Agreed. Especially when we’re in a sovereign debt crisis where massive amounts of dollars need to be created. I hear so many people parroting this bubble bursting doomer talk. In my opinion, a massive prolonged melt up with brief periods of crisis that are quickly plugged with liquidity is most likely. Of course, this is all from a fiat lens. The fiat melt up is a global collapse when priced correctly in BTC.

BOOMERS GONNA BOOM

Not really. The enforcement seemed to focus on larger holders and businesses which complied. For me, the lesson is that threats at the barrel of a gun will force enough voluntary self-regulation for centralized powers to maintain their desired control. Makes you wonder about those Bitcoin Treasury Company honeypots as we go through this fourth turning 👀

Legendary JRE clip. The opportunity cost of that acid purchase is now $6.2 million lol

Censorship resistance plus openness/interoperability is what makes Nostr the foundation for all future peer-to-peer interaction. What a world it will be.

Thanks for sharing this.

I believe Bitcoin’s most powerful feature is that it gives the individual a binary choice this fourth turning. Option 1: Your entire existence will be at the permission of the state; confined within the walls of a digital prison so that your resistance to their authority is no longer a human problem, but a software problem. Your dissent will be quashed on demand by removing your ability to speak, transact or store value for yourself with the click of a button. Option 2: You adopt Bitcoin in a self-sovereign way and peacefully declare that you will not participate in their tyranny. You understand that whoever controls the money, controls the population. And you control your private keys, so you cannot be controlled. Once you’ve made this binary choice, every downstream action you take will either be in service of a permanent global digital panopticon OR freedom and abundance for the individual. Each individual that chooses self-sovereignty meaningfully helps deter the tyrannical dystopia that is lurking around the corner. #Bitcoin #Nostr

Amen

Amen, Marty. My wife and I spent two weeks in Italy last month and it reminded us how jarring the American aesthetic has become. Soul crushing to be honest. Bitcoin will help heal this though.

100%. Fiat robbed humanity of the benefits of the greatest technology progression ever. The good news is we now have Bitcoin for the real technology boom. The age of A.I.

YES. That keynote was beautiful. A forceful reminder that we’re not crazy.

We never were. There is no bear. There is no bull. Only adoption.

If these posts are a mood board for Cason HODL 2028 I’m all about it

Hey - Do you think Saylor is a net good at this point for Bitcoin? Or just neutral now? For me, the idea of him Trojan horsing hyperbitcoinization loses more credibility every day.

Agreed. A.I. will accelerate the enrichment of Bitcoin holders because Bitcoin is a free market that allows technology advancement to create price deflation and increase purchasing power. On the contrary, A.l. will accelerate the impoverishment of fiat holders. Because the fiat system cannot have deflation, technology advancement means that larger and larger amounts of money must be printed to counteract its deflationary pressure.

Shitcoiners are into Bitcoin too, man. They’re just into YOUR Bitcoin 🎯🎯

Hang in there and keep marching forward

Every new node added to the network, both technical and cultural, makes the former obsolete and the latter inevitable. We are going to win.

GM. That’s a wonderful start to a day there 🙌🏻

Enjoying this discussion and looking forward to more like it. My wife and I hope to start a family soon. Becoming a Bitcoiner over the last few years made me realize I wasn’t thinking critically for myself at all up until now and was being indoctrinated along with the masses. Trying to reconcile these transformative few years for myself with what was an indoctrinated life until then has me a bit terrified of how to get it right for our kids. Will definitely be picking up ‘s book!

1000%

lol that’s awesome. Bitcoin’s power to align incentives in a positive direction never ceases to amaze me.

GM Nostr, How did I know my wife was the one? On our 5th date she told me her dream was to be gifted a Porsche Cayenne like Tony gave Carmela. That was the moment I knew. But today, at this very moment, we’re heading to church in a 2012 Honda beater because she believes hodling is more important. I’m a lucky man. #Bitcoin #HODL
