I just paid the invoice. Where's my company?
The beginning of control.
"Believe, and fall in line... or else..."
Or we could be true to our values and say "fuck off" to ALL fiat.
Start businesses that contribute to the end of fiat, instead of ones that support it.
Sorry, Jack. I seriously love you, I'm just sick of the fiat ass-kissing coming from Bitcoiners lately.
Just stop using and supporting slave money. Why isn't so hard??
I agree with nostr:npub1zzmxvr9sw49lhzfx236aweurt8h5tmzjw7x3gfsazlgd8j64ql0sexw5wy . I'd pay to watch you sit in a chair correctly.
This entire thread is fire. The article linked, and the comments, are definitely worth the read.
Definitely a good book that everyone should read at least once.
Shocking == shitcoin.
Autocorrect doesn't know shit about being self-sovereign.
People use TCP/IP all day everyday....
But do they KNOW they are using it?? NO!
They shouldn't have to KNOW they are using Lightning, either. Stop confusing them! They already barely know what Bitcoin is. Lightning just sounds like a shocking to them.
Same goes for eCash on a Fedimint protocol. These are essentially nerd-layers that need to be abstracted away from the general public. Just tell them they're using Bitcoin and watch them get excited. Don't confuse them with "Lightning" and "ecash". Just make it work for them.
On the other-hand..... people not willing to learn should be weeded out, Darwinian style. Bushido of Bitcoin style. Fiat has enabled a whole generation of idiots. Time for
That to end.
Time to go all in. No more excuses.
Using the nostr:npub1cn4t4cd78nm900qc2hhqte5aa8c9njm6qkfzw95tszufwcwtcnsq7g3vle strategy. Live on credit, take full paycheck smash buy every check full on the coin with strike. Fuck dollars. Time to start living what im preaching. Pleasure to slay with all of you.
To add to this, use BTCmap.org and Oshi to buy food and other services with Bitcoin.
Saving in Bitcoin the first step. Using it as your main medium of exchange is the next!
Looks like AI to me.
I can't wait to hear the answer to your question. But I suspect it has something to do with them being too stupid to handle basic private/public key identity. To stupid to understand the tech..... so they'll continue allowing the state to own them while they larp about sovereignty and state censorship. Amirite?
what's stopping you from living like this anon? https://video.nostr.build/0b259c1141f28e4649074b1fdc41497d4f479fd1248a89bf47ff62822fb63c6d.mp4
Hey, how you know I'm not already?
I had a funeral like this just last week. Except, it wasn't me who was being buried, it was my ColdCard.
"The colonies would gladly have borne the little tax on tea and other matters, had it not been that England took away from the colonies their money, which created unemployment and dissatisfaction. The inability of the colonies to get power to issue their own money permanently out of the hands of George III the international bankers was the prime reason for the revolutionary war."

-Distance anxiety.
Not in 2024. There are Superchargers EVERYWHERE, even super rural areas in America. I've road tripped mine across the U.S. multiple times and never had range anxiety. You ever worried about running out of gas in a car? Same damn thing.
-No parts available to repair the car.
-My mecanic can't fix it either.
Sure, but there are 100x less moving parts. The tech is more simple and streamlined. 120k Miles on mine, and never needed anything done, except new tires. Don't even have to replace break pads cuz of regenerative breaking.
-Electricity for recharging is controlled by a government monopoly in my jurisdiction.
Holy shit dude, have you looked into the global supply chain for oil???! Have you seen how much the oil companies get gov subsidies, or looked at how much they lobby in DC? Not to mention, the damn petro-dollar itself!! Oil is Fiat, literally!!!
-Ugly. Designed for wokes, not for real man.
Wtf?
-In addition to all being ugly, they all have model names with numbers instead of a simple word.
Sounds kinda baddass to me.
How does an EV limit your freedom of movement?
Even in a global epocolypse, I'd rather be off-grid with wind/solar that can charge the car indefinitely.
You can charge it with coal, wind, solar, gasoline, nuclear.... with an ICE car, you only have one option for energy.... and that option relies on global supply chains.
EV is cheaper to operate and more fun to drive. And it increases my freedom of movement.
Somewhere along the way I I lost a step.. I got sloppy... dulled my own edge.
Maybe I went and did the worst crime of all.. I got civilized.
So now, we zero the clock. Just me and this no-named world. Gotta find that animal side again...
