Begone centralization

We’re moving into a world with borderless money.

Let that sink in. What are borders for exactly?

What does the imaginary line in the sand mean? How can people on one side of a river be Americans, and on the other side they’re Mexicans? They share the same river.

Borders are how nation states define their taxable jurisdiction. The jurisdiction within which they deploy their monopoly on violence.

If American is to remain what it set out in principle to be (The bastion of freedom where the individual reigns supreme due to inalienable rights bestowed by God… our concepts of “borders” may have to change. We have to embrace freedom of movement. It is clear the state must be diminished in its influence in the lives of the individual, the constitution and Declaration of Independence make this clear.

We must evolve. Americans and Mexicans are all individuals, and within this jurisdiction, individuals have inalienable rights bestowed by God.

Average closing price of gold in 1990 is about $383. Which means gold has increased in fiat price by about 5.28x since then.

5.28x $19.83 = $104.70

Gold has adequately protected purchasing power (in Kevin’s case, it has grown it relative to his expenses, not counting capital gains tax)

Hard money works. Bitcoin is accomplishing what gold has for thousands of years, but it’s using technology and network effects to serve that purpose in a way which is orders of magnitude more effective from a purchasing power perspective.

Freedom tech needs a freedom device. I feel like the non-android + non-IOS options are severely limited, and as such there can be no meaningful adoption of alternatives.

Freedom needs an open source device with open source software to interact with an open source App Store. I don’t have the means/ability to build this reality, but I know you see merit in this endeavor and hope you and your connections with those than can build this recognize this need and act upon it.

Praying for you my dude

I mean, that’s just code though right? Theoretically if employees were robbing people I’m sure there’s a workaround.

Hmm, maybe just having your family all have satellite phones then? Honestly it seems like you basically have to take yourself back to the stone age to enjoy the privacy that people in the 80s used to enjoy

In your opinion, what is the likelihood for a malicious actor to steal your bitcoin from the bitkey, particularly an employee of block. They have a key, and another key is on your phone which I assume is hackable? Seems like your money is toast if Google/apple and block were to conspire, no?

He ain’t gonna close down that throat though

The Middle East and Russia are behind when it comes to hashrate but given their massive energy reserves, this won’t be the case for long. The hashrate will become more globally distributed over time but will centralize amongst those with the greatest energy density

I guess it’s censoring in the same way you don’t let little kids run around saying fuck

It is technically but small children shouldn’t be saying fuck ya know?
