@great_martis Never in your life you ever imagined #Bitcoin will cross 100k and deadly wrong for more than a decade and now finding happiness in a dip.
@Ashcryptoreal Sorry to tell you this. The whole notion of crypto is decentralization and open. If a chain or native coin is associated with an institution or country or individual the whole concept or ethos of crypto is broken forever. It should belong to whole humanity beyond any boundaries.
There's Bitcoin, then there's Crypto, then there's Ripple.
Ripple has attacked Bitcoin at a level rivalled only by BSV's lawsuits.
Ripple explicitly wants to power CBDCs. They have always been focused on servicing banks.
Few projects are as antithetical to Bitcoin.
What a great day! Congratulations to Ross, his mother and everyone who helped make this happen.
Build the tools they don’t want you to build.
Make the transactions they don’t want you to make.
Your ability to transact freely without hurting others should be a fundamental right. Common sense will prevail and eventually we will be the majority.
The goal is freedom. The tool bitcoin!
@realJennaEllis Suppose you invented knives. Knife is actually a neutral tool or technology. It is neither good nor bad. Lot of people start using knives for productive and useful purposes but some used knives to kill and harm others. So govt arrested the person who invented knives. Seems fair?
Newcomers to Bitcoin may not understand why old timers care so much about Ross Ulbricht. Let me explain.
He embodied the ethos of early Bitcoin more than anyone. He was an entrepreneur who created a thriving marketplace.
He believed in radical freedom, including the freedom to trade anything with anyone else so long as it was peaceful and voluntary.
He regularly wrote about his views on freedom and why he built the first truly successful Bitcoin business - the Silk Road. He wanted to created a better world and believed his principles deeply.
Politicians like Schumer targeted both Silk Road AND Bitcoin as criminal enterprises that needed to be shut down.
When he was convicted the judge and the establishment threw the book at him. He was a first time, non violent criminal and they locked him up and effectively threw away the key.
In the early Bitcoin community we all felt how unjust this was. It was like they were locking up one of our own out of spite for what we all believed was a peaceful revolution.
Now tens of millions of people own Bitcoin and many just because of Number Go Up. Never forget there was a deeper purpose here and that getting rich is a nice side effect of that greater purpose.
Fix the money, fix the world.
