The chapter in the @Lyn Alden book Broken Money taking about how the British Government lied about their war bonds being over subscribed is wild.
The war bonds didn't sell and they printed money in an under handed way to buy the remaining bonds to make it look like the public was behind the war.
The audit of their actions didn't happen for 103 years.
The British Government stole the money to fund the war through debasement.
It became the model of theft that governments use so openly today.

Bitcoin is my All-In poker hand against a whale.
Back in the game baby!

A simple ledger that once audited, can not be altered.
The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions that I wish it to be always kept alive.

Bankers are blind to the value in #Bitcoin.
The more an action could transform the future, the greater the resistance to it.
The current banking system uses ceremony and magic to deceive the public.
The amount of value stolen from the people is uncalculable.
A simple life is what you get when you learn about and trust #bitcoin.
Bitcoin discharges power throughout the universe.
The last day of a 72 hour fast is a zoomer.
Banking is as thieving as raiding is.
Been ready to talk #Bitcoin at work...
But everyone is avoiding me.
A plan is a direction.
My Node found a new block header.
I'm free to post a note

Banks and Bankers served a purpose in the past.
The concept of banking has devolved and is now corrupted to the point of outright stealing from the public.
Time to move on.
I think attempting to be 100% right is a limiting goal.
Bitcoiners don't ask permission.
As a HS teacher we spend a lot of time talking about the future.
I also take time to highlight the importance of the present.
I teach that the best futures develop out of living moment by moment, looking for reasons to be grateful, creating new things while being graceful in action and movement.
Each moment is used as a means to a good life in the present and not a goal to be achieved some other day in the future.
Enjoying this moment in the mountains on a crisp morning after yesterday's snow storm. GM my Nostr friends.🤙


How did I survive?
I first traded for what I thought was Bitcoin with a Robinhood account in May of 2018.
Lost 50% in the first months but kept stacking for some odd reason.
Starting learning more but still moved things to Blockfi for the return. I even recommended Blockfi to a few friends.
Got out of Robinhood after they allowed Bitcoin redemption and Blockfi before it was too late. (Got friends out too)
Could have been a disaster.
