Long live self custody of private property. Long live the right to have financial privacy and be free to use the tools to make it so.. The idea that governments should be able to surveil all our transactions can go fuck itself.

drunk noted about tax and now am paranoid about being flagged and monitored by spooks.

I am nuking this account. need to drain wallet first. 321 SATs (-fees) to the first person who replies to this note. lots of love. bye y'all.

...in here. So take off all your clothes!

The further we go, the more it is clear, the government should have NO control over the base layer of civilisation itself, MONEY. Civilisation is ORGANIC.

get a pre 2008 car that has a good engine & good bodywork/chassis. A car like that you can learn to maintain it yourself and keep it in good running order for many many years, especially a diesel engine will just keep going.

They: "Don't try and use coinjoin software to evade tax."

We: "How do I declare tax wen I have no record of any transactions, no idea how much fiat I have spent and no record of any trading peers? Your system is too complicated and too confusing and i don't have the time to figure it out while i am working my butt off cos everything costs more now, thanks to your monetary inflation policy. Your (frankly) weird system of putting deliberate, anxiety inducing claims on my self worth, have absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I am trying to preserve my contribution to society across time and protect it from the debasement and devaluation that is caused by the system you say (and expect me to believe) is just, but is really the opposite of just."

Absolutely brilliant and fun, interactive, educational resource! Well played sir!

I don't think it is crazy or over the top to offer privacy tools on bitcoin

The point is to stay solvent in the next few years without needing to rely on your bitcoin stash.

If you manage that, you'll emerge as a sovereign individual with generational wealth, and have a chance to integrate with or shape the new economic paradigm.

If not, then your stash will get you through, and you'll start over with zero instead of negative, which is still something I guess.

It's likely that will be a similar paradigm shift to post WWII, with widespread poverty, rationing, and other challenges. I don't think it will be a dystopian apocalypse but it will feel pretty rubbish in the western world not used to such a rapid drop in comfort levels.

I'm thinking about how sovereign individuals helped to build society in previous generations, in particular the landed gentry and the new industrialists on both sides of the atlantic in the 19th century. It's Andrew Carnegie's "gospel of wealth" and the Lord Shaftesbury types in Britain.

Bitcoiners are already getting started with these kind of projects, but it's something to think about as we enter an era where food, clothing, and shelter will be far more pressing concerns that yachts and lambos. We're having to grow up fast, the age of 69,420 memes is passing and the age of bearing responsbility for the future of humanity is almost here.

PS - Generational wealth may not mean a dragon's hoard, but simply having something in your hand to pass on to the next generation, which they in turn can build on, care for, and pass on again. Generational wealth itself implies training the next generation on the responsibilty that comes with holding, but that's a whole nother story for another time.
