TLDR: Trump has no freaking clue of what Bitcoin is
"Unless it is illegal, it will not be taken away”.
lol the ability to say even things that are considered illegitimate by some crazy bureaucrat is the whole point of freedom of speech 😂😂😂
Nostr is the way.
Hawk Tuah girl supports the liberation of Ross Ulbricht.
I hope this brings the message to the masses.
But we definetly live in a simulation.
While shitcoiners put on cringe fair in Nashville, focus on the things you love.
Enjoy life.
If that were the case I would understand it, but I don't think it is. I see many bitcoiners posting memes and posts in support of Trump and the whole MAGA movement. Conservatives hiding until a few weeks ago who are now coming out because they feel legitimised by the yellow toupee. I personally don't like it because I don't think bitcoin's values align with those of a specific party.
I only partially agree. Because while it is true that on the one hand (Trump supporters) Bitcoin can be legitimized, on the other hand (supporters of his opponents) Bitcoin may be even more de-legitimized. As is already happening in El Salvador: no one knows what Bitcoin actually is, but Bitcoin has become the symbol of Bukele's party: those who support Bukele support Bitcoin, those who hate Bukele hate Bitcoin.
And to me this is terrible: Bitcoin has nothing to do with a specific political party.
GM. If you are excited about Trump's participation in a conference, something went wrong with your bitcoin learning curve.
I think they tried to invite her in Nashville but she refused to speak.
Incredible research by nostr:npub1n3sjlzmhpu8rl56umtptc4lua6zkretq2p82yhytnmlcuq639vlqd0te5l proving a very interesting fact.
Activism in #Bitcoin is often influenced by very clear values, but ownership is not.
Bitcoin ownership is extremely heterogeneous and covers moderates, conservatives, liberals as well as different religions, races, social classes, economic classes, educational degrees, etc.

Bitcoin Magazine stands to #Bitcoin as the mainstream media stands to mainstream information.
Both represent reality in a distorted way and following logics of political interest far from the only interest that should matter: that of readers.
Until a few months ago, Bitcoin Magazine's line was clear: the “Bitcoin candidate” - literally defined as such - was Robert Kennedy Jr.
But then it was realized that Kennedy was going nowhere in the election. Especially when he withdrew from the Democratic primary to run as an independent presidential candidate next November.
Btc Inc. lobbying was then redirected to the favored candidate for eventual victory: Donald Trump. One who wrote in 2019, “I am not a fan of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, which are not money and whose value is highly volatile and based on nothing.” Today he makes statements such as “Bitcoin mining could be our last line of defense against a CBDC.”
The result? Today in the United States the image of Bitcoin is associated with The Donald.
There is only one problem. Bitcoin is not compatible with Harris or Trump's values. Bitcoin is not compatible with the values of a political party. Bitcoin is not compatible with the values of representative democracy.
Bitcoin is an expression of the prevalence of the values of private property and individual freedom over all others. The rest is derived from pure logic. But this is too complex for the legacy media: which is why mass information is a cancer to be eradicated.
Everyone recognises the inefficiency and damage caused by monopolies.
Why do so many demand that fundamental sectors such as education, health and security be run as monopolies?
nostr:npub1rd0wwn037yltsh256d4urxjpsr6ye6dva6azaggsl848nwc64ehq60r3ys I started to follow your podcast on Castro app. Does it start from number 54, doesn't it? I started to hear #silkroad episode. Really interesting and controversial argument.
Sì, la puntata numero 54 è la prima con il podcast :)
The postman arrived to deliver an envelope with a fine. I asked him if he had a Money Service Business licence and he gave me a strange look.
Clearly he’s not up to date. I should have refused the envelope because it did not comply with the new DOJ guidelines.
