Was asked yesterday by some very good friends (over 20 years together) in YPO about how I would feel if Bitcoin went to zero - and as a result….i went to zero.
I had to explain (again) that I can’t believe I’m lucky enough to live at this time, with all of you, and contribute to this protocol that is aligned to my beliefs. That the reason it won’t fail is the tens of thousands (and growing quickly) people like that who have also realized their agency in creating the world they want to see.
But even in the unlikely event that it did fail, that I wouldn’t change a thing.

What a ride and so fortunate to be creating it with you!

We are so early.

Yes, I agree. I see it from two different angles: 1.) the existing system will fail. That is 100 percent sure. The end station for that train is permission-based life where your rights are linked to your behaviour. Fascism or communism powered by AI. People live in their 15-minute smart cities (op...

Glad to be here with you too 🚁😁

Bitcoin's design mirrors the fundamental principles of nature, where the path of least resistance is always preferred. The protocol inherently seeks to minimize entropy, conserving energy and promoting efficiency. It’s reflected in the incentivization of miners to optimize their operations, drivin...

I wouldn't like to live in a world where bitcoin went to zero unless it was because fiat clown world fixed itself (highly unlikely). I'm with you, ride or die.

💯 The point is we HAVE the opportunity to right the wrongs of an extractive system.

Thank you nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe for your conviction and leadership when it comes to standing for win-win agency in a world that tempts us to think win-lose or lose-win. You have helped me to be a reasonably calm leader that my little corner of the wor...

Love your content Jeff, looking forward to see what you bring in the coming new year

The real subjective value is the friends we made along the way. 👍

If bitcoin fails, I will come back to my first plan : Work until I die working.

Do you ever ask how they would feel if the currency they use went to 0? I've never been directly asked the specific question but in wonder if it could open a person up to reconsider their own priors

I'm just earning and spending it like money, because that's what it is. IDEK what the price per bitcoin is anymore. https://image.nostr.build/85ec29ed07164210cea9285aab6f892e833c71fac6aba3d6481e57c6f469bc6e.jpg

LOL…like 4% adoption within the entire world at $90k a coin, adoption is growing, but somehow people think it is going to zero. Okay 👌 😂

They want to see it go to zero.

One of the greatest paradoxes of Bitcoin, is discovering that you didn't need Bitcoin to restore your own agency. While I celebrate people discovering their agency through Bitcoin, I'm glad that Bitcoin is not strictly required. Bitcoin is the hope that individual agency will be restored for all o...

Ride or die, all the way.

We don't even need to price Bitcoin in fiat, making zero or thousands nonsense. Your view on this thesis would be very appreciated: https://stacker.news/items/1292554/r/bitcoinawareness

The thing that will go to zero is the price of all goods and services on a Bitcoin Standard. We all can finally be rewarded for the great human ideas, instead of being monetarily punished for them.

Living on Bitcoin certainly is a better world Jeff. I know you really believe it will succeed despite the powerful forces running the fiat game. Many people would have a hard time starting over in this world especially the older Bitcoiners. Bitcoin must prevail. Thank you again for being on my podca...

To the glorious end Jeff 🫡

The reason it won’t fail is the tens of thousands..." That's the essence of the network effect and decentralized conviction. It's a shared realization, not a single point of failure. Creating it with you is the real yield. LFG! 🚀

In this together - no matter what! 🧡

I can hear your voice speaking as I’m reading this… lol. I truly am a bitcoiner! 🤣

Reading this article, I’m once again struck by how tiny the probability is of living in a time where you can actually step outside fiat slavery and narrative control – and do so with open tools like Bitcoin and nostr. Stumbling onto this, recognizing it, and even helping others benefit from it...
