He’s going to die alone without a person in the world who cares. He’ll then spend eternity chasing the same gods he did in this life.
This is how civilization dies, 100% hedonism, no family, no roots, no legacy

We may have spent a decade teaching Bitcoiners the wrong backup model. Why are we engraving the root secret to our entire wallet onto steel? Today I tested the Bitcoin Core alternative with my client. No seed words or hardware wallet. It just worked. ↓

BIP39 Is Not a Wallet

Why I’m Moving Back to Bitcoin Core — and Why More Bitcoiners Should Question the Hardware-Wallet Path For years, the Bitcoin industry has repeated one of the most dangerous lines in self-custody: “As

A small, albeit vocal, number of misguided Catholics are tempted by the social and political philosophy known as Libertarianism, i.e. Classical Liberalism. Its more radical expression is anarcho-capitalism as found in “Austrian School of Economics”. Without going into a full critique of the subversive and individualistic principles of the system, in either its radical or moderate forms, here are a few quotes from one of its 20th century pioneers, the Jew Ludwig von Mises. Von Mises personally mentored Friedrich Hayek (Agnostic), Murray Rothbard (Jew) and Israel Kirzner (Jew). All three went on to champion laissez-faire economics in opposition to Catholic Social Teaching (CST). The modern Republican Party is heavily influenced by these thinkers, whether they know it or not. You will notice how Von Mises, like other Libertarians, identifies CST as “Socialism” and considers Catholicism opposed to the Liberal conception of “Liberty”. While the latter charge is true, the Catholic Church has always upheld true Liberty and as Pope Leo XIII said, it is “the highest of [man’s] natural endowments”. Here are the relevant quotes from Von Mises: “The Christian churches and sects did not fight socialism. Step by step they accepted its essential political and social ideas. Today they are, with but few exceptions, outspoken in rejecting capitalism and advocating either socialism or interventionist policies which must inevitably result in the establishment of socialism.” — Ludwig von Mises, Theory and History, p. 150 “But later events have proved that Protestantism is no more a safeguard of freedom than Catholicism. The ideal of liberalism is the complete separation of church and state, and tolerance—without any regard to differences among the churches.” — Ludwig von Mises, Omnipotent Government, p. 30 “In the above text we have always spoken only of the Church in general, without considering the differences between the various denominations. This is quite admissible. The evolution towards Socialism is common to all denominations. In Catholicism, Leo XIII's encyclical, Rerum Novarum, of 1891, has recognized the origin of private property in Natural Law, but simultaneously the Church laid down a series of fundamental ethical principles for the distribution of incomes, which could be put into practice only under State Socialism. On this basis stands also Pius XI's encyclical, Quadragesimo Anno, of 1931. In German Protestantism the Christian Socialist idea is so tied up with State Socialism that the two can hardly be distinguished.” — Ludwig von Mises, Socialism, p. 255 “If the Roman Church is to find any way out of the crisis into which nationalism has brought it, then it must be thoroughly transformed. It may be that this transformation and reformation will lead to its unconditional acceptance of the indispensability of private ownership in the means of production. At present it is still far from this, as witness the recent encyclical Quadragesimo Anno.” — Ludwig von Mises, Socialism, p. 428

Many Catholics are not familiar with Fr. Maximilian Kolbe’s writings on Judaism. However, Fr. James Mawdsley and others have drawn attention to what he had to say on the subject. Learn more: integritymagazine.org/2026/0…

Bitcoin is rotten to the core, and it saddens me that we’ve allowed it to get this far.

SegWit activation should not be celebrated. It marked the beginning of the rot in the Bitcoin protocol. Than came Taproot. Now core is pushing further changes, and the rot continues to spread. The real question is no longer what comes next? but is it already too late turn back?

Beauty did not just disappear by itself. Think about what else disappeared alongside it: religion, morality and shared values, family, and many other culture-building forces. Beauty is an outward sign of a society’s health and values.

IMO BIP-110 is (so far) the most important event in Bitcoin of the 2020s, even more than Taproot activation. Every bitcoiner can see that mining has been almost from the start too centralized for the canonical game-theory to hold in practice. However mining pools had always kept appearances and caved in to the will of noderunners. BIP-110 mandatory signalling day was the first time in Bitcoin history that the dominant Sv1 pools abused their position and kick a good chunk of Bitcoin users out of the network that were trying to fix long-standing bugs in the protocol, instead of fixing said bugs and keeping everyone in the same chain. What follows from this, and what I would have learned if I was in their position or a state actor, is that this group can also impose top-down soft-forks to the network of nodes and kick out those who try to explicitly reject the new rules. Personally this episode has helped me understand the phenomenon of Bitcoin developers and even maintainers that work in the field but have zero skin in the game. And unfortunately none of the bitcoiners who really opposed BIP-110 understood that by counting on pools to ignore an UASF instead of running an URSF themselves they gave away their agency to pool operators to govern the protocol. Now that the precedent is set I fully expect down the line that the dominant pools will abuse this power again to force miner-activated soft-forks on user nodes, which have no realistic way to be stopped since UASFs and URSFs have been shown to not be effective in this centralized mining environment.
Replying to @disnocen
BIP110 was in itself a non-event, indeed, but it was connected with many important but suntle things about Bitcoin that people struggle to learn and understand: - validity rules vs standardness policies, - rule restriction vs rule relaxation, - active change vs passive status quo, - hashers/pools vs merchant/hodlers, - users vs developers, - rough consensus vs mass hysteria. It has been a great educational opportunity, for people humble enough to take it.
