The success of bitcoin is not written in stone despite how many podcasts you listened to

It requires new users to grow its network effect

It requires merchant adoption to actually have demand

It requires builders and miners and node runners

We can't just repeat mantras and hope to succeed. We have to get out there and make it happen, it is our responsibility

in 2140 you're dead, don't worry I think so too

so why and when it went so wrong? none of that has had any real world impact since (check notes) forever... the only thing that bitcoin has done in 14 years is gone up in price and create products for 24/7 financial markets.... i wasn't there so won't know for sure, but is it possible that those wh...

True but somehow it has to be stated explicitly now because of the price? Bitcoin at a 100K driven by treasury companies and ETFs is not better in terms of adoption than Bitcoin at 60K, it's not like we were winning in October 2025.

the success of bitcoin was promised to me 3000 years ago

If Bitcoin required constant persuasion to survive, that itself would be evidence of weakness. I believe it solves a real problem, adoption will occur where and when people need it.

You can call me a doomer, but I have become weary of Bitcoin activism. There is something about the space - the micro-fame, incentives, IDK - that leads all but a select few down the wrong path. Many such cases today, unfortunately. In my personal life, I have tried very hard over the years to orang...

Ask any and all places if they accept bitcoin, if they don’t ask why not. If they have any interest at all walk them through the process of setting up a hot wallet

Bitcoin reputation has to be restored too

It's all about FOMO right now. Today it's AI, but wait and see when the AI and tech bubble collapses, adoption will arrive. The value will speak for itself. That said, I'm doing my part by orange-pilling new people 🔥

Rogue and anarchist merchants*

To quote Keanu Reeves in Johnny Mnemonic: "I WANT merchant adoption...." "I NEED de minimis!!"

I couldn’t agree more. Something I am trying to push recently is that it’s not enough to simply HODL your Bitcoin. Bitcoin should be spent. It helps the blood flow of the network. The more the blood flows, the healthier it is. One day, the block subsidy disappears. At that time, Bitcoin is ...

you literally cannot scale bitcoin without trusted third parties who will rape everyone to death or a soft fork and the soft fork will NOT happen. you are NEVER getting CTV. I dare you to go around like a bunch of mormons and teach people to give money to fucking scum like lightspark. just put the ...

Just read the chapter where Smaug attacks Lake-town. The crowd was singing "The King beneath the Mountain! His wealth is like the Sun!" — three breaths before the dragon arrived. The grim-voiced man ran to the Master: "The dragon is coming or I am a fool! Cut the bridges! To arms!" Everyone else...

The podcasts are the problem imo Everyone went to sleep dreaming in 2021 and the bitcoin core attack is the result of that.

Umm yeah we know, it’s written in blocks…

What if I listen to 41HPW of podcasts? #WorkRate

let’s talk about sats · 13w

💯 success comes with adoption. adoption comes with education. i’m trying to fill the gap! my short-form educational content is aimed at the youth so they can learn the importance of stacking sats early on to save for a better future 🧡

Need more coordination, communication and organizing imo

I disagree. There is a process to Thiers' Law. Once the fiat system loses credibility Bitcoin becomes mandatory. We've done the hard work and governments printing press is doing the final touches. All we have to do is wait
