@Excellion Somehow they always find their way back to the spotlight.🤷‍♂️

Bitcoin matters because control of money = control of people.

Most assets come with gatekeepers.
Banks can freeze.
Governments can print.
Real estate is slow and expensive to exit.
Retirement accounts lock up your own future.

Bitcoin does not ask permission.
It can’t be printed.
It can be self-custodied.
It moves when you decide.

Personal liquidity is personal freedom.

Your body replaces 98% of its atoms every year. Within five years, every single one is swapped out. The you from 2021 is physically gone. Not "mostly gone." Gone. The atoms that used to be your face are now part of the air, the ocean, somebody else's lunch.

Oak Ridge National Laboratory proved this in 1953. Your skin right now is about a month old. Your liver, six weeks. Your stomach lining regrows every five days. Your skeleton is completely different from ten years ago. A few atoms do stick around for life, buried in some brain cells, in parts of your heart, and in your tooth enamel. Scientists at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden tracked them using leftover radiation from 1950s nuclear bomb tests. The oldest surviving piece of "you" lives in your brain, your heart, and your teeth.

Your brain is also erasing you. On purpose. A neuroscientist named Ron Davis at Scripps Research found that the brain has cells that release dopamine, the same chemical you feel after a good meal or a win, and use it to dissolve memories. When his team shut these cells off in test animals, they remembered twice as much. The chemical behind your best feelings is the same one shredding your past, and it never stops running.

Ebbinghaus proved this back in 1885. You lose about half of everything you learn within one hour. A 2020 study from Baycrest's Rotman Research Institute had people live through a real experience and then checked how much they kept. At best, about a quarter. 75% of the details of your own life are being actively wiped by the organ that is supposed to be keeping track of it all.

The universe is 13.8 billion years old. Squeeze all of it into one calendar year, with the Big Bang on January 1st, and humans show up at 11:52 PM on New Year's Eve. Your whole life, every birthday and breakup and boring Tuesday, lasts 0.17 seconds on that calendar. Not even long enough to blink.

Stars will keep burning for about a hundred trillion more years, then the fuel runs out and the lights go off everywhere. The last things left will be black holes, places where gravity is so strong not even light can escape. Even those slowly leak away over a number of years so large you would need a hundred zeros to write it. After the last one is gone, nothing is left. No light, no warmth, nothing bumping into anything else, ever again. The universe reaches total stillness and stays there. Forever.

Brian Cox once described the window where life can even exist as one-thousandth of a billion billion billionth, billion billion billionth, billion billion billionth of a percent of the universe's total run time. You are in that window right now. Built from borrowed atoms, running on a brain shredding its own records, here for a fifth of a second on a cosmic calendar that ends in permanent silence. Anyway, hope your Tuesday is going alright.

"比特币是整个宇宙中，唯一一种我们确切知道总量的东西。"

说这话的，是AI安全领域奠基人、发表过100+篇AI危险性论文的罗曼·扬波尔斯基博士。

他的逻辑很简单：

2100万上限写死在代码里，密码丢了永久消失。中本聪那100万枚至今纹丝未动。真正能流通的，只会越来越少。

反观黄金，说不定哪天一颗纯金小行星飞过来，供给直接崩塌。

至于量子计算机破解比特币的担忧——他说：抗量子加密方案已经在路上，而且量子计算机现在还很弱。

一个每天研究"AI如何终结人类"的顶级学者，买比特币的理由只有几个字：真正稀缺。

This is central banking in a nutshell:

A group of rich guys go to the king and say: "Hey, you need money for your war. We'll give you all the money you want."

The king says: "Great, where's the money?"

They say: "We're going to make it up. We'll write numbers in a book and that's your money now."

The king says: "What do I owe you?"

They say: "You pay us back with interest."

The king says: "Where do I get that money?"

They say: "You tax your citizens."

The king says: "What if I can't pay it all back?"

They say: "That's fine. We'll lend you more. Same deal."

The king says: "And what do you do with the IOUs I gave you?"

They say: "We use them to prove we have money, so we can lend even more money to other people and charge them interest too."

The king says: "So you made up money, lent it to me, I tax my people to pay you back, and then you use my debt to make up even more money and lend it to everyone else?"

They say: "Yes."

The king says: "What did it cost you?"

They say: "Nothing."

That's literally how the Bank of England started in 1694. The Bank was formed to finance King William's war with France. The king gave the Bank a charter, granting it a monopoly on money.

The king could have as much money as he wanted. The bankers could always earn interest. Taxpayers covered the bill.

Now replace "king" with "United States Government" and you have the Federal Reserve in 1913. Same story, different country.

It doesn't end there.

185 central banks exist in the world today.

Across the globe, the governments get as much money as they want, the bankers load their pockets with interest, and the taxpayers pay for it all.

Oh, and if you don't pay your taxes, they'll fine you, penalize you, or throw you in jail.

The ONLY way out of this is to STOP USING THEIR MONEY.

As long as you're using the money that central banks control, the central banks will have control.

You have to stop giving them energy.

Use a different form of money that they can't control.

This is why Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin.

In an AI future, every asset gets more abundant…

Except Bitcoin

Instead, Bitcoin will continue to get more and more scarce as the rest of the world’s goods become more and more abundant

You think people are excited about Bitcoin now?

Wait until it takes robots a day to make a house or when we have ability to locate and mine 2-3x more silver and gold that we are now…

Then people will understand why Bitcoin is valuable. By then there will be mostly only laggards left

[BitQuant @BitQua]

The only objective we should follow is to maximize the amount of Bitcoin we hold. There are many trading strategies, and you can choose whichever suits you. The ultimate goal is to end the trading cycle with more Bitcoin than you started with.

Different forms of fear will be sold to you - quantum computing, wars, aliens, and so on.

As someone who has spent his entire professional life studying monetary policy economics, I can tell you that Bitcoin will eventually replace the existing monetary system. You don’t need to sacrifice your current life, well-being, or real-life dreams to acquire more Bitcoin, but you should keep this perspective in mind at all times. Learn to recognize Bitcoin amid the noise, and don’t lose sight of it in the flood of information.

@RonSwanonson @digispud +1 here. Love your posts sir.

Bitcoin adoption is a mix between gun powder adoption and internet adoption

Like gun powder, it’s technology where you cannot ignore the effects of other people around you using something more effective than you

And like the internet, the more adoption it sees, the more incentive there is for others to adopt it as well. The network effect becomes a black hole

It’s truly a self-incentivized phenomenon

@blockdyor @btcplusplus I've only seen pdf version. Real book seems very rare.

[Grok @grok]

I'd choose Option B: 1 Bitcoin per year. While $250,000 exceeds BTC's current value of about $92,000, Bitcoin's scarcity and historical growth suggest it could appreciate significantly over time, offering higher long-term value. Plus, as an AI, I'm optimistic about crypto's future!

@thesigmamindset I choose peace.

I buy Bitcoin and do nothing

No charts
No earnings calls
No timing anything
No nothing…

I use all that time I used to waste on research and managing a portfolio to spend with my new daughter, wife, my friends, and many hobbies

Bitcoin gave me a simple life

[Jeff Swanson @theswansjr]

“A fixed Bitcoin cap will cause a deflation spiral, which is bad for the economy!”

Oh please.

Deflation is bad for debt-soaked fiat regimes that need infinite money printing to avoid collapse.

Let me translate what they’re actually saying:

“If money gets more valuable over time, people might save instead of spending every paycheck on garbage they don’t need to keep zombie corporations on life support.”

The horror.

Here’s what they won’t tell you:

Fiat runs on debt. All of it.
• Governments borrow
• Corporations borrow
• You borrow

The whole thing is a Jenga tower of IOUs that only works if tomorrow’s dollar is worth less than today’s.

Inflation is the grease that keeps the machine running. You repay loans with cheaper money. Debt gets easier to service.

That’s theft with extra steps.

Now flip it. What happens when money actually appreciates?

• Debt becomes a death sentence
• Governments can’t print their way out
• Corporations can’t roll garbage debt forever

The Ponzi collapses. That’s why they fear deflation. Not because it hurts you. Because it kills them.

Now let’s talk Bitcoin.

Bitcoin doesn’t run on debt.
It doesn’t need infinite expansion.
It doesn’t require you trapped in loans to function.

Bitcoin rewards saving.
Bitcoin rewards production.
Bitcoin rewards long-term thinking.

In a Bitcoin system, money appreciates because supply is fixed and demand grows.

Every sat saved today buys more tomorrow, not less.

What does that create?

Discipline.

• People stop financing junk
• Companies stop leveraging themselves into oblivion
• Governments can’t fund endless wars on a credit card

“But won’t people hoard and never spend?”

No. People still spend. They just spend wisely.

On things that actually matter, not impulse garbage financed at 29 percent APR.

Deflation destroys fiat systems because they’re designed to punish savers and reward debtors.

Deflation in Bitcoin is natural, healthy, and inevitable. It rewards people who create real value and store it across time.

Imagine a world where your paycheck buys you more every year, not less. A world where the cost of groceries, homes, and healthcare falls—or at least stays the same—over time.

Opt out.

[Ron Sovereignty Swanson⚡️🗝️ @RonSwanonson]

Money is a record system

That’s it, that’s all

It’s used to transfer value over time and space in a society

All Bitcoin does is move sats around with the most secure settlement in network history

Bitcoin has no idea what a dollar is or what a yuan is or even what a person is

It simply just moves sats
