I need to do the same

Reminds me of my own lost coins. Mine is a Bitcoin core wallet that I encrypted and can't remember the password to back in 2013. Taught me a hell of a lesson about backup practices. I kept all the subsequent coins on Coinbase until 2022 when I did a deep dive into learning.
There other benefit of that forced HODL is seeing over that time how well that original investment did.
Gave me the conviction I have now to keep stacking and never stop.
Glad you were able to reclaim what you lost. While losing coins is sad, people CAN turn it to a silver lining.
I know this is taboo to most people... But when #Bitcoin hits $1M/coin I'm absolutely taking my family on an amazing vacation for 2M sats. Those memories are totally going to be worth it.
Large so I can roll them up and dip them in butter!
Just finished an advanced copy of the first #Bitcoin novel. nostr:npub1yx5daemgy8fq973ckw5ecd4jt4ca7k2pzxv0evnjv7f96ddtkxnspduumh you knocked it out of the park bro!
Another day, another reminder that Craig Wright is not Satoshi.
Just signed up for primal premium. Paid in sats of course. It's a much higher badge of honor than the blue check.
Living free indeed!
The hardest part about being a bitcoiner for me, is that I've put so many damn hours into my conviction. Podcasts, books, articles, etc. I've studied this thing for so long, I can't possibly put that knowledge into a 5 minute conversation.
And it's so difficult because I know past me, needs all the arguments and reasoning as to why we're going to $10M+ a coin... But almost no one else's brain works that way.
The saving characteristic I have that I can say most bitcoiners share is: curiosity. I needed to KNOW about this thing. Most everyone else is looking for a quick buck. It's incredibly frustrating not being able to convince someone.

2 days and two hours until I get on a plane to see my wife! It's been far too long apart.
I have to constantly remind myself I stacked as hard as I can without taking on leverage. I wish I had more, but don't we all. My family has a roof over their head, beef on the table, and sats in cold storage. Life's good.
I thought they owned a string of hotels. I'm pretty sure I remember Dylan saying that's what the operating business is.
One of the greatest mistakes we make in life, is we expect other people to react to information/news/situations the way we would react to them.
New information makes me reevaluate my position. Am I making an error? Maybe I'm not correct.
Most people don't do this. In fact they did a study where you show someone concrete proof of the opposite of their belief, and what happened? They believed the wrong thing HARDER.
So just remember this will help you filter people worth being around.
I've watched "It's a Wonderful Life" in 3 different decades of life and thought differently about it each time.
In my early years I didn't really understand any of the concepts. Just thought it was funny, "I wish I had a million bucks! Hot dog!"
Was just an old black and white movie my mom liked. She never TALKED with me about it though. Never gave me principles or values as to WHY it's a good movie.
In my twenties I revisited the movie. I thought it was terrible. George is basically being forced into things with no regard for his own wants and needs. He's basically dragged along through life and never says, "screw this town I'm leaving." This was also in the height of my atheist phase.
In my thirties I watched it again and was completely blown away with how different it hits. Now I'm married, and attending church regularly. And I felt it in my soul how crushing it must've felt for George to be trying to hold everything together, and one mistake felt like his entire family that DEPENDS on him is about to be on the street. I couldn't stop the tears as he hugs his son tight knowing he failed them.
It describes the male experience of having a family so freaking well. The enormous pressure, that God built men to be able to handle, that falls upon men as head of the household. We make decisions and take risks for our wives and children, knowing that our sacrifices are needed for them to be happy and grow, and we pay that price gladly. But there are times when it seems like things are getting out of hand. We shield them from the burden of the knowledge that we might be one fuck up away from disaster.
There's no one else that truly understands this EXCEPT other good husbands/fathers. It's a unique burden that we men are meant to carry. But it also gives us the most happiness, knowing that we successfully navigated our family through the dangers of life, and got appreciation from our wives and kids on the other side.
While I'm sure it also shows the female burden, I'm a guy, and don't fully realize the responsibility on the traditional woman/wife shoulders. But it's a great movie and I highly recommend it.
Currently looking forward to Christmas. It's the first time in 18 years that I'll ACTUALLY be with family on Christmas day.
Reposting because "nutzaps" is the funniest thing I've heard in awhile 😂🤣😂🤣

Everyone is trying to engagement farm on Twitter. Feels very fake. Come to NOSTR for the good stuff
I trained to failure on my bench press on Monday (unintentionally, not recommended without a spotter) and I couldn't finish out the reps I needed to do.
Just finished the same weight today like it's easy. The human body is astounding.
