That’s a fair point Jake. And I’m all in on Bitcoin. It is my ticket out of the matrix. Let’s make that clear! I have a lot of love for the coin ❤️ BUT… Playing devils advocate: If you invested 10 years of energy and capital plus the 10,000 hours plus of time Bitcoiners like us have invested into BTC education could you set yourself up for life without Bitcoin? A friend of mine built a tech company from the ground up and has secured his bloodline for at least the next 2 generations. Sats owned: ZERO As the Bitcoin project matures are SOME people better off looking at alternative matrix off ramps? Should you invest 50% of your cuck bucks into the coin and 50% into an income generating business you are passionate about? 69k to 98k over 4 years is not great! People don’t like valuing BTC in USD but we live in a dollar world. Not valuing everything in USD at this point in time is the equivalent of sticking one’s head in the sand - I get it, ignorance is bliss! And yes, 1 Bitcoin = 1 Bitcoin (this statement is not targeted at you it’s targeted at the Bitcoin community at large). Is saving for a house in Bitcoin going to make housing for you cheaper? YES Is saving long term going to help your retirement? YES Side note: I had an opportunity to invest in a tech company that went from a 24 million dollar valuation to a ~250 million dollar valuation 1 year ago. I missed out on a 10 x. Not mad but not super happy with my ~10% ROI with BTC. In the long term will it matter? Maybe not? But right now, at my age, that 10 x would have been life changing. I would rather be financially free in my 20’s and 30’s than my 50’s and 60’s. I’d hate to see Bitcoiners miss out on fantastic opportunities because of stubborn dogma and a set of blinkers that don’t allow lateral vision. Stay humble and stack sats for 12 years AND if you can build a business or invest in something amazing do that too! Especially if it’s your passion. Bitcoin is P2P cash and a store of value, not life itself and it’s not a business either 🧡
