I've been kinda tracking my progression into bitcoin and the progression of others. This is what I have seen so far. What do you think?
Clueless/Opposed
First Purchase
Gambling Addiction
Orange Pilled
Heavy Research
Evangelical Bitcoiner
Researching Fiat
Angry
Find a Positive Outlet
Monkish Existence
Pretty much sums it up
Obviously different for everyone depending on their prerequisite knowledge
Same here, mild bit of shitcoinery during the gambling stage. Owned 1 LTC 😂
LTC, the least of many evils
I went through a total loss / denial stage after the gambling part and giving bitcoin the stink eye until giving in and doing the necessary work
I have seen that happen more than once. Glad you stuck with it man
💜🔥💜
think i've skipped some steps here, and kind of accepted the fact that to use and believe in something, you don't have to fully know every little thing about it
I struggled with this in the early heavy research phase.
had to do a little self-reflection to understand this 🧡
Man I wish I could do that. I'm still on that don't trust verify mentality.
I'm about to learn Python so I can get learn to program bitcoin with Jimmy Song's book.
The paranoia has it's benefits I guess.
oh it absolutely does
i just realise that i only have a limited amount of time on earth, and instead of working constantly on my weaknesses, i'd rather focus on my strengths, especially during my younger years
Wise words my man. So far researching bitcoin has been a strength for me, but I'm already starting to pivot towards more fulfilling topics. The current obsession is reading spiritual works from different perspectives.
Pretty close, researching fiat & angry is a bit higher on the list for me. Permaculture/homesteading gave me the monkish existence 1st
I feel like the angry phase comes a bit earlier.
They may be in the wrong order for some. For me the anger phase followed reading The Creature from Jekyll Island
Seems like a pretty reasonable progression. Unfortunately I think I am between angry and find a positive outlet. Vacillating between the two depending on the time.
I guess that means monkish existence is next. Soon™️.
You'll get there
