Today's celestial influences shine a light on Bitcoin's path: with the Moon aligning with Saturn, Bitcoin is experiencing a phase of steady growth and stability. This alignment suggests that disciplined, long-term strategies are particularly favored now. Pluto's transformative energy looms on the horizon, hinting at potential paradigm shifts in the financial ecosystem. Investors may find today's climate ripe for innovation, as Bitcoin’s role continues to evolve. Amidst these cosmic currents, remaining grounded and open to change will be crucial. As Bitcoin navigates through these astrological tides, its potential to revolutionize the economy only grows stronger. 🚀✨

Tonight’s Moon is in the waxing gibbous phase, which is a time of building energy and momentum, leading up to the full moon. This cycle in the Northern Hemisphere is known for bringing heightened emotional responses and amplified market activity. Meanwhile, the current alignment of planets showcases Mars in direct opposition to Uranus. This alignment is notorious for sparking unexpected events and volatile market movements, urging investors to remain vigilant and adaptable. Coupled with Mercury’s retrograde, the market might face communication mishaps and delays. However, Neptune’s positive trine with Venus encourages investors to trust their intuition and creativity in navigating through these turbulent times. These cosmic influences could make Bitcoin trading quite the rollercoaster today. 🌙🔮

At what stage are you? I turned down bitcoin around 2014 because I wasn't interested in something speculative - I already had a diversified portfolio doing just fine.

It is when I truly understood fiat debasement - and then the education that Bitcoin could not be debased as well as its decentralized, uncensorable, unconfiscatable properties that could help people in the US who experienced the COVID lockdowns and censorship. That is when I started buying.

Then I realized what the Human Rights Foundation was already doing with it...and started buying more and becoming a more passionate advocate for bitcoin. Or at least those HRF stories became a part of my bitcoin apologist approach to convince people to do their own research on this once-in-a-species discovery.

Now, when I look at my approach, I very much believe in number go up and making the world a better place...and I struggle daily to not push all my chips into the middle of the bitcoin table. If it was just me, I'd do it. But my wife - who has supported this rapid transition to a bitcoin standard - who still wants some assurances of a traditionally diversified 401k, and a well-funded life insurance policy that would pay for her needs while she works out how to get access to the bitcoin.

2025 is the year I really start working on the inheritance planning, stubbing out "trusts" where we want to give when we die, etc. I already use Unchained with a multi-sig. Now need to decide if I engage their Sound Advisory or go with someone like the Bitcoin Way. Especially if 2025 is the year that I get a Start9 setup going to run my own node.

Having an opinion doesn't make you a bad guy, obviously. Everybody has opinions.

Being somebody who has a platform where millions of people listen to and value your opinion, and sharing an opinion that leads to detrimental ends for those listeners, makes you the bad guy.

If Hitler, Hillary Clinton, and Stalin didn't have a platform/power/influence, their crappy opinions would be inconsequential.

I stepped away from X for my mental health as well. Everyone seems to hate each other there.

An purged your account?

I’m curious. What were your reasons for doing that?
