#bitcoin #plebchain #rebels @Danny Knowles @ODELL I’m not sure people grasp this? I knew about the opt-in but had missed that the rug got pulled and now it’s opt out. How can we NOT be bullish? 🧡🙌✊ a synopsis written by Gemini: “Big win for grassroots Bitcoin adoption: Square (Block) has started auto-enabling Lightning payments for eligible U.S. merchants by default. By "eligible," they just mean standard U.S. accounts that are active, fully verified, and based anywhere outside of New York (due to state-specific crypto laws). If a business is a standard brick-and-mortar shop in good standing with Square, they qualify. Instead of requiring business owners to manually opt-in and figure out crypto settings, millions of existing terminals can now accept Lightning payments instantly—while automatically settling the funds in clean U.S. dollars in the background. Unless a merchant actively digs through their dashboard to opt out, local spots like your favorite cafe or sweet shop are basically stealth Lightning nodes now. Dorsey actually pulled it off.” Cypherpunks write code! image

#bitcoin #plebchain I had this thought today while I was supposed to be meditating, and that is that before, if you found a penny in the gutter, it was good luck. But now in the US, a penny is literally worthless. They don't use them anymore. Stores round up your groceries. Now when we find a penny in the gutter, all we see is trash. And I thought that was a pretty trippy thought. image

#bitcoin #rebels #plebchain “A scientific body to which had been confided the government of society would soon end by devoting itself no longer to science at all, but to quite another affair; and that affair, as in the case of all established powers, would be its own eternal perpetuation by rendering the society confided to its care ever more stupid and consequently more in need of its government and direction.” -Mikhail Bakunin Look familiar? Or perhaps rather: feel familiar? ✊❤️🧡💜

#bitcoin #plebchain #rebels Yo, @npub1cn4t...3vle people are talking about Elon Musk being the world's richest person now at a trillion dollars. But it seems to me that that is an illusion. Because most if not all of his wealth is locked up in stocks (if I understand his position correctly). And if he was actually to try and sell those stocks and get a trillion dollars into a bank account or better yet under his mattress, that would have to absolutely crash and wreck everything. I think that would be interesting to hear you talk about. Because it seems like that is part of the whole Fiat illusion. And what Bitcoin in self custody gives people is true wealth: wealth that you actually have. Keep doing what you do. Love the show. image

#bitcoin #plebchain #rebels #bookstr I’m reading the book, “Why You Should Be a Socialist” by Nathan J. Robinson as a way to test and sharpen my own ‘Austrian’ view of the world, but also to try and listen and understand where are ‘they’ coming from? How do socialist oriented people view the problems and solutions. It is one of the HARDEST books I’ve ever read. Such intellectual rubbish. For example, I just read this gem, “Deferring to the judgment of the free market in allocating resources is morally odious as well as inefficient.” My reaction: image

#bitcoin #plebchain #rebels My dudes, my dear fellow bitcoin maxi psychopaths, lest ya’ll forget: stay humble and stack sats. Turn on those DCAs. Was relevant at $58k. Still relevant at…🤷‍♂️$58k. Life’s just funny like that. Enjoy the ride.
