« NOSTR can’t scale NOSTR is messy You’re not sure to see that message because on you don’t have the right relay » Reminds me of TCI/IP. Messy but it works.

Bitcoin is really a digitization of trust Money is only the first app The next ones are : identity, voting , contract (not smart contracts) , private services in lieu of public ones (education, health) Everything the state provides except security … and then I am wondering if we can’t really digitize security measures (robot, drones?) So the state knows this and they will do everything they can to maintain their hold on the last one: security (monopoly on violence) To do this they need to manufacture insecurity That’s it , that’s the agenda

Bitcoins don’t move, it is you that moves Bitcoins don’t exist only UTXO Bitcoin Addresses don’t exist, only hashed spending scripts Bitcoins don’t travel on the lightning network, only secrets

When you sell Bitcoin for Fiat you sell freedom money for slavery money. If you sell high it just means that freedom has a high price for you , but that it can still be bought If you don’t sell at all, it means not one can buy your fredom

@Lyn Alden @Giacomo Zucco So I have to confess that I did not anticipate the “fight you” phase playing out as it is. Let me unfold my thoughts on this: I had expected coercive measures from the get go. Such as “must declare on taxes”, “illegal”, “KYC only exchanges” and so on But what I think is unfolding is much smarter and darker. It’s a “buy out” strategy. Not even using government fiat money but using everyday regular Joe’s money. The ETF being the proxy tool. It’s based on the “everybody has a number” theory. Here’s how it goes: Step0 - Very Weak Hands: let me give you 50K to 70K per Bitcoin. They sell. BTC goes into Coinbase and other such custodian Step1 - Weak Hands: let me give you 100K per Bitcoin. They sell. BTC goes into Coinbase and other such custodian Step2 - Medium Hands: let me give you 150K to 250K per Bitcoin. They sell. BTC goes into Coinbase and other such custodian == at this stage I expect that 45 to 60% of all BTCs are either in custodian or in US corporate companies such as MSTR Step3 – Strong Hands: let me give you 500K to 1000K per Bitcoin. They sell. BTC goes into Coinbase and other such custodian Step4 – Very Strong Hands: let me give you “your number” per Bitcoin, even 10M if that’s what it take. They sell. BTC goes into Coinbase and other such custodian == at this stage I expect that 75 to 85% of all BTCs are either in custodian or in US corporate companies such as MSTR And along the way there will be: - orchestrated rug pulls to create FOMO on the fiat splurge. It will be hard to resist for a long time… if you see BTC at 1M and then down at 200K and then back at 1M when do you not sell ? only the strongest Lions - mandatory KYC/OFAC transactions. Meaning once enough coins are in US custodians they are either frozen to death or not moving unless its KYC - at some point they might try to ban transactions outright - they might decide to kill BTC via rug pull of the price or to keep it as a geostrategic advantage So what could be left? - Maybe some coins moving around between citadels and federations, but we’ll need to add zeroes to break down satoshis further in order to have enough flowing - Maybe a fork with an OFAC one and a Rebel one - You can’t kill an idea so maybe there’ll be a Bitcoin2 initiative Truly I hope I’m wrong but this “buy out” possibility is terrifying

I hate NGU But man after 2 years of trying to orange pill and explain “the revolution “ with no success, all it takes is 1 min of NGU and everyone is like “how do I buy some ?” I’m guessing another 4 years before they’re staying for the revolution We re so early

It’s by far the best time to build on bitcoin You have : all the narratives , a product ecosystem, institutions changing their tone, a strong community and still so early that everything needs to be done , wide open spaces

Owning paper bitcoin is like owning a piece of a house on a paper. You don’t get any of its beneficial properties: can’t shelter or live in it, can’t raise your family in it , nor can you garden or improve it
