With the Trump administration going after speech, the United States of America is on the verge of having its Nostr moment.

BREAKING: #Bitcoin reclaims $108k.

Most people don't invest in the world they want to see. They expect it to be handed to them for free while they watch looney tunes.

Social networks did to our parents what our parents thought video games would do to us.

Selling #Bitcoin ‘cause two ego freaks are beefing is like canceling your fire insurance while your house is on fire. Fiat’s the chaos, BTC’s the hedge. STACK HARDER.

🔥🚨BREAKING NEWS: Jeffrey Epstein lawyer revealed that there is nothing negative about Donald Trump in ANY Epstein file and he asked Jeffrey Epstein personally.

To be clear, it’s good to vote for whichever candidate is less bad, since it only takes a few minutes to do, and does have some impact. But don’t get your hopes up that voting harder will fix the fundamental issue, which is the fiat system itself. Only Bitcoin can fix that.

The United States with all the energy post 9/11 couldn't subdue Afghanistan or Iraq after 20 years. You really think a war with the country that sits between them, who has better organization and resources would be *easy*?

And even if you did manage to topple that government, what then? You really want less stability, more poverty and more death in that region? Because that's exactly what you'll get.

The combo of 1) people getting sucked into digital echo chambers and 2) people believing hallucinating AI answers without checking, is going to take a lot to change.

We are in an environment where if things *look* official enough, we’ll usually just instantly believe them. Since nobody has the time or inclination to check everything.

Like, someone can just tweet a picture of me at a conference, and put a quote next to it, and tons of people will take it at face value. People won’t stop and ask “is this actually a quote of hers from this conference?” It could be years ago, out of context, or not said by me at all, but one would never know since it seemed legit enough.

The current counter to this is basically to assume most things are potentially wrong in part or in full, unless further verified. But the risk there is people get detached and don’t bother researching things.

One thing you can do is go through your follow list and remove people/entities who don’t have a high signal ratio. In other words, keep people you agree or disagree with that are locked in and high signal, but remove those who parrot things they don’t understand or spread misinformation on a regular basis.

In an environment of endless quantity, it is more important than ever to elevate quality.

Which type are you?

Have also noticed some people feel they must *wait* until they can stack a significant amount of BTC, such as a whole coin, rather than simply stack small amounts whenever they are able to. This is a variation of unit bias.

What a misleading headline! #Bitcoin is an open, decentralized network, not a political party. Anyone, anywhere, is free to use it. That’s kind of the whole point.

Avoid mainstream media at all cost.

This steady slow grind upward of the bitcoin price feels like an attempted controlled demolition of the current financial system.

Buyers have shifted from people like me YOLOing in after a "sick podcast" to institutional and geopolitical actors using complex buying strategies designed to move the price as little as possible.

This year is an inflection point for bitcoin. The secret seems to be out in the circles of power. Some of them are telling us, but most are keeping it close to the vest so they can accumulate as much as possible.

If you're telling us about your established position, it means that you're ready for the price to pump. The powers that really control things don't seem to be there yet. When they get there, it will be loud, though who knows when that comes.

The signals are clear if you're watching. Seemingly everyone is lining themselves up to be on the Bitcoin Bandwagon and the Trump admin knows that it's only way out is up. The printers are coming.

It feels like the calm before the storm. If you see it, its obvious, but most people are still looking the other direction.

My main hesitation is that this inflection point feels TOO obvious. How could it be this clear? What am I missing? Can You Take Me Higher?

At what point do their complex buying strategies bump up against the immovable object of absolute scarcity? The fiat system both seems more fragile than those in it perceive, but more resilient than Bitcoiners expect.

It really does feel like something is about to happen though.

The State is always lying to you, regardless of who’s in charge.
