Bitcoin is hope for a better future!

I understand why for some people it´s a high entry to install an app like Amethyst/damus/primal so I think it´s important to engage on multiple front like sending links(web UI) to friends with messenger/signal/telegram/WhatsApp, who are not ready to have an account yet.

Engage with both bitcoiners and prebitcoiners

Nostr has a big advantage that you can view content without the need of an account or app.

I don´t understand why some people want to push so hard for OP_CAT and CTV. As a non bitcoin developer, until now nobody can explain what advantage it could or will bring for a normal bitcoiner. If some body could please explain it very simple.

Gave my new talk about #Bitcoin & Human Rights at nostr:npub1uv2tr83c5y7k82af6zdzlqs8m0klcmndd8u5vmlg2eyrskld6uzsv4rmr8 recently.

I think it’s one of the most underrated topics in Bitcoin.

If we lose censorship resistance and non KYC, we end up with a 21 million PayPal. Nice for the NgU people but definitely not a tool for sovereignty and freedom against authoritarianism.

Some Ngu people will learn it from others but a lot will learn it the hard way from losing money that is in a trusted 3th party(etf or custodian)

I think most will learn it out of selfish reasons and not necessary from altruistic reasons.

Not your keys not your bitcoin =>Ngl people

Ps I like your altruistic work Anita, keep going 🤗

Other ways to minimize fear

- Keep bitcoin in coldstorage (#seedsigner or #coldcard Q)

- Run your own node or have at least some family or friend who runs it

- Keep mainstream ´News´ to the minimum

- Have a plan to hold your bitcoin for at least 4 years no matter what (expect to have drops of 50-80% in fiat terms don´t try to trade just buy more when it happens or hold and stay calm)

Best articles debunking most fears about #bitcoin :

“Bitcoin wastes energy”

“Governments can ban Bitcoin”

“Bitcoin is not backed by anything”

Greed is also one of the most common things that helps to attract new people in to bitcoin. No one knows what the price exactly will be in the future but very likely much higher in every fiat nominaties.
