₿itcoin has so many personal cycles you have to go through.

First you spend your time checking the charts every minute after your first purchase. It drops and you wonder if you’ve done the right thing.

Second you give yourself price guides “when it gets to this number I can buy this or that”

Third you decide to study a bit so you read arguably the most important books nostr:nprofile1qqsg86qcm7lve6jkkr64z4mt8lfe57jsu8vpty6r2qpk37sgtnxevjcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgqgcwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8xmn0wf6zuum0vd5kzmq3v5m00 “The Price Of Tomorrow” nostr:npub1d3f4m9dgvkdjxn26pqzsxn6lpfn78sxwllxyt8mp76q0a9zyyjlswhr4xv “The Big Print”

Fourth you buy more ₿itcoin because you think you’ve finally got “it”.

Fifth you watch the volatility in fiat and you have conviction but flick mentally between the fiat price and what you can do with it and the offering of freedom.

Then……something shifts, ₿itcoin forces you to look inside yourself and you see yourself for the first time. Which in turn reveals what ₿itcoin has been trying to show you all along.

This isn’t just a financial shift this is a once in a lifetime upgrade for the human species through the lense of ₿itcoin. But ultimately through the lense of discovering you for the very first time in your life.

That’s where the freedom comes from.

It was always spiritual, the change was always coming and it is beautiful.

It’s all love.

If you can solve this you are a genius

Bitcoin was something very serious. A system of electronic money that was impossible to counterfeit, impossible to censor, and impossible to confiscate.

Bitcoin was fighting against central banks, against states, and against large corporations, where the interaction of these three agents forms what I call neo-mercantilism.

Now Bitcoin is no longer known for what it is; it has lost its essence because the three-letter agencies have gotten deeply involved in its development.

Of course, it can still perform its function, but the deterioration it has suffered in its initial idea and also in its defense is more than evident. Right now, half of the community is corrupt and participates in the state's idea.

It's curious that many influencers who defended scams like Samourai, Monero, and other crap are in favor of this, which shows that the bad actors have always been the same.

Is there a solution? With each passing day, I become more pessimistic. All they want is for Blackrock, Vanguard, and their fucking mothers to buy bitcoin. They don't care about privacy, and they don't care that Core is run by a group of lesbians and transvestites on the CIA's payroll.

a bunch of people are swapping bitcoin for gold and silver

they will regret it

the only precious metals worth owning are brass and lead

😀 #Happy #meme

BREAKING: #Bitcoin is witnessing the greatest public price manipulation in its history, just so big institutions can scoop up cheap coins.

Don’t be fooled! Don’t sell your precious coins to these scammers. F*CK THEM, HODL!

Help me decide

You don’t have enough #Bitcoin, if you are still active on LinkedIn.

THIS NOTE IS FOR MYSELF

People who sell things love to tell you that you are 'saving' money.

The idea of "saving" or "savings" is a propagandized word.

A seller will tell you, "If you buy this within the next three days, then you'll be saving 25%." The reality is you might just be spending less.

Spending less is good if planned, but if something is suddenly on sale for a lower price, and I buy it then I never saved any money because I have less money now than before I bought it.

Many wonder why we have taxes if they have the printer to make money, or why they want more and more money from us when they can create it.

Because it's not just that they want to be very rich, which they already are, it's that they want others to be poor, to never achieve freedom, so that they can keep workers dependent on the system.

There is nothing less dangerous than a man who goes from work to home and from home to work and has his mind occupied with paying bills.

Highest Zapper on this post in 24 hours I will personally say Good Morning and Good Night to you in a post every day for 90 days, and that's a promise.

I am testing something, this could get interesting.

#plebchain

what do we hit first?

$70k or $150k?

A heck of a lot of FUD going around right now trying to take your coins “quantum is coming and will send bitcoin to zero” “core is compromised better get out while you can” “the bear market is here better sell before it gets worse” “Bitcoin can not scale and has zero privacy better swap it for zcash” “the cost to mine a bitcoin is way higher than the current market price of bitcoin” “Saylor is about to get liquidated better sell before that happens” “ Jeffery Epstein is Satoshi Nakamoto”

So much noise the signal remains the same

Stay humble and stack sats

Like nostr:npub1rtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudks7djtfs says hodling is like having a knife fight in a phone booth

I think most Bitcoiners haven’t fully grokked how much work Gloria (and Greg Sanders and others) did to get package relay and zero-fee anchors and TRUC over the line and how absolutely critical this work is to Lightning, Ark, Spark, and nearly everything bitcoiners are going to be using over the next few years.

A Bad Day

I overslept and missed my train,

slipped on the sidewalk in the pouring rain,

sprained my ankles, skinned my knees,

broken my glasses, lost my keys,

got stuck in the elevator, it won't go,

kicked it twice and stubbed my toe,

bought a pen that didn't write,

took it back and had a fight,

went home angry, locked the door,

crawled into bed, couldn't take any more.

I scrolled through Twitter today after posting our weekly company updates.

Here’s what I learned:

1) Zcash is the next Bitcoin

2) Bitcoin is going to 70k

3) MSTR is going bust this week

4) Fidelity predicts Zcash will go to $100k

5) What Epstein files?

bitcoin has been trading weak since the october10th shitcoin carnage

gotta imagine some big players were absolutely rekt but the bodies have yet to surface

stay humble and stack sats 🫡

I would be more concerned about this kind of thoughts

It’s a way to fix the absolute mess left by core30.

we need bitcoin starter packs.

Do you have a "server" in your home? If yes, what do you use it for? If no, why not?

I can't believe how anyone can suggest without a hint of irony or sarcasm that you have to contribute to a specific open source project in order to have an opinion about Bitcoin.

This is simultaneously elitist and mind-bogglingly stupid.

It's correct that Bitcoin Core is an important part of the Bitcoin technology stack, but it isn't the only client available, which is a good thing.

Being able to understand the code of Bitcoin Core gives you the ability to do exactly one thing: understand the code of Bitcoin Core. It says absolutely nothing about your ability to understand the implications of changes to the system, of what users want, or the purpose of Bitcoin itself, for that matter.

Bitcoin Core developers are developing a product, and their customers are the users of the Bitcoin network. The Core developers don't get to dictate what the users are supposed to think. It's entirely the other way around. If the users don't like something Core plans to do, Core shouldn't make the change.

Core ignored its users, so now they're getting fired, by users switching to an alternate client.
