Is the U.S.dollar still backed by gold?

If you’re a #Mendocino resident and interested in #bitcoin  DM me. We’ll meet for coffee (my treat) I’ll help you download a wallet and give you your first sats (fractions of a bitcoin.)

Help make #bitcoin  our local currency.

When you tell people about #bitcoin  it’s like telling them the air they’ve been breathing their entire lives is killing them and now there is a cleaner, healthier choice.

But people tend to trust the polluted air they know rather than some better but unfamiliar alternative.

Good morning from #Mendocino .

Kris Kristofferson’s ranch is for sale just down Highway 1 from #Mendocino . I hope one of you #bitcoin whales will buy it and preserve these 500+ acres as your low time preference legacy. @sothebysrealty

We’ve all grown up with inflation. Inflation seems inevitable. But understand this: ‘Things’ are not becoming more expensive. It’s the currency that’s buying things that is losing purchasing power.

Understanding this is the first step to understanding #bitcoin.

“Ideas are bulletproof.” Fighting against any new technology or way of life -- be it fire, the wheel, the printing press, the automobile, the computer, Bitcoin, or anything else -- only hurts the aggressor. That's why many bitcoiners are known to say: "Governments cannot ban Bitcoin; they can only ban themselves from Bitcoin."

Accepting credit cards at Burger King in 1993 is analogous to where we are with accepting #Bitcoin  at retail in 2023.

Wondering what the US Debt priced in Bitcoin is?

$32,964,000,000,000 USD of Federal debt.

$26,600 current USD price of Bitcoin.

Therefore current US debt is 1,239,000,000 Bitcoin.

The capped supply of #Bitcoin   is 21,000,000.

There is a movement towards eliminating cash from societies around the world. #Bitcoin  is the antidote to this trend as it has no issuer, no central bank and no government controlling it.

With #bitcoin self custody you can never lose your Bitcoin. Your Bitcoin are always on the blockchain. What you CAN lose is access to them.

If your business accepts credit cards…

You can copy #Bitcoin’s source code all you want, but you cannot copy Bitcoin's origins. It raised no capital. There was no pre-mine. It has no insiders. It has no issuer. There's no one in charge. This is what makes Bitcoin unique…the digital perfection of money.

Lately I’ve talked to several people…the guy selling firewood, the woman doing daycare, the store owner in town, & the story keeps coming back to one theme; the hollowed out middle class struggling to survive on a failing currency.

#Mendocino

Most of us who are working to pay rent, gettin children to school and making sure dinner’s on the table, don’t think much about Federal budget deficits and the national debt. But under our feet an economic earthquake is building. This is why #Bitcoin is worth studying.
