 You And Your Small Community Are The Only People Left On Earth

I was on the fence for a long time due to the privacy crowd getting mad at them for blacklisting addresses. But after listing to max hilliebrand on the crypto voice podcast I decided to try it out. It is very different than 1.0 but I Like you don’t need a lot of sats to gain privacy. I think I mixed like 200k sats and I don’t think I paid a fee. 

The previous comments on this left by @scampy are addressed by max himself in the pod

A week ago, @bief57 was asking how we met SN. It made me think about my journey. 

I could not think 13 months ago that I would be writing a post about my journey towards bitcoin. Back then, I was with friends from University with whom I gathered up to four times a year. As always, talking about old histories and families, enjoying some beers, wine or spirits and the occasional discussion about investing. I must say that, at that point, I was fully against even considering bitcoin as a possible asset. 

Towards the end of the day, one of my friends mentioned how a podcast was helping him to deal with daily situations. It was about stoicism. He sent me a link and, to be honest, I forgot about it. Two months later, I got in touch with my friend through a message and I noticed the link he sent me. That day, I had some spare time and I began listening to the podcast. 

I got hooked. After a few episodes of the podcast, I was virtually walking along Marco Aurelio, Seneca and Epicteto. Being aware of the dichotomy of control and learning skills to deal with my passions (including my worst: wrath ). 

It also triggered to find motivation to start reading again after a good number of years. I read How to be a stoic by Massimo Pigliucci and A guide to the good life by William Irvine.

But the podcast was not only about stoicism. One day, an economist, Joan Tubau came to the podcast. He was talking about his own podcast where he discussed about money, literature and careers. Somewhat, I ended up listening to his podcast too. 

It was a bit of fresh air. Again, dealing with different aspects of life including how to invest money, how to develop your career and more books. I can only recommend two of them: Company of One by Paul Jarvis and How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie. 

Visitors of the podcast were fund managers, entrepreneurs, traders and even translators from Russian to Spanish (there is an interesting episode about Tolstoi). One day, a chap called @lunaticoin came to the podcast. I thought he was going to be one of the weird episodes (those included a day trader earning huge profit from Ethereum or another who spend a few years in prison). 

I was wrong. He opened my eyes to bitcoin and what it means. Made me follow him to his podcast and I began to fall into the burrow. He led me to www.estudiobitcoin.com and I made lists in X to follow bitcoiners to get rid of the absurd noise.

One of those I follow on X, @flix2 , wrote a post to move to Nostr. I was curious about what  it was and I checked, then I began posting photos that have stored over the years. I love checking them from time to time as they bring memories from times past. 

As I mentioned in a comment in @bief57 ‘s post, @TNStacker sent me a link to try SN and here I am, learning and enjoying from all of you.
