“We are in survival mode.”
Fantastic documentary by @Peter McCormack (Follow the Money #4 - Argentina’s Inflation Crisis) showing life on the ground in Argentina across the whole socioeconomic spectrum. He’s a great podcaster but an even better listener, and his empathy shows in his genuine responses and the questions he asks. Loved hearing the perspectives and spirit of a strong people enduring a true economic crisis.
Also a great reminder of how lucky I am (and many of us are), to be sitting on my couch here in Texas, USA, with a steak, wine, getting paid in the global reserve currency, able to freely exchange for the hardest money the world has ever seen, and moving into several cold storage solutions that cost more than a few months tuition at an Argentinian elementary school.
#Bitcoin is for everyone, but I’m more bullish on what it can do to preserve wealth abroad, outside the reach of poisonous corrupt governments whose citizens live in abject poverty with little hope for financial stability or upward mobility.
It’s the people’s money. One of the most powerful innovations I think humanity has ever seen. We have a long way to go, but the possibilities continue to give me hope.
You may not like it but this is what peak male performance looks like. Hell ya.

Quick poll (for those who don’t mind disclosing), which mining pool do you use? Tried a few (Braiins, Ocean, ViaBTC). Just saw the news from Braiins. Curious what others like best?

Has anyone heard from Jason Lowery? Super vocal before, came out with the book, then boom…nothing for 6 months. Hope he’s good.

Just watched It’s a Wonderful Life for the first time. Damn. What an amazing movie.
Some people will never get it.

Anyone out there have the #Bitcoin cash back card from Gemini? (I know, I know…but it’s 10% back on gas so kinda nice for that).
Haven’t been able to pull any sats off for the last few days as the transaction fee is always the total amount I’m trying to pull off…in this case about 20 bucks. Even with high priority this still doesn’t make sense…
Glad all my stack is 🧊 at the bottom of a lake. Tragic. 

Morning #proofofwork. A mile per million. 35 days until Houston. Let’s go! 🔥⚡️
