Show Notes

Along the way, the conversation branches into decentralization, running nodes, the Core vs. Knots debate, governance, and why a plurality of node implementations might be Bitcoin’s immune system. #Bitcoin #AttentionEconomy #Doomscrolling #BigTech #Dopamine #SurveillanceCapitalism #BitcoinNova #CoreVsKnots #Decentralization #BitcoinNodes #TheSocialDilemma #BitcoinArmy #ParanoiaInitiative This one’s raw, eye-opening, and packed with perspectives from Bitcoiners who refuse to be mined. ⚡ Topics include: Escaping the attention economy Dopamine, addiction & Big Tech manipulation The Social Dilemma documentary Bitcoin as the ultimate mined resource that starves the system of the attention it needs to survive. 🔥 Big thanks to my sponsors for supporting The Bitcoin Nova 🔥 🪙 MicroSeed – Titanium seed phrase backup for life 👉 microseed.io 💸 Code XSTACI = 5% OFF 🛡 The Bitcoin Adviser – Multisig made simple.
