I mean that freedom is shrinking, but it would have been worse without Bitcoin (and similar tech) as a lifeboat.

Where are the optimistic Bitcoiners? Is there anyone left actually optimistic about growing human freedom with software?

I’m optimistic that bitcoin is just quietly doing its work. Don’t need much rah rah from others to keep me convinced.

I think Bitcoin is about managing expectations. Some people approach it like it's a complete product that can replace the entire stack of the last 100 years of human legal, financial and technological progress that represents their current safe banking/commerce experience. Yes, you can do lots of n...

Here. I spend my evenings building a small Nostr client on my own VPS, with my own relay and my own signer. No permission asked from anyone, and nobody can take it away. That's the optimism for me: software lets one person own their corner and still talk to everyone. It's slower than the hype promis...

If you mean ending the State by seeking human freedom with software, I think I'm pretty optimistic. Despite the wild cuckery of most people bitcoiners included. I feel the trend toward more liberty is going up and will not reverse out of some local temporary hickups from time to time.
Dr. The Daniel 🖖 · 1w
A lot of people seem to think that bitcoin is going to solve every problem on its own and they can just sit back and wait for the system to collapse so it can be replaced with something better. That’s lazy, and absolves one’s self of responsibility for being the change they want to see in the wo...

Not sure if this is satire or if you have been living under a rock. Corporate takeover of Bitcoin, Cold Card wallet hacks, Bitcoin influencers encouraging spam on the network and zero monetary use of Bitcoin Core. Anyone who is optimistic is delusional. Bitcoin is either XBT or it is nothing. #x...

A lot of them left BTC during major splits because it's impossible to upgrade the base protocol. eCash/drivechains will solve this without changing the base protocol. No more holy wars, no more forks, no more getting outcompeted by other chains. Bitcoin will again be a place optimistic enthusiastic ...

Just quietly getting on with life offline; building, growing, helping people. Bitcoin’s a revolutionary phenomenon; sometimes seeds look like they’re doing nothing before they burst into life.

Of course! Monero is going to do what people thought Bitcoin would do. Then there is Nostr, SimpleX and much more! I'm very bullish on freedom-tech 😎🔥

The original shitcoin had yield. Bonds printed from nothing, redeemable in citizens' future tax. The lineage ends in math, not marble.

Maybe unpopular opinion?

People who sleep around a lot are actually just bad at sex. Sex with a long-term partner is infinitely more interesting and fulfilling in nearly every way.

If you’re always sleeping around it’s cause you don’t know what sex actually is, and are almost certainly just bad at it.

Sex is undoubtedly good. But when you combine it with love is much better.

My wife knows about what to do and how to do many times more over any random woman that i would b with. It's hard for me to even imagine going trough "learning" phase all over again.

You guys are having sex?
BangBitcoin2 · 5w
Hmmm… Like everything - sex is relative. If you are a highly sought after man - that could actually seduce and sleep with any woman he wants… (0.01 % of men) Your post isn’t relevant. For the vast majority of people — sex with a partner you deeply love and trust is the best option.
