keep us posted. Dreaming of a life not dominated by the state and its economy occupies my mind a lot these days.
Of course the dreams centre around Bitcoin and its revolutionary potential, but also on the sheer amount of work required to make these dreams reality. All kinds of work, but most especially the kind of intellectual work required to be an engaged citizen and not the protelarianised consumer that most of us have been conditioned to be.
And work is hard, especially when you feel your chances of success are low, based on how you have been conditioned to view the world and your place in it. Much easier to just go with the flow and enjoy the (rapidly diminishing) quality of life that historical accumulations of capital have afforded us.
I hope to begin my own citadel-building journey in 2025; it's both the terrifying and thrilling prospect of a new world.
