Yesterday I attended Satoshi Labs meetup focused on bitcoin privacy and their new coinjoin feature. I incredibly enjoyed it. Being surrounded by super smart & positive bitcoin people always energizes my brain. ๐Ÿ™ Another reason to focus more on leaving the fiat mines behind and searching for job in #bitcoin industry.

Just met an old acquaintance. After hours of conversation topic (what a surprise!) touched on #bitcoin. Long story short: I'm really tired of people whose ego doesn't allow them to absorb new knowledge or to think about something in a different way. Long story less short: He is someone working in IT, having good overall knowledge of the tech industry. I would argue that he knows more about bitcoin than 98.32% of population. Yet he was very wrong about quite a lot of stuff. What astonished me was how adamant and convinced he was that he's right on stuff he didn't know anything about. Like on what hardware is bicoin being mined, what mining actually is, how are transactions related to mining, ... There is no deeper message to this post. It's just a rant.

If you want to effectively short the state, take as much and as big loans as you can and buy #bitcoin - you're basically creating more inflation, dumping fiat into the market while securing hardest asset ever engineered. Wait for the price to go up. Repay debts so you can take more and bigger loans. Rinse & Repeat. This is not financial advice. ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜‚

When somebody hits me with diversification, I ask them: If 2+2 is 4, will you check in the quiz also options 3 and 5 to diversify? Same goes for #bitcoin- When there's one right solution, there's just one right solution. No diversification necessary.

Saving in #bitcoin is so easy compared to everything else. You can't buy 1$ worth of house, stock, Sistine Chapel or Picasso. And even if so, you definitely can't do it in matter of seconds just with your phone, permissionless and hassle free. Do I live in a dream? Somebody pinch me. ๐Ÿ’Š

Do you like better shelled or unshelled pistachios? I prefer the ones still in the shell. There's something about that proof of work you need to go through for every delicious bite. โค๏ธ

Even if - and that's an absurdly big IF - Craig Wright created #bitcoin, bitcoin doesn't care who created it. This shows how truly decentralized, independent and beautiful this fuck you money really is. โค๏ธ

Troll idea: Send someone some money via bank transfer and put into the message for recipient: "Thanks for the drugs and diamonds" and observe how the funds get frozen.

Over the years I grew into a man who thinks police and TSA related jobs are one of the most immoral jobs there are. One day I will raise my kid accordingly. Amazing how orange pill ๐Ÿ’Š changes your perspective on fiat world.
