢構成支撐。未來 若兩大溢價指數持續維持正值，將有助於延續市場的 多頭氣氛。

CoinbasePremium Index:https://cryptoquant.com/asset/btc/chart/market-data/coinbase-premium-index?window=DAY&sma=0&ema=0&priceScale=log&metricScale=linear&chartStyle=line

Korea Premium Index:https://cryptoquant.com/asset/btc/chart/market-data/korea-premium-index?window=DAY&sma=0&ema=0&priceScale=log&metricScale=linear&chartStyle=line

小結

即便比特幣價格已創下歷史新高，鏈上數據 顯示市場仍存在結構性變化與短期潛在風險。從地址 分布來看，10–100 顆持倉的中小戶數量持續創下新低， 而100–1k、1k–10k 乃至於 10k 以上的地址數量則穩定 上升，顯示資金持續集中於大戶與機構手中。與此同 時，鯨魚活躍地址全面上升，顯示大資金正在積極參 與市場。 值得注意的是，雖然價格已突破新高， NUPL 指標雖來到相對高點，卻尚未超越過去兩次牛 市的峰值，代表市場情緒尚未達到極度貪婪或全面樂 觀的階段，潛在上行空間仍待觀察。 此外，CoinbasePremium Index 與 Korea Premium Index 雙雙維持在正值，代表現貨買盤動能 仍強，有助於支撐價格表現。整體而言，鏈上結構健 康，但需密切關注中小持倉賣壓與市場情緒是否過熱， 避免短線波動風險。

總體經濟

本週總體經濟數據顯示，聯邦基金有效利率 仍維持在4.33%，反映市場依然處於高利率環境。

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FEDFUNDS

隨著6 月18 日即將召開的聯邦公開市場委 員會(FOMC) 會議，市場對利率決策的預期更加集中， 其中4.25%-4.50% 區間的機率已從91.7% 上升至 94.4%，而4.00%-4.25% 的預測則下降至5.6%，顯示 市場對維持較高利率的預期仍在強化，這可能會抑制 風險資產的表現，包括加密貨幣。

https://www.cmegroup.com/cn-t/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html

消費者物價指數(CPI) 為2.33%，和上週一 致，失業率保持在4.2%，顯示勞動市場仍然穩定，企 業對人力需求的支撐作用持續發揮。當前情勢意味著 聯準會在利率決策上將維持謹慎，避免過度調整對經 濟產生負面影響。

失業率:https://www.macromicro.me/series/37/unemployment-rate

小結

加密貨幣市場仍受總體經濟環境影響，高利 率政策使得資金流動性受限，價格波動性加大。投資 者應密切關注即將召開的FOMC 會議及後續政策動向， 以評估市場短期內的走勢與投資機會。

ไม่ต้องคาดหวังวิชาการมากๆในวันอาทิตย์ก็ได้นะครับ วันนี้เรามาคุยเรื่องแดดในอีกแบบกันบ้าง เพราะเห็นว่าช่วงนี้ฝนตกบ่อยจนบางทีก็มีแดดมาให้ตากแค่แว๊บเดียวจริงๆ แต่มันเป็นแว๊บที่ทำให้นึกอะไรขึ้นมาได้ครับ

เฮียชอบมองฟ้าเวลาฝนหยุดตกใหม่ๆ ฟ้ายังไม่ใสสนิท แต่มีแสงอ่อนๆ ทะลุเมฆบางๆ แดดแบบนี้แหละที่มักจะพา “รุ้งกินน้ำ” มาวิ่งเล่นกลางท้องฟ้า

สมัยก่อนเคยสงสัยว่า แค่แสงผ่านหยดน้ำในอากาศ ทำไมถึงแยกสีได้เจ็ดเฉดแบบนั้น จนวันหนึ่งเฮียได้รู้ว่า หยดน้ำเล็กๆ เหล่านั้น ไม่ใช่แค่ “ใส” แต่ทำหน้าที่เหมือน “เลนส์” อย่างดีของธรรมชาติ เป็นเลนส์ที่รวมแสง กระจายแสง หักเหแสง แล้วเปลี่ยนพลังธรรมดาให้กลายเป็นภาพมหัศจรรย์บนฟ้า

และนั่นแหละที่ทำให้เฮียเริ่มสงสัยต่อว่า...มันจะเป็นไปได้ไหม ที่หยดน้ำจะสร้าง “ไฟ” จากแสงแดดได้จริงๆ? คำตอบคือ ได้จ้ะ 55555

ในฟิสิกส์ เราเรียกปรากฏการณ์นี้ว่า focusing of light หรือการรวมแสง ซึ่งสามารถเกิดขึ้นได้จริงแม้ผ่านเลนส์ธรรมชาติอย่างหยดน้ำ หรือแม้แต่ไอน้ำบางๆ ที่ล่องลอยอยู่ในอากาศ พลังงานแสงที่รวมผ่านเลนส์แบบนี้ อาจมีความร้อนพอจุดไฟติดได้เลยทีเดียว เช่น ไฟไหม้ที่เริ่มจากแว่นขยาย หรือจากกระจกเว้าสะท้อนแดด ก็ล้วนใช้หลักเดียวกัน

สมัยก่อนก็มีตำนานว่าอาร์คีมีดีส นักคณิตแห่งกรีก เคยใช้กระจกสะท้อนแดดเผาเรือข้าศึก โชว์พลังแสงจากฟ้าจนกลายเป็นเรื่องเล่าในตำนาน แม้จะถกเถียงกันว่าเวอร์ไปหรือเปล่า แต่หลักการมันจริงจังนะครับ

เพราะในโลกของความเป็นจริงพลังงานเกือบทั้งหมดที่โลกใช้ได้ในวันนี้...มาจากแดด

-ลมที่พัดเกิดจากอุณหภูมิบนพื้นดินที่แดดอุ่นไม่เท่ากัน -ฝนที่ตกก็เพราะแดดระเหยน้ำขึ้นไปเป็นไอ -พืชเติบโตได้เพราะแดดกระตุ้นให้เกิดกระบวนการสังเคราะห์แสง -แม้แต่ไฟฟ้าที่มนุษย์ใช้ ก็เริ่มต้นจากโฟตอนเล็กๆ ที่ปล่อยตัวเองออกมาจากดวงอาทิตย์

โลกของเรา คือเครื่องจักรแปรแสงเป็นชีวิต หยดน้ำ เป็นเพียงหนึ่งในฟันเฟืองใสๆ ที่เปลี่ยนแสงนั้นให้เกิดรูปร่าง เกิดพลัง เกิดไฟ และสุดท้ายกลายเป็น "ความรุ่งเรืองของชีวิต"

ย้อนกลับไปในประวัติศาสตร์ มนุษย์รู้เรื่องนี้มาก่อนเราจะมีไฟฟ้าเสียอีก อียิปต์โบราณบูชาเทพ “รา” เทพแห่งดวงอาทิตย์ ชาวอินคาและมายา วัดจังหวะชีวิตจากการเคลื่อนของแดด ในจีนยุคโบราณ เชื่อว่าไฟฟ้าบนฟ้า ไอน้ำบนดิน ต้องสมดุล ไม่งั้นจะเกิดโรคระบาด ทั้งหมดบอกเราว่า แดดไม่ใช่แค่แสง แต่เป็นครูของชีวิต

แต่ที่เฮียชอบที่สุดคือ แม้จะเป็นเพียงหยดน้ำหนึ่งหยด ถ้าอยู่ในที่ที่เหมาะ เจอกับแสงที่ใช่ มันสามารถจุด “ไฟ” ขึ้นมาได้จริงๆ

เฮียว่านี่แหละคือสัญลักษณ์ของมนุษย์ เราก็เหมือนหยดเล็กๆ ใสๆ ธรรมดาแต่ถ้าได้พบแดดของตัวเอง ไม่ว่าแดดนั้นจะเป็นแรงบันดาลใจ ความรัก งานที่ทำ หรือความฝันในใจ และถ้าเรายอมเป็น “เลนส์” ให้พลังนั้นลอดผ่าน ไฟบางอย่างก็จะลุกขึ้นในตัวเราและทำให้โลกรอบข้างอุ่นขึ้นด้วย

เฮียเลยอยากชวนให้ลองหันหน้าเข้าหาแดด ไม่ต้องถึงขั้นจ้องตากับพระอาทิตย์ แค่ยอมให้แสงนั้นผ่านใจเรา เพราะแม้แดดจะเหมือนเดิมทุกวัน แต่ใจเราต่างหากที่เปลี่ยนไปในทุกครั้งและบางที แค่แสงหนึ่งหยด ก็อาจเป็นไฟสำหรับทั้งชีวิต

โลกเป็นอย่างไร เพราะใจเราเป็นอย่างนั้น

พระอาจารย์ไพศาล วิสาโล วัดป่าสุคะโต แสดงธรรม เย็นวันที่ ๓๑ กรกฎาคม ๒๕๖๕

คนเราทุกคนมีตา หู จมูก ลิ้น กาย แล้วก็ใจ ตา หู จมูก ลิ้น กาย มีไว้เพื่อรับรู้โลกภายนอก ตารับรู้รูป หูรับรู้เสียง จมูกรับรู้กลิ่น ลิ้นรับรู้รส และกายก็รับรู้สัมผัสที่เรียกว่าโผฏฐัพพะ และไม่ว่าจะรับรู้โลกภายนอกอะไร มันก็ส่งมาที่ใจ ใจทำหน้าที่คิด ทำหน้าที่รู้สึก

เราก็คงจะสังเกตได้ว่า เรารับรู้อะไร ใจก็มักจะเป็นอย่างนั้น เช่น ถ้าเกิดเราเห็นภาพคนกำลังอดอยากหิวโหย ก็เกิดความรู้สึกเศร้า สงสารในใจของเรา ถ้าเห็นภาพอุบัติเหตุรถยนต์ ก็เกิดความเสียวสยอง หรือว่าหวาดวิตกในใจ ถ้าเห็นเด็กกำลังร้องไห้ ก็เกิดความรู้สึกเศร้าในใจของเรา แต่ถ้าเกิดเห็นภาพคนกำลังสนุกสนานรื่นเริง มันก็มีความยินดีเกิดขึ้นในใจ

รับรู้อะไรก็มีผลต่อใจของเรา รับรู้สิ่งที่เป็นลบ ใจก็พลอยรู้สึกลบไปด้วย รับรู้สิ่งที่เป็นบวก ใจก็พลอยเป็นบวกไปด้วย เพราะฉะนั้นการรับรู้อะไร ก็เป็นสิ่งที่เราต้องใส่ใจ

ถ้าเราอยากจะให้ใจเราสงบ ใจเราเป็นสุข ไม่ถูกแผดเผาด้วยความโกรธ หรือว่าไม่ถูกกดกดดันด้วยความเศร้า หรือว่าถูกกระตุ้นเร้าด้วยความโลภ ความอยาก อันนี้ก็โยงไปถึงว่า เราเลือกที่จะอยู่ไหนด้วย ถ้าเราเลือกที่จะอยู่ในที่ที่สงบสงัด ใจก็พลอยสงบ หรือว่าสามารถจะเย็นได้ง่าย

เพราะฉะนั้นธรรมะข้อหนึ่งในโอวาทปาฏิโมกข์คือ พึงนอนและนั่งในที่สงัด ในที่ที่สงัดที่ที่เป็นรมณีย์ มันก็มีส่วนน้อมใจให้สงบไปด้วย

รวมทั้งการรู้จักใช้หู ใช้ตา ใช้จมูกให้เป็น ต้องรู้จักเลือกรับรู้สิ่งที่มันจะเกื้อกูล ต่อการสร้างกุศลธรรมขึ้นมาในใจ อย่างไรก็ตามเท่านั้นยังไม่พอ เพราะว่าการรับรู้ของเรา บ่อยครั้งเราไม่ได้รับรู้สิ่งที่เกิดขึ้นข้างหน้าเราอย่างที่มันเป็นจริง

บ่อยครั้งเราก็มีการตีความหรือปรุงแต่ง เราไม่ได้เห็นอย่างที่รูปปรากฏ เราไม่ได้ได้ยินอย่างที่เสียงมากระทบหูเรา เพราะว่ามีการตีความ หรือปรุงแต่งซ้อน แบบเรียกว่าสนิทแนบแน่นเลย อย่างเช่น เห็นคนกระซิบกระซาบต่อหน้าเรา เราก็อาจจะตีความไปว่า เขากำลังพูดถึงเรา หรืออาจจะถึงขั้นนินทาเรา แต่ความจริงอาจจะไม่ได้เป็นอย่างนั้น

หรือว่ามีคนบางคนมองหน้าเรา จ้องเรา เราก็อาจจะตีความว่า เขากำลังหาเรื่องเราก็ได้ หรือเขากำลังไม่พอใจเรา แต่ว่าความจริงอาจจะไม่ได้เป็นอย่างนั้นก็ได้ แต่ว่าเราตีความไปแล้ว แล้วส่วนใหญ่เราก็จะไม่ได้เห็น ไม่ได้รับรู้สด ๆ หรือว่าอย่างที่มันเป็น

แต่ว่ามันมีการตีความ ตีความในทางบวกก็มี ตีความในทางลบก็มี ซึ่งตรงนี้บ่อยครั้งก็สร้างปัญหา หรือสร้างความทุกข์ให้กับเรา เพราะการที่เราไม่ได้เห็นอะไรอย่างที่มันเป็นจริงๆ มันมีการตีความในใจของเราหรือด้วยใจของเรา และเราก็เผลอไปคิดว่า สิ่งที่จิตตีความ มันคือความจริง แต่บ่อยครั้งมันก็เป็นแค่การปรุงแต่ง หรือความคิดของเราเอง

มีพระทิเบตท่านหนึ่งเล่าว่า มีคราวหนึ่งจะเดินทางขึ้นเครื่องบิน ที่สนามบินมีการตรวจเอกซเรย์ข้าวของ โทรศัพท์ คอมพิวเตอร์ ระหว่างที่กำลังรอข้าวของของท่านที่กำลังผ่านการเอกซเรย์ ท่านก็เหลือบไปมองเห็นด่านรักษาความปลอดภัยอีกด่านหนึ่ง ที่เป็นด่านสุดท้าย

แล้วก็สังเกตว่ามีเจ้าหน้าที่รักษาความปลอดภัยคนหนึ่ง รูปร่างสูงใหญ่ มีหนวดเฟิ้มเลย จ้องมองมาที่ท่าน จ้องแบบเขม็งเลย ท่านเหลียวไปมองหลายครั้งก็เห็นว่าเขายังจ้องไม่เลิก ก็รู้สึกไม่ค่อยสู้ดีแล้ว เอ๊ะ หรือว่าเจ้าหน้าที่คนนี้กำลังสงสัยอะไรเราหรือเปล่า ถึงจ้องมองแบบนั้น แล้วยิ่งเห็นเจ้าหน้าที่คนนั้นจ้องมองมากเท่าไหร่ โดยที่ไม่มีรอยยิ้มเลยนะ ท่านก็เลยนึกในใจว่า เขาคงจะสงสัยเรา

ยิ่งมองเจ้าหน้าที่คนนั้น ก็ยิ่งรู้สึกว่าเจ้าหน้าที่คนนี้ หน้าเหี้ยม แล้วก็ดูหยาบกระด้าง หน้าตารูปร่างเหมือนมาเฟียเลย จู่ ๆ เจ้าหน้าที่คนนั้นก็วิทยุ พระทิเบตก็คิดสงสัยว่าคงต้องมีอะไรแน่ แล้วก็จริงด้วย มีเจ้าหน้าที่คนใหม่เดินมาที่ชายคนนี้ แล้วก็พูดคุยอะไรกันสักอย่าง แล้วเจ้าหน้าที่ที่มีหนวดก็ชี้มาที่ตัวท่าน

พระทิเบตใจเขาก็ไม่สู้ดีแล้ว เจ้าหน้าที่คนใหม่ก็มา พอมายืนแทนเจ้าหน้าที่คนแรกที่มีหนวด เจ้าหน้าที่ที่มีหนวดนั่นก็เดินตรงมาเลยที่ท่าน แล้วก็ถามว่า คุณคือมิสเตอร์ยงเกใช่ไหม ท่านก็ตอบว่าใช่ มีอะไรเหรอ เจ้าหน้าที่คนนั้นก็บอกว่า ผมอยากจะขอบคุณคุณเหลือเกินนะ เพราะว่าหนังสือคุณนี่ช่วยผมได้มากเลย อยากจะขอบคุณจริง ๆ เลย

เท่านี้แหละ พระทิเบตก็ยิ้มเลย แล้วเจ้าหน้าที่คนนั้นก็ยิ้มด้วย แล้วก็มาเขย่ามือกัน เป็นมิตรเลยนะ ก็รู้สึกโล่งอกขึ้นมาเลย นึกว่าจะมีเรื่องอะไร อ๋อ ที่แท้มาขอบคุณที่ได้อ่านหนังสือของเรา ทีแรกนึกว่าจะมาสงสัย มาค้นตัวอะไรสักอย่าง

แล้วท่านก็พบว่าภาพของชายคนนั้น ในสายตาของท่านเปลี่ยนไปเลย จากคนที่มีสีหน้าเหี้ยม กระด้างเหมือนมาเฟีย กลายเป็นคนที่อารมณ์ดี ใจดี สุภาพเรียบร้อย มีความเป็นมิตร และท่านก็มาเอะใจ ทำไมเรามองเจ้าหน้าที่คนนี้เปลี่ยนไป ทีแรกเห็นเป็นคนเหี้ยม คนหยาบ แต่เห็นตอนนี้กลายเป็นมิตร มีน้ำใจ แล้วก็มีความสุภาพ ก็คนคนเดียวกันแหละ แต่ทำไมเห็นต่างกันเลย แบบตรงข้ามกันเลย หลังจากที่เขามาทักทาย แล้วก็มาขอบคุณ

อันนี้ก็ชี้ให้เห็นว่าจิตของคนเรา มันส่งผลมากต่อการรับรู้ ทีแรกพอเห็นเจ้าหน้าที่คนนั้นจ้องมองเขม็งเลย ที่จริงเขาก็ไม่ได้มีอะไรในใจ แต่ว่าพระทิเบตท่านนี้ตีความไปแล้วว่า เขาคงไม่ชอบเราหรือคิดไม่ดีกับเรา ตีความไปในทางร้ายแล้ว ไม่ได้เห็นอย่างที่เป็น

พอตีความไปในทางร้ายเขาคิดไม่ดีกับเรา ท่านก็เลยรู้สึกไม่ดีกับเขา พอรู้สึกไม่ดีกับเขา ภาพของเขาที่เห็นในใจของท่าน ก็กลายเป็นคนที่ดูเหี้ยม กระด้าง เหมือนมาเฟีย เหมือนอันธพาล แต่ว่าพอเขามีอากัปกริยาในทางที่เป็นมิตร มาขอบคุณ มาขอบอกขอบใจ ความรู้สึกของท่านที่มีต่อเขาก็เปลี่ยนไป แทนที่จะเห็นว่าเขาคิดไม่ดีกับเรา ที่แท้เขาขอบคุณเรา พอรู้สึกดีกับเขา ภาพของเขาในสายตาของท่านก็เปลี่ยนไปเลย กลายเป็นคนที่สุภาพเรียบร้อย มีความเป็นมิตร

อันนี้เป็นสิ่งที่ชี้ให้เห็นเลยว่า คนเราบ่อยครั้งเรารับรู้อะไรก็ตาม เราไม่ได้รับรู้อย่างที่มันเป็น แต่ว่ามีการตีความ และถ้าเราตีความในทางลบ ว่าเขาคิดไม่ดีกับเรา จิตมันก็มีปฏิกิริยาตอบโต้ทันทีเลย พอคิดว่าเจ้าหน้าที่คนนี้เขาคิดไม่ดีกับเรา ท่านก็รู้สึกไม่ดีกับเขาโดยอัตโนมัติเลย

พอรู้สึกไม่ดีกับเขา ภาพของเขาที่ท่านเห็นก็กลายเป็นภาพของคนที่ดูดุร้าย ดูเหี้ยม มีการเติมแต่ง มีการใส่สี และนี่คือสิ่งที่เกิดขึ้นกับคนเรา เกิดขึ้นกับเราในชีวิตประจำวัน เรารับรู้อะไร เราก็ไม่เคยรับรู้อย่างที่มันเป็น แต่ว่ามีการตีความ

ถ้าตีความในทางบวกก็ดีไป ถ้าตีความในทางลบ ก็เกิดความวิตก เกิดความกลัว เกิดความเครียด เกิดความขุ่นมัว และพอใจมีความวิตก มีความขุ่นมัว มองอะไรออกไป ก็เห็นแต่ภาพในทางลบ คนๆหนึ่งก็ถูกมองว่ากลายเป็นคนที่เหี้ยม กลายเป็นคนที่กระด้าง แต่พอใจเปลี่ยนไป ความรู้สึกที่มีต่อคนคนนั้นเปลี่ยนไป ภาพที่เห็นหรือว่าภาพที่มองออกไป มันก็เป็นอีกแบบหนึ่ง ตรงข้ามกันเลย

พูดอีกอย่างหนึ่งก็คือว่า ไม่ใช่แค่ว่าเราเห็นอะไรใจก็เป็นอย่างนั้น ในทางกลับกัน ใจเราเป็นอย่างไรก็เห็นโลกไปในทางนั้น ถ้าใจเราขุ่นมัว ใจเรามีความเครียด หรือมีความรู้สึกเป็นลบ โลกที่อยู่รอบตัวเรา หรือคนที่อยู่ข้างหน้าเรา ก็ถูกเติมแต่งให้เป็นลบไปด้วย มีการใส่สี แต่ถ้าเรารู้สึกบวกกับเขา ภาพที่เห็นก็เปลี่ยนไป กลายเป็นบวกไปด้วย อันนี้คือสิ่งที่เกิดขึ้นกับเราตลอดเวลาเลยว่าก็ว่าได้

โลกเป็นอย่างไร มันก็อยู่ที่ใจของเราว่าเป็นอย่างไรด้วย ฉะนั้นบ่อยครั้ง เวลาเรารู้สึกว่าโลกมันหม่นหมอง ผู้คนไม่น่ารัก มันอาจจะเป็นเพราะว่าใจเราหม่นหมอง หรือว่าใจเรามีความรู้สึกที่เป็นลบก็ได้

ฉะนั้นก่อนที่เราจะไปตัดสิน ไปวิพากษ์วิจารณ์ หรือไปมองว่าโลกมันแย่ บางทีเราต้องกลับมาดูที่ใจของเรา ว่าใจเรามันมีการเติมแต่ง รูปที่ได้เห็น เสียงที่ได้ยินหรือเปล่า

ในปฏิจจสมุปบาท จะมีปัจจยาการตอนต้นเลยที่บอกว่า อวิชชาเป็นปัจจัยให้เกิดสังขาร สังขารเป็นปัจจัยให้กับวิญญาณ ที่พูดมาก็เป็นเรื่องที่ชี้ให้เห็นว่า สังขารปรุงแต่งวิญญาณอย่างไร

สังขารในที่นี้ก็คือการปรุงแต่ง หรือความรู้สึกนึกคิดในใจ อารมณ์ที่เกิดขึ้นในใจ มันก็ไปปรุงแต่งการรับรู้ ไม่ว่าจะเป็นการรับรู้ทางตา ทางหู ทางจมูก ทางลิ้น ทางกาย หรือแม้แต่ทางใจ ถ้าใจมีความรู้สึกในทางลบ เช่นคิดลบ หรือรู้สึกลบกับใคร ก็จะเห็นภาพคนๆ นั้นในทางลบไปด้วย เห็นเป็นคนที่กระด้าง เป็นคนที่เหี้ยม เป็นคนที่ไม่น่ารัก แต่ถ้าใจมีความรู้สึกเป็นบวก ก็จะเห็นเขาเป็นคนที่เป็นมิตร เห็นเขาสุภาพ

อันนี้ก็ไม่ต่างจากเรื่องของคนผู้ชายคนหนึ่งไปพักที่โรงแรม แล้วก็ถอดสร้อยคอที่คล้องพระสมเด็จราคาแพงด้วย ไว้ที่หัวนอน ออกไปทำธุระตอนเช้า ไปออกกำลังกาย กินข้าวเสร็จก็กลับเข้ามาในห้อง สร้อยหาย เอ๊ะ ใครเอาไป สงสัยพนักงานทำความสะอาด เพราะว่าในช่วงนั้น มีพนักงานทำความสะอาดเข้าไปจัดเตียง

เขาก็ตามหาว่าใครเป็นพนักงานทำความสะอาด พอพบเห็นเขา ก็ปักใจเชื่อเลยว่าเขาขโมยเอาสร้อยคอไป แล้วก็เฝ้าสังเกตผู้ชายคนนั้น ดูท่วงท่ามีพิรุธ แววตาก็มีพิรุธ ไม่กล้าสบตาเขา ใช่แน่ๆ เลย เอาสร้อยคอของเราไป แต่ปรากฏว่าตอนสายๆ หรือตอนบ่าย ปรากฏว่าเจอสร้อยมันตกอยู่หลังเตียง

พอรู้ว่าชายคนนั้น พนักงานทำความสะอาดไม่ได้ขโมยไป ก็เห็นเขาในภาพใหม่เลย น้ำเสียงเขาก็ไม่ได้มีพิรุธอะไร พูดจาก็ดี อากัปกริยาก็ไม่ได้ผิดปกติอะไร ภาพของพนักงานทำความสะอาดเปลี่ยนไปเลย

ที่จริงก็ไม่ได้เปลี่ยนไปหรอก เขาก็เหมือนเดิม ไม่ว่าตอนเช้า ตอนสาย หรือตอนบ่าย แต่ที่เปลี่ยนไปคือใจของผู้ชายคนนั้น ทีแรกปักใจเชื่อว่าพนักงานทำความสะอาดเป็นขโมย พอคิดแบบนั้นเข้า ก็เห็นแต่พิรุธ แต่พอรู้ว่าเขาไม่ได้ขโมยไป ภาพที่เห็นก็เปลี่ยนไป อันนี้เรียกว่าสังขารเป็นปัจจัยให้เกิดวิญญาณ

แล้วไม่ใช่เฉพาะกรณีแบบนี้เท่านั้น ในชีวิตประจำวันทั่วๆ ไป เวลาเรามีความทุกข์ ความเครียด แล้วเรารู้สึกว่าเป็นเพราะโลกภายนอก เป็นเพราะคนรอบตัว เช่นเราเห็นเขาไปในทางลบทางร้าย เราก็เลยเป็นทุกข์ ให้เราลองสังเกตดูก็ได้ว่า บ่อยครั้งความทุกข์ของเรา มันเกิดจากการที่เราตีความไปในทางลบ หรือว่าปรุงแต่งไปในทางร้ายหรือเปล่า

ฉะนั้นถ้าเรารู้จักหมั่นสังเกต หมั่นทบทวน เอาประสบการณ์ที่เคยเข้าใจผิดที่ตีความในทางลบ หรือว่าเติมแต่งในทางร้าย และทำให้เราเกิดความทุกข์ เกิดความวิตก เกิดความเครียด หรือว่าเกิดความไม่พอใจ เอามาเป็นบทเรียนสอนใจ มันจะช่วยทำให้เรารู้จักทักท้วง

ทักท้วงว่าสิ่งที่เราเห็น ที่จริงมันอาจจะไม่ใช่เป็นความจริงก็ได้ มันอาจจะมีการตีความไปแล้วในทางลบ หรือที่เรามองเห็น มองออกไปข้างนอก อาจจะมีการเติมแต่งไปในทางร้ายก็ได้ ไม่ว่ารับเข้ามาจะเป็นรูป รส กลิ่น เสียงที่ได้ยิน หรือมองออกไป มันมักจะมีการตีความหรือเติมแต่ง

แล้วมันก็ไม่จำเป็นต้องเป็นทางลบ อาจจะเป็นไปในทางบวกก็ได้ อันนี้ที่เขาเรียกว่าอคติ ฉันทาคติก็คือลำเอียงเพราะชอบ อันนี้ก็หมายถึงว่า มองเห็นคลาดเคลื่อนจากความเป็นจริง เพราะว่ามีความชอบ เขาทำอะไรก็ดูดีไปหมด เขาทำอะไรก็ดูถูกต้องไปหมด ทั้งๆ ที่ที่ผิดก็มี ที่พลาดก็มี แต่ว่าไม่เห็นเพราะว่ามองเห็นแต่ด้านดี อันนี้เพราะว่าลำเอียงเพราะชอบ หรือมิฉะนั้นก็ตรงข้าม โทสาคติ ลำเอียงเพราะโกรธ หรือลำเอียงเพราะกลัว ภยาคติ หรือว่าลำเอียงเพราะหลง

อย่างกรณีของพระทิเบต ท่านก็เกิดโทสาคติ ทีแรกเกิดโทสาคติ ก็เลยเห็นเจ้าหน้าที่รักษาความปลอดภัยคนนั้น เหี้ยม ดุ เหมือนผู้ร้าย เหมือนมาเฟีย แต่พอเขามาขอบคุณ เขามาแสดงความเป็นมิตร ก็เปลี่ยนไปเลย ฉันทาคติมาแทนโทสาคติ ก็เห็นเขาเป็นคนที่เป็นมิตร สุภาพเรียบร้อย อันนี้ก็เป็นสิ่งที่เราควรจะสังเกตได้ กับประสบการณ์ของตัวเราเอง ว่ามันเป็นอย่างนั้นบ้างหรือเปล่า จะได้เป็นเครื่องเตือนใจเรา เพื่อไม่ให้เราทุกข์ ที่สร้างขึ้นมาเอง

บางครั้งความทุกข์เราไปมองว่าเป็นเพราะคนนู้นคนนี้ แต่ที่จริงเป็นเพราะการปรุงแต่ง การตีความในทางลบ หรือว่าการเติมแต่งในทางร้ายของเรา

ที่พระพุทธเจ้าตรัสว่า ธรรมทั้งหลายมีใจเป็นใหญ่ มีใจเป็นหัวหน้า สำเร็จได้ด้วยใจ อันนี้ก็เป็นตัวอย่างหนึ่งว่า โลกภายนอกที่เราเห็นผ่าน ตา หู จมูก ลิ้น กาย หรือแม้กระทั่งความคิด มันล้วนแล้วแต่เกิดหรือถูกกำหนดด้วยใจของเรา ถ้าใจเราเป็นลบก็เห็นเป็นลบ ถ้าใจเราเป็นบวกก็เห็นเป็นบวก

ฉะนั้นการกลับมาดูใจของเรา จึงเป็นเรื่องที่สำคัญมาก ถ้าไม่อยากให้เกิดไฟเผาในใจของเรา ก็ต้องกลับมาสำรวจตรวจตา หรือสอดส่องใจของเราว่า มันมีอคติ โทสาคติ ภยาคติหรือเปล่า หรือมันมีการเติมแต่งไปในทางลบทางร้ายหรือเปล่า ไม่อย่างนั้นเราก็จะสร้างหรือก่อทุกข์ขึ้นมาในใจของเรา ทั้งที่ความจริงไม่ได้เป็นอย่างนั้น.

The other day, I had the privilege of sitting down with one of my favorite living artists. Our conversation was so captivating that I felt compelled to share it. I’m leaving his name out for privacy.

Since our last meeting, I’d watched a documentary about his life, one he’d helped create. I told him how much I admired his openness in it. There’s something strange about knowing intimate details of someone’s life when they know so little about yours—it’s almost like I knew him too well for the kind of relationship we have.

He paused, then said quietly, with a shy grin, that watching the documentary made him realize how “odd and eccentric” he is. I laughed and told him he’s probably the sanest person I know. Because he’s lived fully, chasing love, passion, and purpose with hardly any regrets. He’s truly lived.

Today, I turn 44, and I’ll admit I’m a bit eccentric myself. I think I came into the world this way. I’ve made mistakes along the way, but I carry few regrets. Every misstep taught me something. And as I age, I’m not interested in blending in with the world—I’ll probably just lean further into my own brand of “weird.” I want to live life to the brim. The older I get, the more I see that the “normal” folks often seem less grounded than the eccentric artists who dare to live boldly. Life’s too short to just exist, actually live.

I’m not saying to be strange just for the sake of it. But I’ve seen what the crowd celebrates, and I’m not impressed. Forge your own path, even if it feels lonely or unpopular at times.

It’s easy to scroll through the news and feel discouraged. But actually, this is one of the most incredible times to be alive! I wake up every day grateful to be here, now. The future is bursting with possibility—I can feel it.

So, to my fellow weirdos on nostr: stay bold. Keep dreaming, keep pushing, no matter what’s trending. Stay wild enough to believe in a free internet for all. Freedom is radical—hold it tight. Live with the soul of an artist and the grit of a fighter. Thanks for inspiring me and so many others to keep hoping. Thank you all for making the last year of my life so special.

Fully devoted to Jesus: Mark 10:28 (NIV) Then Peter spoke up, “We have left everything to follow you!”

As a Christian, you received Jesus into your life because the Holy Spirit revealed to you the glory of God in Jesus and your heart melted at His sight.

You became aware of your lostness, wickedness, and hopelessness without a savior so you surrendered to Him and asked him to save you. You asked Him to become the lord of your life. The first apostles were clear about something, they had to surrender everything in order to follow Jesus. When they yielded to Jesus as Lord it meant He was Lord of all.

Yes, everything. Yes, all.

They surrendered work, possessions, essentially their lives — Mark 1:18 (NIV) At once they left their nets and followed him. They were literally fully devoted to Jesus.

They modeled 1 Kings 8:61 Let your heart therefore be wholly devoted to the Lord our God, to walk in His statutes and to keep His commandments, as at this day.”It might not look identical to the apostles calling but it should have the same motive behind it.

What is the CGT loan trap?

The Capital Gains Tax (CGT) loan trap, is where you take a bitcoin-backed loan, expecting that providing the collateral does not trigger CGT, only to find that it does trigger CGT.

Oof.

It's a particularly dangerous trap for plebs because bitcoin collateralised lending typically requires over-collateralisation which is often 2x the amount being borrowed. This means if CGT is triggered on the provision of the collateral, your CGT is 2x the CGT bill had you just sold down the bitcoin for the amount you borrowed.

That's without adding the additional cost of the interest on the loan; more oof.

Why it's important to pay attention to this

Firstly because if you're caught in the trap, you're the one who is liable and not the Lender.

Secondly, because all bitcoin transactions are permanent records and you can reasonably assume that future tax collection sleuths will backtrack through yesterday's transactions. Lenders who KYC their customers provide an easy data collection point for tax collectors, and that data doesn't go away.

And lastly, because there is no emerging signs of fiscal responsibility at the sovereign level, so it's reasonable to assume tax agencies are being directed to increase collections .. and bitcoiners aren't going to get any sort of pass there.

And of course, the bigger the Bitcoin network grows, the more attractive bitcoin collateralised lending will be, and the the more attention it will garner .. and some of that will be from tax collectors.

So, what determines if CGT is applicable?

The concept of beneficial ownership is the relevant term to understand and pay attention to. A change in beneficial ownership is what tax authorities use as the trigger to determine if a CGT event has occurred. This isn't a term or concept isolated to my country (Australia) or the US or the UK or Europe - it's one that's been actively harmonised across the G20. It applies to all asset classes.

The beneficial owner is the one who enjoys the benefits of the asset. It's slightly different to the concept of legal owner which is the person or entity on a government register as the "owner" of the asset.

And if you're a bitcoiner reading this, you're probably already aware that there is no government register of the "ownership of bitcoin" - that's very literally what the timechain, and your bitcoin private keys, are .. but we digress.

Where there is a change in the beneficial owner of an asset, that triggers a CGT liability. This isn't new, it's not related to bitcoin specifically but to all asset classes, and it is consistent over a wide group of countries. The way that each jurisdiction legislates, enforces and applies it will vary somewhat.

So let's explore how that relates to providing collateral in bitcoin-backed loans.

Types of bitcoin backed loans

Bitcoin represents pristine and unimpeachable collateral, so any dollar lender should be happily accepting it as collateral from their perspective. But let's focus on the issue of changing beneficial ownership and how that ties into the borrower's CGT liabilities.

There are loans available from platforms that provide the dollar liquidity, and there are loans from peers.

Loans from platforms

Loans from platforms are going to require KYC information because there is a centralised lender and that will come with a legal construct. The three things to pay attention to are:

1. Legal terms and conditions

Ideally, the platform terms should have a statement that acknowledges the unchanged beneficial ownership of the collateral by the borrower, as long as the borrower does not default on the loan.

There may not be such a statement, and if there is not, then the next point on how the collateral is managed needs some careful attention.

The immediate red-flag is if the terms categorically state that there is a change of beneficial ownership of the collateral; being a party to such a contract would legally acknowledge that you transferred beneficial ownership, triggering CGT.

NB: The legal terms and conditions should be generally accessible. If they aren't available then request them from support. If they're not forthcoming, then it's a giant red flag and I'd recommend you exit stage left.

1. How the collateral is custodied

A key test that is used to determine if beneficial ownership has changed is the custody of the asset(s). If bitcoin as collateral is kept in a discrete location, and is not pooled with other collateral, then there is a strong case to maintain the chain of unbroken beneficial ownership.

By contrast, collateral that is sent into a "pool" can be deemed to be disposed of, since it's not the same bitcoin that is being returned on successful completion of the loan. I am personally aware of plebs who have been "bitten" by using lending services who "pool" collateral from multiple loans into a pool, and consequently receive different bitcoin on loan completion. The safe assumption is that collateral that is pooled, will be deemed a disposal for CGT events.

1. Whether collateral can be re-hypothecated

Ignoring the very dubious issues around re-hypothecation more generally, (who remembers BlockFi, Celsius, Genesis, 3Arrows Capital etc), from a CGT trigger event perspective, if collateral can be re-hypothecated, it will likely be deemed a disposal for CGT purposes.

Loans that are peer-to-peer

There are other borrowing mechanisms that are based on enabling borrowing interaction directly between peers. These typically do not need to introduce the privacy and security risks of KYC, and so consequently do not require a specific legal contract between the peers.

The "terms" of the agreement are defined in the code that implements the contract between the parties, with the collateral held in a multi-party escrow, and returned to the Borrower should they successfully repay their loan. Only if the loan is NOT repaid, or needs to be liquidated, does the collateral change ownership.

In an ideal world, the usage terms for such platforms would acknowledge that the collateral provided by the Borrower remains their unchanged beneficial ownership unless the contract is liquidated, or the loan is not repaid.

Examples of platforms that allow peers to connect and create contracts for borrowing between themselves include Debifi, Lend at HodlHodl, Firefish and Lendasat.

How did I end up down this rabbit hole?

I narrowly avoided falling into precisely this trap recently when I was considering a loan from https://ledn.io I was curious that the Loan terms weren't available to review on their site, or from the customer dashboard after I signed up.

They happily provided them on request (https://www.ledn.io/legal/usd-loan-agreement), and once I got to Section 7 (b), it became clear this wasn't a product I wanted to use because every supply of collateral to Ledn, for any loan, would automatically trigger a CGT event.

Ledn, like every other lending platform, do not offer tax advice, and are clear to state the tax implications of using their products are up to the borrower to assess with their appropriate advisors.

Like many things in Bitcoin, this then made me curious about how widespread this practice was, what the underlying legal definitions were, how widely and harmoniously they were applied .. and here we are .. writing (and reading) blog posts!

So why borrow against your bitcoin at all?

Bitcoin-backed loans can potentially provide a mechanism to access dollars, without selling your bitcoin, and thereby deferring CGT on the sale of bitcoin.

For bitcoiners who've humbly stacked sats for several cycles, borrowing against your bitcoin, may provide a mechanism to further delay spending or selling sats, thereby increasing your purchasing power further.

When you borrow against your bitcoin, you are expecting bitcoin to continue to increase in purchasing power, and at a higher rate than the cost of the interest on the loan. Based on 16 years of bitcoin price history, this is a pretty safe assumption.

Don't however, make assumptions on CGT events that can potentially undermine the entire financial logic of going down this route in the first place; check carefully.

What will definitely trigger a CGT event?

Firstly and most obviously, if you take a bitcoin collateralised loan, and fail to repay the loan or are margin called and liquidated, then that portion of the collateral required to extinguish your loan will be sold. That's clearly a change of beneficial ownership, and that transaction will trigger a CGT liability.

Next, any service or product which explicitly requires you to acknowledge a change of beneficial ownership of the collateral on lodgement, will also trigger a CGT event.

After that, as we outlined earlier, pay close attention to collateral custody mechanisms and transparency and clarity on re-hypothecation - both of which are potential CGT trigger events.

So what's worth checking out?

Currently these are the lending offers that I'm aware of that are worth considering and I understand don't fall foul of the three key aspects outlined above.

• https://debifi.com

• https://firefish.io

• https://lend.hodlhodl.com

• https://lendasat.com/

As always, do your own checking, and validate with your accounting/legal advisors; the consequences of getting this wrong are potentially significant.

To be clear, I've no financial interest in any of these platforms, nor have I been paid to write this article, nor do I use referral codes. I have used some of these platforms, and believe them all to be operated by reputable teams with high integrity.

Final thoughts

Lastly, for those coming to the @bitcoinbushbash at the end of July in Palm Cove Queensland, I'll be presenting a session on this topic.

This piece is the first in a series that will focus on things I think are a priority if your focus is similar to mine: building a strong family and safeguarding their future.

---

Choosing the ideal place to raise a family is one of the most significant decisions you will ever make. For simplicity sake I will break down my thought process into key factors: strong property rights, the ability to grow your own food, access to fresh water, the freedom to own and train with guns, and a dependable community.

A Jurisdiction with Strong Property Rights

Strong property rights are essential and allow you to build on a solid foundation that is less likely to break underneath you. Regions with a history of limited government and clear legal protections for landowners are ideal. Personally I think the US is the single best option globally, but within the US there is a wide difference between which state you choose. Choose carefully and thoughtfully, think long term. Obviously if you are not American this is not a realistic option for you, there are other solid options available especially if your family has mobility. I understand many do not have this capability to easily move, consider that your first priority, making movement and jurisdiction choice possible in the first place.

Abundant Access to Fresh Water

Water is life. I cannot overstate the importance of living somewhere with reliable, clean, and abundant freshwater. Some regions face water scarcity or heavy regulations on usage, so prioritizing a place where water is plentiful and your rights to it are protected is critical. Ideally you should have well access so you are not tied to municipal water supplies. In times of crisis or chaos well water cannot be easily shutoff or disrupted. If you live in an area that is drought prone, you are one drought away from societal chaos. Not enough people appreciate this simple fact.

Grow Your Own Food

A location with fertile soil, a favorable climate, and enough space for a small homestead or at the very least a garden is key. In stable times, a small homestead provides good food and important education for your family. In times of chaos your family being able to grow and raise healthy food provides a level of self sufficiency that many others will lack. Look for areas with minimal restrictions, good weather, and a culture that supports local farming.

Guns

The ability to defend your family is fundamental. A location where you can legally and easily own guns is a must. Look for places with a strong gun culture and a political history of protecting those rights. Owning one or two guns is not enough and without proper training they will be a liability rather than a benefit. Get comfortable and proficient. Never stop improving your skills. If the time comes that you must use a gun to defend your family, the skills must be instinct. Practice. Practice. Practice.

A Strong Community You Can Depend On

No one thrives alone. A ride or die community that rallies together in tough times is invaluable. Seek out a place where people know their neighbors, share similar values, and are quick to lend a hand. Lead by example and become a good neighbor, people will naturally respond in kind. Small towns are ideal, if possible, but living outside of a major city can be a solid balance in terms of work opportunities and family security.

Let me know if you found this helpful. My plan is to break down how I think about these five key subjects in future posts.

Here’s a revised timeline of macro-level events from The Mandibles: A Family, 2029–2047 by Lionel Shriver, reimagined in a world where Bitcoin is adopted as a widely accepted form of money, altering the original narrative’s assumptions about currency collapse and economic control. In Shriver’s original story, the failure of Bitcoin is assumed amid the dominance of the bancor and the dollar’s collapse. Here, Bitcoin’s success reshapes the economic and societal trajectory, decentralizing power and challenging state-driven outcomes.

Part One: 2029–2032

• 2029 (Early Year)\ The United States faces economic strain as the dollar weakens against global shifts. However, Bitcoin, having gained traction emerges as a viable alternative. Unlike the original timeline, the bancor—a supranational currency backed by a coalition of nations—struggles to gain footing as Bitcoin’s decentralized adoption grows among individuals and businesses worldwide, undermining both the dollar and the bancor.

• 2029 (Mid-Year: The Great Renunciation)\ Treasury bonds lose value, and the government bans Bitcoin, labeling it a threat to sovereignty (mirroring the original bancor ban). However, a Bitcoin ban proves unenforceable—its decentralized nature thwarts confiscation efforts, unlike gold in the original story. Hyperinflation hits the dollar as the U.S. prints money, but Bitcoin’s fixed supply shields adopters from currency devaluation, creating a dual-economy split: dollar users suffer, while Bitcoin users thrive.

• 2029 (Late Year)\ Dollar-based inflation soars, emptying stores of goods priced in fiat currency. Meanwhile, Bitcoin transactions flourish in underground and online markets, stabilizing trade for those plugged into the bitcoin ecosystem. Traditional supply chains falter, but peer-to-peer Bitcoin networks enable local and international exchange, reducing scarcity for early adopters. The government’s gold confiscation fails to bolster the dollar, as Bitcoin’s rise renders gold less relevant.

• 2030–2031\ Crime spikes in dollar-dependent urban areas, but Bitcoin-friendly regions see less chaos, as digital wallets and smart contracts facilitate secure trade. The U.S. government doubles down on surveillance to crack down on bitcoin use. A cultural divide deepens: centralized authority weakens in Bitcoin-adopting communities, while dollar zones descend into lawlessness.

• 2032\ By this point, Bitcoin is de facto legal tender in parts of the U.S. and globally, especially in tech-savvy or libertarian-leaning regions. The federal government’s grip slips as tax collection in dollars plummets—Bitcoin’s traceability is low, and citizens evade fiat-based levies. Rural and urban Bitcoin hubs emerge, while the dollar economy remains fractured.

Time Jump: 2032–2047

• Over 15 years, Bitcoin solidifies as a global reserve currency, eroding centralized control. The U.S. government adapts, grudgingly integrating bitcoin into policy, though regional autonomy grows as Bitcoin empowers local economies.

Part Two: 2047

• 2047 (Early Year)\ The U.S. is a hybrid state: Bitcoin is legal tender alongside a diminished dollar. Taxes are lower, collected in BTC, reducing federal overreach. Bitcoin’s adoption has decentralized power nationwide. The bancor has faded, unable to compete with Bitcoin’s grassroots momentum.

• 2047 (Mid-Year)\ Travel and trade flow freely in Bitcoin zones, with no restrictive checkpoints. The dollar economy lingers in poorer areas, marked by decay, but Bitcoin’s dominance lifts overall prosperity, as its deflationary nature incentivizes saving and investment over consumption. Global supply chains rebound, powered by bitcoin enabled efficiency.

• 2047 (Late Year)\ The U.S. is a patchwork of semi-autonomous zones, united by Bitcoin’s universal acceptance rather than federal control. Resource scarcity persists due to past disruptions, but economic stability is higher than in Shriver’s original dystopia—Bitcoin’s success prevents the authoritarian slide, fostering a freer, if imperfect, society.

Key Differences

• Currency Dynamics: Bitcoin’s triumph prevents the bancor’s dominance and mitigates hyperinflation’s worst effects, offering a lifeline outside state control.
• Government Power: Centralized authority weakens as Bitcoin evades bans and taxation, shifting power to individuals and communities.
• Societal Outcome: Instead of a surveillance state, 2047 sees a decentralized, bitcoin driven world—less oppressive, though still stratified between Bitcoin haves and have-nots.

This reimagining assumes Bitcoin overcomes Shriver’s implied skepticism to become a robust, adopted currency by 2029, fundamentally altering the novel’s bleak trajectory.

I’ve written about MSTR twice already, https://www.chrisliss.com/p/mstr and https://www.chrisliss.com/p/mstr-part-2, but I want to focus on legendary short seller James Chanos’ current trade wherein he buys bitcoin (via ETF) and shorts MSTR, in essence to “be like Mike” Saylor who sells MSTR shares at the market and uses them to add bitcoin to the company’s balance sheet. After all, if it’s good enough for Saylor, why shouldn’t everyone be doing it — shorting a company whose stock price is more than 2x its bitcoin holdings and using the proceeds to buy the bitcoin itself?

Saylor himself has said selling shares at 2x NAV (net asset value) to buy bitcoin is like selling dollars for two dollars each, and Chanos has apparently decided to get in while the getting (market cap more than 2x net asset value) is good. If the price of bitcoin moons, sending MSTR’s shares up, you are more than hedged in that event, too. At least that’s the theory.

The problem with this bet against MSTR’s mNAV, i.e., you are betting MSTR’s market cap will converge 1:1 toward its NAV in the short and medium term is this trade does not exist in a vacuum. Saylor has described how his ATM’s (at the market) sales of shares are accretive in BTC per share because of this very premium they carry. Yes, we’ll dilute your shares of the company, but because we’re getting you 2x the bitcoin per share, you are getting an ever smaller slice of an ever bigger overall pie, and the pie is growing 2x faster than your slice is reducing. (I https://www.chrisliss.com/p/mstr how this works in my first post.)

But for this accretion to continue, there must be a constant supply of “greater fools” to pony up for the infinitely printable shares which contain only half their value in underlying bitcoin. Yes, those shares will continue to accrete more BTC per share, but only if there are more fools willing to make this trade in the future. So will there be a constant supply of such “fools” to keep fueling MSTR’s mNAV multiple indefinitely?

Yes, there will be in my opinion because you have to look at the trade from the prospective fools’ perspective. Those “fools” are not trading bitcoin for MSTR, they are trading their dollars, selling other equities to raise them maybe, but in the end it’s a dollars for shares trade. They are not selling bitcoin for them.

You might object that those same dollars could buy bitcoin instead, so they are surely trading the opportunity cost of buying bitcoin for them, but if only 5-10 percent of the market (or less) is buying bitcoin itself, the bucket in which which those “fools” reside is the entire non-bitcoin-buying equity market. (And this is not considering the even larger debt market which Saylor has yet to tap in earnest.)

So for those 90-95 percent who do not and are not presently planning to own bitcoin itself, is buying MSTR a fool’s errand, so to speak? Not remotely. If MSTR shares are infinitely printable ATM, they are still less so than the dollar and other fiat currencies. And MSTR shares are backed 2:1 by bitcoin itself, while the fiat currencies are backed by absolutely nothing. So if you hold dollars or euros, trading them for MSTR shares is an errand more sage than foolish.

That’s why this trade (buying BTC and shorting MSTR) is so dangerous. Not only are there many people who won’t buy BTC buying MSTR, there are many funds and other investment entities who are only able to buy MSTR.

Do you want to get BTC at 1:1 with the 5-10 percent or MSTR backed 2:1 with the 90-95 percent. This is a bit like medical tests that have a 95 percent accuracy rate for an asymptomatic disease that only one percent of the population has. If someone tests positive, it’s more likely to be a false one than an indication he has the disease*. The accuracy rate, even at 19:1, is subservient to the size of the respective populations.

At some point this will no longer be the case, but so long as the understanding of bitcoin is not widespread, so long as the dollar is still the unit of account, the “greater fools” buying MSTR are still miles ahead of the greatest fools buying neither, and the stock price and mNAV should only increase.

. . .

One other thought: it’s more work to play defense than offense because the person on offense knows where he’s going, and the defender can only react to him once he moves. Similarly, Saylor by virtue of being the issuer of the shares knows when more will come online while Chanos and other short sellers are borrowing them to sell in reaction to Saylor’s strategy. At any given moment, Saylor can pause anytime, choosing to issue convertible debt or preferred shares with which to buy more bitcoin, and the shorts will not be given advance notice.

If the price runs, and there is no ATM that week because Saylor has stopped on a dime, so to speak, the shorts will be left having to scramble to change directions and buy the shares back to cover. Their momentum might be in the wrong direction, though, and like Allen Iverson breaking ankles with a crossover, Saylor might trigger a massive short squeeze, rocketing the share price ever higher. That’s why he actually welcomes Chanos et al trying this copycat strategy — it becomes the fuel for outsized gains.

For that reason, news that Chanos is shorting MSTR has not shaken my conviction, though there are other more pertinent https://www.chrisliss.com/p/mstr-part-2 with MSTR, of which one should be aware. And as always, do your own due diligence before investing in anything.

* To understand this, consider a population of 100,000, with one percent having a disease. That means 1,000 have it, 99,000 do not. If the test is 95 percent accurate, and everyone is tested, 950 of the 1,000 will test positive (true positives), 50 who have it will test negative (false negatives.) Of the positives, 95 percent of 99,000 (94,050) will test negative (true negatives) and five percent (4,950) will test positive (false positives). That means 4,950 out of 5,900 positives (84%) will be false.

First off, big shoutout to Coinos for having support for adding a memo to BOLT12 offers. This provides a solid alternative for the pleb who wants to support mining decentralization but doesn’t want to set up a CLN node and pay thousands of sats for a channel only to get little rewards. This is the case for most of us who only have a miner or two (e.g. a Bitaxe and/or an S9).

Before we get into setting up Lightning payouts, you’ll want to have your miner configured to mine with OCEAN of course. You’ll also want to make sure that the bitcoin address you use is from a wallet that supports signing messages.

These are the ones listed in the OCEAN docs:

• Bitcoin Knots/Bitcoin Core
• Coldcard
• Electrum
• LND (Command Line)

I checked one of my favorite, user-friendly wallets — Blue Wallet — and it happens to support signing messages as well.

Just tap the three dots on the upper right and you’ll see the “Sign/Verify Message” button at the bottom.

Update [January 18]: You can now use Coinos to sign by going to https://coinos.io/sign

The trick here is to not refresh the page. In other words, when you're logged in to your Coinos account, go to the URL and use the legacy address (starts with a "1") that's displayed to configure your miner(s). If you refresh the page, you're going to get a new address which will cause the signing to fail later on. Remember, keep the tab open and don't refresh the page.

Whichever wallet you choose, generate a receive address to use when configuring your miner (it’ll also be your OCEAN username).

Here’s how it looks on the Bitaxe (AxeOS)…

And the Antminer S9 (Braiins OS).

NOTE: There’s a slight difference in the URL format between the two apps. Other than that, the username will be your bitcoin address followed by the optional “.” + the nickname for your machine.

You can find more details on OCEAN’s get started page.

---

Alright, now that your miner is pointed at OCEAN. Let’s configure Lightning payouts!

Generating the BOLT12 Offer

In the Coinos app, go to Receive > Bolt 12. This should be opened in another tab from the one we're using to sign the the configuration message.

Tap “Set memo” and set it to “OCEAN Payouts for [insert your bitcoin address]” (this text is case-sensitive). Use the same bitcoin address you used above to configure your miner(s).

After tapping OK, copy the BOLT12 offer (it should start with “lno”) and proceed to the next step.

Generating the Configuration Message

Navigate to the My Stats page by searching for your OCEAN Bitcoin address.

The click the Configuration link next to Next Block to access the configuration form.

Paste the BOLT12 offer here, update the block height to latest, click GENERATE, and copy the generated unsigned message.

Signing the Configuration Message

To sign the generated message, go back to Blue Wallet and use the signing function. Paste the configuration message in the Message field, tap Sign, and copy the signed message that’s generated.

If you're using Coinos to sign, return to the page that you kept open (and didn't refresh) and do the same. Paste the configuration message, click submit, and copy the signed message.

Submitting the Signed Message

Once signed, copy the signature, paste it in the OCEAN configuration form, and click CONFIRM.

If all goes well, you should see a confirmation that the configuration was successful. Congrats! 🎉

All you gotta do now is sit back, relax, and wait for a block to be found…

Or you can look into setting up DATUM. 😎

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.

Capitalism is the most effective system for scaling innovation. The pursuit of profit is an incredibly powerful human incentive. Most major improvements to human society and quality of life have resulted from this base incentive. Market competition often results in the best outcomes for all.

That said, some projects can never be monetized. They are open in nature and a business model would centralize control. Open protocols like bitcoin and nostr are not owned by anyone and if they were it would destroy the key value propositions they provide. No single entity can or should control their use. Anyone can build on them without permission.

As a result, open protocols must depend on donation based grant funding from the people and organizations that rely on them. This model works but it is slow and uncertain, a grind where sustainability is never fully reached but rather constantly sought. As someone who has been incredibly active in the open source grant funding space, I do not think people truly appreciate how difficult it is to raise charitable money and deploy it efficiently.

Projects that can be monetized should be. Profitability is a super power. When a business can generate revenue, it taps into a self sustaining cycle. Profit fuels growth and development while providing projects independence and agency. This flywheel effect is why companies like Google, Amazon, and Apple have scaled to global dominance. The profit incentive aligns human effort with efficiency. Businesses must innovate, cut waste, and deliver value to survive.

Contrast this with non monetized projects. Without profit, they lean on external support, which can dry up or shift with donor priorities. A profit driven model, on the other hand, is inherently leaner and more adaptable. It is not charity but survival. When survival is tied to delivering what people want, scale follows naturally.

The real magic happens when profitable, sustainable businesses are built on top of open protocols and software. Consider the many startups building on open source software stacks, such as Start9, Mempool, and Primal, offering premium services on top of the open source software they build out and maintain. Think of companies like Block or Strike, which leverage bitcoin’s open protocol to offer their services on top. These businesses amplify the open software and protocols they build on, driving adoption and improvement at a pace donations alone could never match.

When you combine open software and protocols with profit driven business the result are lean, sustainable companies that grow faster and serve more people than either could alone. Bitcoin’s network, for instance, benefits from businesses that profit off its existence, while nostr will expand as developers monetize apps built on the protocol.

Capitalism scales best because competition results in efficiency. Donation funded protocols and software lay the groundwork, while market driven businesses build on top. The profit incentive acts as a filter, ensuring resources flow to what works, while open systems keep the playing field accessible, empowering users and builders. Together, they create a flywheel of innovation, growth, and global benefit.

เมื่อพูดถึง Bitcoin Standard หลายคนมักนึกถึงภาพโลกอนาคตที่ทุกคนใช้บิตคอยน์ซื้อกาแฟหรือของใช้ในชีวิตประจำวัน ภาพแบบนั้นดูเหมือนไกลตัวและเป็นไปไม่ได้ในความเป็นจริง หลายคนถึงกับพูดว่า “คงไม่ทันเห็นในช่วงชีวิตนี้หรอก” แต่ในมุมมองของผม Bitcoin Standard อาจไม่ได้เริ่มต้นจากการที่เราจ่ายบิตคอยน์โดยตรงในร้านค้า แต่อาจเริ่มจากบางสิ่งที่เงียบกว่า ลึกกว่า และเกิดขึ้นแล้วในขณะนี้ นั่นคือ การล่มสลายทีละน้อยของระบบเฟียตที่เราใช้กันอยู่

ระบบเงินที่อิงกับอำนาจรัฐกำลังเข้าสู่ช่วงขาลง รัฐบาลทั่วโลกกำลังจมอยู่ในภาระหนี้ระดับประวัติการณ์ แม้แต่ประเทศมหาอำนาจก็เริ่มแสดงสัญญาณของภาวะเสี่ยงผิดนัดชำระหนี้ อัตราเงินเฟ้อกลายเป็นปัญหาเรื้อรังที่ไม่มีท่าทีจะหายไป ธนาคารที่เคยโอนฟรีเริ่มกลับมาคิดค่าธรรมเนียม และประชาชนก็เริ่มรู้สึกถึงการเสื่อมศรัทธาในระบบการเงินดั้งเดิม แม้จะยังพูดกันไม่เต็มเสียงก็ตาม

ในขณะเดียวกัน บิตคอยน์เองก็กำลังพัฒนาแบบเงียบ ๆ เงียบ... แต่ไม่เคยหยุด โดยเฉพาะในระดับ Layer 2 ที่เริ่มแสดงศักยภาพอย่างจริงจัง Lightning Network เป็น Layer 2 ที่เปิดใช้งานมาได้ระยะเวลสหนึ่ง และยังคงมีบทบาทสำคัญที่สุดในระบบนิเวศของบิตคอยน์ มันทำให้การชำระเงินเร็วขึ้น มีต้นทุนต่ำ และไม่ต้องบันทึกทุกธุรกรรมลงบล็อกเชน เครือข่ายนี้กำลังขยายตัวทั้งในแง่ของโหนดและการใช้งานจริงทั่วโลก

ขณะเดียวกัน Layer 2 ทางเลือกอื่นอย่าง Ark Protocol ก็กำลังพัฒนาเพื่อตอบโจทย์ด้านความเป็นส่วนตัวและประสบการณ์ใช้งานที่ง่าย BitVM เปิดแนวทางใหม่ให้บิตคอยน์รองรับ smart contract ได้ในระดับ Turing-complete ซึ่งทำให้เกิดความเป็นไปได้ในกรณีใช้งานอีกมากมาย และเทคโนโลยีที่น่าสนใจอย่าง Taproot Assets, Cashu และ Fedimint ก็ทำให้การออกโทเคนหรือสกุลเงินที่อิงกับบิตคอยน์เป็นจริงได้บนโครงสร้างของบิตคอยน์เอง

เทคโนโลยีเหล่านี้ไม่ใช่การเติบโตแบบปาฏิหาริย์ แต่มันคืบหน้าอย่างต่อเนื่องและมั่นคง และนั่นคือเหตุผลที่มันจะ “อยู่รอด” ได้ในระยะยาว เมื่อฐานของความน่าเชื่อถือไม่ใช่บริษัท รัฐบาล หรือทุน แต่คือสิ่งที่ตรวจสอบได้และเปลี่ยนกฎไม่ได้

แน่นอนว่าบิตคอยน์ต้องแข่งขันกับ stable coin, เงินดิจิทัลของรัฐ และ cryptocurrency อื่น ๆ แต่สิ่งที่ทำให้มันเหนือกว่านั้นไม่ใช่ฟีเจอร์ หากแต่เป็นความทนทาน และความมั่นคงของกฎที่ไม่มีใครเปลี่ยนได้ ไม่มีทีมพัฒนา ไม่มีบริษัท ไม่มีประตูปิด หรือการยึดบัญชี มันยืนอยู่บนคณิตศาสตร์ พลังงาน และเวลา

หลายกรณีใช้งานที่เคยถูกทดลองในโลกคริปโตจะค่อย ๆ เคลื่อนเข้ามาสู่บิตคอยน์ เพราะโครงสร้างของมันแข็งแกร่งกว่า ไม่ต้องการทีมพัฒนาแกนกลาง ไม่ต้องพึ่งกลไกเสี่ยงต่อการผูกขาด และไม่ต้องการ “ความเชื่อใจ” จากใครเลย

Bitcoin Standard ที่ผมพูดถึงจึงไม่ใช่การเปลี่ยนแปลงแบบพลิกหน้ามือเป็นหลังมือ แต่คือการ “เปลี่ยนฐานของระบบ” ทีละชั้น ระบบการเงินใหม่ที่อิงอยู่กับบิตคอยน์กำลังเกิดขึ้นแล้ว มันไม่ใช่โลกที่ทุกคนถือเหรียญบิตคอยน์ แต่มันคือโลกที่คนใช้อาจไม่รู้ตัวด้วยซ้ำว่า “สิ่งที่เขาใช้นั้นอิงอยู่กับบิตคอยน์”

ผู้คนอาจใช้เงินดิจิทัลที่สร้างบน Layer 3 หรือ Layer 4 ผ่านแอป ผ่านแพลตฟอร์ม หรือผ่านสกุลเงินใหม่ที่ดูไม่ต่างจากเดิม แต่เบื้องหลังของระบบจะผูกไว้กับบิตคอยน์

และถ้ามองในเชิงพัฒนาการ บิตคอยน์ก็เหมือนกับอินเทอร์เน็ต ครั้งหนึ่งอินเทอร์เน็ตก็ถูกมองว่าเข้าใจยาก ต้องพิมพ์ http ต้องรู้จัก TCP/IP ต้องตั้ง proxy เอง แต่ปัจจุบันผู้คนใช้งานอินเทอร์เน็ตโดยไม่รู้ว่าเบื้องหลังมีอะไรเลย บิตคอยน์กำลังเดินตามเส้นทางเดียวกัน โปรโตคอลกำลังถอยออกจากสายตา และวันหนึ่งเราจะ “ใช้มัน” โดยไม่ต้องรู้ว่ามันคืออะไร

หากนับจากช่วงเริ่มต้นของอินเทอร์เน็ตในยุค 1990 จนกลายเป็นโครงสร้างหลักของโลกในสองทศวรรษ เส้นเวลาของบิตคอยน์ก็กำลังเดินตามรอยเท้าของอินเทอร์เน็ต และถ้าเราเชื่อว่าวัฏจักรของเทคโนโลยีมีจังหวะของมันเอง เราก็จะรู้ว่า Bitcoin Standard นั้นไม่ใช่เรื่องของอนาคตไกลโพ้น แต่มันเกิดขึ้นแล้ว

Fear is one of the most powerful forces that shapes our decisions, limits our growth, and holds us back from living fully. Yet, freedom from fear is not about becoming fearless—it's about no longer allowing fear to control us. In uncertain times, reclaiming our power means learning how to face fear, understand it, and ultimately rise above it.

Understanding Fear’s Grip

Fear thrives in the unknown. It whispers worst-case scenarios, paralyzes action, and magnifies our sense of powerlessness. But fear is also a signal. It tells us where growth lies, where change is needed, and where courage must rise.

What Freedom from Fear Looks Like

Taking Action Despite Anxiety: You feel the fear, but you move forward anyway.

Letting Go of Control: You stop trying to predict or perfect every outcome.

Trusting Yourself: You believe in your ability to adapt and respond.

Embracing Uncertainty: You understand that discomfort is part of transformation.

Steps Toward Reclaiming Power

1. Name the Fear: Clarity shrinks fear. When you name what you're afraid of, it loses some of its grip.

2. Breathe Through It: Deep breathing brings you back to the present, where fear often has less power.

3. Challenge the Narrative: Ask: "Is this true? Is this fear protecting me or limiting me?"

4. Take Small Steps: Fear often dissolves when met with action. Start small, but start.

5. Build a Resilient Mindset: Remind yourself of what you've overcome before. You are stronger than your fear.

Why It Matters Now

In a world filled with rapid change, fear can become a default state. But freedom is a choice. A daily one. When you stop letting fear steer your life, you open the door to possibilities, growth, and deeper peace.

---

“Fear does not stop death. It stops life.”

Choose courage. Claim your power. Walk freely—even through fear.

🚀📉 #BTC วิเคราะห์ H2! พุ่งชน 105K แล้วเจอแรงขาย... จับตา FVG 100.5K เป็นจุดวัดใจ! 👀📊

จากากรวิเคราะห์ทางเทคนิคสำหรับ #Bitcoin ในกรอบเวลา H2:

สัปดาห์ที่แล้ว #BTC ได้เบรคและพุ่งขึ้นอย่างแข็งแกร่งค่ะ 📈⚡ แต่เมื่อวันจันทร์ที่ผ่านมา ราคาได้ขึ้นไปชนแนวต้านบริเวณ 105,000 ดอลลาร์ แล้วเจอแรงขายย่อตัวลงมาตลอดทั้งวันค่ะ 🧱📉

ตอนนี้ ระดับที่น่าจับตาอย่างยิ่งคือโซน H4 FVG (Fair Value Gap ในกราฟ 4 ชั่วโมง) ที่ 100,500 ดอลลาร์ ค่ะ 🎯 (FVG คือโซนที่ราคาวิ่งผ่านไปเร็วๆ และมักเป็นบริเวณที่ราคามีโอกาสกลับมาทดสอบ/เติมเต็ม)

👇 โซน FVG ที่ 100.5K นี้ ยังคงเป็น Area of Interest ที่น่าสนใจสำหรับมองหาจังหวะ Long เพื่อลุ้นการขึ้นในคลื่นลูกถัดไปค่ะ!

🤔💡 อย่างไรก็ตาม การตัดสินใจเข้า Long หรือเทรดที่บริเวณนี้ ขึ้นอยู่กับว่าราคา แสดงปฏิกิริยาอย่างไรเมื่อมาถึงโซน 100.5K นี้ เพื่อยืนยันสัญญาณสำหรับการเคลื่อนไหวที่จะขึ้นสูงกว่าเดิมค่ะ!

เฝ้าดู Price Action ที่ระดับนี้อย่างใกล้ชิดนะคะ! 📍

สวัสดีค่ะเพื่อนๆ นักเทรดที่น่ารักทุกคน! 💕 Lina Engword กลับมาพร้อมกับการวิเคราะห์ BTCUSDT.P แบบเจาะลึกเพื่อเตรียมพร้อมสำหรับเทรดวันนี้ค่ะ! 🚀

วันนี้ 12 พฤษภาคม 2568 เวลา 08.15น. ราคา BTCUSDT.P อยู่ที่ 104,642.8 USDT ค่ะ โดยมี Previous Weekly High (PWH) อยู่ที่ 104,967.8 Previous Weekly Low (PWL) ที่ 93,338 ค่ะ

✨ ภาพรวมตลาดวันนี้ ✨

จากการวิเคราะห์ด้วยเครื่องมือคู่ใจของเรา ทั้ง SMC/ICT (Demand/Supply Zone, Order Block, Liquidity), EMA 50/200, Trend Strength, Money Flow, Chart/Price Pattern, Premium/Discount Zone, Trend line, Fibonacci, Elliott Wave และ Dow Theory ใน Timeframe ตั้งแต่ 15m ไปจนถึง Week! 📊 เราพบว่าภาพใหญ่ของ BTCUSDT.P ยังคงอยู่ในแนวโน้มขาขึ้นที่แข็งแกร่งมากๆ ค่ะ 👍 โดยเฉพาะใน Timeframe Day และ Week ที่สัญญาณทุกอย่างสนับสนุนทิศทางขาขึ้นอย่างชัดเจน Money Flow ยังไหลเข้าอย่างต่อเนื่อง และเราเห็นโครงสร้างตลาดแบบ Dow Theory ที่ยก High ยก Low ขึ้นไปเรื่อยๆ ค่ะ

อย่างไรก็ตาม... ใน Timeframe สั้นๆ อย่าง 15m และ 1H เริ่มเห็นสัญญาณของการชะลอตัวและการพักฐานบ้างแล้วค่ะ 📉 อาจมีการสร้าง Buyside และ Sellside Liquidity รอให้ราคาไปกวาดก่อนที่จะเลือกทางใดทางหนึ่ง ซึ่งเป็นเรื่องปกติของการเดินทางของ Smart Money ค่ะ

⚡ เปรียบเทียบแนวโน้มแต่ละ Timeframe ⚡

🪙 แนวโน้มตรงกัน Timeframe 4H, Day, Week ส่วนใหญ่ชี้ไปทาง "ขาขึ้น" ค่ะ ทุกเครื่องมือสนับสนุนแนวโน้มนี้อย่างแข็งแกร่ง 💪 เป้าหมายต่อไปคือการไปทดสอบ PWH และ High เดิม เพื่อสร้าง All-Time High ใหม่ค่ะ! 🪙 แนวโน้มต่างกัน Timeframe 15m, 1H ยังค่อนข้าง "Sideways" หรือ "Sideways Down เล็กน้อย" ค่ะ มีการบีบตัวของราคาและอาจมีการพักฐานสั้นๆ ซึ่งเป็นโอกาสในการหาจังหวะเข้า Long ที่ราคาดีขึ้นค่ะ

💡 วิธีคิดแบบ Market Slayer 💡

เมื่อแนวโน้มใหญ่เป็นขาขึ้นที่แข็งแกร่ง เราจะเน้นหาจังหวะเข้า Long เป็นหลักค่ะ การย่อตัวลงมาในระยะสั้นคือโอกาสของเราในการเก็บของ! 🛍️ เราจะใช้หลักการ SMC/ICT หาโซน Demand หรือ Order Block ที่ Smart Money อาจจะเข้ามาดันราคาขึ้น และรอสัญญาณ Price Action ยืนยันการกลับตัวค่ะ

สรุปแนวโน้มวันนี้:

🪙 ระยะสั้น: Sideways to Sideways Down (โอกาส 55%) ↔️↘️ 🪙 ระยะกลาง: ขาขึ้น (โอกาส 70%) ↗️ 🪙 ระยะยาว: ขาขึ้น (โอกาส 85%) 🚀 🪙 วันนี้: มีโอกาสย่อตัวเล็กน้อยก่อนจะมีแรงซื้อกลับเข้ามาเพื่อไปทดสอบ PWH (โอกาส Sideways Down เล็กน้อย สลับกับ Sideways Up: 60%) 🎢

🗓️ Daily Trade Setup ประจำวันนี้ 🗓️

นี่คือตัวอย่าง Setup ที่ Lina เตรียมไว้ให้พิจารณาค่ะ (เน้นย้ำว่าเป็นเพียงแนวทาง ไม่ใช่คำแนะนำลงทุนนะคะ)

1️⃣ ตัวอย่างที่ 1: รอรับที่โซน Demand (ปลอดภัย, รอยืนยัน)

🪙 Enter: รอราคาย่อตัวลงมาในโซน Demand Zone หรือ Bullish Order Block ที่น่าสนใจใน TF 1H/4H (ดูจากกราฟประกอบนะคะ) และเกิดสัญญาณ Bullish Price Action ที่ชัดเจน เช่น แท่งเทียนกลืนกิน (Engulfing) หรือ Hammer 🪙 TP: บริเวณ PWH 104,967.8 หรือ Buyside Liquidity ถัดไป 🎯 🪙 SL: ใต้ Low ที่เกิดก่อนสัญญาณกลับตัวเล็กน้อย หรือใต้ Demand Zone ที่เข้า 🛡️ 🪙 RRR: ประมาณ 1:2.5 ขึ้นไป ✨ 🪙 อธิบาย: Setup นี้เราจะใจเย็นๆ รอให้ราคาลงมาในโซนที่มีโอกาสเจอแรงซื้อเยอะๆ ตามหลัก SMC/ICT แล้วค่อยเข้า เพื่อให้ได้ราคาที่ดีและความเสี่ยงต่ำค่ะ ต้องรอสัญญาณ Price Action ยืนยันก่อนนะคะ ✍️

2️⃣ ตัวอย่างที่ 2: Follow Breakout (สายบู๊, รับความเสี่ยงได้)

🪙 Enter: เข้า Long ทันทีเมื่อราคาสามารถ Breakout เหนือ High ล่าสุดใน TF 15m หรือ 1H พร้อม Volume ที่เพิ่มขึ้นอย่างมีนัยสำคัญ 🔥 🪙 TP: บริเวณ PWH 104,967.8 หรือ Buyside Liquidity ถัดไป 🚀 🪙 SL: ใต้ High ก่อนหน้าที่ถูก Breakout เล็กน้อย 🚧 🪙 RRR: ประมาณ 1:3 ขึ้นไป ✨ 🪙 อธิบาย: Setup นี้เหมาะกับคนที่อยากเข้าไวเมื่อเห็นโมเมนตัมแรงๆ ค่ะ เราจะเข้าเมื่อราคา Breakout แนวต้านระยะสั้นพร้อม Volume เป็นสัญญาณว่าแรงซื้อกำลังมาค่ะ เข้าได้เลยด้วยการตั้ง Limit Order หรือ Market Order เมื่อเห็นการ Breakout ที่ชัดเจนค่ะ 💨

3️⃣ ตัวอย่างที่ 3: พิจารณา Short สั้นๆ ในโซน Premium (สวนเทรนด์หลัก, ความเสี่ยงสูง)

🪙 Enter: หากราคาขึ้นไปในโซน Premium ใน TF 15m หรือ 1H และเกิดสัญญาณ Bearish Price Action ที่ชัดเจน เช่น แท่งเทียน Shooting Star หรือ Bearish Engulfing บริเวณ Supply Zone หรือ Bearish Order Block 🐻 🪙 TP: พิจารณาแนวรับถัดไป หรือ Sellside Liquidity ใน TF เดียวกัน 🎯 🪙 SL: เหนือ High ของสัญญาณ Bearish Price Action เล็กน้อย 💀 🪙 RRR: ประมาณ 1:1.5 ขึ้นไป (เน้นย้ำว่าเป็นการเทรดสวนเทรนด์หลัก ควรใช้ RRR ต่ำและบริหารขนาด Lot อย่างเข้มงวด!) 🪙 อธิบาย: Setup นี้สำหรับคนที่เห็นโอกาสในการทำกำไรจากการย่อตัวระยะสั้นค่ะ เราจะเข้า Short เมื่อเห็นสัญญาณว่าราคาอาจจะมีการพักฐานในโซนที่ถือว่า "แพง" ในกรอบสั้นๆ ค่ะ ต้องตั้ง Stop Loss ใกล้มากๆ และจับตาดูใกล้ชิดนะคะ 🚨

⚠️ Disclaimer: การวิเคราะห์นี้เป็นเพียงความคิดเห็นส่วนตัวของ Lina เท่านั้น ไม่ถือเป็นคำแนะนำในการลงทุนนะคะ การลงทุนมีความเสี่ยง ผู้ลงทุนควรศึกษาข้อมูลเพิ่มเติมและตัดสินใจด้วยความรอบคอบค่ะ 🙏

Since its emergence in 2009, Bitcoin has generated a wide range of success and failure stories. Some of these stories feature people who invested early and reaped the rewards of their foresight, while others highlight the ups and downs that define Bitcoin’s highly volatile market. Over the years, many of these cases have become iconic—serving as both inspiration and cautionary tales for newcomers.

Success stories

01 - Laszlo Hanyecz – The 10,000 Bitcoin Pizza

One of the most legendary stories in Bitcoin’s history involves Laszlo Hanyecz, a programmer from Florida. In 2010, he paid 10,000 bitcoins for two pizzas. At the time, the value was negligible, and the transaction went largely unnoticed. In retrospect, however, those 10,000 bitcoins would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars today.

Though Hanyecz didn’t become rich from this transaction, the story of the “10,000 bitcoin pizza” has become a symbol of Bitcoin’s extraordinary rise in value—and a reminder of how even small holdings in the early days could have been life-changing.

02 - Michael Saylor and MicroStrategy

Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy, made headlines in 2020 by transforming his company into the first major corporation to invest heavily in Bitcoin. Purchasing over 100,000 bitcoins as a treasury reserve, Saylor positioned Bitcoin as a strategic hedge against inflation and fiat currency devaluation.

Initially met with skepticism, Saylor’s decision turned out to be highly profitable as Bitcoin’s price soared. His bold move inspired other corporations and institutional investors to consider Bitcoin, and he remains one of the cryptocurrency’s most vocal advocates in the business world.

Failure Stories

01 - James Howells – The Lost 8,000 Bitcoins

James Howells, an IT professional from Wales, accidentally discarded a hard drive in 2013 containing the private keys to 8,000 mined bitcoins—worth only a few thousand pounds at the time. As Bitcoin's value skyrocketed, he attempted to recover the drive from a landfill, but was denied permission by local authorities.

This story has become a powerful lesson in crypto security and the consequences of lost private keys. Despite multiple campaigns to dig up the landfill, the bitcoins remain unrecovered.

02 - Mt. Gox Collapse – The Fall of a Giant

At its peak, Mt. Gox was the largest Bitcoin exchange in the world. In 2014, it collapsed after losing about 850,000 bitcoins—worth over $450 million at the time—due to hacking, internal security failures, and poor management.

The exchange’s failure devastated thousands of investors and highlighted the vulnerabilities in early crypto infrastructure. Though some funds were later recovered, the Mt. Gox disaster remains one of Bitcoin’s darkest moments and a turning point for the push toward greater security and transparency in the crypto industry.

• The impact of volatility and adoption

These stories reflect the unpredictable and high-risk nature of the Bitcoin market. The same volatility that has made millionaires has also led to substantial losses. While some view Bitcoin as a path to financial freedom and a hedge against inflation, others have suffered from poor planning, mismanagement, or unfortunate timing.

Bitcoin’s growing adoption, especially in emerging markets and among institutional players and shows its increasing legitimacy, as an alternative to traditional finance. However, exchange failures and lost fortunes underscore the need for robust infrastructure, personal responsibility, and long-term thinking.

In summary, success and failure are two sides of the same coin in the world of Bitcoin. From life-changing gains to heartbreaking losses, these stories illustrate the risks and rewards of participating in a young and volatile market. Whether as a cautionary tale or a source of inspiration, they emphasize the importance of education, security, and strategy for anyone engaging with this revolutionary form of money.

Thank you very much for reading this far. I hope everything is well with you, and sending a big hug from your favorite Bitcoiner maximalist from Madeira. Long live freedom!

Since its launch in 2009, Bitcoin has attracted the attention of a wide range of investors and visionaries who believe in its potential to revolutionize the global financial system. Over the years, several figures have stood out within the movement—either as pioneers who helped build it or as investors who bet on its future. These individuals have played crucial roles in Bitcoin's development, its growing adoption, and its legitimacy in financial markets.

• Satoshi Nakamoto

The most significant Bitcoin pioneer is undoubtedly its creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. Although the name is a pseudonym, Nakamoto's contribution to the creation and launch of Bitcoin was foundational. In 2008, Nakamoto published the famous whitepaper "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System," outlining the concept of a decentralized digital currency that could operate without the need for a central authority like a bank. In 2009, he released the Bitcoin software and mined the first block of the blockchain—the “genesis block.”

Nakamoto remained a mysterious figure and gradually withdrew from public involvement around 2011, leaving the project in the hands of a growing community of developers. Though his identity remains unknown, his impact on ushering in a new digital era is undeniable.

• Hal Finney

Hal Finney was one of Nakamoto’s earliest collaborators and is widely known as the first person to receive a Bitcoin transaction. In January 2009, he received 10 bitcoins from Nakamoto as part of an early test, becoming one of the first believers in the project. Finney, a respected programmer and cryptography expert, played a vital role in Bitcoin’s early technical development and helped promote it within the digital privacy community.

He was a dedicated advocate for decentralized technologies and supported Bitcoin until his death in 2014. Finney is remembered as a key pioneer of digital currency.

• Roger Ver

Known as “Bitcoin Jesus,” Roger Ver was one of the first investors and outspoken advocates for Bitcoin. Captivated by the idea of decentralized money, Ver made early investments in various Bitcoin-related startups and projects. He quickly recognized Bitcoin’s disruptive potential and became a leading voice promoting its adoption as a payment method and financial tool.

Ver was instrumental in creating companies and initiatives that supported Bitcoin's early ecosystem. Although he later became a controversial figure—due to his advocacy for Bitcoin Cash as an alternative to the original Bitcoin blockchain—his contributions to Bitcoin's early popularity remain significant.

• Tim Draper

Tim Draper is one of the most prominent venture capitalists in the Bitcoin space. In 2014, he famously purchased nearly 30,000 bitcoins from a U.S. government auction, following the shutdown of the Silk Road marketplace. Draper paid approximately $19 million for the coins and has since become a public advocate for Bitcoin as a viable alternative to fiat currencies.

As the founder of Draper Associates, he is known for his long-term vision and conviction in the potential of cryptocurrencies. Draper frequently promotes Bitcoin as a tool for democratizing finance and anticipates its mass adoption in the coming years.

• Michael Saylor

Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy, is a leading figure in institutional Bitcoin adoption. In 2020, he made headlines by purchasing over 100,000 bitcoins for his company—making MicroStrategy the first publicly traded company to adopt Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset. Saylor has since become a vocal proponent of Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and a superior store of value compared to fiat money.

His bold move has helped legitimize Bitcoin in the corporate world and inspired other companies to follow suit. Saylor continues to assert that Bitcoin is the future of finance and that MicroStrategy’s strategy serves as a model for corporate treasury management in the digital age.

In summary, the pioneers and investors who helped grow and promote Bitcoin have played essential roles in the evolution of this disruptive technology. From the enigmatic Satoshi Nakamoto to key figures like Hal Finney, Roger Ver, Tim Draper, and Michael Saylor, Bitcoin has been shaped by individuals with a unique vision for the future of money and financial freedom. Through their belief and perseverance, they helped lay the foundation for Bitcoin’s global adoption—transforming it from a radical idea into a revolutionary force in the financial system. While Bitcoin’s future will depend on its continued innovation and broader adoption, the contributions of these early leaders are undeniable.

Since its creation, Bitcoin has been one of the most hotly debated assets in the financial world—both by passionate supporters and skeptics. Its extreme volatility and the impact it has had on the traditional financial system have made it a constant subject of speculation. Over time, Bitcoin’s adoption has grown, sparking ongoing discussions about its future—both in terms of price and integration into the global financial system. In this context, multiple scenarios have been proposed, ranging from optimistic to cautious, depending on factors like regulation, institutional adoption, and technological innovation.

Bitcoin’s price: forecasts and influencing factors

01 - Institutional Adoption: The growing use of Bitcoin by major companies and institutional investors has been seen as a bullish driver. Companies like Tesla, MicroStrategy, and Square have added Bitcoin to their balance sheets, boosting confidence in it as a store of value. As more businesses follow suit, demand for Bitcoin could increase, pushing the price upward.

02 - Government Regulation: How governments respond to Bitcoin is one of the biggest sources of uncertainty. Heavy-handed regulation could restrict access and dampen interest, while a more favorable approach could boost adoption and support price growth. Countries like El Salvador have shown positive trends by adopting Bitcoin as legal tender, though in many others, regulation remains a significant challenge.

03 - Limited Supply: With a maximum supply of 21 million coins, Bitcoin is immune to inflationary money printing. This scarcity makes it especially attractive as a store of value, particularly during times of global economic uncertainty, potentially supporting long-term price appreciation.

04 - Technology and Scalability: Innovations like the Lightning Network and Taproot, aimed at improving scalability and transaction efficiency, could help increase Bitcoin's utility—making it more accessible for daily use and positively impacting its market value.

Global adoption of Bitcoin: The path toward financial inclusion

Bitcoin adoption is rising globally, especially in regions where traditional financial systems are inefficient or inaccessible. Countries facing economic instability, such as those plagued by high inflation or currency crises, are increasingly viewing Bitcoin as a viable alternative. Financial inclusion is a key driver of this adoption, as Bitcoin offers financial services to people excluded from the traditional banking sector.

01 - Emerging Markets: In countries like Brazil, Argentina, Nigeria, and others, demand for Bitcoin has grown as people seek to protect their assets from the devaluation of local currencies. In these regions, Bitcoin functions as both a store of value and a medium of exchange free from central authority control.

02 - Adoption by Governments and Businesses: As more companies and even governments embrace Bitcoin, its integration into the global economy could accelerate. El Salvador, for example, has shown it’s possible to adopt Bitcoin as an official currency, while more businesses are accepting it as a payment method—further legitimizing its role in global commerce.

03 - Education and Accessibility: As more people understand how Bitcoin works and appreciate its advantages—such as security, privacy, and financial freedom—adoption is likely to grow. Easier-to-use exchanges and improved wallet interfaces are making it simpler for everyday users to access and use Bitcoin.

Future scenarios: Optimism or caution?

Bitcoin's future remains uncertain, but several possible outcomes are taking shape. The optimistic scenario foresees greater price appreciation and widespread global adoption, driven by technological innovation, increased institutional trust, and the search for a decentralized alternative to the traditional financial system. In this case, Bitcoin could become a widely accepted form of payment and a global store of value, with prices reaching new all-time highs.

On the other hand, the more cautious scenario suggests that obstacles like government regulation, competition from other digital currencies, and potential technical shortcomings could prevent Bitcoin from becoming central to the financial system. Furthermore, price volatility could deter those seeking stability and security.

In summary, predictions about Bitcoin’s price and global adoption are undeniably complex and influenced by a wide range of factors. Bitcoin’s future will depend on how society, governments, and businesses respond to this new form of money. While the potential for appreciation is significant, the risks and volatility involved cannot be ignored. As global adoption increases and technology continues to evolve, it will be essential to closely monitor the developments shaping Bitcoin’s role in the global financial landscape.

I. Historical Foundations of U.S. Monetary Architecture

The early monetary system of the United States was built atop inherited commodity money conventions from Europe’s maritime economies. Silver and gold coins—primarily Spanish pieces of eight, Dutch guilders, and other foreign specie—formed the basis of colonial commerce. These units were already integrated into international trade and piracy networks and functioned with natural compatibility across England, France, Spain, and Denmark. Lacking a centralized mint or formal currency, the U.S. adopted these forms de facto.

As security risks and the practical constraints of physical coinage mounted, banks emerged to warehouse specie and issue redeemable certificates. These certificates evolved into fiduciary media—claims on specie not actually in hand. Banks observed over time that substantial portions of reserves remained unclaimed for years. This enabled fractional reserve banking: issuing more claims than reserves held, so long as redemption demand stayed low. The practice was inherently unstable, prone to panics and bank runs, prompting eventual centralization through the formation of the Federal Reserve in 1913.

Following the Civil War and unstable reinstatements of gold convertibility, the U.S. sought global monetary stability. After World War II, the Bretton Woods system formalized the U.S. dollar as the global reserve currency. The dollar was nominally backed by gold, but most international dollars were held offshore and recycled into U.S. Treasuries. The Nixon Shock of 1971 eliminated the gold peg, converting the dollar into pure fiat. Yet offshore dollar demand remained, sustained by oil trade mandates and the unique role of Treasuries as global reserve assets.

II. The Structure of Fiduciary Media and Treasury Demand

Under this system, foreign trade surpluses with the U.S. generate excess dollars. These surplus dollars are parked in U.S. Treasuries, thereby recycling trade imbalances into U.S. fiscal liquidity. While technically loans to the U.S. government, these purchases act like interest-only transfers—governments receive yield, and the U.S. receives spendable liquidity without principal repayment due in the short term. Debt is perpetually rolled over, rarely extinguished.

This creates an illusion of global subsidy: U.S. deficits are financed via foreign capital inflows that, in practice, function more like financial tribute systems than conventional debt markets. The underlying asset—U.S. Treasury debt—functions as the base reserve asset of the dollar system, replacing gold in post-Bretton Woods monetary logic.

III. Emergence of Tether and the Parastatal Dollar

Tether (USDT), as a private issuer of dollar-denominated tokens, mimics key central bank behaviors while operating outside the regulatory perimeter. It mints tokens allegedly backed 1:1 by U.S. dollars or dollar-denominated securities (mostly Treasuries). These tokens circulate globally, often in jurisdictions with limited banking access, and increasingly serve as synthetic dollar substitutes.

If USDT gains dominance as the preferred medium of exchange—due to technological advantages, speed, programmability, or access—it displaces Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs) not through devaluation, but through functional obsolescence. Gresham’s Law inverts: good money (more liquid, programmable, globally transferable USDT) displaces bad (FRNs) even if both maintain a nominal 1:1 parity.

Over time, this preference translates to a systemic demand shift. Actors increasingly use Tether instead of FRNs, especially in global commerce, digital marketplaces, or decentralized finance. Tether tokens effectively become shadow base money.

IV. Interaction with Commercial Banking and Redemption Mechanics

Under traditional fractional reserve systems, commercial banks issue loans denominated in U.S. dollars, expanding the money supply. When borrowers repay loans, this destroys the created dollars and contracts monetary elasticity. If borrowers repay in USDT instead of FRNs:

• Banks receive a non-Fed liability (USDT).
• USDT is not recognized as reserve-eligible within the Federal Reserve System.
• Banks must either redeem USDT for FRNs, or demand par-value conversion from Tether to settle reserve requirements and balance their books.

This places redemption pressure on Tether and threatens its 1:1 peg under stress. If redemption latency, friction, or cost arises, USDT’s equivalence to FRNs is compromised. Conversely, if banks are permitted or compelled to hold USDT as reserve or regulatory capital, Tether becomes a de facto reserve issuer.

In this scenario, banks may begin demanding loans in USDT, mirroring borrower behavior. For this to occur sustainably, banks must secure Tether liquidity. This creates two options: - Purchase USDT from Tether or on the secondary market, collateralized by existing fiat. - Borrow USDT directly from Tether, using bank-issued debt as collateral.

The latter mirrors Federal Reserve discount window operations. Tether becomes a lender of first resort, providing monetary elasticity to the banking system by creating new tokens against promissory assets—exactly how central banks function.

V. Structural Consequences: Parallel Central Banking

If Tether begins lending to commercial banks, issuing tokens backed by bank notes or collateralized debt obligations: - Tether controls the expansion of broad money through credit issuance. - Its balance sheet mimics a central bank, with Treasuries and bank debt as assets and tokens as liabilities. - It intermediates between sovereign debt and global liquidity demand, replacing the Federal Reserve’s open market operations with its own issuance-redemption cycles.

Simultaneously, if Tether purchases U.S. Treasuries with FRNs received through token issuance, it: - Supplies the Treasury with new liquidity (via bond purchases). - Collects yield on government debt. - Issues a parallel form of U.S. dollars that never require redemption—an interest-only loan to the U.S. government from a non-sovereign entity.

In this context, Tether performs monetary functions of both a central bank and a sovereign wealth fund, without political accountability or regulatory transparency.

VI. Endgame: Institutional Inversion and Fed Redundancy

This paradigm represents an institutional inversion:

• The Federal Reserve becomes a legacy issuer.
• Tether becomes the operational base money provider in both retail and interbank contexts.
• Treasuries remain the foundational reserve asset, but access to them is mediated by a private intermediary.
• The dollar persists, but its issuer changes. The State becomes a fiscal agent of a decentralized financial ecosystem, not its monetary sovereign.

Unless the Federal Reserve reasserts control—either by absorbing Tether, outlawing its instruments, or integrating its tokens into the reserve framework—it risks becoming irrelevant in the daily function of money.

Tether, in this configuration, is no longer a derivative of the dollar—it is the dollar, just one level removed from sovereign control. The future of monetary sovereignty under such a regime is post-national and platform-mediated.

In einem Artikel in der NZZ vom 27. Mai mit dem Titel "Trump nennt Putin verrückt" wird über den laut Kiew grössten russischen Drohnenangriff seit Beginn des Krieges auf ukrainische Städte berichtet. Dabei sollen am vergangenen Wochenende 355 Drohnen und 69 Raketen auf Kiew, Odessa, Ternipol (Westukraine) und andere Städte gesteuert bzw. abgefeuert worden sein. 288 Drohnen und 9 Raketen konnten laut Kiew von der ukrainischen Luftverteidigung abgeschossen werden. Was der Artikel verschweigt: bereits in der Woche davor, am 20. - 22. Mai hatte die Ukraine 485 Drohnen gegen russische Städte wie Kursk, Belgorod oder Brijansk geflogen, 63 davon erreichten die Region Moskau. Auch am Wochenende schickten die Ukrainer 205 Drohnen gegen russische Städte, 13 davon erreichten Moskau. Auch hier konnte die Luftverteidigung die meisten Drohnen unschädlich machen, eine davon hatte gar den Helikopter von Präsident Putin (!) im Visier. Als Reaktion darauf erklärte Präsident Putin, dass in der ukrainischen Region Sumy bzw. Tschernihiw im Norden eine Sicherheitszoneeingerichtet werden soll da die meisten Drohnen von hier aus gestartet wurden. Auch am 27./28. Mai schickte die Ukraine wieder 296 Drohnen Richtung Moskau, offenbar soll die russische Luftverteidigung damit überlastet werden um später westliche Cruise Missiles wie "Storm shadows", "Skalp" oder die umstrittenen deutschen "Taurus" effektiver einsetzen zu können. Der neue Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz hat dafür rund 5 Milliarden Euro in Aussicht gestellt um solche Waffensysteme in der Ukraine selber zusammenbauen zu können. 

Diese Gewaltspirale hat eine lange Geschichte: diese begann 2007 mit der 43. Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz, in der Präsident Putin sich gegen die unilaterale Weltordnung der USA und ihrer Verbündeten aussprach. Auch erteilte er den NATO-Osterweiterungen seit 1991 eine deutliche Absage, da diese entgegen (mündlich) gemachten Zusicherungen vollzogen wurden (siehe im Anhang die Rede im Wortlaut). Bei anderer Gelegenheit bezeichnete er vor allem einen möglichen NATO-Beitritt der (ehemals russischen) Ukraine als die "rote Linie", da es hier im Osten eine gemeinsame Grenze zu Russland über weit mehr als tausend Kilometer gebe und zudem Millionen von russischstämmigen Bürgern in der Ukraine lebten welche durch die Unabhängigkeit des Landes von ihrem Mutterland getrennt seinen. Im mittlerweile umstrittenen Budapester Memorandum von 5.12.1994 hatten zudem die Signatarmächte USA, GB und die Russische Föderation in getrennten Dokumenten die Unabhängigkeit und territoriale Integrität der Ukraine garantiert, wenn diese ein neutraler Pufferstaat zwischen der NATO und der Russischen Föderation sei und auf ihre Atomwaffen aus der sowjetischen Zeit verzichte (die Neutralität war in der ukrainischen Verfassung verankert). Trotzdem erklärten am darauffolgenden NATO-Gipfel in Bukarest im April 2008 die versammelten Staats- und Regierungschefs der 26 NATO-Staaten: "Die NATO begrüßt die euro-atlantischen Bestrebungen der Ukraine und Georgiens, die dem Bündnis beitreten wollen. Wir kamen heute überein, dass diese Länder NATO-Mitglieder werden." Zudem wurde die Unabhängigkeitserklärung des Kosowo vorbehaltlos anerkannt, dies nach einer völkerrechtswidrigen militärischen Intervention (d.h. ohne eine entsprechende UN-Resolution) der NATO gegen die Republik Serbien im Jahr 1999 (Staatsgrenzen dürfen also unter Umständen verändert werden).

Die Gewalt begann schon wenige Monate danach, als der durch die "Rosenrevolution" 2003 mit Unterstützung der USA in Tiflis an die Macht gekommene Exil-Georgier, Michail Saakaschwili, in der Nacht auf den 8.8.2008 einen militärischen Angriff auf die seit 1992/93 abtrünnigen Südosseten bzw. deren Hauptstadt Zchinwali befahl und dabei auch russische Friedenstruppen (als Schutzmacht der Osseten) unter Beschuss gerieten. Dies nachdem die Regierung Bush jr. die georgische Armee durch NATO-Offiziere ausgebildet und aufgerüstet hatte. Laut einem NZZ-Artikel vom 1.10.2009 kam eine von der EU eingesetzte Untersuchungskommission unter der Schweizer Diplomatin Heidi Tagliavini 2009 zum Schluss, dass zuvor von beiden Seiten Provokationen in Form von Terroranschlägen, Entführungen und Morde begangen worden waren. Zudem hatte Russland jahrelang an willige Osseten und Abchasen russische Pässe ausgegeben, was völkerrechtswidrig sei, da dies die Staatlichkeit Georgiens untergrabe (Abchasien ist eine weitere abtrünnige Region Georgiens am schwarzen Meer). Saakaschwili wollte offenkundig mit dem überraschenden Angriff auf die Osseten die volle Kontrolle der Zentralregierung über das Gebiet wieder erlangen, da die Satzungen der NATO nur die Aufnahme von Ländern erlauben in denen keine ungelösten territorialen Konflikte vorhanden sind. Den Abchasen hätte also das gleiche Schicksal gedroht wenn die Aktion erfolgreich gewesen wäre. Da die Russen aber aufgepasst hatten, lief innert 24 Stunden eine russische Gegenoffensive welche die georgischen Verbände und ihre amerikanischen Berater innert wenigen Tagen bis nach Gori (Geburtsort von Stalin) zurückwarf. Präsident Saakaschwili verlor bald darauf in Tiflis die Macht und setzte sich in die Ukraine ab. Die heutige georgische Regierung unterhält wieder politische und wirtschaftliche Beziehungen zu Russland und verzichtet auf einen NATO-Beitritt. Siehe dazu das Interview von Roger Köppel mit dem aktuellen georgischen Regierungschef Kobachidse (auf englisch mit deutschen Untertiteln):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWh6bAfLdhw

In der Ukraine begann die Gewalt mit dem rechtswidrigen Sturz des 2010 legal gewählten Präsidenten Wiktor Janukowitsch, der zwischen der EU und Russland hin und her gerissen war und daher die Unterzeichnung eines EU-Assoziierungsabkommens auf unbestimmte Zeit vertagte. Nach den folgenden wochenlangen Protesten und Krawallen auf dem Maidan in Kiew ("Euromaidan") unterschrieb er unter Vermittlung Deutschlands, Frankreichs und Polens am 21.2.2014 einen Vertrag mit der Opposition und versprach baldige Neuwahlen. Trotzdem wurde er am Tag darauf durch einen regelrechten Putsch gestürzt und in die Flucht getrieben, indem unbekannte Heckenschützen aus verschiedenen Positionen zuerst auf die "Berkut"-Polizei und anschliessend auf militante Demonstranten schossen, welche die "Institutskaja" hinauf das durch eine Strassensperre der Polizei geschützte Regierungsviertel stürmen wollten.

Dabei kamen insgesamt 104 Menschen ums Leben, darunter 34 Polizisten und Vertreter der Regierung. Nach dem Putsch wurde der zuvor völlig unbekannte Exil-Ukrainer Arsenij Jazenjuk Chef der neuen Übergangsregierung, von dem die Europagesandte des US-Statedepartements, Victoria Nuland, bereits einige Tage davor in einem abgehörten Telefongespräch mit dem amerikanischen Botschafter in Kiew, Geoffrey Pyatt, gesprochen hatte ("Jaz is our man"). Die mit rund 600 Mann unter Führung von Andrij Parubi während Wochen auf dem Maidan präsenten militanten und teilweise bewaffneten Kräfte des "Prawi sektor" ("Rechter Sektor") und der "Swoboda" ("Freiheit") weigerten sich zuerst, der neuen Regierung ihre Waffen auszuhändigen. Mitglieder der "Swoboda" unter Oleh Tjahibok besetzten aber anfangs im Kabinett das Aussen-, Innen-, Verteidigungs- sowie das Ministerium für Kultur und "strategische" Kommunikation (Propaganda), während die Mitglieder des "Prawi sektor" unter Dmitro Jarosch eine Zusammenarbeit mit der neuen Regierung verweigerten. Als eine der ersten Amtshandlungen nach dem Putsch wurde in der ganzen Ukraine die russische Sprache als offizielle Amtssprache und als Unterrichtssprache in den Schulen verboten (auch in den mehrheitlich von russischstämmigen Menschen bewohnten Regionen im Osten und Süden des Landes).

Als erste Reaktion auf den rechtswidrigen Umsturz wurde in Simferopol auf der Krim das lokale Parlament von prorussischen Aktivisten besetzt und russische Soldaten verliessen illegal den Flottenstützpunkt in Sewastopol und besetzten strategische Positionen auf der ganzen Krim bzw. blockierten die ukrainischen Kasernen. Unter dem Schutz dieser "grünen Männchen" konnte dann am 16.3.2014 ein Referendum über den zukünftigen Status der Krim durchgeführt werden. Rund 70% der Bevölkerung stimmten für eine Wiedervereinigung mit Russland, was ungefähr dem Anteil der ethnischen Russen auf der Krim entspricht. Der Kommandant der ukrainischen Flotte in Sewastopol lief mit dem Grossteil der Matrosen zu den Russen über, so dass fast die gesamte Flotte im Kriegshafen verblieb (die Schwarzmeerflotte war anfang der 90er Jahre zwischen Russland und der Ukraine aufgeteilt worden). Die restlichen Matrosen und Soldaten durften später in die Ukraine heimkehren. Angesichts der klaren Machtverhältnisse auf der Krim verzichteten die ukrainischen Ultra-Nationalisten auf die angedrohte Entsendung von "Zügen der Freundschaft" (mit bewaffneten Schlägern) nach Simferopol.

Auch in den Städten Lugansk, Donezk und Mariupol in der Ostukraine besetzten prorussische Aktivisten analog den Vorgängen einige Monate zuvor in der Westukraine Regierungs- und Verwaltungsgebäude und hissten russische Fahnen auf vielen Gebäuden. Auch hier gab es am 11. bzw. 12.5.2014 Referenden über die zukünftige Zugehörigkeit dieser Gebiete, doch konnten dabei nur ungefähr die Hälfte der Bevölkerungen überhaupt darüber abstimmen, weil die Separatisten nicht die volle Kontrolle über die jeweiligen Bezirke hatten. Auch in anderen ukrainischen Städten wie Odessa und Charkow gab es prorussische Demonstrationen, doch wurden diese von den ukrainischen Behörden unterdrückt. In Odessa kam es am 2.5.2014 zu einem Massaker, als prorussische Aktivisten von mit Zügen aus Kiew angereisten Rechtsradikalen und Hooligans in ein Gewerkschaftshaus abgedrängt wurden welches dann kurzerhand abgefackelt und mit Handfeuerwaffen beschossen wurde. Rund 50 Menschen verloren dabei ihr Leben während die ukrainische Polizei untätig herumstand.

Die am 12.4.2014 von der neuen Regierung in Kiew verkündete "Antiterror-Operation" gegen die Separatisten im Osten wurde anfangs nur zaghaft umgesetzt, da viele russischstämmige Soldaten auch hier mit den Aufständischen sympathisierten und teilweise mitsamt dem Material überliefen. Erst nachdem sich der "Spreu vom Weizen" getrennt hatte und nach der Bildung von Freiwilligenverbänden wie "Donbas","Asow" oder "Aidar" - welche in der ukrainischen Nationalgarde (dem Innen- und nicht dem Verteidigungsministerium unterstellt) zusammengefasst wurden - gewann die ukrainische Offensive an Kraft, so dass bereits im Mai/Juni 2014 die Hafenstadt Mariupol vom Asow'schen Bataillon (später ein Regiment bzw. neu die 12. Brigade für spezielle Aufgaben) und einer Marinebrigade zurückerobert und bis zur vollständigen Kapitulation im berühmten Stahlwerk "Asowstal" nach der russischen Intervention vom 24.2.2022 besetzt werden konnte. Bei den heftigen Kämpfen im Frühjahr 2022 mussten die Zivilisten wochenlang im Keller ausharren, da die Stadtverwaltung die rechtzeitige Evakuierung der Zivilbevölkerung versäumt hatte). Nach den Kesselschlachten von Ilowaisk im Juli/Aug. 2014 bzw. von Debaltsewoim Jan./Feb. 2015, bei denen weit über tausend ukrainische Soldaten und hunderte von Kämpfern der neu aufgestellten Donezker- und Lugansker Volksmilizen sowie vermutlich rund 100 russische Soldaten ihr Leben verloren (laut Kiew beteiligten sich mehrere russische Bataillone an den Kämpfen), wurde am 12.2.2015 das Minsker Abkommen (Minsk II) unter Vermittlung von Weissrussland, Deutschland und Frankreich unterzeichnet. Vertragspartner als Unterzeichnende waren: der frühere Präsident der Ukraine Leonid Kutschma, der Botschafter der Russischen Föderation in der Ukraine Michail Surabow, die Milizenführer der selbstproklamierten Volksrepubliken Igor Plotnizki und Alexander Sachartschenko sowie die OSZE-Beauftragte Heidi Tagliavini. Der Waffenstillstand und die vertrauensbildenden Massnahmen (wie z.B. der Rückzug der schweren Waffen von der Frontlinie) wurden dabei von beiden Seiten wiederholt verletzt. Am 18.2.2017 unterzeichnete der russische Präsident Wladimir Putin ein Dekret, nach dem Pässe und andere Papiere der Volksrepubliken Donezk und Lugansk von Russland offiziell als gültig anerkannt wurden, was wiederum die Staatlichkeit der Ukraine untergrub und daher dem Minsker Abkommen widersprach, wonach die abtrünnigen Gebiete weiterhin zur Ukraine gehörten. Insgesamt verloren in dem jahrelangen Konflikt bis 2022 rund 14'000 Menschen ihr Leben, darunter ca. 3'500 Zivilisten inkl. 200 Kinder, besonders in der Stadt Donezk und Umgebung welche von der ukrainischen Armee immer wieder mit Artillerie (Granaten und Raketen) oder durch Scharfschützen beschossen wurde.

Nachdem eine von NATO-Offizieren jahrelang gut ausgebildete und mit modernen Waffen aufgerüstete ukrainische Elitearmee von rund 130'000 Mann ab Sommer 2021 vor dem Donbas aufmarschiert war um den Konflikt offenkundig gewaltsam zu lösen und seit Anfang 2022 auch der ukrainische Beschuss von Donezk und dessen Umland wieder verstärkt wurde, unterzeichnete Präsident Putin am 21.2.2022 ein Freundschafts- und Beistandsabkommen mit den ostukrainischen Volksrepubliken und anerkannte ausdrücklich deren Unabhängigkeitvon Kiew. Das Minsker Abkommen habe keine Zukunft mehr. Am 24.2.2022 intervenierte die russische Armee mit anfangs "nur" rund 190'000 Mann in der Ukraine da die rund 40'000 Mann der Donezker- und Lugansker Volksmilizen einem Angriff der ukrainischen Elitearmee nicht mehr hätten standhalten können. Zuvor hatte die Russische Föderation im Dez. 2021 den USA noch einmal Verhandlungen über den Abschluss eines gesamteuropäischen Sicherheitsabkommen unter Berücksichtigung des Konflikts in der Ukraine vorgeschlagen, was aber von der Regierung Biden abgelehnt wurde. Bei Beginn der "speziellen Militäroperation" erklärte Joe Biden öffentlich, das politische Ziel sei der Sturz des Regimes in Moskau.

Mit dem Beginn der russischen Sommeroffensive an allen Frontabschnitten dürften die ukrainischen Kräfte endgültig überdehnt werden. Da der Oberbefehlshaber der Ukraine, Alexander Syrskij, aus der Region Sumy und Charkow verschiedene Verbände wie die 36. Marinebrigade, die 43. Artilleriebrigade, die 44. mechanisierte Brigade, die 82. Air Assault Brigade sowie die berüchtigte 12. Brigade "Asow" nach Südosten verlegen musste, um die Lage um den wichtigen Logistikpunkt Pokrowsk bzw. die Stadt Konstantinowka zu stabilisieren, dürften die Russen auch bei der oben erwähnten Einrichtung einer Sicherheitszone im Norden rasche Fortschritte machen. Rund 50'000 russische Soldaten werden dort eingesetzt um die zukünftige Bedrohung durch ukrainische Drohnen zu minimieren.

Zusammenfassend kann gesagt werden, dass in dem jahrelangen Konflikt alle Seiten das Völkerrecht missachtetoder zum eigenen Vorteil interpretiert haben. Angefangen damit hat aber klar der Westen (NATO und EU), der mit der finanziellen und politischen Unterstützung des rechtswidrigen Putsches in Kiew 2014 die Gewaltspirale in der Ukraine in Gang setzte und mit den anhaltenden Waffenlieferungen und Geheimdienstinformationen für den Tod von weit mehr als einer Million Soldaten auf beiden Seiten und unzähligen Zivilisten entscheidend mitverantwortlichist. Zudem wurde zumindest im Falle der Ukraine mit der NATO-Erklärung von 2008 zu deren Aufnahme als Beitrittskandidat der Geist des Budapester Memorandums von 1994 verletzt. In einem erstaunlich offenen, zweiseitigen Interview in der NZZ vom 6. Mai hat der amerikanische Politikwissenschaftler Prof. John Mearsheimervon der Universität Chicago erklärt, er hätte anstelle von Präsident Putin "die Ukraine schon viel früher überfallen". Und: "Der Westen ist der Bösewicht. Aber das wollen die USA und die Europäer natürlich nicht hören". Er glaube, dass dieser Krieg auf dem Schlachtfeld entschieden werde und dass wir am Ende einen eingefrorenen Konflikt haben werden (ähnlich wie in Georgien).

Über das Problem des ukrainischen Faschismus und Ultra-Nationalismus, der letztlich die multiethnische Ukraine in ihren Grenzen von 1991 zerstört hat, äusserte er sich nicht. Stattdessen hat die EU gerade die ersten 150 Milliarden Euro zum Aufbau einer eigenen Rüstungsindustrie beschlossen. Der neue Vorsteher des Schweizer Verteidigungsdepartementes, Bundesrat Martin Pfister, hat in einem NZZ-Artikel vom 27. Mai erklärt, die Kooperation mit der EU und der NATO müsse intensiviert werden, "stets in Vereinbarkeit mit der Neutralität". In der gleichen NZZ-Ausgabe wurde auch berichtet, dass die Schweiz den Spitzendiplomaten Gabriel Lüchinger nach Moskau schicke um für Friedensgespräche in der Schweiz zu sondieren (Bürgenstock II).

Ob der während Jahren provozierte und stigmatisierte "russische Bär" darauf noch eingeht?

With the growing digitalization of money, governments around the world have begun developing Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) in response to the rising popularity of Bitcoin. While Bitcoin represents a decentralized and censorship-resistant financial system, CBDCs are digital versions of fiat currencies, directly controlled by central banks. This emerging competition could shape the future of money and define the balance between financial freedom and state control.

Key differences between Bitcoin and CBDCs

Bitcoin and CBDCs differ in nearly every fundamental aspect:

01 - Centralization vs Decentralization: Bitcoin operates on a decentralized network where no government or entity can change the rules or censor transactions. CBDCs, on the other hand, are issued and managed by central banks, enabling greater control over the circulation and use of money.

02 - Fixed Supply vs Controlled Inflation: Bitcoin has a fixed supply of 21 million units, making it a scarce and deflationary asset. CBDCs can be issued without limits, much like traditional fiat currencies, and are subject to inflationary monetary policies.

03 - Privacy vs Surveillance: Bitcoin allows pseudonymous transactions, ensuring a certain degree of financial privacy. CBDCs may be designed to track every transaction, enabling full governmental oversight—and potentially, control over how citizens spend their money.

04 - Censorship Resistance vs State Control: Bitcoin enables anyone to transact without needing third-party approval. CBDCs, being centralized, could be used by governments to restrict undesirable transactions or even freeze funds at the press of a button.

What are governments aiming for with CBDCs?

The introduction of CBDCs is often promoted with benefits such as:

01 - Greater efficiency in financial transactions by removing intermediaries and reducing banking costs.

02 - Easier implementation of economic policies, such as direct stimulus payments or automated taxation.

03 - Enhanced ability to combat illegal activities through real-time transaction tracking.

However, these justifications raise serious concerns about the erosion of financial privacy and the expansion of government power over the monetary system.

Bitcoin as an alternative to CBDCs

The rise of CBDCs may, in fact, reinforce Bitcoin’s position as the true alternative to state-controlled money. As citizens become aware of the risks associated with a fully centralized financial system, demand for a decentralized, censorship-resistant asset like Bitcoin may increase.

01 - Protection from state control: Bitcoin empowers users with full sovereignty over their money, free from arbitrary freezes or confiscations.

02 - Preservation of financial privacy: Unlike CBDCs, which may monitor every transaction, Bitcoin offers a level of anonymity that shields individuals from excessive surveillance.

03 - Store of value against inflation: While governments can endlessly issue CBDCs, Bitcoin’s guaranteed scarcity positions it as a hedge against irresponsible monetary policy.

In summary, the competition between Bitcoin and CBDCs is set to become one of the defining financial battles of the future. As governments seek to reinforce their control through centralized digital currencies, Bitcoin remains the leading option for those who value financial independence and protection from state surveillance. The choice between a free, decentralized financial system and a monitored, government-controlled one may determine the course of the digital economy for decades to come.

Thank you very much for reading this far. I hope everything is well with you, and sending a big hug from your favorite Bitcoiner maximalist from Madeira. Long live freedom!

Someone asked for my thoughts, so I’ll share them thoughtfully. I’m not here to dictate how to promote Nostr—I’m still learning about it myself. While I’m not new to Nostr, freedom tech is a newer space for me. I’m skilled at advocating for topics I deeply understand, but freedom tech isn’t my expertise, so take my words with a grain of salt. Nothing I say is set in stone.

Those who need Nostr the most are the ones most vulnerable to censorship on other platforms right now. Reaching them requires real-time awareness of global issues and the dynamic relationships between governments and tech providers, which can shift suddenly. Effective Nostr promoters must grasp this and adapt quickly.

The best messengers are people from or closely tied to these at-risk regions—those who truly understand the local political and cultural dynamics. They can connect with those in need when tensions rise. Ideal promoters are rational, trustworthy, passionate about Nostr, but above all, dedicated to amplifying people’s voices when it matters most.

Forget influencers, corporate-backed figures, or traditional online PR—it comes off as inauthentic, corny, desperate and forced. Nostr’s promotion should be grassroots and organic, driven by a few passionate individuals who believe in Nostr and the communities they serve.

The idea that “people won’t join Nostr due to lack of reach” is nonsense. Everyone knows X’s “reach” is mostly with bots. If humans want real conversations, Nostr is the place. X is great for propaganda, but Nostr is for the authentic voices of the people.

Those spreading Nostr must be so passionate they’re willing to onboard others, which is time-consuming but rewarding for the right person. They’ll need to make Nostr and onboarding a core part of who they are. I see no issue with that level of dedication. I’ve been known to get that way myself at times. It’s fun for some folks.

With love, I suggest not adding Bitcoin promotion with Nostr outreach. Zaps already integrate that element naturally. (Still promote within the Bitcoin ecosystem, but this is about reaching vulnerable voices who needed Nostr yesterday.)

To promote Nostr, forget conventional strategies. “Influencers” aren’t the answer. “Influencers” are not the future. A trusted local community member has real influence—reach them. Connect with people seeking Nostr’s benefits but lacking the technical language to express it. This means some in the Nostr community might need to step outside of the Bitcoin bubble, which is uncomfortable but necessary. Thank you in advance to those who are willing to do that.

I don’t know who is paid to promote Nostr, if anyone. This piece isn’t shade. But it’s exhausting to see innocent voices globally silenced on corporate platforms like X while Nostr exists. Last night, I wondered: how many more voices must be censored before the Nostr community gets uncomfortable and thinks creatively to reach the vulnerable?

A warning: the global need for censorship-resistant social media is undeniable. If Nostr doesn’t make itself known, something else will fill that void. Let’s start this conversation.

@ d61f3bc5:0da6ef4a

I remember the first gathering of Nostr devs two years ago in Costa Rica. We were all psyched because Nostr appeared to solve the problem of self-sovereign online identity and decentralized publishing. The protocol seemed well-suited for textual content, but it wasn't really designed to handle binary files, like images or video.

The Problem

When I publish a note that contains an image link, the note itself is resilient thanks to Nostr, but if the hosting service disappears or takes my image down, my note will be broken forever. We need a way to publish binary data without relying on a single hosting provider.

We were discussing how there really was no reliable solution to this problem even outside of Nostr. Peer-to-peer attempts like IPFS simply didn't work; they were hopelessly slow and unreliable in practice. Torrents worked for popular files like movies, but couldn't be relied on for general file hosting.

Awesome Blossom

A year later, I attended the Sovereign Engineering demo day in Madeira, organized by Pablo and Gigi. Many projects were presented over a three hour demo session that day, but one really stood out for me.

Introduced by hzrd149 and Stu Bowman, Blossom blew my mind because it showed how we can solve complex problems easily by simply relying on the fact that Nostr exists. Having an open user directory, with the corresponding social graph and web of trust is an incredible building block.

Since we can easily look up any user on Nostr and read their profile metadata, we can just get them to simply tell us where their files are stored. This, combined with hash-based addressing (borrowed from IPFS), is all we need to solve our problem.

How Blossom Works

The Blossom protocol (Blobs Stored Simply on Mediaservers) is formally defined in a series of BUDs (Blossom Upgrade Documents). Yes, Blossom is the most well-branded protocol in the history of protocols. Feel free to refer to the spec for details, but I will provide a high level explanation here.

The main idea behind Blossom can be summarized in three points:

1. Users specify which media server(s) they use via their public Blossom settings published on Nostr;
2. All files are uniquely addressable via hashes;
3. If an app fails to load a file from the original URL, it simply goes to get it from the server(s) specified in the user's Blossom settings.

Just like Nostr itself, the Blossom protocol is dead-simple and it works!

Let's use this image as an example:

If you look at the URL for this image, you will notice that it looks like this:

blossom.primal.net/c1aa63f983a44185d039092912bfb7f33adcf63ed3cae371ebe6905da5f688d0.jpg

All Blossom URLs follow this format:

[server]/[file-hash].[extension]

The file hash is important because it uniquely identifies the file in question. Apps can use it to verify that the file they received is exactly the file they requested. It also gives us the ability to reliably get the same file from a different server.

Nostr users declare which media server(s) they use by publishing their Blossom settings. If I store my files on Server A, and they get removed, I can simply upload them to Server B, update my public Blossom settings, and all Blossom-capable apps will be able to find them at the new location. All my existing notes will continue to display media content without any issues.

Blossom Mirroring

Let's face it, re-uploading files to another server after they got removed from the original server is not the best user experience. Most people wouldn't have the backups of all the files, and/or the desire to do this work.

This is where Blossom's mirroring feature comes handy. In addition to the primary media server, a Blossom user can set one one or more mirror servers. Under this setup, every time a file is uploaded to the primary server the Nostr app issues a mirror request to the primary server, directing it to copy the file to all the specified mirrors. This way there is always a copy of all content on multiple servers and in case the primary becomes unavailable, Blossom-capable apps will automatically start loading from the mirror.

Mirrors are really easy to setup (you can do it in two clicks in Primal) and this arrangement ensures robust media handling without any central points of failure. Note that you can use professional media hosting services side by side with self-hosted backup servers that anyone can run at home.

Using Blossom Within Primal

Blossom is natively integrated into the entire Primal stack and enabled by default. If you are using Primal 2.2 or later, you don't need to do anything to enable Blossom, all your media uploads are blossoming already.

To enhance user privacy, all Primal apps use the "/media" endpoint per BUD-05, which strips all metadata from uploaded files before they are saved and optionally mirrored to other Blossom servers, per user settings. You can use any Blossom server as your primary media server in Primal, as well as setup any number of mirrors:

## Conclusion

For such a simple protocol, Blossom gives us three major benefits:

1. Verifiable authenticity. All Nostr notes are always signed by the note author. With Blossom, the signed note includes a unique hash for each referenced media file, making it impossible to falsify.
2. File hosting redundancy. Having multiple live copies of referenced media files (via Blossom mirroring) greatly increases the resiliency of media content published on Nostr.
3. Censorship resistance. Blossom enables us to seamlessly switch media hosting providers in case of censorship.

Thanks for reading; and enjoy! 🌸

In the heart of East Africa, where M-Pesa reigns supreme and innovation pulses through bustling markets, a quiet revolution is brewing—one that could redefine how millions interact with money.

Enter Bitika, the Kenyan startup turning bitcoin’s complexity into a three-step dance, merging the lightning speed of sats with the trusted rhythm of mobile money.

At the helm is a founder whose “aha” moment came not in a boardroom, but at his kitchen table, watching his father grapple with the gap between understanding bitcoin and actually using it.

Bitika was born from that friction—a bridge between M-Pesa’s ubiquity and bitcoin’s borderless promise, wrapped in a name as playful as the Swahili slang that inspired it.

But this isn’t just a story about simplifying transactions. It’s about liquidity battles, regulatory tightropes, and a vision to turn Bitika into the invisible rails powering Africa’s Bitcoin future.

Building on Bitcoin

• Tell us a bit about yourself and how you got into bitcoin/fintech, and what keeps you passionate about this space?

I first came across bitcoin in 2020, but like many at that time, I didn’t fully grasp what it really was. It sounded too complicated, probably with the heavy terminologies. Over time, I kept digging deeper and became more curious.

I started digging into finance and how money works and realised this was what I needed to understand bitcoin’s objectives. I realized that bitcoin wasn’t just a new type of money—it was a breakthrough in how we think about freedom, ownership, and global finance.

What keeps me passionate is how bitcoin can empower people—especially in Africa—to take control of their wealth, without relying on unstable systems or middlemen.

• What pivotal moment or experience inspired you to create Bitika? Was there a specific gap in Kenya’s financial ecosystem that sparked the idea?

Yes, this idea was actually born right in my own home. I’ve always been an advocate for bitcoin, sharing it with friends, family, and even strangers. My dad and I had countless conversations about it. Eventually, he understood the concept. But when he asked, “How do I even buy bitcoin?” or “Can you just buy it for me?” and after taking him through binance—that hit me.

If someone I’d educated still found the buying process difficult, how many others were feeling the same way? That was the lightbulb moment. I saw a clear gap: the process of buying bitcoin was too technical for the average Kenyan. That’s the problem Bitika set out to solve.

• How did you identify the synergy between bitcoin and M-Pesa as a solution for accessibility?

M-Pesa is at the center of daily life in Kenya. Everyone uses it—from buying groceries to paying rent. Instead of forcing people to learn new tools, I decided to meet them where they already are. That synergy between M-Pesa and bitcoin felt natural. It’s about bridging what people already trust with something powerful and new.

• Share the story behind the name “Bitika” – does it hold a cultural or symbolic meaning?

Funny enough, Bitika isn’t a deeply planned name. It came while I was thinking about bitcoin and the type of transformation it brings to individuals. In Swahili, we often add “-ka” to words for flair—like “bambika” from “bamba.”

So, I just coined Bitika as a playful and catchy way to reflect something bitcoin-related, but also uniquely local. I stuck with it because thinking of an ideal brand name is the toughest challenge for me.

• Walk us through the user journey – how does buying bitcoin via M-Pesa in “3 simple steps” work under the hood?

It’s beautifully simple.

1. The user enters the amount they want to spend in KES—starting from as little as 50 KES (about $0.30).

2. They input their Lightning wallet address.

3. They enter their M-Pesa number, which triggers an STK push (payment prompt) on their phone. Once confirmed—pap!—they receive bitcoin almost instantly.

Under the hood, we fetch the live BTC price, validate wallet addresses, check available liquidity, process the mobile payment, and send sats via the Lightning Network—all streamlined into a smooth experience for the user.

• Who’s Bitika’s primary audience? Are you focusing on unbanked populations, tech enthusiasts, or both?

Both. Bitika is designed for everyday people—especially the unbanked and underbanked who are excluded from traditional finance. But we also attract bitcoiners who just want a faster, easier way to buy sats. What unites them is the desire for a seamless and low-barrier bitcoin experience.

Community and Overcoming Challenges

• What challenges has Bitika faced navigating Kenya’s bitcoin regulations, and how do you build trust with regulators?

Regulation is still evolving here. Parliament has drafted bills, but none have been passed into law yet. We’re currently in a revision phase where policymakers are trying to strike a balance between encouraging innovation and protecting the public.

We focus on transparency and open dialogue—we believe that building trust with regulators starts with showing how bitcoin can serve the public good.

• What was the toughest obstacle in building Bitika, and how did you overcome it?

Liquidity. Since we don’t have deep capital reserves, we often run into situations where we have to pause operations often to manually restock our bitcoin supply. It’s frustrating—for us and for users. We’re working on automating this process and securing funding to maintain consistent liquidity so users can access bitcoin at any time, without disruption.

This remains our most critical issue—and the primary reason we’re seeking support.

• Are you eyeing new African markets? What’s next for Bitika’s product?

Absolutely. The long-term vision is to expand Bitika into other African countries facing similar financial challenges. But first, we want to turn Bitika into a developer-first tool—infrastructure that others can build on. Imagine local apps, savings products, or financial tools built using Bitika’s simple bitcoin rails. That’s where we’re heading. 

• What would you tell other African entrepreneurs aiming to disrupt traditional finance?

Disrupting finance sounds exciting—but the reality is messy. People fear what they don’t understand. That’s why simplicity is everything. Build tools that hide the complexity, and focus on making the user’s life easier. Most importantly, stay rooted in local context—solve problems people actually face.

What’s Next?

• What’s your message to Kenyans hesitant to try bitcoin, and to enthusiasts watching Bitika?

To my fellow Kenyans: bitcoin isn’t just an investment—it’s a sovereign tool. It’s money you truly own. Start small, learn, and ask questions.

To the bitcoin community: Bitika is proof that bitcoin is working in Africa. Let’s keep pushing. Let’s build tools that matter.

• How can the bitcoin community, both locally and globally, support Bitika’s mission?

We’re currently fundraising on Geyser. Support—whether it’s financial, technical, or simply sharing our story—goes a long way. Every sat you contribute helps us stay live, grow our liquidity, and continue building a tool that brings bitcoin closer to the everyday person in Africa.

I have been recently building NFDB, a new relay DB. This post is meant as a short overview.

Regular relays have challenges

Current relay software have significant challenges, which I have experienced when hosting Nostr.land: - Scalability is only supported by adding full replicas, which does not scale to large relays. - Most relays use slow databases and are not optimized for large scale usage. - Search is near-impossible to implement on standard relays. - Privacy features such as NIP-42 are lacking. - Regular DB maintenance tasks on normal relays require extended downtime. - Fault-tolerance is implemented, if any, using a load balancer, which is limited. - Personalization and advanced filtering is not possible. - Local caching is not supported.

NFDB: A scalable database for large relays

NFDB is a new database meant for medium-large scale relays, built on FoundationDB that provides: - Near-unlimited scalability - Extended fault tolerance - Instant loading - Better search - Better personalization - and more.

Search

NFDB has extended search capabilities including: - Semantic search: Search for meaning, not words. - Interest-based search: Highlight content you care about. - Multi-faceted queries: Easily filter by topic, author group, keywords, and more at the same time. - Wide support for event kinds, including users, articles, etc.

Personalization

NFDB allows significant personalization: - Customized algorithms: Be your own algorithm. - Spam filtering: Filter content to your WoT, and use advanced spam filters. - Topic mutes: Mute topics, not keywords. - Media filtering: With Nostr.build, you will be able to filter NSFW and other content - Low data mode: Block notes that use high amounts of cellular data. - and more

Other

NFDB has support for many other features such as: - NIP-42: Protect your privacy with private drafts and DMs - Microrelays: Easily deploy your own personal microrelay - Containers: Dedicated, fast storage for discoverability events such as relay lists

Calcite: A local microrelay database

Calcite is a lightweight, local version of NFDB that is meant for microrelays and caching, meant for thousands of personal microrelays.

Calcite HA is an additional layer that allows live migration and relay failover in under 30 seconds, providing higher availability compared to current relays with greater simplicity. Calcite HA is enabled in all Calcite deployments.

For zero-downtime, NFDB is recommended.

Noswhere SmartCache

Relays are fixed in one location, but users can be anywhere.

Noswhere SmartCache is a CDN for relays that dynamically caches data on edge servers closest to you, allowing: - Multiple regions around the world - Improved throughput and performance - Faster loading times

routerd

routerd is a custom load-balancer optimized for Nostr relays, integrated with SmartCache.

routerd is specifically integrated with NFDB and Calcite HA to provide fast failover and high performance.

Ending notes

NFDB is planned to be deployed to Nostr.land in the coming weeks.

A lot more is to come. 👀️️️️️️

„Eine wohltemperierte Abrechnung hin zum Frieden“ steht auf dem Cover, und ich dachte gleich: Das ist doch etwas für die „Friedenstaube“. Ist es auch, aber anders als zunächst gedacht. Vielleicht hätte ich mir einen Moment Zeit nehmen sollen für den Haupttitel. Drei Substantive ohne Punkt und Komma. Raffen Sterben Trance. Besser kann man das Leiden an dieser Welt nicht in Worte gießen – vor allem dann nicht, wenn daraus ein Satzstrom wird, der einen Rhythmus von ganz eigener Kraft entwickelt. Man braucht keine Noten, um einen Ohrwurm zu schreiben. Mit Buchstaben geht das auch. Wer das nicht glaubt, lese dieses Buch von Teer Sandmann und lasse sich von seiner Melodie durch die Abgründe dieser Zeit tragen.

Ich habe den Autor im Spätsommer 2020 kennengelernt, bei einem Rubikon-Treffen. Das schreibt sich jetzt so leicht hin, war aber damals fast ein Abenteuer. Schon die Bahnfahrt. Die Blicke, das Zischen, der Hass. Sie da! Wo ist Ihre Maske? Ich hatte überlegt, ob ich mir das antun will, und war auch nicht sicher, ob es wirklich eine gute Idee ist, drei Tage mit lauter Dissidenten auf einem Haufen zu sein. Mehr Zielscheibe geht kaum. Vor Ort war das dann alles wie weggeblasen. Abends ein Lagerfeuer und tagsüber Menschen wie Daniel Sandmann, der sich auf seinen Büchern Teer nennt und weiß, was Glück ist: 

„Der Augenblick, den du mit dem Andern und durch das Andere erlebst, unbelangt von Staat, Norm und Konzern: dieser Augenblick hebt deine Einsamkeit auf. Die aufgehobene Einsamkeit aber ist die Freiheit, die wir als Wärme erleben. Als Feuer im Körper.“ (90)

So war das an jenem Augustwochenende. Jeder, der ein wenig älter ist, hat längst erlebt, dass keine Flamme ewig brennt. Nach Corona kamen die Kriege. Und selbst die, die solche Tage nicht vergessen wollen, verlieren sich im Kleinklein ihrer Eitelkeiten. Daniel und Teer Sandmann machen aus diesem Stoff eine grandiose Sinfonie, die darüber erhaben ist, mit dem Finger auf diesen zu zeigen oder auf jenen. Hin und wieder eine Andeutung: Das muss reichen. Der Formaterfinder, der sein Baby mit einem plumpen Satz schützt. „Nicht einfach kritisieren, mach es besser!“ Eine Redaktion der Gegenöffentlichkeit, hochgelobt, die kurze Sätze will und kurze Texte. Dieses Feld können und wollen die Sandmänner nicht bestellen, genau wie all das, was im Namen einer „Menschheitsfamilie“ daherkommt. „Liebe Community. So begrüßt ein dissidenter Moderator das Publikum in einer dissidenten Talkshow.“ (87) Etwas mehr Platz bekommt [Rainer Mausfeld](https://www.freie-medienakademie.de/medien-plus/101):

„Warum schweigen die Lämmer? Ein tolles Buch. Es hat gegriffen. Dann hat sich gezeigt: Das System, von diesem Buch dekonstruiert, muss einen Zacken zugeben an Totalität und schon schlüpft auch die Analyse mit hinein ins System und ins Schweigen und der Autor wird selbst zum Lamm.“ (21)

Ich kenne das Lied, das Daniel aka Teer Sandmann hier singt. Wie er bin ich von links gekommen und habe erlebt, „wie meine Welt leer wurde“ (23). Wie er weiß ich inzwischen, dass ich in „meinen Kreisen“ von einst nicht mehr klarkommen würde und dass es mit den neuen keinesfalls einfacher ist. Hier, immer noch und trotz alledem, die Idee, dass sich Glück planen lässt, und damit „der Wahn“, „ein Ziel zu erreichen und alles auszumerzen, was dem Ziel in die Quere kommt“ (143): „Die linken Ideen münden in Ordnungen und im Polizeistaat“ (24). Und dort Kritiker der Macht, die vor den Gerichten der gleichen Macht um ein wenig Wohlstand streiten, sich nur noch gegenseitig interviewen, die AfD hoffieren und auf Personen zielen, wo es um Strukturen gehen müsste. Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, Jeff Epstein statt Kapitalismus. Was bleibt euch noch, Kinder, wenn ihr zwar den Totalitarismus erkennt, aber nicht sehen wollt, „wie dieser alternativlos aus dem Kapital hervorschießen musste“ (40)?

Der letzte Satz ist ein Versuch, den Takt aufzunehmen, den dieser Text anschlägt. Teer Sandmann sagt, dass ihn „die Musik aus der Renaissance“ noch mehr gerettet habe als das Schreiben, und baut vielleicht auch deshalb immer wieder Miniaturen ein, die zeigen, dass Kunst auch dann Jahrhunderte überdauern kann, wenn jemand wie ich noch nie davon gehört hat. Daniel Sandmann reicht. Vergesst all eure Gegenentwürfe, singt dieser Künstler:

„Wir sind für nichts. Wir stören die Haltungen und schaffen Nischen. Indem wir stören. Wir sind für alles, was nicht in ein ‚wir sind für‘ mündet. Bloß, ist das alles nicht schon eine Haltung? Und wer sind ‚wir‘?“ (79)

Die Sache mit dem Frieden, natürlich. Es gibt in diesem Buch einen Traum, in dem ein „lieber Gott“ alle Journalisten tötet, „die neuen Schwarzhemden“ (49), „die in diesem medialen Schlachtfeld, Journalismus genannt, mitfeuern und mitgeifern und ihrer Niedertracht freien Lauf lassen“, und mit ihnen auch alle, „die binnen einer Woche auch nur einen Cent noch überweisen an diese Instrumente der Niedertracht und der Geistvernichtung“ sowie Parteimitglieder und Manager, jeden Adelsclan und alle Künstler, „die der Macht zusprechen“ (55). Sie ahnen es schon: Diese Liste ist unvollständig und mit ihrer Wucht eine Ausnahme in dieser „wohltemperierten Abrechnung hin zum Frieden“. Daniel und Teer Sandmann suchen nach Ruhe und Trance. Frieden: Das ist nicht nur das Ende des Kapitalismus oder das vergessene Stück aus der Renaissance. Frieden bringt auch die Runde im Waldsee: 

„Komme ich aus dem Wasser, komme ich nach Hause. Mag sein, dass im Orgasmus der Tod vergessen geht, im Wasser aber verliert er die Bedeutung und vermengt sich mit dem Leben aufs Unkenntliche. Stilles Jauchzen, meerjungfrauartiges Kreisen, kindliches Drehen um sich selbst und ohne Bezugspunkt: das sind die Ausdrucksformen dieses ungeplanten Glücks.“ (157)

Jetzt weiß ich auch, warum ich schon als junger Mann jeden Tag ohne Schwimmgelegenheit für einen verlorenen Tag gehalten habe.

ขุด Bitcoin ด้วยเครื่อง ASIC เช่น Antminer หรือ Whatsminer นั้น "อุณหภูมิ" ถือเป็นหนึ่งในปัจจัยที่สำคัญที่สุดที่มีผลต่อ ประสิทธิภาพ, ความเสถียร, และ อายุการใช้งาน ของเครื่อง หากอุณหภูมิสูงเกินไป อาจทำให้แรงขุดลดลง

ตัวอย่าง Antminer S21 Pro อุณหภูมิ Chip Temp (Tuning Power)

ตัวอย่าง WhatsMiner M30S++ อุณหภูมิ Chip Temp (Tuning Power)

📌 จุดวัดอุณหภูมิที่สำคัญ Chip Temp: อุณหภูมิของชิป ASIC โดยตรง เป็นค่าหลักที่ใช้ประเมินความร้อน

Inlet Temp: อุณหภูมิของอากาศที่เข้าเครื่อง ควรต่ำกว่า 35-38°C

Outlet Temp: อุณหภูมิของลมร้อนที่ออกจากเครื่อง อาจสูงถึง 60–80°C ได้

ตัวอย่าง Antminer S21 Pro (Tuning Power)

แนวทางการจัดการความร้อน

• ทำความสะอาดพัดลม ฮีตซิงค์ และ ซิลิโคนระบายความร้อน 6 เดือน/ครั้ง

• ใช้ระบบ พัดลมดูดลมออก หลักการ Inlet และ Outlet หรือ custom water cooling kit (สายแนว hydro)

• วางเครื่องในที่ที่มีอากาศถ่ายเทดี อุณหภูมิแวดล้อมไม่เกิน 30–35°C หลีกเลี่ยงการวางเครื่องในพื้นที่อับ เช่น ห้องปิด

หากไม่ทำความสะอาดเครื่องขุด Bitcoin เป็นระยะ โดยเฉพาะฝุ่นที่สะสมในพัดลมและฮีตซิงก์ อาจเกิดผลเสียหลายด้าน

• ความร้อนสะสม อุณหภูมิสูงเกินไป ฝุ่นจะอุดตันช่องลม ทำให้อากาศไหลเวียนไม่สะดวกพัดลมระบายความร้อนไม่สามารถพาอากาศร้อนออกได้อย่างมีประสิทธิภาพส่งผลให้ อุณหภูมิของชิป (Chip Temp) พุ่งสูงขึ้นเรื่อย ๆ

• เครื่องทำงานช้าลง เมื่ออุณหภูมิเกิน 80–85°C ระบบจะ ลด Hashrate อัตโนมัติ เพื่อป้องกันความเสียหาย กำลังขุดลดลง รายได้จากการขุดก็ลดลงด้วย

• เสี่ยงต่อการเสียหายของฮาร์ดแวร์ หากปล่อยให้ความร้อนสะสมจนเกิน 90°C บอร์ดอาจไหม้ ชิป ASIC เสียหายถาวร พัดลมทำงานหนักเกินไป จนมอเตอร์พัง

• อายุการใช้งานเครื่องสั้นลง เครื่องที่ร้อนจัดและสะสมฝุ่นจะเสื่อมเร็วกว่าเครื่องที่ได้รับการดูแล อาจใช้ได้ไม่ถึงปี

• ค่าซ่อม/เปลี่ยนอุปกรณ์สูง หากต้องเปลี่ยนบอร์ด ASIC หรือ พัดลม จะมีค่าใช้จ่ายหลักพันถึงหลักหมื่นบาทต่อเครื่อง ในบางกรณี อาจต้องเปลี่ยนทั้งเครื่องหากเสียหายหนัก

Wem in seinem Leben Schmerz zugefügt wurde, wer sich ungerecht behandelt fühlt oder wachen Auges in der Welt umschaut, kommt wahrscheinlich irgendwann mit der Frage in Berührung, wie das alles noch einmal «gut» werden kann. Wie kann die Welt sich mit sich selbst versöhnen? Und wie kann ich es selbst schaffen, mich mit ihr und den Menschen, die schlimme Taten vollbringen, wieder in harmonischer Akzeptanz zu verbinden? Kann und will ich gewisse Gräueltaten verzeihen oder gibt es das «Unverzeihliche»? Und selbst wenn ich wollte, wie könnte mir das gelingen?

Perspektivwechsel

Wenn wir an dem Zorn über begangenes Unrecht festhalten, schauen wir in der Regel aus immer derselben Perspektive auf das Geschehen. Mal um Mal erzürnen und empören wir uns darüber, erzählen uns und anderen stets die gleiche Geschichte, die uns allerdings – ebenfalls ein ums andere Mal – wieder selbst verletzt. Das Destruktive holt uns so ständig wieder ein; wir sehen und fühlen das unschuldige Kind und empfinden Verachtung für die Täter.

Die Perspektive zu wechseln lädt uns dazu ein, das Geschehen aus anderen Blickwinkeln zu betrachten und unser Bewusstsein von der schmerzlichen Wiederholung zu lösen. Wir können einmal weit rauszoomen und einen spirituellen Blickwinkel einnehmen, beispielsweise aus Sicht des All-ein-Bewusstseins, das sich in unzählige Seelen teilt, von denen wiederum Milliarden derzeit auf der Erde inkarniert sind. Dieses eine Bewusstsein möchte jede auch nur mögliche Erfahrung machen und durch die Trennung – die Erschaffung der Dualität – kann es sich selbst aus diesen Milliarden Persönlichkeiten heraus erfahren, um zu lernen. Während dieser scheinbaren Trennung vergessen wir, dass wir alle eins sind, dass wir alle aus demselben «Stoff» gemacht sind und nach diesem Spiel hier auf Erden unsere Erinnerung zurückerlangen und unsere Erfahrungen zurück geben in die eine «Quelle».

Unser aller Reise geht letztlich darum, hier auf der Erde aus diesem Zustand des Vergessens zu erwachen. Um dies zu erreichen und all diese Erfahrungen machen zu können und uns auch unter widrigsten Umständen an unsere wahre Essenz, an die Liebe, erinnern können, braucht es auch Akteure, die die Dunkelheit verkörpern – denn nur so haben wir die Wahl, ob wir uns von ihr einnehmen lassen oder uns für die Liebe und das Mitgefühl entscheiden. Der Täter sowie das Opfer sind dabei stets Aspekte unserer selbst – im Innen wie im Außen – und jeder einzelne verändert die Welt, indem er Liebe und Mitgefühl oder Hass und Verachtung wählt.

Eine etwas rationalere Herangehensweise wäre, zu schauen, was dazu führt, dass ein Mensch sich derart unmenschlich verhalten kann; also der Zugang über die Psychologie. Hier werden wir uns bewusst, dass jeder Täter auch einmal ein Kind war. Symbolisch sogar das Kind, mit dem wir jetzt im Beispiel mitfühlen und das wir gleichzeitig heute als erwachsenen Täter verachten. Natürlich kann man hier einwenden, dass nicht jedes Opfer zum Täter wird, aber man kann ebenso anerkennen, dass uns bei dieser Haltung das größte Stück fehlt; und zwar die Geschichte desjenigen, die Jahre dazwischen, sowie jeder einzelne Reiz und jedes Detail der Umstände.

Wie viel Schmerz und Leid muss ein Mensch erfahren, bis er unmenschlich wird? Mit Einbezug aller Umstände und Faktoren, der psychischen Schutzmechanismen traumatischer Erfahrungen sowie fehlender Ausbildung sozialer und empathischer Fähigkeiten auch im neuronalen Bereich kann man auch auf diesem Wege Verständnis erlangen. Sichtbar wird hierdurch auch, dass emotionaler Schmerz über Generationen weitergegeben wird und es schwer ersichtlich ist, wo denn die eigentliche Ursache liegt. Auch hier wird erkennbar, dass nur jeder bei sich anfangen kann und Verantwortung für seine Heilung – und damit gleichzeitig die anderer – übernehmen müsste, anstatt auf die Suche nach dem oder der «Schuldigen» zu gehen.

Was bedarf eigentlich der Vergebung?

Wenn es uns schwerfällt zu vergeben, also Groll und Verachtung loszulassen und Mitgefühl zu empfinden, ist es ebenfalls hilfreich, einmal hinzuschauen, worum es genau geht. Wenn es uns selbst betrifft, handelt es sich in der Regel um Schmerz, der uns willentlich, manchmal auch unbewusst, zugefügt wurde und den wir (noch) nicht loslassen können, weil er noch nicht verheilt ist. Darauf gehe ich später noch einmal ein. Oft geht es aber auch um uns unbekannte Menschen, von deren Verbrechen wir Kenntnis haben und deren Ungeheuerlichkeit uns aus der Fassung bringt. Es geht um Taten, die wir nicht nachvollziehen können, weder rational noch emotional. Wir meinen, selbst wenn jemand nicht spürte, was er anderen antut, so müsse er es doch wenigstens besser wissen. Das ist das, was uns Menschen ausmacht, mit anderen mitzufühlen und sie zu verstehen. Doch anscheinend gibt es Menschen, deren Persönlichkeit oder auch Psyche dazu absolut nicht in der Lage sind. Die keinen moralischen Kompass besitzen und keinerlei soziales Empfinden, denn sonst könnten sie bestimmte Taten nicht ausführen. Möglicherweise dissoziieren sie sich selbst so stark, dass diese für sie eine Normalität darstellen, sie diese entschuldigen beziehungsweise vor sich selbst rechtfertigen oder im extremen Fall keine Erinnerung mehr daran haben.

Uns erscheinen die fehlende Empathie sowie das fehlende Verständnis so fremd, dass wir es nicht nachvollziehen können. Uns fehlt die Nachvollziehbarkeit der Nichtnachvollziehbarkeit des Erlebens des anderen, und wir erachten diesen dadurch als unmenschlich. Denn menschlich wären doch eben diese Fähigkeiten wie Mitgefühl, Güte, Reflexion, Warmherzigkeit, Verständnis und Liebe. Zugleich erzeugen wir hier aber einen Konflikt, wenn wir sagen: «Da diese Menschen sich so unmenschlich verhalten, soll ihnen kein Mitgefühl und keine Vergebung entgegengebracht werden, sollen auch sie nicht menschlich behandelt werden», wodurch wir uns allerdings selbst unserer Menschlichkeit berauben.

«Aber der Täter hatte doch die freie Wahl, er hätte doch anders entscheiden können!» Ja, möglicherweise schon, aber jetzt haben wir die Wahl. Und wir haben viel leichtere Voraussetzungen dafür, menschlich zu handeln, weil wir gesunden Zugang zu unserer Empathie, Moral und unserer Ratio haben.

Hätte der Täter es geschafft, seinen Tätern zu verzeihen, würde er die Destruktivität, die er ab einem gewissen Zeitpunkt nicht mehr in sich tragen oder verdrängen konnte, nicht an anderen ausagieren. Es ist ihm nicht gelungen, vielleicht sogar weil etwas in ihm es für unmöglich hielt, Unmenschliches, das ihm zugefügt wurde, zu verzeihen. Aber uns kann es gelingen, diesen Kreislauf zu durchbrechen und uns nicht in ihn hineinziehen zu lassen; wir können dem «Dunklen» den Nährboden entziehen.

Manchmal nehmen wir an, würden wir das Unbeschreibliche verzeihen, bedeutete dies, dass wir es tolerieren oder gar gutheißen. Dem ist nicht so. Analog dazu habe ich manches Mal die Angst gehabt, würde ich aufhören, um meinen Freund zu trauern, bedeute dies, dass ich ihn nicht mehr vermisse. Auch das ist nicht richtig. Ich heile lediglich das, was mir Schmerzen zufügt, bis am Ende nur noch die Liebe bleibt. Und wenn wir verzeihen, ist es kein Gutheißen der Taten, es bedeutet ein Loslassen dessen, was uns damit verstrickt und das Destruktive nährt.

Mitgefühl beginnt bei uns selbst

«Daß ich dem Hungrigen zu essen gebe, dem vergebe, der mich beleidigt, und meinen Feind liebe- das sind große Tugenden. Was aber, wenn ich nun entdecken sollte, daß der armselige Bettler und der unverschämteste Beleidiger alle in mir selber sind und ich bedürftig bin, Empfänger meiner eigenen Wohltaten zu sein? Daß ich der Feind bin, den ich lieben muß - was dann?» – C. G. Jung

Mit diesem Zitat beginnt Dan Millman das Kapitel «Das Gesetz des Mitgefühls» in seinem Buch «Die universellen Lebensgesetze des friedvollen Kriegers». Die weise Frau lehrt dem Wanderer das Gesetz des Mitgefühls und erklärt, es sei «eine liebevolle Aufforderung, über unsere begrenzte Sichtweise hinauszuwachsen», auch wenn die Last dieser Aufgabe zuweilen sehr schwer wiegen könne. Genau deshalb müsse man daran denken, dass sie bei uns selbst beginnt und wir «geduldig» und «sanft» mit uns, unseren Gefühlen und Gedanken sein sollten.

Um dem – noch skeptischen – Wanderer zu veranschaulichen, wie wir Mitgefühl auch mit unseren Gegnern empfinden können, bat sie ihn, sich an eine Auseinandersetzung zu erinnern, in der er zornig, neidisch oder eifersüchtig war und sich diese Gefühle noch einmal zu vergegenwärtigen. Als er das tat, den Schmerz und die Wut wieder spürte, sagte sie zu ihm: «Und nun stell dir vor, daß der Mensch, mit dem du dich streitest, mitten in eurer erregten Auseinandersetzung plötzlich nach seinem Herzen faßt, einen Schrei ausstößt und zu deinen Füßen tot zu Boden sinkt.» Der Wanderer erschrak und auf Nachfrage der weisen Frau stellte er fest, dass er nun keinerlei Schmerz oder Wut mehr empfand. Sogleich aber kam ihm der Gedanke: «Aber – aber was wäre, wenn ich mich über den Tod dieses Menschen freuen würde? Wenn ich ihm nicht verzeihen könnte?», worauf die weise Frau antwortete: «Dann verzeih dir wenigstens selber deine Unversöhnlichkeit. Und in dieser Vergebung wirst du das Mitgefühl finden, das deinen Schmerz heilt, als Mensch in dieser Welt zu leben.»

Weiter erinnert uns die weise Frau daran, dass wir alle, während wir hier auf der Erde sind, Träume, Hoffnungen und Enttäuschungen haben; und dass diese, sowie letztlich der Tod, uns alle verbinden.

Es ist ein Prozess

Dan Millman sagt hier in Gestalt der Weisen Frau, dass Mitgefühl bei uns selbst beginnt und diesen Aspekt möchte ich noch einmal hervorheben. Es kann nämlich passieren, dass wir uns in einer oberflächlichen Vergebung wieder finden, weil wir meinen, es sei richtig und moralisch, anderen zu verzeihen, ohne aber die tieferen Schichten dabei zu fühlen. Das ist dann leider nichts anderes, als Verdrängung. Gerade wenn wir selbst Opfer von Ungerechtigkeit, physischer oder mentaler Gewalt wurden, ist es unerlässlich den Heilungsweg in Gänze zu durchschreiten, und in den Wachstumsprozess zu verwandeln, der uns Mitgefühl und Weisheit lehrt. Und dazu gehören die Wut auf das Begangene, die Verzweiflung, die Ungerechtigkeit und Ohnmacht zu fühlen, uns auf «unsere Seite» zu stellen und Partei für uns selbst zu ergreifen, bevor es ernstlich möglich wird, zu verzeihen. Zunächst fühlen wir mit uns selbst den Schmerz und befreien die Gefühle, die wir uns möglicherweise nie trauten zu fühlen, all die Wut und den Groll. Erst später kann dann aus dem Inneren heraus das weitere Erkennen stattfinden und Heilung und Vergebung geschehen.

Vergebung findet im Herzen statt

Die hier in diesem Text von mir aufgeführten Perspektiven sind nur zwei, drei kleine Beispiele für Sichtweisen, die man einnehmen könnte, um zu neuen Einsichten zu gelangen. Sie sollen niemanden von irgendetwas überzeugen, sondern als Anregung dienen. Denn letztlich geht es darum, Vergebung in sich selbst zu finden. Vergebung ist also etwas, das aus dem Inneren heraus entsteht; ein Ergebnis eines tiefen Verständnisses und Fühlens, ja eines Erkennens. Auf dieser Reise gehen wir unterschiedliche Blickwinkel und Versionen ab, bis wir im Herzen ankommen, es sich öffnet und wir plötzlich «klar» sehen. Daraufhin breitet sich Wärme im Körper aus, Liebe durchströmt uns, begleitet möglicherweise von einem Gefühl leiser Euphorie, möglicherweise auch einem leichten Schmerz und Tränen – sowohl ein paar der Traurigkeit als auch welchen der Dankbarkeit. Das Loslassen und die Befreiung sind spürbar und nur für jeden persönlich erfahrbar, der sich auf diesen Weg begibt und seine individuelle Ansicht findet, die ihn befreit und erlöst.

Meiner Meinung nach bedeutet also Vergebung eine Öffnung des Herzens, ein Erkennen und ein Hineinwachsen in die Perspektive der Liebe. Sie ist nicht auf rationaler Ebene zu finden; die rationale Ebene kann nur dabei helfen, den Weg zum Mitgefühl zu beschreiten, denn:

«Man sieht nur mit dem Herzen gut. Das Wesentliche ist für die Augen unsichtbar.»

– Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

O Contexto Legal Brasileiro e o Consentimento

No ordenamento jurídico brasileiro, o consentimento do ofendido pode, em certas circunstâncias, afastar a ilicitude de um ato que, sem ele, configuraria crime (como lesão corporal leve, prevista no Art. 129 do Código Penal). Contudo, o consentimento tem limites claros: não é válido para bens jurídicos indisponíveis, como a vida, e sua eficácia é questionável em casos de lesões corporais graves ou gravíssimas.

A prática de BDSM consensual situa-se em uma zona complexa. Em tese, se ambos os parceiros são adultos, capazes, e consentiram livre e informadamente nos atos praticados, sem que resultem em lesões graves permanentes ou risco de morte não consentido, não haveria crime. O desafio reside na comprovação desse consentimento, especialmente se uma das partes, posteriormente, o negar ou alegar coação.

A Lei Maria da Penha (Lei nº 11.340/2006)

A Lei Maria da Penha é um marco fundamental na proteção da mulher contra a violência doméstica e familiar. Ela estabelece mecanismos para coibir e prevenir tal violência, definindo suas formas (física, psicológica, sexual, patrimonial e moral) e prevendo medidas protetivas de urgência.

Embora essencial, a aplicação da lei em contextos de BDSM pode ser delicada. Uma alegação de violência por parte da mulher, mesmo que as lesões ou situações decorram de práticas consensuais, tende a receber atenção prioritária das autoridades, dada a presunção de vulnerabilidade estabelecida pela lei. Isso pode criar um cenário onde o parceiro masculino enfrenta dificuldades significativas em demonstrar a natureza consensual dos atos, especialmente se não houver provas robustas pré-constituídas.

Outros riscos:

Lesão corporal grave ou gravíssima (art. 129, §§ 1º e 2º, CP), não pode ser justificada pelo consentimento, podendo ensejar persecução penal.

Crimes contra a dignidade sexual (arts. 213 e seguintes do CP) são de ação pública incondicionada e independem de representação da vítima para a investigação e denúncia.

Riscos de Falsas Acusações e Alegação de Coação Futura

Os riscos para os praticantes de BDSM, especialmente para o parceiro que assume o papel dominante ou que inflige dor/restrição (frequentemente, mas não exclusivamente, o homem), podem surgir de diversas frentes:

1. Acusações Externas: Vizinhos, familiares ou amigos que desconhecem a natureza consensual do relacionamento podem interpretar sons, marcas ou comportamentos como sinais de abuso e denunciar às autoridades.
2. Alegações Futuras da Parceira: Em caso de término conturbado, vingança, arrependimento ou mudança de perspectiva, a parceira pode reinterpretar as práticas passadas como abuso e buscar reparação ou retaliação através de uma denúncia. A alegação pode ser de que o consentimento nunca existiu ou foi viciado.
3. Alegação de Coação: Uma das formas mais complexas de refutar é a alegação de que o consentimento foi obtido mediante coação (física, moral, psicológica ou econômica). A parceira pode alegar, por exemplo, que se sentia pressionada, intimidada ou dependente, e que seu "sim" não era genuíno. Provar a ausência de coação a posteriori é extremamente difícil.
4. Ingenuidade e Vulnerabilidade Masculina: Muitos homens, confiando na dinâmica consensual e na parceira, podem negligenciar a necessidade de precauções. A crença de que "isso nunca aconteceria comigo" ou a falta de conhecimento sobre as implicações legais e o peso processual de uma acusação no âmbito da Lei Maria da Penha podem deixá-los vulneráveis. A presença de marcas físicas, mesmo que consentidas, pode ser usada como evidência de agressão, invertendo o ônus da prova na prática, ainda que não na teoria jurídica.

Estratégias de Prevenção e Mitigação

Não existe um método infalível para evitar completamente o risco de uma falsa acusação, mas diversas medidas podem ser adotadas para construir um histórico de consentimento e reduzir vulnerabilidades:

1. Comunicação Explícita e Contínua: A base de qualquer prática BDSM segura é a comunicação constante. Negociar limites, desejos, palavras de segurança ("safewords") e expectativas antes, durante e depois das cenas é crucial. Manter registros dessas negociações (e-mails, mensagens, diários compartilhados) pode ser útil.

2. Documentação do Consentimento:

   • Contratos de Relacionamento/Cena: Embora a validade jurídica de "contratos BDSM" seja discutível no Brasil (não podem afastar normas de ordem pública), eles servem como forte evidência da intenção das partes, da negociação detalhada de limites e do consentimento informado. Devem ser claros, datados, assinados e, idealmente, reconhecidos em cartório (para prova de data e autenticidade das assinaturas).

   • Registros Audiovisuais: Gravar (com consentimento explícito para a gravação) discussões sobre consentimento e limites antes das cenas pode ser uma prova poderosa. Gravar as próprias cenas é mais complexo devido a questões de privacidade e potencial uso indevido, mas pode ser considerado em casos específicos, sempre com consentimento mútuo documentado para a gravação.

     Importante: a gravação deve ser com ciência da outra parte, para não configurar violação da intimidade (art. 5º, X, da Constituição Federal e art. 20 do Código Civil).

3. Testemunhas: Em alguns contextos de comunidade BDSM, a presença de terceiros de confiança durante negociações ou mesmo cenas pode servir como testemunho, embora isso possa alterar a dinâmica íntima do casal.

4. Estabelecimento Claro de Limites e Palavras de Segurança: Definir e respeitar rigorosamente os limites (o que é permitido, o que é proibido) e as palavras de segurança é fundamental. O desrespeito a uma palavra de segurança encerra o consentimento para aquele ato.
5. Avaliação Contínua do Consentimento: O consentimento não é um cheque em branco; ele deve ser entusiástico, contínuo e revogável a qualquer momento. Verificar o bem-estar do parceiro durante a cena ("check-ins") é essencial.
6. Discrição e Cuidado com Evidências Físicas: Ser discreto sobre a natureza do relacionamento pode evitar mal-entendidos externos. Após cenas que deixem marcas, é prudente que ambos os parceiros estejam cientes e de acordo, talvez documentando por fotos (com data) e uma nota sobre a consensualidade da prática que as gerou.
7. Aconselhamento Jurídico Preventivo: Consultar um advogado especializado em direito de família e criminal, com sensibilidade para dinâmicas de relacionamento alternativas, pode fornecer orientação personalizada sobre as melhores formas de documentar o consentimento e entender os riscos legais específicos.

Observações Importantes

• Nenhuma documentação substitui a necessidade de consentimento real, livre, informado e contínuo.
• A lei brasileira protege a "integridade física" e a "dignidade humana". Práticas que resultem em lesões graves ou que violem a dignidade de forma não consentida (ou com consentimento viciado) serão ilegais, independentemente de qualquer acordo prévio.
• Em caso de acusação, a existência de documentação robusta de consentimento não garante a absolvição, mas fortalece significativamente a defesa, ajudando a demonstrar a natureza consensual da relação e das práticas.

• A alegação de coação futura é particularmente difícil de prevenir apenas com documentos. Um histórico consistente de comunicação aberta (whatsapp/telegram/e-mails), respeito mútuo e ausência de dependência ou controle excessivo na relação pode ajudar a contextualizar a dinâmica como não coercitiva.

• Cuidado com Marcas Visíveis e Lesões Graves Práticas que resultam em hematomas severos ou lesões podem ser interpretadas como agressão, mesmo que consentidas. Evitar excessos protege não apenas a integridade física, mas também evita questionamentos legais futuros.

O que vem a ser consentimento viciado

No Direito, consentimento viciado é quando a pessoa concorda com algo, mas a vontade dela não é livre ou plena — ou seja, o consentimento existe formalmente, mas é defeituoso por alguma razão.

O Código Civil brasileiro (art. 138 a 165) define várias formas de vício de consentimento. As principais são:

Erro: A pessoa se engana sobre o que está consentindo. (Ex.: A pessoa acredita que vai participar de um jogo leve, mas na verdade é exposta a práticas pesadas.)

Dolo: A pessoa é enganada propositalmente para aceitar algo. (Ex.: Alguém mente sobre o que vai acontecer durante a prática.)

Coação: A pessoa é forçada ou ameaçada a consentir. (Ex.: "Se você não aceitar, eu termino com você" — pressão emocional forte pode ser vista como coação.)

Estado de perigo ou lesão: A pessoa aceita algo em situação de necessidade extrema ou abuso de sua vulnerabilidade. (Ex.: Alguém em situação emocional muito fragilizada é induzida a aceitar práticas que normalmente recusaria.)

No contexto de BDSM, isso é ainda mais delicado: Mesmo que a pessoa tenha "assinado" um contrato ou dito "sim", se depois ela alegar que seu consentimento foi dado sob medo, engano ou pressão psicológica, o consentimento pode ser considerado viciado — e, portanto, juridicamente inválido.

Isso tem duas implicações sérias:

1. O crime não se descaracteriza: Se houver vício, o consentimento é ignorado e a prática pode ser tratada como crime normal (lesão corporal, estupro, tortura, etc.).

2. A prova do consentimento precisa ser sólida: Mostrando que a pessoa estava informada, lúcida, livre e sem qualquer tipo de coação.

   Consentimento viciado é quando a pessoa concorda formalmente, mas de maneira enganada, forçada ou pressionada, tornando o consentimento inútil para efeitos jurídicos.

Conclusão

Casais que praticam BDSM consensual no Brasil navegam em um terreno que exige não apenas confiança mútua e comunicação excepcional, mas também uma consciência aguçada das complexidades legais e dos riscos de interpretações equivocadas ou acusações mal-intencionadas. Embora o BDSM seja uma expressão legítima da sexualidade humana, sua prática no Brasil exige responsabilidade redobrada. Ter provas claras de consentimento, manter a comunicação aberta e agir com prudência são formas eficazes de se proteger de falsas alegações e preservar a liberdade e a segurança de todos os envolvidos. Embora leis controversas como a Maria da Penha sejam "vitais" para a proteção contra a violência real, os praticantes de BDSM, e em particular os homens nesse contexto, devem adotar uma postura proativa e prudente para mitigar os riscos inerentes à potencial má interpretação ou instrumentalização dessas práticas e leis, garantindo que a expressão de sua consensualidade esteja resguardada na medida do possível.

---

Importante: No Brasil, mesmo com tudo isso, o Ministério Público pode denunciar por crime como lesão corporal grave, estupro ou tortura, independente de consentimento. Então a prudência nas práticas é fundamental.

Deutschland ist eines der wenigen Länder mit einer gesetzlich verankerten ausnahmslosen Schulbesuchspflicht. Mit den Schulschließungen in der Corona-Zeit wurde das Gesetz jedoch faktisch plötzlich außer Kraft gesetzt. Alle mussten zu Hause lernen. Als die Schulen danach wieder offen waren, wurden die Kinder mit Maskenpflicht, Tests und Impfdruck gequält. Nicht selten traten bei den Schülern Krankheiten und psychische Störungen auf. Nicht wenige Eltern suchten im Gespräch mit dem Lehrerkollegium nach Lösungen für ihre Kinder. In den meisten Fällen war das nicht möglich. Die Lehrer waren auf die neue Ideologie und die Durchsetzung der Maßnahmen eingeschworen und hatten Angst. Einige Eltern haben ihre Kinder dann in eigener Verantwortung aus der Schule genommen und zu Hause selbst unterrichtet. An manchen Orten fanden sich Gemeinschaften, wo die Kinder in Gruppen lernten. Während viele Lerngemeinschaften nicht mehr existieren, hat die Familie von Katharina den Unterricht für ihre drei Kinder in Eigenregie etabliert. Inzwischen haben sie dafür sogar „den Segen“ von Familiengericht und Jugendamt.

Katharina und Johannes leben mit ihren drei Wunschkindern Aurelius (15), Benjamin (14) und Friedrich (10) in einem Vorort von Leipzig. Die Familie wohnte früher in der Stadt. In der Corona-Zeit haben sie sich mit dem Physiotherapie- & Seminarzentrum Curasanus eine Existenz auf dem Land aufgebaut und begehen diesen Sommer ihr 20-jähriges Praxis-Jubiläum. Katharina hat ihre Arbeit als Physiotherapeutin weitgehend aufgegeben, um sich als Mama und Lernbegleiterin ihren Kindern widmen zu können. Daneben bietet sie Vorträge und Workshops an, übernimmt einen großen Teil der Praxis-Organisation und ist Manager, Rezeptionistin und Vertriebler der eigenen Firma. Wir besuchten einen ihrer Lachyoga-Kurse. Dabei erlebten wir ihr Zusammenspiel mit den drei Kindern. Anschließend stellten wir Katharina unsere Fragen zum Freilernen.

Im unmittelbaren Umfeld wird die Familie bestaunt und geachtet. Sie haben sich bewusst für das Freilernen entschieden. Die Kinder wurden ohne Test nicht mehr in die Schule gelassen. Auch andere Zwangsmaßnahmen wie die Maske wollten die Eltern den Kindern ersparen. Besonders Benjamin hatte traumatische Erlebnisse. Seine Lehrerin schmiss mit dem Schlüssel nach den Schülern und wandte andere schwarze Pädagogik an. Er ging ständig mit Bauchschmerzen ins Bett. Ein weiterer Punkt ist die Masernimpfung. Die Kinder könnten zwar zur Schule gehen, aber die Eltern werden mit rechtlichen Maßnahmen und Zwangszahlungen belegt. Da Katharina in ihrer Praxis viele Erkrankungen als Folge der Masernimpfung beobachten konnte, lehnt sie die Pflichtimpfung ab. Die Eltern haben kein Vertrauen mehr in die staatliche Schulerziehung mit all dem Zwang und den Erpressungen. Als die Familie den Entschluss gefasst hatte, die Kinder nicht mehr in die Schule zu schicken, haben sie ihre Praxis vorübergehend geschlossen, ihr Haus verkauft und sind auf Reisen gegangen. Die beiden großen Kinder wurden von der Schule abgemeldet. Nach der Rückkehr haben sie dann mit einem neuen Leben auf dem Land begonnen.

Lernen ohne Schule: Wie geht das?

„Wissen ist Macht und eine Holschuld“, sagt uns Katharina. Das ist ihr Motto und motiviert auch die Kinder. Mit dem Unterricht zu Hause macht die Familie ihre eigene Studie und zeigt, dass Lernen auch anders geht als in der Schule. Die Eltern können viel besser auf jedes einzelne Kind eingehen. Johannes arbeitete früher als Straßenbauer. Er unterstützt die Jungs vor allem in Mathematik, Geometrie und Physik sowie bei handwerklichen Fertigkeiten. Katharinas Stärken liegen in Deutsch, Sprachen und Organisation. Unter den Patienten ihrer Praxis gibt es Lehrer, die ihnen helfen. Weitere Unterstützung kommt von Freunden und Bekannten. Bei bestimmten Projekten treffen sie auf andere Freilernerkinder. „Das Netzwerk wird immer größer, es wird immer schöner und interessanter“, sagt Katharina. Man geht mit vielen anderen einen gemeinsamen Weg, verlässt dabei eingetretene Pfade und erkundet neue Themenfelder wie Mediengestaltung, freie Energie, Elektrotherapie, meditatives und Improvisations-Zeichnen. „Ich sprudele vor Ideen. Sie kommen in mein Feld, und dann mache ich was draus“, sagt Katharina. Die Jungs sind in Wurzen im Ringelnatz-Literaturkreis. Dort schreiben sie Drehbuchgeschichten und haben einen Film produziert. Sie suchen sich Projekte oder kreieren neue, wie mit dem Planetarium Eilenburg. Diese Zusammenarbeit hat sich sehr gut entwickelt. Dort lernen 4- bis 15-Jährige zusammen. Die drei Jungs spielen Klavier. Erdkunde und Geschichte erleben die Kinder auch dadurch, dass die Familie Hauptstädte oder die bosnischen Pyramiden selbst erkundet. Dabei erweist es sich als Vorteil, nicht auf die Ferienzeiten angewiesen zu sein.

Als Physiotherapeutin ist Katharina bewusst, dass man neue Lernstrategien entwickeln muss. Die Kinder lernen unterschiedlich. Jedes Kind hat seinen eigenen Charakter. Aurelius benötigt eher eine 1:1-Betreuung. Darauf kann Katharina viel individueller eingehen als die staatliche Schule. Es ist aber auch aufwendiger und anstrengender. Besonderen Wert legt sie darauf, dass rechte und linke Gehirnhälfte gleichmäßig beansprucht werden. Lernphasen werden immer wieder mit Entspannungs- oder Bewegungsphasen kombiniert. Sie weiß, dass den Kindern zuerst die Grundlagen des Lesens, Rechnens und Schreibens vermittelt werden müssen. Dann sind sie in der Lage, sich alles Weitere selbst anzueignen – Unterstützung vorausgesetzt. „Besonders das Schreiben mit der eigenen Hand ist wichtig für die Vernetzung der beiden Gehirnhälften“, sagt Katharina. Dafür nehmen sich die Eltern Zeit. Die Kinder führen Tagebuch. Außerdem halten es die Eltern für wichtig, den Kindern Werte und Tugenden wie Dankbarkeit, Verlässlichkeit, Beharrlichkeit, Aufrichtigkeit, Ehrlichkeit und die zehn Gebote zu vermitteln. Katharina und Johannes sind beide religiös begleitet aufgewachsen. Heute sehen sie die Kirche als Institution kritisch. Angebunden an die Schöpfung und im Gottvertrauen erschaffen und schöpfen sie Leben und Lebensraum aus eigener Kraft – so erklärt es uns Katharina.

Ein weiteres Thema sind die Funktionen des Körpers und wie sich die Kinder gesund erhalten können. Vieles lernen sie dabei in der Physiotherapiepraxis. Die Familie hat das Privileg, in ihrem eigenen Biorhythmus leben zu können. „Das macht sehr viel aus – wir sind alle gesund“, sagt Katharina. Der Lern- und Arbeitstag beginnt nicht vor 9 Uhr und hat eine eigene Struktur. Im Tagesablauf sind feste Verantwortlichkeiten integriert. So wechseln sich die Kinder aller drei Tage mit Tischdecken, Staubsaugen und Geschirrspüler ab. Das hilft ihnen, sich selbst zu organisieren. Das geht nicht immer reibungslos vonstatten. Wenn das Lernpensum beizeiten abgearbeitet wurde, helfen die Kinder im Haushalt oder Garten oder gehen ihrem Bewegungsdrang auf andere Weise nach. Die Eltern sind am Abend noch länger aktiv, denn die Praxis erfordert noch die eine oder andere bürokratische Pflicht. Die Familie ist sehr naturverbunden. Sie gehen viel in den Wald und in den Garten. Sie bauen selbst Gemüse und Obst an. Dabei können die Kinder zum Beispiel Erfahrungen mit Permakultur und natürlicher Düngung sammeln. Die Familie achtet auf die Ernährung, schließlich ist Katharina seit fast 25 Jahren Ernährungsberaterin. Was sie nicht selbst anbauen, wird beim Bauern des Vertrauens eingekauft. Die Jungs können selbst kochen und backen. Die Schädlichkeit von Zucker ist den Kindern schon bewusst geworden, ohne gänzlich auf Schokolade verzichten zu müssen. Medikamente gibt es im Haushalt nicht. Sie kennen sich sehr gut mit den Heilmitteln aus der Natur aus und können so ihre Selbstheilungskräfte aktivieren. Sie haben keinen Hausarzt. Natürlich hat keines der Kinder ein Handy. Bisher haben sie noch kein Verlangen danach. Die Eltern halten es für wichtig, dass die Kinder erst sicher bei Selbstorganisation und Tagesstruktur sind, bevor sie ein Handy bekommen. Katharina weist darauf hin, dass beispielsweise WhatsApp erst ab 16 Jahren zugelassen ist, und fragt sich, ob das andere Eltern wissen.

Gesetze auf Augenhöhe auslegen

Den Behörden blieben die Freilerner nicht verborgen. Sie wurden aktiv und schalteten das Familiengericht ein. Die Familie hatte keinen Anwalt und keine Rechtsschutzversicherung. Katharina erzählt uns, dass sie schließlich auf „Hilfe von oben“ gehofft habe. Irgendwer hat sie anscheinend erhört, denn sie bekamen „einen Engel“ als Verfahrensbeistand. Die Behörden waren sehr zugänglich. In den Gesprächen gab man zu, mit der Schulsituation ebenfalls nicht zufrieden zu sein. „Wir wollen so wie ihr, dass sich etwas verändert. Wir sind an Eurer Seite.“ Die Gespräche mit dem Jugendamt und der Richterin vom Familiengericht Grimma waren immer auf Augenhöhe. Schließlich legte man der Familie keine Steine in den Weg. Damit kann Katharina ihr Konzept nach außen leben und andere inspirieren. Ihre Schlussfolgerung: Eltern müssen sich ihrer Stärken bewusst werden und aus ihrer Angst herauskommen. Das Konzept muss aber zur Familie passen, denn jede Familie ist anders.

Die Basis für freies Lernen ist das Vertrauen der Eltern in ihre Kinder. Denn Kinder sind von Natur aus wissbegierig und wollen lernen. Katharina hat viel von Bertrand Stern und von Riccardo Leppe gelernt. Beiden wurde von ihren Eltern das Lernen ohne Schulbesuch ermöglicht. Mit Bertrand Stern hat Katharina Kontakt. Er wird im November am Buß- und Bettag eine kleine Fortbildung im Therapie- und Seminarzentrum geben. Für den Vorabend ist ein Vortrag geplant. Katharina zitiert Riccardo Leppe: „Es ändert sich nur was, wenn man es selbst tut.“ Er sei sich sicher, dass der Fortschritt beim Freilernen inzwischen so weit ist, dass „die Paste nicht wieder zurück in die Tube geht“.

Der Übergang zur Berufsausbildung

Die ersten Freilernerkinder kommen jetzt in das Alter, in dem sie eine Berufsausbildung beginnen können. Aurelius und Benjamin, die beiden „Großen“, machen seit Anfang des Jahres schon erste Praktika bei ortsansässigen Handwerksbetrieben. Beide Seiten sind sehr zufrieden. Durch die Praktika, die länger dauern als im schulischen Lehrplan vorgesehen, können sich die Kinder ausprobieren. Katharina findet es interessant miterleben zu dürfen, wie auf ihre Kinder reagiert wird. Bringen sie etwas mit, das die anderen nicht haben? Denken sie anders mit? Benjamin bekam schon ein Angebot, in einem Metallbau-Betrieb stundenweise mitzuarbeiten. In den Betrieben weiß man, dass die Abschlüsse der staatlichen Schulen größtenteils das Papier nicht wert sind, auf dem sie stehen. Viele verlassen die Schule und können kaum lesen und schreiben, von Selbstorganisation ganz zu schweigen. Ein Freilerner kann eine staatliche Externen-Prüfung ablegen, um einen Haupt- oder Realschulabschluss zu erwerben. Katharina: „Für eine Ausbildung bei einem privaten Unternehmer braucht man das nicht, allein der Unternehmer entscheidet über die Aufnahme des Auszubildenden“. Außerdem stehen den jungen Leuten Privatschulen oder der zweite Bildungsweg zur Verfügung. Wenn man einen praktischen Beruf ergreift, ist es immer noch möglich, sich bis zur Hochschulreife weiterzubilden. Nach mehrjährigen Tätigkeiten kann man bei den Kammern von Industrie, Handel und Handwerk (IHK und HWK) eine Abschlussprüfung ablegen, mit der man zum Studium zugelassen werden kann. Oder man geht gleich den Weg in die Selbstständigkeit.

Frei lernen weitergedacht

Während der Coronazeit haben sich in Sachsen und speziell um Leipzig herum kleine Freilernergruppen gefunden. Die Gruppen werden aktuell zusammengeführt, um zum Beispiel gemeinsam den Mathematikunterricht zu gestalten. Besonders um Dresden herum ist die Szene noch stärker ausgeprägt. Außerdem gibt es seit mehr als 20 Jahren den Bundesverband Natürlich Lernen (BVNL). Er bietet Beratung und zentrale Veranstaltungen an.

Der Wunsch nach dem freien Lernen ohne Schulzwang ist groß. Doch die meisten Eltern wollen ihre Kinder dafür irgendwo abgeben und nicht selbst unterrichten. Katharinas größter Wunsch ist es, drei bis fünf Elternpaare zu finden, die sich in die Betreuung und Unterrichtung ihrer Kinder teilen. Das größte Hindernis dafür sieht sie in den Eltern selbst. Durch ungelöste transgenerative Konflikte und unverarbeitete Familientraumata kommen sie noch nicht in ihre eigene Kraft für ein selbstbestimmtes Leben. Viele wagen es noch nicht, ihre Erwerbstätigkeit zugunsten der Kinder einzuschränken. Katharina sieht es als große Aufgabe für sich und ihre Familie, mit dem Freilernen das Gemeinschaftsbewusstsein und gute Konfliktlösungsstrategien zu entwickeln. Sie denkt dabei bereits an ihre Enkel. Aber sie weiß auch, dass die Eltern ein sehr hohes Maß an Eigeninitiative, Motivation und Selbstdisziplin aufbringen müssen. Sie würde Eltern, die sich das noch nicht zutrauen, als Traumabegleiterin zur Verfügung stehen, für einen angemessenen Energieausgleich. Diese gegenseitige Unterstützung käme Kindern und Eltern zugute. Ebenso hält sie die Idee der Mehrgenerationenerziehung für wichtig. Dabei profitieren nicht nur die Kinder. Die Erfahrungen der älteren Menschen gehen nicht verloren, sondern werden an die jüngeren Generationen weitergegeben und machen sie resilienter. Das hilft den Eltern, ihrer Erwerbsarbeit nachzugehen und Familientraumata zu bewältigen.

Katharina ist eine starke Frau und sprüht nur so vor Energie. Selbst als wir nach 21 Uhr das Therapiezentrum verlassen, sind ihr die Anstrengungen des Tages nicht anzumerken. Sie wird nicht müde beim Sprechen. Für Fragen zum Thema Freilernen kann man sich an sie wenden.

Hi frens! 🦖

📖 How’s your weekend starting out? I’ve been painting and reading, and I’m super excited to share that I finally finished Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton!

😜 I’m still working on the art of convincing people to read a book without spoiling it, but I’ll do my best here.

📕 Let me just say: the book is so much better than the movie (and that’s saying something, because the movie will always have a special place in my heart). The novel is basically one cliffhanger after another—I was absolutely hooked! There’s nonstop adventure and so much tension as the characters dodge dinosaurs at every turn.

I was pleasantly surprised by how the characters react to the dinosaurs in the book. I love Ian Malcolm’s character even more here—his warnings about the park being a disaster waiting to happen are even sharper and more compelling. I thought Dr. Grant would come to the same conclusion as Malcolm a bit sooner, but as a paleontologist, he’s understandably in awe—this is the pinnacle of his career, after all! Unlike Malcolm, he has less time to process the reality of prehistoric creatures walking the earth again.

The characters are all a bit different (sometimes a LOT different) from their movie versions, but it works so well. If I could change one thing, I would have loved to see Dr. Sattler play a bigger role throughout the novel.

📝 All in all, I’m so glad I finally read it. There’s action, adventure, dinosaurs, humans being humans, and a sprinkle of science and deep questions about the consequences of our actions. I was hooked from start to finish.

If you haven’t read it yet, I hope you give yourself the chance—don’t wait as long as I did!

See you later, alligator 🐊

Godspeed! By the way, I wrote and painted some dinosaurs here 👀 just in case you want to know more about dinosaurs, just like it happened to me!

Pode demorar um pouco para espalhar os dados, metadados e dados do sistema em todos os dispositivos de armazenamento do RAID se ele contiver muitos dados.

Opções importantes de montagem Btrfs

Nesta seção, vou explicar algumas das importantes opções de montagem do Btrfs. Então vamos começar.

As opções de montagem Btrfs mais importantes são:

**1. acl e noacl

**ACL gerencia permissões de usuários e grupos para os arquivos/diretórios do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

A opção de montagem acl Btrfs habilita ACL. Para desabilitar a ACL, você pode usar a opção de montagem noacl .

Por padrão, a ACL está habilitada. Portanto, o sistema de arquivos Btrfs usa a opção de montagem acl por padrão.

**2. autodefrag e noautodefrag

**Desfragmentar um sistema de arquivos Btrfs melhorará o desempenho do sistema de arquivos reduzindo a fragmentação de dados.

A opção de montagem autodefrag permite a desfragmentação automática do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

A opção de montagem noautodefrag desativa a desfragmentação automática do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

Por padrão, a desfragmentação automática está desabilitada. Portanto, o sistema de arquivos Btrfs usa a opção de montagem noautodefrag por padrão.

**3. compactar e compactar-forçar

**Controla a compactação de dados no nível do sistema de arquivos do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

A opção compactar compacta apenas os arquivos que valem a pena compactar (se compactar o arquivo economizar espaço em disco).

A opção compress-force compacta todos os arquivos do sistema de arquivos Btrfs, mesmo que a compactação do arquivo aumente seu tamanho.

O sistema de arquivos Btrfs suporta muitos algoritmos de compactação e cada um dos algoritmos de compactação possui diferentes níveis de compactação.

Os algoritmos de compactação suportados pelo Btrfs são: lzo , zlib (nível 1 a 9) e zstd (nível 1 a 15).

Você pode especificar qual algoritmo de compactação usar para o sistema de arquivos Btrfs com uma das seguintes opções de montagem:

• compress=algoritmo:nível
• compress-force=algoritmo:nível

Para obter mais informações, consulte meu artigo Como habilitar a compactação do sistema de arquivos Btrfs .

**4. subvol e subvolid

**Estas opções de montagem são usadas para montar separadamente um subvolume específico de um sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

A opção de montagem subvol é usada para montar o subvolume de um sistema de arquivos Btrfs usando seu caminho relativo.

A opção de montagem subvolid é usada para montar o subvolume de um sistema de arquivos Btrfs usando o ID do subvolume.

Para obter mais informações, consulte meu artigo Como criar e montar subvolumes Btrfs .

**5. dispositivo

A opção de montagem de dispositivo** é usada no sistema de arquivos Btrfs de vários dispositivos ou RAID Btrfs.

Em alguns casos, o sistema operacional pode falhar ao detectar os dispositivos de armazenamento usados em um sistema de arquivos Btrfs de vários dispositivos ou RAID Btrfs. Nesses casos, você pode usar a opção de montagem do dispositivo para especificar os dispositivos que deseja usar para o sistema de arquivos de vários dispositivos Btrfs ou RAID.

Você pode usar a opção de montagem de dispositivo várias vezes para carregar diferentes dispositivos de armazenamento para o sistema de arquivos de vários dispositivos Btrfs ou RAID.

Você pode usar o nome do dispositivo (ou seja, sdb , sdc ) ou UUID , UUID_SUB ou PARTUUID do dispositivo de armazenamento com a opção de montagem do dispositivo para identificar o dispositivo de armazenamento.

Por exemplo,

• dispositivo=/dev/sdb
• dispositivo=/dev/sdb,dispositivo=/dev/sdc
• dispositivo=UUID_SUB=490a263d-eb9a-4558-931e-998d4d080c5d
• device=UUID_SUB=490a263d-eb9a-4558-931e-998d4d080c5d,device=UUID_SUB=f7ce4875-0874-436a-b47d-3edef66d3424

**6. degraded

A opção de montagem degradada** permite que um RAID Btrfs seja montado com menos dispositivos de armazenamento do que o perfil RAID requer.

Por exemplo, o perfil raid1 requer a presença de 2 dispositivos de armazenamento. Se um dos dispositivos de armazenamento não estiver disponível em qualquer caso, você usa a opção de montagem degradada para montar o RAID mesmo que 1 de 2 dispositivos de armazenamento esteja disponível.

**7. commit

A opção commit** mount é usada para definir o intervalo (em segundos) dentro do qual os dados serão gravados no dispositivo de armazenamento.

O padrão é definido como 30 segundos.

Para definir o intervalo de confirmação para 15 segundos, você pode usar a opção de montagem commit=15 (digamos).

**8. ssd e nossd

A opção de montagem ssd** informa ao sistema de arquivos Btrfs que o sistema de arquivos está usando um dispositivo de armazenamento SSD, e o sistema de arquivos Btrfs faz a otimização SSD necessária.

A opção de montagem nossd desativa a otimização do SSD.

O sistema de arquivos Btrfs detecta automaticamente se um SSD é usado para o sistema de arquivos Btrfs. Se um SSD for usado, a opção de montagem de SSD será habilitada. Caso contrário, a opção de montagem nossd é habilitada.

**9. ssd_spread e nossd_spread

A opção de montagem ssd_spread** tenta alocar grandes blocos contínuos de espaço não utilizado do SSD. Esse recurso melhora o desempenho de SSDs de baixo custo (baratos).

A opção de montagem nossd_spread desativa o recurso ssd_spread .

O sistema de arquivos Btrfs detecta automaticamente se um SSD é usado para o sistema de arquivos Btrfs. Se um SSD for usado, a opção de montagem ssd_spread será habilitada. Caso contrário, a opção de montagem nossd_spread é habilitada.

**10. descarte e nodiscard

Se você estiver usando um SSD que suporte TRIM enfileirado assíncrono (SATA rev3.1), a opção de montagem de descarte** permitirá o descarte de blocos de arquivos liberados. Isso melhorará o desempenho do SSD.

Se o SSD não suportar TRIM enfileirado assíncrono, a opção de montagem de descarte prejudicará o desempenho do SSD. Nesse caso, a opção de montagem nodiscard deve ser usada.

Por padrão, a opção de montagem nodiscard é usada.

**11. norecovery

Se a opção de montagem norecovery** for usada, o sistema de arquivos Btrfs não tentará executar a operação de recuperação de dados no momento da montagem.

**12. usebackuproot e nousebackuproot

Se a opção de montagem usebackuproot for usada, o sistema de arquivos Btrfs tentará recuperar qualquer raiz de árvore ruim/corrompida no momento da montagem. O sistema de arquivos Btrfs pode armazenar várias raízes de árvore no sistema de arquivos. A opção de montagem usebackuproot** procurará uma boa raiz de árvore e usará a primeira boa que encontrar.

A opção de montagem nousebackuproot não verificará ou recuperará raízes de árvore inválidas/corrompidas no momento da montagem. Este é o comportamento padrão do sistema de arquivos Btrfs.

**13. space_cache, space_cache=version, nospace_cache e clear_cache

A opção de montagem space_cache** é usada para controlar o cache de espaço livre. O cache de espaço livre é usado para melhorar o desempenho da leitura do espaço livre do grupo de blocos do sistema de arquivos Btrfs na memória (RAM).

O sistema de arquivos Btrfs suporta 2 versões do cache de espaço livre: v1 (padrão) e v2

O mecanismo de cache de espaço livre v2 melhora o desempenho de sistemas de arquivos grandes (tamanho de vários terabytes).

Você pode usar a opção de montagem space_cache=v1 para definir a v1 do cache de espaço livre e a opção de montagem space_cache=v2 para definir a v2 do cache de espaço livre.

A opção de montagem clear_cache é usada para limpar o cache de espaço livre.

Quando o cache de espaço livre v2 é criado, o cache deve ser limpo para criar um cache de espaço livre v1 .

Portanto, para usar o cache de espaço livre v1 após a criação do cache de espaço livre v2 , as opções de montagem clear_cache e space_cache=v1 devem ser combinadas: clear_cache,space_cache=v1

A opção de montagem nospace_cache é usada para desabilitar o cache de espaço livre.

Para desabilitar o cache de espaço livre após a criação do cache v1 ou v2 , as opções de montagem nospace_cache e clear_cache devem ser combinadas: clear_cache,nosapce_cache

**14. skip_balance

Por padrão, a operação de balanceamento interrompida/pausada de um sistema de arquivos Btrfs de vários dispositivos ou RAID Btrfs será retomada automaticamente assim que o sistema de arquivos Btrfs for montado. Para desabilitar a retomada automática da operação de equilíbrio interrompido/pausado em um sistema de arquivos Btrfs de vários dispositivos ou RAID Btrfs, você pode usar a opção de montagem skip_balance .**

**15. datacow e nodatacow

A opção datacow** mount habilita o recurso Copy-on-Write (CoW) do sistema de arquivos Btrfs. É o comportamento padrão.

Se você deseja desabilitar o recurso Copy-on-Write (CoW) do sistema de arquivos Btrfs para os arquivos recém-criados, monte o sistema de arquivos Btrfs com a opção de montagem nodatacow .

**16. datasum e nodatasum

A opção datasum** mount habilita a soma de verificação de dados para arquivos recém-criados do sistema de arquivos Btrfs. Este é o comportamento padrão.

Se você não quiser que o sistema de arquivos Btrfs faça a soma de verificação dos dados dos arquivos recém-criados, monte o sistema de arquivos Btrfs com a opção de montagem nodatasum .

Perfis Btrfs

Um perfil Btrfs é usado para informar ao sistema de arquivos Btrfs quantas cópias dos dados/metadados devem ser mantidas e quais níveis de RAID devem ser usados para os dados/metadados. O sistema de arquivos Btrfs contém muitos perfis. Entendê-los o ajudará a configurar um RAID Btrfs da maneira que você deseja.

Os perfis Btrfs disponíveis são os seguintes:

single : Se o perfil único for usado para os dados/metadados, apenas uma cópia dos dados/metadados será armazenada no sistema de arquivos, mesmo se você adicionar vários dispositivos de armazenamento ao sistema de arquivos. Assim, 100% do espaço em disco de cada um dos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos pode ser utilizado.

dup : Se o perfil dup for usado para os dados/metadados, cada um dos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos manterá duas cópias dos dados/metadados. Assim, 50% do espaço em disco de cada um dos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos pode ser utilizado.

raid0 : No perfil raid0 , os dados/metadados serão divididos igualmente em todos os dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Nesta configuração, não haverá dados/metadados redundantes (duplicados). Assim, 100% do espaço em disco de cada um dos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos pode ser usado. Se, em qualquer caso, um dos dispositivos de armazenamento falhar, todo o sistema de arquivos será corrompido. Você precisará de pelo menos dois dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid0 .

raid1 : No perfil raid1 , duas cópias dos dados/metadados serão armazenadas nos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Nesta configuração, a matriz RAID pode sobreviver a uma falha de unidade. Mas você pode usar apenas 50% do espaço total em disco. Você precisará de pelo menos dois dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid1 .

raid1c3 : No perfil raid1c3 , três cópias dos dados/metadados serão armazenadas nos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Nesta configuração, a matriz RAID pode sobreviver a duas falhas de unidade, mas você pode usar apenas 33% do espaço total em disco. Você precisará de pelo menos três dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid1c3 .

raid1c4 : No perfil raid1c4 , quatro cópias dos dados/metadados serão armazenadas nos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Nesta configuração, a matriz RAID pode sobreviver a três falhas de unidade, mas você pode usar apenas 25% do espaço total em disco. Você precisará de pelo menos quatro dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid1c4 .

raid10 : No perfil raid10 , duas cópias dos dados/metadados serão armazenadas nos dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos, como no perfil raid1 . Além disso, os dados/metadados serão divididos entre os dispositivos de armazenamento, como no perfil raid0 .

O perfil raid10 é um híbrido dos perfis raid1 e raid0 . Alguns dos dispositivos de armazenamento formam arrays raid1 e alguns desses arrays raid1 são usados para formar um array raid0 . Em uma configuração raid10 , o sistema de arquivos pode sobreviver a uma única falha de unidade em cada uma das matrizes raid1 .

Você pode usar 50% do espaço total em disco na configuração raid10 . Você precisará de pelo menos quatro dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid10 .

raid5 : No perfil raid5 , uma cópia dos dados/metadados será dividida entre os dispositivos de armazenamento. Uma única paridade será calculada e distribuída entre os dispositivos de armazenamento do array RAID.

Em uma configuração raid5 , o sistema de arquivos pode sobreviver a uma única falha de unidade. Se uma unidade falhar, você pode adicionar uma nova unidade ao sistema de arquivos e os dados perdidos serão calculados a partir da paridade distribuída das unidades em execução.

Você pode usar 1 00x(N-1)/N % do total de espaços em disco na configuração raid5 . Aqui, N é o número de dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Você precisará de pelo menos três dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid5 .

raid6 : No perfil raid6 , uma cópia dos dados/metadados será dividida entre os dispositivos de armazenamento. Duas paridades serão calculadas e distribuídas entre os dispositivos de armazenamento do array RAID.

Em uma configuração raid6 , o sistema de arquivos pode sobreviver a duas falhas de unidade ao mesmo tempo. Se uma unidade falhar, você poderá adicionar uma nova unidade ao sistema de arquivos e os dados perdidos serão calculados a partir das duas paridades distribuídas das unidades em execução.

Você pode usar 100x(N-2)/N % do espaço total em disco na configuração raid6 . Aqui, N é o número de dispositivos de armazenamento adicionados ao sistema de arquivos. Você precisará de pelo menos quatro dispositivos de armazenamento para configurar o sistema de arquivos Btrfs no perfil raid6 .

Block’s hardware wallet sparks debate between security and borderline compromises.

The debate ignited after Jack Dorsey publicly supported the superiority of “seedless” wallets over traditional solutions on X.

seedless is safer https://t.co/MvjmFcQE8k

— jack (@jack) May 27, 2025

The Twitter co-founder and Block CEO sustained this by promoting Bitkey, a company that completely eliminates seed phrases, aiming to simplify the user experience and improve security through different recovery options.

The Bitkey model

Bitkey represents a different solution compared to the traditional approach to bitcoin custody. Instead of relying on a single seed phrase, the system implements a 2-of-3 multisig scheme that distributes security across three distinct keys:

• Hardware key: protected by biometric fingerprint on the physical device;
• Mobile key: stored in the smartphone app;
• Server key: managed by Block’s servers.

Any transaction requires two of the three signatures, eliminating the single point of failure represented by traditional seed phrases, the company claims. In its official documents, Bitkey explains how this approach, according to the company, offers three different recovery paths: phone loss, hardware loss, or loss of both through “Trusted Contacts,” pre-set trusted people who can help the user regain wallet access without being able to see the balance or control the private keys.

The seed phrase criticism

For the Bitkey team, the seed phrase paradoxically represents the weakest link in the Bitcoin security chain. While private keys are “exceptionally secure” within the hardware – “designed for security, isolated from networks, physically reinforced” – the seed phrase is “plain text, readable, physically vulnerable,” the company states.

Bitkey developers argue that the industry has “offloaded the most complex part of the security model onto individuals least equipped to handle it.”

System limits and dependencies

However, Bitkey’s simplicity comes at a price. The system introduces a dependency on Block for optimal multisig functionality. Although users always maintain the ability to move funds using the two keys in their possession, recovery procedures and many advanced features require collaboration from the company’s servers.

This architecture presents limitations in terms of flexibility: users cannot use Bitkey with other mobile applications, cannot import the wallet into alternative solutions, and do not have direct access to seed phrases for traditional backup operations.

One of the most frequent criticisms concerns the absence of a screen on the hardware device. Unlike traditional hardware wallets that allow direct verification of destination addresses and transaction amounts on the device display, Bitkey forces users to rely exclusively on the mobile app for these details. This design choice introduces what critics define as a “blind signing risk”: if the mobile app were compromised by malware, users could unknowingly authorize altered transactions without the possibility of independent verification.

Community criticism

Dorsey’s post sparked contrasting reactions in the community. The most orthodox bitcoiners mainly contest two aspects:

• third-party dependency: despite Bitkey maintaining the “self-custody” label, the need to rely on Block’s servers for many operations contradicts the autonomy principles that many bitcoiners consider fundamental;
• loss of technical control: the inability to directly manage the seed phrase or use the device in customized multisig configurations limits the user’s technical sovereignty.

Some users have criticized Block’s hardware wallet. User bamskki highlighted how “the lack of a screen forces users to rely on the app for transaction details. Unlike traditional hardware wallets with screens, Bitkey users cannot verify transactions independently. Users must trust the app as the source of truth.”

Even more critical was user nakadai_mon, who ironized about Dorsey’s strategy writing: “It would be a shame if I influenced you to abandon the seed and locked you into my ecosystem so I can surveil you, sell and share your personal data with government authorities and deny you service.”

Dorsey responded directly to both criticisms. To bamskki he replied:

it's a start, not our end. we will iterate the product like everything else.

More articulated was his response to nakadai_mon:

we are working on much of the privacy aspects (launching soon). and you don't have to use our 3rd key. that's where some of the restrictions come in. working to figure out how to allow folks to create their own trusted 3rd party as well. but all of this is designed to get people…

— jack (@jack) May 28, 2025

However, privacy concerns are not unfounded. Bitkey’s own documentation clarifies that “because we maintain this key, we are able to identify transaction data on the blockchain related to your Bitkey” and that “this information is collected when you transfer bitcoin to or from your Bitkey.”

Additionally, Block declares using automated decision-making systems, without direct staff involvement, to manage some activities that have legal effects on users. Among these, the application of sanctions restrictions: the system is programmed to automatically prevent the purchase and use of Bitkey by people or countries subject to international sanctions. Finally, the privacy policy specifies that users’ personal data can be shared with law enforcement, government agencies, officials, or authorized third parties in the presence of a warrant, court order, or other legal obligation. Block reserves the right to disclose this information whenever it deems necessary to comply with regulations, legal proceedings, or government requests.

Hardware security and compromises

From a hardware security perspective, Bitkey implements advanced protections including unique device identifiers, secure boot, and anti-tamper technologies. In case the device were compromised, an attacker would still need to access a second key to steal funds.

According to Dorsey’s statements, Bitkey represents an attempt to make self-custody accessible to a broader audience. The company’s roadmap promises improvements in terms of privacy, security, and usability.

DAOs promised decentralization. They offered a system where every member could influence a project's direction, where money and power were transparently distributed, and decisions were made through voting. All of it recorded immutably on the blockchain, free from middlemen.

But something didn’t work out. In practice, most DAOs haven’t evolved into living, self-organizing organisms. They became something else: clubs where participation is unevenly distributed. Leaders remained - only now without formal titles. They hold influence through control over communications, task framing, and community dynamics. Centralization still exists, just wrapped in a new package.

But there's a second, less obvious problem. Crowds can’t create strategy. In DAOs, people vote for what "feels right to the majority." But strategy isn’t about what feels good - it’s about what’s necessary. Difficult, unpopular, yet forward-looking decisions often fail when put to a vote. A founder’s vision is a risk. But in healthy teams, it’s that risk that drives progress. In DAOs, risk is almost always diluted until it becomes something safe and vague.

Instead of empowering leaders, DAOs often neutralize them. This is why many DAOs resemble consensus machines. Everyone talks, debates, and participates, but very little actually gets done. One person says, “Let’s jump,” and five others respond, “Let’s discuss that first.” This dynamic might work for open forums, but not for action.

Decentralization works when there’s trust and delegation, not just voting. Until DAOs develop effective systems for assigning roles, taking ownership, and acting with flexibility, they will keep losing ground to old-fashioned startups led by charismatic founders with a clear vision.

We’ve seen this in many real-world cases. Take MakerDAO, one of the most mature and technically sophisticated DAOs. Its governance token (MKR) holders vote on everything from interest rates to protocol upgrades. While this has allowed for transparency and community involvement, the process is often slow and bureaucratic. Complex proposals stall. Strategic pivots become hard to implement. And in 2023, a controversial proposal to allocate billions to real-world assets passed only narrowly, after months of infighting - highlighting how vision and execution can get stuck in the mud of distributed governance.

On the other hand, Uniswap DAO, responsible for the largest decentralized exchange, raised governance participation only after launching a delegation system where token holders could choose trusted representatives. Still, much of the activity is limited to a small group of active contributors. The vast majority of token holders remain passive. This raises the question: is it really community-led, or just a formalized power structure with lower transparency?

Then there’s ConstitutionDAO, an experiment that went viral. It raised over $40 million in days to try and buy a copy of the U.S. Constitution. But despite the hype, the DAO failed to win the auction. Afterwards, it struggled with refund logistics, communication breakdowns, and confusion over governance. It was a perfect example of collective enthusiasm without infrastructure or planning - proof that a DAO can raise capital fast but still lack cohesion.

Not all efforts have failed. Projects like Gitcoin DAO have made progress by incentivizing small, individual contributions. Their quadratic funding mechanism rewards projects based on the number of contributors, not just the size of donations, helping to elevate grassroots initiatives. But even here, long-term strategy often falls back on a core group of organizers rather than broad community consensus.

The pattern is clear: when the stakes are low or the tasks are modular, DAOs can coordinate well. But when bold moves are needed—when someone has to take responsibility and act under uncertainty DAOs often freeze. In the name of consensus, they lose momentum.

That’s why the organization of the future can’t rely purely on decentralization. It must encourage individual initiative and the ability to take calculated risks. People need to see their contribution not just as a vote, but as a role with clear actions and expected outcomes. When the situation demands, they should be empowered to act first and present the results to the community afterwards allowing for both autonomy and accountability. That’s not a flaw in the system. It’s how real progress happens.

Bitcoin surpasses gold in the United States: 50 million holders and a dominant role in the global market.

According to a new report by River, for the first time in history, the number of Americans owning bitcoin has surpassed that of gold holders. The analysis reveals that approximately 50 million U.S. citizens currently own the cryptocurrency, while gold owners number 37 million. In fact, 14.3% of Americans own bitcoin, the highest percentage of holders worldwide.

Source: River

The report highlights that 40% of all Bitcoin-focused companies are based in the United States, consolidating America’s dominant position in the sector. Additionally, 40.5% of Bitcoin holders are men aged 31 to 35, followed by 35.9% of men aged 41 to 45. In contrast, only 13.4% of holders are women.

Source: River

Notably, U.S. companies hold 94.8% of all bitcoins owned by publicly traded companies worldwide. According to the report, recent regulatory changes in the U.S. have made the asset more accessible through financial products such as spot ETFs.

The document also shows that American investors increasingly view the cryptocurrency as protection against fiscal instability and inflation, appreciating its limited supply and decentralized governance model.

For River, Bitcoin offers significant practical advantages over gold in the modern digital era. Its ease of custody, cross-border transfer, and liquidity make the cryptocurrency an attractive option for both individual and institutional investors, the report suggests.

I’m drawn to extremities in art. The louder, the bolder, the more outrageous, the better. Bold art takes me out of the mundane into a whole new world where anything and everything is possible. Having grown up in the safety of the suburban midwest, I was a bit of a rebellious soul in search of the satiation that only came from the consumption of the outrageous. My inclination to find bold art draws me to NOSTR, because I believe NOSTR can be the place where the next generation of artistic pioneers go to express themselves. I also believe that as much as we are able, were should invite them to come create here.

My Background: A Small Side Story

My father was a professional gamer in the 80s, back when there was no money or glory in the avocation. He did get a bit of spotlight though after the fact: in the mid 2000’s there were a few parties making documentaries about that era of gaming as well as current arcade events (namely 2007’sChasing GhostsandThe King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters). As a result of these documentaries, there was a revival in the arcade gaming scene. My family attended events related to the documentaries or arcade gaming and I became exposed to a lot of things I wouldn’t have been able to find. The producer ofThe King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters had previously made a documentary calledNew York Dollwhich was centered around the life of bassist Arthur Kane. My 12 year old mind was blown: The New York Dolls were a glam-punk sensation dressed in drag. The music was from another planet. Johnny Thunders’ guitar playing was like Chuck Berry with more distortion and less filter. Later on I got to meet the Galaga record holder at the time, Phil Day, in Ottumwa Iowa. Phil is an Australian man of high intellect and good taste. He exposed me to great creators such as Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Shakespeare, Lou Reed, artists who created things that I had previously found inconceivable.

I believe this time period informed my current tastes and interests, but regrettably I think it also put coals on the fire of rebellion within. I stopped taking my parents and siblings seriously, the Christian faith of my family (which I now hold dearly to) seemed like a mundane sham, and I felt I couldn’t fit in with most people because of my avant-garde tastes. So I write this with the caveat that there should be a way to encourage these tastes in children without letting them walk down the wrong path. There is nothing inherently wrong with bold art, but I’d advise parents to carefully find ways to cultivate their children’s tastes without completely shutting them down and pushing them away as a result. My parents were very loving and patient during this time; I thank God for that.

With that out of the way, lets dive in to some bold artists:

Nicolas Cage: Actor

There is an excellent video by Wisecrack on Nicolas Cage that explains him better than I will, which I will linkhere. Nicolas Cage rejects the idea that good acting is tied to mere realism; all of his larger than life acting decisions are deliberate choices. When that clicked for me, I immediately realized the man is a genius. He borrows from Kabuki and German Expressionism, art forms that rely on exaggeration to get the message across. He has even created his own acting style, which he calls Nouveau Shamanic. He augments his imagination to go from acting to being. Rather than using the old hat of method acting, he transports himself to a new world mentally. The projects he chooses to partake in are based on his own interests or what he considers would be a challenge (making a bad script good for example). Thus it doesn’t matter how the end result comes out; he has already achieved his goal as an artist. Because of this and because certain directors don’t know how to use his talents, he has a noticeable amount of duds in his filmography. Dig around the duds, you’ll find some pure gold. I’d personally recommend the filmsPig, Joe, Renfield, and his Christmas film The Family Man.

Nick Cave: Songwriter

What a wild career this man has had! From the apocalyptic mayhem of his band The Birthday Party to the pensive atmosphere of his albumGhosteen, it seems like Nick Cave has tried everything. I think his secret sauce is that he’s always working. He maintains an excellent newsletter calledThe Red Hand Files, he has written screenplays such asLawless, he has written books, he has made great film scores such asThe Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, the man is religiously prolific. I believe that one of the reasons he is prolific is that he’s not afraid to experiment. If he has an idea, he follows it through to completion. From the albumMurder Ballads(which is comprised of what the title suggests) to his rejected sequel toGladiator(Gladiator: Christ Killer), he doesn’t seem to be afraid to take anything on. This has led to some over the top works as well as some deeply personal works. Albums likeSkeleton TreeandGhosteenwere journeys through the grief of his son’s death. The Boatman’s Callis arguably a better break-up album than anything Taylor Swift has put out. He’s not afraid to be outrageous, he’s not afraid to offend, but most importantly he’s not afraid to be himself. Works I’d recommend include The Birthday Party’sLive 1981-82, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’The Boatman’s Call, and the filmLawless.

Jim Jarmusch: Director

I consider Jim’s films to be bold almost in an ironic sense: his works are bold in that they are, for the most part, anti-sensational. He has a rule that if his screenplays are criticized for a lack of action, he makes them even less eventful. Even with sensational settings his films feel very close to reality, and they demonstrate the beauty of everyday life. That's what is bold about his art to me: making the sensational grounded in reality while making everyday reality all the more special. Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai is about a modern-day African-American hitman who strictly follows the rules of the ancient Samurai, yet one can resonate with the humanity of a seemingly absurd character. Only Lovers Left Aliveis a vampire love story, but in the middle of a vampire romance one can see their their own relationships in a new deeply human light. Jim’s work reminds me that art reflects life, and that there is sacred beauty in seemingly mundane everyday life. I personally recommend his filmsPaterson,Down by Law, andCoffee and Cigarettes.

NOSTR: We Need Bold Art

NOSTR is in my opinion a path to a better future. In a world creeping slowly towards everything apps, I hope that the protocol where the individual owns their data wins over everything else. I love freedom and sovereignty. If NOSTR is going to win the race of everything apps, we need more than Bitcoin content. We need more than shirtless bros paying for bananas in foreign countries and exercising with girls who have seductive accents. Common people cannot see themselves in such a world. NOSTR needs to catch the attention of everyday people. I don’t believe that this can be accomplished merely by introducing more broadly relevant content; people are searching for content that speaks to them. I believe that NOSTR can and should attract artists of all kinds because NOSTR is one of the few places on the internet where artists can express themselves fearlessly. Getting zaps from NOSTR’s value-for-value ecosystem has far less friction than crowdfunding a creative project or pitching investors that will irreversibly modify an artist’s vision. Having a place where one can post their works without fear of censorship should be extremely enticing. Having a place where one can connect with fellow humans directly as opposed to a sea of bots should seem like the obvious solution. If NOSTR can become a safe haven for artists to express themselves and spread their work, I believe that everyday people will follow. The banker whose stressful job weighs on them will suddenly find joy with an original meme made by a great visual comedian. The programmer for a healthcare company who is drowning in hopeless mundanity could suddenly find a new lust for life by hearing the song of a musician who isn’t afraid to crowdfund their their next project by putting their lighting address on the streets of the internet. The excel guru who loves independent film may find that NOSTR is the best way to support non corporate movies. My closing statement: continue to encourage the artists in your life as I’m sure you have been, but while you’re at it give them the purple pill. You may very well be a part of building a better future.

Introdução

Uma sociedade não deve ser construída sobre coerção, mas sim sobre associações voluntárias e interações espontâneas entre indivíduos. A sociedade de condomínios privados surge como uma alternativa natural ao modelo atual de centros urbanos, substituindo a imposição centralizada por estruturas baseadas em contratos e livre associação. Cada condomínio é uma unidade autônoma, gerida por aqueles que ali residem, onde os critérios de entrada, as regras internas e o comércio são definidos pelos próprios participantes. Essa estrutura permite que indivíduos se agrupem com base em valores compartilhados, eliminando os conflitos artificiais impostos por estados e legislações homogêneas que não respeitam a diversidade de preferências e estilos de vida.

O objetivo dessa sociedade é simples: permitir que as pessoas vivam de acordo com seus princípios sem interferência externa. Em um mundo onde a coerção estatal distorce incentivos, os condomínios privados oferecem uma alternativa onde a ordem surge do livre mercado e da cooperação voluntária. Os moradores escolhem seus vizinhos, definem suas próprias normas e interagem economicamente conforme suas necessidades e interesses. O modelo elimina a necessidade de um controle central, pois os incentivos derivados do livre mercado levam ao desenvolvimento de comunidades prósperas, onde a reputação e a confiança mútua são mais eficazes do que qualquer imposição estatal. Assim, essa sociedade representa a evolução lógica do conceito de liberdade individual e propriedade privada como pilares fundamentais da ordem social.

Público-Alvo e Identidade

Os condomínios privados refletem o princípio da livre associação, permitindo que indivíduos escolham viver em comunidades alinhadas com seus valores e necessidades sem interferência estatal. Cada condomínio possui uma identidade própria, moldada pelos moradores e seus interesses, criando ambientes onde afinidades culturais, filosóficas ou profissionais são preservadas e incentivadas. Enquanto alguns podem ser voltados para famílias numerosas, oferecendo amplos espaços e infraestrutura adequada, outros podem priorizar solteiros e jovens profissionais, com áreas de coworking e espaços de lazer voltados para networking e socialização. Da mesma forma, comunidades religiosas podem estabelecer seus próprios espaços de culto e eventos, enquanto condomínios para idosos podem ser projetados com acessibilidade e serviços médicos especializados.

Críticos podem afirmar que essa forma de organização resulta em pouca diversidade de habilidades e perspectivas, mas esse argumento ignora a dinâmica das interações humanas e o caráter evolutivo dos intercâmbios entre comunidades. Nenhum condomínio existe isolado; a troca entre diferentes comunidades ocorre naturalmente pelo mercado, incentivando o intercâmbio de conhecimento e serviços entre especialistas de diferentes áreas. Além disso, a ideia de que todos os grupos devem conter uma variedade aleatória de indivíduos desconsidera que a verdadeira diversidade nasce da liberdade de escolha, e não da imposição estatal de convivências forçadas.

Outra crítica possível é que a existência de critérios de entrada pode levar à segregação social. No entanto, essa preocupação deriva da concepção errônea de que todas as comunidades devem ser abertas e incluir qualquer pessoa indiscriminadamente. Porém, a liberdade de associação implica, necessariamente, a liberdade de exclusão. Se um grupo deseja manter determinada identidade cultural, religiosa ou profissional, isso não impede que outros grupos criem suas próprias comunidades conforme seus valores e recursos. Além disso, essa especialização leva a uma concorrência saudável entre condomínios, forçando-os a oferecer melhores condições para atrair moradores. Em vez de uma sociedade homogênea moldada por burocratas, temos um mosaico de comunidades autônomas, onde cada indivíduo pode encontrar ou criar o ambiente que melhor lhe convém.

Autossuficiência e Especialização

A força dos condomínios privados reside na capacidade de seus moradores de contribuírem ativamente para a comunidade, tornando-a funcional e autossuficiente sem a necessidade de intervenções estatais. Diferentes condomínios podem se especializar em áreas específicas ou ter diversos profissionais de diferentes setores, refletindo as competências e interesses de seus residentes. Essa descentralização do conhecimento e da produção permite que cada comunidade desenvolva soluções internas para suas demandas, reduzindo dependências externas e estimulando a prosperidade local.

Os moradores atuam como agentes econômicos, trocando bens e serviços dentro do próprio condomínio e entre diferentes comunidades. Um condomínio voltado para a saúde, por exemplo, pode contar com médicos, enfermeiros e terapeutas que oferecem consultas, aulas e assistência médica particular, remunerados diretamente por seus clientes, sem a intermediação de burocracias. Da mesma forma, um condomínio agrícola pode abrigar agricultores que cultivam alimentos orgânicos, compartilham técnicas de cultivo e comercializam excedentes com outros condomínios, garantindo um fluxo contínuo de suprimentos. Em um condomínio tecnológico, programadores, engenheiros e empreendedores desenvolvem soluções de TI, segurança digital e energia renovável, promovendo a inovação e ampliando as possibilidades de intercâmbio econômico.

A economia interna de cada condomínio se fortalece através de serviços oferecidos pelos próprios moradores. Professores podem ministrar aulas, técnicos podem prestar serviços de manutenção, artesãos podem vender seus produtos diretamente para os vizinhos. O mercado livre e voluntário é o principal regulador dessas interações, garantindo que a especialização surja naturalmente conforme a demanda e a oferta se ajustam. Essa estrutura elimina desperdícios comuns em sistemas centralizados, onde a alocação de recursos se dá por decisões políticas e não pelas necessidades reais da população.

Alguns argumentam que a especialização pode criar bolhas de conhecimento, tornando os condomínios excessivamente dependentes de trocas externas. Contudo, essa preocupação desconsidera a natureza espontânea do mercado, que incentiva a cooperação e o comércio entre comunidades distintas. Nenhum condomínio precisa produzir tudo internamente; ao contrário, a divisão do trabalho e a liberdade de escolha promovem interdependências saudáveis e vantajosas para todos. Assim, cada morador se insere em um ecossistema dinâmico, onde suas habilidades são valorizadas e sua autonomia preservada, sem coerções estatais ou distorções artificiais impostas por planejadores centrais.

Infraestrutura e Sustentabilidade

A solidez de uma sociedade baseada em condomínios privados depende de uma infraestrutura eficiente e sustentável, projetada para reduzir a dependência externa e garantir o máximo de autonomia. Sem um aparato estatal centralizador, cada comunidade deve estruturar seus próprios meios de obtenção de energia, água, alimentação e demais bens essenciais, garantindo que suas operações sejam viáveis a longo prazo. Essa abordagem, longe de ser um entrave, representa a verdadeira inovação descentralizada: um ambiente onde as soluções emergem da necessidade real e da engenhosidade humana, e não de diretrizes burocráticas e regulamentos ineficazes.

Cada condomínio pode investir em tecnologias sustentáveis e autônomas, como energia solar e eólica, reduzindo custos e minimizando a vulnerabilidade às flutuações do mercado energético tradicional. Sistemas de captação e filtragem de água da chuva, bem como a reutilização eficiente dos recursos hídricos, garantem independência em relação a empresas monopolistas e governos que frequentemente administram esse bem de forma ineficaz. Hortas comunitárias e fazendas verticais podem suprir grande parte da demanda alimentar, permitindo que cada condomínio mantenha sua própria reserva de alimentos, aumentando a resiliência contra crises externas e instabilidades de mercado.

Além dos recursos naturais, os espaços compartilhados desempenham um papel fundamental na integração e no fortalecimento dessas comunidades. Bibliotecas, ginásios, creches e salas de aula permitem que o conhecimento e os serviços circulem internamente, criando um ambiente onde a colaboração ocorre de maneira orgânica. A descentralização também se aplica ao uso da tecnologia, plataformas digitais privadas podem ser utilizadas para conectar moradores, facilitar a troca de serviços e produtos, além de coordenar agendamentos e eventos dentro dos condomínios e entre diferentes comunidades.

O Bitcoin surge como uma ferramenta indispensável nesse ecossistema, eliminando a necessidade de bancos estatais ou sistemas financeiros controlados. Ao permitir transações diretas, transparentes e resistentes à censura, o Bitcoin se torna o meio de troca ideal entre os condomínios, garantindo a preservação do valor e possibilitando um comércio ágil e eficiente. Além disso, contratos inteligentes e protocolos descentralizados podem ser integrados para administrar serviços comuns, fortalecer a segurança e reduzir a burocracia, tornando a governança desses condomínios cada vez mais autônoma e imune a intervenções externas.

Alguns podem argumentar que a falta de um aparato estatal para regulamentar a infraestrutura pode resultar em desigualdade no acesso a recursos essenciais, ou que a descentralização completa pode gerar caos e ineficiência. No entanto, essa visão ignora o fato de que a concorrência e a inovação no livre mercado são os maiores motores de desenvolvimento sustentável. Sem monopólios ou subsídios distorcendo a alocação de recursos, a busca por eficiência leva naturalmente à adoção de soluções melhores e mais acessíveis. Condomínios que oferecem infraestrutura de qualidade tendem a atrair mais moradores e investimentos, o que impulsiona a melhoria contínua e a diversificação dos serviços. Em vez de depender de um sistema centralizado falho, as comunidades se tornam responsáveis por sua própria prosperidade, criando uma estrutura sustentável, escalável e adaptável às mudanças do futuro.

Governança e Administração

Em uma sociedade descentralizada, não se deve depender de uma estrutura estatal ou centralizada para regular e tomar decisões em nome dos indivíduos. Cada condomínio, portanto, deve ser gerido de maneira autônoma, com processos claros de tomada de decisão, resolução de conflitos e administração das questões cotidianas. A gestão pode ser organizada por conselhos de moradores, associações ou sistemas de governança direta, conforme as necessidades locais.

Conselhos de Moradores e Processos de Tomada de Decisão

Em muitos casos, a administração interna de um condomínio privado pode ser realizada por um conselho de moradores, composto por representantes eleitos ou indicados pela própria comunidade. A ideia é garantir que as decisões importantes, como planejamento urbano, orçamento, manutenção e serviços, sejam feitas de forma transparente e que os interesses de todos os envolvidos sejam considerados. Isso não significa que a gestão precise ser completamente democrática, mas sim que as decisões devem ser tomadas de forma legítima, transparente e acordadas pela maior parte dos membros.

Em vez de um processo burocrático e centralizado, onde uma liderança impõe suas vontades sobre todos a muitas vezes suas decisões ruins não o afetam diretamente, a gestão de um condomínio privado deve ser orientada pela busca de consenso, onde os próprios gestores sofrerão as consequências de suas más escolhas. O processo de tomada de decisão pode ser dinâmico e direto, com os moradores discutindo e acordando soluções baseadas no mercado e nas necessidades locais, em vez de depender de um sistema impessoal de regulamentação. Além disso, a utilização de tecnologias descentralizadas, como plataformas de blockchain, pode proporcionar maior transparência nas decisões e maior confiança na gestão.

Resolução de Conflitos

A resolução de disputas dentro dos condomínios pode ocorrer de forma voluntária, através de negociação direta ou com o auxílio de mediadores escolhidos pelos próprios moradores por meio de um sistema de reputação. Em alguns casos, podem ser criados mecanismos para resolução de disputas mais formais, com árbitros ou juízes independentes que atuam sem vínculos com o condomínio. Esses árbitros podem ser escolhidos com base em sua experiência ou especialização em áreas como direito, mediação e resolução de conflitos, com uma reputação para zelar. Ao contrário de um sistema judicial centralizado, onde a parte envolvida depende do Estado para resolver disputas, os moradores possuem a autonomia para buscar soluções que atendam aos seus próprios interesses e necessidades. A diversidade de abordagens em um sistema de governança descentralizado cria oportunidades para inovações que atendem diferentes cenários, sem a interferência de burocratas distantes dos próprios problemas que estão "tentando resolver".

Planejamento Urbano e Arquitetura

A questão do design dos condomínios envolve não apenas a estética das construções, mas também a funcionalidade e a sustentabilidade a longo prazo. O planejamento urbano deve refletir as necessidades específicas da comunidade, onde ela decide por si mesma como construir e organizar seu ambiente.\ Arquitetos e urbanistas, muitas vezes moradores especializados, serão responsáveis pela concepção de espaços que atendam a esses critérios, criando ambientes agradáveis, com áreas para lazer, trabalho e convivência que atendam às diversas necessidades de cada grupo.\ Além disso, condomínios com nessecidades semelhantes poderão adotar ideias que deram certo em outros e certamente também dará no seu.

Segurança e Vigilância

Em relação à segurança, cada condomínio pode adotar sistemas de vigilância e proteção que atendam à sua realidade específica. Algumas comunidades podem optar por sistemas de câmeras de segurança, armamento pleno de seus moradores, patrulhamento privado ou até mesmo formas alternativas de garantir a proteção, como vigilância por meio de criptografia e monitoramento descentralizado. A chave para a segurança será a confiança mútua e a colaboração voluntária entre os moradores, que terão a liberdade de definir suas próprias medidas.

Comércio entre Condomínios

A troca de bens e serviços entre as diferentes comunidades é essencial para o funcionamento da rede. Como cada condomínio possui um grau de especialização ou uma mistura de profissionais em diversas áreas, a interdependência entre eles se torna crucial para suprir necessidades e promover a colaboração.

Embora alguns condomínios sejam especializados em áreas como saúde, agricultura ou tecnologia, outros podem ter um perfil mais diversificado, com moradores que atuam em diferentes campos de conhecimento. Por exemplo, um condomínio agrícola pode produzir alimentos orgânicos frescos, enquanto um condomínio de saúde oferece consultas médicas, terapias e cuidados especializados. Já um condomínio tecnológico pode fornecer inovações em software ou equipamentos de energia. Podem haver condomínios universitários que oferecem todo tipo de solução no campo de ensino. Ao mesmo tempo, um condomínio misto, com moradores de diversas áreas, pode oferecer uma variedade de serviços e produtos, tornando-se um centro de intercâmbio de diferentes tipos de expertise.

Essa divisão de trabalho, seja especializada ou diversificada, permite que os condomínios ofereçam o melhor de suas áreas de atuação, ao mesmo tempo em que atendem às demandas de outros. Um condomínio que não se especializa pode, por exemplo, buscar um acordo de troca com um condomínio agrícola para obter alimentos frescos ou com um condomínio tecnológico para adquirir soluções inovadoras.

Embora os condomínios busquem a autossuficiência, alguns recursos essenciais não podem ser produzidos internamente. Itens como minérios para construção, combustíveis ou até mesmo água, em regiões secas, não estão disponíveis em todas as áreas. A natureza não distribui os recursos de maneira uniforme, e a capacidade de produção local pode ser insuficiente para suprir todas as necessidades dos moradores. Isso implica que, para garantir a qualidade de vida e a continuidade das operações, os condomínios precisarão estabelecer relações comerciais e de fornecimento com fontes externas, seja através de mercados, importações ou parcerias com outras comunidades ou fornecedores fora do sistema de condomínios. O comércio intercondomínios e com o exterior será vital para a complementaridade das necessidades, assegurando que os moradores tenham acesso a tudo o que não pode ser produzido localmente.

O sistema econômico entre os condomínios pode ser flexível, permitindo o uso de uma moeda comum (como o Bitcoin) ou até mesmo um sistema de troca direta. Por exemplo, um morador de um condomínio misto pode oferecer serviços de design gráfico em troca de alimentos ou cuidados médicos. Esse tipo de colaboração estimula a produtividade e cria incentivos para que cada condomínio ofereça o melhor de seus recursos e habilidades, garantindo acesso aos bens e serviços necessários.

Relações Externas e Diplomacia

O isolamento excessivo pode limitar o acesso a inovações, avanços culturais e tecnológicos, e até mesmo dificultar o acesso a mercados externos. Por isso, é importante que haja canais de comunicação e métodos de diplomacia para interagir com outras comunidades. Os condomínios podem, por exemplo, estabelecer parcerias com outras regiões, seja para troca de produtos, serviços ou até para inovação. Isso garante que a rede de condomínios não se torne autossuficiente ao ponto de se desconectar do resto do mundo, o que pode resultar em estagnação.

Feiras, mercados intercondomínios e até eventos culturais e educacionais podem ser organizados para promover essas interações. A colaboração entre as comunidades e o exterior não precisa ser baseada em uma troca de dependência, mas sim numa rede de oportunidades que cria benefícios para todas as partes envolvidas. Uma boa reputação atrai novos moradores, pode valorizar propriedades e facilitar parcerias. A diplomacia entre as comunidades também pode ser exercida para resolver disputas ou desafios externos.

A manutenção de boas relações entre condomínios é essencial para garantir uma rede de apoio mútuo eficiente. Essas relações incentivam a troca de bens e serviços, como alimentos, assistência médica ou soluções tecnológicas, além de fortalecer a autossuficiência regional. Ao colaborar em segurança, infraestrutura compartilhada, eventos culturais e até mesmo na resolução de conflitos, os condomínios se tornam mais resilientes e eficientes, reduzindo a dependência externa e melhorando a qualidade de vida dos moradores. A cooperação contínua cria um ambiente mais seguro e harmonioso.

Educação e Desenvolvimento Humano

Cada comunidade pode criar escolas internas com currículos adaptados às especializações de seus moradores. Por exemplo, em um condomínio agrícola, podem ser ensinadas práticas agrícolas sustentáveis, e em um condomínio tecnológico, cursos de programação e inovação. Isso permite que crianças e jovens cresçam em ambientes que reforçam as competências valorizadas pela comunidade.

Além das escolas internas, o conceito de homeschooling pode ser incentivado, permitindo que os pais eduquem seus filhos conforme seus próprios valores e necessidades, com o apoio da comunidade. Esse modelo oferece uma educação mais flexível e personalizada, ao contrário do currículo tradicional oferecido pelo sistema público atual.

Os condomínios universitários também podem surgir, criando ambientes dedicados ao desenvolvimento acadêmico, científico e profissional, onde estudantes vivem e aprendem. Além disso, programas de capacitação contínua são essenciais, com oficinas e cursos oferecidos dentro do condomínio para garantir que os moradores se atualizem com novas tecnologias e práticas.

Para ampliar os horizontes educacionais, os intercâmbios estudantis entre diferentes condomínios podem ser incentivados. Esses intercâmbios não se limitam apenas ao ambiente educacional, mas também se estendem ao aprendizado de práticas de vida e habilidades técnicas. Os jovens de diferentes condomínios podem viajar para outras comunidades para estudar, trabalhar ou simplesmente trocar ideias. Isso pode ocorrer de diversas formas, como programas de curto e longo prazo, através de acordos entre os próprios condomínios, permitindo que os estudantes se conectem com outras comunidades, aprendam sobre diferentes especializações e desenvolvam uma compreensão mais ampla.

Essa abordagem descentralizada permite que cada comunidade desenvolva as competências essenciais sem depender de estruturas limitantes do estado ou sistemas educacionais centralizados. Ao proporcionar liberdade de escolha e personalização, os condomínios criam ambientes propícios ao crescimento humano, alinhados às necessidades e interesses de seus moradores.

---

A sociedade dos condomínios privados propõe uma estrutura alternativa de convivência onde as pessoas podem viver de acordo com seus próprios valores e necessidades. Esses condomínios oferecem um modelo de organização que desafia a centralização estatal, buscando criar comunidades adaptáveis e inovadoras. A liberdade garante que as habilidades necessárias para o sustento e crescimento das comunidades sejam mantidas ao longo do tempo.

A troca de bens, serviços e conhecimentos entre os condomínios, sem a imposição de forças externas, cria uma rede de boas relações, onde o comércio e a colaboração substituem a intervenção estatal. Em vez de depender de sistemas coercitivos, cada condomínio funciona como um microcosmo autônomo que, juntos, formam um ecossistema dinâmico e próspero. Este modelo propõe que, por meio de trocas voluntárias, possamos construir uma sociedade mais saudável. Lembre-se: Ideias e somente ideias podem iluminar a escuridão.

LUV and Hivebits/HBIT/Wusang pause tl;dr LUV and HBIT (aka, Hivebits and the Wusang game) are on a pause at the moment, taking a break. https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/crrdlx/23x1SY8Vx8j1mVGnDFtq7ebuzKNGd8K9Ssex51AEerxks1VYikxGPShM7bjNhmSrEZ2wf.png Image from pixabay.com Why? There are odd things going on. I have a theory, but here's what is known... May 28, 2025, at about 1:30 pm GMT (8:30 AM EDT), a second attack (for lack of better term) hit HBIT in about a week. It seemed to start with @tyler45 with this comment https://peakd.com/blog/@tyler45/comment-20250528125108033 tx: https://he.dtools.dev/tx/7e7d4126196ca5b6dbe0a04dcded0e25d3bcc7f4 See tyler45's activity at https://he.dtools.dev/@tyler45 Notice the reply and WUSANG command is to a post by @olivia897 and how many of the other WUSANG comments on the explorer are in reply to olivia897. It seems these are all auto-generated accounts. The names and "birthdates" and interactions all point to automation. Once initiated, things happened very fast on the back end, clearly not being done manually. In this way, this seems rather sophisticated technically. I estimate just over 400 HBIT were pilfered the other day from the @Hivebits account before I noticed and was able to shut things down. Just for a little background, after the first attack May 21, 2025. I wrote a small bit of info: https://peakd.com/hivebits/@crrdlx/hbit-resource-credits A couple of days ago this post by @holoz0r was interesting: https://peakd.com/hive-133987/@holoz0r/text-analytics-reveal-thirty-two-percent-of-comments-on-hive-are-not-unique-and-at-least-ten-percent-add-no-value-to-discussion The thing that caught my eye was that the WUSANG comment was the largest by far, along with BBH (hello @bradleyarrow), because the attackers used both commands. Then, a few days later, things happened again: sudden start, repetitive bot attack, until I shut things down. So, a pause This is a period in my personal calendar where I simply don't have time to sit down at a computer for an extended period and try fiddle with this stuff. So, for now @Luvshares and @Hivebits (HBIT) and the @Wusang game are on hold. Plus, there's other fun stuff to do. https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/crrdlx/AJL43SREA1EuyqPXhydmqaq1RHhRVoYd12PfiBN5vDMu2WSKUtGeYWgKJyuRwV8.jpg I go by @crrdlx or "CR" for short.

Know Your Customer is a regulation that requires companies of all sizes to verify the identity, suitability, and risks involved with maintaining a business relationship with a customer. Such procedures fit within the broader scope of anti-money laundering (AML) and counterterrorism financing (CTF) regulations.

Banks, exchanges, online business, mail providers, domain registrars... Everyone wants to know who you are before you can even opt for their service. Your personal information is flowing around the internet in the hands of "god-knows-who" and secured by "trust-me-bro military-grade encryption". Once your account is linked to your personal (and verified) identity, tracking you is just as easy as keeping logs on all these platforms.

Rights for Illusions

KYC processes aim to combat terrorist financing, money laundering, and other illicit activities. On the surface, KYC seems like a commendable initiative. I mean, who wouldn't want to halt terrorists and criminals in their tracks?

The logic behind KYC is: "If we mandate every financial service provider to identify their users, it becomes easier to pinpoint and apprehend the malicious actors."

However, terrorists and criminals are not precisely lining up to be identified. They're crafty. They may adopt false identities or find alternative strategies to continue their operations. Far from being outwitted, many times they're several steps ahead of regulations. Realistically, KYC might deter a small fraction – let's say about 1% ^1 – of these malefactors. Yet, the cost? All of us are saddled with the inconvenient process of identification just to use a service.

Under the rhetoric of "ensuring our safety", governments and institutions enact regulations that seem more out of a dystopian novel, gradually taking away our right to privacy.

To illustrate, consider a city where the mayor has rolled out facial recognition cameras in every nook and cranny. A band of criminals, intent on robbing a local store, rolls in with a stolen car, their faces obscured by masks and their bodies cloaked in all-black clothes. Once they've committed the crime and exited the city's boundaries, they switch vehicles and clothes out of the cameras' watchful eyes. The high-tech surveillance? It didn’t manage to identify or trace them. Yet, for every law-abiding citizen who merely wants to drive through the city or do some shopping, their movements and identities are constantly logged. The irony? This invasive tracking impacts all of us, just to catch the 1% ^1 of less-than-careful criminals.

KYC? Not you.

KYC creates barriers to participation in normal economic activity, to supposedly stop criminals. ^2

KYC puts barriers between many users and businesses. One of these comes from the fact that the process often requires multiple forms of identification, proof of address, and sometimes even financial records. For individuals in areas with poor record-keeping, non-recognized legal documents, or those who are unbanked, homeless or transient, obtaining these documents can be challenging, if not impossible.

For people who are not skilled with technology or just don't have access to it, there's also a barrier since KYC procedures are mostly online, leaving them inadvertently excluded.

Another barrier goes for the casual or one-time user, where they might not see the value in undergoing a rigorous KYC process, and these requirements can deter them from using the service altogether.

It also wipes some businesses out of the equation, since for smaller businesses, the costs associated with complying with KYC norms—from the actual process of gathering and submitting documents to potential delays in operations—can be prohibitive in economical and/or technical terms.

You're not welcome

Imagine a swanky new club in town with a strict "members only" sign. You hear the music, you see the lights, and you want in. You step up, ready to join, but suddenly there's a long list of criteria you must meet. After some time, you are finally checking all the boxes. But then the club rejects your membership with no clear reason why. You just weren't accepted. Frustrating, right?

This club scenario isn't too different from the fact that KYC is being used by many businesses as a convenient gatekeeping tool. A perfect excuse based on a "legal" procedure they are obliged to.

Even some exchanges may randomly use this to freeze and block funds from users, claiming these were "flagged" by a cryptic system that inspects the transactions. You are left hostage to their arbitrary decision to let you successfully pass the KYC procedure. If you choose to sidestep their invasive process, they might just hold onto your funds indefinitely.

Your identity has been stolen

KYC data has been found to be for sale on many dark net markets^3. Exchanges may have leaks or hacks, and such leaks contain very sensitive data. We're talking about the full monty: passport or ID scans, proof of address, and even those awkward selfies where you're holding up your ID next to your face. All this data is being left to the mercy of the (mostly) "trust-me-bro" security systems of such companies. Quite scary, isn't it?

As cheap as $10 for 100 documents, with discounts applying for those who buy in bulk, the personal identities of innocent users who passed KYC procedures are for sale. ^3

In short, if you have ever passed the KYC/AML process of a crypto exchange, your privacy is at risk of being compromised, or it might even have already been compromised.

(they) Know Your Coins

You may already know that Bitcoin and most cryptocurrencies have a transparent public blockchain, meaning that all data is shown unencrypted for everyone to see and recorded forever. If you link an address you own to your identity through KYC, for example, by sending an amount from a KYC exchange to it, your Bitcoin is no longer pseudonymous and can then be traced.

If, for instance, you send Bitcoin from such an identified address to another KYC'ed address (say, from a friend), everyone having access to that address-identity link information (exchanges, governments, hackers, etc.) will be able to associate that transaction and know who you are transacting with.

Conclusions

To sum up, KYC does not protect individuals; rather, it's a threat to our privacy, freedom, security and integrity. Sensible information flowing through the internet is thrown into chaos by dubious security measures. It puts borders between many potential customers and businesses, and it helps governments and companies track innocent users. That's the chaos KYC has stirred.

The criminals are using stolen identities from companies that gathered them thanks to these very same regulations that were supposed to combat them. Criminals always know how to circumvent such regulations. In the end, normal people are the most affected by these policies.

The threat that KYC poses to individuals in terms of privacy, security and freedom is not to be neglected. And if we don’t start challenging these systems and questioning their efficacy, we are just one step closer to the dystopian future that is now foreseeable.

Edited 20/03/2024 * Add reference to the 1% statement on Rights for Illusions section to an article where Chainalysis found that only 0.34% of the transaction volume with cryptocurrencies in 2023 was attributable to criminal activity ^1

“The future is there... staring back at us. Trying to make sense of the fiction we will have become.” — William Gibson.

This month is the 4th anniversary of kycnot.me. Thank you for being here.

Fifteen years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto introduced Bitcoin, a peer-to-peer electronic cash system: a decentralized currency free from government and institutional control. Nakamoto's whitepaper showed a vision for a financial system based on trustless transactions, secured by cryptography. Some time forward and KYC (Know Your Customer), AML (Anti-Money Laundering), and CTF (Counter-Terrorism Financing) regulations started to come into play.

What a paradox: to engage with a system designed for decentralization, privacy, and independence, we are forced to give away our personal details. Using Bitcoin in the economy requires revealing your identity, not just to the party you interact with, but also to third parties who must track and report the interaction. You are forced to give sensitive data to entities you don't, can't, and shouldn't trust. Information can never be kept 100% safe; there's always a risk. Information is power, who knows about you has control over you.

Information asymmetry creates imbalances of power. When entities have detailed knowledge about individuals, they can manipulate, influence, or exploit this information to their advantage. The accumulation of personal data by corporations and governments enables extensive surveillances.

Such practices, moreover, exclude individuals from traditional economic systems if their documentation doesn't meet arbitrary standards, reinforcing a dystopian divide. Small businesses are similarly burdened by the costs of implementing these regulations, hindering free market competition^1:

How will they keep this information safe? Why do they need my identity? Why do they force businesses to enforce such regulations? It's always for your safety, to protect you from the "bad". Your life is perpetually in danger: terrorists, money launderers, villains... so the government steps in to save us.

‟Hush now, baby, baby, don't you cry Mamma's gonna make all of your nightmares come true Mamma's gonna put all of her fears into you Mamma's gonna keep you right here, under her wing She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing Mamma's gonna keep baby cosy and warm” — Mother, Pink Floyd

We must resist any attack on our privacy and freedom. To do this, we must collaborate.

If you have a service, refuse to ask for KYC; find a way. Accept cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Monero. Commit to circular economies. Remove the need to go through the FIAT system. People need fiat money to use most services, but we can change that.

If you're a user, donate to and prefer using services that accept such currencies. Encourage your friends to accept cryptocurrencies as well. Boycott FIAT system to the greatest extent you possibly can.

This may sound utopian, but it can be achieved. This movement can't be stopped. Go kick the hornet's nest.

“We must defend our own privacy if we expect to have any. We must come together and create systems which allow anonymous transactions to take place. People have been defending their own privacy for centuries with whispers, darkness, envelopes, closed doors, secret handshakes, and couriers. The technologies of the past did not allow for strong privacy, but electronic technologies do.” — Eric Hughes, A Cypherpunk's Manifesto

The anniversary

Four years ago, I began exploring ways to use crypto without KYC. I bookmarked a few favorite services and thought sharing them to the world might be useful. That was the first version of kycnot.me — a simple list of about 15 services. Since then, I've added services, rewritten it three times, and improved it to what it is now.

kycnot.me has remained 100% independent and 100% open source^2 all these years. I've received offers to buy the site, all of which I have declined and will continue to decline. It has been DDoS attacked many times, but we made it through. I have also rewritten the whole site almost once per year (three times in four years).

The code and scoring algorithm are open source (contributions are welcome) and I can't arbitrarly change a service's score without adding or removing attributes, making any arbitrary alterations obvious if they were fake. You can even see the score summary for any service's score.

I'm a one-person team, dedicating my free time to this project. I hope to keep doing so for many more years. Again, thank you for being part of this.

Kubernetes and Linux Swap: A Practical Perspective

After reviewing kernel documentation on swap management (e.g., Linux Swap Management), KEP-2400 (Kubernetes Node Memory Swap Support), and community discussions like this post on ServerFault, it's clear that the topic of swap usage in modern systems—especially Kubernetes environments—is nuanced and often contentious. Here's a practical synthesis of the discussion.

---

The Rationale for Disabling Swap

We disable SWAP on our Linux servers to ensure stable and predictable performance by relying on available RAM, avoiding the performance degradation and unnecessary I/O caused by SWAP usage. If an application runs out of memory, it’s usually due to insufficient RAM allocation or a memory leak, and enabling SWAP only worsens performance for other applications. It's more efficient to let a leaking app restart than to rely on SWAP to prevent OOM crashes.

With modern platforms like Kubernetes, memory requests and limits are enforced, ensuring apps use only the RAM allocated to them, while avoiding overcommitment to prevent resource exhaustion.

Additionally, disabling swap may protect data from data remanence attacks, where sensitive information could potentially be recovered from the swap space even after a process terminates.

---

Theoretical Capability vs. Practical Deployment

Linux provides a powerful and flexible memory subsystem. With proper tuning (e.g., swappiness, memory pinning, cgroups), it's technically possible to make swap usage efficient and targeted. Seasoned sysadmins often argue that disabling swap entirely is a lazy shortcut—an avoidance of learning how to use the tools properly.

But Kubernetes is not a traditional system. It's an orchestrated environment that favors predictability, fail-fast behavior, and clear isolation between workloads. Within this model:

• Memory requests and limits are declared explicitly.
• The scheduler makes decisions based on RAM availability, not total virtual memory (RAM + swap).
• Swap introduces non-deterministic performance characteristics that conflict with Kubernetes' goals.

So while the kernel supports intelligent swap usage, Kubernetes intentionally sidesteps that complexity.

---

Why Disable Swap in Kubernetes?

1. Deterministic Failure > Degraded Performance\ If a pod exceeds its memory allocation, it should fail fast — not get throttled into slow oblivion due to swap. This behavior surfaces bugs (like memory leaks or poor sizing) early.

2. Transparency & Observability\ With swap disabled, memory issues are clearer to diagnose. Swap obfuscates root causes and can make a healthy-looking node behave erratically.

3. Performance Consistency\ Swap causes I/O overhead. One noisy pod using swap can impact unrelated workloads on the same node — even if they’re within their resource limits.

4. Kubernetes Doesn’t Manage Swap Well\ Kubelet has historically lacked intelligence around swap. As of today, Kubernetes still doesn't support swap-aware scheduling or per-container swap control.

5. Statelessness is the Norm\ Most containerized workloads are designed to be ephemeral. Restarting a pod is usually preferable to letting it hang in a degraded state.

---

"But Swap Can Be Useful..."

Yes — for certain workloads (e.g., in-memory databases, caching layers, legacy systems), there may be valid reasons to keep swap enabled. In such cases, you'd need:

• Fine-tuned vm.swappiness
• Memory pinning and cgroup-based control
• Swap-aware monitoring and alerting
• Custom kubelet/systemd integration

That's possible, but not standard practice — and for good reason.

---

Future Considerations

Recent Kubernetes releases have introduced experimental swap support via KEP-2400. While this provides more flexibility for advanced use cases — particularly Burstable QoS pods on cgroupsv2 — swap remains disabled by default and is not generally recommended for production workloads unless carefully planned. The rationale outlined in this article remains applicable to most Kubernetes operators, especially in multi-tenant and performance-sensitive environments.

Even the Kubernetes maintainers acknowledge the inherent trade-offs of enabling swap. As noted in KEP-2400's Risks and Mitigations section, swap introduces unpredictability, can severely degrade performance compared to RAM, and complicates Kubernetes' resource accounting — increasing the risk of noisy neighbors and unexpected scheduling behavior.

Some argue that with emerging technologies like non-volatile memory (e.g., Intel Optane/XPoint), swap may become viable again. These systems promise near-RAM speed with large capacity, offering hybrid memory models. But these are not widely deployed or supported in mainstream Kubernetes environments yet.

---

Conclusion

Disabling swap in Kubernetes is not a lazy hack — it’s a strategic tradeoff. It improves transparency, predictability, and system integrity in multi-tenant, containerized environments. While the kernel allows for more advanced configurations, Kubernetes intentionally simplifies memory handling for the sake of reliability.

If we want to revisit swap usage, it should come with serious planning: proper instrumentation, swap-aware observability, and potentially upstream K8s improvements. Until then, disabling swap remains the sane default.

Warning: This piece contains a conversation about difficult topics. Please proceed with caution.

TL;DR please educate your children about online safety.

Julian Assange wrote in his 2012 book Cypherpunks, “This book is not a manifesto. There isn’t time for that. This book is a warning.” I read it a few times over the past summer. Those opening lines definitely stood out to me. I wish we had listened back then. He saw something about the internet that few had the ability to see. There are some individuals who are so close to a topic that when they speak, it’s difficult for others who aren’t steeped in it to visualize what they’re talking about. I didn’t read the book until more recently. If I had read it when it came out, it probably would have sounded like an unknown foreign language to me. Today it makes more sense.

This isn’t a manifesto. This isn’t a book. There is no time for that. It’s a warning and a possible solution from a desperate and determined survivor advocate who has been pulling and unraveling a thread for a few years. At times, I feel too close to this topic to make any sense trying to convey my pathway to my conclusions or thoughts to the general public. My hope is that if nothing else, I can convey my sense of urgency while writing this. This piece is a watchman’s warning.

When a child steps online, they are walking into a new world. A new reality. When you hand a child the internet, you are handing them possibilities—good, bad, and ugly. This is a conversation about lowering the potential of negative outcomes of stepping into that new world and how I came to these conclusions. I constantly compare the internet to the road. You wouldn’t let a young child run out into the road with no guidance or safety precautions. When you hand a child the internet without any type of guidance or safety measures, you are allowing them to play in rush hour, oncoming traffic. “Look left, look right for cars before crossing.” We almost all have been taught that as children. What are we taught as humans about safety before stepping into a completely different reality like the internet? Very little.

I could never really figure out why many folks in tech, privacy rights activists, and hackers seemed so cold to me while talking about online child sexual exploitation. I always figured that as a survivor advocate for those affected by these crimes, that specific, skilled group of individuals would be very welcoming and easy to talk to about such serious topics. I actually had one hacker laugh in my face when I brought it up while I was looking for answers. I thought maybe this individual thought I was accusing them of something I wasn’t, so I felt bad for asking. I was constantly extremely disappointed and would ask myself, “Why don’t they care? What could I say to make them care more? What could I say to make them understand the crisis and the level of suffering that happens as a result of the problem?”

I have been serving minor survivors of online child sexual exploitation for years. My first case serving a survivor of this specific crime was in 2018—a 13-year-old girl sexually exploited by a serial predator on Snapchat. That was my first glimpse into this side of the internet. I won a national award for serving the minor survivors of Twitter in 2023, but I had been working on that specific project for a few years. I was nominated by a lawyer representing two survivors in a legal battle against the platform. I’ve never really spoken about this before, but at the time it was a choice for me between fighting Snapchat or Twitter. I chose Twitter—or rather, Twitter chose me. I heard about the story of John Doe #1 and John Doe #2, and I was so unbelievably broken over it that I went to war for multiple years. I was and still am royally pissed about that case. As far as I was concerned, the John Doe #1 case proved that whatever was going on with corporate tech social media was so out of control that I didn’t have time to wait, so I got to work. It was reading the messages that John Doe #1 sent to Twitter begging them to remove his sexual exploitation that broke me. He was a child begging adults to do something. A passion for justice and protecting kids makes you do wild things. I was desperate to find answers about what happened and searched for solutions. In the end, the platform Twitter was purchased. During the acquisition, I just asked Mr. Musk nicely to prioritize the issue of detection and removal of child sexual exploitation without violating digital privacy rights or eroding end-to-end encryption. Elon thanked me multiple times during the acquisition, made some changes, and I was thanked by others on the survivors’ side as well.

I still feel that even with the progress made, I really just scratched the surface with Twitter, now X. I left that passion project when I did for a few reasons. I wanted to give new leadership time to tackle the issue. Elon Musk made big promises that I knew would take a while to fulfill, but mostly I had been watching global legislation transpire around the issue, and frankly, the governments are willing to go much further with X and the rest of corporate tech than I ever would. My work begging Twitter to make changes with easier reporting of content, detection, and removal of child sexual exploitation material—without violating privacy rights or eroding end-to-end encryption—and advocating for the minor survivors of the platform went as far as my principles would have allowed. I’m grateful for that experience. I was still left with a nagging question: “How did things get so bad with Twitter where the John Doe #1 and John Doe #2 case was able to happen in the first place?” I decided to keep looking for answers. I decided to keep pulling the thread.

I never worked for Twitter. This is often confusing for folks. I will say that despite being disappointed in the platform’s leadership at times, I loved Twitter. I saw and still see its value. I definitely love the survivors of the platform, but I also loved the platform. I was a champion of the platform’s ability to give folks from virtually around the globe an opportunity to speak and be heard.

I want to be clear that John Doe #1 really is my why. He is the inspiration. I am writing this because of him. He represents so many globally, and I’m still inspired by his bravery. One child’s voice begging adults to do something—I’m an adult, I heard him. I’d go to war a thousand more lifetimes for that young man, and I don’t even know his name. Fighting has been personally dark at times; I’m not even going to try to sugarcoat it, but it has been worth it.

The data surrounding the very real crime of online child sexual exploitation is available to the public online at any time for anyone to see. I’d encourage you to go look at the data for yourself. I believe in encouraging folks to check multiple sources so that you understand the full picture. If you are uncomfortable just searching around the internet for information about this topic, use the terms “CSAM,” “CSEM,” “SG-CSEM,” or “AI Generated CSAM.” The numbers don’t lie—it’s a nightmare that’s out of control. It’s a big business. The demand is high, and unfortunately, business is booming. Organizations collect the data, tech companies often post their data, governments report frequently, and the corporate press has covered a decent portion of the conversation, so I’m sure you can find a source that you trust.

Technology is changing rapidly, which is great for innovation as a whole but horrible for the crime of online child sexual exploitation. Those wishing to exploit the vulnerable seem to be adapting to each technological change with ease. The governments are so far behind with tackling these issues that as I’m typing this, it’s borderline irrelevant to even include them while speaking about the crime or potential solutions. Technology is changing too rapidly, and their old, broken systems can’t even dare to keep up. Think of it like the governments’ “War on Drugs.” Drugs won. In this case as well, the governments are not winning. The governments are talking about maybe having a meeting on potentially maybe having legislation around the crimes. The time to have that meeting would have been many years ago. I’m not advocating for governments to legislate our way out of this. I’m on the side of educating and innovating our way out of this.

I have been clear while advocating for the minor survivors of corporate tech platforms that I would not advocate for any solution to the crime that would violate digital privacy rights or erode end-to-end encryption. That has been a personal moral position that I was unwilling to budge on. This is an extremely unpopular and borderline nonexistent position in the anti-human trafficking movement and online child protection space. I’m often fearful that I’m wrong about this. I have always thought that a better pathway forward would have been to incentivize innovation for detection and removal of content. I had no previous exposure to privacy rights activists or Cypherpunks—actually, I came to that conclusion by listening to the voices of MENA region political dissidents and human rights activists. After developing relationships with human rights activists from around the globe, I realized how important privacy rights and encryption are for those who need it most globally. I was simply unwilling to give more power, control, and opportunities for mass surveillance to big abusers like governments wishing to enslave entire nations and untrustworthy corporate tech companies to potentially end some portion of abuses online. On top of all of it, it has been clear to me for years that all potential solutions outside of violating digital privacy rights to detect and remove child sexual exploitation online have not yet been explored aggressively. I’ve been disappointed that there hasn’t been more of a conversation around preventing the crime from happening in the first place.

What has been tried is mass surveillance. In China, they are currently under mass surveillance both online and offline, and their behaviors are attached to a social credit score. Unfortunately, even on state-run and controlled social media platforms, they still have child sexual exploitation and abuse imagery pop up along with other crimes and human rights violations. They also have a thriving black market online due to the oppression from the state. In other words, even an entire loss of freedom and privacy cannot end the sexual exploitation of children online. It’s been tried. There is no reason to repeat this method.

It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out why I always felt a slight coldness from those in tech and privacy-minded individuals about the topic of child sexual exploitation online. I didn’t have any clue about the “Four Horsemen of the Infocalypse.” This is a term coined by Timothy C. May in 1988. I would have been a child myself when he first said it. I actually laughed at myself when I heard the phrase for the first time. I finally got it. The Cypherpunks weren’t wrong about that topic. They were so spot on that it is borderline uncomfortable. I was mad at first that they knew that early during the birth of the internet that this issue would arise and didn’t address it. Then I got over it because I realized that it wasn’t their job. Their job was—is—to write code. Their job wasn’t to be involved and loving parents or survivor advocates. Their job wasn’t to educate children on internet safety or raise awareness; their job was to write code.

They knew that child sexual abuse material would be shared on the internet. They said what would happen—not in a gleeful way, but a prediction. Then it happened.

I equate it now to a concrete company laying down a road. As you’re pouring the concrete, you can say to yourself, “A terrorist might travel down this road to go kill many, and on the flip side, a beautiful child can be born in an ambulance on this road.” Who or what travels down the road is not their responsibility—they are just supposed to lay the concrete. I’d never go to a concrete pourer and ask them to solve terrorism that travels down roads. Under the current system, law enforcement should stop terrorists before they even make it to the road. The solution to this specific problem is not to treat everyone on the road like a terrorist or to not build the road.

So I understand the perceived coldness from those in tech. Not only was it not their job, but bringing up the topic was seen as the equivalent of asking a free person if they wanted to discuss one of the four topics—child abusers, terrorists, drug dealers, intellectual property pirates, etc.—that would usher in digital authoritarianism for all who are online globally.

Privacy rights advocates and groups have put up a good fight. They stood by their principles. Unfortunately, when it comes to corporate tech, I believe that the issue of privacy is almost a complete lost cause at this point. It’s still worth pushing back, but ultimately, it is a losing battle—a ticking time bomb.

I do think that corporate tech providers could have slowed down the inevitable loss of privacy at the hands of the state by prioritizing the detection and removal of CSAM when they all started online. I believe it would have bought some time, fewer would have been traumatized by that specific crime, and I do believe that it could have slowed down the demand for content. If I think too much about that, I’ll go insane, so I try to push the “if maybes” aside, but never knowing if it could have been handled differently will forever haunt me. At night when it’s quiet, I wonder what I would have done differently if given the opportunity. I’ll probably never know how much corporate tech knew and ignored in the hopes that it would go away while the problem continued to get worse. They had different priorities. The most voiceless and vulnerable exploited on corporate tech never had much of a voice, so corporate tech providers didn’t receive very much pushback.

Now I’m about to say something really wild, and you can call me whatever you want to call me, but I’m going to say what I believe to be true. I believe that the governments are either so incompetent that they allowed the proliferation of CSAM online, or they knowingly allowed the problem to fester long enough to have an excuse to violate privacy rights and erode end-to-end encryption. The US government could have seized the corporate tech providers over CSAM, but I believe that they were so useful as a propaganda arm for the regimes that they allowed them to continue virtually unscathed.

That season is done now, and the governments are making the issue a priority. It will come at a high cost. Privacy on corporate tech providers is virtually done as I’m typing this. It feels like a death rattle. I’m not particularly sure that we had much digital privacy to begin with, but the illusion of a veil of privacy feels gone.

To make matters slightly more complex, it would be hard to convince me that once AI really gets going, digital privacy will exist at all.

I believe that there should be a conversation shift to preserving freedoms and human rights in a post-privacy society.

I don’t want to get locked up because AI predicted a nasty post online from me about the government. I’m not a doomer about AI—I’m just going to roll with it personally. I’m looking forward to the positive changes that will be brought forth by AI. I see it as inevitable. A bit of privacy was helpful while it lasted. Please keep fighting to preserve what is left of privacy either way because I could be wrong about all of this.

On the topic of AI, the addition of AI to the horrific crime of child sexual abuse material and child sexual exploitation in multiple ways so far has been devastating. It’s currently out of control. The genie is out of the bottle. I am hopeful that innovation will get us humans out of this, but I’m not sure how or how long it will take. We must be extremely cautious around AI legislation. It should not be illegal to innovate even if some bad comes with the good. I don’t trust that the governments are equipped to decide the best pathway forward for AI. Source: the entire history of the government.

I have been personally negatively impacted by AI-generated content. Every few days, I get another alert that I’m featured again in what’s called “deep fake pornography” without my consent. I’m not happy about it, but what pains me the most is the thought that for a period of time down the road, many globally will experience what myself and others are experiencing now by being digitally sexually abused in this way. If you have ever had your picture taken and posted online, you are also at risk of being exploited in this way. Your child’s image can be used as well, unfortunately, and this is just the beginning of this particular nightmare. It will move to more realistic interpretations of sexual behaviors as technology improves. I have no brave words of wisdom about how to deal with that emotionally. I do have hope that innovation will save the day around this specific issue. I’m nervous that everyone online will have to ID verify due to this issue. I see that as one possible outcome that could help to prevent one problem but inadvertently cause more problems, especially for those living under authoritarian regimes or anyone who needs to remain anonymous online. A zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) would probably be the best solution to these issues. There are some survivors of violence and/or sexual trauma who need to remain anonymous online for various reasons. There are survivor stories available online of those who have been abused in this way. I’d encourage you seek out and listen to their stories.

There have been periods of time recently where I hesitate to say anything at all because more than likely AI will cover most of my concerns about education, awareness, prevention, detection, and removal of child sexual exploitation online, etc.

Unfortunately, some of the most pressing issues we’ve seen online over the last few years come in the form of “sextortion.” Self-generated child sexual exploitation (SG-CSEM) numbers are continuing to be terrifying. I’d strongly encourage that you look into sextortion data. AI + sextortion is also a huge concern. The perpetrators are using the non-sexually explicit images of children and putting their likeness on AI-generated child sexual exploitation content and extorting money, more imagery, or both from minors online. It’s like a million nightmares wrapped into one. The wild part is that these issues will only get more pervasive because technology is harnessed to perpetuate horror at a scale unimaginable to a human mind.

Even if you banned phones and the internet or tried to prevent children from accessing the internet, it wouldn’t solve it. Child sexual exploitation will still be with us until as a society we start to prevent the crime before it happens. That is the only human way out right now.

There is no reset button on the internet, but if I could go back, I’d tell survivor advocates to heed the warnings of the early internet builders and to start education and awareness campaigns designed to prevent as much online child sexual exploitation as possible. The internet and technology moved quickly, and I don’t believe that society ever really caught up. We live in a world where a child can be groomed by a predator in their own home while sitting on a couch next to their parents watching TV. We weren’t ready as a species to tackle the fast-paced algorithms and dangers online. It happened too quickly for parents to catch up. How can you parent for the ever-changing digital world unless you are constantly aware of the dangers?

I don’t think that the internet is inherently bad. I believe that it can be a powerful tool for freedom and resistance. I’ve spoken a lot about the bad online, but there is beauty as well. We often discuss how victims and survivors are abused online; we rarely discuss the fact that countless survivors around the globe have been able to share their experiences, strength, hope, as well as provide resources to the vulnerable. I do question if giving any government or tech company access to censorship, surveillance, etc., online in the name of serving survivors might not actually impact a portion of survivors negatively. There are a fair amount of survivors with powerful abusers protected by governments and the corporate press. If a survivor cannot speak to the press about their abuse, the only place they can go is online, directly or indirectly through an independent journalist who also risks being censored. This scenario isn’t hard to imagine—it already happened in China. During #MeToo, a survivor in China wanted to post their story. The government censored the post, so the survivor put their story on the blockchain. I’m excited that the survivor was creative and brave, but it’s terrifying to think that we live in a world where that situation is a necessity.

I believe that the future for many survivors sharing their stories globally will be on completely censorship-resistant and decentralized protocols. This thought in particular gives me hope. When we listen to the experiences of a diverse group of survivors, we can start to understand potential solutions to preventing the crimes from happening in the first place.

My heart is broken over the gut-wrenching stories of survivors sexually exploited online. Every time I hear the story of a survivor, I do think to myself quietly, “What could have prevented this from happening in the first place?” My heart is with survivors.

My head, on the other hand, is full of the understanding that the internet should remain free. The free flow of information should not be stopped. My mind is with the innocent citizens around the globe that deserve freedom both online and offline.

The problem is that governments don’t only want to censor illegal content that violates human rights—they create legislation that is so broad that it can impact speech and privacy of all. “Don’t you care about the kids?” Yes, I do. I do so much that I’m invested in finding solutions. I also care about all citizens around the globe that deserve an opportunity to live free from a mass surveillance society. If terrorism happens online, I should not be punished by losing my freedom. If drugs are sold online, I should not be punished. I’m not an abuser, I’m not a terrorist, and I don’t engage in illegal behaviors. I refuse to lose freedom because of others’ bad behaviors online.

I want to be clear that on a long enough timeline, the governments will decide that they can be better parents/caregivers than you can if something isn’t done to stop minors from being sexually exploited online. The price will be a complete loss of anonymity, privacy, free speech, and freedom of religion online. I find it rather insulting that governments think they’re better equipped to raise children than parents and caretakers.

So we can’t go backwards—all that we can do is go forward. Those who want to have freedom will find technology to facilitate their liberation. This will lead many over time to decentralized and open protocols. So as far as I’m concerned, this does solve a few of my worries—those who need, want, and deserve to speak freely online will have the opportunity in most countries—but what about online child sexual exploitation?

When I popped up around the decentralized space, I was met with the fear of censorship. I’m not here to censor you. I don’t write code. I couldn’t censor anyone or any piece of content even if I wanted to across the internet, no matter how depraved. I don’t have the skills to do that.

I’m here to start a conversation. Freedom comes at a cost. You must always fight for and protect your freedom. I can’t speak about protecting yourself from all of the Four Horsemen because I simply don’t know the topics well enough, but I can speak about this one topic.

If there was a shortcut to ending online child sexual exploitation, I would have found it by now. There isn’t one right now. I believe that education is the only pathway forward to preventing the crime of online child sexual exploitation for future generations.

I propose a yearly education course for every child of all school ages, taught as a standard part of the curriculum. Ideally, parents/caregivers would be involved in the education/learning process.

Course: - The creation of the internet and computers - The fight for cryptography - The tech supply chain from the ground up (example: human rights violations in the supply chain) - Corporate tech - Freedom tech - Data privacy - Digital privacy rights - AI (history-current) - Online safety (predators, scams, catfishing, extortion) - Bitcoin - Laws - How to deal with online hate and harassment - Information on who to contact if you are being abused online or offline - Algorithms - How to seek out the truth about news, etc., online

The parents/caregivers, homeschoolers, unschoolers, and those working to create decentralized parallel societies have been an inspiration while writing this, but my hope is that all children would learn this course, even in government ran schools. Ideally, parents would teach this to their own children.

The decentralized space doesn’t want child sexual exploitation to thrive. Here’s the deal: there has to be a strong prevention effort in order to protect the next generation. The internet isn’t going anywhere, predators aren’t going anywhere, and I’m not down to let anyone have the opportunity to prove that there is a need for more government. I don’t believe that the government should act as parents. The governments have had a chance to attempt to stop online child sexual exploitation, and they didn’t do it. Can we try a different pathway forward?

I’d like to put myself out of a job. I don’t want to ever hear another story like John Doe #1 ever again. This will require work. I’ve often called online child sexual exploitation the lynchpin for the internet. It’s time to arm generations of children with knowledge and tools. I can’t do this alone.

Individuals have fought so that I could have freedom online. I want to fight to protect it. I don’t want child predators to give the government any opportunity to take away freedom. Decentralized spaces are as close to a reset as we’ll get with the opportunity to do it right from the start. Start the youth off correctly by preventing potential hazards to the best of your ability.

The good news is anyone can work on this! I’d encourage you to take it and run with it. I added the additional education about the history of the internet to make the course more educational and fun. Instead of cleaning up generations of destroyed lives due to online sexual exploitation, perhaps this could inspire generations of those who will build our futures. Perhaps if the youth is armed with knowledge, they can create more tools to prevent the crime.

This one solution that I’m suggesting can be done on an individual level or on a larger scale. It should be adjusted depending on age, learning style, etc. It should be fun and playful.

This solution does not address abuse in the home or some of the root causes of offline child sexual exploitation. My hope is that it could lead to some survivors experiencing abuse in the home an opportunity to disclose with a trusted adult. The purpose for this solution is to prevent the crime of online child sexual exploitation before it occurs and to arm the youth with the tools to contact safe adults if and when it happens.

In closing, I went to hell a few times so that you didn’t have to. I spoke to the mothers of survivors of minors sexually exploited online—their tears could fill rivers. I’ve spoken with political dissidents who yearned to be free from authoritarian surveillance states. The only balance that I’ve found is freedom online for citizens around the globe and prevention from the dangers of that for the youth. Don’t slow down innovation and freedom. Educate, prepare, adapt, and look for solutions.

I’m not perfect and I’m sure that there are errors in this piece. I hope that you find them and it starts a conversation.

Knapp 20 Millionen Menschen im Land sind heute in Deutschland in Genossenschaften tätig, welche eine Alternative zum nicht zukunftsfähigen Abwärtsstrudel von global agierenden Wirtschafts- und Finanzplayern mit ihren Kriegs- und Krisenplänen darstellen. Und kaum bemerkt findet derzeit ein stürmisches Wachstum der Genossenschaftsbewegung statt.

Nach Informationen des Deutschen Genossenschafts- und Raiffeisenverbandes stieg während der Multikrise der vergangenen 5 Jahre im Laufe nur einen Jahres (vom Jahresbericht 2023 zum Jahresbericht 2024) die Zahl der Energiegenossenschaften von 877 auf 951 an, die von Konsum- und Dienstleistungsgenossenschaften von 440 auf 510 und die von gewerblichen Genossenschaften von 1.372 auf 1.419.

Wer das Gejammer von „Wirtschaftsweisen“ über zu geringe Wachstumsraten bei ethisch fragwürdigen Indikatoren einer wünschenswerten Gesellschaft wie dem BIP (Brutto-Inland-Produkt) im Ohr hat, könnte bereits beim Überschlagen des Anstiegs bei den oben genannten Zahlen die These gestützt sehen, dass der Strukturwandel hin zur Regionalgesellschaft bereits in vollem Gang ist.

Wenn Sie sich für die Aufbruchstimmung und den frischen Wind insbesondere bei den neu gegründeten Genossenschaften interessieren, schauen sie gern einmal auf die Plattform einer jungen Genossenschaft, welche „Menschlich Wirtschaften“ in ihrer Satzung zum Ziel erklärt hat.

Und sollten Sie Mitte Juni eine Reise an die Ostsee attraktiv finden, kommen Sie gern zum Genossenschaftstreffen vom 13. bis 15. Juni 2025 in Poppendorf bei Rostock. Dort dürfen Sie nicht nur einen Einblick in die aktuellen Baustellen und ersten Erfolge unserer bundesweit aktiven Genossenschaft erwarten, sondern auch ein buntes Kulturprogramm im Rahmen eines kleinen Festivals und ein Zusammensein mit Pionieren der Regionalgesellschaft!

Dies ist der Anfang einer Serie, die ich schreiben möchte. Sie handelt von etwas, das wir verloren haben, und das dennoch, in Teilen, in uns weiterlebt.

Wen meine ich mit dem “wir”? Das Wir kann schnell problematisch werden, wenn man meint für andere zu sprechen, und dann erkennen muss, falsche Annahmen gemacht zu haben.

Als ich diesen Satz schrieb, hatte ich diejenigen von uns im Hinterkopf, die in einer westlichen Industriegesellschaft aufgewachsen sind. Der Verlust ist etwas, das ich spüre, und dem reale Geschehnisse mit zugrunde liegen. Eine Art Sehnsucht wird stärker, wenn ich von bestimmten Ereignissen lese, bei denen Menschen gewaltsam von dem getrennt wurden, das sie bis dahin gehalten und ernährt hatte: Dem Land, zu dem sie gehörten.

---

Worüber ich schreiben möchte, das sind die Commons. Ein weites Feld. Commons, das kann Allmende heißen oder Gemeingüter.

Es geht dabei aber nicht nur um das, was gemeinsam genutzt wird, sondern auch um das Soziale darum herum — wie sich eine Gruppe selbst organisiert, und dabei den Mitgliedern und dem Gemeingut gerecht wird

Es ist eines jener Konzepte, denen mit einer einfachen Definition nicht gut gedient ist. Es geht eher darum, ein Gefühl dafür zu bekommen, sich ihm anzunähern, eine Beziehung aufzubauen. Wenn das gelingt, dann ist man an einer Art neuem Ort, einer neuen (und gleichzeitig alten) Sichtweise angekommen, die man nicht mehr verliert. Und gleichzeitig Teil einer Gemeinschaft geworden.

Zum Commons gehören Personen und das Commoning. Subjekte und ein Verb. Hinzu kommen die Resourcen, die gemeinsam betreut werden. Also Subjekt, Verb, Objekt. Hilfreicher ist es, die Ressourcen ebenfalls als Subjekte zu sehen. Beim ursprünglichen Commons stand der Commoner in einer partnerschaftlichen Beziehung zu dem Land, das seine Lebensgrundlage war. [1]

Die Commons bilden ein Gegengewicht zu Staat und Privatwirtschaft. Sie funktionieren nach einer anderen Logik, und wirken der kapitalistischen Forderung nach exponentiellem Wachstum, und der Vereinzelung der Menschen in der modernen Gesellschaft entgegen.

Mein Vorhaben ist, alle ein bis zwei Wochen einen kurzen Aufsatz zu schreiben, der einen Aspekt der Commons beleuchtet. Der deutsche Wikipedia-Eintrag gibt sehr gut wieder, wie vielschichtig das Thema ist.

Es könnte dabei in folgende Richtungen gehen:

• Geschichte der Enclosures (Einhegungen)
• Kämpfe indigener Kulturen und anarchischer Gemeinschaften
• Bemühungen, Commons und das Commoning in unserer westlichen Kulturn wiederzubeleben und zu fördern
• Das kollektive Trauma, das mit dem Verlust von Gemeingütern, insbesondere Land, verbunden ist
• Wie sich dies in jedem Einzelnen widerspiegelt

Ich schreibe dabei auch, um mir selbst über bestimmte Dinge klar zu werden. Ich bin mit zwei Commons-Bewegungen im Südwesten Englands verbunden, und diese Beziehungen sind nicht immer ganz einfach. Und doch würde ich mich nicht davon lösen wollen.

---

Warum schrieb ich davon, dass wir etwas verloren haben, wenn es die Commons doch gibt?

Eine bestimmte Lebensweise, die freien Zugang zu Wald und Acker- und Weideland garantierte, um sich zu ernähren und Holz und Torf zu sammeln, wurde mit den Einhegungen nach und nach zerstört. Während das Leben sicher sehr hart war — und sich zuvor innerhalb der Feudalherrschaft abspielte — sorgten über lange Zeit gewachsene Traditionen und Bräuche dafür, dass Menschen sich zugehörig und versorgt fühlten. Diese Art des Aufgehobenseins ging verloren, als die Landbewohner vertrieben wurden und sich in den Städten als Lohnarbeiter verdingen oder auswandern mussten.

Vor kurzem habe ich ein Buch namens The Traumatised Society gelesen, in dem Fred Harrison das Schicksal des englischen Naturdichters John Clare schildert, der direkt miterlebte, wie das Land eingegrenzt wurde und darüber verzweifelte. Besonders eindrücklich schreibt auch Alastair McIntosh in dem insgesamt sehr erstaunlichen und magischen Buch Soil and Soul über die schottische Version der Einhegungen, die Highland Clearances.

Solche Schilderungen lassen ahnen, wie gewaltsam die Menschen von ihrer früheren Lebensweise getrennt wurden. Später gingen England und andere europäische Mächte in ihren Kolonien ähnlich vor. Die erste Kolonisierung war die der eigenen Bevölkerung. Ich glaube, dass diese Vorgänge uns kollektiv geprägt haben, und wir die Commons brauchen, um den Folgen entgegenzuwirken.

Diese haben aber auch in ihren neueren Formen keinen leichten Stand.

Wie Silke Helfrich schrieb: “Commons existieren nicht in einer heilen Welt, sondern in einer commons-unfreundlichen Umgebung. Es ist daher wichtig, dass Commoners sich bewusst sind, welchen Schatz sie in den Händen halten, um ihn bewahren und entfalten zu können.”

Demnächst mehr...

I want to see Nostr succeed. If you can think of a way I can help make that happen, I’m open to it. I’d like your suggestions.

My schedule’s shifting soon, and I could volunteer a few hours a week to a Nostr project. I won’t have more total time, but how I use it will change.

Why help? I care about freedom. Nostr’s one of the most powerful freedom tools I’ve seen in my lifetime. If I believe that, I should act on it.

I don’t care about money or sats. I’m not rich, I don’t have extra cash. That doesn’t drive me—freedom does. I’m volunteering, not asking for pay.

I’m not here for clout. I’ve had enough spotlight in my life; it doesn’t move me. If I wanted clout, I’d be on Twitter dropping basic takes. Clout’s easy. Freedom’s hard. I’d rather help anonymously. No speaking at events—small meetups are cool for the vibe, but big conferences? Not my thing. I’ll never hit a huge Bitcoin conference. It’s just not my scene.

That said, I could be convinced to step up if it’d really boost Nostr—as long as it’s legal and gets results.

In this space, I’d watch for social engineering. I watch out for it. I’m not here to make friends, just to help. No shade—you all seem great—but I’ve got a full life and awesome friends irl. I don’t need your crew or to be online cool. Connect anonymously if you want; I’d encourage it.

I’m sick of watching other social media alternatives grow while Nostr kinda stalls. I could trash-talk, but I’d rather do something useful.

Skills? I’m good at spotting social media problems and finding possible solutions. I won’t overhype myself—that’s weird—but if you’re responding, you probably see something in me. Perhaps you see something that I don’t see in myself.

If you need help now or later with Nostr projects, reach out. Nostr only—nothing else. Anonymous contact’s fine. Even just a suggestion on how I can pitch in, no project attached, works too. 💜

Creeps or harassment will get blocked or I’ll nuke my simplex code if it becomes a problem.

https://simplex.chat/contact#/?v=2-4&smp=smp%3A%2F%2FSkIkI6EPd2D63F4xFKfHk7I1UGZVNn6k1QWZ5rcyr6w%3D%40smp9.simplex.im%2FbI99B3KuYduH8jDr9ZwyhcSxm2UuR7j0%23%2F%3Fv%3D1-2%26dh%3DMCowBQYDK2VuAyEAS9C-zPzqW41PKySfPCEizcXb1QCus6AyDkTTjfyMIRM%253D%26srv%3Djssqzccmrcws6bhmn77vgmhfjmhwlyr3u7puw4erkyoosywgl67slqqd.onion

Money can be complicated. You work hard, save diligently, and try to make smart choices. But when it comes to long-term financial security, is that enough? That’s where wealth management services come in. They help you plan, invest, and secure your financial future. But are they the right fit for you?

Let’s find out.

What Is Wealth Management?

Wealth management isn’t just about investing. It’s about creating a strategy that covers all aspects of your financial life—retirement, taxes, healthcare, and even the legacy you want to leave behind.

At Passive Capital Management, wealth management is designed to help you navigate life’s financial twists and turns with confidence. Whether you’re planning for retirement, growing your assets, or protecting what you’ve built, a structured approach can make all the difference.

Do You Need Wealth Management?

Not everyone needs a wealth manager. But if you answer “yes” to any of these questions, it might be time to consider it:

• Do you worry about outliving your retirement savings?
• Are you unsure how to structure your investments for long-term security?
• Do you want a plan that adapts as your life changes?
• Are tax implications of your income and investments confusing?
• Do you want to leave behind a financial legacy for your family?

If any of these concerns sound familiar, a wealth management service could help you create a roadmap for financial success.

The Key Benefits of Wealth Management

1. Retirement Planning: More Than Just Saving

Retirement isn’t just about putting money aside. It’s about ensuring you can live comfortably once your regular income stops. Passive Capital Management helps clients create a sustainable retirement strategy, ensuring they have enough to cover daily expenses, healthcare, and even the fun things—like travel or hobbies.

By assessing income sources like pensions, social security, and investments, they build a tailored plan that matches your lifestyle and long-term goals.

2. Investment Strategies: Making Your Money Work for You

Investing can feel overwhelming. Stocks, bonds, real estate—where do you even begin? Wealth management helps you make informed choices based on your risk tolerance, time horizon, and financial objectives.

Rather than chasing trends, a well-planned investment strategy focuses on steady, long-term growth while minimizing unnecessary risks.

3. Tax Planning: Keeping More of What You Earn

No one likes to pay more taxes than necessary. But without a strategy, you might be doing just that.

Wealth managers help structure your income, retirement withdrawals, and investments in a tax-efficient way. Whether it's maximizing tax-free accounts or minimizing liabilities, they ensure you keep more of what you’ve earned.

4. Healthcare and Long-Term Care Planning

As you age, healthcare becomes a bigger concern—and a bigger expense. Without proper planning, medical costs can quickly eat into your savings.

A solid financial plan includes strategies to manage these costs, whether through insurance, savings, or investment strategies. This way, you get the care you need without financial stress.

5. Estate and Legacy Planning

Do you want to leave something behind for your loved ones? Wealth management ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes, minimizing tax burdens and avoiding unnecessary legal complications.

Whether you’re thinking about passing on wealth to family or contributing to a cause you care about, having a plan in place ensures your money makes the impact you want.

When Should You Start?

The best time to start planning? Yesterday. The second-best time? Today.

Wealth management isn’t just for retirees or the ultra-rich. It’s for anyone who wants financial security and a clear plan for the future. Whether you’re in your 30s and just starting to build wealth or in your 50s preparing for retirement, having expert guidance can help you make smarter financial decisions.

Final Thoughts: Is It Right for You?

If you want peace of mind about your financial future, wealth management might be a great fit. It helps you grow your money, protect your assets, and ensure a comfortable life—now and in the years to come.

At Passive Capital Management, the goal is simple: to help you achieve financial freedom with confidence. If that sounds like something you want, it might be time to explore how wealth management can work for you.

„Triff niemals deine Idole“ heißt ein gängiger Ratschlag. In gewendeten Zeiten stehen zu dem die Werte auf dem Kopf – und manche Künstler mit ihnen. Die Worte, die aus manch ihrer Mündern kommen, wirken, als hätte eine fremde Hand sie auf deren Zunge gelegt.

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.

Ich hörte einem jungen Autor zu, der eine Idee beschrieb, die ihn so sehr begeisterte, dass er die Nacht zuvor nicht schlafen konnte. Und ich erinnerte mich daran, wie ich mich früher – vor Gaza – über das Schreiben freuen konnte. Dieses Gefühl habe ich seit 2023 nicht mehr gespürt.

Ich beklage mich nicht und bemitleide mich auch nicht selbst, ich stelle einfach fest, wie unglaublich düster und finster die Welt in dieser schrecklichen Zeit geworden ist. Es wäre seltsam und ungesund, wenn ich in den letzten anderthalb Jahren Freude an meiner Arbeit gehabt hätte. Diese Dinge sollen sich nicht gut anfühlen. Nicht, wenn man wirklich hinschaut und ehrlich zu sich selbst ist in dem, was man sieht.

Es war die ganze Zeit über so hässlich und so verstörend. Es gibt eigentlich keinen Weg, all diesen Horror umzudeuten oder irgendwie erträglich zu machen. Alles, was man tun kann, ist, an sich selbst zu arbeiten, um genug inneren Raum zu schaffen, um die schlechten Gefühle zuzulassen und sie ganz durchzufühlen, bis sie sich ausgedrückt haben. Lass die Verzweiflung herein. Die Trauer. Die Wut. Den Schmerz. Lass sie deinen Körper vollständig durchfließen, ohne Widerstand, und steh dann auf und schreibe das nächste Stück.

Das ist es, was Schreiben für mich jetzt ist. Es ist nie etwas, worüber ich mich freue, es zu teilen, oder wofür ich von Inspiration erfüllt bin. Wenn überhaupt, dann fühlt es sich eher so an wie: „Okay, hier bitte, es tut mir schrecklich leid, dass ich euch das zeigen muss, Leute.“ Es ist das Starren in die Dunkelheit, in das Blut, in das Gemetzel, in die gequälten Gesichter – und das Aufschreiben dessen, was ich sehe, Tag für Tag.

Nichts daran ist angenehm oder befriedigend. Es ist einfach das, was man tut, wenn ein Genozid in Echtzeit vor den eigenen Augen stattfindet, mit der Unterstützung der eigenen Gesellschaft. Alles daran ist entsetzlich, und es gibt keinen Weg, das schönzureden – aber man tut, was getan werden muss. So, wie man es täte, wenn es die eigene Familie wäre, die da draußen im Schutt liegt.

Dieser Genozid hat mich für immer verändert. Er hat viele Menschen für immer verändert. Wir werden nie wieder dieselben sein. Die Welt wird nie wieder dieselbe sein. Ganz gleich, was passiert oder wie dieser Albtraum endet – die Dinge werden nie wieder so sein wie zuvor.

Und das sollten sie auch nicht. Der Holocaust von Gaza ist das Ergebnis der Welt, wie sie vor ihm war. Unsere Gesellschaft hat ihn hervorgebracht – und jetzt starrt er uns allen direkt ins Gesicht. Das sind wir. Das ist die Frucht des Baumes, den die westliche Zivilisation bis zu diesem Punkt gepflegt hat.

Jetzt geht es nur noch darum, alles zu tun, was wir können, um den Genozid zu beenden – und sicherzustellen, dass die Welt die richtigen Lehren daraus zieht. Das ist eines der würdigsten Anliegen, denen man sich in diesem Leben widmen kann.

Ich habe noch immer Hoffnung, dass wir eine gesunde Welt haben können. Ich habe noch immer Hoffnung, dass das Schreiben über das, was geschieht, eines Tages wieder Freude bereiten kann. Aber diese Dinge liegen auf der anderen Seite eines langen, schmerzhaften, konfrontierenden Weges, der in den kommenden Jahren vor uns liegt. Es gibt keinen Weg daran vorbei.

Die Welt kann keinen Frieden und kein Glück finden, solange wir uns nicht vollständig damit auseinandergesetzt haben, was wir Gaza angetan haben.

Dieser Text ist die deutsche Übersetzung dieses Substack-Artikels von Caitlin Johnstone.

Before I saw those X right-wing political “influencers” parading their Epstein binders in that PR stunt, I’d already posted this on Nostr, an open protocol. 

“Today, the world’s attention will likely fixate on Epstein, governmental failures in addressing horrific abuse cases, and the influential figures who perpetrate such acts—yet few will center the victims and survivors in the conversation. The survivors of Epstein went to law enforcement and very little happened. The survivors tried to speak to the corporate press and the corporate press knowingly covered for him. In situations like these social media can serve as one of the only ways for a survivor’s voice to be heard. 

It’s becoming increasingly evident that the line between centralized corporate social media and the state is razor-thin, if it exists at all. Time and again, the state shields powerful abusers when it’s politically expedient to do so. In this climate, a survivor attempting to expose someone like Epstein on a corporate tech platform faces an uphill battle—there’s no assurance their voice would even break through. Their story wouldn’t truly belong to them; it’d be at the mercy of the platform, subject to deletion at a whim. Nostr, though, offers a lifeline—a censorship-resistant space where survivors can share their truths, no matter how untouchable the abuser might seem. A survivor could remain anonymous here if they took enough steps. 

Nostr holds real promise for amplifying survivor voices. And if you’re here daily, tossing out memes, take heart: you’re helping build a foundation for those who desperately need to be heard.“

That post is untouchable—no CEO, company, employee, or government can delete it. Even if I wanted to, I couldn’t take it down myself. The post will outlive me on the protocol. 

The cozy alliance between the state and corporate social media hit me hard during that right-wing X “influencer” PR stunt. Elon owns X. Elon’s a special government employee. X pays those influencers to post. We don’t know who else pays them to post. Those influencers are spurred on by both the government and X to manage the Epstein case narrative. It wasn’t survivors standing there, grinning for photos—it was paid influencers, gatekeepers orchestrating yet another chance to re-exploit the already exploited.

The bond between the state and corporate social media is tight. If the other Epsteins out there are ever to be unmasked, I wouldn’t bet on a survivor’s story staying safe with a corporate tech platform, the government, any social media influencer, or mainstream journalist. Right now, only a protocol can hand survivors the power to truly own their narrative.

I don’t have anything against Elon—I’ve actually been a big supporter. I’m just stating it as I see it. X isn’t censorship resistant and they have an algorithm that they choose not the user. Corporate tech platforms like X can be a better fit for some survivors. X has safety tools and content moderation, making it a solid option for certain individuals. Grok can be a big help for survivors looking for resources or support! As a survivor, you know what works best for you, and safety should always come first—keep that front and center.

That said, a protocol is a game-changer for cases where the powerful are likely to censor. During China's # MeToo movement, survivors faced heavy censorship on social media platforms like Weibo and WeChat, where posts about sexual harassment were quickly removed, and hashtags like # MeToo or "woyeshi" were blocked by government and platform filters. To bypass this, activists turned to blockchain technology encoding their stories—like Yue Xin’s open letter about a Peking University case—into transaction metadata. This made the information tamper-proof and publicly accessible, resisting censorship since blockchain data can’t be easily altered or deleted.

I posted this on X 2/28/25. I wanted to try my first long post on a nostr client. The Epstein cover up is ongoing so it’s still relevant, unfortunately.

Im Jahr 1954, als Frankreich gerade dabei war, seine kolonialen Kriege in Indochina und Algerien zu verschärfen, schrieb Boris Vian ein Lied – oder vielmehr: einen poetischen Faustschlag. Le Déserteur ist keine Ballade, sondern ein Manifest. Keine Hymne auf den Frieden, sondern eine Anklage gegen den Krieg. Adressiert an den Präsidenten, beginnt das Chanson wie ein höflicher Brief – und endet als flammender Akt des zivilen Ungehorsams.

„Herr Präsident,\ ich schreibe Ihnen einen Brief,\ den Sie vielleicht lesen werden,\ wenn Sie Zeit haben.“

Was folgt, ist ein klassischer Kriegsdienstverweigerungsbrief, aber eben kein bürokratischer. Vian spricht nicht in Paragraphen, sondern in Herzschlägen. Der Erzähler, ein einfacher Mann, will nicht kämpfen. Nicht für irgendein Vaterland, nicht für irgendeine Fahne, nicht für irgendeinen ideologischen Zweck.

„Ich soll zur Welt gekommen sein,\ um zu leben, nicht um zu sterben.“

70 Jahre später klingt diese Zeile wie ein Skandal. In einer Zeit, in der die Ukraine junge Männer für Kopfgeld auf der Straße zwangsrekrutiert und in Stahlgewitter schickt, in der palästinensische Jugendliche im Gazastreifen unter Trümmern begraben werden, während israelische Reservisten mit Dauerbefehl marschieren – ist Le Déserteur ein sakraler Text geworden. Fast ein Gebet.

„Wenn man mich verfolgt,\ werde ich den Gehorsam verweigern.\ Ich werde keine Waffe in die Hand nehmen,\ ich werde fliehen, bis ich Frieden finde.“

Wie viele „Deserteure“ gibt es heute, die wir gar nicht kennen? Menschen, die sich nicht auf die Seite der Bomben stellen wollen – egal, wer sie wirft? Die sich nicht mehr einspannen lassen zwischen Propaganda und Patriotismus? Die ihre Menschlichkeit über jeden nationalen Befehl stellen?

Der Krieg, sagt Vian, macht aus freien Menschen Befehlsempfänger und aus Söhnen Leichen. Und wer heute sagt, es gebe „gerechte Kriege“, sollte eine Frage beantworten: Ist es auch ein gerechter Tod?

Darum: Verweigert.

Verweigert den Befehl, zu hassen.\ Verweigert den Reflex, Partei zu ergreifen.\ Verweigert den Dienst an der Waffe.

Denn wie Vian singt:

„Sagen Sie's den Leuten:\ Ich werde nicht kommen.“

Sobre el amor

Mi percepción del amor cambió con el tiempo. Leer literatura rusa, principalmente a Dostoevsky, te cambia la perspectiva sobre el amor y la vida en general.

Por mucho tiempo mi visión sobre la vida es que la misma se basa en el sufrimiento: también la Biblia dice esto. El amor es igual, en el amor se sufre y se banca a la otra persona. El problema es que hay una distinción de sufrimientos que por mucho tiempo no tuve en cuenta. Está el sufrimiento del sacrificio y el sufrimiento masoquista. Para mí eran indistintos.

Para mí el ideal era Aliosha y Natasha de Humillados y Ofendidos: estar con alguien que me amase tanto como Natasha a Aliosha, un amor inclusive autodestructivo para Natasha, pero real. Tiene algo de épico, inalcanzable. Un sufrimiento extremo, redentor, es una vara altísima que en la vida cotidiana no se manifiesta. O el amor de Sonia a Raskolnikov, quien se fue hasta Siberia mientras estuvo en prisión para que no se quede solo en Crimen y Castigo.

Este es el tipo de amor que yo esperaba. Y como no me pasó nada tan extremo y las situaciones que llegan a ocurrir en mi vida están lejos de ser tan extremas, me parecía hasta poco lo que estaba pidiendo y que nadie pueda quedarse conmigo me parecía insuficiente.

Ahora pienso que el amor no tiene por qué ser así. Es un pensamiento nuevo que todavía estoy construyendo, y me di cuenta cuando fui a la iglesia, a pesar de que no soy cristiano. La filosofía cristiana me gusta. Va conmigo. Tiene un enfoque de humildad, superación y comunidad que me recuerda al estoicismo.

El amor se trata de resaltar lo mejor que hay en el otro. Se trata de ser un plus, de ayudar. Por eso si uno no está en su mejor etapa, si no se está cómodo con uno mismo, no se puede amar de verdad. El amor empieza en uno mismo.

Los libros son un espejo, no necesariamente vas a aprender de ellos, sino que te muestran quién sos. Resaltás lo que te importa. Por eso a pesar de saber los tipos de amores que hay en los trabajos de Dostoevsky, cometí los mismos errores varias veces.

Ser mejor depende de uno mismo y cada día se pone el granito de arena.

At this point, we should be arresting, not firing, any FBI employee who delays, destroys, or withholds information on the Epstein case. There is ZERO explanation I will accept for redacting anything for “national security” reasons. A lot of Trump supporters are losing patience with Pam Bondi. I will give her the benefit of the doubt for now since the corruption within the whole security/intelligence apparatus of our country runs deep. However, let’s not forget that probably Trump’s biggest mistakes in his first term involved picking weak and easily corruptible (or blackmailable) officials. It seemed every month a formerly-loyal person did a complete 180 degree turn and did everything they could to screw him over, regardless of the betrayal’s effect on the country or whatever principles that person claimed to have. I think he’s fixed his screening process, but since we’re talking about the FBI, we know they have the power to dig up any dirt or blackmail material available, or just make it up. In the Epstein case, it’s probably better to go after Bondi than give up a treasure trove of blackmail material against the long list of members on his client list.

1. O que é um Aromaterapeuta?

O aromaterapeuta é um profissional especializado na prática da Aromaterapia, responsável pelo uso adequado de óleos essenciais, ervas aromáticas, águas florais e destilados herbais para fins terapêuticos.

A atuação desse profissional envolve diferentes métodos de aplicação, como inalação, uso tópico, sempre considerando a segurança e a necessidade individual do cliente. A Aromaterapia pode auxiliar na redução do estresse, alívio de dores crônicas, relaxamento muscular e melhora da respiração, entre outros benefícios.

Além disso, os aromaterapeutas podem trabalhar em conjunto com outros profissionais da saúde para oferecer um tratamento complementar em diversas condições. Como já mencionado no artigo sobre "Como evitar processos alérgicos na prática da Aromaterapia", é essencial ter acompanhamento profissional, pois os óleos essenciais são altamente concentrados e podem causar reações adversas se utilizados de forma inadequada.

2. Como um Aromaterapeuta Pode Ajudar?

Você pode procurar um aromaterapeuta para diferentes necessidades, como:

✔ Questões Emocionais e Psicológicas

Auxílio em momentos de luto, divórcio, demissão ou outras situações desafiadoras.

Apoio na redução do estresse, ansiedade e insônia.

Vale lembrar que, em casos de transtornos psiquiátricos, a Aromaterapia deve ser usada como terapia complementar, associada ao tratamento médico.

✔ Questões Físicas

Dores musculares e articulares.

Problemas respiratórios como rinite, sinusite e tosse.

Distúrbios digestivos leves.

Dores de cabeça e enxaquecas. Nesses casos, a Aromaterapia pode ser um suporte, mas não substitui a medicina tradicional para identificar a origem dos sintomas.

✔ Saúde da Pele e Cabelos

Tratamento para acne, dermatites e psoríase.

Cuidados com o envelhecimento precoce da pele.

Redução da queda de cabelo e controle da oleosidade do couro cabeludo.

There is something quietly rebellious about stacking sats. In a world obsessed with instant gratification, choosing to patiently accumulate Bitcoin, one sat at a time, feels like a middle finger to the hype machine. But to do it right, you have got to stay humble. Stack too hard with your head in the clouds, and you will trip over your own ego before the next halving even hits.

Small Wins

Stacking sats is not glamorous. Discipline. Stacking every day, week, or month, no matter the price, and letting time do the heavy lifting. Humility lives in that consistency. You are not trying to outsmart the market or prove you are the next "crypto" prophet. Just a regular person, betting on a system you believe in, one humble stack at a time. Folks get rekt chasing the highs. They ape into some shitcoin pump, shout about it online, then go silent when they inevitably get rekt. The ones who last? They stack. Just keep showing up. Consistency. Humility in action. Know the game is long, and you are not bigger than it.

Ego is Volatile

Bitcoin’s swings can mess with your head. One day you are up 20%, feeling like a genius and the next down 30%, questioning everything. Ego will have you panic selling at the bottom or over leveraging the top. Staying humble means patience, a true bitcoin zen. Do not try to "beat” Bitcoin. Ride it. Stack what you can afford, live your life, and let compounding work its magic.

Simplicity

There is a beauty in how stacking sats forces you to rethink value. A sat is worth less than a penny today, but every time you grab a few thousand, you plant a seed. It is not about flaunting wealth but rather building it, quietly, without fanfare. That mindset spills over. Cut out the noise: the overpriced coffee, fancy watches, the status games that drain your wallet. Humility is good for your soul and your stack. I have a buddy who has been stacking since 2015. Never talks about it unless you ask. Lives in a decent place, drives an old truck, and just keeps stacking. He is not chasing clout, he is chasing freedom. That is the vibe: less ego, more sats, all grounded in life.

The Big Picture

Stack those sats. Do it quietly, do it consistently, and do not let the green days puff you up or the red days break you down. Humility is the secret sauce, it keeps you grounded while the world spins wild. In a decade, when you look back and smile, it will not be because you shouted the loudest. It will be because you stayed the course, one sat at a time. \ \ Stay Humble and Stack Sats. 🫡

Austin, Texas – May 22, 2025 — Jippi, a pioneering mobile augmented reality (AR) game developer, is set to transform Bitcoin education with the launch of its flagship game at the Bitcoin Conference 2025, held at The Venetian Resort in Las Vegas from May 27-29.

In collaboration with six leading Bitcoin companies—Bitcoin Well, Beyond The Checkout, Bitcoin Trading Cards, Geyser, SHAmory, and 21M Communications—Jippi introduces an innovative blend of outdoor adventure, Bitcoin rewards, and gamified financial education designed to captivate.

At the Bitcoin Conference, Jippi’s six partners have sponsored custom “Bitcoin Beasts” tied to specific locations around The Venetian. Each sponsored Beast offers players exclusive rewards and trivia, transforming brand interactions into immersive, non-intrusive experiences.

With an expected attendance of over 30,000 at the conference, sponsors gain unparalleled exposure to a tech-savvy, Bitcoin-centric audience.  Players will be rewarded 1k sats for each catch, making the total reward for catching them all 6k sats.

Jippi is redefining how young adults engage with Bitcoin by combining the thrill of location-based AR gameplay, reminiscent of Pokémon GO, with real-world bitcoin rewards (sats) and bite-sized lessons on sound money principles.

Players explore real-world locations to hunt digital creatures called Bitcoin Beasts, answering Bitcoin-related trivia to capture them and earn sats, the smallest unit of bitcoin.

The game’s seamless integration of education and entertainment makes learning about Bitcoin fun, accessible, and rewarding.

“We’re meeting Gen Z where they are—90% play mobile games, and 70% expect rewards for their time,” said Oliver Porter, Founder and CEO of Jippi.

“Jippi backdoors Bitcoin education through an immersive, reward-driven experience while offering our partners a unique branding opportunity. It’s a win-win for players, sponsors, and the Bitcoin ecosystem.”

“Jippi’s mission to gamify Bitcoin education is a game-changer for onboarding the next generation,” said Adam O’Brien, CEO of Bitcoin Well, a leading automatic self-custody Bitcoin platform and “Beast” sponsor.

“Their AR game makes learning about Bitcoin intuitive and engaging, aligning perfectly with our vision of financial empowerment. From a branding perspective, partnering with Jippi to engage and acquire new customers is a no brainer.”

In March 2025, Jippi clinched the top prize in PlebLab’s prestigious Top Builder competition, a three-month hackathon designed to spotlight innovative Bitcoin startups.

Backed by over a year of development, on-site surveys, and university testing, Jippi is a leading innovator in the Bitcoin industry looking to onboard the next generation.

Jippi invites brands, investors, and media to explore sponsorship and investment opportunities. Visit Jippi’s Partnerships Page for sponsorship details or Jippi’s Timestamp Page for investment inquiries.

Men today are more isolated than ever. Despite spending a decade and a half in school, most men never learned how to connect. They enter into adulthood under-socialized, under-confident, and unsure if friendship is even possible.

But we are still human. Still tribal. Still wired for bonding, brotherhood, and belonging.

We need friends. We need support. And as the old system collapses around us, the men who will build the new one are not the lone wolves, they are the men who can organize, who can trust, who can form and hold a network.

Everything changes when you’re not facing life alone. This post will teach you how to create friendships worth trusting, and how to grow those friendships into a tribe.

Let’s walk this path together.

What you’re about to read is strategy.

We’ll touch on tactics briefly, but tactics are the how. Strategy is the what and why. Without strategy, your tactics are blind. Without tactics, your strategy is limp.

As the saying goes:

Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat. Strategy without tactics is the slow death of inaction.

You are still going to need to learn the tactics, but that's for another post or 1-to-1 coaching.

Step 1: Trust Yourself First

Before you can build the kind of friendships that matter, you have to confront a brutal truth: the kind of man you are will limit the kind of social network you can create.

This isn’t a message of doom, it’s intentional design. You will use it to exclude unworthy men from your group one day. But now it means being honest with yourself.

• Social class is real. You will struggle to form deep friendships outside of yours.

• Racial and religious lines often divide friendship groups.

• Men-only and women-only groups tend to last longer and suffer less drama.

• Most new groups form around people of similar age, but the best ones include a mix. Older friends are anchors and portals to power networks. Younger friends present the possibility of creating legacy and passing on your work.

• You must bring value. No one wants a burden. If you have nothing to offer, you won’t be kept around.

• Time spent together does not equal friendship. A real friend shows up at 3 a.m. when your life is falling apart, and risks his own to help you. A real friend will tell you when you are going in a bad direction, even risking the relationship to do so.

Once you’ve accepted these truths, you can start from where you are. With clarity. With purpose.

Now, the first internal shift:

You can’t build real friendships until you recognize who you are, what you bring, and what kind of men you’re meant to bond with.

That means:

• Knowing who you are (having a clear identity)

• Setting boundaries you enforce (with yourself and others)

• Choosing a direction for your life

You don’t have to be perfect. But you do have to be real with yourself.

Friendship is a bond, a deep connection. And connection requires something stable in you for others to connect to.

When you are clear in who you are, when your identity is not masking or shifting to match the room, others can find you. They can lock in. They can trust you.

Then you become knowable. And that's the first requirement for being known.

Until that happens, your relationships will be hollow. Masks touching masks.

Strip off the mask. Become solid. Then we can move forward.

Step 2: Remove the Blockages

If you don’t have the experience or training to navigate social situations, your nervous system will default to fear. That fear isn’t a flaw, it’s a signal that you don’t yet feel safe. Because right now, you aren’t.

A lot of things in life are dangerous when you’re unskilled and completely safe when you’ve mastered them. You wouldn’t put a six-year-old behind the wheel on a busy highway. Not because driving is unsafe, but because it’s unsafe for a child. Give him ten years and some training, and he’ll navigate that danger with confidence.

Socializing is the same. There are real dangers, users, predators, energy vampires. But once you become emotionally regulated and socially competent, those people stick out like diseased animals in a herd. You see them coming. You feel them grating on your nerves. You say "no" to them easily.

Until then, fear is natural. But fear is not permanent.

Start by recognizing this:

• Fear of rejection is often a symptom of hunger. Starving for attention makes rejection feel fatal.

• Rejection is not failure. It’s filtration. It tells you who doesn’t belong.

• Every no gets you closer to a real yes from someone you belong with.

And then start reframing. Replace low-agency scripts with high-agency ones:

• “People will take advantage of me” → “I will grow wise enough to spot and block manipulators.”

• “No one likes me” → “The right people will recognize me when I stand strong and clear.”

• “I always get rejected” → “Every rejection brings me closer to alignment.”

• “I don’t know what to say” → “I’ll learn what to say by saying it badly until I figure it out.”

This is how you break the cycle. This is how you reprogram your heart and mind.

And here’s the final truth: If your life is full of draining, toxic people, there’s no room for the good ones to enter. High-quality men won’t stick around if your circle is full of chaos. They’ll take one look, feel the spiritual dissonance, and walk away.

Let the rejections protect you from accumulating bad associates.

Clean up your house. Evict the bad people. Then open the door to the right people.

Then you’ll be ready for skills.

Step 3: Learn the Skills

Social skill begins with curiosity. If you are genuinely curious about other people, what makes them tick, what brings them joy, what keeps them up at night, socializing becomes natural.

People are drawn to those who are interested in them. If you’re curious, you’ll ask better questions, you’ll listen more deeply, and you’ll notice more. And without even trying, you’ll become more likable.

Many of the core skills, reading emotions, offering value, knowing what to say, are born from this simple curiosity.

One powerful habit: learn to remember and use people’s names. Reflect their words back to them. Mention what matters to them. This kind of attention is rare, and magnetic. It tells a man: you see him, you remember him, he matters.

But curiosity isn’t enough. You also need to learn how not to be obnoxious.

That means:

• Don’t smell bad.

• Dress like a man, not a lost teenager.

• Speak clearly and truthfully, or stay silent with dignity.

Being The Quiet Man is fine. You won’t stand out, but you’ll be allowed in the room. That’s enough, at first. With time, courage will rise.

Once you’ve learned not to repel people, the next step is to attract them, by being useful, by being honorable.

Ask yourself:

• Can I help set up or clean up at events?

• Can I take small leadership roles in groups or activities?

• Can I make someone’s day easier without needing credit?

This is how you become valuable. This is how people start to see you.

Some of the deepest friendships I’ve built came from volunteering, taking the lead when no one else would. That put me shoulder to shoulder with other men who also cared, who were also building, and who became brothers in the process.

Step 4: Run the Social OODA Loop

The OODA Loop is a decision-making and refinement cycle originally developed for fighter pilots, and it works beautifully in social life too. Here's how it breaks down:

• Observe: What happened in that interaction?

• Orient: What did I miss or misread?

• Decide: What will I try differently next time?

• Act: Do it again (but slightly better).

This is how you refine. This is how you stop overthinking. This is how you become social.

But don’t expect miracles from a single pass. Running the loop once won’t fix your life. You need to run it 100 times. Maybe 1,000.

If you can run the loop 10 times at a single event, then 10 events will make you competent. 100 events might make you a master. But if you only run the loop once a week, your progress will crawl.

Here’s the good news: you can run most of the loop in your head. After each interaction, step aside. Review. Ask yourself what worked, what didn’t, what subtle adjustment you’ll test next. Don’t change everything at once. Small, surgical shifts get clearer results.

And never stop. The better you get, the more daring your experiments. Higher risk. Bigger reward.

To run the loop, you need a place to run it. That means: get out of the house.

By this point, you know how not to be obnoxious. You know how to show value. Now it’s time to go where the people are. You don’t have to know exactly what to say, you just need to be present.

Go to places where the kind of men you want to befriend might gather. (I won’t list them here, there’s going to be a separate article for that.)

Show up. Run the loop. Repeat.

When you reflect afterward, don’t just think about what was said. Ask: how did I make that person feel? That feeling is what sticks. It’s what decides whether they seek you out again, whether they remember you with warmth or unease. You’re not just exchanging words. You’re leaving emotional imprints.

But understand: This phase mostly produces acquaintances. If you want real friends, you need to go deeper.

Step 5: Build Trust with One Man

Sometimes, the men we clash with are the ones we end up trusting the most.

When I was in grade two, a new kid joined our class. He was from Blackpool, England, with a thick regional accent. I was excited to talk to him, my great-grandmother was English too, with a much posher accent, and after spending time with her I’d sometimes imitate her way of speaking. So I walked up to him, full of enthusiasm, and started speaking in my best Posh British accent.

He punched me in the face.

Maybe he thought I was mocking him. Maybe he just didn’t like posh people. I never asked. We ended up in a full-on fistfight right there in the classroom, both of us with bloody noses by the time the teacher broke it up and sent us off to the nurse and principal’s office.

But by the time the principal arrived to scold us, we were already sitting side by side, laughing. We’d made up. In fact, we’d already declared to the nurse that we were going to be best friends. And we were, for years.

We fought side by side more than once after that. Against kids who tried to pick on one of us. Against kids who thought they could push our friends around. We were both aggressive. We didn’t tolerate disrespect. And we both respected each other for standing our ground.

That fight didn’t drive us apart, it proved something. He was someone who wouldn’t fold. Someone I could trust in a hard moment. And over time, that trust became the foundation of a real friendship. Not a shallow one. A bonded one.

I’m not saying you should go around punching people to make friends. But you should recognize that sometimes, initial conflict means potential. The man who pushes back might be the one who won’t betray you.

So start simple:

• Find one man who has potential.

• Offer a little trust.

• Watch what he does with it.

• Offer more if he earns it. Pull back if he doesn’t.

Repeat the loop. This is how friendships are forged. Slowly. Deliberately.

A small ask, "Can you help me with this?", can build more loyalty than a grand gesture. The act of doing something for you makes a man more likely to identify with you, invest further, and feel bonded. That’s the principle of commitment and consistency. Use it well.

That one friend is all it takes to begin something bigger.

In my case, that friendship grew into a tight crew of several boys. We didn’t form around shared hobbies, we formed around shared loyalty, shared risks, and shared fights. We had each other’s backs. And it all started with two boys willing to bleed and shake hands after.

Step 6: Expand to Three : Your First Männerbund

Once you’ve built trust with one man, it becomes much easier to find a third.

This is called the Founder Effect: it’s far easier to grow something from a small nucleus than it is to start from scratch. One man trying to find a friend looks like a loner. Two men inviting another into a bond looks like an opportunity.

So now, together, you find a third.

You look for the same signals. You vet him together.

Here’s how:

• Host dinners or BBQs

• Go on day hikes

• Train together, cook together, work on projects

• Workout or box together

• Observe him under pressure

And add practical value-building activities:

• Invite a man over to help you renovate a classic car, paint a room, or fix something in your house. Then offer to help him with his project.

• When someone is moving, show up to load the truck, and bring your friend.

Men bond through shared effort. Through lifting, sweating, solving problems side by side.

If he fits into the group, you now have your three. That’s the start of a Männerbund, a male-bonded group that holds each other to mission, loyalty, and growth.

You do this by doing real things together. Projects. Ventures. Challenges.

Not just hanging out. Not wasting time.

Men bond by building.

Step 7: Form Traditions, Roles, and a Mission

Once you have three, you have enough for a shared culture. And that culture will be shaped by those first three men.

This is why mission matters.

Groups form around purpose. Men follow a vision (or a man who has a vision). If you’re the kind of man who has a mission, a clear idea of what you’re building or why you’re gathering others, many men will join you just to be part of that.

And remember: true authority and power is not claimed, it’s given. If you lead with clarity, strength, and service, the men around you will start to follow. Not because you told them to, but because they want to.

Most men don’t have a mission. They wake up each day without purpose, surviving out of inertia. If you offer something better than "not dying," they’ll follow.

And if you don’t yet have a mission, go find a man who does. Stand beside him. Learn. Contribute. Either way, your life will be richer.

Now it’s time to structure what you’ve built:

• Establish traditions—weekly dinners, seasonal rites, holiday gatherings

• Recognize roles—let them emerge from natural strengths: a leader may rise, an organizer may step forward, a host may naturally take care of the environment

• Clarify your mission—What are we building? What unites us?

Make it matter to belong. Let entry to your group require demonstration of value and trustworthiness. Exclusivity creates pride. When somethi ng has to be earned, it’s treated with reverence.

You don’t need a constitution. But you do need clarity.

Groups die without direction.

Even friendship needs a reason to live.

And once your group has rhythm and momentum it’s time to go beyond yourselves.

Step 8: Network with Other Groups

Every group needs a man who reaches out.

Because this is how men, and their networks, gain power.

Small groups form the seed. Those seeds grow into networks. Those networks connect into federations. And eventually, those federations shape institutions, nations, and global structures.

This is how power works.

It’s not just about money. It’s not just about intelligence. If you’re not connected to these human networks, you don’t matter in the structures that rule the world. You’ll be a ghost to the men who move things.

So how do you connect?

Send a representative. Make contact. Don’t expect to be treated as equals right away. Your group might be smaller, younger, or less skilled. That’s fine. It just means you return to the basics:

• Offer value first.

• Be clear about what you can give.

• Be humble in what you request in return.

This is how you build trust between groups, through reciprocal exchange. The same OODA Loop applies. Offer a little. See how it’s handled. Offer more. Back away if it’s mishandled.

Over time, trust grows. Networks link. Power forms.

And when you find the right alliances, your group becomes something more than just a circle of friends. It becomes a node in a living system.

This is how groups grow into tribes. This is how villages get reclaimed. This is how you raise a banner that others want to rally to.

Because the ultimate goal is not just to make a friend.

It’s to rebuild civilization, one friendship at a time.

You’ve waited long enough.

Start by cultivating the desire to be part of something greater. Brotherhood requires sacrifice, of time, of comfort, of convenience. If you don’t want it deeply enough, you won’t overcome the inertia. You’ll stay on the couch while the world moves forward without you.

Then get out of the house. Even if you haven’t done all the earlier steps yet, start going where the people are. The pressure of reality will drive your growth. You’ll learn faster when your failures sting and your small wins feel real.

In the valley of Wudo, nestled between emerald mountains and singing rivers, there was a village known for its harmony. The people of Wudil lived simple lives farming, weaving, raising children, and singing their local song to the wind. Their days flowed with the rhythm of nature, untouched by war, plague, or tyranny. For generations, the people believed they were blessed by the gods of balance.

Among them was a young woman named Eva. A gardener by trade, Eva tended to the central orchard, where trees older than memory bore fruit that nourished the entire village. She was known for her patience, her kindness, and her unwavering devotion to her garden. She’d never known violence, nor sorrow deeper than a poor harvest.

Eva believed peace was the default state of the world, like a calm lake reflecting the sky.

Fire came from beyond the mountains.

No one saw it coming not until the smoke darkened the horizon. A warlord named Stephen, a conqueror from the north, sought to expand his empire. The village of Wudil, with its fertile lands and soft people, was no obstacle.

The soldiers descended like wolves.

Homes were burned. Families torn apart. Screams replaced songs. Eva, who had never raised a hand in anger, watched her orchard set ablaze, twisting in fire, roots cracking, birds fleeing into the smoke.

She ran. She survived. But everything she had known, every idea she had clung to about the world being kind and calm was turned to ash in a single night.

She wandered for weeks through scorched forests and ravaged towns. She saw the aftermath of chaos starving children, hollow-eyed men, women digging graves with bare hands. And each time she closed her eyes, she heard the fire crackle and the cries of her neighbors.

The peace she once knew now felt like a dream someone else had lived.

Eventually, Eva reached the wasteland. A vast, arid expanse where nothing grew and the sky was white with heat. There, she collapsed body thin, lips cracked, hope extinguished.

She expected to die.

But she didn’t.

A band of wanderers found her. Survivors from other broken lands. They took her in, gave her water, patched her wounds. They were not like the people of Wudil; there was no softness in them. They had lived through war, betrayal, famine. They spoke little, but their silence carried weight.

Among them was an old woman named Serah. Scarred, one eye blind, but her presence quiet and steady.

“You come from the green valley,” Serah said one night. “The ones who believed they’d been spared.”

Eva nodded slowly.

“And now you know,” Serah said, “peace is not something given. It is something grown.”

“I thought I had peace,” Eva whispered.

“No. You had comfort. The two are not the same.”

Years passed.

Eva stayed with the wanderers, traveling from ruin to ruin, helping the broken rebuild. She learned to defend herself, to plant seeds in difficult soil, to listen more than she spoke. The ache inside her never truly faded, but it no longer ruled her.

One day, she returned to the valley of Wudo.

There was nothing left of Wudil but ruins. The land was overgrown, the orchard just blackened stumps. But the river still sang. And the soil, though scarred, was still rich.

Eva dropped to her knees and dug her fingers into the earth.

She planted the first seed.

Others joined her refugees, wanderers, survivors who had lost their homes. They built slowly, with hands that had known suffering. They did not speak of peace as something fragile, but as something they must forge again and again like fire-forged steel.

The orchard grew once more. But this time, every branch held memory. Every root, resilience.

Eva became the heart of the new village. The children called her the Flame-Gardener not because she brought destruction, but because she had survived it and bloomed anyway.

One evening, under the silver moon, a child asked her, “Why do you never fear the storms?”

Eva smiled softly. “Because I’ve lived through worse. And I’ve learned true peace doesn’t come when the world is quiet. It comes when your soul is strong enough to stand in the storm... and stay still.”

Scuttlebutt foi iniciado em maio de 2014 por Dominic Tarr ( dominictarr ) como uma rede social alternativa off-line, primeiro para convidados, que permite aos usuários obter controle total de seus dados e privacidade. Secure Scuttlebutt (ssb) foi lançado pouco depois, o que coloca a privacidade em primeiro plano com mais recursos de criptografia.

Se você está se perguntando de onde diabos veio o nome Scuttlebutt:

Este termo do século 19 para uma fofoca vem do Scuttlebutt náutico: “um barril de água mantido no convés, com um buraco para uma xícara”. A gíria náutica vai desde o hábito dos marinheiros de se reunir pelo boato até a fofoca, semelhante à fofoca do bebedouro.

Marinheiros se reunindo em torno da rixa. ( fonte )

Dominic descobriu o termo boato em um artigo de pesquisa que leu.

Em sistemas distribuídos, fofocar é um processo de retransmissão de mensagens ponto a ponto; as mensagens são disseminadas de forma análoga ao “boca a boca”.

Secure Scuttlebutt é um banco de dados de feeds imutáveis apenas para acréscimos, otimizado para replicação eficiente para protocolos ponto a ponto. Cada usuário tem um log imutável somente para acréscimos no qual eles podem gravar. Eles gravam no log assinando mensagens com sua chave privada. Pense em um feed de usuário como seu próprio diário de bordo, como um diário de bordo (ou diário do capitão para os fãs de Star Trek), onde eles são os únicos autorizados a escrever nele, mas têm a capacidade de permitir que outros amigos ou colegas leiam ao seu diário de bordo, se assim o desejarem.

Cada mensagem possui um número de sequência e a mensagem também deve fazer referência à mensagem anterior por seu ID. O ID é um hash da mensagem e da assinatura. A estrutura de dados é semelhante à de uma lista vinculada. É essencialmente um log somente de acréscimo de JSON assinado. Cada item adicionado a um log do usuário é chamado de mensagem.

Os logs do usuário são conhecidos como feed e um usuário pode seguir os feeds de outros usuários para receber suas atualizações. Cada usuário é responsável por armazenar seu próprio feed. Quando Alice assina o feed de Bob, Bob baixa o log de feed de Alice. Bob pode verificar se o registro do feed realmente pertence a Alice verificando as assinaturas. Bob pode verificar as assinaturas usando a chave pública de Alice.

Estrutura de alto nível de um feed

Pubs são servidores de retransmissão conhecidos como “super peers”. Pubs conectam usuários usuários e atualizações de fofocas a outros usuários conectados ao Pub. Um Pub é análogo a um pub da vida real, onde as pessoas vão para se encontrar e se socializar. Para ingressar em um Pub, o usuário deve ser convidado primeiro. Um usuário pode solicitar um código de convite de um Pub; o Pub simplesmente gerará um novo código de convite, mas alguns Pubs podem exigir verificação adicional na forma de verificação de e-mail ou, com alguns Pubs, você deve pedir um código em um fórum público ou chat. Pubs também podem mapear aliases de usuário, como e-mails ou nome de usuário, para IDs de chave pública para facilitar os pares de referência.

Depois que o Pub enviar o código de convite ao usuário, o usuário resgatará o código, o que significa que o Pub seguirá o usuário, o que permite que o usuário veja as mensagens postadas por outros membros do Pub, bem como as mensagens de retransmissão do Pub pelo usuário a outros membros do Pub.

Além de retransmitir mensagens entre pares, os Pubs também podem armazenar as mensagens. Se Alice estiver offline e Bob transmitir atualizações de feed, Alice perderá a atualização. Se Alice ficar online, mas Bob estiver offline, não haverá como ela buscar o feed de Bob. Mas com um Pub, Alice pode buscar o feed no Pub mesmo se Bob estiver off-line porque o Pub está armazenando as mensagens. Pubs são úteis porque assim que um colega fica online, ele pode sincronizar com o Pub para receber os feeds de seus amigos potencialmente offline.

Um usuário pode, opcionalmente, executar seu próprio servidor Pub e abri-lo ao público ou permitir que apenas seus amigos participem, se assim o desejarem. Eles também podem ingressar em um Pub público. Aqui está uma lista de Pubs públicos em que todos podem participar . Explicaremos como ingressar em um posteriormente neste guia. Uma coisa importante a observar é que o Secure Scuttlebutt em uma rede social somente para convidados significa que você deve ser “puxado” para entrar nos círculos sociais. Se você responder às mensagens, os destinatários não serão notificados, a menos que estejam seguindo você de volta. O objetivo do SSB é criar “ilhas” isoladas de redes pares, ao contrário de uma rede pública onde qualquer pessoa pode enviar mensagens a qualquer pessoa.

Scuttlebot

O software Pub é conhecido como servidor Scuttlebutt (servidor ssb ), mas também é conhecido como “Scuttlebot” e sbotna linha de comando. O servidor SSB adiciona comportamento de rede ao banco de dados Scuttlebutt (SSB). Estaremos usando o Scuttlebot ao longo deste tutorial.

Os logs do usuário são conhecidos como feed e um usuário pode seguir os feeds de outros usuários para receber suas atualizações. Cada usuário é responsável por armazenar seu próprio feed. Quando Alice assina o feed de Bob, Bob baixa o log de feed de Alice. Bob pode verificar se o registro do feed realmente pertence a Alice verificando as assinaturas.

Patchwork - Uma GUI SSB (Descontinuado)

Patchwork é o aplicativo de mensagens e compartilhamento descentralizado construído em cima do SSB . O protocolo scuttlebutt em si não mantém um conjunto de feeds nos quais um usuário está interessado, então um cliente é necessário para manter uma lista de feeds de pares em que seu respectivo usuário está interessado e seguindo.

Fonte: scuttlebutt.nz

Quando você instala e executa o Patchwork, você só pode ver e se comunicar com seus pares em sua rede local. Para acessar fora de sua LAN, você precisa se conectar a um Pub. Um pub é apenas para convidados e eles retransmitem mensagens entre você e seus pares fora de sua LAN e entre outros Pubs.

Lembre-se de que você precisa seguir alguém para receber mensagens dessa pessoa. Isso reduz o envio de mensagens de spam para os usuários. Os usuários só veem as respostas das pessoas que seguem. Os dados são sincronizados no disco para funcionar offline, mas podem ser sincronizados diretamente com os pares na sua LAN por wi-fi ou bluetooth.

Patchbay - Uma GUI Alternativa

Patchbay é um cliente de fofoca projetado para ser fácil de modificar e estender. Ele usa o mesmo banco de dados que Patchwork e Patchfoo , então você pode facilmente dar uma volta com sua identidade existente.

Planetary - GUI para IOS

Planetary é um app com pubs pré-carregados para facilitar integração.

Manyverse - GUI para Android

Manyverse é um aplicativo de rede social com recursos que você esperaria: posts, curtidas, perfis, mensagens privadas, etc. Mas não está sendo executado na nuvem de propriedade de uma empresa, em vez disso, as postagens de seus amigos e todos os seus dados sociais vivem inteiramente em seu telefone .

Marty's Bent

via Kevin McKernan

There's been a lot of discussion this week about Casey Means being nominated for Surgeon General of the United States and a broader overarching conversation about the effectiveness of MAHA since the inauguration and how effective it may or may not be moving forward. Many would say that President Trump won re-election due to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Nicole Shanahan deciding to reach across the aisle and join the Trump ticket, bringing with them the MAHA Moms, who are very focused on reorienting the healthcare system in the United States with a strong focus on the childhood vaccine schedule.

I'm not going to lie, this is something I'm passionate about as well, particularly after having many conversations over the years with doctors like Kevin McKernan, Dr. Jack Kruse, Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, Dr. Brooke Miller, Dr. Peter McCullough and others about the dangers of the COVID mRNA vaccines. As it stands today, I think this is the biggest elephant in the room in the world of healthcare. If you look at the data, particularly disability claims, life insurance claims, life expectancy, miscarriage rates, fertility issues and rates of turbo cancer around the world since the COVID vaccine was introduced in 2021, it seems pretty clear that there is harm being done to many of the people who have taken them.

The risk-reward ratio of the vaccines seems to be incredibly skewed towards risk over reward and children - who have proven to be least susceptible to COVID - are expected to get three COVID shots in the first year of their life if their parents follow the vaccine schedule. For some reason or another it seems that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has shied away from this topic after becoming the head of Health and Human Services within the Trump administration. This is after a multi-year campaign during which getting the vaccines removed from the market war a core part of his platform messaging.

I'm still holding out hope that sanity will prevail. The COVID mRNA vaccines will be taken off the market in a serious conversation about the crimes against humanity that unfolded during the COVID years will take place. However, we cannot depend on that outcome. We must build with the assumption in mind that that outcome may never materialize. This leads to identifying where the incentives within the system are misconstrued. One area where I think it's pretty safe to say that the incentives are misaligned is the fact that 95% of doctors work for and answer to a corporation driven by their bottom line. Instead of listening to their patients and truly caring about the outcome of each individual, doctors forced to think about the monetary outcome of the corporation they work for first.

The most pernicious way in which these misaligned incentives emerge is the way in which the hospital systems and physicians are monetarily incentivized by big pharma companies to push the COVID vaccine and other vaccines on their patients. It is important to acknowledge that we cannot be dependent on a system designed in this way to change from within. Instead, we must build a new incentive system and market structure. And obviously, if you're reading this newsletter, you know that I believe that bitcoin will play a pivotal role in realigning incentives across every industry. Healthcare just being one of them.

Bitcoiners have identified the need to become sovereign in our monetary matters, it probably makes sense to become sovereign when it comes to our healthcare as well. This means finding doctors who operate outside the corporate controlled system and are able to offer services that align incentives with the end patient. My family utilizes a combination of CrowdHealth and a private care physician to align incentives. We've even utilized a private care physician who allowed us to pay in Bitcoin for her services for a number of years. I think this is the model. Doctors accepting hard censorship resistant money for the healthcare and advice they provide. Instead of working for a corporation looking to push pharmaceutical products on their patients so they can bolster their bottom line, work directly with patients who will pay in bitcoin, which will appreciate in value over time.

I had a lengthy discussion with Dr. Jack Kruse on the podcast earlier today discussing these topic and more. It will be released on Thursday and I highly recommend you freaks check it out once it is published. Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss it.

How the "Exorbitant Privilege" of the Dollar is Undermining Our Manufacturing Base

In my conversation with Lyn Alden, we explored America's fundamental economic contradiction. As Lyn expertly explained, maintaining the dollar's reserve currency status while attempting to reshore manufacturing presents a near-impossible challenge - what economists call Triffin's Dilemma. The world's appetite for dollars gives Americans tremendous purchasing power but simultaneously hollows out our industrial base. The overvalued dollar makes our exports less competitive, especially for lower-margin manufacturing, while our imports remain artificially strong.

"Having the reserve currency does come with a bunch of benefits, historically called an exorbitant privilege, but then it has certain costs to maintain it." - Lyn Alden

This dilemma forces America to run persistent trade deficits, as this is how dollars flow to the world. For over four decades, these deficits have accumulated, creating massive economic imbalances that can't be quickly reversed. The Trump administration's attempts to address this through tariffs showcase how difficult rebalancing has become. As Lyn warned, even if we successfully pivot toward reshoring manufacturing, we'll face difficult trade-offs: potentially giving up some reserve currency benefits to rebuild our industrial foundation. This isn't just economic theory - it's the restructuring challenge that will define America's economic future.

Check out the full podcast here for more on China's manufacturing dominance, the role of Bitcoin in monetary transitions, and energy production as the foundation for future industrial power.

Zwei Worte nur braucht man – und die Sache ist klar. Jeder gebildete Russe kennt diese Worte: sie stammen aus dem XIX. Jahrhundert, als Nikolaus I. die Krim-Kampagne begann und das Zarenreich nach üblen Querelen ganz Europa und die Türkei zum Gegner hatte - allen voran die Herrscher der Weltmeere: das British Empire mit Queen Victoria. Der historische Ausdruck anglitschanka gadit (locker übersetzt: die Engländerin macht Shit) besitzt bis heute verdeckte politische Sprengkraft und ist seit Ende Februar 2022 in Russland wieder populär. Wer auch immer der Urheber dieser im Original durchaus diskreten Benennung des Fäkalvorgangs war: der Ausdruck steht für ernste Konflikte mit dem Englisch sprechenden Westen, dem Erzfeind.

Ein kurzer Blick in die Geschichte mag dies erläutern: Fast alle westlichen Historiker benennen als Auslöser des Krimkrieges Mitte des IX. Jahrhunderts die Verteidigung der russisch-orthodoxen Kirche und deren Zugang zur Kreuzkirche in Jerusalem. Es wird vom letzten Kreuzzug u.a. geschrieben. Das ist eine höchst einseitige Interpretation, denn es ging Nikolaus I. vor allem um den Zugang zum einzigen dauerhaft eisfreien Hafen Russlands im Schwarzen Meer, durch die Meeresenge der Dardanellen ins Mittelmeer. Das ist verständlich, war doch die Eroberung der Krim ab 1783 unter seiner Großmutter Katharina II. aus eben diesem Grunde erfolgt. Damals schon wurde der Hafen Sewastopol zum Stützpunkt der russischen Flotte ausgebaut. 

Ende 1825, nach dem plötzlichen Tod des ältesten Bruders Alexander I., war Nikolaus von seiner Erziehung her auf eine Regentschaft ganz und gar nicht vorbereitet gewesen, doch herrschte er dreißig Jahre lang nicht nur über das russische Reich, sondern auch über Finnland und das damalige Königreich Polen unter russischem Protektorat. Nikolaus I. zeichnete sich von Beginn an durch Gewaltmaßnahmen aus: Als ihm im Dezember (russ. dekabr)1825 eine Gruppe sehr gebildeter, freiheitsliebender junger Adligen aus besten Familien den Eid verweigerte (dies zog als Dekabristenaufstand in die Geschichte ein), ließ er fünf der Rebellen hängen, die anderen schickte er in Fußfesseln nach Sibirien in die Bergwerke. Er gründete die berüchtigte Geheimpolizei Dritte Abteilung, ließ Privatbriefe des Dichters Puschkin öffnen (obwohl dieser „in seiner Gnade stand“) und Historikern ist Nikolaus I. als Gendarm Europas bekannt. Im russischen Volk aber nannte man ihn kurz und bündig: *Nicki Knüppel aus dem Sack (Nikolaschka palkin). *

Leo Tolstoj beschrieb diesen Zaren in seinen Erzählungen über die Kriege im Kaukasus (Hadschi Murat) als feist und fett, mit leblosen, trüben Augen und als berüchtigten Frauenjäger. Tolstoj war es auch, der als junger Teilnehmer im Krimkrieg drei Erzählungen schrieb: Sewastopol im Dezember 1854, im Mai 1855 und im August 1855. Nachdem das British Empire unter Queen Victoria Russland den Krieg erklärt hatte (in Koalition mit Frankreich und Piemont-Sardinien als Schutzmacht des Osmanischen Reiches), entstand der Ausdruck anglitschanka gadit – die Engländerin macht Shit. Bis heute findet man dazu drastische Illustrationen im Netz…

Noch bevor russische Truppen Ende Februar 2022 in die Ukraine marschierten, lebte dieser Ausdruck in Russland wieder auf. Wer hierzulande Interesse an der Wahrheit hat, kann deutliche Parallelen zur damaligen politischen Lage entdecken, auch in Bezug auf die Verhaltensweisen des derzeitigen russischen Staatschefs und des historischen Nicki Knüppel aus dem Sack. Obwohl der amtierende durchaus Anerkennung verdient hat, denn nach dem Zusammenbruch der Sowjetunion in den 1990er Jahren unter Jelzin stellte er die Staatlich-keit des verlotterten, hungernden Landes wieder her und trieb den wirtschaftlichen Aufbau voran. Davon kann ich zeugen, lebte ich doch von 1992 – 2008 vor Ort.

Sicher - heute ist längst bekannt, daß die bereits Ende März 2022 in Istanbul laufenden Friedensverhandlungen zwischen Russland und der Ukraine vom britischen Premier und im Namen des US Präsidenten boykottiert wurden. Daniel Ruch, Schweizer Botschafter a.D., sprach gar von Sabotage! Der deutsche General a. D. Harald Kujat kommentierte damals mit den Worten: „Seit April 2022 gehen alle Kriegsopfer in der Ukraine auf das Konto des Westens!“ Der Ausdruck anglitschanka gadit ist seitdem in Russland wieder geläufig. Nun, brandaktuell, treffen sich die Kriegsparteien wieder in Istanbul: Ausgang ungewiss. Doch wird inzwischen auch von einzelnen westlichen Politikern anerkannt, dass Russland eine neutrale Pufferzone zu den Nato-Staaten verlangt und braucht.

Wenn hierzulande gemutmaßt wird, alle Russen würden den Ukraine-Krieg bejahen, so sollte man zur Kenntnis nehmen, dass derartige Aussagen kaum die wirkliche Überzeugung wiedergeben. Seit den Repressionen unter Stalin, seit in jeder zweiten Familie nahe Angehörige im GULAG einsaßen und umkamen und darüber Jahrzehnte lang geschwiegen werden musste, ist der Wahrheitsgehalt öffentlicher Umfragen getrost zu bezweifeln. Hat man hier etwa vergessen, dass seit 2011 auf eine mächtig wachsende zivile Protestbewegung und riesige Demonstrationen in russischen Großstädten immer schärfere Aktionen von Seiten des Staates erfolgten? Dass Knüppel auf Köpfe und Leiber prasselten, wie zur Zeit Nickis I., und der Polizeiapparat derart wuchs, dass heute das Verhältnis von Bürger und Silowiki (Vertreter der Gewalt)1:1 steht?

Offenbar weiß man hier nicht, dass schon Anfang 2022 von Mitarbeitern in jeder staatlich finanzierten Institution, ob im Bereich von Kultur, Wissenschaft, Forschung oder Lehre die schriftliche Zustimmung zur Spezialoperation mit der Ukraine eingefordert wurde! Eine Weigerung hatte den Verlust des Arbeitsplatzes zur Folge, egal welches Renommée oder welchen Rang der Betroffene besaß! Manche Leiter von staatlichen Institutionen zeigten dabei gehöriges Geschick und zeichneten für alle; andere (z.B. staatliche Theater) riefen jeden Mitarbeiter ins Kontor. Nur wenige Personen, die unter dem persönlichem Schutz des Präsidenten standen, konnten sich dieser Zustimmung zum Krieg entziehen. Wissenschaftler und Künstler emigrierten zuhauf. Berlin ist voll mit Geflohenen aus jenem Land, das kriegerisch ins Bruderland einmarschierte! Aber kann denn jeder emigrieren? Die Alten, Familien mit Kindern? Mit guten Freunden, die dort blieben, ist eine Kommunikation nur verschlüsselt möglich, in Nachrichten wie: die Feuer der Inquisition brennen (jeder, der von der offiziellen Doktrin abweicht, ist gefährdet), Ratten verbreiten Krankheiten bezieht sich auf Denunziationen, die in jeder Diktatur aufblühen, wenn sich jemand dem Schussfeld entziehen möchte und im vorauseilenden Gehorsam den Nachbarn anzeigt. Kennen wir das nicht noch aus unseren hitlerdeutschen 1930er Jahren?!

Je mehr im Reich aller Russen in den letzten Jahren von oben geknebelt und geknüppelt wurde, desto mehr Denunziationen griffen um sich. Junge Menschen, die auf Facebook gegen den Krieg posteten, wurden verhaftet. Seit 2023 sitzen u.a. zwei junge russische Theaterfrauen aufgrund der üblen Denunziation eines Kollegen hinter Gittern. Die Inszenierung der Regisseurin Zhenja Berkowitsch und der Autorin Swetlana Petritschuk erhielt Ende 2022 den höchsten Theaterpreis von ganz Russland, die Goldene Maske. Das Stück Finist (Phönix), klarer Falke ist nach dem Motiv eines russischen Märchens geschrieben, fußt aber auf dokumentarischem Material: es verhandelt die Versuchung junger Frauen, auf Islamisten hereinzufallen und sie aus Frust und falsch verstandener Solidarität zu heiraten. Die Anklage hat den Spieß genau umgedreht: Autorin und Regisseurin wurden des Terrorismus beschuldigt! Das Rechtssystem im Land scheint heute noch vergleichbar mit jenem, das Alexander Puschkin vor über 200 Jahren in seiner Erzählung Dubrowski authentisch beschrieb: Wer die Macht hat, regelt das Recht. Man kann die Erzählung des russischen Robin Hood auch deutsch nachlesen (leider, leider hat Puschkin sie nicht beendet).

Andere, erbaulichere Elemente aus der Zeit Puschkins, bzw. von Nikolaus I., dienen allerdings als Gegengewicht zum Alltag: seit Ende 2007 finden in Moskau und St. Petersburg jeden Winter nach dem Vorbild der historischen Adelsbälle große gesellschaftliche Events statt: Puschkinball, Wiener Opernball, jetzt nur noch Opernball genannt. Der Nachwuchs aus begüterten Familien lernt alte Tanzschritte und feine Sitten. Fort mit dem sowjetischen Schmuddelimage! Prächtige Kostümbälle werden nun zum Abschluss jedes Schuljahres aufgeboten. In stilisierten Kostümen der Zeit Nikolajs I. bzw. Puschkins tanzen Schuldirektoren, Lehrer und junge Absolventen. Der Drang nach altem Glanz und Größe (oder eine notwendige Kompensation?) spiegelt sich im Volk. 

Werfen wir jedoch einen Blick auf einige Geschehnisse in der Ukraine ab 2014, die in unserer Presse immer noch verschwiegen werden:  Im Spätsommer 2022 begegnete ich auf Kreta einer Ukrainerin aus der Nordukraine, die wegen des fürchterlichen Nationalismus nach 2014 ihre Heimat verließ. Sie ist nicht die einzige! Ihre Kinder waren erwachsen und zogen nach Polen, sie aber reiste mit einer Freundin weiter Richtung Griechenland, lernte die Sprache, erwarb die Staatsbürgerschaft und ist nun auf Kreta verheiratet.

Natalia erzählte mir, was bei uns kaum zu lesen ist, was jedoch Reporter wie Patrick Baab oder Historiker wie Daniele Ganser schon lange berichtet haben: 2014, als die Bilder der Proteste auf dem Maidan um die Welt gingen, habe die damalige amerikanische Regierung unter Präsident Biden die Vorgänge in Kiew für einen Putsch genutzt: Janukowitsch, der korrupte, doch demokratisch gewählte Präsident der Ukraine wurde gestürzt, die Ereignisse mit Hilfe von Strohmännern und rechten Nationalisten gelenkt, die mit Geld versorgt wurden. Bis es zum Massaker auf dem Maidan kam, als bewaffnete, ihrer Herkunft nach zunächst nicht identifi-zierbare Schützen (es waren v.a. rechte Nationalisten, so der gebürtige Ukrainer und US Bürger Professor N. Petro und Prof. Ivan Katchanovskij) von den Dächern in die Menge schossen.

Im YouTube Kanal Neutrality Studies konnte man am 17.02.2024 hören: Anlässlich des traurigen 10. Jahrestages des Maidan-Massakers, bei dem am 20. Februar 2014 mehr als 100 Menschen durch Scharfschützenfeuer getötet wurden, spreche ich heute mit Ivan Katchanovski, einem ukrainischen (und kanadischen) Politikwissenschaftler an der Univer-sität von Ottawa, der das Massaker detailliert erforscht hat. Letztes Jahr veröffentlichte er das Papier „Die Maidan-Massaker-Prozess und Untersuchungserkenntnisse: Implikationen für den Krieg zwischen der Ukraine und Russland und die Beziehungen“. Kurz gesagt, das Massaker wurde NICHT von den Kräften Victor Janukowytschs begangen, wie in westlichen Medien berichtet, und es gibt schlüssige Beweise dafür, dass die Schützen Teil des ultra-rechten Flügels der Ukraine waren, die dann nach dem Putsch an die Macht kamen. (Link zum Paper).

Wer erinnert sich hierzulande noch daran, dass 2014 im deutschen öffentlichen  Fernsehen von Hunter Biden, Sohn des US-Präsidenten berichtet wurde, der durch dubiose Gas- und Ölgeschäfte in der Ukraine auffiel? Dass damals im deutschen Fernsehen auch Bilder von Ukrainern mit SS-Stahlhelmen auftauchten? In einer Arte-Reportage zu Hilfs-transporten im März 2022 aus Polen über die Westukraine konnte der aufmerksame Zu-schauer an fast allen Häusern die tiefroten Banner von Anhängern des verstorbenen, in München begrabenen, faschistischen Stepan Bandera erkennen. Ausgesprochen wurde es nicht.

Die neue Kreterin Natalia sprach auch über eine Amerikanerin ukrainischer Herkunft, die Röntgenärztin Uljana Suprun, die aus den USA als Gesundheitsministerin rekrutiert wurde und unter dem amerikafreundlichen Präsidenten Poroschenko von 2016-2019 diesen Posten innehatte. Was bitte sollte eine Röntgenärztin aus den USA auf dem Ministerposten der Ukraine?! Streit und Skandal umgaben sie fast täglich in der RADA, dem ukrainischen Parlament. Es wurde gemunkelt, sie diene als Feigenblatt bei der Herstellung biologischer Waffen. Material zu ihr ist bis heute auf YouTube zu finden.

Natalia bezeichnete die ukrainischen Emigrantenkreise in den USA und Kanada zurecht als ultranationalistisch, sie seien Kollaborateure der Nazis bei der Judenvernichtung gewesen und hätten sich nach dem Rückzug der Deutschen rechtzeitig nach Übersee abgesetzt. Das ist wohl bekannt. 

Heute ist das Recherchieren der wahren Geschehnisse von 2014 zwar immer noch mühsam, aber die Wahrheit sickert immer mehr durch, zumal auch Exilukrainer dazu geschrieben und öffentlich gesprochen haben. Die Kanäle SaneVox und Neutrality studies liefern unermüdlich weitere Fakten! Im März 2025 klärte der US-Professor Jeffrey Sachs das Europa-Parlament endlich in allen Details über die kriegerischen Machenschaften bestimmter Kreise innerhalb der englischsprechenden Westmächte auf! 

Kürzlich war im multipolar-magazin zu lesen, wie erschreckend tief unser eigenes Land bereits in**** den Ukraine-Krieg verwickelt ist: Da hieß es:

*„Kriegsplanung von deutschem Boden“ *

Zwei umfassende Beiträge der „New York Times“ und der Londoner „Times“ belegen, was lange bestritten wurde: die tiefe militärische und strategische Verwicklung von Nato-Mitgliedsstaaten in den Ukraine-Krieg. Demnach wird deren Kriegsbeteiligung seit Jahren vom europäischen Hauptquartier der US-Armee in Wiesbaden koordiniert. Für Deutschland stellen sich damit verfassungsrechtliche Fragen.

Und ein Karsten Montag schrieb ebenda am 25. April 2025:

Mehr als drei Jahre nach Beginn des russisch-ukrainischen Krieges berichten zwei große westliche Tageszeitungen über die tiefgreifende Beteiligung von Nato-Militärs an diesem Konflikt. Den Anfang machte die „New York Times“ (NYT). Unter dem Titel „Die Partnerschaft: Die geheime Geschichte des Krieges in der Ukraine“ erschien Ende März ein umfassender *Artikel, der laut Autor Adam Entous auf 300 Interviews mit Regierungs-, Militär- und Geheim-dienstvertretern in der Ukraine, den Vereinigten Staaten sowie weiteren Nato-Partnern basiert. Es handle sich um die „unerzählte Geschichte“ der „versteckten Rolle“ der USA bei den ukrainischen Militäroperationen. *

Wenige Wochen später veröffentlichte die britische Tageszeitung „The Times“ Anfang April einen ähnlichen Beitrag mit dem Titel „Die unerzählte Geschichte der entscheidenden Rolle der britischen Militärchefs in der Ukraine“. Dieser bestätigt die tiefe Verstrickung der Nato-Staaten in Militäroperationen wie der ukrainischen Offensive 2023. Abweichend vom NYT-Artikel bezeichnet er jedoch die britischen Militärchefs als die „Köpfe“ der „Anti-Putin“-Koalition. Einigkeit herrscht wiederum bei der Frage, wer für den Misserfolg der Operationen verantwortlich ist: Dies sei eindeutig der Ukraine zuzuschreiben. Auch im Times-Beitrag wird auf die besondere Rolle des europäischen US-Hauptquartiers im hessischen Wiesbaden bei der Koordination der Einsätze und den Waffenlieferungen hingewiesen.

Na also! Es gibt unter den aus der Ukraine Geflüchteten hier allerdings eine große Mehrheit, die von diesen Fakten weder etwas wissen, noch wissen wollen. Amerika und die Heimat der Anglitschanka ist für sie das Gelobte Land und wehe, du sprichst darüber, dann wirst du sofort der russischen Propaganda verdächtig. Wie Nicki mittlerweile daheim den Knüppel schwingt, interessiert sie auch nicht. 

Wieso wird hier nicht untersucht, wieso wird verschwiegen, dass Alexej Nawalny für einen englischen Dienst arbeitete – woher erhielt er das viele Geld für seine Kampagnen? Wo leben nun seine Witwe und die Kinder? Auf der Insel im nebligen Avalon/ Albion… 

Ein letztes Beispiel aus dem Bereich der Kultur zum Verständnis des leider so aktuellen Ausdrucks Die Engländerin macht Shit:  Anfang 2024 wurde im staatlichen Sender ONE (ARD) eine Serie der BBC zu frühen Erzählungen von Michail Bulgakow ausgestrahlt:** Aufzeichnungen eines jungen Arztes. Die BBC verhunzte den in Kiew geborenen Arzt und weltberühmten Autor derart, dass dem Zuschauer schlecht wurde: Mit dem Titel A Young Doctor‘s Notebook verfilmte sie Bulgakows frühe Erzählungen über die Nöte eines jungen Arztes in der bettelarmen sowjetrussischen Provinz in den 1920er Jahren hypernaturalistisch, blut-, dreck- und eitertriefend. Pseudokyrillische Titel und Balalaika Geklimper begleiteten das Leiden von schwer traumatisierten Menschen im russischen Bürgerkrieg oder Abscheulichkeiten, wie das Amputieren eines Mädchenbeines mit einer Baumsäge - ausgestrahlt vom 1. Deutschen Fernsehen! Michail Bulgakow hätte sich im Grabe umgedreht.

Als Autor beherrschte Bulgakow die Kunst der Groteske ebenso wie hochlyrische Schilderungen. Seine Prosa und seine Theaterstücke aber wurden Zeit seines Lebens von der Sowjetmacht verstümmelt - und post mortem auch von seinen ukrainischen Landsleuten: sein schönes Museum, das ehemalige Domizil der Familie Bulgakow in Kiew am Andrejew-Steig, das mit seinem ersten Roman Die weiße Garde (Kiew vor 100 Jahren im Strudel auch ultranationalistischer Strömungen) und der berühmten Dramatisierung Die Tage der Turbins in die große Literatur einzog, dieses Museum wurde abgewickelt und geschlossen, weil Bulgakow angeblich schlecht über die Ukraine geschrieben hätte! 

Ein Glück jedoch, dass die bedeutenden Werke Bulgakows seit nun drei Dekaden von russischsprachigen Philologen beharrlich in ihrer ursprünglichen Fassung wieder hergestellt wurden. Seine großen Romane Die weiße Garde und Meister und Margarita seien in der hervorragenden deutschen Übersetzung von Alexander Nitzberg jedem Interessierten ans Herz gelegt!

Die obigen Ausführungen sind keinesfalls eine Rechtfertigung des Krieges, es geht vielmehr um Hintergründe, Fakten und Machenschaften, die in der Regel bis heute bei uns verschwiegen werden! Obwohl es nun sonnenklar und öffentlich ist, dass bestimmte Inter-essengruppen der englischsprachigen Westmächte die hochgefährliche Konfrontationspolitik mit Russland zu verantworten haben: die Engländerin macht Shit…Und wir? Wir schweigen, glauben der immer noch laufenden Propaganda und wehren uns nicht gegen diese üble Russenphobie?! Ich erinnere mich noch lebhaft an die Nachkriegszeit im Ruhrgebiet, als der Ton ruppig war und Dreck und Trümmer unsere Sicht beherrschten. Auch uns kleinen Kindern gegenüber wurde von den bösen Russen gesprochen, als hätten diese unser Land überfallen.

Ja – es waren viele Geflüchtete aus dem Osten hier gestrandet, und diese hatten Unsägliches hinter sich. Lew Kopelew, der den Einmarsch der Roten Armee in Ostpreußen miterlebte und Gräuel vergebens zu verhindern suchte, wurde noch im April 1945 verhaftet und wegen Mitleid mit dem Feind zu 10 Jahren Lager verurteilt. Viele Jahre später erschienen seine Erinnerungen Aufbewahren für alle Zeit – auch auf Deutsch. Über die mindestens 27 Mio Opfer in der damaligen Sowjetunion und über die deutschen Aggressoren, die damals mit Mord und Raub die bösen Russen, sowjetische Zivilisten überfielen, wurde in den 1950er Jahren, im zerbombten und dreckigen Pott kein einziges Wort verloren. Der Spieß wurde einfach umgedreht. Von der Blockade Leningrads erfuhr ich erst als Erwachsene, anno 1974, als Austauschstudentin vor Ort.

Exakt vor 10 Jahren wurde es jedoch möglich – herzlichen Dank der damaligen stell-vertretenden tatarischen Kulturministerin Frau Irada Ayupova! – mein dokumentarisches Antikriegsstück mit Schicksalen von Kriegskindern – sowjetischen, jüdischen, deutschen – in Kasan, der Hauptstadt von Tatarstan, zweisprachig auf die Bühne des dortigen Jugendtheaters zu bringen. Wir spielten 15 Vorstellungen und einige tausend Jugendliche im Saal verstummten und verstanden, dass Krieg furchtbar ist. Hier und heute will leider kein Theater das Stück umsetzen…

Wir Menschen brauchen Frieden und keine Aufrüstung für neue Kriege! Der gute alte Aischylos schrieb einst in seinem Stück Die Perser: Wahrheit ist das erste Opfer eines Krieges. Leider ist dies immer noch genauso aktuell wie damals. Pfui Teufel!

Happy July 14th, everyone. America narrowly averted a civil war last night and I'm pretty happy about that. I was impressed by how well Stacker News covered the biggest breaking news event of the site's existence. People were pulling together lots of sources and offering generally measured thoughts.

Common psychological biases that bitcoiners have

Excerpt

One of the primary reasons I got involved with markets is my interest in psychology. Humans are a fickle bunch, and it's fascinating to observe the human condition in such a clear, mathematical way.

I get your point, but this seems to me one of the (rare) differences where "technically possible but empirically infeasible" vs "technically impossible" matters a lot.

Wer einhundert Prozent seines Einkommens abgeben muss, ist sicher ein Sklave, oder? Aber ab wieviel Prozent Pflichtabgabe ist er denn kein Sklave mehr? Ab wann ist er frei und selbst-bestimmt?

Wer definieren möchte, was ein Sklave ist, sollte nicht bei Pflichtabgaben verweilen, denn die Fremdbestimmtheit geht viel weiter. Vielfach hat der gewöhnliche Mensch wenig Einfluss darauf, wie er und seine Familie misshandelt wird. Es wird verfügt, welche Bildung, welche Nahrung, welche Medikamente, welche Impfungen und welche Kriege er zu erdulden hat. Hierbei erkennt der gewöhnliche Mensch aber nur, wer ihm direkt etwas an-tut. So wie der Gefolterte bestenfalls seinen Folterer wahrnimmt, aber nicht den, in dessen Auftrag dieser handelt, so haben die vorbezeichnet Geschädigten mit Lehrern, „Experten“, Ärzten und Politikern zu tun. Ebenfalls ohne zu wissen, in wessen Auftrag diese Leute handeln. „Führungssysteme“ sind so konzipiert, dass für viele Menschen bereits kleinste wahrgenommene Vorteile genügen, um einem anderen Menschen Schlimmes anzutun.

Aber warum genau wird Menschen Schlimmes angetan? Die Gründe dafür sind stets dieselben. Der Täter hat ein Motiv und Motivlagen können vielfältig sein. 

Wer also ein Motiv hat, ein Geschehen zu beeinflussen, motiviert andere zur Unterstützung. Wem es gelingt, bei anderen den Wunsch zu erwecken, das zu tun, was er möchte, ist wirklich mächtig. Und es sind die Mächtigen im Hintergrund, welche die Darsteller auf den Bühnen dieser Welt dazu nutzen, die Interessen der wirklich Mächtigen durchzusetzen. Insbesondere die letzten fünf Jahre haben eindrucksvoll gezeigt, wie willfährig Politiker, Ärzte, Experten und viele weitere ihre jeweiligen Aufträge gegen die Bevölkerung durchsetz(t)en.

Und so geschieht es auch beim aktuellen Krieg, der stellvertretend auf dem europäischen Kontinent ausgetragen wird. Parolen wie „nie wieder Krieg“ gehören der Vergangenheit an. Stattdessen ist nunmehr wieder der Krieg und nur der Krieg geeignet, um „Aggressionen des Gegners abzuwehren“ und um „uns zu verteidigen“. 

Das hat mindestens drei gute Gründe:

1. Mit einem Krieg können Sie einem anderen etwas wegnehmen, was er freiwillig nicht herausrückt. Auf diese Weise kommen Sie an dessen Land, seine Rohstoffe und sein Vermögen. Sie können ihn beherrschen und Ihren eigenen Einfluss ausbauen. Je mehr Ihnen gehört, um so besser ist das für Sie. Sie müssen sich weniger abstimmen und Widersacher werden einfach ausgeschaltet.
2. Wenn etwas über einen langen Zeitraum aufgebaut wurde, ist es irgendwann auch einmal fertig. Um aber viel Geld verdienen und etwas nach eigenen Vorstellungen gestalten zu können, muss immer wieder etwas Neues erschaffen werden, und da stört das Alte nur. Demzufolge ist ein Krieg ein geeignetes Mittel, etwas zu zerstören. Und das Schöne ist, dass man von Beginn an viel Geld verdient. Denn man muss dem indoktrinierten Volk nur vormachen, dass der Krieg „unbedingt erforderlich“ sei, um das Volk dann selbst bereitwillig für diesen Krieg bezahlen und auch sonst engagiert mitwirken zu lassen. Dann kann in Rüstung und „Kriegstauglichkeit“ investiert werden. Deutschland soll dem Vernehmen nach bereits in einigen Jahren „kriegstauglich“ sein. Der Gegner wartet sicher gerne mit seinen Angriffen, bis es so weit ist.
3. Und nicht zu vergessen ist, dass man die vielen gewöhnlichen Menschen loswird. Schon immer wurden Populationen „reguliert“. Das macht bei Tieren ebenfalls so, indem man sie je nach „Erfordernis“ tötet. Und bei kollabierenden Systemen zu Zeiten von Automatisierung und KI unter Berücksichtigung der Klimarettung wissen doch mittlerweile alle, dass es viel zu viele Menschen auf dem Planeten gibt. Wenn jemand durch medizinische Misshandlungen oder auch durch einen Krieg direkt stirbt, zahlt dies auf die Lösung des Problems ein. Aber auch ein „Sterben auf Raten“ ist von großem Vorteil, denn durch die „fachmännische Behandlung von Verletzten“ bis zu deren jeweiligen Tode lässt sich am Leid viel verdienen.

Sie erkennen, dass es sehr vorteilhaft ist, Kriege zu führen, oder? Und diese exemplarisch genannten drei Gründe könnten noch beliebig erweitert werden.

Das Einzige, was gegen Kriegsereignisse sprechen könnte, wäre, dass man selbst niemandem etwas wegnehmen möchte, was ihm gehört, und dass man seinen Mitmenschen nicht schaden, geschweige denn diese verletzen oder gar töten möchte. 

In diesem Zusammenhang könnte man auch erkennen, dass die, die nach Krieg rufen, selbst nicht kämpfen. Auch deren Kinder nicht. Man könnte erkennen, dass man selbst nur benutzt wird, um die Interessen anderer durchzusetzen. Wie beim Brettspiel Schach hat jede Figur eine Funktion und keinem Spieler ist das Fortbestehen eines Bauern wichtig, wenn seine Entnahme dem Spielgewinn dient. Wer Krieg spielt, denkt sicher ähnlich.

Meine beiden Großväter waren Soldaten im zweiten Weltkrieg und erlebten die Grausamkeiten des Krieges und der Gefangenschaft so intensiv, dass sie mit uns Enkeln zu keiner Zeit hierüber sprechen konnten, da sie wohl wussten, dass uns allein ihre Erzählungen zutiefst traumatisiert hätten. Die Opas waren analog dem, was wir ihnen an Information abringen konnten, angeblich nur Sanitäter. Sanitäter, wie auch die meisten Großväter aus der Nachbarschaft. Wer aber jemals beobachten konnte, wie unbeholfen mein Opa ein Pflaster aufgebracht hat, der konnte sich denken, dass seine vermeintliche Tätigkeit als Sanitäter eine Notlüge war, um uns die Wahrheit nicht vermitteln zu müssen.

Mein Opa war mein bester Freund und mir treibt es unverändert die Tränen in die Augen, sein erlebtes Leid nachzuempfinden. Und trotz aller seelischen und körperlichen Verletzungen hat er nach seiner Rückkehr aus der Kriegshölle mit großem Erfolg daran gearbeitet, für seine Familie zu sorgen.

Manchmal ist es m. E. besser, die Dinge vom vorhersehbaren Ende aus zu betrachten, um zu entscheiden, welche Herausforderungen man annimmt und welche man besser ablehnt. Es brauchte fast 80 Jahre, um die Deutschen erneut dafür zu begeistern, Ihre Leben „für die gute Sache“ zu opfern. Was heutzutage aber anders ist als früher: Einerseits sind die Politiker dieser Tage sehr durchschaubar geworden. Aber in einem ähnlichen Verhältnis, wie die schauspielerischen Leistungen der Politiker abgenommen haben, hat die Volksverblödung zugenommen. 

Denken Sie nicht nach. Denken Sie stattdessen vor. Und denken Sie selbst. Für sich, Ihre Lieben und alle anderen Menschen. Andernfalls wird die Geschichte, so wie sie von meinen Opas (und Omas) erlebt wurde, mit neuen Technologien und „zeitgemäßen Methoden“ wiederholt. Dies führt zweifelsfrei zu Not und Tod.

The African sun is warming things up here at Kilimanjaro, but there's still a crispness in the morning air. My fleece jacket came in handy after a refreshing shower! I started my day with a perfect combo: coffee and breakfast on the rooftop, with a stunning view as my backdrop.

Speaking of tech, today was dedicated to getting my workspace set up. First on the agenda: Thunderbird, my trusty email client from my Linux days. It took a few hours to wrangle everything, especially the S/MIME encryption. Feeling a bit lost in the weeds, I decided to switch gears and embrace OpenPGP for end-to-end encryption – a simpler solution in my opinion.

Just as I finished conquering Thunderbird, Kilimanjaro itself decided to make an appearance! The clouds parted to reveal the majestic peak, and I couldn't resist capturing the moment with a couple of photos.

Today's another day with no set plans, just taking things minute by minute. Soaking up the beautiful scenery, the cool mornings, and the positive vibes. As soon as my foot heals, I'll be out exploring the town, snapping photos, and enjoying a delicious coffee at a local cafe.

Speaking of exploring, the world of NFTs has piqued my interest. I have a few on Opensea and WAX Blockchain, but I'm curious – where else are people showcasing their digital art? Let me know in the comments where you buy and sell your NFTs, or if they're just patiently waiting for a better future. I'd love to hear your NFT stories!

Life has a way of taking us on unexpected journeys. So, here's to embracing the unexpected, making the most of each situation, and maybe even finding a small online job to boost my budget. Wishing you all a wonderful day – and remember, don't stress yourself!

Estamos numa época tão estranha da humanidade…

Onde alguns querem reescrever a história, em vez de aprender e evoluir com a mesma. São com os erros que se cresce.

Onde o termo fascista é sinónimo de alguém com uma opinião diferente da sua, sem minimamente saber o real significado dessa palavra.

Onde defendem uma liberdade, que proíba o contraditório.

Onde não se discutem ideias, mas sim combatem ideias.

Onde o ambientalmente sustentável é substituir árvores e zonas verdes por estruturas em aço e zonas negras.

Onde os políticos constroem casas ou cidades, literalmente, em cima dos rios mas depois a culpa das cheias é as alterações climáticas.

Onde os alimentos tem menos importância que um peido de uma vaca.

Onde pessoas defendem que a solução para o aquecimento, é morrer de frio.

Onde a igualdade é favorecer um grupo, em detrimento de outro.

Onde o essencial é viver para consumir, em vez de usufruir.

Onde o importante é ser rico e ostentar essa mesma riqueza, mesmo que tenha de espezinhar outros para a conquistar.

Onde o mais importante é parecer em vez de ser.

Onde políticos defendem que o conhecimento pode levar a escolhas erradas, defendem o carneirismo.

Onde um político define o que é verdade ou mentira, limitando o que as pessoas podem expressar. Mas quem controla o controlador.

Onde os revisores da verdade deixaram de estar num gabinete, passando a ser um exército de jovens atrás de um teclado.

Onde, são propostas e aprovadas limitações de liberdade, sem esclarecimento ou divulgação pública. Pior que a obscuridade, é desinteresse da comunidade por liberdade.

Onde a censura é o novo normal, defender o contrário é que é censurável.

Onde a imprensa é tão livre como uma pomba dentro de sua gaiola.

Onde, quem comete o crime é protegido, quem o denúncia é perseguido.

Onde o certo é pensar com a cabeça dos outros, sem questionar.

Onde os pais delegaram o papel de educar às escolas e aos ecrãs azuis.

Onde a escola deixou de ser um lugar de conhecimento e/ou do desenvolvimento do espírito crítico.

Onde as crianças crescem doutrinados por políticos e por AI.

Onde a sociedade é programada e com um destino predefinido, como um rato dentro da sua roda.

Onde o maior erro, é pretender construir seres que não cometem erros, que não tenham vícios. Quando isso acontecer, deixamos de ser humanos. A imperfeição é a essência dos seres humanos, é o que nos difere das máquinas.

Onde só se ensina a não cair, em vez de ajudar e incentivar a levantar.

Onde se suspende a liberdade de circulação e os direitos mais básicos, sem ninguém questionar.

Onde a privacidade é crime.

Onde Satoshi é excomungado, mas Miguel Tiago é idoleterado.

Onde a moeda é utilizado como uma arma.

Onde uma guerra é digladiada entre zeros e uns, sem o comum mortal aperceber da sua existência.

Onde crianças caem em campos de batalha, como folhas em pleno outono.

Onde o direito ao Livre-arbítrio está sob ameaça.

... something else

This is the final image. Or is it? Likely, it is not. I have already started on a perfect version of my Mother Earth painting.

Of course, there is no such thing as a perfect painting. What I mean is that I already started on a vector version of Mother Earth. You're familiar with vector vs. pixel, right?

But let's start at the beginning, not the end.

This here is a pic from the sketching phase. I am not one who can just magically and with a few strokes produce an amazing sketch of something that resembles a human. There are artists out there that do this wonderfully. It's amazing but it is not me (unfortunately).

Here I am starting to color in the sketch with a watercolor brush. This is all done in Procreate App on an iPad Pro. The coloring is on a separate layer with the pencil sketch set to multiply to shine through the colors. That's why the pencil strokes now are black. I like that look.

And here, I am almost done. Just need to decide on the background color. And as you can see from the gif and video I didn't really decide. Though at the moment I am favoring that muted pinkish red - LOL

Which color is your favorite?

Here you can see the whole process in a timelapse. Above pictures were grabbed from it to detail the process a little.

Blackstone, the world’s largest alternative asset manager, has entered the Bitcoin space with a $1.08 million investment in BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF. This is a big deal for both Wall Street and the Bitcoin world.

Blackstone has made its first direct investment in bitcoin through regulated financial products. A May 20, 2025, SEC filing revealed that the firm purchased 23,094 shares of the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF).

BlackStone has bought 23,094 shares of BlackRock’s IBIT — SEC

While $1.08 million is a small drop in the bucket compared to Blackstone’s $1.2 trillion in assets under management, this is a big deal for the private equity giant which has been skeptical of bitcoin in the past.

In 2019, the company’s CEO, Steve Schwarzman, said he didn’t understand Bitcoin. “I was raised in a world where someone needs to control currencies,” he said, admitting he struggled to understand the technology.

Fast forward to 2025, and it is now one of the many institutional investors taking bitcoin seriously — but doing so through cautious, regulated channels.

The investment was made through Blackstone’s $2.63 billion Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund (BTMIX), which invests in a wide range of financial instruments.

Instead of buying bitcoin directly, Blackstone chose to get exposure through a bitcoin ETF — which is how many large institutions are approaching the digital asset. Spot Bitcoin ETFs like IBIT allow investors to track the price of bitcoin without having to hold the digital asset itself.

There are several advantages to this approach. ETFs trade like stocks, are regulated by the SEC and take care of complex issues like custody and compliance. This makes them more attractive for firms that are new to Bitcoin or still wary of the risks.

Related: Bitcoin ETFs Provide Convenient Price Exposure, But At What Cost?

Blackstone’s choice of a bitcoin ETF shows how effective these products are at connecting traditional finance to the digital age.

In addition to IBIT, Blackstone also disclosed smaller investments in two other digital-asset-related companies:

• 9,889 shares of the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO), valued at about $181,166.
• 4,300 shares of Bitcoin Depot Inc. (BTM), a bitcoin ATM operator, worth approximately $6,300.

Together, these are a tiny fraction of Blackstone’s portfolio but show growing interest and exploration into the space.

Since its launch in January 2024, BlackRock’s IBIT ETF has become the top-performing Bitcoin ETF in the U.S. As of mid-May 2025, the fund has seen over $46.1 billion in net inflows with no outflows since early April.

IBIT is ahead of other major ETFs like Fidelity’s FBTC and ARK’s 21Shares Bitcoin ETF.

But the trend is clear: big firms are getting comfortable with regulated bitcoin products. Industry insiders see Blackstone’s move as part of a broader shift in institutional sentiment towards bitcoin.

This is a small investment but it matters because of who is making it. Blackstone is known for being conservative and risk-averse.

Its decision to put even a tiny amount of capital into Bitcoin ETFs means tradfi companies are getting more confident in bitcoin as an asset class. Blackstone is dipping its toe in the water, and even a small step is significant given its size and influence.

In a world full of constant stimulation, overflowing schedules, and ever-growing to-do lists, our physical spaces often bear the brunt of our busy lives. The clutter in our homes and workplaces can slowly pile up until it becomes overwhelming, contributing not only to a chaotic environment but also to increased levels of stress and anxiety.

But what if the simple act of removing junk and organizing your space could bring clarity to your mind, lift your mood, and create a lasting positive impact on your mental health? Decluttering isn't just about aesthetics—it’s about mental wellness. Junk removal can be a powerful tool to help you take control of your space and, in turn, your mindset. Let’s explore how clearing the clutter can boost mental health and transform your daily life.

The Psychological Impact of Clutter Clutter isn’t just stuff—it’s unmade decisions and postponed actions. Psychologists have long understood the connection between our environment and our emotional well-being. Clutter bombards our minds with excessive stimuli, making it difficult to focus or relax. It sends a signal that work is never done, which can lead to chronic stress.

A study published in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin found that women who described their homes as cluttered or full of unfinished projects were more likely to be fatigued and depressed than those who described their homes as restorative and restful. The same study found that cortisol levels—the body’s main stress hormone—were significantly higher in women living in cluttered environments.

Additionally, according to a UCLA study, families living in homes with a high density of household objects experienced increased levels of anxiety. The psychological toll of clutter isn’t minor; it has real, measurable effects on our mental health.

Junk Removal as an Act of Self-Care Self-care isn't just about spa days or bubble baths—it's about creating systems and habits that support your well-being. Removing clutter and excess junk from your living or working space can be an essential act of self-care, sending your brain a clear message: you deserve a clean, peaceful environment.

The physical act of junk removal creates a sense of accomplishment. Whether it’s donating unused clothing, throwing away broken items, or clearing out the garage, every bag removed is a step toward emotional relief. The process can be surprisingly cathartic, especially for those dealing with stress, grief, or major life transitions.

Why Clutter Creates Mental Clutter Clutter and disorganization can reduce our ability to process information. Researchers at Princeton University Neuroscience Institute found that physical clutter competes for your attention, resulting in decreased performance and increased stress. When your environment is chaotic, your mind tends to mimic that chaos.

Every time you walk past a cluttered desk or disorganized closet, your brain registers it as a task you haven't completed. Over time, this leads to mental fatigue. You might find yourself feeling constantly behind, overwhelmed, or unable to concentrate—even when you're not consciously thinking about the mess.

On the flip side, a tidy, clutter-free environment can promote mental clarity, boost productivity, and help foster a greater sense of control and calm.

How Junk Removal Enhances Mood There’s a distinct emotional payoff to junk removal. Many people report feeling lighter, freer, and happier after decluttering a space. Here's why: 1. Reduces Anxiety and Stress Too much clutter can create a constant low-grade stress that gnaws away at your peace of mind. By physically removing items that no longer serve a purpose, you're also removing sources of tension. 2. Improves Focus and Productivity When your environment is clear, your mind follows suit. A cleaner space supports sharper thinking and better decision-making. Whether you're working from home or studying, a decluttered area can significantly enhance your ability to concentrate. 3. Boosts Self-Esteem Clutter can carry feelings of guilt or shame—reminders of undone tasks, unused purchases, or poor organizational habits. Taking the step to clean up can restore confidence and create a sense of achievement.

1. Encourages Mindfulness Decluttering forces you to be present. You have to examine each item, reflect on its usefulness, and make a conscious decision about its place in your life. This process promotes mindfulness and intentional living.

The Decluttering Process: Step-by-Step for Mental Clarity If the idea of decluttering your entire home feels overwhelming, start small. Begin with one drawer, one shelf, or one room. Here's a practical approach to get started:

Step 1: Set a Clear Intention Know why you're decluttering. Is it to feel less stressed? To improve your focus? Having a specific goal will keep you motivated. Step 2: Sort Items into Categories Use the classic “keep, donate, toss” system. Be honest with yourself about what adds value to your life. Step 3: Focus on One Area at a Time Avoid jumping from room to room. Focus your energy on one space to see progress quickly and stay motivated.

Step 4: Remove the Junk Promptly Once you've sorted items for removal, don’t let them linger. Hire a junk removal service or take them to a donation center right away. Step 5: Maintain Your Space Set a monthly reminder to reassess clutter. Make it a habit, not a one-time task.

Professional Help: The Role of Junk Removal Services For some people, the physical and emotional burden of clearing out clutter is too overwhelming to tackle alone. This is where professional junk removal services come in. These services not only handle the heavy lifting but also offer a judgment-free way to transform your space quickly and efficiently. By outsourcing the task, you reduce stress and avoid decision fatigue. It’s a practical solution for busy professionals, seniors downsizing, or those recovering from emotional trauma like the loss of a loved one.

The mental relief from seeing a room go from chaotic to clean in just a few hours is worth the investment. Plus, many services are eco-friendly and donate reusable items to charities, adding another layer of purpose to the process.

Real-Life Impacts: Statistics that Speak Decluttering doesn’t just feel good—it’s backed by data. Consider this: • According to a study by the National Association of Professional Organizers, 54% of Americans are overwhelmed by clutter, and 78% have no idea what to do with it [source]. • A report from the Journal of Environmental Psychology found that people with clean homes are happier and more relaxed, with higher activity levels and lower levels of cortisol [source]. These statistics highlight how deeply our environment influences our emotional health—and how important it is to reclaim control of your space.

Decluttering in the Digital Age While physical clutter is the most obvious, digital clutter can also affect your mental state. Overflowing email inboxes, unorganized files, and constant notifications can leave you feeling scattered and distracted. Take time to regularly clean up your digital life by: • Unsubscribing from unwanted emails • Deleting unused apps • Organizing desktop files and folders • Turning off non-essential notifications Just like physical spaces, a clean digital environment supports a clearer, more focused mind.

When Clutter Signals Something Deeper While decluttering is beneficial, it’s important to recognize when excessive clutter or hoarding behavior may be a sign of deeper mental health issues. Conditions such as depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can manifest in the inability to discard items or maintain an organized space. If clutter feels insurmountable or leads to distress and dysfunction, it may be time to seek support from a mental health professional. Therapy can help address the root causes and develop strategies for long-term change.

Final Thoughts: Clearing the Path to Mental Well-Being Junk removal and decluttering may seem like simple tasks, but their effects on your mental health can be profound. By reducing chaos in your environment, you invite peace, focus, and emotional clarity into your life. Whether you choose to tackle the clutter yourself or enlist the help of professionals, taking the first step is often the hardest—and the most transformative. Your environment is a mirror of your mind. Clear the clutter, and you’ll often find that clarity, joy, and calm aren’t far behind.

If one knows exactly what to do to alleviate one's pain, comfort oneself, and emerge more or less unscathed from Adversity, I think it can be said that one has reached a fairly high level of Wisdom in Life.

Chef's notes

Most Santa Maria tri tip roast recipes call for red wine vinegar and dijon mustard. I prefer other ingredients in place of those, but should you like those flavors and textures, they are more traditional.

Keep in mind when cooking and slicing, that the grain of tri-tip runs in 3 directions and the meat is unevenly thick. Pulling the roast when the thin end achieves well done, the thicker end will be a nice medium rare. When slicing, change direction to cut against the grain as you transition through for the most tender outcome.

Details

• ⏲️ Prep time: 10 minutes
• 🍳 Cook time: 1 hour ( with grill heating time)
• 🍽️ Servings: 4-6

Ingredients

• 1.5 - 2 lb Tri-Tip Roast
• 1 Tbsp Kosher Salt
• 1 tsp Black Pepper
• 1 tsp Cayanne Pepper ( substitute all or some with smoked paprika for a milder taste)
• 1 tsp Garlic Powder
• 1 tsp Onion Powder
• 1 Tbsp Rosemary
• 2 Tbsp Stone Ground Mustard
• 1 Tbsp Rice Vinegar
• 2-3 Cloves Garlic, Minced

Directions

1. Mix all dry spices.
2. Pat the roast dry and coat on all sides with seasdoning mix.
3. Cover loosely and allow to sit in fridge for 8-12 hours.
4. Preheat grill to 475 degrees F, allow meat to sit at room temp during this process.
5. Mix vinegar, mustard, and minced garlic.
6. Place meat on hot grill, fat side down and coat the upward side with mustard mix
7. Grill approximately 7-10 minutes.
8. Flip meat, repeat coating and grilling.
9. Flip once more and grill for 2-3 minutes to caramelize the glaze and until the fat begins to render.
10. Remove from grill and let the roast rest for 5 minutes before slicing,
11. Serve with grilled veggies or any side of your choice. This is a bit spicy so it goes well with a salsa fresca and tortillas, too.

NIP-02 — أنماط المفاتيح العامة

رقم التعريف (NIP): 02
العنوان: أنماط المفاتيح العامة
الحالة: نهائي
المؤلف: fiatjaf
التاريخ: 2020-12-10

---

الملخص

يقترح هذا المستند نمطًا معياريًا لطريقة تمثيل المفاتيح العامة (public keys) في نُستر — يُعرف باسم npub — لتسهيل مشاركتها وقراءتها من قبل البشر، تمامًا كما يتم تمثيل عناوين البيتكوين بـ bech32.

---

التنسيق المقترح

نقترح استخدام bech32 لترميز المفاتيح العامة، حيث يكون التنسيق كالتالي:

npub1<سلسلة bech32>

على سبيل المثال:

npub1qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqzv9sx

هذا الشكل يمكن نسخه بسهولة، والتعرف عليه بصريًا، والتعامل معه دون الوقوع في أخطاء النسخ الشائعة للمفاتيح بصيغ hex.

---

السبب

• الشكل hex التقليدي للمفاتيح العامة (مثل 32e...af1) صعب القراءة.
• bech32 أسهل للمشاركة عبر الرسائل أو الوسائط الاجتماعية.
• وجود بادئة npub1 يوضح فورًا أن السلسلة تمثل مفتاحًا عامًا في نظام نُستر.

---

ملاحظات إضافية

• نفس المبدأ يُستخدم أيضًا مع أنواع أخرى مثل note (لتمثيل معرفات الأحداث) وnsec (للمفاتيح الخاصة).
• هذه الصيغ لا تغيّر البيانات الأصلية، بل فقط تمثلها بطريقة أسهل وأكثر أمانًا للبشر.

---

„Warum der Weltfrieden von Deutschland abhängt“ steht auf dem Cover. Sicher: Ein Verlag will verkaufen. Superlative machen sich da immer gut. Der Weltfrieden und Deutschland. „Wie das“, wird mancher fragen, über den Atlantik schauen, nach Kiew oder gar nach Moskau und nach Peking, und die 24 Euro ausgeben. Ich kann nur sagen: Das ist gut investiert, wenn man verstehen will, was uns die Nachrichtensprecher und ihre Kritiker im Moment alles um die Ohren hauen. Ich durfte die Texte von Hauke Ritz schon lesen und ein Vorwort schreiben, in dem es nicht nur um Krieg und Frieden geht, sondern auch um die Frage, warum sich manche, die einst „links“ zu stehen glaubten, inzwischen mit einigen Konservativen besser vertragen als mit den alten Genossen – nicht nur bei der Gretchenfrage auf dem Cover. Nun aber zu meinem Vorwort.    

1. Der Leser

Hauke Ritz hat meinen Blick auf die Welt verändert. In diesem Satz stecken zwei Menschen. Ich fange mit dem Leser an, weil jeder Text auf einen Erfahrungsberg trifft, gewachsen durch all das, was Herkunft, soziale Position und Energievorrat ermöglichen. Ob ein Autor dort auf Resonanz stößt, kann er nicht beeinflussen. Also zunächst etwas zu mir. Ich bin auf der Insel Rügen aufgewachsen – in einer kommunistischen Familie und mit Karl Marx. Das Sein bestimmt das Bewusstsein. In der Schule haben wir Kinder uns über ein anderes Marx-Zitat amüsiert, das in einem der Räume groß an der Wand stand. „Die Philosophen haben die Welt nur verschieden interpretiert, es kömmt drauf an, sie zu verändern.“ Kömmt. Dieser Marx. Was der sich traut.

Das Schulhaus ist nach 1990 schnell abgerissen worden. Bauland mit Meerblick, fünf Minuten bis zum Strand. Marx stand nun zwar kaum noch in der Zeitung, Eltern, Freunde und Bekannte waren sich aber trotzdem sicher, dass er Recht hat. Das Sein bestimmt das Bewusstsein. Hier die Ostdeutschen, auf Jahre gebunden im Kampf um Arbeitsplatz und Qualifikationsnachweise, Rente und Grundstück, und dort Glücksritter aus dem Westen, die sich das Dorf kaufen und nach ihrem Bilde formen. Das Kapital live in Aktion gewissermaßen.

Ich selbst bin damals eher durch Zufall an der Universität gelandet und habe dort eine Spielart der Medienforschung kennengelernt, die in den USA erfunden worden war, um den Zweiten Weltkrieg nicht nur auf dem Schlachtfeld zu gewinnen, sondern auch in den Köpfen. Diese akademische Disziplin konnte und wollte nach ihrer Ankunft in der alten Bundesrepublik nichts mit Marx am Hut haben. Zum einen war da dieser neue Freund auf der anderen Atlantikseite, moralisch sauber und damit ein Garant gegen den Vorwurf, mitgemacht zu haben und vielleicht sogar Goebbels und sein Postulat von den Medien als Führungsmittel immer noch in sich zu tragen. Je lauter dieser Vorwurf wurde, desto stärker zog es deutsche Propagandaforscher, die sich zur Tarnung Kommunikations- oder Publizistikwissenschaftler nannten, in die USA.

Zum anderen verbannte der Radikalenerlass jeden Hauch von Marxismus aus dem universitären Leben. Selbst Postmarxisten wie Adorno und Horkheimer mit ihrer Frankfurter Schule, Karl Mannheim oder Pierre Bourdieu, auf die ich bei der Suche nach einer neuen intellektuellen Heimat fast zwangsläufig gestoßen bin, spielten in den Lehrveranstaltungen kaum eine Rolle und damit auch nicht in Dissertationen, Habilitationen, Fachzeitschriften. Peer Review wird schnell zur Farce, wenn jeder Gutachter weiß, dass bestimmte Texte nur von mir und meinen Schülern zitiert werden. Ich habe dann versucht, die Kollegen mit Foucault zu überraschen, aber auch das hat nicht lange funktioniert.

Zu Hauke Ritz ist es von da immer noch weit. Ich habe eine Lungenembolie gebraucht (2013), zwei Auftritte bei KenFM (2018) und die Attacken, die auf diese beiden Interviews zielten sowie auf meinen Blog Medienrealität, gestartet 2017 und zeitgleich mit großen Abendveranstaltungen aus der virtuellen Welt in die Uni-Wirklichkeit geholt, um bereit zu sein für diesen Denker. Corona nicht zu vergessen. Ich erinnere mich noch genau an diesen Abend. Narrative Nummer 16 im August 2020. Hauke Ritz zu Gast bei Robert Cibis, Filmemacher und Kopf von Ovalmedia. Da saß jemand, der mühelos durch die Geschichte spazierte und es dabei schaffte, geistige und materielle Welt zusammenzubringen. Meine Götter Marx, Bourdieu und Foucault, wenn man so will, angereichert mit mehr als einem Schuss Religionswissen, um die jemand wie ich, als Atheist erzogen und immer noch aufgeregt, wenn er vor einer Kirche steht, eher einen Bogen macht. Dazu all das, was ich in tapsigen Schritten auf dem Gebiet der historischen Forschung zu erkunden versucht hatte – nur in weit längeren Zeiträumen und mit der Vogelperspektive, die jede gute Analyse braucht. Und ich kannte diesen Mann nicht. Ein Armutszeugnis nach mehr als einem Vierteljahrhundert in Bewusstseinsindustrie und Ideologieproduktion.

2. Der Autor

Und damit endlich zu diesem Autor, der meinen Blick auf die Welt verändert hat. Hauke Ritz, Jahrgang 1975, ist ein Kind der alten deutschen Universität. Er hat an der FU Berlin studiert, als man dort noch Professoren treffen konnte, denen Eigenständigkeit wichtiger war als Leistungspunkte, Deadlines und politische Korrektheit. Seine Dissertation wurzelt in diesem ganz anderen akademischen Milieu. Ein dickes Buch, in dem es um Geschichtsphilosophie geht und um die Frage, welchen Reim sich die Deutschen vom Ersten Weltkrieg bis zum Fall der Berliner Mauer auf den Siegeszug von Wissenschaft und Technik gemacht haben. Das klingt sehr akademisch, wird aber schnell politisch, wenn man die Aufsätze liest, die Hauke Ritz ab den späten Nullerjahren auf diesem Fundament aufgebaut hat und die hier nun in einer Art Best-of in die Öffentlichkeit zurückgeholt werden aus dem Halbdunkel von Publikationsorten, deren Reputation inzwischen zum Teil gezielt zerstört worden ist, und die so hoffentlich ein großes und neues Publikum erreichen. In den Texten, die auf dieses Vorwort folgen, geht es um den tiefen Staat und den neuen kalten Krieg, um Geopolitik und Informationskriege und dabei immer wieder auch um die geistige Krise der westlichen Welt sowie um den fehlenden Realitätssinn deutscher Außenpolitik. 

Bevor ich darauf zurückkomme, muss ich die Doppelbiografie abrunden, mit der ich eingestiegen bin. Im Februar 2022, wir erinnern uns auch mit Hilfe des Interviews, das Paul Schreyer mit ihm führte, war Hauke Ritz gerade in Moskau, als Universitätslehrer auf Zeit mit einem DAAD-Stipendium. Im November 2024, als ich diese Zeilen schreibe, ist er wieder einmal in China, mit familiären Verbindungen. Das heißt auch: Hauke Ritz hat mehr gesehen, als einem in den Kongresshotels der US-dominierten Forschergemeinschaften je geboten werden kann. Und er muss weder um Zitationen buhlen noch um irgendwelche Fördertöpfe und damit auch nicht um das Wohlwollen von Kollegen.

Ein Lehrstuhl oder eine Dozentenstelle, hat er mir im Frühsommer 2021 auf Usedom erzählt, wo wir uns das erste Mal gesehen haben, so eine ganz normale akademische Karriere sei für ihn nicht in Frage gekommen. Der Publikationsdruck, die Denkschablonen. Lieber ökonomisch unsicher, aber dafür geistig frei. Ich habe mir diesen Satz gemerkt, weil er einen Beamten wie mich zwingt, seinen Lebensentwurf auf den Prüfstand zu stellen. Bin ich beim Lesen, Forschen, Schreiben so unabhängig, wie ich mir das stets einzureden versuche? Wo sind die Grenzen, die eine Universität und all die Zwänge setzen, die mit dem Kampf um Reputation verbunden sind? Und was ist mit dem Lockmittel Pension, das jeder verspielt, der das Schiff vor der Zeit verlassen will?

Hauke Ritz, das zeigen die zehn Aufsätze, die in diesem Buch versammelt sind, hat alles richtig gemacht. Hier präsentiert sich ein Autor, der „von links“ aufgebrochen ist und sich immer noch so sieht (so beschreibt er das dort, wo es um die aktuelle Theorieschwäche des einst gerade hier so dominanten Lagers geht), aber trotzdem keine Angst hat, für ein Wertesystem zu werben, das eher konservativ wirkt. Herkunft und Familie zum Beispiel. Verankerung und Zugehörigkeit, sowohl geografisch als auch intellektuell. Mehr noch: Wenn ich Hauke Ritz richtig verstanden habe, dann braucht es ein Amalgam aus den Restbeständen der »alten« Linken und dem christlich geprägten Teil des konservativen Lagers, um eine Entwicklung aufzuhalten und vielleicht sogar umzukehren, die in seinen Texten das Etikett »Postmoderne« trägt. Grenzen sprengen, Identitäten schleifen, Traditionen vergessen. Umwertung aller Werte. Transgender und Trans- oder sogar Posthumanismus. Wer all das nicht mag, findet in diesem Buch ein Reiseziel. Gerechtigkeit und Utopie, Wahrheitssuche, der Glaube an die Schöpferkraft des Menschen und die geistige Regulierung politischer Macht – verwurzelt in der Topografie Europas, die Konkurrenz erzwang, und vor allem im Christentum, weitergetragen in weltlichen Religionen wie dem Kommunismus, und so attraktiv, dass Hauke Ritz von Universalismus sprechen kann, von der Fähigkeit dieser Kultur, ein Leitstern für die Welt zu sein.

Ich habe die Texte im Frühling 2022 gelesen, allesamt in einem Rutsch, um mich auf das Gespräch vorzubereiten, das ich mit Hauke Ritz dann im Juni für die Plattform Apolut geführt habe, den Nachfolger von KenFM. Ich weiß, dass das ein Privileg ist. Lesen, worauf man Lust hat, und dafür auch noch bezahlt werden. Ich weiß auch, dass ich ohne die Vorgeschichte, ohne Corona und all das, was mich und dieses Land dorthin geführt hat, niemals das Glück hätte empfinden können, das mit der Entdeckung eines Autors wie Hauke Ritz verbunden ist. Ohne all das wäre ich wahrscheinlich weiter zu irgendwelchen hochwichtigen Tagungen in die USA geflogen und hätte mich mit Aufsätzen für Fachzeitschriften gequält, die für einen winzigen Kreis von Eingeweihten gemacht und selbst von diesem Kreis allenfalls registriert, aber nicht studiert werden.

Lange Gespräche mit Köpfen wie Hauke Ritz hatten bei Ovalmedia oder Apolut in den Coronajahren sechsstellige Zuschauerzahlen. Ein großes Publikum, wenn man die Komplexität und die Originalität mitdenkt, die jeder Leser gleich genießen kann. Man findet diese Videos noch, allerdings nicht beim De-facto-Monopolisten YouTube, der Zensur sei Dank. Im Bermudadreieck zwischen Berlin, Brüssel und dem Silicon Valley verschwindet alles, was die hegemonialen Narrative herausfordert und das Potenzial hat, Menschenmassen erst zu erreichen und dann zu bewegen. Ich habe Hauke Ritz deshalb schon im Studio und am Abend nach unserem Dreh ermutigt und wahrscheinlich sogar ein wenig gedrängt, aus seinen Aufsätzen ein Buch zu machen. Das war auch ein wenig egoistisch gedacht: Ich wollte mein Aha-Erlebnis mit anderen teilen und so Gleichgesinnte heranziehen. Der Mensch ist ein Herdentier und mag es nicht, allein und isoliert zu sein. 

3. Ein neuer Blick auf Macht

Drei Jahre später gibt es nicht nur die Aufsatzsammlung, die Sie gerade in den Händen halten, sondern auch ein Buch, das ich als „großen Wurf“ beschrieben habe – als Werk eines Autors, der die Wirklichkeit nicht ignoriert (Geografie, Reichtum und die Geschichte mit ihren ganz realen Folgen), sich aber trotzdem von der Vorstellung löst, dass der Mensch in all seinem Streben und Irren nicht mehr sei als ein Produkt der Umstände. Hauke Ritz dreht den Spieß um: Die Geschichte bewegt nicht uns, sondern wir bewegen sie. Was passiert, das passiert auch und vielleicht sogar in erster Linie, weil wir ganz bestimmte Vorstellungen von der Vergangenheit und unserem Platz in dieser Welt verinnerlicht haben. Von diesem Axiom ist es nur ein klitzekleiner Schritt zur Machtpolitik: Wenn es stimmt, dass das historische Bewusstsein mindestens genauso wichtig ist wie Atomsprengköpfe, Soldaten oder Gasfelder, dann können sich die Geheimdienste nicht auf Überwachung und Kontrolle beschränken. Dann müssen sie in die Ideenproduktion eingreifen. Und wir? Wir müssen die Geistesgeschichte neu schreiben, Politik anders sehen und zuallererst begreifen, dass der Mensch das Sein verändern kann, wenn er denn versteht, wer und was seinen Blick bisher gelenkt hat. Ich bin deshalb besonders froh, dass es auch das Herz der Serie „Die Logik des neuen kalten Krieges“ in dieses Buch geschafft hat, ursprünglich 2016 bei RT-Deutsch erschienen. Diese Stücke sind exemplarisch für das Denken von Hauke Ritz. Der Neoliberalismus, um das nur an einem Beispiel zu illustrieren, wird dort von ihm nicht ökonomisch interpretiert, „sondern als ein Kulturmodell“, das zu verstehen hilft, wie es zu der Ehe von Kapitalismus und „neuer Linker“ kommen konnte und damit sowohl zu jener „aggressiven Dominanz des Westens“, die auch den Westend-Verlag umtreibt und so diese Publikation ermöglicht, als auch zur „Vernachlässigung der sozialen Frage“. 

Hauke Ritz holt die geistige Dimension von Herrschen und Beherrschtwerden ins Scheinwerferlicht und fragt nach der „Macht des Konzepts“. Diese Macht, sagt Hauke Ritz nicht nur in seinem Aufsatz über die „kulturelle Dimension des Kalten Krieges“, hat 1989/90 den Zweikampf der Systeme entschieden. Nicht die Ökonomie, nicht das Wohlstandsgefälle, nicht das Wettrüsten. Ein Riesenreich wie die Sowjetunion, kaum verschuldet, autark durch Rohstoffe und in der Lage, jeden Feind abzuschrecken, habe weder seine Satellitenstaaten aufgeben müssen noch sich selbst – wenn da nicht der Sog gewesen wäre, der von der Rockmusik ausging, von Jeans und Hollywood, von bunten Schaufenstern und von einem Märchen, das das andere Lager als Hort von Mitbestimmung, Pressefreiheit und ganz privatem Glück gepriesen hat. Als selbst der erste Mann im Kreml all das für bare Münze nahm und Glasnost ausrief (das, was der Westen für seinen Journalismus bis heute behauptet, aber schon damals nicht einlösen konnte und wollte), sei es um den Gegenentwurf geschehen gewesen. Die Berliner Mauer habe der Psychologie nicht standhalten können.

Fast noch wichtiger: All das war kein Zufall, sondern Resultat strategischer und vor allem geheimdienstlicher Arbeit. Hauke Ritz kann sich hier unter anderem auf Francis Stonor Saunders und Michael Hochgeschwender stützen und so herausarbeiten, wie die CIA über den Kongress für kulturelle Freiheit in den 1950ern und 1960ern Schriftsteller und Journalisten finanzierte, Musiker und Maler, Zeitschriften, Galerien, Filme – und damit Personal, Denkmuster, Symbole. Die „neue“ Linke, „nicht-kommunistisch“, also nicht mehr an der System- und Eigentumsfrage interessiert, diese „neue“ Linke ist, das lernen wir bei Hauke Ritz, genauso ein Produkt von Ideenmanagement wie das positive US-Bild vieler Westeuropäer oder eine neue französische Philosophie um Michel Foucault, Claude Lévi-Strauss oder Bernard-Henri Lévy, die Marx und Hegel abwählte, stattdessen auf Nietzsche setzte und so ein Fundament schuf für das „Projekt einer Umwertung aller Werte“.

Natürlich kann man fragen: Was hat all das mit uns zu tun? Mit dem Krieg in der Ukraine, mit der Zukunft Europas oder gar mit der These auf dem Buchcover, dass nichts weniger als der „Weltfrieden“ ausgerechnet von uns, von Deutschland abhängt? Warum sollen wir uns mit Kämpfen in irgendwelchen Studierstübchen beschäftigen, die höchstens zwei Handvoll Gelehrte verstehen? Hauke Ritz sagt: Wer die Welt beherrschen will, muss den Code der europäischen Kultur umschreiben. Wie weit dieses „Projekt“ schon gediehen ist, sieht jeder, der die Augen öffnet. In der Lesart von Hauke Ritz ist Europa Opfer einer „postmodernen Fehlinterpretation seiner eigenen Kultur“, importiert aus den USA und nur abzuwehren mit Hilfe von Russland, das zwar zu Europa gehöre, sich vom Westen des Kontinents aber unterscheide und deshalb einen Gegenentwurf liefern könne. Stichworte sind hier Orthodoxie und Sozialismus sowie eine Vergangenheit als Imperium, ohne die, so sieht das Hauke Ritz, neben diplomatischen Erfahrungen die „politischen Energien“ fehlen, die nötig sind, um Souveränität auch da zu bewahren, wo die „Macht des Konzepts“ beginnt. China und der Iran ja, Indien und Lateinamerika nein.

Keine Angst, ich schreibe hier kein zweites Buch. Diese Appetithäppchen sollen Lust machen auf einen Autor, der die Hektik der Gegenwart hinter sich lässt und aus den Tiefen der Geschichte eine Interpretation anbietet, die die hegemoniale Ideologie in ein ganz neues Licht rückt und sie so als „Rechtfertigungslehre“ enttarnt (Werner Hofmann) oder als „Machtinterpretation der Wirklichkeit“ (Václav Havel), die sich zwangsläufig „ritualisiert“ und „von der Wirklichkeit emanzipiert“, um als „Alibi“ für alle funktionieren zu können, die mit der Macht marschieren. Ich weiß nicht mehr, wie ich das Marx-Zitat mit dem komischen Wort „kömmt“ als kleiner Junge gedeutet habe. Ich wusste wenig von Philosophie und gar nichts von der Welt. Hauke Ritz blickt nicht nur in Abgründe, die ich vorher allenfalls aus dem Augenwinkel gesehen hatte, sondern bietet zugleich eine Lösung an. Als Gleichung und in seinen Worten formuliert: „klassische Arbeiterbewegung“ plus „christlich orientierte Wertkonservative“ ist gleich Hoffnung und Neustart. Und nun Vorhang auf für einen Philosophen, der nicht nur Deutschland einen Weg weist in Richtung Veränderung und Frieden.

We’ve all been there, you’re locked in, desperately fighting with spreadsheets, the dishwasher’s going, and a banana cake is in the oven. Suddenly, all goes quiet, lights are off, oven’s off, PC dead as a doorknob. You check the fusebox, it’s fine. Must be a blackout. Usually, the power comes back on after 30 minutes to an hour, but you’re left standing there wondering what happened. 

We’ve just seen a country-wide scale event like this, which was much more extreme. On 28th April, the Iberian Peninsula experienced a catastrophic breakdown of the grid (see here).

Power was off for several days. I won’t dig into the details of this particular event; doing so is way beyond my pay grade. Suffice it to say it follows the ideas I want to introduce in this article.

We’ll begin with the simplest model I can think of, getting to grips with the issue from first principles. Then I’ll walk through how the basic premise scales up the Australian grid (or at least the east coast, the NEM), before introducing the shadowy supergeniuses in control of it all (AEMO) and one of the most important market mechanisms they use - Frequency Control Ancillary Services (FCAS). 

Part one: First principles

Imagine a way-over-simplified system with a single source of power and a single load. Our source of power is just a battery that produces 10MW of power at an assumed 1000V. The battery has no rotating components. It is connected to a very basic inverter. The inverter is designed to produce 50 Hz AC power; however, let's imagine it has no sophisticated voltage controls or protections (unlike real inverters). All that our inverter comprises is a basic switching and timing circuit.

This specific frequency of 50 Hz is a fundamental design standard for almost all AC electrical equipment. Just like a clock needs to tick at a precise rate to tell accurate time, electrical devices like motors rely on the AC power cycling exactly 50 times per second. If the frequency deviates too much, it can cause motors to speed up or slow down incorrectly, or sensitive electronics to malfunction. Our simple inverter, despite its limitations, is designed to produce 50 Hz because that's what the heater and any other AC device expect.

Our load is a large but mechanically simple industrial heater. It has a large coil that produces heat by running a current through it. Importantly, the heater has a dial to adjust temperature (which can change its power consumption). The heater is currently set to draw 10MW of power.

That’s the start, with a simplified system in equilibrium, all is well. The heater is producing heat, and you can make up your own story about what the heat is used for. The important point is that the voltage, current, and frequency are all stable.

Next, the foreman operating the heater turns the dial up to increase the heat output. Assume the heater now wants to draw 20MW of power. We’re simplifying, so also assume that in this instant, the voltage remains at 1000V.

To draw this much power, the heater now has to draw more current (because power = voltage x current, it’s the rules). Since we assumed the voltage remains at 1000V, there is an instantaneous demand for more power from the battery than it was previously supplying.

The battery now attempts to supply this current, which means the current must flow through the battery’s components, the inverter’s components, and the wire connecting the battery to the heater. All of these physical components have resistance. This means the actual voltage the heater receives will be lower than 1000V.

Now that the heater is receiving voltage lower than 1000V, things start to go wrong. The power consumed by the heater is proportional to the square of the voltage across it (rules are rules), so power = voltage^2 / resistance. Following this rule, since the voltage has decreased, then that means the actual power the heater draws will be less than the 20MW desired. For example, it might only draw 15MW, but it depends on the resistances in all the components, which we haven’t set.

Things just get uglier. The battery and inverter are operating under extreme stress, trying to deliver the higher current demanded, but at reduced voltage. Inside the inverter and the battery, the components start getting hot (rules, again). Since we assumed the battery and inverter are super simple, the inverter can't adjust its power output based on actual grid conditions (like a sophisticated one would); it can only fail. Then the heater goes out, and the foreman gets mad; it’s just a bad day all around. 

The fix: add a spinny thing.

Reimagine the situation just as before, but now, instead of a battery, imagine the source of power is a contemporary synchronous generator system. Say it’s a hydro plant, where the spinning turbine is directly connected to the grid. This generator, unlike the battery-inverter, inherently uses its large rotating mass to move a metal rod up and down inside a magnetic coil and produces AC power. Importantly, it synchronises with our system’s required 50 Hz rhythm.

In this case, the story proceeds as before. When the foreman turns the heater dial up the heater wants to draw 20MW. In this case, the increased current flows through the impedance of the generator’s internal components and the wire. Just as before, this causes an immediate, rapid voltage drop at the heater’s terminals. In that instant, the heater will not get its desired 20MW because the voltage is too low.

Since the generator’s power output is less than the load demand, the lack of energy causes the rotating mass of the generator to decelerate (energy is conserved), and the frequency of the AC power in the system drops below 50 HZ. Because the generator’s turbine is a large mass, it has substantial inertia (pesky rules again), so the drop in frequency happens much more slowly than in our first story, and there is no catastrophic failure of the system. Instea,d this inertia buys time for the system to react.

The reaction comes from the manager of the generator. In the real world, this is a piece of software called a governor, but it’s useful to imagine it’s a person. The manager sees the drop in frequency and presses some buttons to let more water flow to the turbine, the frequency climbs back to 50 HZ and the power output of the generator increases.

Then the heater gets its required 20MW of power at 1000V and 50Hz, and the foreman is happy, everyone’s happy, it’s just a good time.

Frequency, in this simple system, indicates power imbalances and triggers the manager of the generator to respond. Equally, we could have assumed the foreman can be notified that he shouldn’t increase the heater’s dial - we can manage the imbalance either on the supply (generator) or demand (heater) side, or a mix of both. 

This hints at a crucial question: how the hell do we coordinate this? Even with just a single load and a single generator, what sort of contracts would the foreman and generator manager need to keep everything running?

Part deux: AEMO, the not-so-invisible hand coordinating the market

Above is a story of a system with one load and one generator, without protections for the management of voltage or frequency. I walked through how this simple system could suffer a catastrophic breakdown as a result of the load increasing. Followed by a slight added complexity, which solves the issue. 

Everything that applies in the simplified model also applies in the real world; the basic principles scale up and create complex incentives, coordination, and knowledge problems. 

In my simple story, there was a manager in charge of the generator and a foreman in charge of the heater. In the much more complex National Electricity Market (NEM), there’s a third main actor: Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO, because it operates the energy market, perfect naming convention). Among a host of competing priorities, AEMO has one role we’re particularly interested in: making sure we have a good time, i.e making sure the grid is stable. How it does so is the economics bit.

The NEM covers a huge geographic area (all the way up the East Coast from South Australia up to North Port Douglas). Within the vast area it covers are around 10 million customer connections (source). AEMO provides an interactive map that shows you how many substations there are - lots! 

here's a map from AEMO

With all those connections and interconnections, the only constant is change. Strong winds can suddenly break connections, generators can trip for a host of reasons, and sometimes physics just says “no”.

On the flip side, sometimes large loads connect unpredictably and want instant power to be available. The physics says supply must equal demand or things get bad, so how does AEMO make sure supply equals demand?

In short, dispatch instructions. AEMO coordinates the supply-side market participants using signals to their control rooms. The economics of it could be summed up as: AEMO is a visible hand trying to approximate the role of Smith’s invisible hand in the market*.

Though not the focus of my current article, dispatch can be (over)simplified as follows: Every five minutes, generators send an offer to AEMO containing a price-quantity pair for power output. AEMO sorts the offer from lowest price to highest and matches supply to forecasted demand, starting from the lowest offer to create a dispatch interval/dispatch window, within system constraints. Importantly, generators all receive the highest marginal price (spot price) of all offers within the dispatch interval. Then, all generators included in the dispatch interval receive revenue equal to their power dispatched times the spot price.

So, assuming the system is in balance. This plays out, and everyone’s happy. But that’s not guaranteed in such a complex interconnected system like the NEM. So, what happens if, after offers are placed and power is scheduled, a generator suddenly trips off (cutting supply) or a large load connects unexpectedly (rapidly ramping up demand)?

AEMO needs some sort of backup power supply or backup demand as a contingency for when imbalances happen. One of such contingencies is what we call this service provision Frequency Control Ancillary Services (FCAS). So named because AEMO uses system frequency to understand where, when, and how much extra supply or demand (load) is required to return the system to the normal stable operation. 

But AEMO doesn’t own any generators, batteries, or large loads itself. So, how does it get them? Someone came up with the idea that you can sell backup supply or demand (load) to AEMO, for a fee. This idea implies that AEMO has to find the right incentives to bring backup supply or backup demand (load) online in a flash.

There’s a market for that! 

Actually, there are eight markets, but we’re simplifying.

To procure FCAS, AEMO runs a similar auction process to the market for power. Participants submit bids to AEMO every five minutes, containing a service type and availability across up to 10 price bands. The service type is one of: increase/decrease frequency in one of the three time intervals.

AEMO then considers all bids and finds the least-cost solution that meets all system requirements, matching the supply of FCAS to the demand for FCAS. Just like in the market for power, AEMO orders the FCAS bids into a “merit order” based on price for each service type (lowest price to highest price). It then decides which bids it will accept and pays all accepted bids the highest marginal price of all accepted bids. This creates a price signal for FCAS in the market.

The design has obvious intentions: FCAS suppliers win big if they can be super low cost while their competitors are high cost. 

Just like in the market for power, once bids are accepted, AEMO sends a signal to the control panels of the FCAS participants. 

You can see how , by following this process, AEMO acts to approximate the emergent order (or invisible hand) of a market by creating price signals for both power supply as well as FCAS. Then, physically matching those price signals with the actual power flows using a (pretty amazing, honestly) control scheme. 

The idea that AEMO is only approximating the invisible hand is important; I’ll explore that more deeply in future articles.

That’s the physics and market mechanisms in a nutshell. But who sells FCAS to AEMO, and what about the mullah, dollars, buckerinos, fat stacks?

Part tres: How big is the market

Firstly, who can participate in the FCAS market? As far as I understand, it’s quite open; if you invent a device that meets the standards and go through the application process, then you can participate. AEMO’s concern is system stability, so from their POV, any particular device is fair game as long as you meet the engineering standards. 

One common example is certain electricity retailers who use their customers’ hot water cylinders as a demand response. By sending an electrical signal to your hot water cylinder, the company can turn it off for a short period, reducing demand (load). There’s a complex “annoyance cost” paid by the consumer of their hot water cylinder being turned off, but then that’s balanced against potentially lower bills as the electricity retailer can substitute FCAS revenue. 

Another example is grid-scale batteries; these can build or release charge on a whim. For batteries, the incentives are about whether their charge is worth more in the spot market or in the supply response FCAS market. If the battery is connected to a facility like a solar plant, then the incentives get more complex; is it worth selling power instantly or building charge in the battery for potential spot market or FCAS later? Add in a futures market and you just get more complexity.

A final, still emerging, example is bitcoin miners, these are basically just computers. These machines can be powered up or down relatively quickly and easily with little ill physical effects, and no ill effects to the Bitcoin network or protocol. When they are powered up, they earn a stream of income for the owners in the form of bitcoin.

This creates an interesting dynamic when bitcoin miners participate in the FCAS market; their FCAS bid, all else equal, should be at least the value of the opportunity cost of not mining bitcoin.

A completely unanswered question is what happens if bitcoin mining becomes a large proportion of FCAS? Consider a case where the FCAS from bitcoin miners drops out of the market because bitcoin fees spike and miners find it more profitable to mine rather than provide FCAS.

Alright, but the money! Surely FCAS is lucrative?

AEMO publishes data on FCAS. The most readily understandable data is the payment data. This is, as the name suggests, how much AEMO paid to FCAS participants over the eight service types (and in each State/Territory in the NEM) each month. This is the raw revenue of FCAS market participants. One way to think of it is as the cost of stability. 

In total, FCAS payments have been about $39 million this year (up to week 20, which ended May 18). 

AEMO has also provided total revenue for FCAS from batteries in the NEM, specifically in its Quarterly Energy Dynamics - Q1 2025, covering 1 January to 31 March 2025 report. This data suggests that batteries in the NEM have earned $69 million in 2024, which is 42.9 percent of all FCAS costs. This is remarkable to me, because grid-scale batteries are relatively new to the market as compared to other generation and storage technologies. 

The cause lies in the fact that batteries can* *have a low marginal cost to charge and discharge, so the fact that they captured such market share this fast highlights the idea that he who produces FCAS cheapest wins.

This data release also contains aggregate FCAS costs for all states. The data tells us that in 2024, total FCAS costs were $161 million.

The fact that there is such a healthy pot up for grabs speaks to the fragility of our grid, but also to the resilience; it's a strange duality.

With continued investment in solar generation, because such systems have little to no inertia, we could see increased frequency excursions (technical term for being out of range). Engineers are busy solving this using inverters, which simulate inertia. These are genius, but such innovations take time (and standards) to be adopted.

Then there’s the question of critical infrastructure risk - how tolerant can we be of instability when datacenters mining Bitcoin and running AI models are on the line

At the risk of repeating myself, the whole construction is very much a visible hand trying to approximate what Adam Smith’s invisible hand might do. 

Fin

Full disclosure, I do use AI (Gemini specifically) to help me research, learn, and write my articles, but I go over everything multiple times to make it my own voice and reflect my own ideas.

*Adam Smith described the idea of an invisible hand, which directs the market, coordinating people's desires, as a metaphor to explain how people in a market somehow end up serving each other's best interests even without directly communicating.
