Gotcha - lot of us are here - but I need a push to commit time again to Nostr.
Thanks brother. Come hang in the telegram if you like.
Why is it impossible to be sovereign if you add no value?
Because others who also add no value will sell you out to save themselves - and nobody will stop them from doing so because if you don’t add value -
Nobody really cares if you live or die, make it or don’t
Only if you provide something that people couldn’t access without your existence - does your existence matter to anybody.
The more value you add, the more people have your back, especially when you have to stand up for yourself, and the more sovereign you will be.
Sovereignty is only available to those who can earn Bitcoin. Earning Bitcoin is a proxy measure for your ability to add value.
You’re only sovereign if you add value - period. You might have a big enough stack to be valuable as a buyer but the vast majority of people need to do more for people.
There are only 2 ways to earn it:
1. Get someone who has it to trade it to you for a good or svc.
2. Run a miner and pay the elec nut
Start with #2 until you have the skills to reliably do #1.

I’ll go to this if it’s a quasi btc/nostr meetup
Yeah, I’m gonna have to go ahead and, yeah….disagree.
Swan’s 5% may as well be in the hands of the govt. so make it 23.51%.
Blackrock hitched their wagon to the Confederacy.
Texas gonna defrock the Feds
Wall St is not joining us - deal with it.
NGU is great for nyms. Terrible for local plebs who meet in meatspace.
Eye on the prize. Local communities are for supporting each other in being ungovernable. Never get comfortable.
Make sure you have farmers, doctors, electricians, plumbers, and teachers to get through a more severe version of 2020/2021 and never comply with the clowns.
We will win!
That is capitulation.
The difference is exactly as you described - bankruptcy.
Bitcoiners waiting for validation are not gonna make it.
Btcoiners worried that the US might get its act together and employ sound monetary policy:
We’re at war in Ukraine, Israel, and Texas
That’s just what we know of.
The printing will continue.
Forever Laura.
The fiat system will NEVER legitimize Bitcoin.
They will only capitulate and lie about it.
Stop begging for their recognition.
Stop waiting for their validation.
Bitcoin will only truly reward those who see it without needing that validation
We go from 10M to 3M and the next golden age of building begins. Now 4 billion people know what only a few million learned from Gox.
I CANT WAIT!!!

Yeah but they won’t mind disclosing the ones due to Bitcoin. This is the use case
If you aren’t using algebra in life you’re doing it wrong.
No football player ever complains that they do not run through tires or have to lift weights during a game:
Algebra and math are part of having sovereignty over your own mind. You are likely unaware of how much you use it and how much more you are capable of.
Bitcoiners need math in the worst way. They are on the gridiron trying to avoid psy-ops, homeschool their kids, and protect a network they don’t really understand.
Let’s take algebra off this list and put it on the ToDo list!
LFG!
By the time the chickens come home to roost on Blackrock teaming up with Coinbase to launch the Bitcoin ETF -
A large % of the issuance will be involved in a ponzi that will require liquidation.
I say it happens in 2030 and XBTUSD tanks from 10m to 3m
Plan accordingly
If you’re a Bitcoiner and you are not maniacally distrustful of influencers on Bitcoin including the people who wrote your favorite books:
You’re NGMI
Poker is about being the best at the table. 2nd best goes broke

Nothing builds a low time preference quite like waiting 210000 blocks for a moment that will take yet more years for the outside world to realize.
Our sense of time is out-of-phase with the outside world but our time is where we win.
It’s quite possible that we all think we win!
