More currency units chasing the same amount of goods and services. Bro, you don’t need to be a genius to know that governments and their printing presses are responsible for inflation.

The more they suppress #Bitcoin, the more explosive the PUMP will be. No force can stop this rocket ship from reaching the moon.

BREAKING: #Bitcoin crashed to levels not seen … TWO WEEKS AGO. Time to panic!

Story time…

I asked Senator Dick Durban if he still thought Bitcoin was “gambling” (referencing a July 2022 letter to Fidelity he co-authored with Senator Warren).

Bitcoin was $20k at the time…

He proceeded to ramble about “crypto ATM scams,” said we need to “clean up our act,” and said bitcoin could “implode tomorrow.”

He also brought up FTX, which is funny because DICK TOOK MONEY FROM SBF…

Generally, he made clear that he thinks Bitcoin is absolutely terrible.

I asked in my question good faith to give him an opportunity to show he’s changed… to show he’s not just a parrot for Warren’s talking points… but he immediately got hostile and visibly angry that we dared to advocate for Bitcoin.

I, and others, tried to respectfully explain where he was mistaken and conflating things done by bad actors that have nothing to do with *Bitcoin*.

But Dick couldn’t be bothered with facts or logic. He shut us down and he refused to talk about Bitcoin further.

Senator Durbin clearly has zero interest in having an honest discussion about Bitcoin, but luckily he is 80 years old.

We can hardly expect an octogenarian politician to grok Bitcoin. But the sad part is, people pay attention to what this guy says… His, and Warren’s, anti-Bitcoin stance drives their supporters away from Bitcoin, and their supporters NEED Bitcoin, even if they don’t know it yet.

What dinosaurs like Dick don’t understand is Bitcoin doesn’t need their permission.

Here for it 🍿

WTF are you on about?

Those bombs are going to Ukraine to defend themselves from an invasion force trying to steal their land and take their stuff.

People get to defend themselves from aggression. It's something to be celebrated.

Signing bombs is so cringe.

Really near the top of the cringe scale in fact. Almost peak cringe.

What’s the best book you read in the past year? #bookstr

Today I visited a school for mentally challenged and disabled kids that didn’t have a lick of AC.

Classrooms do have ceiling fans but they do sweet fuck all when it gets to a certain temperature.

It was 35 degrees + humid today but felt like 42.

That’s like when you open the oven door to check on your chicken.. every time you step outside.

Why was I there?

Well bitcoiners at btccuracao funded the school’s brand new WiFi.

I wanted to see the impact of this donation and speak to a poorer community about their experience with btc.

Btccuraco paid the internet company that installed the WiFi in Sats as part of the donation. It’s one of many grassroots initiatives they undertake to try to show that bitcoin is better money.

The new WiFi is a total game changer for the school and the teachers were tearful explaining how much it has helped them teach, inspire and lead these less fortunate kids.

But it only goes so far.

The solar panels atop the school’s long roof “stopped working” this week.

A govt contractor installed the panels this year as a “go green” initiative.

Long story of govt enraging incompetence short, basically half the school had working WiFi + ceiling fans. Sometimes the electricity simply cuts out.

So one half of the school had classrooms of engaged kids with YouTube access + useful visual aids for the kids in a semi manageable heat

while the other half slowly cooked and tried to read books in the inferno.

My white shirt was wet and transparent by the time I finished the school tour. I was like how the feck are these kids gonna get a chance in life?

I interviewed the head of ICT who was gushing about the new WiFi and was saying how some of the kids can now learn to code with this Minecraft coding thing.

She had the biggest heart. But like many islanders she had been crypto scammed a few years ago and was still really reluctant about bitcoin.

Really saddening because of course no sane person thinks “oh yeah I’m gonna learn about bitcoin now I sold my gold necklace for a crypto thing 5 years ago and never got the money back.”

I managed to send her some sats to say thank you but if I’m honest I think it’s coz I was recording this during the interview.

In all, I left the school utterly humbled and a little bit angry at the world.

I don’t have a nice thing to round off on, sorry.

Bitcoin doesn’t fix everything. And some things utterly suck.

Good morning!

Copy paste this to your preferred non-Nostr social media platform 😅

ETH/BTC is the heartbeat of shitcoins.

what’s the verdict, doc?

If she moves, she moves. #Bitcoin

Despite the launch of the Ethereum spot ETFs, the ETHBTC ratio has hit new lows for this cycle, taking out the prior May low.

Insane how fast #Bitcoin gets bought up

After U.S. ETFs sold more than 5,666k #Bitcoin yesterday, they continue their selling today with 2,728 #Bitcoin.

Looks like too much volatility for the fragile heart of boomers speculating on fiat gains.

#Bitcoin is being redistributed to the true HODLers, which is amazing.
