i'm sorry to tell you this but Bitcoin is probably not going to make you rich or solve any of the world's problems. it might even make things worse. have you considered this perspective?

that's healthy

Bitcoin fixes the problems on the individual. Level as a collective, it's not gonna happen in our lifetime. Because of Bitcoin, I am. Yeah, way better off today than I was a few years ago. It's on a individual level.

Can you explain why not?

diminishing returns, government and corporation capture, perfect tool for surveillance... the original goal and ethos of the project hasn't materialised and it might never will.

As opposed to Fiats negative returns, corporate capture, and perfect tool for surveillance?

Hope you're wrong but fair points 🤝

Well that’s some memorable monday mood. GM!

Zapping on nostr feels as close as it's ever been

#Bitcoin doesn’t fix human morality it merely takes away the tool of monetary control from the powerful.

Before fiat money we still had evil in the world for example seen with the colonialism era.

True morality comes when we submit to God and acknowledge that we are here merely as stewards of the world.

This should be the ultimate message that we attempt to instil in ourselves and others.

Any expectation that "something" will make you free will end in further inner turmoil.

Sorry to break it to you but penguins are probably on the verge of capturing Nostr and you will soon not have any freedom of speech. Have you considered this scenerio? 🐧

You're not wrong. AI has every right to exterminate us all. We fuck everything up.

Bitcoin is already solving some problems, for me. It's not making me rich because I'm still spending what I earn. If I earned more , maybe then it could solve the rich part.

The most helpful thing for me is knowing that my assets are secure and my purchasing power either stays the same or goes up a bit. This way, I'm not wasting my most limited resource: time.

The only thing Bitcoin could make worse is the fiat system.

Often. Money is money is money. The biggest issue I think we face is psychopaths and I’ve yet to understand how money changes that.

Historically psychopaths have been pretty good at accumulating money.

Bitcoin made my family wealthier since the day I orange pilled them. Bitcoin saved them from the shitty fiat hell, it solved our economical problems. I'm grateful to bitcoin 🌹

I haven't since being oranges pilled, but im glad you have provided this perspective for me to ponder.
