family & friends: "if you keep buying bitcoin you're going to become homeless"

You are going to turn black and marry a hot Jewish girl?
Very cool. We have been in a home fellowship for 20 years
The only news I don't get on nostr is the local drivel and shenanigans my local politicians are up to. It turns out I don't need it, because I know enough people in my town that, eventually I will hear about it.
Guess what I learned from this experience?
These things I had no influence over, I never concerned myself with them, therefore the energy I did have over that time was spent on what really matters to me and mine. That includes my nostr fam.
If there is anything really important someone will either tell me in conversation, send me an email or text, or call me if it's urgent.
Don't worry, no nuclear bombs will go off, and nobody is coming to take your stuff (except the government.)
When I was a kid, I would walk to the corner store and put 25¢ in an arcade machine to play.
Today, I transmit notes and other stuff over relays and I get paid 25¢
You weren't paying attention. Biden was a financial criminal. And yes, I said was.
Do not question whether the CK death was faked. You will never get to the bottom of it, and you do not want to short circuit this movement... Not unless it's being hijacked by someone named Shapiro
That is a very very very very bad date to hold an event like this.
I would welcome my house going down in value, it will drive down property taxes.
A house is an expense. Either you can afford it or you can't. Owning a home changed from being a standard of living to being a luxury.
This is caused by our money system being abused by politics, and a completely failed experiment in "free trade" which turned out to only benefit the most wealthy. Fiat and globalism destroyed jobs and the middle class. Globalism, advocated by corporations, under "free-trade" (we had no tariffs, while everyone else had tariffs against us) simultaneously created behemoths in China and India - natural adversaries who we treated as allies but our loyalty was never and never will be reciprocal.
All the while education and technical worker visas, created at the same time a vacuuming up of a native-born scientific and engineering jobs and its associated nativist influence, was advocated by Wallstreet, large corporations and politicians on both sides being pre-owned by these treacherous business interests, conspired to sell our country out from under our generation.
The "giant sucking sound" findamentally is about American jobs being exported to foreign labor. H1B and other technical work visas is the "giant blowing sound", drying up technical jobs within our borders, the original channel of our country's influence and power, into it being an illegitimate and unregulated freeway for immigration from countries with many times higher population than the United States. This has only one end: the native population becomes the lower class, and every corporation's upper and middle management and engineering departments is composed of only one race, one that was imported originally justified as discount indentured servitude, and one that entirely displaced those who have been here for generations even before the founding.
There is no comparison between renting and owning. They are entirely different ways of life.
What I'm pointing out in the OP is, just because the price is going up doesent mean the value or underlying cost is going up. What is going up is the cost of living, and inflation is driving the value of your wages down, and this is why you can't afford a house. Its not because the cost of housing is going up.
It is safe to say productivity in the US has been largely flat since 2008, this means the value of the "best" companies in the US has also been flat. If you measure the world in terms of S&P500, this breaks the illusion of prices going up, and the reality of our earning power plummeting over the past 20 years.
To measure everything in bitcoin isn't quite fair given its obvious rising value. Bitcoin's value has risen faster than everything else, therefore its an equally, but oppositely, bad measuring stick to diagnose the problem. Oil and energy obviously is a manipulated market, the "value" has continued to decline in order to maintain political control. They are able to do this because the cost of production is marginal compared to value. In other words, the price to the US is mostly arbitrary. This is why the dollar price has been mostly stable.
Food, on the other hand, has gone down in value, while rising in terms of dollars, because we have opened up sourcing food from the globe. Historically that has been impractical due to a lack of preservation technology and a higher cost of transportation both of which are downstream of the cost of energy, this alongside infinite trade deficits and the dollar milkshake effect. All combined competition, it's amazing any food at all can be produced within our borders. This is a testimony to the power of American resilience. But nothing in this world is infinite, other than stupidity the potential for evil.
The bottom line is, financialization of securities and housing, uncontrolled immigration and cloaked corruption of work and education visas has gutted our employment market and driven down wages to the benefit of this same S&P500 group of companies. Therefore, instead of being able to land an entry-level job as an engineer or manager in a large company, we are left to reorganize shelves at the supermarket or carry boxes for UPS if we are lucky enough to find a job at all.
It is not theft or slothfulness to invest in bitcoin and for you and your
descendants to reap the benefits because
bitcoin destroys the mechanism by which all of mankind is presently
being drained of their time, their lifeblood and their inheritance.
You think real estate is an investment?
Charlie Kirk, like so many who shed blood for his homeland and its constitution, died standing on American principles and spoke with the spirit of truth.
He wasn't just murdered or assassinated, he was a Christian who was martyred for boldly wielding our right of free speech.

No, the airplanes were fake. The death could be faked, just like Trump's earshot. It's alsonpossibke his pinky folded in and its a video compression artifact
Do you remember the core team pushing press about "needing to support core devs" about a year ago? Do you think a massive slush fund under their control would have made this problem better or worse?
How did they fake 9/11 with thousands of people and cameras watching it happen, millions watching on TV?
Just in case you happen to read this and are afraid of guns: I have been carrying a semiautomatic high capacity firearm for 30 years everywhere I go and it has never compelled me to kill anyone, nor has any of the four models I possess, ever discharged unless I have commanded them to do so.
Guns are a tool.
If you shoot children, you are a tool.
If you think "taking away guns" will change anything, you are a tool.
If you think the police will protect you, just ask one, they will tell you to protect yourself - with a gun.
The notion of microservices is a lazy event pipelining architecture. It's better to just use a RTC microkernel framework inside your application and break out scalable pieces with proxy placeholders or a pub-sub rally point like over zmq or redis.
No use giving up on the country because you can't convince politicians on the other team your way of thinking. They are too financially invested in not seeing your viewpoint.
I helped a fellow nostr:nprofile1qqs9mus73mq3ug08kug2cltvj3p8gpawd85n5l70p59rach6cn7usjcpp4mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7tcpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7mlnsyp member install nostr:nprofile1qqs9g69ua6m5ec6ukstnmnyewj7a4j0gjjn5hu75f7w23d64gczunmgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43q4gnztg yesterday. He's capable and committed, but not particularly technical. When it came to installing FOSS apps, I explained F-Droid, Obtainium, and nostr:nprofile1qqs83nn04fezvsu89p8xg7axjwye2u67errat3dx2um725fs7qnrqlgzqtdq0, along with hunt-and-find YOLO-style APK downloads, each with their attendant tradeoffs.
He ruled out F-Droid on technical deficiencies.
He tried Obtainium and understandly struggled with the complex, poor UX.
He was uncomfortable with trusting seemingly random downloads.
He tried Zapstore and succeeded, app after app.
UX matters much more than most developers can seem to wrap their heads around. We do not get broad adoption without it. Fin.
The downfall is when you need shit apps like LinkedIn, zoom, and your banking app. You even need play store for nostr:nprofile1qqsvn0dkjt80raqrxd470c98n7zrdehmcvj6p5hgw3kyku6zyd8z0fqp2emhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtmwwp6kyvt5xdmhxem2xek8vcmkxqmnyemrwdk8ymtjvc6ny7nhdf3njun4xg6ns7f4xc6nw735xenxsunrxfnxwdnkw948wwrpdq6q3e6v3t

Exactly. Social media is only as valuable as the content flowing through it. If it’s saturated with original thought (smart people making smart points) the “dopamine hit” isn’t just a notification, it’s the acquisition of valuable information. The poster gets rewarded with zaps, likes, and reposts; the reader gets rewarded with insight; and the bystander gets rewarded by having something worth engaging with.
Critical mass happens when credible voices (whether MSM-promoted or established elsewhere) decide to only show up here. That exclusivity draws in their peers, and eventually the “normies” orbit around them. It’s the Trump-on-Twitter effect, but without a central choke point.
Nostr has already crossed a credibility threshold: Jack Dorsey, Ken Berry, Lyn Alden, and others continue posting here not out of novelty but because the community is intelligent, principled, and aligned on Bitcoin. That foundation ensures higher-than-average discourse and resilience. From there, growth becomes inevitable. Bitchat is a preview; Nostr will outgrow the Bitcoin circle simply on the merits of being uncensorable, open, and frictionless to adopt.
Happy Proof of Work Day
