@DoingFedTime@encrypted_past Correct me if im wrong but didn't tor screw that Asian college student who sent bomb threats because he was the only person using tor on the schools wifi?
I spend bitcoin, I prefer to support grassroots/bitcoin only businesses. I save in bitcoin and yea, number go up is nice. I can exchange it for cash without needing exchanges. I3t doesn't really matter what other people do. Bitcoin survives because its full of many different cultures and ideologies.
Here's my positive affirmation for the day:
You don't own your public stocks or retirement accounts. Now, they are going to use them to generate a massive bubble of ai datacenter over capacity and dump Bitcoin on you. You are working like a slave to fund your own digital prison. You are exit liquidity for the Epstein class.
They hate you. They want to steal all of your shit slowly as they push you towards death. They will even monetize that.
No one is coming to save you.
Dump these fradulent investments and ditch the dollar. https://t.co/blzigrlwv3
Official diagnosis: Clinically Bitcoin Depressed. 60/100. I remember what Bitcoin was supposed to be. The distance can't be measured in sats. https://t.co/u83hV5YqJi
Top 10 horrible Bitcoin narratives that distracted everyone from the mission & slowly led to this messy identity crisis:
1. “Everything is good for Bitcoin”
2. “Never sell your bitcoin”
3. “Don’t use the Bitcoin blockchain unless you absolutely have to”
4. “Bitcoin is for enemies”
5. “There is no consensus” (usually meaning that one company is trying to gatekeep progress)
6. “Everything that isn’t Bitcoin is a shitcoin” (Satoshi himself contributed to BitDNS/Namecoin lol)
7. “Don’t spend, borrow fiat against your bitcoin. It’s the speculative attack, bro”
8. “Store of value”, “Digital Energy”, “Digital Manhattan Real Estate”, or whatever. Purposely normalizes not using bitcoin for payments.
9. “There is no second best crypto asset” or “Bitcoin only”. A masterful psyop which aims to deligitimize the open source breakthroughs that other projects make – most of which could directly benefit Bitcoin.
10. “Lightning scales, Liquid is decentralized, Fedimints, Cashu & custodial Lightning are good enough”. Satoshi mentions trusted third parties a dozen times in the whitepaper, explaining how his money system avoids them. But a decade later, everyone and their mother tried to become a banker.
