You were watching 6 years ago?! That's not so long considering how old it is!
They/we will unite I agree, we are seeing it now start to unfold except, as I alluded to in my original post, the various factions in Govt either aren't aligned with Bitcoiners or are pretending to be in line with Bitcoiners to garner their support politically but they will, imo, be on our side until they/we win and at that point they will go off on their own agenda. A good example of this is CBDCs. A similar fracture of a 'united front' against the establishment is Twitter under Musk.
CBDCs: We had Vivek using this as a signif political narrative seemingly in favour of Bitcoiners and freedom lovers alike. But FedNow is already out and as I understand it is very much like a CBDC in effect even though its not coined as such. Trump also got on this band wagon once Vivek was out. Trump will curry favour with anti-CBDC talk, get voted in and then control you and I with FedNow system. They are with us for the revolution but will turn on us when it suits them.
Twitter/Musk: Musk is all 'free speech' in the beginning (Mat Taibi, Twitter files etc) then he hires a very woke manager who continues to censor people and says you can have 'freedom of speech but not necessarily freedom of reach' - ie censorship. See how they garner support then blindside you with a slight variation which effectively does the same thing a pleb would probably want to avoid?
I think there will be a united front of people who align with BTC value (anti war, ant central banking etc) AND the likes of Musk and Trump AGAINST the old guard politicians (think old world banking cartel types like Biden, central bankers etc) except as I have shown Trump and Musk (representative of the new guard) are your friends until they dont need you anymore and then they are out for themselves - narcissistic to a massive degree. It might be best summed up by something like the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Until that enemy is vanquished and we are the enemy.
So, when the united front comes it will win but then it will fracture imo and we will get fucked but in a slightly diff manner than the old guard would have liked.
I have taken this understanding from Whitney Webbs description of factions within the Govt and some other observations made by a friend about the nature of the diff factions. I'm not sure if it makes sense to the reader as its the first time I've expressed it. I only pieced together a few things in the last few days or week or so. Apologies if it in a bit rough in its logic - its sorta complex to get me ol' noggin around!
yeah this is just recreating the existing system...
"Planning, limits, and processes are essential to have down in writing in advance, though. Many people insist "its not needed", a "Gentleman's Agreement" will do. They're the ones who expect to make rules and limits for others whilst obeying none themselves..."
Yeah to me it seems like You would just be recreating society but on a smaller scale. ie just as problematic. If it happened organically then maybe it could work but to plan it. Seems hard.
With new ATH's I humbly request that you ask us to "Bull with me..."🥳
Sound money can be used as reserve in fractional reserve banking and they have more BTC than most. * That means they have more ability to create more fiat (lots of people still accept fiat) than you and that means they have more resources than you in short, medium and long term. That means plebs dead/locked up well before they find themselves under-collateralized again. We'll be able to enjoy our p2p money for a time and outlast many who don't have it but in the end we are out gunned.
* plebs own more BTC collectively than Govt but we aren't organized into one unit like they are so I assume there may not be a way to rally against them.
Sure plebs can still send and receive with no middleman. I'm saying bitcoin as it's owned by govts also via confiscation and companies like Blackrock can use it to rebase their debt and carry on as per.
What part of btc do you think I don't get?
Good luck, always hard to lose weight. I need to do something similar myself!
There is a 'location NIP' int he works I have yet to integrate but its on the list. If we all use that we can share data as well.
One of the future features will allow users to create their own maps of whatever they like so it may fit in with what youre up to but if not the original code for version 1 is open source and written in React Native for Web JS.

When I used to get weak its cos I wasnt eating regularly. The keto, running on fats, makes you less hungry so I would workout when I hadnt eaten in a while. So yeah, eat regularly even if not hungry. The weird period should take around 2 weeks so hopefully youll be out of it soon.
I did keto for about 3 months a few years back. I definitely felt a lack of energy while working out so tour tiredness from walking makes sense. There is an adjustment period of up to weeks as I recall where your body is adjusting from carbs to fats as fuel source. Guessing that had something to do with it also! How long are you doing it for?
"Govt and power has different factions. Crypto probably represents one faction ousting the other. Bitcoin and the rest. It will be used as a way to rebase the USD but will not become a reserve currency IMO. It may be tokenized with other crypto or used to create fiat on top of further.

If youre interested in always knowing where there may be a potential threat to #BTC this podcast with Whitney Webb and Mark Goodwin from BTCMagazine is good to check in with for ways in which BTC could be coopted - not in the technical sense of a 51% attack or anything but more like using it to prop up the USD govt and especially co-opt Lightning with USDT.
I guess the flipside is that BTC is available to everyone - even the US Govt via USDT and treasury support.
