Western governments in a nutshell:
Germany sold their #BTC at 53k and missed out on 1.7billion in profit (so far)
There will be no investigation.
No accountability.
Nobody loses their job.
We don’t even know who decided to do this.
Or why?
Just “oh well” if they even talk about it at all.
Onto the next decision that hurts the German people.
They don't care.. they prefer to have € because with their friends at the ECB they can print more and change the monetary policies as they wish.
You can't do that with bitcoin
History doesn't repeat, but it rhymes:
15th Century: Portuguese traders arrived in West Africa, exchanging glass beads for gold, sparking a complex relationship of trade, cultural exchange, and exploitation.
21st Century: Cypherpunks, early adopters of Bitcoin, engaged with Western Europe, exchanging digital currency for traditional fiat, disrupting conventional systems and challenging the status quo.
WTF - the text sounds not as I thought. AI somehow understood my prompt slightly wrong 🤣
Here is the improved version:
* 15th Century: Portuguese traded worthless glass beads for gold in West Africa.
* 21st Century: Cypherpunks traded worthless fiat currency for Bitcoin in Western Europe.
Anyway, local government is so stupid is this context and it bothers me as well that this is not even discussed.
