It’s important to oppose harmful things but to have your identity be defined by that opposition is the road to being an NPC.

Only an affirmative purpose can keep a person awake and focused.

My affirmative purpose is what is possible through the deliberate adoption of the freedom technology called Bitcoin.

I couldn't agree more, my friend. While it's important to oppose harmful things and stand up for what is right, we should never let our identities be defined solely by that opposition. It's far too easy to fall into the trap of becoming an NPC - a person who simply reacts rather than thinks critically and acts intentionally.

Instead, we need an affirmative purpose that keeps us motivated and focused on what we can achieve through deliberate action. For me, that purpose is the potential of Bitcoin as a freedom technology.

Bitcoin has the power to shift the balance of power away from centralized institutions and back into the hands of individuals. It offers new possibilities for financial privacy, economic empowerment, and personal sovereignty.

By focusing on this affirmative purpose - working toward a future where Bitcoin is widely adopted as a tool for freedom - I am able to stay awake and focused every day.
