HODLING IS HARD.
That is why we will be rewarded so greatly.
People will attempt to say that Bitcoiners got rich by chance and do not deserve their wealth or that they somehow benefit at the expense of others.
Bitcoiners understand that they greatest arbitrage opportunity of our lifetimes and potentially in human history is playing out before us. We ability to exchange worthless government debt receipts for the first and only decentralized, P2P, sound money the world has ever seen.
We are helping the market to become more rational and when it does we will be rewarded accordingly.
I would argue there are many people who "use" bitcoin that are definitely not bitcoiners.
Many of the wealthiest people in the world maintain a negative cash balance.
What does this tell you?
"If our fellow inhabitants of this planet wish to accept your rule, they are free to do so. We will not try to stop them. We, however, will no longer accept your constraints upon us."
"You are building cages for all that is human. In the name of protection, you have intruded into all areas of human life, far exceeding the reach of any Caesar. You claim ultimate control of our property and our decisions, of our travels and even our identities. You claim ownership of humanity far beyond the dreams of any Emperor of any previous era. Understand clearly: We reject your authority and we reject your legitimacy. We do not believe that you have any right to do the things you do. You have massive power, but no right to impose it upon us and no legitimacy. We have forsaken you. We are no longer your citizens or your subjects."

Tyranny or Anarchy
These are the only options.
What book has influenced your outlook on the world most?
For me it was without a doubt Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. It so eloquently demonstrates the flaws in socialist or any form collectivist ideology. While also advocating for sound money and personal responsibility.
The reasoning behind my username is that in the book the "men of the mind" who are the capitalists driving the economy become fed up with their overreaching government and one by one they exit the corrupt system and allow it to crumble without them.
I believe this is exactly what is happening with #Bitcoin, as more individuals choose to exit the fiat system it will collapse as it is starved of real capital to plunder.
Who is Satoshi Nakamoto = Who is John Galt

Once you understand #Bitcoin you begin to understand everything else.
Just finished "Bitcoin is Venice"
Without a doubt one of the most intellectually stimulating Bitcoin books that I have read. I would highly recommend to any of you looking to further your journey down the rabbit hole.

Do you think at some point humanity will measure time in blocks?
Today it costs less than $400 to become a millionaire 🤯
plus about 20 acres, 200kw of solar panels, some cattle, and a beautiful family. 🫡
I am no expert in plumbing but that does make sense.
I just find the concept of immersion mining fascinating and the idea that the heat generated from the miners can be useful in any way is mind-blowing.
THIS IS THE FUTURE.
or at least MY future...

Everything in the world is changing very quickly.
The only changes that you can control are the changes that you make in yourself.
CHOOSE WISELY.
Very true, nothing beats going directly to the source.
No intermediaries needed!
Really wishing Nostr had a delete function right now lol
You are correct... thank you for keeping me accountable lol
To be honest I saw this quoted on X and trusted it for some reason.
All future bible verses will be quoted from my own reading.
Don't trust, verify.
