"Playing with"...

We're only trying to save civilization from an endless revolutionary cycle that has destroyed countless lives over human history, but sure we'll go 'play with' our things.

He's as tone deaf as they come.

Exactly.

I don't know how anyone is selling.

They're clearly lettuce handed tourists and I'll be happy to their coin from them.

He couldn't even be bothered to read the cliffs notes.

And yet there are so many of our community engaging in monumental amounts of cognitive dissonance to justify voting for him.

Depressing really. Predictable. But depressing.

Bitcoin doesn't need governments to win. It doesn't need governments to stack it. It doesn't need to ask for help.

Instead, the bar is much lower. Bitcoiners, in their preferred jurisdiction, would benefit by not being hassled by their government. They'd like to be able to buy it without problems. They'd like to be able to pay for energy and equipment and mine it in peace. They'd like be able to write open source code without facing legal problems. They'd like to be able to operate reputable businesses related to it. If they can't, then some of them will move as necessary.

It's helpful for the ecosystem to have non-hostile jurisdictions in the world. And for those that can't move without great sacrifice (i.e. most people), it's helpful for them that whatever jurisdiction they are in, is non-hostile.

So it's good that bitcoin is getting into the Overton window. The industry has some power now. Bitcoin benefits from builders and educators and advocates. It benefits from those who do their best to prevent the worst legislative outcomes against self-custody, against privacy, against running a business, against mining, etc.

But Bitcoin doesn't need to pander to them to proactively support us, and bitcoiners should recognize the sliminess of politician incentives when they come to pander to us. While it's in their best interest to build national reserves if they actually figure this thing out, we don't need them to build reserves.

I think that's the helpful line. That's where the signal is. To the extent that we minimize how much we are tread on, and build multi-national accepting footholds to pivot around, we gradually build what we want to exist.

We ask to be treated fairly, we use our resources to help ensure that we are, and to the extent that we are not then we adjust as necessary.

Well said.

I would add sunlight exposure to that list, but yup.

Personally did all those things and now have the body and physicality I should had in my 20s but was robbed of by fiat lies.

No more

I moved to Mexico from northern Canada for health reasons and the health benefits of sun have been extremely obvious to me.

I went from chronic mental health issues requiring medication for 25 years, to absolutely no pills and or drugs. It stabilized sleeping patterns, stabilized moods and I have an overall health and well being that I NEVER experienced where I was born and raised.

I suffered from seasonal affective disorder so significant that I was bordering on hospitalization at times and now I live a healthy life medication free. Depression gone, anxiety under control.

But there isn't a doctor I've found who would recommend it.

Yes but historically these two very different asset classes have moved more synchronously and therefore this deviation might indicate a shift in something.

I believe that that is what is being pointed out.

Everyone here is aware that we are comparing two different asset classes. That's just pointing out the obvious.

The nature of our evolved hierarchical social groups.

Most people are more comfortable following than leading.

To change that would be to change the nature of what it means to be human.

I agree. You don't speak the way he did today without having put in the work.

Even if it started off as pandering, Bitcoin has drawn him down the rabbit hole the same way it has every one of us.

To me, he demonstrated proof of work.

Let's see what Trump says tomorrow... I suspect, just given the time frame, he will not have put in the work.
