Jordan Peterson is wrong because freedom of speech alone cannot protect you from armed government intent on silencing you.
Rights are not asserted. They are defended, actually defended, with force, if necessary. 
Like those people who bought at $500 in Nov 2013 and it was still $500 in May 2016. I wonder if we’ll look back on it the same way?
Personally, I think it must have been harder for them. They didn’t have the extended price history that we have. They must have seen the big spike to 1000 then thought everything was over when it dropped to $500.
I suspect our boredom will be over soon. Then we’ll be back in the “I can’t focus on work” phase.
I thought it was fake at first. April already? Didn’t he just lose big time in the UK? Honestly don’t get it. 🤷♂️
It’s hard for me to see your point. People are flocking to ETFs. I talk to wealthy people all the time and they don’t “get” the benefits of being sovereign. I just shake my head. It’s all I can do. They vaxxed their children too. Go figure.
Of course, I expect they’ll figure it out eventually.
When they do, I still don’t see the issue. Bitcoin L1 isn’t going to choke to death. Fees will be similar to wire transfers. Payments for our morning coffees will move to ecash. Every few months we’ll transfer from funds from cold storage to a few mints to top up our spending money.
The sad fact is that most people trust the government, trust banks, and generally trust authority. When told, they inject their children and themselves with experimental genetic therapy. They follow the American Heart Association’s advice and wonder why they’re fat and unhealthy. Etc.
Even the few who don’t trust authority are scared to be their own bank. They know they forget their passwords all the time.
Very few people are willing and capable of being sovereign individuals.
I wish it were otherwise but most people need a custodian. I’m bullish on systems like Fedimint. Local custodian managed by people you know.
The people who are surprised by bitcoin don’t understand Gresham’s / Thiers law.
Yes, some early folks believed that it was just P2P currency. Nope. It’s mildly amusing to see them dump their coins in disgust.
Ya gotta understand the process.
Store of value <— you’re here
Medium of exchange
Unit of account
At some point it will move to the next level and be a medium of exchange. No point in getting upset that it isn’t there yet. We’re making good progress.
I’ve always believed it was probably Len Sassaman.
😆 too funny! BBC launches website in pidgin.
I’m not quite ready to dig in but will eventually. Will be watching your feed for any tidbits you throw out. 🙏
I was thinking there might need to be some magic to make it usable. Maybe a framework to mange mints, balance discovery, transfers, persistence, etc. 🤷♂️
If you find or build any rust APIs for integrating ecash into apps, let me know please. Thinking about a future project. 🙏
A crime against humanity and yet nobody will be held accountable.
Even at the VP debate. No mention. Both parties responsible so they want you to forget it ever happened.

Men playing in women’s sports ends once the ladies boycott.
Glad to see that happening now.
Just saw this email. August 2020. What couldn’t the head of the NIH talk about on email? Something about Ecohealth and Wuhan.
Perhaps it was about the wet market where the virus would be discovered the next month?
This email wouldn’t exist if the virus was natural. But this email does exist. 
Yep, that’s why I got rid of mine. They actually give off a surprisingly high amount of EMF radiation incredibly close to your head. Sure it’s non-ionizing radiation but the long term health impacts are not clear (and obvs nobody wants to pay to study it). Didn’t want to take the risk.
College is now a shitcoin. If I had a choice between hiring a Harvard grad or someone with work experience and references, I would hire the latter every time.
Yes, you need a degree for government licensed careers, but those are now political and soul destroying.
Better to teach yourself with the free information online and then volunteer to gain experience. Do a good job and watch how doors open for you.
