If Trump wins, you’re going to want to own Bitcoin. If Harris wins, you’re going to want to own Bitcoin.

“The world is not complex. It is the task of trying to figure it out with words or numbers which is complex; it is like trying to keep count of all the leaves in a constantly changing forest, or measuring the Atlantic with a hypodermic needle.”

“This has nothing to do with better or worse, progress or regress. These are judgments, and it is well said, ‘Judge not, that you be not judged; for with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged, and with what measure you measure, you shall be measured.’ And if you say, ‘But that is itself a judgment!’ you are still judging. Is it better not to judge? No, it is simply living and dying, day and night, coming and going, a state of affairs in which there is neither the good by itself nor the bad by itself.”

Based on Google Search trends, normie world briefly woke up to Bitcoin when the ETF was approved in March 2024, and then went back to sleep again until…

When they wake up next, when we hit 80k? 100k? Next nation state adoption? Adoption by a major tech co like Apple/MSFT? Time will tell. nostr:note1jz7fqjh8lpf5qmfvgage4h28h8y4x7lfjftswpv0mvcqmnp00g8qlrm7hs

“Less and less has the ‘wisdom of the East’ anything to do with modern Asia, with the geographical and political boundaries of the world which such terms as East and West, Asia, Europe, and America, now represent. More and more ‘the East’ as a source of wisdom stands for something not geographical but inward, for a perennial philosophy which, in varying forms, has been the possession of traditional, nonhistorical cultures in all parts of the world. For the spiritual contrast of East and West is really a contrast between two styles of culture, two radically different categories of social institutions, which never really corresponded to the contrast of Europe and Asia as geographical divisions.”

Price is pretty much at an all-time high, yet Google search volume for #Bitcoin is about the same as at $16K.

The true bull market hasn’t started.

“Indeed, the flow patterns of water are a basic model for the conduct of life, for which reason Lao-tzu repeatedly uses water as a symbol of the Tao—which ‘loves and nourishes all things, but does not lord it over them,’ and which ‘flows always to that lowest level which men abhor.’”
