We do indeed. Few things better than buying things using bitcoin, such as your soap.
We as a community need to focus more on advocating for the use of bitcoin day to day.

Thank you @nprofile…t4t4 ! I have read The Body Electric but have never watched a video of his. Thanks for sharing. I am very familiar with the work of @nprofile…xzlt and Jack Kruse. I spend much of my free time trying to study their work so that I can understand quantum biology to the best of my ability.

Couldn’t agree more. Property rights are sacred.
Seems to me there are more and more conversations in Bitcoin that propose a violation of such rights.
As Bitcoin matures and grows, the frequency of people who wish to violate property rights will likely grow as well.

I personally find this to be a gross over-simplification. Humans need to be careful of glorifying our thoughts and thinking. There is much more to biological life and consciousness than thinking. AI is far from what we are.
If anything, Bitcoin needs to be involved. As at least Bitcoin is constantly maintaining a kind homeostasis. This is a function much more akin to biological life.
Thinking takes us away from the conscious experience.

That’s cool, you are entitled to your opinion.
I am a little unsure you quite understand what a chain rewrite would entail, because BlackRock having influence over Bitcoin mining companies certainly does not lead to that possibility. It would require so much more.
I have also rarely ever, maybe never, seen monero being accepted at any merchant I have interacted with.
I pay for my life using bitcoin, I don’t see how that would be remotely possible using monero.
I also very much disagree on many levels that it’s hopium to think the world will move to a Bitocin standard. But this thread of replies is long enough.
Again, I am happy to agree to disagree.

While it’s good to be wary of all of that stuff, I certainly do not find it any reason to store my wealth in a less secure network.
Bitcoin is money. Everyone will own money. That is inevitable.
If you wish to own some coin on a network that no powerful entities hold, you will likely never have money that the rest of the world accepts as a medium of exchange.
Those entities hold Bitcoin because it is secured by energy. Energy is power. Bitcoin gives power to anyone that holds it. I can’t say the same for the other coins.

2025-11-05 19:06:46 UTC

- reply

If a coin is secured by less hash power, then it is easier for a state actor (as an example) to come up with enough hashrate to rewrite the chain. The more energy at your disposable, the more capable you are of creating a longer chain and rewriting the networks history.
This has not happened yet, but it’s possible. It is why Bitcoin is so secure. The amount of energy required to rewrite Bitcoin is immense. This isn’t as true for the others.

2025-11-05 18:05:26 UTC

- reply

It’s not just about whether or not it’s PoW or not. Many shitcoins are PoW. Dogecoin and BTC Cash are PoW.
PoW is progressively more secure the more mining that happens. This is one of the equations in the Bitcoin white paper.
Comparing the PoW of Bitcoin to the PoW of a shitcoin is like comparing a wooden box to a metal safe. Sure, both can secure your funds, but one is far far far more thermodynamically secure than the other.

Hopefully I can provide a kind and helpful answer here. While Monero is attractive because of its privacy benefits, similar benefits can be achieved through Bitcoin.
All cryptocurrencies, in my opinion, are shitcoins except for Bitcoin because they are not secured by the vast amount of energy that Bitcoin is secured by.
The PoW energy that supports Bitcoin is what makes it truly something special.

In short, it is about him waking up from a dream that he was a butterfly, only to turn around and essentially ask “how do I know I’m not a butterfly dreaming im a human?”
I think it’s a beautiful parable. One that addresses the nature of the self, and fundamentally questions the means at which we self identify.
I use 荘子 parables in my book often. There is a lot of wisdom in there.

This is a wonderful article. Thank you for putting it together. Consciousness surely is poorly defined, yet we all vaguely know what it is referring to. That being said, not having a clear definition can make our discussions challenging. In my book, The Ancient Way of the Mind, I choose to define consciousness as the "experience of life". In tandem with exploring the neuroscience of how the brain generates the sense of the self, I use this definition of consciousness to try and distinguish between the experienced self from, what I call, the true Self.

The book focuses on the nature of the self, and how our relationship with the self influences our ability to understand reality.
Years of research has resulted in a narrative that weaves together the neuroscience of meditation, a perspective on the development of world religions, and how the computer rectifies aspects of society that are issues resulting from our abstract thinking (language, money, etc).
