I try to shake my normal friends into purchasing bitcoin every chance I get.

I buy them Jade Greens for their birthday.

I send them 100 dollars worth of bitcoin on their bithday.

I tap their phones with my nfc card that sends them to my nostrbirthday to watch Zap. Stream.

I ask them all the questions I wish someone had asked me.

When I started my bitcoin journey, I had given up on the world. I had no car, no phone, and definitely no bank account.

I walked to work, rode my bike to work, or hitched a ride. And all the money that didn't go to rent or food went to Bitcoin.

I went from borderline homeless to retirement in 5 years. It was all or nothing. And I got it all!

If I can do it they can to. And they don't have to go as hard as I did to be very comfortable 5 to 10 years from now.

You’re an inspiration!

This is 🔥

Cheers to that. 🍻

bitcoin is a fantastic unifier of people just as sound money always was

very similar story here.

went from sleeping on a park bench to owning my own brand new fully detached brick house in the most overpriced housing market in the world, Canada.

BTC is life changing.

Honestly I believe you either get it or you don’t. I recognized the asymmetrical upside of this asset the second I saw it. Opened 3 exchange accounts. Ordered signing devices and plates, and did a swan dive down the rabbit hole. It’s the first time in 30+ years of working relatively decent paying jobs and building other people’s fortunes that I have ever been incentivized to save. What’s the yield on a 0.1% savings account when real annual inflation is at 12-16%? The Fed can take their fake-ass CPI and employment numbers and jam them sideways.

Consider the good intentions of promoting Bitcoin Adoption.

Consider WHO or WHY you preach Bitcoin.

A psychedelic approach to introducing newcomers (or not)...

Man, I wish I could retire. Then I could work on Nostr all day.

I was speaking to my best friend yesterday. I have been trying to orange-pill him for almost 4 years. Yesterday he started to tell me that inflation is important for a growing economy. Clearly, he has not read any of the books I have sent him or listened to anything i recommended. It’s true that people buy #bitcoin at the price they deserve.

Like you, I’ve spent the past 4 years working extra and stacking as much bitcoin as i could. Meanwhile, my friend has managed to miss out on bitcoin while still going on at least 2 family vacations a month. What a waste.
