They probably wouldn't be in jail if we live on the bitcoin standard. The fiat system is the cause of many problems in the world.

This is why Bitcoin matters.

That's why it's not free to join. This rules out most spammers. One advantage of the centralised app is that if someone doesn't respect the rules, they could be kicked out. I've had no bad experiences in over two years. Bitcoiners are a very positive crowd. They're not like crypto investors who are looking to make quick money. Bitcoin is different; it's about creating a better system than fiat one. It's a philosophy. It's a community based on true value and human connections. It's a peer-to-peer network.

The best option if lifetime membership as you don't have to worry about loosing access. At the moment there aren't many members in my area. But still I was able to meet with a visitor, that was fun and enriching. Also it keeps me updated on any events close by. Group chat is a good place to exchange and learn. The only critical thing I can think of is that it's build on a centralized app. Would prefer an app built on Nostr. But then it's ok in the end. If it helps to meet bitcoiners, I'm all in.

As a network, community, commodity and money, Bitcoin is still in its infancy. To me, it feels like a candle shining through the darkness of the power structure built by governments, banks and multinationals. The more people who join the movement, use Bitcoin, run nodes and create circular economies, the brighter the light will shine. We don't need to destroy the structures of those in power. We just need to stop funding them. It's like having candida overgrowth in your gut. If you stop eating sugar, the candida will have no more food and its impact will be reduced.

QR stands for 'Quick Response' code, but I prefer to think of it as 'Questionable Reality'. Every religion is linked to a symbol. Followers then use the symbol as validation of their conviction. It is used as a weapon to destroy those who dare to question the one and only truth. Ultimately, the symbol becomes more important than the philosophy that led to the creation of the religion. The duality of right or wrong eliminates all shades of grey. Be careful, or you may find yourself trapped in this system, like the Minotaur of Crete was trapped in the labyrinth. Once you agree to use it by showing a QR code-linked certificate, you open the door to the labyrinth. Will you be able to find the exit? And if so, will you be able to retrieve your soul, which you had to leave at the entrance? This entrance seems to lead to freedom. You have become so entranced that you believe this two-dimensional maze is freedom. Without a soul, you enter the dome, liberated from state-imposed judgement – or so you have been told. By opening the container that seemingly holds all gifts, you are doing no differently to Pandora. Once you cross the threshold, there will be no turning back. Turn around and you will see that you have entered not a dome, but doom. But then it will be too late. Your fate will be to become food for Asterion. (I wrote this during covid)

Le bitcoin, en tant que réseau, communauté, marchandise et monnaie, est encore à ses débuts. Il me semble être une bougie qui éclaire l'obscurité de la structure de pouvoir mise en place par les gouvernements, les banques et les multinationales. Plus les gens rejoignent le mouvement, utilisent le bitcoin, font tourner des nœuds et créent des économies circulaires, plus la lumière est intense. Nous n'avons pas besoin de détruire les structures de ceux qui sont au pouvoir. Nous pouvons simplement cesser de les financer. C'est comme si vous aviez une prolifération de candida dans vos intestins. Si vous arrêtez de consommer des sucres, son impact diminuera, car il n'aura plus de nourriture. #nostrfr #français #genève

As soon as I was able to speak, I wanted to be able to do things on my own. Toddlers revolution. 😂

I've never paid that much for a good cigar. 40'000 sats is my limit. Unfortunately the good cuban cigars are getting too expensive.

If the people of San Salvador run more nodes and keep their BTC in self custody their country will thrive. The president is surely in favour to empower the people. https://bitcoinist.com/bukeles-next-bitcoin-bet-nodes-for-every-household-in-el-salvador/

Let's start to replace politicians with robots. Let's use decentralized nodes for consensus on important decisions. Let's create a decentralized direct democracy.

It a disability 😂

How to move your energy into Bitcoin: - spend your time learning about Bitcoin, Lightning, Nostr, Cashu... - use services like Shopstr, Plebeian etc - pay& replace with BTC whenever you can This will benefit the whole community including yourself. Then run a node. Options like BtcPayServer will increase your sovereignty.
