It's folks like Andreas Antonopolous and nostr:npub1trr5r2nrpsk6xkjk5a7p6pfcryyt6yzsflwjmz6r7uj7lfkjxxtq78hdpu who got me into Bitcoin and keep me in Bitcoin. The space is so noisy with grifters, influencers, doomsdayers, ngu, btfd, moon. But there are also a lot of people humbly walking the path of truth and genuinely helping others along the way. Here's to humanitarians, cypherpunks, privacy advocates, artists, philosophers, dreamers, pragmatists, disruptors, innovators, activists, free speech advocates, node operators, community builders, teachers, and anons.

Agreed. Though I’d put the NGU in a different category. The number going up is the primary evidence of adoption. Adoption is what we’re praying for. Furthermore, increasing personal financial strength brings us opportunities to help others more.

I agree. The energy behind NGU is what really matters to me. Seeing someone all hyped up about the price just makes me feel bad for them. I ran a Bitcoin meetup through a couple bull/bear cycles. Actually started it because I didn't know how to handle those feelings in my first bull run. Lucky for me, this one guy showed up to snap me out of it. Everyone else was "to the moon" though. Their vibe made me feel sick. And man, did they sure did have it rough when the bears came around.

NGU without adoption is hollow.

NGU with adoption is the tide that raises all boats.

It’s an incredible test of character riding the bull and bear. Always wondering whether to get more or give more or what. No easy answers, just a journey.
