If you live to the mid-2030s, you will see it.

To think otherwise is to waaaaaaaay overestimate the length of time it will take for the USD (and all other western fiat currencies) to enter their inevitable hyperinflationary spiral. 🌀💵🔥

Just my 2 cents 😉

I find this to be one of the most personally challenging paradoxes of human experience.

Yes, erecting and enforcing boundaries is very important.

However, the universe brings us people and situations that trigger us to show us where we need to let go and grow.

If we create a life circumstance that protects us from all suffering (and triggering) we would never evolve.

Your namesake’s (Siddharta’s) childhood story is exactly that.

Michael Singer’s Untethered Soul does a masterful job breaking this down as well.

nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe Howard Lutnick has proclaimed Bitcoin as only a commodity and not a currency. He will and has put people around Trump with the same desire. That means that Bitcoin can't, at least for now, severe as a medium of exchange. How can Bitcoin survive if it doesn't have the ability to sever as a global (not just zapping sats on nostr and the like) medium of exchange?

Why do you think the US (or any Individual or Nation State) will dictate what Bitcoin will or will not become globally. It’s completely the opposite of what we witness by studying its emergence over the past 16 years.

If it were as simple as you are implying, it would be a very fragile and corruptible protocol/ecosytem. Yet it’s proven, so far, to be anything but.

I increasingly sense that Bitcoin is just “us”. All 8bn of us. As one organism. Connected in a secure, energy efficient way. Free to collaborate and connect without the centralised interference and leakage of our current system.

Like mycelium. 🍄‍🟫

The fact that everyone doesn’t get this yet is ok. Bitcoin doesn’t care who “gets it” and when. It’s emerging regardless. And its global/transnational reality makes it impossible to control. Even if you/we can’t draw a complete flow chart of what it WILL look like in its completed, multilayered form/architecture. That’s the nature of something that is EMERGENT. It can’t be seen in its entirety (or finality) AS it’s emerging.

But that’s a feature of nature. Not a bug. It means, exactly what you fear in your question above ☝️ is not the risk you fear it is.

I have found that to really grasp this, I have to contemplate it. As in the metaphysical sense of the word. 🪬

Toggling between my rational and creative sides of the brain. Only “thinking” about it doesn’t quite get me there. Bitcoin is Sacred Geometry, in a way.

This is the magic of our growing community, in my opinion. Coming together over this mind blowing, emergent protocol is LITERALLY shifting our perceptive genetics. 🧬

Anyway….rest easy my friend. I don’t think the state is an immutabe threat to ANY layer of Bitcoin. Conversely, it MAY be just what it needs to continue to shape and strengthen its already inherent anti-fragile development.

Much love 🙏🏻💓

(Sorry for the long rant 😉)

Maybe not for you.

But it CAN be (A distraction) For many/most who think that our “external” tech will save humanity.

Not realising that without a focus on our “internal” tech first, we will suffer the same systems issues regardless.

(Similarly, without Bitcoin to reorganise the value and info exchange between 8bn humans we will never escape the suppression of centralised control.)

Just like your cancer example. I don’t believe we need better tech/medicine to “fight cancer”. We need to heal our selves (individually and collectively) from the inside out to stop “creating” cancer.

This is the perspective of more and more mainstream physicians and scientists now as well.

But it sucks, because it means we have to dump all of our old victim narratives and come together collectively.

Bitcoiners like Jeff Booth speak to this much more eloquently than I.

Thank you for your time and patience with this chat. 🙏🏻

Peace friend 💓🧬

His meaning goes deeper than that. Have a look for yourself. 👁️

Need to still the mind a wee bit first 🧘‍♂️

WE are the tech!!! 👁️🪬💓🧬

Thanksgiving

I am thankful for my life--all of it. Each any every minor details that has created who I am, and my thrown life into this world. It is a complex and complete tale of how I am to become who I am suppose to be, and I am here for it. Despite the fact that most of my life I feel less-than, incapable, and incompetent about what is before me; there are moments into which infinity unveils itself just for the shortest of all durations and I can see it, I can see it all, and it is the face of God showing itself for the briefest of moments. But in those moments that all else is defined, and that the whole of who I am is realized in the flash of an instant; the entirety of my being is consolidated into one, and I am so thankful for what it is, and what I have been given. I can see each and every beautiful monad that is the path of my life towards who I am and the majesty of who I will become.

Much of that becoming is only through my understanding of what Bitcoin is, what it represents in our world of today, and how it will allow for us to save humanity from the clutches of evil that are growing more powerful with each passing day. Bitcoin is not about money in any contemporary sense; but the birth of a new kind of law for all of humankind and into all of the known future for humanity. It is the one and only law that has always stood before time and always has and always will outlast the temporality of any being for what it really is: Aletheia. Speaking to this essence that I know to be Bitcoin is the task that I have been chosen for, and what I am most thankful for on this day.

All people everywhere now have a form of law that can keep their wealth and property secured forever no matter what, and it is through the protocols of self sovereignty that Bitcoin as a social contract of what the being is through cryptography it represents. Bitcoin may now become our sacred value and relic that bonds all of us into the ethos of time itself, and what it means to be a human being on our planet today, and moving forward for all of human time. Only with Bitcoin have we discovered a new kind of law that is beyond the legality of any nation-state, and its armies of lawyers, bureaucrats and politicians; all who seek to make infinite war against everlasting peace, and enforce and invisible system of power, surveillance and control against all beings everywhere, forever. In short, fiat money is evil, and it must be destroyed.

To destroy this evil system of surveillance, control, and domination is the most holy of all tasks of our time, and is a spiritual calling that many already have been called to. At this very time there are thousands that hear the call and are discovering for themselves the truth of the task before us all and what it means to be called to that.

I am thankful for the task that I have personally been call towards to educate my people on the task of cryptosovereignty and the power to which each and every being may now hold to honor, respect, cherish, and dignify the one and only law will redeem us all from our fallen world and the sinister fate that we all have become ensnared within. We are to unveil the the laws of the universe together and the infinite capacity of cryptography to protect the knowledge of what is mine and what is yours for all peoples everywhere, forever. No matter their station of birth, creed of religion, color of their skin, or any other identifying feature; we may all now use the shield of cryptography to protect ourselves from anyone else who may seek to harm us through the very knowledge of who we are.

To show people this secret is a most beautiful and sacred task that only the seekers shall know. It is a knowledge of what the future will become when it is freed from the avarice and slavery of moderninty and all of its appendages of death and power that seek to make us into slaves who are little more than flesh based machines for the free rape and exploitation of whatever powers there may be. What we see is the light and agency within each and every being to now choose a new and better existence for all through banishing the last vestiges of slavery that we call fiat money and all of the tentacles that come from that evil lie. It is an existence of purpose, drive, and calling that allows for a radical new world to be unveiled that needs you to help create it.

Bitcoin needs your help show the world that understanding this is a most blessed and sacred of tasks. It is something that shall be remembered for all of human time to come for it represents the moment that humanity as one group of peoples finally stood up to take their place in history to be the final liberators of the individual from the oppression of the collective forever. Each being may now choose for themselves alone what system they will choose to create and support, or which they will be enslaved to and forced to serve. There will always only be one truth against any infinate number of lies their may be, and it is our task to expose the world to what this means, and how the return towards The Truth as Aletheia and how that shall set all of us free.

No longer must we tolerate the lies of fiat money and the world it has created, nor will we continue to allow for the illegal, unconstitutional, and unethical wars that so guilefully and obtusely contort and control the money of the whole world to kill and enslave our brothers and sisters everywhere. Now is the time that we may rise to the task of freeing ourselves and our posterity from the yoke of fiat money and what it is, so that we may open the future towards a new and better time for all. It is time to free ourselves so that we may make the world a better place for all beings to be free forever.

This is what I am thankful for this Thanksgiving, and I hope you are too. Thank you my friends, my brothers, my sisters; and thank you most of all to Satoshi Nakamoto—whoever you may be.

Love you brother 💓

Never been so happy to see the price of Bitcoin go DOWN.

Washing out all of this overly exuberant short term speculation. 🧼🤪

All the while helping Long Term HODLers stack and get coins off exchanges. 💎 🤚

Meant “MSTR” is a Rorschach Test. But come to think of it, both apply 🧐
