What? You guys never touch your node? You should try it sometime.

It’s ok to touch your node. It makes me feel better every time someone says I am not important. Everyone should feel ok touching their node. It’s much more safe than getting upset when people don’t recognize the value of your node. And it feels good, Great for releasing stress and anxiety. I’m much more relaxed when I touch my node.

Just go home and touch your node. You will feel better when you wake up in the morning.

In Beijing or Shanghai. The reality of a CBDC in the west without paper cash is still a long way away and the fallacy that AI would not be able to manipulate C# code is lost on me. A sequel injection can hack traditional financial instruments today, I think there will be plenty of ways for bitcoin transactions to be manipulated by the government when they do open a bitcoin department. I feel for the people who got their coins by darkweb sites. Must be strange to be wealthy or very rich and have nothing to do with the money but be a criminal. I have come to terms with the fact that bitcoin is not Santa Claus, I don’t need to believe in it for it to work, It’s not my wife, I can do whatever I want without the approval of the bitcoin community, And FIAT is a part of daily life anywhere there is a central bank, And I am best to use both to the best of my ability.

It can be used for payment, It can be used as a store of value, It can be added to central bank balance sheets. It’s only claim to superiority is that it is decentralized and accessible to anyone with a computer. Bitcoin has many more downsides otherwise. Nobody is printing child pornography on dollar bills at the federal reserve, But gay nerds are doing that in OP_Return. I don’t think either are better, But they are interdependent systems that require an in depth understanding to profit from.

I appreciate the complimentary role it plays to other assets. The dollar is and will always be the FIAT currency it is. Just because it loses relevance does not mean it loses value completely. A Roman Aureus is far more valuable today than it was during the Roman Empire, And that is about the best example there is of a total governmental and societal collapse. I am not a fan of people blindly following any doctrine or dogma they themselves are not creating, And if they are creating one, They are probably crazy and should not be trusted at face value. Everyone is trying to exploit everyone for financial gain or otherwise.

It’s indoctrinated narrow perspective. Good for learning to understand something or someone different than yourself, But if you fully prescribe to it without it being your own actual perspective, It’s proof that you cannot think for yourself. Just because people want bitcoin to take over the world doesn’t mean people will give up government welfare and learn computer science so the dollar collapses. It’s because they are felons holding bitcoin they got illegally and their only hope of evading prosecution for tax evasion is a total government failure. Shit in one hand and hope in the other, I am sure you will have more shit than hope.
