The future is bright on a bitcoin standard.
An open thank you to all bitcoiners.

I had to stop listening to a podcast from Hidden Forces today. It finally recognized it for what it was - the same doom and gloom it always has been… "The West is failing, government is failing, society is failing etc”. No answers, just more identification of the failure. Definitely not any solutions there.

I switched over to my list of bitcoin podcasts. More , , and Pysh... and even - yes even Pedro. Why? Because there is a hope in bitcoin. Maybe that is partly because we seem to have turned the corner on the bear market but mostly because bitcoiners are optimistic, building and moving forward.

Devs are creating new apps and fixing and improving old ones. Bitcoin philosphers are, well philosophizing (looking at your , and Parker Lewis to name a few). Meetups are getting bigger and more people are taking their first steps into the bitcoin network. Meanwhile the Plebs are out educating and orange pilling every day.

Bitcoiners are hopeful and optimistic. We know there are problems - we’ve identified a host of them and we are working to fix what we can. Sure we might be bickering over what hardware wallet is truly FOSS, bitching about ordinals and debating mining protocols. But we are building and moving forward anyway.

Jeff Booth is right - there is no point in living in the old world. You simply feed it by engaging with it. Even listening to the old world is tiresome. I’ve moved into the new world, a world with Bitcoin and I don’t ever want to go back.

Burn the boats.
