TL; DR but I did copy text and converted to audio and listened instead. (Sub 84iqer here 👋) Thinkers like you help us "break through the wall" and forge a path for that we can all trample. Thank you for the PoW

People are so used to assets that do more than just hold value... like homes, jewelry, sports teams, or art... that when something like Bitcoin comes along, perfectly designed to store wealth and nothing else, most of us miss it. We're thrown off because 'it doesn't do anything else.' But a new dawn is rising...one where simplicity might just redefine what we value most.

A short story on the RBA 1) Their appraisal of Bitcoin:

It’s Bitcoin Pizza Day, the annual nod to Laszlo Hanyecz’s 2010 purchase of two pizzas for 10,000 BTC, now worth over $1 billion USD. I’ve double-checked the figure as Bitcoin hits new all-time highs. This story, destined to live forever, isn’t just about wild numbers... it’s about value, money, and how we see both. A friend recently boggled at Laszlo’s deal: “A billion dollars for pizzas?!” We’re all wired to expect money to lose value. In our reality, a dollar buys less tomorrow; prices climb, and we shrug. Bitcoin turns that upside down - it’s built to gain value, which is why these stories hit so deep. I’ve heard whispers of it myself. I know people who spent BTC on everyday stuff now worth millions. One friend snagged a used Toyota Corolla for 40 BTC in 2015. Today? That’s over $2.5 million. From coffee to cars, every Bitcoin spent back then could be a fortune now... but “worth” isn’t just a price tag. We’re so used to money fading that “good money” appreciating feels strange. Yet good money should grow - rewarding holders and rethinking wealth. Bitcoin’s rise makes us question value. Laszlo got his pizzas and a legendary story to tell with it. My friend got a car when they needed it. Value is what you gain right now, not just future millions. I’m already imagining using Bitcoin down the line. Maybe I’ll take my family on an overseas adventure. That BTC might be worth millions... maybe tens of millions someday. But the memories - laughter, shared moments, new horizons - those are beyond any chart’s measure. They’ll be priceless. We should expect money to go up in value... expect these stories to become more common. The more we hear them, the more it’s a sign that good money is weaving into our lives - permeating our relationships and society. Bitcoin Pizza Day isn’t just a wild anecdote. It’s a challenge to rethink money’s meaning. In a world of fading currencies, Bitcoin pushes us toward something enduring. Here’s to Laszlo, to pizzas, and to spending “good money” on what truly counts.

Annnnddddd we have a new contender for "Most retarded takes on Bitcoin"

If "vibe coding" is the new thing does that make "vibe journalism" the old thing?

Isn't a Bitcoin company just a wrapped Bitcoin token? Isn't a wrapped Bitcoin token just a shitcoin?

100k pushup bros get another rest between sets.

I'm no Trump fan but could we please have more world leaders doing this

Prob time to read the blocksize wars again

Just had a fox curiously approach me and my puppy in the wild. Surely this has some symbolic meaning. Or perhaps it's just randomness? No matter what, it felt incredibly surreal and I feel a sense of gratitude to have been a witness to this moment. https://blossom.primal.net/5dbd681842194f0a67ad4a91d02ccc8f307b5589e725a73d541eed95a20a65b5.mp4
