I believe we all have this nameless, endless Want in our Being. We identify it differently, and at different times in different ways. But the Want is always there. It feeds Me, feeds on Me. Accepting, recognizing and managing this Want is what builds character. Feeding this unidentifiable Want is our life-path. A necessity. Allowing it to feed on Me is a mis-judgement. It’s quite the conundrum, just trying to Be Me. My 2-sats this evening, apropos of the spam-wars.

Spammers are at it again.

Bitcoin has successfully scaled. Cycles are done, as we knew them. Plebs will be replaced by Retail. Institutions will accumulate, but unemotionally (b/c they handle other peoples money). Deep State/Mike Benz’ “The Blob” will assail anyone who has access to Bitcoin code from all angles, not to stop Bitcoin, but to shape it in their own image. Those who have loved Bitcoin for most of their lives need to kneel and make a parting grace. Bitcoin is venturing out on its own. You need to accept that its not Yours anymore.

OG Bitcoiners will always be selling now, into $100k. Class of 2017 will always be selling soon, into $500k. Class of 2020 will always be selling later, into $1million. Wall Street (or its like) will always be buying, always. We all bought and will sell Bitcoin at the price we deserve! But we’ll always leave a smaller bag for our heirs. And they, a smaller bag still. Ad terminum. [Except the corporations who live indefinitely and leverage their Bitcoin bags and therefore might accrete non-degenerating wealth and will be fighting far beyond our mortal lives to accumulate the Bitcoin we mortal beings will continually sell to them.] Hope is funny that way. Fleeting, even in the best of times. But it has always has been. Even with Bitcoin. Nostrovia!

🛢️ 🛢️ 🛢️ Oil plummets further, below the 59ksat level. WTI Crude Oil is at 58,888 sats per barrel on this fine Friday. Enjoy your weekend Pleb! 🛢️ 🛢️ 🛢️

Signothermal Spectralwallet photography of Max Keiser’s “OG” Pre-History bags shows they’ve been massively depleted at the sub-$100k stratum. Osiris is the only limit now for Bitcoin.

The first tiny steps toward Oil priced in sats. Hyper-Bitcoinization has begun. “Emarat, a state-owned oil company in the UAE boasting a market value of nearly $14 billion, has begun accepting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as fuel payments. The cooperation with Crypto.com, announced on May 8, 2025, stands to benefit both the digital currency adoption in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and the energy sector. Ten Emarat service stations, which already have the Crypto.com payment infrastructure installed, will be the first to implement it. This attempts to make it possible for consumers to use supported digital assets to pay for gas and convenience shop purchases. In addition, this pilot program intends to spread throughout Emarat’s more than 155 service stations in the United Arab Emirates, contingent on regulatory permission and consumer feedback.”
