Keep your eyes out for my trip report of the Great Mid-Atlantic bitcoin meetup at Pubkey DC on Feb 18! A bit of procrastination and a lot of notes has kept me from posting yet, but it's coming soon. Consider this an accountability post for myself.

Looking forward to it!

SN is an idea. It tests a theory of nature. Can money moderate and scale a commons that's worth inhabiting, with minimal permission, without reference to external identity and philanthropy? Bitcoin is portable, but can we prove its properties are?

Well... at some point we are going to have to establish a new type of academia. There has to be a way to do education that's antithetical to the fiat paradigm and I feel like there's a bunch of us bitcoiners & truth seekers out there that have gone deep enough with certain subjects who could really bring something useful to the table in that regard.

Homeschooling is a viable alternative & properly decentralized at that, sure, but it's also an inefficient way to go about (huge burden on the parents) + I feel like the missing aspect of socialization could potentially be its Achilles' heel.

Now the simple questions like... How? Where? And When? are unfortunately completely unclear to me at this present moment 😅

have u read CyberShamans? those are the prerequites: clear mind, clean body, a ton of knowledge, and for the cherry on top - one gotta be able to educate in silence; it is possible - for example thru vlogs demonstrating feats of endurance or strength, or creative art... building monuments; no words necessaru there; i am working on a stealthy forest sanctuary in plain sight with a garden and a watchtower;

regarding homeschooling: those kids (not children or parents - those are legal fiat labels) will be socially capable and will awaken other kids to their true potential by setting an example, a record, that something is possible, makes sense, and is very simple... such as having a lightning wallet, being a strong climber, running a nostr store, saving other kids from abuse...

US debt as a fraction of GDP is also at 122%.

So this is like a guy who makes $100k a year owing $122k in debt, and increasing that debt by $8k per year.

Fun times ahead.

Kyrios or kurios (κύριος) is a Greek word that is usually translated as "lord" or "master." It appears roughly 7,000 times in the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible.

However, the English word curious is not derived from the Greek word Kurios. The similarity between "curious" and "kurios" is phonetic only - a coincidental resemblance in sound, without any shared linguistic ancestry.

Nevertheless, I find this to be a very curious coincidence (pun intended). For it is through curiosity first and foremost that we can find our calling and align with our soul purpose. Kurios is what calls; curiosity is what orients. The direction of our attention often governs our destiny.

Latin curiosus "careful, diligent; inquiring eagerly, meddlesome," akin to cura "care;"

there are no coincidences - architects of sacred language knew what they are doing, to help our species remember how to escape mond control;

cartel (n.)

1550s, "a written challenge, letter of defiance," from French cartel (16c.), from Italian cartello "placard," diminutive of carta "card" (see card (n.1)).

It came to mean "written agreement between states at war" (1690s), for the exchange of prisoners or some other mutual advantage, then "a written agreement between challengers" of any sort (1889). The sense of "a commercial trust, an association of industrialists" is from 1900, via German Kartell, which is from French. The older U.S. term for that is trust (n.). The usual German name for them was Interessengemeinschaft, abbreviated IG.
