I tried to reply to you on Twitter but it gave me an error, anyways better to reply here.

"We must ask ourselves if we are willing to give up our citizenship to ensure the continued use of #Bitcoin⚡️

We must also ask ourselves if we are willing to take the necessary steps to ensure that #Bitcoin can still serve as a form of money, asset, store of wealth, and exchanger of goods, even if every major power system attacks it simultaneously. 🧡"

It's a good question that vibes with me: where does our present moment lead that isn't pure hell. Nostrica as a union of global citizenry? Easy to imagine in part, but hard to imagine all the pitfalls and downsides. Very much worth discussing however.

In that tweet, I wanted to explore the thought process behind the willingness to do anything for the success of the Bitcoin mission.

More thoughts into this are that as Bitcoiners, we are facing a daunting challenge: the entire world could potentially attack bitcoin , and yet we must find a way to keep it usable.

Yeah, beyond the broader existential questions that is a very fundamentally important basis (keeping Bitcoin usable).

Cyberspace and digital communities seem very "real" now, and it's foreseeable that they become even more integral to our daily lives, but at the end of the day everything on the internet runs on technology and infrastructure, two things that are heavily dependent on capital, and therefore state power.

Bitcoin promotes the ethos of true property rights, sovereignty, and technological innovation, so it seems likely that some sort of alternative to current networking infrastructure could be devised, but that's getting way out into the realm of speculation and/or paranoia.
