Bitcoin mining makes renewable energy more profitable and fossil fuels less polluting.
Its still early to bring bitcoin v4v in the real world.
I watched a street magician perform the other day, great show.
At the end i thought he deserved a few thousand sats but sadly he does not accept bitcoin, nor open to me showing him how to spin up a quick lightning wallet.
A lot of people still don't get the value of #bitcoin
Although i did get a glimpse of how many people get the v4v idea. Around 20% of the audience gave some money and 80% left without doing so. 🤷
It will take a lot of time and I think bc we’re still very early that many pre-bitcoin humans won’t adopt. They’ll stay stuck in their ways. But even if 10% of the world gets on bitcoin standard, and it would be the most performant 10%, we will still have changed everything for the better.
Built and demonstrated there is another way. A way where PoW and truth is the foundation, instead of theft and corruption that underpins fiat.
Romans, around 500 BC, did away with debt forgiveness which allowed oligarchies to form which control society to a large degree. Without this concept oligarchs would not be such a huge force in the world as they are now and have been for 2000+ years. See Michael Hudsons work for more info. Blew my mind!
That is quite interesting actually. It makes sense that wiping out the debt would have a leveling effect and doing away with it has the opposite effect.
Can’t help but feel something massive is brewing with the amount of debt globally. It’s so out of touch with reality, can never be paid back, and is starting to distort everything exponentially.
Thankful to hold the only digital sound bearer asset on earth and in history…
If lack of debt forgiveness continues but non oligarchs (and oligarchs I guess too) have a hard money to save into ie #bitcoin then whatever people earn they can save and their savings appreciate in buying power over time then perhaps the gap is lessened to such a degree that class revolutions either aren't a thing or don't turn over whole societies anymore.
As far as I can tell this means as soon as you are able to earn a living you can save in #btc and you can't really go broke if you are half way responsible and actually save some.
As far as I can tell that's an entirely different landscape for the haves and the have nots.
Perhaps I'm preaching to the quire here on #nostr or extrapolating too much but just thinking out loud. Such an exciting possibility 🤗
Preach! It’s a beautiful concept and one I believe is playing out.
I love that bitcoin has mostly been a bottom up movement already. It’s helped people who had no options prosper and I believe it will continue to do so!
Here is to a bright orange future 🍻
