Awesome video from @nprofile…m6g4 on how to divide your seed phrase using the “Poor Man’s Shamir Secret Sharing Scheme.”
I also think that passphrases or multisig wallets can be quite complex and risky, especially for beginners. Dividing your seed might therefore be a good compromise - increasing security while keeping the risk of making a mistake relatively low.

For me, spirituality is about finding my own truth, transcending fear, and having faith that things will eventually work out. It’s about managing my emotions and trusting that I’m constantly evolving and learning. On a practical level, it empowers me to take back control by choosing to focus on what’s good and what I can grow from.
In that sense, I’m glad Bitcoin exists. Sometimes it’s one of the few things that keeps my hope alive for a better future. ✨

Nostr is still early, but the upside for creators and businesses is huge. Unlike past social platforms that rise and fall, Nostr lets you build a portable, ownable audience you never lose. Being early here isn’t just getting ahead on one app - it’s getting ahead on every app that will ever be built on the protocol.

Breath | James Nestor — Highlights, Part 2
A 70-year longitudinal research program discovered that the greatest indicator of lifespan wasn’t genetics, diet, or daily exercise - as many had assumed - but lung capacity.
Moderate exercise like walking or cycling has been shown to increase lung size by up to 15%.
The key to healthy breathing, optimal lung expansion, and the longevity associated with it lies in the transformative power of a full exhalation.
Over time, shallow breathing limits the range of the diaphragm and reduces lung capacity. It can also contribute to the high-shouldered, chest-out, neck-extended posture often seen in people with asthma or other respiratory issues.
Big, heavy, rapid breathing can do more harm than good, as it can lead to excessive oxygen intake and deplete carbon dioxide levels.
Carbon dioxide has a strong dilating effect on blood vessels, opening pathways that allow more oxygen-rich blood to reach the cells.
When we follow a slow breathing pattern, blood flow to the brain increases, and the body enters a state of coherence - when the functions of the heart, circulation, and nervous system align in peak efficiency.
Research suggests that one of the most efficient breathing rhythms is a 5.5-second inhale followed by a 5.5-second exhale, equaling roughly 5.5 breaths per minute. The benefits were notable even when practiced for just 5–10 minutes a day. This is also known as coherent breathing.
This style of breathing offers similar benefits to meditation for those who don’t enjoy meditating—or to yoga for those who prefer to stay on the couch.
Try this 👇
Use an app (I use the free version of Breathe!) and set up a custom 5.5-second coherent breathing practice. Challenge yourself to do it for at least 5 minutes a day for two months. It can work wonders ✨

Breath | James Nestor - Highlights, Part 1
After a retreat in Bali that focused heavily on breathwork for regulating the nervous system, I became curious to dive into James Nestor’s book Breath.
Over the next few days, I’ll share some highlighted sections that I think are especially worthwhile.
So here’s Part 1:
Research suggests that many modern conditions—such as asthma, anxiety, ADHD, psoriasis, and more—may be influenced by the way we breathe.
Breathing can give us a way to regulate the nervous system, influence the immune response, and support overall health.
Mouth breathing, on the other hand, has been associated with various issues including high blood pressure, depression, headaches, chronic insomnia, sleep apnea, and increased stress.
This one simple habit changes more than you think 👇:
Try to breathe through your nose as often as possible. At night, some people use a small piece of surgical tape to encourage nasal breathing. If this feels uncomfortable, you can ease into it by gradually increasing the time. (Always stop if it feels unsafe or restrictive.)

I just watched this Diary of a CEO podcast.
Here‘s what I learned about sleep and how to improve it. 👇
Here are the big insights:
1. You can’t “make up” lost sleep — but you can bank it
Sleeping in on weekends won’t fix chronic sleep deprivation.
But if you know a short night is coming (travel, deadlines, shift work), you can proactively increase sleep in the days before to buffer the impact.
2. Digital detox matters — but not because of blue light
Blue light only marginally affects melatonin (≈2.2% change in sleep efficiency).
The real issue? The stimulation and light exposure from screens keep your brain in “daytime mode.”
At least one hour of tech-free wind-down time still makes a meaningful difference.
3. Melatonin isn’t a universal sleep fix
Low doses (0.1–3 mg) can be helpful for:
• Jet lag (timing is critical),
• Certain circadian rhythm disorders.
But long-term effects on your body’s natural melatonin production remain unclear. It’s a tool — not a nightly crutch.
4. The #1 sleep superpower: Regularity
Go to bed and wake up at roughly the same time every day (±15 minutes).
Regular sleepers show a 49% relative reduction in all-cause mortality in some cohorts - a staggering effect.
Consistency beats quantity.
5. Quantity still matters — but not the “8-hour myth”
Most adults thrive at 7–9 hours, with 7 hours often being the “critical minimum” for optimal functioning.
“8 hours” is not a universal rule.
6. Quality = continuity
Good sleep is uninterrupted sleep.
Aim for:
• 85%+ sleep efficiency (if you track it),
• Enough deep, slow-wave sleep.
Fragmented sleep reduces the restorative benefits even if total hours are the same.
8. Light sets the rhythm
In the hour before bed, keep light exposure under 30 lux (a lux meter app can help).
Warm, yellow, minimal lighting tells your brain: It’s night. Power down.
9. Alcohol, caffeine & cortisol matter
• Caffeine’s half-life can stealthily disrupt sleep even 6–10 hours after consumption.
• Alcohol fragments sleep and suppresses REM.
• Ashwagandha may help reduce cortisol for some people, but responses vary.
10. Don’t miss REM — it’s night-time therapy
REM dominates the second half of the night.
Waking too early means missing the sleep stage where the brain turns off noradrenaline (the stress chemical), giving us emotional processing, learning, and mental reset.

Lately, I’ve been contemplating whether we might actually live in a simulation. Interestingly, many religious and philosophical texts from around the world seem to hint at that idea.
That train of thought led me to rewatch The Truman Show after many years; and a few quotes really stood out:
“Why do you think Truman has never come close to discovering the true nature of his world until now?”
“We accept the reality of the world with which we’re presented. It’s as simple as that.”
“If he were absolutely determined to discover the truth, there’s no way we could prevent him.”
“Ultimately, Truman prefers his cell, as you call it.”
“You’re afraid. That’s why you can’t leave.”
Let’s question what’s real, and what’s merely presented to us as reality.

There’s a lot of uncertainty in the market right now. Have we already hit the top and are heading into a bear phase or will the bull run resume after the recent sell-off from long-term HODLers?
Interestingly, none of the 30 major market indicators have signaled a cycle top yet. Will they still flash in time, or are the traditional models breaking down?
According to Marc Friedrich & Partner, the old indicators may no longer work.
That’s why they’ve developed a new approach: bitcointop.de.
Instead of trying to predict the exact cycle top, their model focuses on identifying the market’s current condition — whether it’s overheated, overbought, or neutral. It provides an objective snapshot that helps investors better assess risk and make informed decisions.
Key values:
Bitcoin < 20: This is a great buying opportunity.
Bitcoin > 80: Caution! Market is overheating.
Bitcoin > 90: Mania, don't buy now!

Vielen Dank für dieses tolle Video 🙏✨.
Habe gerade das Kapitel nochmals gelesen und möchte folgendes hervorheben:
„Die Schöpfung besteht sowohl aus Licht als auch aus Schatten, denn sonst kämen keine Bilder zustande. Gut und Böse gewinnen innerhalb der Maya ständig abwechselnd die Oberhand. Oder würden sich die Menschen jemals nach einer anderen Welt sehnen, wenn die hiesige Welt nichts als Freuden böte? Erst wenn sie leiden, erinnern sie sich ihrer ewigen Heimat, die sie verlassen haben.“

Does Bitcoin have its IPO moment? 👀
„From speculation to institution. From cypherpunk experiment to global asset. From concentrated to distributed. From volatile to stable. From revolutionary to foundational.“

I joined a very interesting talk on Tether‘s new AI, QVAC, during the Plan B Conference in Lugano. Gives me hope to stay somewhat self sovereign also in a dystopian future 😉.
The QVAC platform introduces a new way to think about artificial intelligence - one that puts control, privacy and autonomy back into the hands of users.
Unlike traditional AI systems that rely on centralized cloud servers, QVAC lets AI agents run directly on your device: your phone, laptop, or local hardware.
This means:
🔒 More privacy & security
Your data stays on your device instead of being sent to big data centers.
⚡ Offline & resilient AI
You can use AI even with limited connectivity.
🤝 Peer-to-peer communication Devices talk directly to each other, reducing dependence on any single company or authority.
💰 Built-in payment capabilities QVAC integrates payment systems like USDT and Bitcoin, allowing autonomous agents to transact securely.
They also offer specific health and translation apps. Check out more info at https://qvac.tether.io/.

Great read and glad you had an awesome time in Lugano.
If you ever need organization/logistics support, let me know. I‘m travelling a lot myself and I‘m quite good at that stuff ☺️.

Yes, I have changed my approach and now walk without a distraction. Let me know how it goes 😊

Who else wants to make efficient use of their time and make a phone call or listen to a podcast while walking? This might actually be counterproductive…
See the insights of the book The Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter 👇.
Studies show that a just 20-minute stroll through a park or forest can cause profound changes in the neurological structure of our brain. This leaves us feeling calmer and with sharper and more productive minds. But, they found that people who used their cellphone on the walk saw none of these benefits.
The sweet spot seems to be 20 minutes outside, three times a week - the dose of nature that most efficiently dropped people‘s levels of the stress hormone cortisol.

Book Insights on Boredom 👇
„Tolstoy had this great quote in Anna Karenina that says boredom is a ‚desire for desires‘. So boredom is a motivational state.
The hours of attention we are giving to digital media isn‘t free. It‘s all spent in focused mode. Think of this focused state like lifting a weight and the unfocused state like resting. When we kill our boredom by burying our minds in a phone, TV or computer, our brain is putting forth a shocking amount of effort and we overwork it.
Our collective lack of boredom may be causing us to reach near-crisis level of mental fatigue. Overworked, undermaintained minds are linked to depression, life dissatisfaction, the perception that life goes by quicker, and increasingly missing the beauty of life that only presents itself when we allow our mind to wander and be aware of something other than a screen.“
From: The Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter
How are you dealing with boredom? Trying to push it away and be busy or allow your mind to wander?

Have a look at how a self-sovereign super-human intelligence can look like in the future in this fireside chat with Paolo Ardoino from Tether and Marcus Gerhardt, CEO and Co-founder of Blackrock Neurotech.
Elon Musk with his company Neuralink are pioneers in this field and that this technology will advance more, likely also in non-patient users, is certain. Paolo/Tether now invested in Blackrock Neuralink to be at the forefront of this technology and ensure how it can be advanced in an ethical way that supports agency and control so that we can continue to own our thoughts, data and decisions.
Super scary thought for me as I don‘t want a chip implanted in my brain - what do you think?

This is in my X feed today! Dystopian developments from Germany/EU:
1. Reversal of proof: Anyone who owns assets with unclear origins will in the future have to prove that the money was acquired legally. So much for the right of ownership and the presumption of innocence that used to be the foundation.
2. The EU also wants to introduce a minimum age for social media and could mandate digital IDs.
3. From 2030, driving licenses will be digital, and traffic violations will apply across the EU.
Does anyone else feel that things are accelerating?

Seeing Steven Bartlett in Bali was amazing 🤩.
He shared that instead of trying to predict what will change in the future, we should think about what likely won’t.
Even in the age of AI, one thing seems certain: our desire to connect face-to-face. If anything, technology may make in-person connection even more valuable, serving as an antidote to digital interactions.
That’s why human skills like empathy, communication, collaboration are only becoming more important.

It‘s like Saylor said about Bitcoin: probably there‘s no need (yet) for the majority of the population. If censorship and threats against current free-speech platforms continue, like now with Telegram, and maybe later with Twitter/X, I‘m sure people will see the need and benefit of Nostr and will start engaging with it!
