The point of #Bitcoin    is not to end banking per se; it is to end CENTRAL banking.

After that, banking monopolies will end, and free-market banking will thrive. They will provide excellent service competing for your business.

Not everyone will be their own bank and that's ok.

We are the bankers of the Bitcoin future.

We are the ones that know how to safetly custody bitcoin, for ourselves or others; make keys etc.

We are the ones that know how to fuck around with lightning, BTCPay, etc.

I am a black market banker.

(I'm the banker now, bitch)

The important thing to realise is that not everyone wants_to/needs_to have the responsibility of securing their own wealth.

It might be easy and natural for you, but not everyone is the same.

What's important is that there is a way to OPT OUT, should banks become predatory.

"Be your own bank, if you want"

Not,

"It has to be easy for everyone to specialise in their own banking, otherwise Bitcoin has failed."

No.

Doesn't mean I dont support tools for making self banking easier, or that I dont encourage it - I teach it FFS.

I just want people to RELAX about thinking everyone has to do it for Bitcoin to win.

Bitcoin winning is Central Bank annihilation, not everyone banking themselves.

Money reduces the risk of humans specialising in what they are good at, which makes humanity flourish.

We dont need bakers and lawyers and doctors and telephone sanitation workers all to be experts at bankingas well as their own specialty.

Banking does not mean you get interest. It means your money os protected from loss, better than what you can do yourself.
