UNGOVERNABLE

In this episode I spoke with Zelko the Co-Founder of RoninDojo.

We discuss the origins of the project and what spurred him and the team on to build and continue improving the project.

Ive been running RD for the past 4 years and have been amazed at the development, with the latest release v2.4.0 users now have full control of Whirlpool CLI from the UI! As a long term user I'm very happy to see this. I talked to Zelko about how it was implemented as well as covering what a beautiful job Dojo Coder @PavelTheCoder has done on the UI.

I could bang on in the show notes all day about what an incredible job the team has done but I'm a dyslexic F%CK and you are going to listen to the show anyway. 

The main takeaway is the Ronin team build my favourite node implementation in the bitcoin space and haven’t forgotten that bitcoin is for the streets.

We will be holding a spaces in the next week for an open discussion with anybody with questions, feedback or who just wants to talk bitcoin and freedom with us. Join us on twitter at 20:00 London time. We would love to hear from you.

This episode is from a live recording I did with Samourai (Samourai wallet) Zelko (Ronin Dojo) and the community following a discussion we had on a recent podcast about the release of Sentinel, a watch only wallet created by Samourai wallet. 

We decided to do a follow up and open the discussion to listeners who had questions or feedback and it was a great success. I know from personal experience that the world of Bitcoin privacy and security can be daunting and frustrating at times. We want to help people use the best tools available to actually use bitcoin. Having these open discussions really helps dispel myths and encourage use. 

Its always good to have these conversations with people who stand for freedom and refuse to bend the knee. We will be running another podcast and open discusion again next month and we would love to hear from you.

Here’s the link to the original episode for those who missed it and show notes bellow. 

https://ungovernablemisfits.com/podcast/exploring-sentinel/

Sentinel is an open source watch only wallet that allows users to track offline, cold storage, and paper wallets without needing private keys. Users of sentinel can keep an eye on all balances and transactions as well as generating receive addresses without exposing private keys or reducing security. Your offline bitcoin wallet may eventually need to send a transaction, now you don’t have to compromise the security of your offline wallet by bringing it online, you can Use Sentinel to maintain the air gap.

Samourai gave us the history of sentinel and where its going in the future and Zelko helped me understand the interaction between RoninDojo and sentinel, why its so seamless and fast. Ive been testing it over the past week and it is blazing fast as well as incredibly simple to use. Im enjoying the layout and being able to track all balances in one place. 

As is to be expected this is bitcoin software that is built to be used without revealing your identity or information that could leave you vulnerable to attacks. Native Tor integration, PSBTs, simple Dojo pairing and generating receive addresses from all tracked wallets are just some of the many incredible features.

We are going to be running a spaces around a week after this episode goes live and would love to hear from you. If you have questions or feedback please join the conversation. I will announce the date and time in the next few days.

Ordinal theory is a methodology of describing and tracking individual sats. Inscriptions are the digital artifact that is inscribed on an individual sat. BRC-20 tokens are an ordinal shitcoin. The bot called Sophon looks for incoming Bitcoin transactions that involve ordinals and jumps in line with higher fees to take the ticker name.

Here is the site where I did much of the Ordinal research.

Ben Gunn Returns as Atlas Shrugs

Intro Quote: “The Solution to Pollution is Dilution” --Ben Gunn

Show Description

Our friend and fellow pleb, Ben Gunn returns to the show after a testing couple of years in Bitcoin and the wider world, to share what has worked for him, what hasn't, and his thoughts and plans for the future.

This is a fantastic follow-up interview to first episode we did in 2021, which if you haven't heard, you must and is here. In this episode, Max and Ben take a stroll around the park in Amsterdam, Netherlands to catch up on what he's been

up to since we last met on his woodland back in simpler times.

We kick off by reviewing life in the Fiat Mines, and how things are deteriorating in day to day work and relationships. Red tape, higher costs of getting stuff done, how the average person is affected and how it can't continue forever.

We discuss the transformational power of acknowledging negative observations and turning them into positive actions. How there are just some things that we have no ability to influence or control, and that it's okay to switch off the doom vendors and focus on what you can build in reply. Getting fit and staying focussed on what's really important.

We address the problem of when it's the right time to quit and where it's best to relocate in an increasingly uncertain world. The attractiveness of new locations such as El Salvador, and how leaving a broken system behind can fix many things, but not everything, and how it's all part of a much bigger cycle.

The growing relevance of Atlas Shrugged to the world we're seeing around us, and what we can learn from the novel in today's context. We also announce a new project – a series of future shows that will analyse the book from the perspectives of Bitcoiners and as living people in a world of zombies, and help a new reader get to the end!

We finish off talking about the pro's and con's of Bitcoin conferences and podcast business models, the pro's and con's of advertising based income vs Value for Value approach. We talk about the risk shifting behaviour of the dominant podcasts, and the impact on the listener's finances, as well as the overwhelming generosity and support of our own loyal fan base.

Key Takeaways:

The Fiat Mines are getting harder to work in. Where to focus your attention and turn a negative situation into a positive outcome. Meeting Bitcoiners in real life can be an amazing experience, but you can't trust everyone. Zombies are real and how we should be thinking about that in our real lives. Atlas Shrugged is a book written for our times, and we all should learn who John Galt is. Risk shifting behaviour in Bitcoin Podcasts and Conferences, and what to do about it.

Show Notes

Intro Music: Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes – I Hate You 

Our hatred for globalist, big pharma, big banks, the illuminati elite, a myriad of oppressive taxes, the Federal reserve, “trusting the experts”, and those just “doin muh job” drive us to Bitcoin and self-sovereignty. What's your motivation?

Statistics brought to you by Lincoin Mining. 

Lincoin is so much more that a place to point your hash. Lincoin is a pool, an ASIC management hub, and energy trading platform. 

Medi, thank you for keeping this show going. 

Global Hashrate - 30 day MA - 443 EH/s 

Hash Value - 210,000 sats per/PH/day 

Network Difficulty - 61.03 Trillion

Tx/Block Reward - 4.6 % - 1.2%.

New Miner Efficiency and cost to mine breakdown – 20 J/TH is the new 30 J/TH

5 things that grind Boty’s gears:

5. Cats.

4. Spiral Staircases.

3. People who dress up their cats.

2. People who take pictures of their food.

1.  The Global Elite who manipulate the levers of power, engineer economic crises, wage wars for profit, intentionally engineering pandemics, and manipulate the media all to usher in a  World Order, a world without borders, without freedom, without natural law. I for one say no! I will not kneel for these tyrants! I yearn to live free! Free in a world where my robot wife and robot children are able to live on a homestead and raise chickens and cows, grow beets, and build a hydro powered Bitcoin mine!

Pleb Miner in the Wild

Travis Bitckle

Listen you fuckers, you screw heads, here is a man who would not take it anymore. A man who stood up against the central bankers, the cunts, the dogs of war, the filth that is the global elite, the shit who devalue our currency, and steal the fruits of our labor. Here is someone who stood up and took Bitcoin Mining into his own hands. Here is, Travis Bitckle, Pleb Miner in the Wild.

Travis is a Pleb Miner extraordinaire, a mad scientist tinkerer and a hell of a nice guy. He has built many iterations of home mining setups. His most common build is an AC Infinity fan cooled miner, coupled to the rig via a Fruits and Associates Fan Shroud and a Njord Board from Pivotal Pleb Tech. (If you’d like to hear the story of Zack Bomsta and the Njord Board check out Zack’s Pleb Miner in the Wild interview)

Travis’ newest build is a single board, 120v build, with a custom housing, fan design, and the use of Zack Bomsta’s Loki Kit.

Travis wrote an article detailing the custom build. It can be viewed on our website.

Travis’ 120V miner build on Ungovernable Misfits.

Travis and Jon take the conversation is a few different directions, from automotive topics, specifically related to Volkswagen (VW) Diesel engines, turbocharging, and the use of vegetable oil as dual fuel. Here’s some more information on alternative fuel diesel engines from US Filter Maxx. They also discuss alternative sources of energy for Bitcoin mining like bio digesters and what the University of Wisconsin is doing in that area.

They discuss their early political leanings, ranging from anarchy/punk to more conservative ideologies, neo-conservatism, and libertarianism. 

The conversation ends with a quote from Mr. Rogers about the importance of those who have cared for and shaped us throughout our lives. Travis wanted to share a special thanks to his wife, mother of his children, washer of his underwear, and the one who has loved him into the successful person and pleb miner he is today. Thanks Travis’ wife and thank you to all our loved ones who suffer through our Bitcoin mania. We love you all.

“All of us have special ones that have loved us into being, would you just take along with me, ten seconds to think of the people who have helped you become who you are” “those who have cared about you and wanted what was best for you in life” – Fred Rogers (Mr. Rogers).
