It’s interesting I was just in DMs with a bitcoiner from 2011 who’s now considering selling all his btc.

He thinks Bitcoin is no longer censorship resistant from the state.

Sorry for fud but it’s always interesting to hear a perspective that challenges the core idea of bitcoin especially from an og bitcoiner.

I think people can become a little too radicalised in many aspects of Bitcoin, and anything is possible. We all want it to succeed, but the idea that it cannot fail is dangerous to those who don't believe it's possible.

I don’t disagree. But if btc gets captured by the state, then what? Lol 😂

But what is captured by the state? Is it a node, an acsic minor or a wallet?

That’s why I said “if”.

Not saying btc will. I think it’s unlikely but guy I spoke to seemed to think so.

Then we tried our best, right?

It would be game over for that dream. I suspect a lot of people when give up hope entirely. It's the double-edged sword of who actually created Bitcoin, and I haven't yet ruled the possibility out, that's why I stack AND trade it.

Yeh I will just have to tell my family I wasted 4 years of my life lol 😂

I wouldn't call an honest pursuit a waste, especially if that thing doesn't work out due to factors we don't control.

It would be a hell of a way to demoralise us though. 😅
