Takeaways from the last 48 hours:

-No one knows what's going on, least of all the ones claiming otherwise.

-Everything is fake, unless you agree with it.

-There is no room for nuance or critical thinking. People made up their minds long ago.

Best thing about this great observation: it applies to much more than the hot topic of the last 48 hours.

This is an absolute masterpiece! Hal Finney's legacy is perfectly captured here. I’ve never seen a more meaningful piece of Bitcoin history. Honestly, I’d be the luckiest person to have something so iconic in my collection. It’s simply beautiful

You were always one of the few people whose voice helped me stay sane during past bear markets when everyone was screaming that the sky was falling. 🫂👊

"I'm not going to apologize for winning." Exactly that. You put the work in and you had patience.

I stopped telling people to buy Bitcoin years ago.

I'm not an investor. I don't want to manage a portfolio. I certainly don't want to advise others.

I'm ok with all my eggs in one basket.

Other assets will have their days. People will point to a specific timeframe and say "I told you so!"

That's ok. Enjoy your time in the sun.

Up or down, I'm a Bitcoin holder. It has changed my life for the better in every way.

And it wouldn't have happened if I listened to everyone else's advice.

I'll always do what I think is best.

You should, too.

These are things people often say who got in early. For someone who bought bitcoin 4 years ago and has not kept up with inflation, it hurts. Particularly in a time when many other investments have increased substantially on a relative basis. Bitcoiners are great at rejoicing/dunking on people whe...

I don't tell people to buy Bitcoin, I just donate Bitcoin to causes and in this way I have been quite succesful at converting people. Getting your first introduction to Bitcoin as a donation is extremely powerful ♥️!

I agree however, to me, bitcoin is not an investment advice. It’s a lifeline for others so i won’t stop spreading the word to save souls.

You are doing the right thing. I am about to start a 9-5 thingy (still music related at least…) and I am happy that I can stack a little more 💜
Joe Stauffacher · 10w
It’s not investment advice… it’s pro freedom! The people who think of it as an investment are not thinking what do I create to get Bitcoin. They are not understanding the power of exchanging in Bitcoin. The goal isn’t sitting on an asset class… the goal is sovereign money exchange.

Leo Wandersleb · 12w
I'm for freezing funds with many years of head notice to avoid 30% of all BTC falling into the hands of giant quantum super computers and their institutional centralized masters.

Bruh it's so disheartening... I am afraid that the majority is falling for the okie doke... Folks are addicted to fiat.

Funds? You mean the UTXO dust that is now 40% of the size of the set? These are no funds, it’s shit on the walls of a public toilet.

Apparently classic EQ is free to play now, my brother tried to tempt me back to that hellscape, but I hear they made it less of a grind.

The normalization of gambling in all aspects of life, and at all ages, feels like the beginning of the downfall of society.

The blackest of black pills.

I refuse to participate.

Bitcoin is no gamble. The orange pill is our best chance for the future.

C · 14w
Can't say I've tried gambling with my Bitcoin, unless you count a brief shitcoin phase, but the idea does not appeal to me.
Narwhal Tacos · 14w
Absolutely right. Gambling is a spectrum of poor -> wealthy. The wealthy never gamble, down the spectrum toward Poor, always do. And hypocritically, I DO believe gambling is a tiny but essential part of any “investment portfolio”. Speculative Assets and all that. Just keep it in check. I lear...
