Yes. I've tried convincing the people I love most to at least study Bitcoin. Almost all have dismissed me without much thought.
Painful.
Seems they are too well off and/or too stubborn to have an open mind about it.

I have been building up my freedom tech stack.
Smartphone & Laptop - Above Phone & Abovebook
Looking into nostr:npub1z3r2s5020hplyvzrkhc04lt2yvwc3anlmtr8kerjhp8qj5m5yhyqvuzmvf and nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll to be able to have sovereignty over all of my data.
Slowly but surely, I'll move all of my life from the fiat tech stack (Google) to the freedom tech stack.
It may take a while, but I want to move my small business to the freedom tech stack as well. It will take a good amount of convincing my employees, but it feels like the only way to survive the rest of this decade.
Seriously, did not see this coming. Complete change.
Bitcoiners and Nostriches are my heroes. I love you guys.

Being a Bitcoiner is like playing a game of chicken with the central bankers.
When the central bankers print a bunch of money, the Bitcoiners get filthy rich. When they raise interest rates and suck liquidity out of the system, Bitcoiners become "poor" in fiat terms. However, if the central bankers tighten for too long, their whole credit based Ponzi scheme falls apart.
Who's gonna flinch first?
Not the psychopaths who've been staying humble and stacking sats for years 🫡
We know that the central bankers are con artists.
We know that their system is broken.
It's only a matter of time before the central bankers swerve off the road and crash into the ravine.

These next several months will be a doozy.
Grateful to have this network to rely on for information you don't get anywhere else 🫡
I know "we're still so early" to Bitcoin.
But damn, we are REALLY EARLY to Nostr.
"Most people don’t grow up. It’s too damn difficult. What happens is most people get older. That’s the truth of it. They honor their credit cards, they find parking spaces, they marry, they have the nerve to have children, but they don’t grow up. Not really. They get older. But to grow up costs the earth, the earth. It means you take responsibility for the time you take up, for the space you occupy. It’s serious business. And you find out what it costs us to love and to lose, to dare and to fail. And maybe even more, to succeed. What it costs, in truth."

Thanks for sharing.
I'm grateful for...
A healthy body and mind.
Meaningful work that helps me fill my day.
Beautiful relationships in my life.
Oh and Bitcoin!

Never trust a statist. Never.
The battle for a global #Bitcoin standard will likely be longer and harder than we think.
The fiat parasites are going to fight tooth and nail to maintain their positions. They will lie, cheat, steal, and murder to try and prop up the fiat Ponzi scheme. They will likely try and frame and blame Bitcoiners for the failure of THEIR system.
Let's see how it plays out. But I think we are in for lots of surprises on the journey.
