Why are we celebrating all these politicians embracing Bitcoin and saying non-sense like “I’ll buy 4 million coins”? 😂

The Bitcoin Conference has become a political rally, a captured conference giving voice to custodians, ETFs, politicians, shit coiners and enemies of Bitcoin.

What happened to all the people doing good things with Bitcoin circular economies? The startups and projects coming out from countries with authoritarian governments? The people using Bitcoin to fight totalitarianism? The people building the tools currently disrupting the space? The people that believe in the separation of money and state? Where are the talks about privacy, self custody, ethics, P2P, coinjoins, open source tech, Bitcoin development, surveillance state, Nostr, individual sovereignty, scaling, covenants, lightning, encryption, ecash? The people pushing the boundaries?

When did we start clapping for fucking Blackrock panels teaching us about Bitcoin? When did we start listening to what Robin Hood has to say about custody and access to everyone? When did we start clapping for the enemies of Bitcoin.

It just amazes me how different the conference compared to last year. What’s next? A Solana panel on decentralization and censorship resistance? a World Economic Forum panel on freedom? Lol

Bitcoin doesn’t need this. It’ll win regardless by its own merits. It’s just embarrassing and cringe to watch.

Ledger saying they are the cold storage standard and best in class? LMFAO

So happy I didn’t go to Nashville and stacked more sats instead. I’d more happily hit Prague or Baltic Honey Badger next year 🫡

Stay humble, and stack sats
