The more they attack bitcoin, the more anti-fragile it becomes. Bitcoin evolves and adapts despite oppression from the state or any other actors. Bitcoin thrives under pressure as it forces evolution.
gm. bitcoin or slavery. it really is that simple
You know it feels like hardly a single day passes without feeling like I’m being totally fucked by my own government. Family man, entrepreneur, employer, never been convicted of a crime and I’m being backed into a corner for which there is seemingly no peaceful way out of. The authoritarian wrecking ball is in swing.
Agreed. I did not care for the way Samourai guys handle business but they are 100% getting fucked by the justice system. Financial privacy is not a crime but it's obvious they are trying to make it illegal.
This whole Samourai situation is pretty fucked for a whole bunch of reasons but.... Samourai skeptics were right.
Now we begin the evolution of building better privacy tools with proper decentralization and no trusted third parties to secure data.
Let the anti-fragile games begin.
Remember kids financial privacy is NOT ok!
Unless…. You’re the federal reserve, pentagon, federal government sending aid to foreign countries, etc..
Remember, the federal government hates you and thinks you’re stupid. Treat them accordingly
"Fiat money is a bank liability. Bitcoin is actually money." Great quote from nostr:npub1sfhflz2msx45rfzjyf5tyj0x35pv4qtq3hh4v2jf8nhrtl79cavsl2ymqt that i feel like is so under appreciated by people still infected with the fiat virus.

Good data. Is there a version of the graph that isn't in grayscale?
I mean hardware wallets are legit scary since there is a lot of trust involved when you plug in a device. Only really got confident when I got a coldcard since you can verify the entropy used in the seed and I never plug the device into a computer.
You know it’s still sort of shocking how few people grasp the programmable part of programmable money. Bitcoin is infinitely upgradeable. There are no gatekeepers, no rules, no constraints on what can and will become. For example, hardware wallets weren’t even a thing when I first came around. I kept a paper wallet in my safe and reused that address. Point is, you buy Bitcoin not necessarily for what it is today but knowing its broader market appeal will inevitably increase as development doesn’t relent on open source permissionless protocols. Just another one of bitcoins cheat codes
My miner is thankful for their sats.
