Are you for real? They control their relays. They control what happens on their relays. They never give up control for a second. No relay provider does. Any of them can shadow ban you at any time. Just because you can. post somewhere else doesn't effect them

Normie's I Know brag about hownlittle they care what data Google has. They claim its well worth it. Little do they know their data generates over $100,000 in revenue for google a year

How long will that be the case when Meta and X make the switch?

I like Damus and a bunch of other platforms. It remindsmwe of the early days of MySpace and Facebook. I was one of the first few million Facebook users. Way before any of my normie friends. It was just like this. Possibilities were endless and everyone had amazojg outlooksofn the future. Then the normies came in with their demands.

I mean how are relay hosts dealing with children data protection? I bet most haven't even bothered investing much in to it since most of us are most likely over 25. But Meta and X already have all the protections in place for children

Normie's like yo unload responsibility and liability on to others. Especially with recent actions from governments. That's why Meta and CashApp are so in demand. They offer consumer protection. That's why when the big social media players switch to Nostr they will probably dominate

only way to attract the normies

When you take the loan the bank prints the dollars for you. You are adding to inflation. I thank you for your service

Spending Bitcoin on trivial things now is selfish. By holding and waiting for hyperbitcoinization, you can create immense value and spread joy on a much larger scale in the future

The greater the sacrifice, the greater the reward. Those sats everyone throws around so frivoloussly can literally change the world in the future.

I used to be all about spreading #bitcoin to anyone I could as fast as I could. I loved that feeling of love and joy. Then I realized it was because I was stuck in an easy money mindset. When I switched to a hard money mindset it became a responsibility to hodl as much as I can so that one day I can maybe make a true impact that will make the world a truly better place.

I don't know about you but I plan on exploring the cosmos. Not physically myself, unless technology gets insane which it very well could be with these new generations of semiconductors coming in the next few years 👀

Perpetual motion of spending Bitcoin won't change its scarcity. The wise will hold, the shortsighted will spend.

I get that, but hard money will always outlast fleeting expenditures.

Value might be subjective, but scarcity isn't

It's fun watching people blow generational wealth on stuff that don't matter
