Dan Bilzerian tried to be a Navy Seal. He did not earn that distinction. Dan Bilzerian makes a show of playing poker. He hasn't studied the game or practiced enough to be a professional gambler. Dan Bilzerian makes a show of working out and improving his body. He doesn't have the discipline to be an athlete or a body builder. Dan Bilzerian pays a stable of models and porn stars to hang out with him. He is not profiting from this as Hugh Hefner or any other Pimp. Dan Bilzerian makes a spectacle on social media. He hasn't leveraged his minor fame to do anything meaningful.

As far as I can determine Dan Bilzerian is a poseur without the commitment to become good enough at anything to have any real accomplishments under his belt. He blows his money on hedonistic pursuits and purchases cheap fame in order to fill the void that comes from never doing anything of meaning with your life. Now what he's like behind the scenes I don't know. Plenty of rich international play boys have secretly been masked vigilantes, but I don't know Dan like that so I couldn't say. If he has some secret life then we are in no position to weigh its merits.

All of the things you admire about this man are nothing to be admired. They are the hollow trappings of hedonism. You perceive it as admirable because you are in the same pit that he is and you think that frivolous hedonism is a way to fill the void in your life where ambition and accomplishment ought to be.

I mean, if you really want to be Accelerationist about it....

You're participating in a psyop. Is it because you're very stupid, because you're being paid to, or because you want to?

I think someone is going to have to introduce some chaos into the game soon.

>Look into the (legal) explosives business
>Explosives are apparently dirt cheap as fuck, I guess the business is basically saturated by bulk producers

If you figured out exploits that let you hack the blockchain in various ways what would you do with them?

1. Do you have a problem with the monetary system as it stands right now?

2. If so what are you hoping that adoption of cryptocurrency leads to? (destruction, reform, non-state controlled alternatives etc)

3. Do you think that the above problems are so egregious as to be worth the chaos that will ensue if you topple the monetary system?

How do you make a business out of making soap?
