Wow, that’s quite a journey. Crazy how many of us learned the hard way in the early days. Glad to hear it eventually became something meaningful for you—especially after your second child. Bitcoin really does hit different when life gets real.
That is for big digital Bitcoin is purpose
If this is about bitcoin, then here are some alternatives depending on what you want.
Litecoin (LTC) – Faster block time and lower fees than Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) – Focuses on peer-to-peer payments with larger block sizes.

Ethereum (ETH) – Most popular for decentralized apps, smart contracts, DeFi, NFTs.
Solana (SOL) – Ultra-fast and low-cost transactions, popular for NFTs and DeFi.
Cardano (ADA) – Peer-reviewed academic approach, eco-friendly, smart contract capable.
Monero (XMR) – Top-tier privacy, hard to trace transactions.
Zcash (ZEC) – Optional shielded transactions with advanced cryptography.
Polkadot (DOT) – Cross-chain interoperability and staking rewards.
Tezos (XTZ) – Self-upgradable chain with strong staking support.

When Choosing the Right Alternative, consider the following:
Use Case: Payments? Investment? Smart contracts?

alternative forum - sn
alternative territory - alter_native

Alternative transport: no helmet, no insurance, no recent paperwork & no real worries on 2 wheels in this big Asian city! ;-)
Alternative problem solution for the above worst case: gold around my neck!
I would love to see you write a whole post about this and explain why you choose this way. And see what others have to say. It's an interesting perspective and way of being.
That has been planned for quite a while, so definitely will post here!
Looking forward to it. 🙌
I love it. I do the same thing as far as paperwork and insurance. It's all a scam to me. I'm my opinion, when we purchase insurance, we are sun consciously setting and intention to need it and have an accident. Practice presence and mindfulness and then it's not needed. People don't want to take responsibility for their actions. Thanks for the share. 🙌
This particular thing was not a linear, clear and single decision. 2020 had a lot to do with it, and also there might be a time where I go back to something more semi-legal. That depends on other risk factors, like family here & visa...
One of the main factors is that in a traditional, sane culture you'll have to compensate for any damages anyway, insurance and legalities are secondary to that.
this often happens even if you're not at fault, and trying to push people around on this will definitely result in big trouble every single time!
In other words everything & anything has to be handled as you go along, and its all about staying out of any trouble in the first place.
Which might include not helping others too, that knowledge once held me out of trouble when some 12-13 year wannabe gangster pulled a 1911 Colt on the highway haha!
So yeah, I've driven off literally listening for bullets whizzing by...
I also had a huge shift this way in 2020, the year of clear vision. This was the year I sold my house in the city and moved to the desert to be more isolated. and I have only removed myself more since. I think this was a big year for many people. That's hardcore, having bullets whizzing by. I've never experienced anything like that. I do think I have experienced a couple ego deaths through psychedelics though. And those helped me see that death is not something to fear. We go on after this experience. So now I live fearless for the most part.
Bitcoin , history , art , news , any beautiful thing
Thank you for providing that; it was the thing missing from SN.
How did you edit the posting fee?
I have had issues finding this page in the past as well. When you are in your territories main page. Click the small down arrow to the right of your territory name. The lower one. Not the one at the top of the page. And then there should be an edit button. Scroll down and it's at the bottom of that page.
Thanks
I found the elusive edit button
Alternative News sources: I stopped listening to mainstream media after Trump won in 2016. I had to do something similar during COVID. I don’t understand people who rely on MSNBC for news.
alternative exercise: climbing trees and rocks
This might be the very best exercise. I would love to see a full length right up about why this is a great way to stay fit.

Alternative music, I seem not to listen to main stream music anymore.
The new stuff is just too loud, too busy.
alternative food - Switching to a vegan diet was a game-changer for me! I realised that animal-based products were wreaking havoc on my body, so I made the switch to plant-based foods. And guess what? It worked wonders! All my aches, pains, and inflammation? G-O-N-E.
Hey, I havent seen you in a while!
How have you been?
I still peak in here once in a while. I have been really well. We have been really busy with a big move. I am building in our new off the grid property getting it all ready for whatever comes.
I feel this an important topic. In this space most people believe in the carnivore diet. So this would be a perfect alternative topic to discuss here. For myself, food has been a journey. I think our beliefs about our food are very important. I eat just about anything but I do aim to more plant based. I have tried it all in the past. I leaned a lot through fasting. I'm my experience, dependingg where people are on their journey, different food serves them for a period. I do think plant based is where people end up eventually.
I would love to hear more about this in longer form as a new post.
how did I miss this comment?!? I will put it in my diary to write about it in the next few days :)
Alternative medicine - avoid taking antibiotics, cold medicines, sleeping pills etc. and look if there are common herbs that help with the issue. There’s often an option with milder side effects that is just as effective
alternative religion – see "alternative fuel" :)
👌
Alternative media is for sure 'traditional Hindu Barat (wedding) Party'
Search for it and you will get the answer why it's alt media.

The earth is flat. Will not explain or debate.
I like this take. Seems more likely to me than the spinning ball. It would be cool if people could have discussions about this without getting heated and emotional. I think people get too attached to their beliefs. But I'm with you on this one.
The Bugle is the pinnacle of news. Though I've been enjoying Derrick Broze's work at the Conscious Resistance.
I fear the bugle maybe spreading mis-information though or alternative truths if you will. How would you respond to the allegation?
Sounds like a failure to trust the experts on your part. The Bugle is ran by the experts. We are real journalists
alternative religion – scientology
Dianetics!
Almost autocorrect to diabetes
Statism is the best religion by far. Way better than scientology
I'm new to statism. What's that all about. Does it have to do with the states?
https://i0.wp.com/mediachomp.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/state-gods-43.jpg https://mediachomp.com/asking-ai-to-create-a-god-for-every-state/
I saw that guy at the Phoenix costco. I am sure of it. Is he the Arizona statist god?
I think Arizona might have their own similar one, but you would probably fiend the god of Texas at the Alamo.
Ok Corral
I live close to tombstone actually. Are you familiar?
Cool
I have not visited the site of the shootout
General curiosity about that period
I got interested after watching Deadwood
I don't know much of anything about scientology. Do you practice scientology?
No, but that's a good alternative. Or Buddhism, but it's not really a religion.
Buddhism isn't or scientology?
I don't get it
Which one is not a religion?
Ah, ok. Buddhism isn't
That's interesting. What makes a religion a religion? I thought it was.
