I'm probably a more die-hard Bitcoin maxi than people seem to think. I firmly believe Bitcoin will eventually have to replace all other money and forms of value settlement. If someone wants to buy anything, including silly or harmful things I don't like, in that world, the only good money will be Bitcoin. And with layers, we don't necessarily need to change the chain to do it. People are skeptical, and I can understand that, but that doesn't change my desire to want to make that the reality, nor do I regret all the sacrifices I've made towards it.

After a decade working in tech writing software professionally, I now take jobs where I'd have to work twice as hard for half the pay just so I can work in the industry and spend every productive hour I have towards thinking about Bitcoin and how to make it better. I've delayed purchases because coin was cheap and I'd rather have the coin. I've put myself through development hell building Carbonado because I wouldn't settle for compromises such as using Arweave.

This is the level of conviction the system of fiat and the shitcoiners are up against. And I know they have no chance, because I'm not the only one making sacrifices on this level to make this happen. I can't tell other people's stories, but mine is hardly the exception.

Bitcoin will win because millions risked it all and put their blood, sweat, and tears towards the most ambitious grassroots effort mankind has ever undertaken: Making it so Bitcoin can replace all the money. That won't guarantee it will, but if nobody cares and nobody puts in the work, there'll be no chance that it will.

We bitcoin because we believe in a brighter future, one filled with global egalitarianism and abundant energy, for generations to come. We, the bitcoiners, are all Satoshi.
