Sorry Marty, but this is a terrible take. If we want to have the presence of mind to successfully navigate what's coming, it will be much better NOT to be inebriated.
Bitcoiners are long human flourishing. We say "Bitcoin doesn't need you, you need Bitcoin," but I disagree. Bitcoin doesn't just need us, Bitcoin is us. Every Sat you own represents a hope that the human race will choose a better path.
Hello everyone, I live in Washington State. I was using Phoenix, then Mutiny... Any suggestions for a good lightning wallet to move to?
People who want power will always try to control those who truly possess it.
The invention of scarcity in the informational realm is perhaps the greatest achievement of mankind to date.
Time to say goodbye to the philosophy that states "nothing means anything," and say hello to the philosophy that states "everything means something. "
Our memories live downstream from us in an inorganic sequence of events which we (and bitcoin) swim against to stay alive.
Bitcoin solves the game of "telephone" that you played in kindergarten where everyone whispers something in to their neighbor's ear, and by the time it makes it's way around the circle, the message is different. With bitcoin, at the end of the day, or the year, or the century, messages are the same.

Don't understand. Did you think about what I said? Seems pretty knee-jerky
Hi everyone! This is my first Nostr post. Somehow just the existence of this place provokes deep thought.
My daughter recently explained to me that "First- all of this was in the future, right?"
This logic has proven to be too difficult for me to dismiss, and I now believe that it is probable that the universal sequence of events moves towards the past, not the future.
Time is not sequential, it is relative. We don't really use it to determine an accurate sequence of events, but rather just to help us keep a semblance of order that we exist within and thrive.
With all of this in mind I would suggest the possibility that life was born as an effort to escape the inevitability of an impending and universal past.
Bitcoin is the first verifiable movement against this sequence. It doesn't just swim against the stream, it is its own stream.
