The Sauce is strong with this one.

At an atomic level there is no difference. But at a funeral you're dead.

Some people are free to roam wherever they please, yet are still prisoners of their own minds.

Once you become a master of your own mind, you become genuinely free, whether in a prison or on top of a remote mountain.

Is your computer a tool to liberate and protect you, or is it being used to control you?

If the latter, what can you to change the situation?

If you take a person's body and reduce it to its constituent parts - water (70%), minerals (copper, potassium, iron, etc) and sell those on the open market, I think the value of a human is about $15 these days.

However, I think most people see the value of a human not for their physical value but their metaphysical value.

Schiff talking about gold's physical utility value is like a wife taking about her husband's physical utility value.

Call me naive, but I'd like to think that most (not all) women would not value their husbands on those terms.

Because I am a Bitcoiner.

I have dedicated all my life to computer science and the investment world. I have always had a lot of intellectual curiosity about any subject, which led me to read a lot about Austrian economics, I soon understood that the system was a scam, but at that time there was no Bitcoin.

I lived at first the birth of Bitcoin, but I did not pay much attention to it, I thought it would not be successful, electronic money, that is hackable I thought.

Soon after, some events happened that marked my destiny forever, I lost what I loved most by negligence of the system, I was helpless and alone, after this being in absolute shit, the system attacked me again and tried to steal what was mine.

After years of litigation I won, but I never got a pardon, I was never compensated nor did I recover the losses that the whole process caused me.

All this process was accompanied by a deep depression, I abandoned everything, friends, family, hobbies, but I never abandoned the desire for revenge and the desire to learn, and in those moments of shit a light went on, Bitcoin embraced me.

After 4 years of fighting alone against myself, without medication, without help, I could get out of depression, I could get out of that shit hole, but I came out much stronger, I was no longer the same person, and also someone accompanied me throughout the process, Bitcoin.

I think that fucking algorithm helped me more than anything else in the world, it made me understand many things, it made me understand that at the end of everything, you are the master of your destiny, never expect help from anyone, always check, never trust, and it also made me be patient, perseverant and hardened me. It made me become a man, a man has the obligation to defend his own, a man must endure the blows and has the obligation to stand up and fight, until the last day.

I have never been one to tell my intimacies, but I am a Bitcoiner and I will die a Bitcoiner, this is my story and it will be written here forever.

And maybe this story will be useful for times of adversity like the ones we are living, fuck the system, the system will not help you, in the worst case the system will kill you, fight with all your soul against it.

'...fighting alone against myself'. When you throw the idea of yourself in the trash can, and with it revenge and hate, peace and contentment are there. (Not suggesting anyone throw themselves in the can. That would be bad. It's the idea of who we are - that's not really us, so not taking it too seriously can have immense benefits).

"..if one were to be shot with an arrow, it would be quite painful, and if that person were to get shot again in the same spot, it would be even more excruciating.

The first arrow is the inevitable discomforts and difficulties that present themselves in our lives that aren’t in our control—the first level of [suffering] - but the second one is our reaction to the first, and this is something we can learn to see clearly and let go of, hence reducing or eradicating completely the second level of [suffering]"

Sounds like you're becoming freer and happier. Well done. Keep going!

My latest talk with nostr:npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5m about the next catalyst for major corporations to adopt #Bitcoin, regulatory developments, tokenization, fed policy and deficit, and Bitcoin from 2024-2040.

It’s only 25 min… give it a listen 👇🏼

ETFs, megacorps, regulation and sophisticated surveilliance ('accounting software') systems are going to save bitcoin and lightning. Thanks plebs. Bitcoin belongs to us now.

Gotta admit. That was a pretty good rebuttal.

You always come across with class and professionalism. Not like a bitcoiner at all.
