I’m selling you fire insurance on the burning house.

I have the fire insurance, I'm good.

My problem is that I don't want the house to burn down, but that this point it is probably necessary. Both for cyclical reasons (we need a sacrifice) and for practical reasons (the average person is completely lost).

I need to decide between relaxing and enjoying the show or going on nostr:nprofile1qqstm84k2lp9knmvmf5gw88zvfvar7duvfpqfplryfystdn55ug2gksprfmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68yurvv438xtnrdaksz9thwden5te0wahhgtnwdaehgu3wwpshyareqyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2j8uly5 level rants and investing more social capital in this.

Who cares really. Btc is the ultimate insurance

I care. Bitcoin is the ultimate insurance but Bitcoin is also just an idea. It's people who actually act upon it and change the world.

Bitcoin will win because it's an idea that capitalizes off of our own greedy, self-interested nature, but I'm starting to think that 90% of people are so conditioned by statism that they can't even tell what's in their own best interest.

I don’t care at all around the 90%. Not one tiny bit.

Focus on the 1% that are making the changes already. The other 9% will catch up but the 90% can all go to hell.

The 90% is hopeless anyways

The 90% will drag us all to hell if we let them.

I'm not talking about them because I'm worried about them, I'm talking about them because I'm worried about what damage they can do to us.

If you take things on face value, we live under rule of the majority. The minds of the majority are easily captured which makes this less true in practice, but we aren't the ones controlling minds yet either.

If Bitcoin goes to 10M in the next decade, there will be some parallels between us and another group which was highly disliked throughout history. Just saying.
