What is Bitcoin?

#Bitcoin  is a form of digital currency that can be used as a medium of exchange for goods and services. It has gained popularity in recent years due to its decentralized nature.

#Bitcoin  is the Digital Gold

I'm starting to talk about normie finance on Twitter. Index funds, credit cards, travel rewards, whole life insurance...I'm just going to pretend as if I've never even heard about bitcoin on there. 😉

If I post to Twitter I'm helping grow Elon's bottom line.

If I post to Nostr I'm helping change the world for the better.

I know it will take time. I'm in no rush, just privileged i can help in a small way.

If someone opens a sentence with “blockchain” what’s the first thing that comes to your mind?

So if FTX comes back online…. We going to talk about the paper bitcoin or nah?

Please somebody convince me to sell my Ethereum🙏

Does nostr recommend the book "the price of tomorrow"

I'm considering spending 3 million sats on an little aluminium fishing boat this morning.

It's a little high time preference but I'm willing to take the hit.

What’s your favorite Nostr web client?

Tell me I’m crazy but I see a very high correlation between people who get bitcoin and those who have trained hard in their lives.

Whether it be academics, sports, music or the arts. People who have dedicated their time, effort, energy and focus on various endeavours in their lives seemingly understand the effort it takes to understand bitcoin. Perhaps it is a function of who we are as people.

On the other side, those people in my life who haven’t trained or applied themselves in their lives, those who simply exist without passions or focus find bitcoin hard to understand.

Tell me what your passion was? Does what I say ring true?

For me it was music. I’ve played guitar since I was 8.

Elon is Littlefinger

Most conversation I’ve seen on a note so far. It’s happening…

Too many people have given Elon a pass. Don't give him a pass.

He's a marketer, not a founder or an engineer. He didn't found PayPal or Tesla; he bought into them early. He's good at selling narratives and equity valuation for perpetually unprofitable companies.

Everything for him is a narrative. His green revolution was a narrative to sell more cars and get more subsidies. His bitcoin purchase was to gain appeal among bitcoin/crypto people in a bull market. And he shilled doge like a dumbass. His SpaceX narrative is to get money from the government.

His rooftop solar thing was an outright scam; the technology isn't ready and went nowhere because of that. His full-self-driving-in-an-intermediate-term timeline was a scam, and is going nowhere because of that. He makes scams to draw people and capital in, because for him it's all about narratives and equity valuation.

And then he dug unproductive holes, suggested unproductive hyper-tubes, built meme flamethrowers, for what? It's a narrative, not a business. None of this is real productive shit to make peoples' lives better.

His latest "we need free speech" narrative was a scam too. He tapped into something real, which is what marketers do and why it kind of worked. Yes, we need free speech. Yes, Twitter had censorship issues. He saw that and jumped on it maliciously rather than productively.

But what did he replace it with? He replaced it with arbitrary journalist censorship about his private jet, arbitrary censorship of Substack, selective Twitter Files release, won't talk seriously about any of his China connections because Xi Jinping fucking owns him economically there like Jack Ma, has his balls firmly in his grasp, etc.

Elon's playing the narrative, the anti-woke meme of the day. He's a master meme-momentum-player. Don't fall for it.

Fiat money was not money but a system of control.

Twitter is a shitcoin
