News & stories about Bitcoin & decentralization

“You would need to create a stronger meme” was my answer, when someone asked me how to create a better ‘bitcoin’, while I was helping a fintech understand Bitcoin and why it’s not crypto this week. So, the fact that Bitcoin is a meme is now a meme itself(:

There’s also a cool video version: https://youtu.be/jQfowtEfbFY

It fits well among the five stages of grief by banks, discussed by Andreas exactly 8 years ago, on March 17:

Exactly 8 yrs. ago, on March 17, Andreas Antonopoulos delivered a talk on #Bitcoin & the #Banks - 5 Stages of Grief:

🙈Denial: BTC? Nothing to see here!

😡Anger: BTC is for terrorists!

🤡Bargaining: Blockchain, not BTC

😭Depression: Everyone hates banks

🙏Acceptance: Please buy BTC, madam

A good week to relisten this talk and reflect on where we (well, banks) are now.

I was thinking exactly the same today. It would be great to get more data on how btc performed in similar situations. My guess - worse. As understanding of both Bitcoin and the fiat system improves across the society, btc should shine better and better. But it takes more time than we can stay solvent lol

An opportunity for a Nostr audience-focused clown world newsletter? You know, in case there’s a new war, taxes, or cool series on Netflix

When you don't have enough data but you do have enough data.

In 1971, consumerism-focused Andy Warhol creates this piece, called Electric Chair.

Also in 1971, the US dollar loses all its gold, starting to rely on a shared hallucination even more.

In 2009, antihallucinogen enters the system.

Haha yeah, maybe something ultrasound then.

But wait, humans can’t hear it! That’s why eth’s ultrasound money marketing campaign flopped ☝🏻
