One of the people I work with, technically someone I supervise, is the most powerful and influential person I have ever met. There are thousands of people walking the earth today because he risked his, over and over, to save theirs. And after he saved their lives he showed many of them how to build new lives here. As it turns out, some of the people he saved had been tasked with assassinating him. But he saved them anyway and then “turned” them by showing them a better future than the one they had been ordered to kill for. I don’t know anyone who deserves to puff up their chest more than him and yet he’s the most humble person I know.
He worked for me for a few years before I started to learn who he really was and when I thought about the respect he showed me I started to think I must be somebody too. I started to puff my chest up a bit. But I hadn’t saved thousands of lives. I hadn’t helped hundreds of families build new lives in a new land. I just sat at the bigger desk and signed their timesheets. I didn’t “deserve” his respect.
But he gave it to me anyway, not because of who I am but because of who he is. He believes everyone is worthy of respect, everyone is worth saving, that given the chance everyone will choose a future built on freedom over one based on orders.
I wonder sometimes how hard it was for him to be patient with me during those years that I thought I was somebody. He wasn’t loyal to me, but to the better version of me he hoped I could become. And now I feel obligated to become that person because he deserves the respect of someone worthy of showing it.

21 Million gives it Value. P2P gives it Utility.
I think you can’t unbundle those two. There are a lot of scarce things that are useless. Most of the internet is easy to transfer data that is worthless.
Bitcoin isn’t a single shining star. It’s a marriage.
And new Bitcoiners are being born every day.

My kids are adults now and I'm just beginning to realize that you basically spend the first part of their lives teaching them, the middle part of your their lives arguing with them over who is smarter, and hopefully the last part of your life learning from them.

There was a time that I was young and dumb and I used to believe that crap but it's been over 40 years now and every single election has been "the most important election of my lifetime" yet none of them seem to have changed anything..
I'm not saying that nothing has changed in the last 40 years but I don't believe it was elections that changed it.
Think it was President Johnson who said to someone about the voting Rights act "that's a darn good law you got there now go back to your district and make me support it."
Every good thing that's happened in the last 40 years was because we forced them to, not because we elected them to and then they wanted to do it.

I'm not sure how much a bitcoin's value is really a function of whether or not it is the superior technology. I'm honestly not certain that it really is the superior technology. What it is is decentralized, censorship resistant and provably scarce. These two characteristics is sure that it will always deserve at least a niche among the other asset classes. Whether the network itself wins is just a function of how large that niche grows to be.

If you’re a Bitcoiner who only started to learn about Economics through the rabbit hole, it’s likely you’ve only been exposed to Austrian Economics. There are other ideas in Econ that are also quite compatible with Bitcoin. This is a very good survey of some worthwhile perspectives. I took enough Econ coerces in college to be able to teach it in High School. Then I went out in the real world and saw a lot of things that just didn’t make sense. I spent time in the developing world in West Africa and Korea. I came back and got my Series 7 brokers License and a Financial Planning Certificate and learned a lot about markets. I learned more during Occupy Wall Street and as a (like most, failed) day trader. I also learned some to date from Nate Hagen’s podcast.

I think today is an important day to remember when people talk about Bitcoin’s “switching narratives”. Its the 6th Anniversary of the UASF that created Bitcoin Cash. I don’t agree with the “Bitcoin is just a get rich quick” characterization but the people who claimed the true goal was faster/cheaper lost that debate and have mostly left Bitcoin (prematurely, considering Lightning and other Layer 2s can deliver that). The scarce/SoV group won the debate & remains. The Narrative didn’t change, there were always people who saw this scarcity argument as the real value behind the network, but we didn’t know that was what the Market wanted until the UASF.

This article is more than 5 years old.
Bitcoin prices have remained largely unscathed today in spite of the much-hyped hard fork, which resulted in the creation of Bitcoin Cash, a rival cryptocurrency that is similar to Bitcoin but touts a far larger block size.
At the time of report, Bitcoin was trading at $2,751.40, roughly 4.3% lower for the session, according to the CoinDesk Bitcoin Price Index (BPI).

I don’t mean that they are afraid of freedom.I mean they are afraid the the repercussions of attempting a breakout and failing.
I think the yearning for freedom is something you can’t be separated from the human soul but people can be beaten into choosing comfort (or the lack of pain) over facing their fear of failure. We see people punished all the time and we know what failure looks like. Other than Yachts and Mansions (which I would argue are not even real freedom) most people can’t even picture real freedom but they know they want it.
The best thing about bitcoin is that once you see IT, you can dare to imagine that freedom is even possible FOR YOU. You can start to see what it looks like and realize that comfort ISNT freedom.
But every human being WANTS freedom.

Six years ago today this is where we watched the Bitcoin hard fork. Then I rushed back to our apartment and started calculating how many Bitcoin I could buy with my Fork coins. Didnt figure out how to claim them without risking our Bitcoin until November but I calculated that conversion every day in between.

With all due respect, nobody doesn’t want freedom. Some people just fear the potential beatings and lynchings more, and sometimes for good reason.
Freedom can be scary to contemplate because an attempt to attain it that fails results in punishment.
That’s the root of the “Bitcoin is boiling the ocean” critiques, it’s an attempt to scare people away from trying, to convince them that if they try they may end up worse. If they allow anyone to try we may all end up worse. And people believe that because they can’t even imagine being free of debts and bills and creditors.
Everyone wants freedom. Some people just don’t believe it is even possible.

Luckily there are still some small farmers around here who will sell raw milk. The FDA has taken a few to court so they only do it for someone they know and trust.

Buffalo https://g.co/kgs/LnLwDR
My shadow left my mind and went a walkin' 'round and found a nickel on the ground
And the buffalo upon one side he got up and walked away
And the indian upon the other side gave out a sigh and said that's better now
Without the buffalo
Without the buffalo x 2
Without the buffalo I'm just and indian
I'm free and clear
The indian went walkin' 'round and sat upon the Hill to watch the sun go down
But he couldnt find his people, he got up and walked away
And he sat beside the fire, and gave out a sigh We're all forgotten now
Where is my tomahawk
My days are gone
Where is my tent
Where is my planting ground
Where is my land
This reservation's wrong
Whose this white man
My people never smile
Where is my brother
My children ignorant
Where is my squaw
Where's my buffalo

Well, Duh….
“Talk to a bitcoin maximalist – someone who believes that bitcoin is the only digital asset with innate value – and, more likely than not, they’ll tell you the world’s oldest cryptocurrency is, in fact, ‘not crypto’ at all.”

I'm signed in to Nests as Me on this Chrome browser on my phone but I can't seem to sign in on any other Browser. I've tried signing in and reverifying on other devices but it just doesn't "take". I don't know why.

Honestly, if this wasn’t securities fraud then securities fraud doesn’t exist. I don’t mean to cheer the nanny state but “the market” isn’t regulating itself. Average investors are stupid and greedy and guys like Heart are counting on that.
