Same here. A shift from hard war to soft war where people aren’t killed would be a huge step forward for our humanity.
It would be that after years of loyal service and an AI job replacement program, wouldn’t it? It’s at least what I think now when my ego gets ahead of me is there’s always someone else who will do this job after me if I quit or get fired.
Glad you liked Murphy’s role, thought it made an important point about friendship beyond the complexities of human realities with money.
Thanks for your comment!
That's a fair point, but guess doesn't make for an optimistic story about our future with Bitcoin. There's a lot of motivation for soverignity as it's under attack from my perspective and hopefully with access to AI and other tools that will only increase, even if people are living humble lives stacking sats.
Drank a fifth? Not sure I fully comprehend your feedback either but I appreciate I can’t get into all the ideas of Softwar and what it may look like in the future. If you’ve read Jason’s thesis, as I have it’s 400 pages of very dense physics, energy and military strategy (read here if you wish: https://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/153030/lowery-jplowery-sm-sdm-2023-thesis.pdf?sequence=1).
Would be interested to hear what details you think would be missing to make it more plausible.
Really appreciate your feedback. My aim with the Greater than Fiction is to take abstract ideas from Bitcoiners and turn them into stories that bring them to life. Glad this resonates so deeply with you.
Really glad it hit home and broadened your view of how Bitcoin could be used as a means to defend people in the future. I thought it was an important use case of Bitcoin and its ability to shift from kinetic warfare to cyber.
If you haven’t read or heard Jason Lowery’s Softwar idea that inspired this story, I highly recommend checking it out. This is his TED Talk worth watching: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=spDS7q6uRkY
This week’s story was inspired by Abubakar Nur Khalil:
“Bitcoin mining in Africa isn’t just about profit. It’s about sovereignty and survival.”
Have an idea for a future Bitcoin story we should imagine? Comment below and zap to keep them coming ⚡️⚡️
AI art is design is used by artists to expand their art and is part of the future art form that suits the theme of my stories.
I disagree that you shouldn’t have a plan for writing for a specific audience. Also I’m not sure who is on SN who isn’t a bitcoiner and certainly these fictional stories shouldn’t be a source of truth for them to understand key concepts that’s what white papers, non-fiction Bitcoin books, etc are for.
Thanks for your feedback but I respectfully disagree with a couple of your points like the communist commune. Why would that be the default without more detail? The audience is for Bitcoiners so not all concepts are explained for beginners but agree it would have to be of expanded further out. Restricted word count certainly makes that a more difficult challenge but will try to add more details for the next story.
I also like the AI generated images and not much of an artist so will save omitting it or putting another stock image everyone’s seen before.
Thanks so much for your comment and sharing what resonated most with you.
There are so many elements that have threads form our current times-currency devaluation, government corruption, family sovereignty and climate change. It can be hard to imagine but important to envision the possibility to help navigate the here and now.
Are there any ideas or Ethiopian influencers you’d want featured in future stories?
