My 12 Conceptual Take-aways from the @michael_saylor & @Breedlove22 8 Saylor Series Videos on Bitcoin:

(My conceptual interpretations of ways to view the world and Bitcoin)

I hope you enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2jAZ0x9H0bRvoNt1xNJWYa9_8_an03h0

1) War: You might not be interested in war, but it is interested in you. No fair fights. You are attacked from the rear while you sleep. Bitcoin is in a war.

2) Fire: Turn matter into energy. Bitcoin is fire in cyberspace. Fire for seeing, communications, manufacturing, clearing land, catching food. Bitcoiners are the “keepers of the flame” and won’t let it’s fire go out.

3) Energy = money is a high form of energy. Humans channel energy and move energy across space and time. Batteries lose energy like fiat/gold lose through inflation. Bitcoin is a battery that does not leak energy.

4) Engineering: The beaver is nature’s engineer – make dam and flood – changing the terrain, creates life in pond. Beavers fix the dam in a storm. Use the terrain to your advantage.

5) Empires: The Roman republic had a cycle of politicking, and campaigning and celebrating wins through dynamic changing of who was up next. Romans stole good ideas from others and used standardized parts. Bitcoin will keep adding new “influencers and ideas”.

6) Antifragility: Dollars and gold leak value towards leak-proof Bitcoin. Romans kept competition at fore-front. When they tried to insulate stressors, they got weak. Stress and pain is information to use to become stronger.

7) Defense: Defensive attributes overtake offensive. Be indestructible – BTC is looking for the fight because it becomes stronger. Wall of China was fragile defense. A strong citadel can be broken by a donkey holding gold walking the path to bribe the gatekeeper.

8) Cleanliness: Canning stabilizes food energy in clean environment. Bitcoin is a hyper-sanitized ledger and the world’s best cryptographic brand. Governments try to brand gold and fiat. Gold has had no upgrades.

9) Friction: A little friction makes for growth. Zero transaction fees are not necessarily smart and Bitcoin's fees are set at market value to support the network. The high seas protect and were frictionless for moving energy. Bitcoin is on the digital high seas.

10) Swarm: Hard to go about your business if you are being rolled over by a tank. Innovation needs to insulate against the attack. Swarm is Bitcoin’s offense. Romans did not cower behind gate. Does not sleep, always works, weak parts of swarm are squeezed out.

11) Inverted Common Denominators = 1 weakness in Great Wall of China broke it for everyone. 1 advantage in Bitcoin and the benefit is felt by all. Bitcoin attracts the highest common denominator – not the lowest.

12) Enduring Time Horizons: How can your money realize your wishes after you are gone? People and the money network combine the power of money to perform “magic” in the future. Freedom, family, religion, ideology – what will people lie down for truth? Fight to stop the dark ages.

Tips for going through the series: take notes, create your own summary, listen on 2x-3x speed to save time, teach others what you learn to internalize it. This can be done in about 8-10 hours of focused learning.

Keep becoming a faster, harder, stronger, and smarter cyber hornet.

I am thankful to be able to add to this cyber-hornet swarm through the wisdom and power of Jesus' words of truth at the intersection of Christians and Bitcoin.
