I don't even think the threat of imprisonment would make me hand over my bitcoin. They would have to force it from me. And by the time they get around to it, I will have probably sent most of it to other people.

What's more resilient: the bitcoin network, cockroaches or daffodils? #asknostr

If you get a loan from a bank to buy BTC at least if you default you can say f you and go bankrupt or something. And keep the bitcoin. But putting up your beautiful BTC and having it seized from you for not paying up is just ridiculous 😂😂😂

Could an economy of 1 million people live off a collective wealth of 1 BTC at some point in the future? #asknostr

The only way they can stop us from having our own decentralised AI agents, our own self-driving cars, and other similar freedom-enhancing techs, is to position them as harmful in some way, and therefore in need of regulation and centralization

BTC is crashing not because it has weak fundamentals, but because it is the closest thing we have to a free market, and so it accurately reflects the absolute degeneracy of the fiat money system

The BTC price crashing has nothing to do with the Bitcoin network and everything to do with the disfunctional fiat system

Why Bitcoin is crashing In other words... The US pays much higher interest than Japan That gap pushes money out of Japan and into dollars That’s why USDJPY keeps going up But: Japan has way too much debt If Japanese rates rise much more, their system breaks So markets think the BOJ will step in and cap rates again (YCC) When people start believing that: Big trades get unwound Bitcoin dumps (easy-money asset) Gold gets jumpy (stress hedge) Bottom line: The world is leaning on Japan to keep rates low. If Japan can’t, something global cracks. Markets are starting to price that risk.

How you guys holding up? I'm doing fine personally

Life is all about perspective

If your girlfriend asks you how bitcoin is doing during a serious bear market, does that count as emotional abuse? #asknostr

Bitcoin down 50% since October more or less. Assuming we are all as maxi as we say we are, that is a serious dent in our wealth. I know it's all about the long-term, holding, etc. But damnnn

Many people like to think they are above getting psyoped and manipulated by the "current thing". But pretty much no one is immune. The propaganda we are all subjected to is unbelievably powerful and relentless
