No matter how much I study and often hear the same thing over and over; I’m always amazed at how each time I glean something new or otherwise connect a dot I previously hadn’t.
I think why it took me so long to grasp “Bitcoin is a protocol” vs “Bitcoin is better money” is because of the proliferation of:
A. Pricing BTC in fiat, and
B. The encouragement to spend BTC as though it is money.
Even here on NOSTR I’ve said it a hundred times “if it’s worth a Like, Comment, ReNote, or QuoteNote; it’s worth a #zap “
Problem is that is just one layer…of the protocol that is Bitcoin!
I was mentally stopping there instead of recognizing Bitcoin is to be built upon 🤯
Man when you connect that dot it REALLY makes fiat land look like dystopia and “crypto” like cronyism!
Thanks for putting this work out there nostr:nprofile1qqsx5dvc2g3cmjgz4mgelwlk5p2ln2ljrsw23y2ar38z0agd7tefpkgpzemhxue69uhk7unpdenk2urfd3kx2u3wdaexwqg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvs3m9lhx and nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe
