"This time is different" #Bitcoin

A red number on a screen has never once changed the fundamentals of the hardest money ever created. It only changes how you feel about it. And how you feel is the only thing they can use against you.

If you don't have Bitcoin in self-custody, then you are on the wrong side of the wall. (A presentation to treasury company shareholders)

None of these industries have an incentive to actually fix your problem.

If your boss cut your pay 7% every year, you’d quit on the spot. But when the central bank cuts your savings 7% every year, you call it normal and thank the bank for holding your money. Same robbery. Better marketing.

This guy gets it. 💯 🎯

Imagine that billions of people don’t understand inflation. It’s the same as being robbed without knowing it.

The most heartbreaking thing is watching hardworking people blame themselves for not getting ahead. They think they’re not disciplined enough. Not smart enough. They are. The money is just designed to make sure they never feel it.

Michael Saylor is a wealth of knowledge “It doesn’t matter how hard you work — working hard and not thinking about monetary theory and not understanding money isn’t a solution. The ruling class would like you to work hard and not think about these things.” Credit: @KevinWSHPod

A house in 1970 cost $23,000. The same house today costs $400,000. Wages since 1970 have grown 4x. House prices have grown 17x. This is not a housing crisis. This is what 56 years of broken money looks like in bricks and mortar.

Your savings account pays 2%. Inflation runs at 7%. The bank takes the difference and calls it a business model. You take the loss and call it savings. One of you understands what’s happening. It’s not you.

Scientists mapped a piece of brain the size of half a grain of rice. One-millionth the size of the human brain. It took them a year and over 1.4 million gigabytes to scan it. They found over 57,000 cells, 150 million synapses, and even some new structures they didn't know existed. Mapping the entire human brain in this level of detail would require all the data storage generated on Earth in a year a 140-acre data center. But the human brain itself can hold up to ~2.5 million gigabytes of information - enough for ~3 million hours of HD video or 342 years of continuous viewing. It can process roughly 10 quadrillion calculations per second - enough processing power to run over 4,000 high-end gaming PCs all operating at peak ability. And it only runs on the amount of power needed for a single dim light bulb. No technology even comes close to doing what the brain can do. The more we learn about biology, the more complex it becomes. This is God's Glory on display.

Your bank account isn’t yours. It’s a liability on their balance sheet. They lend it out 10 times over. They can freeze it tomorrow. They pay you 2% while charging 7% elsewhere. You are not a customer. You are a resource.

Andreas was 100% right. This is exactly what's happening in our society right now.

Your salary is taxed. Your purchases are taxed. Your investments are taxed. Your property is taxed. Your inheritance is taxed. And every year inflation taxes whatever is left. You are not a citizen. You are a revenue stream.

Bitcoin took over 40 years to create Bitcoin was the 6th attempt at digital money. Not the 1st 100% of shitcoiners have not understood this chart and why Bitcoin will never be replaced

Today would have been Hal Finney's 70th birthday. Cypherpunk. Cryptographer. The first person Satoshi ever sent Bitcoin to. He ran the network when it was just two nodes. He believed when almost no one else did. We build on the shoulders of giants. Happy birthday, Hal. 🧡
