Yeah, to have that amount of time away from a sport, particularly boxing, and to be able to make the levels he did when he returned is underappreciated. Then throw in the weight loss and the psychological barrier.

#boxstr
follows is one of the most iconic moments in modern boxing history. A true case of life imitating art.
Tyson Fury had been out of the ring for 2 and a half years following his victory over Wladimir Klitschko, a fight in which he became unified heavyweight champion against the odds. He battled alcoholism and depression and ballooned to 400lbs, before shedding 150lbs after reigniting his career with new trainer Ben Davison.
After two warm up fights, he went straight in against the most feared puncher in the division, WBC champ, Deontay Wilder. The Bronze Bomber had won all 40 fights, 39 by knockout. In fact, the only bout he went to points in was against Bermane Stiverne, who he later recorded a 1st round knockout of.
Many thought that it was a mismatch, and some even believed that it wouldn't go ahead. Fury boxed on the back foot, and, despite hitting the canvas in the 9th, onlookers believed he was on course to record a points win. Until the 12th round, when Wilder uncorked a typically devastating right hand.
There are two videos below, the first being the round in its entirety, and the second, a short which shows Wilder's Apollo Creed style reaction at what unfolded. The fight set the stage for arguably the greatest modern day heavyweight trilogy, one to rival any in history.

My contribution to #boxstr...
This was the fight that got me into boxing properly. Going into this, Carl Froch was a British Super-middleweight who had just won the WBC title in a thrilling contest with the tough and durable Jean Pascal.
This, his first defense, was seen as a step too far for Froch, who was widely expected to come unstuck against the superior boxer in Jermain Taylor.
Taylor was a former undisputed titlist at Middleweight and had beaten both Bernard Hopkins and, more recently, Jeff Lacy.
Taylor started well and dropped Froch for the first time in his career in the third round. Though the rounds were close, Taylor had a decent lead going into the final round, which left Froch likely needing a stoppage if he wasn't to fail in his debut defense. This is that final round....

And this is exactly why I'm sympathetic to your viewpoint. I did a pod last year with Jeff and have written articles using the Titanic as an analogy for this very position.
You can recognise Bitcoin as the lifeboat, but if you're underwater on the bottom deck of the Titanic and you can't breathe, then a lifeboat won't save you in time.
That's why I'm a big believer in reading the likes of 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' and 'The Richest man in Babylon' as a starting point. You've got to pay yourself first and save something (in bitcoin) for your future self. It's existential. You'll then start to see the polarity of the two systems, as one gets worse and the other gets better.
And clearly, fiat inflation will make life more and more difficult in this system, but Bitcoin will reflect this, literally like a mirror image. It has to.
Both paragraphs you've written are absolutely true. And it will get worse and worse. So the question should be which system are you going to give more of your energy to if you know this?
Honestly, I tread a horribly fine line in my day to day life and have witnessed it as a small business owner getting progressively more difficult for several years. But transferring what energy you can into Bitcoin, both literally and financially, is the only thing I believe you can do. I just see it as a priority, not as something to do at the end of the month.

2025-12-18 17:36:06 UTC

I'm sympathetic to your perspective and held the same one for a long time. I consistently have to check myself even now.
Those who are struggling, and I'd include myself in this, are not struggling because of a failure of Bitcoin, but because of personal finance. Spending less than you earn is the only place to start. Only then can you invest the difference in a new system that will measure deflation and reward a low time preference.
Bitcoin will always 'go up' when measured against pieces of paper over a long enough timescale.

The point is that it greatly reduces the friction points to do so. Yes, it's true that governments can pressure commercial banks to restrict access, but a CBDC would eventually remove the intermediary and give them absolute control.
It's mission creep towards a system whereby the issuance, usage, access and activity are all under one umbrella.

2025-12-10 16:27:19 UTC

- reply

My take would be that commercial banks are gradually disintermediated. So, we don't all immediately have accounts directly issued by the central bank, but perhaps access via products issued by commercial banks at first.
If this happens, I'd say it's a decent bet that the end goal would be for everyone to have direct CBDC accounts with the central bank, perhaps on the premise of financial inclusion for everyone.
Once commercial banks lose their status, there's nothing between the customer and the central bank issuing and, most important, programming, the currency. They can then do what they want (link access, rates, privileges, to your social credit score).
Like I say, I'm not overly concerned either, but I think this is the gist of most people's fears.

2025-12-10 13:34:48 UTC

- reply

Thanks for your reply, but I'm not sure I agree.
Negative interest rates for example. It's true that they could be employed now. But this would be through commercial banks. If this happened, people would rush to withdraw their money, a run on the banks. Through a CBDC, the commercial banks would be disintermediated. The policy would be set and implemented by the central bank directly.
It's true that there's already a net surrounding us, but CBDCs allow that net to be tightened further. For what it's worth, I don't particularly fear this, as I think attempts to employ it would push more people into Bitcoin. There are two systems we can choose from. A CBDC just makes the choice even more stark and obvious. It's an act of desperation from a failing system.

When it's digitally created by the central bank, it gives total control to the central bank.
The threat is not that it's digital, we already have that. It's that it becomes programmable with it.
Imagine a money whereby your access to it can be turned off. Where negative interest rates can be issued instantly and personally to individuals based on behaviour.
It's a totalitarian's wet dream and Bitcoin is the antithesis.

Respectfully, I disagree. He's been an incredible spokesperson for Bitcoin, but it's a new paradigm, not an asset within the fiat system.
This whole rebranding of Bitcoin as digital gold or digital capital is the threat to Bitcoin. It's a store of value yes, but his reluctance to embrace it as a medium of exchange of unit of account is telling.
I prefer not to speculate on individuals, but he will ultimately have some decisions to make. It may well be that he's the one wheeling in the Trojan horse, but this phase is accumulating massive amounts of bitcoin in centralised, corporate hands.

I credit Farage with being one of the people who made me realise many of the opinions I held were not my own. Rather, they were the opinions of others that I subconsciously believed were mine.
I was probably slightly repelled by him back in 2020, but found myself watching a YouTube advert for his newsletter after going down the inflation rabbit hole. Imagine my surprise when I found his financial insights and commentary, much of which centered around gold, quite in line with my own. I read it for a while before moving on, but vowed that I would always be a practitioner rather than a theorist from then on.
A few years on and I realise that much of what I thought I knew, particularly when it came to opinions on individuals, was actually subconscious programming formed from the habits of my consumption. A few thousand pages of David Icke later and I definitely have my own viewpoints, not always right and certainly open to change, but my own nonetheless.
I don't believe the answers necessarily lie within the political sphere, but Reform and Farage have done plenty to bring debate into the mainstream. He's Diet Trump at best.

Maybe. Honestly, I've got more questions than answers at this stage. The two systems are fundamentally incompatible. These products use bitcoin as an asset within the current financial system, rather than recognise it as something completely new, freestanding and independent.
I appreciate @nprofile…za3a. He's one of the best orators on these topics in this space. I fully believe he's a good actor and simply creating things in response to customer demand. He's a prolific contributor and we're lucky to have him. I'd like that to be completely clear.
I just can't square the circle of using bitcoin as collateral within the debt based fiat system, when I see it as a replacement. Perhaps it's part of the bridge to get there, hence why I ask the questions.

To be fair, Daniel didn't name you or Strike specifically - I brought Strike into the conversation simply because I'm a customer of yours, and a happy one at that. I'd rather tag you and engage than post without giving you a right to reply.
For the most part, I don't think this counts as mob or cancel culture, rather bitcoiners who have valid questions who are trying to navigate a new emerging system.
My issue has been with the framing of how these products work in principle, not in theory. Newcomers ought to be very clear that bitcoin's CAGR is not a steady 50%. Bitcoin is freedom money and people can do exactly as they please with it - they should be fully informed however, and asking questions will always be a vital component of that.
A 5% price drop is hardly big news, but a true bear market like we've seen before could trigger margin calls and I don't think continuing to make people aware of this is encouraging mob behaviour.

I'm a Strike customer and have a huge amount of respect for @nprofile…8sjr , but the borrow against your bitcoin narrative has been something I've struggled to reconcile in my own mind. I've tagged Jack as a Strike user, but it could have been any number of people really.
As I understand it, Strike have partnered with financial service companies like Nydig to offer the funding for their loan products. That's Nydig led by Ross Stevens, who was interviewed by Saylor at the MSTR world conference in 2021. I reference that because Nydig clearly understand bitcoin deeply.
Amongst that understanding will be that, if measured in dollars, as an asset within the current system (which it's not), it has a CAGR of roughly 50%. It begs the question then, why would they sacrifice this return for an interest rate of 10% on capital lent out to bitcoiners? Particularly if they understand this at a fundamental level.
The play here is to amass bitcoin and it seems clear to me that they will have run the probabilities and come to the conclusion that enough people will get overstretched, under-collateralised, and ultimately margin called.
They're always 12 month terms, which is not a safe investment period given bitcoin's volatility. Jack and Mark Moss have both given examples of how these products could work, but always with a 12 month loan, whereby magically, at the end of this period, bitcoin's price will have risen 50%.
I find it totally misleading and, given that bitcoin is perfect collateral and doesn't require credit checks, people will be able to enter into these loans very easily.
I'm sure I'm getting something wrong along the way, maybe with how the funding process works behind the scenes, but I'm old enough to remember 'not your keys, not your coins'. This message seems to have been lost in the name of 'collaborative custody'.
I can't help thinking that a lot of people are going to have to eventually make a choice between defaulting on their loans or continually posting more and more of their stack as collateral.
I'd love to hear a response as to why I'm getting this wrong.

2025-10-23 13:51:32 UTC

Agreed. It's becoming increasingly clear that Saylor sees Bitcoin as something that will revolutionise the current system, whereas Jeff sees it as a replacement and fundamentally incompatible. Saylor's interviews were a key component in my initial understanding of Bitcoin, but it's hard to see how the path he's forging doesn't lead to precisely what Jeff has guarded against. It's not an asset within the credit based system, it's a new system entirely. It's not a store of value, but new money that satisfies all criteria as money, including medium or exchange and unit of account.

Just playing devil's advocate here, but do you not think that point 2 is exactly his point?
His concerns around Knots seem to be centred around Luke being the only lead maintainer. As far as I'm aware, he's certainly never recommended upgrading to version 30.
What we need is to keep all aspects of bitcoin as decentralised as possible - mining, ownership and node software.
As a prominent voice in the space, if he were to give put his full weight behind Knots it could have a large impact. Maybe it's correct that he's cautious with his opinion and guarded about what he recommends.
For what it's worth, I recommend Knots. But not to everyone. Multiple node implementations are what's required and people should have more than one choice. Not upgrading is still a vote against version 30.
To be clear though, Core version 30 has been a shit show and is an open arms gesture to spam and non-monetary transactions.

The last part of your post really resonated. I've been trying to put my finger on why I still can't quite get over the line with thinking in Bitcoin.
Jeff is the person whose words I go back to time and time again for ultimate clarity. His perspective is unique in this space, and while I find myself transfixed on how he presents his ideas, I still think in fiat.
My debts are denominated in fiat, and still have control over so much of my day to day life. Bitcoin is probably the only way out I can see to settle them, so the correlation to the dollar/pound will remain relevant until they're gone.
I hinted at this when I spoke with him and used the analogy of the Titanic. I've secured my lifeboat and know I can be safe and have to get off, but I still feel tethered to the ship while it's sinking.

I always point people to Guy Ritchie's interview on Rogan. He describes the parable of the Prodigal Son and his interpretation of it, how he sees the young man and his older brother as the same person, but at different times in his life. The young brother spends his fortune on hedonism, whereas the older brother is loyal, frugal and helps his father.
He suggests we all have to go on the same path, searching for happiness through belongings, possessions and what society has told us will make us happy. It's a necessary journey that inevitably leads us back home and to the realisation that once our basic needs are met, happiness and fulfilment comes from family, roots, gratitude and inner realisation.
I couldn't agree more. Bitcoin has become an important part of that journey for me. Being able to relax about the future, knowing your basic needs are likely to be met allows us to plan without fear.

(In an Irish accent) I just want to take this opportunity to say he'll be sorely missed....
....by absolutely no-one.

If you want to get a better understanding of the downstream effects of fiat money, then have a listen to my interview with Seb Bunney.
Many thanks to @npub1tm2…lpna for your generosity in giving me the time to to speak with you. I've learnt a huge amount from your book and can highly recommend 'The Hidden Cost of Money' to those who want to explore further. I found the hidden symbol though it took me a while!

Central banks, the BIS and the IMF all have a shout here as well.

Kinda wish I'd spent the day on Nostr reading these takes than wading through the mire on Twitter.

"I'm stamping my seed" might just be your best work yet!

It is possible to agree with the sentiment of someone's words without necessarily believing that they will act upon them. Endorsing words and the people speaking them are not the same thing.

I've been married for 10 years.
I've been a father for 8 years.
I've been hodling for 4 years.
And I can confidently say that I should have started hodling earlier.

Maybe our kids will grow up more financially educated and save from an earlier age. A truly free market that allows for deflation and saving being rewarded rather than punished leads to second and third order effects that most people haven't considered.

I'm just watching it now and it strikes me that Michael sees bitcoin as a store of value, but doesn't buy the medium of exchange and unit of account cases. Comparing the ARRs of different assets priced in dollars and seeing bitcoin come out on top just reinforces to me that everything falls against it, just at different rates.

Over the last few weeks, I've started a Bitcoin podcast and launched a Substack. I've recorded one episode and written three articles from scratch, and have another (excellent) guest lined up whom I'll be speaking with soon. As well as this, I've began my Nostr journey, quite the feat for a non-tech guy like me. All the while holding down my full-time job and being a hopefully excellent father and husband. I've resisted the temptation to bombard people with all of this and am trying to let it spread organically and see where it leads. If you've read or watched anything I've done and would like to share it, it's hugely appreciated. If not, I'm going to keep on at it anyway, because I believe in the cause of spreading the message about bitcoin and problems it can solve. Spending more time building the system you want to live in truly is its own reward and if I can be a small part of the transition, then truly, anyone can. If you've read this far and have an itching to write, produce, meme or shitpost to amplify the message, then just go ahead and do it - we're all Satoshi.
