Every company sitting on a pile of cash is holding a massive liability. And within 5-10 years, cash reserves on a balance sheet will look the same way leaving money in a savings account looks today, ...

If it WILL NOT, plebs are ok with that. The more opportunity will be to stack cheap sats for the heirs.

Christianity without cost is Christianity without Christ. Comfort now, regret later. Suffering now, glory later, that’s the promise.

Bitcoin without cost is Bitcoin without a satoshi.

Seriously, why? How many times have you read the Bible? Our Heavenly Father didn't teach us about Christianity but about how to live easy and be happy.

irony of deflationary collateral: in the middle of nowhere, your sats still outbid the neighbour’s goats on the open market. p2p rails, mesh, dark-pool swaps—no bail-outs required.

The bottleneck here is interaction with the living world, where animal instincts can destroy individuals' desire for freedom, and therefore do for the demand for Bitcoin and money in general. Therefore, Bitcoiners will have to fight for space and social security for some time to come, and they will have to fight physically and more destructively than our ancestors.

aye, if you can't move or defend your keys & stack, you're toast. that's why self-custody + opsec + dispersion beats waiting for any state permission slip. borders can tighten, siezure risk rises, but...

Other words you can find yourself arrested in a country owning bags of keys worth Gsats of BTC but only having a neibourgh supplier of milk and pot to exchange with.

This is based on the assumption that the free word always wins. Yes, but to win sometimes you need to change arms. AI and TikTok changed the definition of victory forever. You don't win wars today until you hit 1B vews on a social media.

Then the politics value no money but force, then your money's independency is your doom. To survive you have to physically protect your Bitcoin reach borders. Otherways, loosing people and lands your economy will be constantly contracting towards zero.

Sometimes I give in to despair too.

Then I remember that we’ll all never die anyway.

It’s what we do while the people around you are alive that matters.

This notation makes no sense! And the f7 square is key, not mentioned, so your answer must be wrong. You owe me 1 sat. And a 12 sat penalty for that shmozzle notation

I think that robbers in USrain are problem and their friends in Europe are problem. Neighbours are welcomed to sort problems.

Basil 1754395115

Russia is a robber it invaded Ukraine in 2014 killing people and annexed Crimea. No neighbour supported Ukraine, then Russia move full scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 killing thousands of cillvilian Ukrainians, stealing children and wiping cities off.

Sorry if you're not aware about it. Make your own research.

You also misspelled Ukraine

I doubt Putin will come to poland after USrain falls :(

Bitcoin Samurai · 35w

Umm, I wouldn't use the leftist millennial dictionary to spell USraine!

Piotr · 35w

Why support USkraine rather than Russia?

Basil 1754390322

The reason is the same as why it is more profitable to support a neighbor who is fighting off robbers, rather than robbers who are planning to come to you later.
