In this episode of The Bitcoin Business Podcast, Brandon Karpeles talks with Patrick, founder of GreatGhee.com, a Bitcoin-native business making high-quality ghee directly from local farms in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley. Patrick shares how his entrepreneurial path—from flipping iPhones, to launching honey products, to experimenting with raw milk—ultimately led him to build a ghee business rooted in Bitcoin values: sovereignty, low time preference, and direct relationships with farmers. They discuss: Why ghee is the superior fat compared to seed oils and even “organic” olive oilHow building on a Bitcoin standard changes urgency an...

This year at Lake Satoshi, I think it's safe to say, the meshtadel truly went from concept to reality. From here on out, it's now about building it and making it stronger. I'm looking forward to more Bitcoiners joining us.

Calling all local Bitcoiners, you can pick up Otis Bitmeyer coffee direct at meetups in the Michigan meshtadel network! Come hang with me at The South Bend Indiana Bitcoin Meetup, the first Thursday every month at Lang Lab, 630pm. Learn something, earn something, share something, buy something, build relationships and resilience with local Bitcoiners.

I wonder how long the feedback loop will be to determine the consequences of more node runners taking the configuration of their nodes into greater consideration. Seems like it could take a while before hindsight becomes 2020.

The conviction of the pioneer is not so easily shaken. Most issues around Bitcoin are laughably inconsiquential to those building on the frontier. The further one separates from fiat the more free they will be.

Year of the firehorse, all y'all out there don't forget it! It's always a cool vibe in the bowl, constructive. Crashing out is not a bowl kind of vibe and I like that. Tried to boost from the @npub1cvcgs83gw… npub via boostmebitch.com but didn't quite get there, will try again! Looking forward to what you might find in the PO box too!

I agree completely that this idea of "fix the money, fix the world" has to begin from the individual. "Fix the money, fix the world" is a meme, a nugget of cultural capital. Fix the money, fix the world is simply an ideal not a formula. And by sharing this meme, Fix the Money, Fix the World, it's a short, compact way of communicating that ideal. It's a way for Bitcoiners to come into alignment culturally that Bitcoin will be used for the benefit of all.

@npub1yvscx9vrm… took the time to give @npub1cvcgs83gw… feedback about how we're incorporating #v4v into the podcast. We are learning so much from you and your years of experience. Jump to the local Bitcoiners time stamp to hear what he has to say and learn all about the philosophy of value for value.

I miss an episode and it's the one you guys give a massive shout out to @npub1cvcgs83gw… ! This is the #valuechain, high velocity exchange builds capital, especially if that exchange causes a chain reaction of capital to propagate. Not just financial capital (btc) but also intellectual, experiencial, social, cultural, spiritual, ect. This is how the world we want to live in gets built by participation and cooperation, big or small. The key right now is velocity in my opinion.

This entire podcast is loaded with valuable takeaways. Worth listening to twice. So damn good! Personally I resonated with the discussion on producing high quality consumable products that can't be recreated because nature is intimately involved. I feel the same way about breeding and growing cannabis.

I was called to Bitcoin during a meditation, I had barely even heard of Bitcoin. It didn't make sense but I went down the rabbit hole very deep and very fast. Definitely a sigma Bitcoiner for that reason, something higher was guiding me to Bitcoin. P.S. Thanks for listening to @npub1cvcgs83gw… Podcast too! So cool to build cultural capital through podcasting together!

Plebs become pioneers by participating in their local Bitcoin culture. @npub1cvcgs83gw… is the podcast where the plebs can find out about Bitcoin meetups and the pioneers can learn how to start one. Hyperbitcoinization is a local phenomena.

I'm thinking even more deeply about the earth disaster cycle and how to use permaculture to withstand it. There's so much evidence pointing to something happening over and over but the point about the megalithic structures being aligned to the stars suggests that the if the earths crust moves it does so much less often than every several thousand years or that if it does it somehow realigns back to its original position.

    Nostr is the location where Bitcoiners congregate to build capital in many forms. I look forward to seeing more and more goods available. It's an amazing opportunity to earn sats and provides much more utility for ones Bitcoin to be able to buy high quality items p2p.
