Generally the people I have seen in my life that are the sharpest, most confident, highest self-esteem are the ones who are most charitable, abundant, giving of themselves. They usually can see the "forest from the trees" and have a much longer timeframe on viewing everything in their lives. The people I have witnessed that are least confident in themselves, their abilities, skills, situation are the ones who have more often than not ended up in political power positions or were more likely to scam the system, or be less charitable, or stingy. They often have a very limited, shortsighted, or high time preference.

Jessica HODLr: Why are men weak & afraid to regain control over life, money, and society? Too bad the #bitcoin world doesn't have 100x more of her... Playable Characters Show - Ep054 A @Based Trading Cards Had the pleasure to sit and talk with Jessica who is pretty based to put it conservatively and isn't afraid to speak her mind and share her thoughts. Why is she saying the quiet parts out loud but few even in the bitcoin space are scared to? Only 3% are needed to create massive change. She is sweet but don't let her charm fool you, she is here to make waves. #BitcoinETF #BitcoinHalving #bitcoin #btc #crypto #cryptocurrency #money #satoshi #btcnews #btcprice @npub1vxmm...6svu

Evil all works toward the same end. Just as good works toward its own same (albeit opposite) end. In my view, this is why incompetence and malice are genuinely hard to discern and seemingly many different people from all walks of life all around the world at all different ages and times can seem to be “working on the same agenda.” The agenda is evil, whether they know it or not. Or whether we realize it or not. I am grateful that this talk is now beginning to be had: Good versus evil.

Based Michael @Michael Saylor is my favorite Michael Saylor. 😎👀🫡 #Bitcoin adoption one coffee bro at a time.

Government capturing #bitcoin  through #ETF is a legitimate fear. Had a great question regarding this very topic on one of our interviews from our YouTube channel. My response: we forget that we don’t know what the world will look like in 5, 10, 20+ years. We tend to project the current state of the world as we know it in to the future. Bitcoin changes you, you don’t change bitcoin. As more voters and politicians become bitcoiners this will lead to obvious changes; the biggest being the slow dissolution and defunding of government and its stranglehold over the individual. Or it could be very fast. Gradually and then suddenly like an iceberg flipping as older leaders in every sector go off in to the sunset and younger generations take the wheel. (I believe it happens this way). Keep moving forward and speaking up and taking self custody of your bitcoin. That is the real discovery. Make sure those around you are doing the same. Traditionally we could really only vote with the ballot box (republic) or ammo box (civil war/revolution.) Now we can vote with our voice (social media,) feet (moving jurisdictions,) and our wallet (#btc .) Don’t let this opportunity go to waste through fear of the unknown. Chart the course yourself, the canvas in front of if is empty and waiting to be filled by those who are willing to stand. The future is waiting for the 3%. What are your thoughts on this?

Stay. The. Course. Stay in the signal. Don’t let the noise get to you. Follow your gut.

We talk about why people resonate with his writing and videos so much and even toward the end we get in to some topics that are down the rabbit hole but have to make you sit back and do some deep thinking borne from the need to detach human depravity from the monetary supply. Of course we talk about why Luke doesn’t like when people say Bitcoin fixes the world as well as what happens when dollars don’t exist anymore. We also explore the different perspectives on Bitcoin as property or currency, particularly in relation to @Michael Saylor versus @Samson Mow views. 🎙️Playable Characters Ep045 💎Presented by @Based Trading Cards #bitcoin #btc #nostr #podcast

Aleks shares his perspective on the wealth gap and our inverted relationship with power and the importance of wielding it responsibly. He emphasizes the need to build real wealth and create value in order to support the growth of Bitcoin. He envisions a future where governance structures resemble a meritocratic, capitalistic feudalism.
