Stop searching for yield.

You are the yield my dawg.

Bitcoiners know that individuals are easily corruptible, and yet they have faith in humanity as a whole.

Remember that feeling when you were a child, and the world seemed to be a wonderful place full of possibilities?

You were full of hope and had many dreams; everything seemed possible.

As you grow older, you learn about the numerous atrocities committed throughout history and even today.

Every day, so many people are economically exploited by others, leading to a great amount of suffering.

You start to feel hopeless, frustrated and overwhelmed, thinking that you, as a small part of the world, might not be able to do anything about it.

Then, you learn about the crucial role money plays in allowing that exploitation, wars, and tyranny, specifically fiat money controlled by corrupt individuals.

You begin questioning what money truly is and how broken the current fiat world has become.

You realize why Bitcoin was created and start going down the rabbit hole, learning all the details about how it achieves the goal of being the best form of money humankind has ever seen.

And then... an incredible thing happens in your mind.

That amazing, childlike feeling of wonder and endless possibilities returns.

You start to feel hope again and believe that one person using the right tools can make a significant difference in the world.

Once that happens, your life is completely transformed.

Your priorities change – low time preference – and you start evaluating how you spend your time, professionally, for instance.

You begin to think about how you can use your time in a way that not only increases bitcoin adoption but also contributes, even in a small way, to fixing the problems you see in the world.

You understand why proof-of-work is critically important, not only in securing the Bitcoin network but also in every small detail of life and interactions between people.

Hardworking individuals shouldn't have their savings for the future stolen by parasites, exploiters, and those who avoid work at all costs.

Bitcoin is a tool in this peaceful war against laziness.

Bitcoin enforces an ethical and fair world for people who embrace work as proof of their livelihood.

Zapped!

Central banks are causing more volatility than they are preventing.

Does their inability to forecast or curtail inflation mean they are failing before our eyes?

Life hack: Keep a running list of your mistakes. Seriously.

The longer the list, the more likely you have lived a full and interesting life.

And you will probably be a more humble person for it...

Even wise.
