Money is the operating system of society. When the OS is corrupted none of the apps function correctly.
Our dollar-based financial system is manipulated by central bankers. The most obvious affect of this is inflation.
#Bitcoin is money enforced by code and out of the reach of mere mortals. 
Wait a second…what’s this all about? 
Imagine Mike Pence talking about the psychology benefits of dropping acid.
Now imagine Larry Fink talking about the financial benefits of holding #bitcoin.
I went to Corners today (a health food store in a former church) to get horehound tincture for this nasty little cough I’ve got.

We are conned into thinking 1971 prices are ‘quaint olde timey’ prices. We tend to chuckle at how ‘cheap’ things were almost as if people must have been more naive back then.
But in reality these ‘prices’ reflect the stronger purchasing power of the dollar before it was untethered from gold.
#Bitcoin is a return to hard money. This is why prices, in bitcoin terms, fall over time.

I stopped watching the news, stopped following politics. I drink a little less in the evening and improved my diet. I’m getting more exercise doing chores around here like stacking wood and I get a walk in most days. I’m sleeping well, drinking more water and saving in #bitcoin.

There’s several state parks and also Jackson State Forest + thousands of acres of privately owned forests managed by Mendo Redwood Co.
California is dotted with places that are big and influential and small but consequential. For example,
head up the coast from San Francisco and you’ll eventually arrive at the epicenter of rural backwaters…Mendocino, a nineteenth century lumber town that reluctantly began welcoming counterculture pioneers in the late twentieth century. Mendocino is a place where you can live simply, where you don’t need to lock your doors, where you have access to thousands of acres of wildland and where you can enjoy the natural world while respecting its inherent risks - - get lost on a forest trail and die from hyperthermia. Get too close to the ocean and be washed away by a rogue wave. - - It’s a place to escape to while the world rages around you with seismic change. https://video.nostr.build/4c83a53c21afdf3fc86b4b562387b89e4b5710b4f35e66ce26e8df895e4f2dc8.mp4
The SEC is poised to approve a #bitcoin exchange traded fund. Here’s why you’re better off just holding Bitcoin directly.
If only there were a small town somewhere next to the ocean. Somewhere with spectacular scenery and beautiful beaches yet close to thousands of acres of forest. Somewhere where everyone knows their neighbors and #bitcoin is the local currency. I’d move there in a heartbeat. 
Any business can accept #bitcoin right now without asking anyone’s permission. Question is why would a business want to accept bitcoin?
Apart from standing out in a crowd and gaining the attention of bitcoin advocates globally, bitcoin is a long-term hedge against the ongoing ravages of inflation.

2024 is likely to be a pivotal year for #bitcoin . On the one hand there are purists who want to see Bitcoin thrive as money, and possibly as a global reserve currency outside the control of the powers-that-be.
On the other hand as bitcoin begins to encroach on the dollar’s territory the powers-that-be (who are beginning to understand bitcoin cannot be stopped) want to get it under their control.
Bitcoin was always going to either fade into obscurity or eat the world. As it begins to eat the world we’ll find out what happens when an immovable object meets an unstoppable force. 
Good morning from #Mendocino! 
If you stumble upon #bitcoin and try to map it on to your life experience you’ll probably just ignore it. But if you forget everything you know and start with two questions:
What is money?
What’s wrong with the money we’re using today?
you’re ready to understand #bitcoin
