FUCK NO. NOT FOR ONE FUCKING MINUTE.

You have to fuckin' send it. DCA is fine but reality is now is always best in the long run, but who knows maybe its going to zero and my wife is gonna leave me for Schiff

Just smash buy, keep eating ramen with an egg in it

Think directionally.

BTC will be $250K++++++++ in 2025 & over $1mm by 2030.

Buy a whole coin. Move it to cold storage. Forget about it for 5 years.

Smile every day you go to work knowing you have a 5 year plan that will dwarf everyone you know on scales that will be hard to comprehend.

Oh & DCA what you can on the $40K you earn. Keep your expenses very low.

First I make a budget ignoring the 100k and assess actual needs for capital outlays like do I need new clothes to try to get that better job? Is my car about to die? Assuming nothing and money left over at the end of each week, it's all going into fuckin' bitcoin (speaking for myself here not financial advice). Bottom line is if you have goals that have been held back by lack of liquidity, fix that first, then save your damn money.

Pay my rent from the 100k for a whole year buy bitcoin with the rest and go to work and every week pay check is for bittys

Oof, I'm so sore... Haven't had this much soreness in months.

Bitcoin is going to win. Nostr is going to win. It’s inevitable. I’ll see to it with my last dying breath that anyone standing in the way is defeated. The boomers and the dinosaurs picked the wrong fking generation to mess with. They gave us shit growing up and we ignored patiently and now we’re here, laying the new law. Get on the train or gtfo, the choice is simple. Everyone else will be steamrolled, no mercy.

This is our time. Move out of the way!

I’m going to be surprised if we make it to $150,000

I'm too scared to multisig

Good morning every pleb🫂☀️

Don’t discredit drug addicts since you feel superior since ‘you know’ better because you’re “sober”.

i look @ everything thru a LoveLenz * it's has helped me tremendously/*****All the best fren

I notice that people are starting to address a whole lot of individual people as, "Bitcoiner."

My name is not, "Bitcoiner," it's Beejay. I am a real person, just like you... a distinct individual with nuances and layers, and who enjoys all kinds of things besides using an alternative currency. Yes, I'm happy to be part of building the counter-economy, but I'm busy with lots of different things, people, and conversations. I refuse to be identified as a blob moniker.

if it's not a win/win deal walk away - due diligence + it Adds uP

In defense of developer depression:

Reflecting on my journey in Bitcoin over the last decade, I've come to realize that I've achieved success where a lot of other developers have failed.

Ironically, one of the biggest issues I'm still dealing with is that I may have succeeded too much. As a developer, you must understand that unfortunately, most people you’ll end up working with will not want you to succeed. The majority will simply want you to code what is needed for their success… and then go away. Disappear.

The core problem for you is that creating anything great requires deep coding focus for extended periods. You also need to constantly iterate on the product while ensuring it gains traction. Many developers mistakenly believe they can do both.

The hard truth is that you shouldn’t be doing this. You shouldn’t have to choose which part to handicap – your developer skills or the reach of the product you’re building.

Don’t fall for the false dilemma. Instead, find trusted collaborators who allow you to stay in a state of deep focus. Look for people who, once you create something that generates enormous amounts of value, won’t take your contributions for granted or betray you by claiming all the rewards for themselves.

My own immense success… it’s depressing to know that it had more to do with other people than myself. Yes, of course, I worked hard for it. I honed my craft for over 25 years. Studied computer science and led engineering at numerous startups. Stayed humble, while churning out commits for decades. But every time it came down to the wire, none of that mattered. What truly mattered was whether certain people recognized my contributions and stood up for my proof of work… or not.

So, if you are a developer – knowing that even in best-case scenarios you’ll depend on the goodwill of others is soul-crushing. You absolutely should be depressed.

But then recognize that the way out of that depression is through long-term commitments with others who resonate with the coding journey you’re on. Only surround yourself with trustworthy people. There is a reason that 4-year vesting schedules are standard in startups. For you and your code to truly succeed - you have to be part of long-term efforts with significant upside.

Anything less – and you’re setting yourself up for failure. You don’t want to create a routine where you daily force yourself into states of deep focus, only to see that after a couple of years of building, you’re defeated by an inferior product that has better marketers at the helm. You also don’t want to lose your technical competency in building political and promotion skills… this world needs more developers, not more politicians.

Observe your depression, but don’t succumb to it. In most cases, it correlates with how deeply you care about your craft. It’s a hint – that the way forward is with others. So, don’t fight your feelings, but follow them to find trusted collaborators who will help you realize the best version of the product you’re coding.
