The money in your bank account isn’t truly yours. The cash you physically hold isn’t truly yours either.
The Bitcoin you have on an exchange or an ETF isn’t truly yours. But the Bitcoin you hold yourself is your money.

The experience of Bitcoin self custody today looks nothing like what it was 10 years ago.
And it will look nothing like what it is today in 10 years.
We’re living in exciting times!

Regulators will eventually come after all stablecoins until they are as regulated as normal bank accounts
Only Bitcoin can resist this pressure

Running your own Bitcoin full node is not so hard as people think. It’s really just downloading an app on your computer.

Probably not if you don’t absolutely have to.

Taking a job that requires you not to own Bitcoin sounds like the worst trade anyone can make

Politics shouldn’t be such an important part of daily life.
People shouldn’t be asking if the government should do this or that, they should ask why the hell is the government getting involved in the first place.

No presidential candidate truly supports #Bitcoin , and even if one does, he won’t do or change anything favorably. At most he won’t worsen things too much.

2024-05-08 21:10:54

The goal of the government is not to kill #Bitcoin
It is to hollow it from any of its freedom, privacy, and censorship resistance properties and leave it as “rare digital tokens”

They recently added 9% corporate tax after some international pressure, and there’s 5% VAT, but no personal taxes I think
