Bitcoin: "I am doing just fine"
"Now I understand, everyone's sh*t is emotional right now." - President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.
To me, it's always been Bitcoin is logical in an illogical world.
Bitcoin is math in a human all emotional world. You can't get upset at addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division or numbers strung together but you can get upset at language, any language, via words strung together.
Try to logically think through this.
Nothing is making sense. Governments (e.g. the USA) print dollars/value gold out of thin air.
We may or may not have any gold in Fort Knox, someone may or may not have stolen the 200K Bitcoin that was the basis for Trump's speeches on Bitcoin. Meaning he would keep it but 'starting from scratch' wasn't on his "Art of the Deal" Buzzword Bingo Card.
The problem isn't with Bitcoin, once again it is with 'We the people.'
Just like it was with FTX. Before FTX I told myself, "I am not going to be greedy, I am done stacking sats." Then FTX, I then doubled what I had. In early November 2024, I told myself, "I am not going to be greedy, I am done stacking sats."
Since November:
- We had the President, Commander in Chief of the the United States of America, launch a Memecoin called $TRUMP, alongside his wife's version called $MELANIA. They are both garbage. (translate as you must, it's all emotion and it's HUGE business.)
- His second in command, Musk, loves a memecoin called $DOGE , even tongue in cheek named his department after it. It's garbage.
- The guy his second in command admires, Javier Milei, Argentina's supposed Bitcoiner who was in a viral video showing how he'd dismantle all the government agencies if elected by pulling them off a whiteboard. In public he wielded a chainsaw. Milei goes on to give Musk a chainsaw. Connect the dots. Then Milei goes and launches a meme/scam coin called $LIBRA (garbage) via the same people who for sure launched $MELANIA and it will come out it was $TRUMP too.
- Then the armpit of the world, North Korea, hacks Dubai and steals $1.4B of Ethereum (garbage). And Ethereum apparently rolled it back, so ridiculous.
How can Bitcoin (logic based) make it in such an illogical world with scammer polticians from the United States Memecoin President to Argentina's Memecoin President?
"Crypto" has an image problem and rightfully so, but Bitcoin does not, but the Crypto scammers have funded the politicians.
You can't fault people for being confused and throwing Bitcoin into the garbage.
Bitcoin is totally superior to the 21,000,000 other alt/memecoins, and we have a massive problem with 160 currencies around the world. Starting with the US Dollar being "the best looking horse in the glue factory."
Like it always has been, after FTX, all the other drama, it's all emotion and illogical but guess what, like a few years back, I am now not done stacking Bitcoin. Putting some real estate up this time. It is going to take me longer but this is all nonsense.
Today, I thought I was done but: "I am going to be greedy, I am not done stacking sats." This is for the next generation, hopefully in 500 years we are not getting dumber as a society and turning into "Idiocracy."
For now, I am simply, "Not Sure."
Logic and Bitcoin will prevail.

Sadly, you take out the strings if people take the time to start the videos at say 5 minutes in or =300
I understand, reputable hospitals don't do that but the bad ones like you say charge $30 a band-aid.
What I don't get is, people spend most of their lives trying to find a trusty mechanic when their cars break down but when it is their body, they go to the closest strip mall or hospital.
I am SUPER happy to pay, completely out of pocket $1500 a month but I do drive a 2007 Truck with 230,000 miles on it and rusty and the other car has dents.
Also, I paid 6 figures when my wife was sick, a ton of bills, but she's alive, best care.
You have to prioritize but to your point, be smart.
I am very familiar with the Healthcare system but as an advocate and BI guy. There are codes out there called DRG codes that do exactly this, have been in place for decades:
Grok:
"DRG Codes:
or Diagnosis-Related Group codes, are a system used in healthcare to classify hospital cases into groups based on similar diagnoses, treatments, and resource use. They’re primarily used for billing and reimbursement purposes, especially in the U.S. under Medicare. Each DRG code represents a category of patient conditions—like, say, pneumonia or hip replacement—and helps determine how much a hospital gets paid based on the expected cost of care. The idea is to standardize payments and encourage efficiency."
OH NO...misfire, you were on X the other day saying you were not going to be on it much and how you never DM people. Then I get this and I think I blasted you the REAL DEAL.
Total honor if you messaged me on here, big fan as you know. Every one of these has been garbage yet, this was you?

Point taken. I do hope Bitcoin will make wars harder to fight if Bitcoin has all the gunpowder and Bitcoin-to-Date the majority
is still made up of individuals.
Lavrov has said since almost day one "Russia didn't invade Ukraine" but called it their "Special Operation." How can the US buy in to this BS going on, don't give in to Lavrov, Don Don, or Putin.
“The web of trust” implies that a fake nostr:nprofile1qqsvf82j54enveujhxnwfpg4slpgqshmyna9vfwx6eace9wgw5dv59gsu6hcp nostr identity wouldn’t get 103 776 followers.
nostr:nprofile1qqsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycs558km , nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgeyqy52, nostr:nprofile1qqsgydql3q4ka27d9wnlrmus4tvkrnc8ftc4h8h5fgyln54gl0a7dgstw3r3l and nostr:nprofile1qqsrhuxx8l9ex335q7he0f09aej04zpazpl0ne2cgukyawd24mayt8g2lcy6q wouldn’t follow a fake nostr:nprofile1qqsvf82j54enveujhxnwfpg4slpgqshmyna9vfwx6eace9wgw5dv59gsu6hcp nostr identity.
The fake hodlonaut nostr identity that contacted you on nostr DM isn’t this nostr:nprofile1qqsvf82j54enveujhxnwfpg4slpgqshmyna9vfwx6eace9wgw5dv59gsu6hcp nostr identity that you’re calling a scammer several times.

I lost interest and moved on
Like the Debt Clock, is there a real time clock showing the debasement of this cash? Perhaps before the next big print.
Because this idiot shilled me a scam in my messages? Hodlonaut doesn't do that.
Your move.

Totally understand and that is where we need the most education on adoption. Americans are way ahead on SOV. We need the rest, especially Africa to get in now, BTC is way better than their currency and to me, one of my favorite "use cases" was for the unbanked and underbanked. And I love seeing people using Bitcoin on Flip phones with the Internet.
Exactly, Saylor has explained the 'Friction' on this a million times. The problem is, right now it is a taxable event. I mean, Saylor had to pay $40M because he couldn't prove he lived 180 days in two different places he owned inside America in one year.
You think he'll be 'zapping fat sats' when so many hate him and some jackass accountant to get his claim to fame will say Saylor owes .00000023 cents of Taxes and give it to the NYT for another lawsuit?
Also, that $7.75 cup of coffee you proudly took videos of buying 4 years ago in ES is now $28 but if you would have used one of the 160 shitty FIAT currencies that same amount would buy you about 1/4 of that same coffee.
Too early to spend, make the tax laws at least understandable?
I tried to do a deep dive on all the main issues here, no traction but it's actually good 'data' if you want to cut/paste stuff: https://bitcoinapolis.blogspot.com/

You can pray for no weeds but grab a hoe. Meaning “thoughts and prayers” are one thing, getting your ass in the middle of helping severely mentally ill is hard. Try it. POW
I wish the FY posts would replace all the GM posts. GM is such low effort, at least the FY posts may require a couple sentences?
Don't get me wrong, I want to love all the NOSTriches on here and give them all a feel good pellet but there is so much to share and learn aside from GM.
So now nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqyv8wumn8ghj7urjv4kkjatd9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wsqzpq35r7yzkm4te5460u00jz4djcw0qa90zku7739qn7wj4ralhe4z6d283f is Satoshi? Pretty interesting post on X but regardless, what a gift Bitcoin, NOSTR, and Ocean are and all supported by Jack.
Hey....could it be?
Don't care, what a legacy regardless and with Ocean, that matters to me when someone supports not junking up the sacred Bitcoin Timechain with garbage non-monetary data/pictures.
HODL first then SPEND (have to ditch the capital gains BS) still a lot of work to do but it has to be coming.
Thanks to all the visionaries. I am pretty pissed off today with an article in my local paper. Had to send this text to my 89 year old 'Masters in Journalism' father.

Regardless of your politics, this is funny. Also everything is pointing to self financial sovereignty.
(Or why Bitcoiners are sleeping fine watching the train wreck.)
