The internet shut down for half the day and I had zero access to my retirement investment accounts.
I did still have access to my physical Gold and any Bitcoin on a cold storage wallet.
Maybe there is something to this decentralized thing.
I’m turning 41, but I don’t feel like celebrating.
Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers.
What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control.
Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU).
Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy.
A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast — while we’re asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms — and allowed them to be taken away.
We’ve been fed a lie.
We’ve been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech.
By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we’ve set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction — moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological.
So no, I’m not going to celebrate today. I’m running out of time. WE are running out of time.
70% of Americans can’t afford a median home. Why?
Broken money forced people to use real estate as savings, making homes unaffordable. Houses aren’t savings accounts, they’re meant to be lived in.
#Bitcoin demonetizes housing, drives prices down and puts families back in homes.
HERE'S HOW THIS👇IS GONNA GO:
* Fed investigator to bank: "Why did you debank Custodia?"
* Bank: "Because you told us to debank Custodia."
* Fed investigator: "Ummm..."
This conversation will play out for every debanked crypto company, again and again and again...
If everything is fine, then don’t change anything at all.
But when the financial system isn’t working for so many people in the UK, it needs to be updated.
