Anyone else having really uncomfortable conversations with their wife this weekend? I’m beyond blessed that my setup appears to have dodged this attack, but I’ve never felt so exposed. I’m completely reassessing my set up and have been visibly stressed/distracted. I feel emotionally raw thinking of the people who have lost so much this week. I’m praying for each of you.

My normally patient and trusting wife is starting to talk about “diversification” 🤢 and “maybe we should keep more in our savings account” 🤮.

I am telling her that Bitcoin security will come out of this stronger than ever, but it’s also bringing to light some other things I’ve been putting off like estate planning.

She didn’t seem pleased when I pointed out that our business is a far bigger liability for her if I die than the Bitcoin.

I’m so lucky to have her and I am going to continue iterating on our security until it’s worthy of her.

If you are the bastard that stole all the Bitcoin, your best option now is to return it all, turn yourself in to the police and beg for a light sentence.

We all lived through Covid. We know that governments are willing and able to create psyops on a global scale and forcefully promote deadly medical interventions for a trumped up threat.

Remember the exploding pager supply chain attacks? They have demonstrated the ability to covertly intercept supply chains and coordinate an attack across multiple jurisdictions and years.

Bitcoin is an attempt to return sovereignty to enslaved people worldwide who don’t even acknowledge their own slavery in most cases. The only way to stop us is to limit adoption and destroy the idea that self custody is safe. Bring Bitcoin into their walled gardens.

At the bottom of this bear market trend, I am watching multiple events converge all at the same time and I no longer think it’s a coincidence.

- clarity act
- bip110
- cold card vulnerability
- treasury company drama
- etf/institutional swing buyers appearing to drive price momentum changes at the margin

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then (maybe) you win. 🥇

Bear markets, man!

-Clarity Act stalled out
-Treasury companies delisting and loosing their CEO’s
-Major hack involving trusted company (leading to everyone and their mom doxxing their setup online and likely a flood of funds out of self custody and back onto exchanges)
- existential infighting (possible fork)

I am praying for everyone who is experiencing loss and fear tonight. You will get through this.

Today reads like an advertisement for OnRamp Bitcoin and AnchorWatch.

We are never ever going to get the masses into self custody unless the tools change completely.

This cypherpunk shit is stressful.
