Just left the neighbors' house. They asked about

It's almost impossible to explain this thing succinctly. One aspect cascades into the next, and the next, and the next....🤷

statement may be the MOST POWERFUL thing I heard — it summarizes Satoshi's discovery in a brilliant nutshell.

Isn't it weird that when
#Bitcoin
comes up in social settings with those who don't understand it, the tone is often flippant & joking...
And there you sit, a pleb, thinking, "This is THE MOST SERIOUS thing happening in the world right now."

It seems outsiders looking in drastically underestimate how solidified the bedrock of

hodlers is.
Many Bitcoiners (especially those hanging on in deep bear markets) are motivated far beyond money — they are driven by STRONG ideological & freedom incentives.

Calling
#BTC
a "privately issued crypto asset" is like calling the Laws of Thermodynamics an "interpretation of physics."
It's math & code bolstered by a distributed network the likes of which the 🌏 has never seen.
It takes the word "Trustworthy" to a new level.

An amazing single sentence explanation of what
#Bitcoin
is.👇
#BTC
is a commodity (energy) based money that allows any global user the opportunity to translate electrical work into a digitally transferable asset.

Brad, take this back. Apologize, please.
As 2 career firemen & tax paying Americans, this sort of straw man characterization of

is outright offensive.
60 years ago, the late great Robert F. Kennedy

went after tax evaders as U.S. attorney general.
Today, his son is slated to speak at a conference for tax evaders.

For sat hungry hodlers, watching

pump is like watching ur kid go off to college.
You’re proud.
You knew it was coming.
You know it’s what’s best.
…but ur aware you won’t have as much of him/her in your life as you wish.🧡
It’s EXHAUSTING when relatives have a negative viewpoint of the world…
When anything positive is highlighted they change the subject.
Don’t be a pessimist, it’s vampire energy
The game is to accumulate

.
Be a consistent, steady buyer and avoid becoming a forced seller.
This may currently be the opportunity of a lifetime.
If ur reading this tweet and u understand the significance of
#BTC
, u are truly blessed.
Most members of our species will NEVER have an opportunity to sit on the precipice of a discovery this significant & foundational.
Whatever buying power comes ur way, be generous & humble.
Remember that at one time YOU didn't understand
#bitcoin
either.
Be patient and gracious with newcomers & nocoiners — this thing takes a LONG TIME to understand.
Happy 14th birthday to Satoshi Nakamoto’s whitepaper! It has led to innovation and crypto asset investing. Let’s make sure as crypto enters its 15th year that investors get proper protection.

This dip hit me HARD...almost as hard as any dip in the 4.5 years I've been around

. Took a big bite at 57K with high conviction on the entry.
I share because every

can identify w/ the pain of missing out on "cheaper sats."
With the dollar as strong as it is, it's worth revisiting the TRIFFIN DILEMMA.
