We cannot just reopen the shipyards, coal mines and mass car factories. We cannot create more university towns and public sector back offices. That was the playbook of the 20th century. The solutions for the 21st century run much deeper than that. We must ask ourselves the hard questions.

Change the source of information entering your life. Honestly, it just changes everything. You don't even have to quit social media. In fact, I've started using Twitter so much more since I started Staying Curious. You just have to treat these rich wells of content with respect. When I pick up my phone now, I'm basically learning by default. A little bit more. Every single day. That is how I built websites from scratch with zero formal education. It is what gave me courage to write these words.

Our money is distorted, and thus our environment is distorted. The construction industry is highly motivated by margins, and I totally get that, especially in this era of currency debasement. But it drives the high time preference I frequently see in design decisions. It is a tragedy, and I do firmly believe that Bitcoin can realign our motivations to create beautiful, healthy spaces.

You want the spaces you inhabit to recharge you. Not to provide a low hum of anxiety. By releasing your attention from minor items, you can refocus on those activities that you really enjoy. For me, that is time with my gang, my websites, my writing and my guitars.

More importantly, and perhaps my real point here, I commit myself to betterment every bloody day. It can come in all shapes and sizes; writing, organising, chilling with my favourite person and my favourite dog, reflecting. Pushing the needle is perhaps the reason for being. Am I learning? Am I discovering? Do I satisfy my curiosity?
The search for consciousness—what it is and where it comes from—challenges us to rethink what it means to be human. As science begins to validate what tradition has long taught, a new perspective emerges: we are more than physical beings. Consciousness is the bridge between the material and the divine, shaping our experiences and connecting us to the greater whole. Just as Bitcoin revealed a new way to think about trust, exploring consciousness may reveal a new way to think about existence. Whether we call it God, quantum mechanics, or the soul, the message is the same: we are all part of a vast, interconnected system, and through understanding it, we might better understand ourselves.
For a few weeks now I've been trying to establish a clear worldview on the wider Crypto landscape. Y'see, I'm fairly settled on the epic store-of-value proposition that is Bitcoin. I've dived into the gory details, gained some practical skills, and completely overindulged in the 24/7 debates sparked in Twitterland. And just like a BTC-Big Mac in El Salvador, it all feels rather warm, gooey.....and potentially fatal. So to address this intellectual comfort, I must stress-test my understanding of Bitcoin. I must fuel my curiosity by casting a wider net.
At this point, it is worth wondering what all this research represents. We seemingly have an answer crying out for a question. To that end, there are a few good candidates. Is Bitcoin a response to monetary distortion? Government largesse, perhaps? Is Bitcoin a dry, technical update for the internet? I would contend that it does all those things. And excellently so. But there is also a more profound, universal quandary to address.
