#690: Why Billionaires Shouldn't Give It All Away with Johann Kurtz

This was fantastic! Erik confirmed I’m not crazy thinking most people are cowardly, cucked pussies. Hodl got me thinking deeper, longer term on leaving the world a better place. All set to the Smooth Jazz voice that is Walker. Brilliant!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

⚡️⚡️FINANCE BRO PODCASTS ARE THE REAL SHITCOIN!!!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣

⚡️⚡️⚡️🤣🔥🤣🔥

Continued love from the Seattle crew

Great rip!! 🫡👍🏻

Mid and upper models of Flair Espresso maker are plastic free in the brewing areas and around $400-500. Tradeoff is it’s manual but that is just more proof of work. Pair with a metal hot water kettle and you’re all set.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great vibes

👍🏻👍🏻💯

🔥🔥🔥 the Stormlight Archive series by Brandon Sanderson is the best modern fantasy series, fight me

Nostr sneak peek ftw, great idea

Ben, if you see bears in the future, give them something they'd want instead of grapes. Picnic baskets.

Ben's the Boy who cried Bear. Haha.

Buy wine and support Ben!!

Always great episodes!

Welcome back Walker, congrats on the bigger family Also, xpubs will only give unhardened addresses. That said, I expect a Venn diagram of people who didn't roll dice and people using hardened addresses is probably two separate circles.

The outernet stuff you're looking for the name of is Reticulum I suspect. Works over lora, Bluetooth, wifi, TCP/IP, ham radio (illegally -- its encrypted), wires...pretty much whatever you want. FIPS is another cool one you should all look at. Turns your npub into an IPv6 address. Talk to @npub1dergggklk… and Max Hillebrand

One of the best WBD's yet. Dines' coverage of the Eurodollar mechanics here and the shift that happened with LIBOR to SOFR is something far too few people are talking about (Luongo notwithstanding).

Great episode, Walker!

Whether people love them or not, super bullish to see tradFI products come to bitcoiners

👍🏻👍🏻

Embrace Christmas

5th appearance can’t come soon enough!!

Huge thank you to @npub1dmcd5wqd3… for this episode. I’m not a Chicago native, but growing up 90 miles SW (Starved Rock), weekend trips were a constant. I went to DePaul and lived in Lincoln Park in the late 90s /early 2000s. The city was beautiful. World-Class. I rarely go anymore. I’d never let my teenage kids run up there for the day, or a concert, like I constantly did. Chicago and Illinois are naturally beautiful, but being destroyed by greed, incompetence, and cheap money. Keep doing what you do, Jack, it is appreciated and valued.

Easily the best Pomp Podcast I’ve ever listened to. The explanation of tariffs, especially the 2018 examples, blow out my Overton Window. I really hope Pomp’s theory on the end goal plays out - we’ll be in a better world. Get on Nostr, Pomp!

Fantastic episode, Jack! I know several older Xers and Boomers who I’ll be sharing this with. Complete noob idea for a future show sounds great as well.

A million times yes. Thank you for addressing this in the right way. You're one of the only podcasts that hasn't responded to Coinkite with yet more bad options. Very much excited that Learning Bitcoin From The Command Line is getting a new edition too -- long overdue.

This was a fantastic episode, Jack!! I look forward to your show, every week. Keep it going!!

More miniscript please. I am not Rob.

Thanks, especially love hearing more about Liana, Anchorwatch, and miniscript

Re:other nodes and making news, you're clearly not watching Eric Voskuil on Twitter. Libbitcoin 4 just did IBD in 14 minutes on a consumer connection (with assumevalid height of 950k) and 55 min for full validation. Older than Knots, and older than Core being called, well, Core. They slept for a good few years but are waking up with a vengeance.

Awesome episode!! HUGELY interested in earning interest (in Sats or automated to buy them) on cash deposits, Jack!!

HAPPY Uptober! Anyone not enjoying it is a lame bear

👍🏻🫡 Thanks for the Fed acknowledgment, classy move

100% 🔥🔥 Jack!! I live and work in the part of Illinois (and neighboring states) south of I-80. It is a hollowed out shell. Towns withering away. Drugs, poverty, downtowns replaced with a Dollar General and a Caseys.

I make all my coffee at home to save sats and avoid annoying commies who hate me.

I love the new format! Keep it going!

Thanks for removing the friction from consuming Mises.
