The future is peer-to-peer.

The future is open source.

The future is freedom.

The future is peace.

We are building the future we want with #Bitcoin and #Nostr

I believe #Bitcoin was created as a weapon to destroy the global central banking cartel.

This is why we #Bitcoin.

The entire legacy system has been designed to:

- Enslave us

- Kill us

- Profit off of enslaving and killing us

This is why we #Bitcoin

GM Nostr.

I highly recommend this interview with David Rogers Webb as well as his book, "The Great Taking."

Is it too much to ask that the world not be run by liars, thieves, murderers, and paedophiles?

Good morning. We still like the coin. We still writes the notes. We still zap the sats.

The most important lesson I've learned during my #Bitcoin journey so far is:

Don't trust. Verify.

Don't take people at face value. Don't trust what they say, watch what they do.

Before going down the rabbit hole, I was naive and too quick to trust. As "educated" as I was, I didn't flex my critical thinking skills enough.

Now I (at least try to) take everything with a grain of salt. Take in information, but try to withhold judgement until more time passes and more information comes in to confirm or deny my thesis.

What's been the most important lesson for you during this wild ride?

We're doing the damn thing y'all.

These are the golden days we'll tell our grandkids about 🫡

Fake money + fake food = fake people.

Real money + real food = real people.

Amazing how much better life gets with Bitcoin and beef.

OH THAT'S FUNNY. MY DCA IS SET TO BUY EVERY MORNING WHEN THE SUN RISES. ERGO I FRONT RUN THE SUITS EVERY MORNING. SUITS DON'T STAND A CHANCE. GOOD MORNING 🫡

GM Nostr. Another day, another stack. 🫡

I was rewatching the GoT Battle of the Bastards episode at the end of S6.

At the start of the episode, Daenarys and Tyrion are talking in the pyramid while Meeren is under siege by "the Masters."

Tyrion says, "The Masters cannot let Meeren succeed. Because if Meeren succeeds, a city without slavery, a city without Masters... it proves that no one needs a Master."

If we replace the Masters with the Central Banks, and Meeren with #Bitcoin... Now we understand why the Central Banks and their lackeys will fight us so hard. Bitcoin makes them absolete.

If Bitcoin succeeds, it proves no one needs a banker.

George Carlin said it: "The planet is fine. The people are fucked."

I would amend it for today: the people without #Bitcoin and #Nostr are fucked.

There are billions of women in the world, but there are only 21 million #Bitcoin.

Happy Valentine's Day to all my fellow single pleb legends 🫡

It feels like the suddenly part is coming soon.
