People who benefit from the legacy financial system don’t want bitcoin to succeed.
Unfortunately for them, Bitcoin doesn’t really give a fuck.
I’m under the impression that if the US government wanted to shut down bitcoin, they could’ve done it by now.
As time goes on, and as each new block is mined, it becomes more and more difficult for them to stop it.
BUT, they could make it very hard for people to buy it using the traditional banking system as we do now.
My action items to counteract this nonsense is:
- find ways to EARN bitcoin rather than having to buy it
- use decentralized exchanges like Bisq and Robosats to purchase non-KYC bitcoin
- pay less attention to these global/centralized entities and focus on your local community and area
- help the bitcoin community grow. Share posts, subscribe to bitcoin channels, send sats using the value for value model. The bigger this thing grows, the harder it will be for them to stop it.
The phrase “nothing can stop what’s coming” is totally accurate but it still requires us to do our part.
And as @odell says, stay humble and stack those sats baby.
