Last Notes
not gonna disagree with you, and we are asked to recite Al-Kahf for protection from Dajjal, perhaps for better or worse, inclusion reduces the splintering and delays the inevitable
There is blessing in being with the majority, and perhaps that is for the best, yet it puts us bitcoiners as illegitimate dealers in haram, holding the minority non-mufti-taqi-usmani view. Also rulings and times change. I'm just no longer so sure about what the Truth 100% is, and embrace the wisdom of Allah to be far greater. The path of Khidr A.S. as detailed in Surah Kahf was not the path of the Shari'ah, yet he was divinely guided.
lol where'd you get this? haha
the qur'an is distinct about what makes one muslim vs mu'min, so I expect jurisprudence, which deals with external matters, must similarly be more inclusive than matters of creed 🤷♂️
it's a pretty widely accepted majority (jumhur) consensus event among ahl sunnah jama'ah
It's built on the nation-state paradigm, but here is the list of signatories linked, do we just discredit and disregard it all?

The overall inclusion may be too broad, as protection from takfeer ought to be. Notably, Mufti Taqi Usmani (who currently does not consider bitcoin as maal) has explicitly endorsed it but added very specific exclusions, and he isn't a listed signatory.

communism is often practiced at home amongst family and many people find that to be an ideal way of being but have no lived experience coming up against the responsibilities and trade offs of actually scaling that outside some union representations (which are mostly run like corporations anyway to maximize dues)
I get the sentiment, and The Amman Message (2004) declares the Ja'fari Shia school of jurisprudence to be included among recognized valid schools of Islam. 🤷♂️
I am now an advocate for the acceleration of Islamic Finance till all the illusion of credit can be dissipated. Pour oil on those coals all you want, you'll never catch up to the money printer. People need cars and homes after all, good for you if you're among the few that get to keep them.

I swear they just took GPT5.6 and renamed it GPT6 and then nerfed/throttled 5.6 to older slower hardware so you have to spend more tokens for the same prior compute. Anthropic clearly did it with Fable excuse me for being fiat suspicious.
This one’s for Muslim eschatology - a possibility clicked in my head about prophetic tradition mentioning the lengthening of days and shortening of days to point of extreme where a day may be as a year. These could be astronomical events as we witness at the poles but have you ever considered time measured differently, as a time chain, where blocks can be delayed significantly? I imagine such phenomena would coincide with large events like solar storms or massive volcanic or even meteoric debris, but it’s whole not unlikely. God save us from such trials.
I believe in an infinitely abundant world, and I don't believe it will work for everyone if we do not respect and measure with truly scarce things like human life-time, sound money, and the courage in sacrificing the ego/self.

There is something almost darkly funny about an industry built around fixed claims and high contractual yields discovering that you cannot contractually command economic reality to generate enough surplus to service them. Private Credit should just be honest, copy Islamic Finance terms and be done with it. Win win win all around. Then we can really start talking about sound money.
You can now claim nip-05s for your character account on plus also store data and images on our blossom drive: https://frontiercrown.com/portal, still experimental
also prioritize multisig, or start the van life 🤣

I’m pretty much done with red eyes too lol
Your minibits wallet needs an update
Breez went down so everyone is switching to Spark... waiting on Ark to really offer some competition, just installed arkd today to understand where it's at
Seems like NIP-65 is not well adopted yet despite claims, broadcast is much slower

Could be! I’m a big fan of RuneScape and how they implemented Bonds in the game allowing for better interaction with real world value
Gresham’s Law is usually summarized as “bad money drives out good.” When two coins are legally treated as equal even though one contains more silver, people spend the worse coin and keep the better one. The stronger money disappears from ordinary circulation.
MMO economies complicate that story. In Diablo II, official gold became too abundant to matter for serious trade, so players shifted into scarcer assets like Stones of Jordan, gems and runes. Guild Wars developed a similar hierarchy, with gold handling ordinary transactions while ectoplasm and other scarce items became common for larger trades.
The difference is that players were free to price the currencies differently. A rune did not have to settle the same debt as a unit of gold. Once the market could recognize scarcity explicitly, the better monetary asset could carry a premium rather than simply disappearing into storage.
Edward Castronova helped establish virtual worlds as useful economic laboratories, while Alexander Salter and Solomon Stein later studied Diablo II specifically as a case of endogenous currency formation. Players were spontaneously separating the functions of money without being told to.
The abundant currency handled the small and frequent. The scarce currency increasingly handled the large and important. Gresham still seems to hold where monetary differences are suppressed, but once those differences can be priced, “good money” can move from something people save into something they prefer to settle serious trade with.

some neat muslim cyberspace writing, better posted on nostr, but oh well, will bring them over slowly but surely: https://husnayn.substack.com/p/the-techno-ontological-actualisation
Megalith provisioning usable wallets on AlbyHub without an upfront fee is a HUGE user experience upgrade, love it. I've dropped Ride The Lightning and Zeus though and switched to full home setup with Alby now.
Can’t generate invoice either
Took a while but finally got around to setting up self custody 2-of-3 multisig inheritance for my family’s BTC with Bitkey
Same lol, gonna setup and try switch now, btw still tryna zap you but can’t from rizful wallet
