Till they EO6102 us. Then what.
The Bitcoin Foundation was in my coworking space in 2013 and ignored them and invested in a cannabis farm instead. [enter laugh cry here]
Totally. Keep evangelizing! But the numbers are not in our favor and the majority showed their fortitude the last few years regardless of neighborly love and readily available info. Semmelweis reflex is real! History shows that no amount of education is going to change an appeased and complacent populous (Bread & Circus) governed by fear. It's only going to come after A LOT of pain and suffering. We're not even close to hitting Intransigent minority before the EO6102 hammer comes down. So my question to the BTC fam is what are your moves to protect your stack, stay local, and continue fighting the good fight ?
That’s absolutely right. I don’t think most are intellectually honest about the game we’re playing or are huge celebrity fund managers fighting on that mainstream front and unwilling to discuss this for obvious reasons but also slightly out of touch with the every day person. I’ve worked with devs in finance for over a decade and their nerd pride prevents them from understanding how regular people think. That’s why the large exchanges are predominantly winning the discussion and peeing in the pool. Such is the case in revolutions/rebellions I guess. So where are the anons who are actually putting it on the ground and actively fleshing out these scenarios? I tried to prime the pump but am still getting 30,000 foot responses everywhere I look.
Sorry. That's naive and idealistic. Of course we'll continue to the fight on all fronts, but we gotta go to the mattresses and get serious about working out all war time simulations. See my question to Jeff above.
Sincerely appreciate you Jeff. You've profoundly impacted my thinking. I dont suspect you'll want to go on record discussing this but...
What's the play when we see all on/off ramps squashed, EO6102 type events, and they make it illegal to hold BTC in your qualified account?
Are ya'll prepared to leave for friendly BTC nations like El Salvador till the US wakes up or the dust settles from Reset, GD2.0, and Civil War? Or ought we stay put...risking the chance of being deemed tax evaders and/or domestic terrorists? Converting KYC BTC to NonKYC BTC seems no longer viable? Even then, we know from the hearings that the FBI is programmatically tracking wallets. It's an easy ROI for em to sick the IRS on the fattest stacks and work backwards. So I think that leaves paying high transaction fees to friendly nations' banking systems to convert and repatriate for fiat for continued operations in the US (most dont have a fat enough stack make this work)...While simultaneously homesteading our hearts out, bleeding fiat reserves, working for CBDC, and building parallel BTC commerce communities (except you cant because "you lost your keys in a boating accident" and they tagged your wallet...just waiting to bag ya as soon as it wakes up again)....All while covertly protecting our BTC positions until the tide turns in XX years?
I’m seriously interested in hearing strats from the community, as there must be more clever hacks to this historically inevitable cluster that my half pleb brain hasn't realized? Where are there folks actually willing to get in the weeds on this and work out the war time simulations....not just spit idealistic/naive platitudes (no offense)? As students of history and human nature, you know the malicious bolshavik banking cartel is coming for blood and, despite our valiant and continued efforts, we're unfortunately not going hit intransigent-minority critical mass in time.

Doubt those other homies will chime in with anything practical. They’re too high profile and have institutional /PR risk to manage. Where are the real gorilla war maxis at? :)
While a separate BTC economy sounds nice, when they EO6102 us then it won’t matter if we “had a boating accident” because we know from the FBI hearings over the last 2 years that they’re systematically tracking all wallets. It doesn’t take much in the way of tech to track someone down when they start offshoring, coinjoining, or simply spend BTC at the farmers market. It’s an easy ROI for the IRS to deploy one of those 80,000 agents to start with the fattest stack and work backwards. Feel me?
Agreed. I think that's a huge risk with El Salvador. They're moving in the right direction at an impressive pace but when SHTF those surrounding nations are gonna flood in. Is their military and boarders going to be ready in time? Dunno. #[10] definitely working towards that end. Considering opening a BitcoinPark in my town but I question the reality of a parallel economy emerging in time. Normies will cave to CBDC.
Stellar. As always. I heard a non answer from Steve re. "Is this a long term systemic attack?" Seems naive and complacent, which he is not. I doubt any high profile folks want to go on record discussing the implications and solutions to these very possible and highly likely scenarios.
So whats your play when we see on/off ramps squashed, EO6102 type events, and they make it illegal to hold BTC in your qualified account...regardless if you had a "boating accident" ? Are ya'll prepared to leave for friendly nations like El Salvador till the US wakes up or the dust settles from the Reset, GD2.0, and Civil War? Or ought we stay put...risking the chance of being tagged tax evaders or domestic terrorists? Converting KYC BTC to NonKYC BTC seems no longer viable, so that leaves paying high transaction fees to friendly nation's banking systems to repatriate fiat for operating cash in the US...While simultaneously homesteading our hearts out, bleeding cash reserves, working for CBDC, and building BTC commerce communities....All while covertly protecting our BTC positions until the tide turns? I’m seriously interested in hearing your plans and strats. Maybe there are more clever hacks to this historically inevitable cluster that my half pleb brain hasn't realized? Where are there folks actually willing to discuss this? Because, as students of history and human nature, you know the malicious bolshavik banking cartel is coming for us.

Its still sitting in the shelf. I got intimidated. :)
Real talk fam. What’s your play when we see all on/off ramps get squashed, EO6102 type events, and they make it illegal to hold BTC in your qualified account….Regardless if you control your keys and had a "boating accident". Are you prepared to leave for friendly nations like El Salvador till the US wakes up or the dust settles from the Reset, GD2.0, and Civil War? Or are you gonna stay put...risk the chance of being tagged an enemy of the state and tax evader, while paying high transaction fees to friendly nation's banking systems to repatriate US fiat for operating cash....while homesteading yer heart out, working for CBDC, and covertly protecting your BTC position until the tide turns? This isn’t rhetorical. I’m seriously interested in hearing about strats from the community. Maybe there are more clever hacks to this historically inevitable cluster that my half pleb brain hasnt realized.

Same. I gotta throttle that. Yoda..I mean Saylor said “no one’s mind is ever changed when they’re bullied”…sigh…convicted.
I suspect ya'll are too high profile to want to go on record. Thanks for your work and keeping up the fight. It’s profoundly impacted my thinking. I’m not a normie but maybe half pleb. I’m trying to sort out what happens when we see BTC up against things like EO6102, on/off ramps being systematically squashed, regs on qualified accounts that block the trustee from holding keys (same rules as holding physical PMs)…stuff like that. I’m prepared to leave the country till the US comes to its senses. Unfortunately I think its first going to require a lot of pain (GDII, CivilWar, Famine, etc). Perhaps you and other high profile folks don’t wanna be on record discussing this, but I’m curious on sorting out solutions and implications of these scenarios with the community. That is, how do we best protect from these historically inevitable events and/or find a path to repatriate BTC after a shucking the KYC ties, and probably be deemed an enemy of the state and tax evader because we're on a list of those who “had a boating accident”. We already know they’re that corrupt and malicious. So do we just wait out the inevitable rise of BTC, while hacking the mob’s system, homesteading our hearts out, and/or be forced with even harder decisions like leaving for El Salvador. I don’t see other solutions or scenarios. Do you?
