Better to understand now that if your connection to the emergent Bitcoin ecosystem was so fragile that it required ANY “Big Tech Bro” product or service, you were f@cked long before this happened.

My brother, what devices do you use? There's only a handful of manufacturers making these chips on your phone/ laptop, the internet runs off cloudflare, all of your apps are on Google Play, Apples App store or GitHub.

There's no hierarchy in this situation, we all rely on big tech regardless of how cypherpunk we all think we are.

Sadly true. Their is a very serious possible path leading to total distopia if we don't start to not comply pretty soon.

Maybe it's also because they feel that tech like Bitcoin will soon bankrupting them that they start to fight back.

I really think the "then they fight you" period has started for good.

So let me get this straight…..

Monopolistic nation states and BigTech are suppose to roll over and allow a new system that clearly has the potential to outcompete them flourish with their full co-operation?

Strap in. This gets much much more difficult from here.

Which, paradoxically, is exactly what we NEED to build the most durable ecosystem possible.

Much love 🥰
