BE RUTHLESS TO THE THINGS THAT DON’T MATTER

"How many have laid waste to your life when you weren’t aware of what you were losing, how much was wasted in pointless grief, foolish joy, greedy desire, and social amusements—how little of your own was left to you. You will realize you are dying before your time!”

—SENECA, ON THE BREVITY OF LIFE, 3.3b

Bitcoin-Centered Interpretation:

A Fiat Critique on Wasted Time

The fiat system is designed to waste your life. It manufactures an endless stream of pointless grief (market crashes), foolish joy (speculative bubbles), and greedy desire (leveraged trading, altcoin casinos). These are not features; they are bugs in your soul. Every moment spent on these social amusements is a moment stolen from your true purpose. Learn the power of saying "No." No to the noise. No to the distractions. No to the manufactured desires that keep you tethered to a dying system. Be ruthless in protecting your time and attention, for they are the only resources you truly own.
