bitcoin and freedom. Lightning is a settlement layer. My opinions do not reflect anyone but myself.

What's the coolest innovation in #nostr in the last 3 months?

You can control a man for a time with brute violence, but you can never truly OWN a man until he's convinced that your word is law, and he must obey - and is virtuous for doing so. Slavery never ended in the west. It just changed a bit.

wukong was a lot of fun! I got to ch.4 i think before i stopped playing it though haha. I should go back and finish it.

That's sick. I wanted to get space marine 2, and still do. im just trying to get fatalis in monster hunter world before wilds, but playing a lot of poe2 on side as well.

Man I am a dad too and I just manage to squeak in some hours before bed or early in morning after workout. Still manage to get around 20 hours in a week haha

Alright I really want to make a list of folks who are PC gamers on #nostr. Like legit, real gamers. Who is playing path of exile 2, excited for monster hunter wilds, etc. ? Are you out there?

I agree with Bitcoin mechanic:

"Crypto dies when it gets made illegal. #Bitcoin gets better.

This is anti fragility. And here's the second bit everyone forgets: Bitcoin gets made weaker and more fragile when its "users" operate within limits imposed on them by regulators."

GM. #Bitcoin is not for everyone.

Lightning is Bitcoin's privacy layer and I am tired of pretending it's not.

Too bad no one uses nostrnests.com, the nostr alternative to spaces.

If you have a house you have shelter. That has value outside of monetary value.

If you have a car you have transportation. That has value outside of monetary value.

Money is something you acquire NOT to consume.

It's a fact. If you have fiat, you are long fiat. That's not an attitude at all.

I wonder what everyone is going to do when bitcointreasuries.net total amount is over 21,000,000 lol

If you think coinbase is respecting the bitcoin supply cap, I have a ketchup popsicle to sell you.

My 12-18 month prediction:

US will start the bitcoin strategic reserve

Other countries will too

Bitcoin will pump 500k + before next christmas

More companies will have treasuries

More companies will try to take self custody

the exchanges will push back on this

the companies and the world will realize coinbase doesnt have the bitcoin they sold to them

citizens of countries with bitcoin strategic reserves and anti-bitcoin politicians will ramp up FUD

it will be exposed that MSTR does not have nearly amount of bitcoin they say they do

coinbase will go belly up

bitcoin will crash to around 90k and sit there til 2030 or so

The crash catalyst of this cycle will be when it becomes clear that coinbase is selling more #bitcoin than they actually have, and microstrategy does not have even close to the amount hey say they do. It's going to be glorious.

Fun fact: If you stacked sats at any point in 2024 and took self-custody, you have more #bitcoin than Saylor does. IOUs are not bitcoin.

It's more fun to shame self proclaimed "bitcoiners" into running their own bitcoin node stack than it is to shame window licking no-coiners to buy #bitcoin.
