Textbook example of coaching someone's language to alter their thinking and fix a narrative in their mind. Someone who accepted this narrative could easily self-destruct and sell all their Bitcoin. Not posting this to discuss the fork. This is part of a larger phenomenon that affects the entire network!

1. Have never rolled dice 2. Have only heard dice mentioned a handful of times in all my time in btc 3. I know damn well most of you have never rolled dice or even thought about it 4. No one has ever discussed seriously rolling dice until the last week, and this was at least partially from reactionary panic 5. Satoshi did not roll dice either 6. Rolling dice is not a serious requirement for self-custody 7. Yet the Professional Bullshitting Class is now deploying this as a narrative against self-custody anyway.

After Cannae, Rome could have just bowed to social pressure and done the logical thing, just as most nations and men would do when faced with such an unrelenting series of "Ls." They SHOULD HAVE surrendered after losing the Battle of Cannae. It was their third straight "L" fighting Hannibal's invasion, and the worse defeat yet. They sent their best two armies, and their best were annihilated in a battle the entire world still remembers as a textbook battle of annihilation. The Roman were destroyed so badly, it is still, right now in 2026, used as an example for just how thoroughly an army can be destroyed. People inside Rome then, semi-rationally, wanted to surrender. That or flee the city entirely. They made preparations to do so—were, in fact, in the process of doing so—by the examples set by the Maiores, the descendants of the founding patrician families of Rome, who doubled the fuck down. They stopped people from fleeing and forbade any negotiations with Hannibal at all—who, by the way, wasn't as strong as they thought, as he lacked the manpower to actually take Rome by force. This is clearly one of the great "No, fuck you" moments of world history. It seems that "No, fuck you" is an excellent crisis management tool, when employed correctly.

Persuading Bitcoiners to get the hell off Twitter is almost Mission Impossible. Psyops will continue until everyone learns to stop dunking their brains into the corporate algorithm pool.

There is no historical evidence Teddy ever said such a thing. But so what, we know he agrees.

Not a single person has closed a channel with me. I appreciate being able to verify I am not connected to anyone cringe 🫡

Coldcard annihilated. Boltz's goes down and their canary's singing. Most of the normie swaps are knocked out. And now someone tried to fuck with Zeus. Satan woke up and chose war on the Bitcoin network this week 🥱

Hey influencers, shill this: Bitcoin has powerful adversaries. If they can't kill the network, they'll marginalize it. Disguising malice as incompetence is EASY 👌

Another twitter influencer declaring self-custody dead 🙄. Since this is identical to saying "Bitcoin is dead" it should be added to the Bitcoin Obituaries, shouldn't it?
