Do you know that using strike pay and custodial wallets isn't living in a bitcoin standard doesn't you? 👀
Discussion
I dont hold any fiat. How much more bitcoin standard do you want?
I can't pull over any further....
😝
Neither you hold the "bitcoin" you have in Strike.
I understand what you say, but using Strike is the same of using a bank, and to live in a bitcoin standard is to live without the necessity of any financial institution to do your transactions, so paying things with Strike pay is the same as paying it with credit in a average bank.
At the advisory level, I honestly have none, as Bitcoin has been hijacked in such a way that the system have allowed to created mini Bitcoin-only banks, and people use the services thinking they are living in a Bitcoin standard, when in reality they are using the same kind of service that Bitcoin was created to combat.
When traditional banks buy Bitcoin ETFs and give people the option to denominate what they have in BTC at the bank and use credit cards directly linked to that BTC, are they really living in a Bitcoin standard?
Anyway, what a clown world Bitcoin has become...
It's because of things like this that I use Monero.
How do you live on a Monero standard? Short of using cakepay/bitrefill. How are you paying your mortgage/ rent?
I don't said i live on a Monero standard, we are not yet ready to live neither in a world of bitcoin standard or monero standard, for that we need to push to have more businesses accept the coins directly and have a proper circular economy.
My standard is cash for what i can't buy with monero and everything i can buy with monero i use it.
But yeah buying gift cards for some services is the only option, the thing that i clearly think is nonsense and i refuse to use is banking services that are wolves at a sheeps skin.
They are building the systems that will makes us trapped, and more vulnerable to state agents, system and censorship that all of us oppose.
You are seeing now coinbase for exemple applying a social credit to Bitcoin L1, sooner or later you will see fractional reserve banking with Bitcoin and ecash is the most probable tool they will use for sure for that.
They are testing it in Central banks (words from an interview of calle).
PS: Take time to read Bitcoin Hijacked of Roger Ver if you want to see the other side, don't just eat Bitcoin propaganda.
(The system is really good at selling ideas that go against the public interest like is shinny gold, and many of influencers even here are on some big names payroll)
You know you’re not the king who gets to make the rules of bitcoin living and declare others unworthy don’t you?
If the whitepaper says that bitcoin is for P2P transactions without the need of a financial institution to make it, living in a bitcoin standard is only buying products directly in bitcoin without the need of the third party to make my transactions. If you need it you are not in a bitcoin standard, but in the same old financial system that the only difference that has is that instead the number of what you see in the bank being $/€ is btc 👀
PS: I don't make the rules.
It’s almost like you never read the many posts of Satoshi, Hal, and the others of how it all plays out. Nowhere in the white paper is it discussed what the final definition of “I’m living on a Bitcoin standard”means. Someone wants to celebrate getting rid of their traditional bank account, hold bitcoin instead of dollars, and you want to pop in their note and poop on their celebration by letting them know they just might not be pure enough for you to celebrate with them. Have whatever reply guy response you want, I’m celebrating with them.
It clearly says that the coin is made to people not use financial institutions to make payments P2P.
Its because of reading the emails and posts of satoshi that i clearly know that bitcoin was hijacked.
Where is the block size increase to support scaling that satoshi propose?
Where is the privacy protocols implemented that satoshi talked?
Im not here to poop the celebration of one getting rid of FIAT, im here to remember what is the pourpose of the coin, and to at least try to open the eyes of good people that falled in propaganda from guys that are working for the system, and they are doing it very well as i see.
Go read again satoshi pappers, maybe you didn't understand what you read, or didnt read at all.
Big blocker, nuff said. Good luck with your fork.
It's not me the one that falled for propaganda..
I'm noy on any fork, i use something genuine..
Go read what actually satoshi have on his mind and then comeback without bullshit saylor or saifedean told you to repeat..
