A Sovereign Individual

If #bitcoin is a ponzi or a “pet rock”, then so is gold. Here is why 👇 Think of simple supply/demand law. Gold bugs argue gold has “real uses” and therefore “real value”. But most gold demand comes from institutions/investors with no other desire other than to hold onto it, and

@MarkGar53054367 @CaptainDznuts I don’t ride bikes or carry spray but if I find out some dog is trying to bite me on the road I’m not spraying it I’m putting it down right there. If owner escalates the situation out of expectation I fight his/her dog instead, then whatever happens next is self defense

@CaptainDznuts Yea if I found out someone was doing that shit to my dogs something would happen to that little bitch.

This is insane. A New York City police officer conducted a drug bust on a known criminal. The criminal tried to flee the scene on a scooter, so the officer deployed a non-lethal weapon (threw a cooler at him) in an honest attempt to stop the suspect. The suspect died, which is unfortunate, but now the officer has been sentenced to 3-9 years in prison. That alone would be ridiculous. The judge took it a step further and explicitly said the aggressive sentence was meant to be a deterrent to other police officers. For what? For stopping criminals from committing crimes? The hardworking men and women of the NYPD deserve better than this. They risk their lives every day to protect innocent citizens from drugs and violent criminals. Activist judges who abuse their position of power over politics should be removed from office as well.

Share, if you think President Trump should pardon the Samourai Bitcoin wallet developers

@MTanguma Just sayin, I’m pretty sure I remember the PayPal news kicked off the actual Q4 2020 ascent

For those who weren't around, and for those who were but need reminding, let's recap how the last proper 2020-2021 bull market actually started. It wasn't an ETF. It wasn't institutional adoption headlines. It wasn't a tweet. And it wasn't your lord and savior Saylor. It was Gary Leland and Bit Block Boom. The world was locked down. People were masked, afraid, and uncertain. The economy was seizing. Most of the industry went quiet. Gary didn't. He held Bit Block Boom in Texas, a Bitcoin-only conference and state, while the rest of the world stood still. That was the spark. @parkeralewis and @unchained honored their sponsorship commitment. No hedging, no backing out. They kept their word. @MartyBent and @ODELLXYZ made good on their plans and left the northeast behind. Even @udiWertheimer showed up before we realized he was Mossad. Bitcoiners traveled from across the country to be there. We will leave that first night up to your imagination, just imagine a bunch of pent-up bulls released into the wild. In the wake of that energy, Will Cole, Parker, Justin Moon, Phil, and I drove down to Austin. The realization was simple: we didn't die. It was time to reopen the Bitcoin meetup. That decision was the genesis of Austin becoming the Bitcoin capital of the world. Month after month, people kept arriving. Escaping statism. Seeking freedom. Drawn by a community of people who understood money, what it represented, and why the definancialization of the economy mattered. Later that year, Parker published "Bitcoin is the Great Definancialization," the capstone of his Gradually, Then Suddenly series: "The greatest trick that central banks ever pulled was convincing the world that individuals must perpetually take risk just to preserve value already created and saved." That conference. That drive to Austin. Those meetups. That essay. That was the genesis of the last great cycle. Now it's 2026. And the Spidey senses are tingling again. Debasement is upon us. Inflation is upon us. An energy crisis is staring us in the face. The distinction between actual money and credit is becoming impossible to ignore. The people who lived through 2020 can feel it, the same conditions, the same pattern, the same precipice. Last time, @GaryLeland sent us all to our next chapter by refusing to stand still when the world told him to. He's doing it again, holding the last great bitcoin only conference. I can't help but feel he's about to do it again. h/t to @21Bullish for representing @OnrampBitcoin this year, and along with all the folks in this thread showing courage, when courage was lacking, going all in on bitcoin from a career perspective, and moving down to Texas with his whole family to educate the world on why bitcoin matters. Here is to the next great running of the bulls. Thanks @GaryLeland

No reason they are right now in prison. This isn't justice. This is absurd.

This administration has convicted the most developers.

The Judges who released this animal 14 times should be found ‘incapable to proceed’ in their jobs.

DeCarlos Brown arrests… 1. Capable 2. Capable 3. Capable 4. Capable 5. Capable 6. Capable 7. Capable 8. Capable 9. Capable 10. Capable 11. Capable 12. Capable 13. Capable 14. Capable 15. Incapable to stand trial What a miscarriage of justice. Sickening.

MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+ is officially the Word of the Year.

Trump praised Allah on Easter and threatened the Pope with violence if he did not fall in line. Legacy media is silent.

It is my duty to remind you that Bitcoin will use all the world's power by 2020

Impeach the corrupt judges.

@MartyTheElder Separation is blinding. Morally speaking, quite literally no different than marching troops through the city with bayonets and gutting 100k+ women and children until the Japanese gov’t surrendered.

Remember when the president said the following? “We call upon the government of your country to proclaim now the unconditional surrender of all of your country’s armed forces, and to provide proper and adequate assurances of their good faith in such action. The alternative for your country is prompt and utter destruction.” The President later referenced it in his statement announcing the bombing of civilian targets, noting that the ultimatum had been issued “to spare the people from utter destruction” but was rejected. He warned of further “rain of ruin from the air” if the enemy government did not accept the terms.  By the way, the president was a democrat and he ended up using the atom bomb on civilian targets. It happened in 1945.

@gatewaypundit Lmao. Sometimes I forgot how small bitcoin twitter really is until you see this stuff make headlines. Fun to watch though. To put how this looks to bitcoiners into perspective, someone just recently investigated Trump and found out the Russians might’ve helped him get elected

Iran demanding $BTC for Hormuz tolls proves it: censorship-resistance IS the intrinsic value. - USD? Frozen by SWIFT. - Yuan? Beijing's control. - Stables? Issuer blacklists. - Gold? Try emailing it. Bitcoin is the only truly unstoppable, neutral money on earth.

Ironic both Morgan Stanley and Iran Tanker ships are buying $BTC today. The RANGE.

When globalized trade trust breaks, it requires a "neutral asset." Gold has been that, but... It's hard to move and easy to seize. Iran is asking for BTC because it's THE neutral reserve for a post-trust world.

Paying a toll in the Strait of Hormuz isn’t the same as buying coffee with cRyPtO. When transactions are of critical importance and need to be resilient and the receiver needs confidence that they’ll have durable final settlement there is not better option than bitcoin. Using a stablecoin or some other chain would be a critical mistake because final settlement is not as certain as it is with bitcoin. The only thing one needs to look at to confirm this is bitcoin’s network hashrate compared to the affinity scams in its wake.
