When internet is on fire I come back to NOSTR and I get some balance back.

The case for bitcoin hasn't changed: fixed supply digital money you can hold yourself and move without anyone's permission. Financial censorship and monetary expansion will not stop. We need something by which to resist. Onwards.

Andrew M. Bailey

Bitcoin was born as an act of rebellion and introduced to the masses as an investment.

The permissionless launch of a decentralized, trustless monetary network, without a central issuer, governing authority, or anyone’s approval, was a revolutionary act in itself.

Yet this extraordinary story has been almost erased from the public understanding of Bitcoin, buried beneath the language of markets, speculation, and wealth accumulation.

Nearly two decades later, Bitcoin is still discussed primarily through its price, rather than the radical idea that brought it into existence.

The challenge is not to make Bitcoin fashionable. It is to restore its original act of rebellion to our collective consciousness.

For the first time in history, certain forms of individual sovereignty can be implemented as technical architecture rather than merely demanded as political rights.
