Crazy to think that people believe being able to save the money you have earned tax free is some kind of gift from our generous overlords. Disgusting

Back when money was actually money in my country (made from silver). Going to either exchange it for the new money (sats), or put it in a frame next to the Bitcoin Whitepaper as an ornament in my office Thoughts?

Answer: Give me your Bitcoin and I will give you gold for it lol

Would have been really worried about where my government is driving my country at the moment if I didn't have my savings in Bitcoin Still worried about the people I love that don't get Bitcoin

We all know how this is going to end. Talks about "doing it right" isn't going to make those in charge do it right. There is no incentive for them to do it right. There is only incentive to loot The only question is, how will ordinary South Africans protect themselves? https://businesstech.co.za/news/budget-speech/752827/warning-over-south-africas-r500-billion-money-pot/

Bitcoin communities/organizations in ZA: Bitcoin Ekasi Bitcoin Witsand Bitcoin Ubuntu Can give them a google and support their cause, if you like Also, comment any other bitcoin communities you know of, please

Only been here for a couple of days. Took some time to understand and setup the basics It's so refreshing to be here. The news, the zaps and, of course, the memes. It's just great Haven't seen a single post about "btc going to 1m" or "btc will melt faces at 100k" and crap like that Guess that's just the difference between people buying bitcoin to chase more dollars and the people buying it to change the world GM

In 1971, Richard Nixon "temporarily" suspended the convertibility of the dollar into gold, effectively stealing other countries' gold They thought that they could avoid default by keeping everyone's gold and forcing countries to have a demand for dollars in order to trade internationally Interesting statistics after 1971 (they have not lifter this temporary suspension and they will most likely never do so):

WTF Happened In 1971?

1. Never share your private keys with anyone 2. Keep your private keys safe, and only accessible to you 3. Never send someone money to buy Bitcoin for you (it's a lot easier than you might think to just buy your own Bitcoin and to custody it in your own non-custodial wallet) 4. Be wary of sharing personal information on the internet (or this community). Once it's out there, it's out there and may make you susceptible to exploit in the future

Only just started to figure out how nostr works. Took a break when I tried a while ago. Already my new twitter/x, much more relevant and fun content
