Advice for newcomers to #bitcoin
Don’t use ledger or trezor
Buy all no-KYC sats from the beginning
Accumulate methodically & smash buy on red days if possible (there will always be fat red days)
Consolidate UTXOs as needed
Run a node
Think hard about how to store your seed phrase in a durable and truly hidden way. Have a backup. Your hardware is not a viable key storage option
Think of a way to provide value and earn sats P2P
Learn about Bitcoin adequately but don’t make it your personality. Consider rejecting influencer’s - they mostly just want to monetize you
Don’t obsess over price and accept that nobody knows what will happen short or medium term
Don’t trade
Don’t shitcoin
Have fun with Bitcoin and experiment with using it. Use Lightning. Feel the power of the stack
Meme if possible
Use #nostr and find your people
Remember that governments are criminal organizations and taxes are theft
Enjoy your life (it’s ending one minute at a time)
