What I'm Focused on Now
Updated January 13, 2023
Doing
- Expanding access to the network and asset by serving as an advisor to startups building on Bitcoin and Lightning, including Amboss Technologies, Orange Pill App, and Synota
- Investing more time and energy in the growing Nashville Bitcoin community as part of Bitcoin Park
- Preparing my family for an uncertain year ahead as the US runs headlong into recession
Learning
- Multiple facets of Bitcoin mining, including hardware design, power grids and markets, and economics
- The emerging nostr protocol and application ecosystem as an alternative to centralized social media and messaging
- The history of monetary policy and central banking
Reading
I keep a handful of books on the go—a few non-fiction and a sci-fi selection for nighttime reading, when my infant toddler permits.
Listening
My podcast selection is Bitcoin-heavy, mixed with macro economic trends and privacy, and delivered via the Lightning-powered Fountain app. And always new music.
