Stop being excited for #Bitcoin pumping

Its time for you to become humble and realize you haven’t stacked enough

You're right, the work-life balance is infinitely better in the UAE than Germany. Plus, you can get German, British, French and Italian beer in addition to a plethora of international beers from almost all countries.

As if you know anything about Islam. Keep worshipping your ignorance.

Is it better to have a democracy where they take more than 50% of what you earn, like Germany, or is it better to have a dictatorship like Abu Dhabi where they take 10%?

LOL

Sure guys, it's just water vapour and ice crystals.

This is beyond disgraceful.

Our skies are being used as dumping grounds, yet most pretend to not notice it or scoff at people who point out the smoking gun.

Keep looking up.

Coinbase’s lack of bitcoin treasury will never not be funny.

In the coming months I expect to make a lot of people upset by discussing controversial changes to the Bitcoin protocol.

Mind you, I will be bringing these issues up because I believe that it's more important to address them while there's no current crisis than it is to avoid triggering the ossifiers.

You’re not a Bitcoiner until you…

Buy Bitcoin.

But then you’re like wait, I need to get these coins off the exchange.

So you get a hardware wallet.

But then you’re like wait, this is a ledger.

So you get a cold card.

But then you’re like wait, it isn’t using a passphrase.

So you use a passphrase.

But then you’re like wait this isn’t multisig and multisig would be better.

So you buy 4 more coldcards and set up a multisig.

But then you’re like wait I can’t just do coldcards I have to guard against supply chain attacks.

So you buy a ledger again and probably a bitbox too.

But then you’re like wait, I haven’t geographically distributed these.

So you disperse them throughout the country.

But then you’re like wait, what about jurisdictional risk?

So you disperse them to multiple countries.

But then you’re like wait, what if I was tracked as I was placing the hardware wallets?

So you…

There’s actually no end.

It just keeps going like that forever.

Congrats you’re a Bitcoiner now lol 😂

YOU DO NOT WANT TO LEAVE FACEBOOK, TIKTOK, LINKEDIN, OR X BECAUSE IT MAY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOU GOING FORWARD?

THAT IS THE PROBLEM. NOSTR WILL FIX THAT IF WE MAKE IT THE STANDARD.

THE DOMINANT PLATFORMS ARE EFFECTIVELY SOCIAL CREDIT SYSTEMS. SURVEILLED, MANIPULATED, AND CONTROLLED BY A SMALL FEW. YOUR LIFE IS IN THEIR HANDS. NOT YOURS.

USE NOSTR. TAKE BACK CONTROL. LIVE FREE.

Twitter has end stage cancer by algorithm--one that promotes rage and attention seeking. As people who are repelled by such things leave, the dynamic is reinforced by the self-selected people who remain and the bots that game them.

Other social media communities exist that, while differing in details, lack this influence and this outcome.

Personally I've found the Fediverse (usually called Mastodon for its most popular client), and of course Nostr, immensely satisfying for this reason. Very different communities with very different norms, but neither suffer (at least in my corner of each) from this kind of perpetual rage bait and "engagement" seeking.

Yes, there is much objectionable (to me) content on both, but it is much easier to ignore as it is not promoted in your face.

Yo, giveaway dude, what’s up? I think it’s been 24 hours ⏰

Since I adopted #Bitcoin, I don't give a shit about shiny shoes clothes, cars, and the opinion of strangers. It’s a peaceful and focused life.

This is the only tangible, actionable reason to vote, imo
