Another coffee to my #coffeechain 🔥
Years ago, I read a book that I still think about regularly. Unfortunately, I had forgotten its title and couldn't find it again despite an intensive search. Enter grok. Grok found it for me with two searches. The book is called "Holy Fire" and was written by Bruce Sterling.
When I read it back then, I wasn't a Bitcoiner yet. But since that changed, I've been reminded of one aspect of this book more often.
It's set in a medium-term future on Earth, where there are very wealthy elderly people. However, the majority of the population lives on money given to them so they can satisfy basic needs.
The important distinction is that there are two different types of money:
the valuable money that the elderly, wealthy people possess. And then the money that is given to the population to buy things like rent, food and clothing. But with this inferior money you can't, for example acquire land, buildings or other capital.
Through my journey down the Bitcoin path, I can easily imagine all of this as a possible, realistic future.

Back in school, you ever get busted for trying to walk and have some administrator tell you, "Son, you can shirk your obligations and try to be different from your peers, but the responsibility of your future is gonna find you!"
Tried Hershey’s chocolate for the first time today. It’s got a sort of vomit aftertaste. Slightly bitter. It’s interesting.
When I have kids one day, when they’re rather naughty that’s what I’d give them. The taste of disappointment.
My personal chocolate list:
1. Swiss chocolate 👌🏽
2. British chocolate
3. Dubai chocolate

The best time to buy Bitcoin was 15 years ago. The second-best time is now.
So there is a second-best... 🤔

There was a beautiful land called Fuh
And in this land there was a king
And everybody called him the Fuh King
ALL HAIL THE FUH KING! 😆

Brute Force
1969
“King of Fuh,” a song written in 1967 by Brute Force, holds a particular place in The Beatles’ history. The track, which chronicles the life of the “Fuh King,” caught the attention of John Lennon and George Harrison. Harrison added string arrangements to the song, and the duo tried to convince EMI or Capitol Records to release it as a single. However, both labels declined, likely due to the song’s suggestive title, which they feared would limit radio airplay. Undeterred, Lennon and Harrison released “King of Fuh” on Apple Records, pressing only 1,000 copies. While the record was not a commercial success, it has become a sought-after collector’s item, often fetching thousands of dollars.

So let me get this straight
1. Fake email
2. Fake date of birth
3. Fake name
4. Debit card not connected to my identity which I filled up using Bitcoin
5. Phone number not connected to my identity which I bought (how? I don’t even know)
All to only leak my IP to Twitter (Israeli intelligence) instead of leaking it to my relays?
And I’m still not completely sold on the ID argument seeing as their graphic included ID verification, but I couldn’t get further without giving them my phone number
