@benjamincowen Oh boy! They are getting really desperate, don't they!?😂
What do you think these CT gurus call their hemorrhoids?
Could it be possibly @benjamincowen
You trying not think about it, but you know it's there!!!
😉 It must be awfully painful! 😂😂😂
@scottmelker Do you think that gold will not reach new highs for next 13 years like in 2011? And should we prepare for 4 years of down action? @PeterSchiff
Asking for a friend...
@MichaelAArouet Let's look into this.
1. Support for immigrants not locals.
2. Energy indep. at least 2 decades away
3. Taxes & regulations increases!!! (Europe has no $$$)
4. Oh yeah...the AI, hmmm Surveillance tool at the MAX
5. One party rule them all
6. War=End of your Life
@zerohedge It's not a secrete the whole Europe, US, Rus, China was, is and will be depending on Africa.
Say, the uncertainty in the African continent is just too good for the business.
The Reality: They suffer; and all the above thrive, simple is that.
@ctoLarsson@visegrad24 Hey @ctoLarsson
Why did you leave your country?🙂Whether it's politics, taxes, job opportunities, oppression, dictatorship, war, and hunger, they are not different from you. All of the above are creations of man.
WE MUST DO BETTER
NO MORE WARS
WE MUST LEARN
or DIE
Simple RIGHT?!
@benjamincowen The one of the problems is in entitlement. Iran doesn't belong to the USA; it never will and never should!
It's like Canada invading America for its resources and control etc.
So,now tell me how narrow your view is and how many people should suffer or die to make your life better
@coinbureau Hey, why the crypto companies move to Dubai or other friendly crypto countries and do, what they want to do there, saving themselves from this hassle with banks in the USA!??? Wouldn't this make the banks rethink the yield they offer to their clients faster?
@Aaronbennett Garbage! CZ thinks that people are stupid! It's pretty obvious what happened in October. They fucked they own clients and blamed their software...
Business won't exist without your clients! GOOD LUCK and Shame on you!
@missteencrypto@PeterSchiff What does it matter who's believe what!??? Gold works for Petr and Bitcoin works for Randi...
Both works = GREAT!
You don't have to be in one or other. You can own both and laugh at 2🤡🤡arguing.
Biden-era crackdown from the Southern District of New York on Crypto Wallet creator who will force him into 5 YEARS OF JAIL TIME for CREATING A BITCOIN WALLET!! Please help @EricTrump@DonaldJTrumpJr & @realDonaldTrump !!
American entrepreneur Keonne Rodriguez built a successful Bitcoin wallet app called @SamouraiWallet. He’s now being sent to prison for it.
In a few weeks, Keonne will begin his 5-year sentence behind bars, unless the Bitcoin community can save him by pressuring the US Administration to offer a pardon.
When I heard about this story, it sounded like fake news, so I went straight to the source. In this exclusive interview, @Keonne is descriptive, logical, and vulnerable.
His story is heartbreaking and terrifying.
By the end, it's evident he's sitting directly in the crossfire between freedom tech and surveillance states.
This is a critical moment in history—a moment for the Bitcoin community to stand up. Just as @RealRossU was pardoned, @Keonne must be forgiven, too. We cannot allow one of our own fellow Bitcoiners to spend time in jail for building a legitimate product that protects our Bitcoin and strengthens the network.
We must unify to ensure @Keonne is freed. Alone, he doesn’t stand a chance. But with support from faithful Bitcoiners, we can bring awareness to his cause.
Knowledge is power. Watch the interview and vocalize your support for @Keonne in the comments.
Show Summary:
In this gripping conversation, Keonne shares his harrowing experience of building Samourai Wallet, a non-custodial Bitcoin wallet focused on user privacy, and the subsequent FBI raid that led to his arrest.
He discusses the legal challenges he faced, including conspiracy charges and the pressure to plead guilty, despite his innocence. The conversation highlights the broader implications of privacy in the cryptocurrency space and the political motivations behind his prosecution.
Keonne’s story serves as a cautionary tale about the intersection of technology, law, and personal freedom. It is a moment in Bitcoin’s history that could define how we protect our freedom in the digital age.
