Believing in #bitcoin is not about bitcoin.

It is abound believing in the right:

▶️ to spend your money whenever and on whatever you want,

▶️ to be able to buy the same amount of products from your saved money in 10-25 years as you can now,

▶️ to have freedom,

▶️ to spend money/exchange value borderlessly,

▶️ to have freedom of speech and freedom of getting heard.

These expectations are the basis of a thriving economy/community.

We have to be able to spend on whatever to be able to cast our votes on the products and services that are out there. This way shaping the world into the right direction.

We have to be able to save, so that we can buy/build bigger things. So that we can prepare for the future. So that we can be free, stable and independent.

We have to have freedom, because ideas are developed in a free environment. And we need ideas to progress and increase our and others living standards.

We have to be able to exchange value borderlessly and cheap, so that great ideas could get funding no matter where they come from, so they can be developed and worked on.

We have to have freedom of speech and freedom of getting heard, so that great ideas can be heard/spread no matter where it originates from.

Share if you want to spread this thought.

While I agree with you, the possibility exists that we are very much in the minority.

Some humans like us have the luxury to stop and think about such things, but most are far too distracted, and lots simply won’t care until something bad happens to them directly. There is also the possibility that we are wrong to care about such things, and that none of this matters at all or to the extent that we think it should.

I am personally coming to the conclusion though that we are just a fundamentally flawed species that peaked some time ago and now is on a very dangerous downslope as far as evolution goes.

It seems as though only the dimmest are breeding now, as anyone who can count or do basic math might be inclined to think there are too many humans already. Of course this isn’t universally true but it does seem that way to me at least. The result is the kind of human we have now, the kind that is not only maximally distracted but in fact seeks to be even more distracted at every turn.

After all, if we can’t even control our numbers, what chance to we have of solving complex higher order problems such as sound money or free speech?

I’m just glad I have access to such tools in my lifetime. I’m also fine with the rest of humanity imploding around me under the weight of their own misguided decisions and priorities. No child of mine will ever have to suffer with them.
