I'm in it for the autists.

The most efficient way to gain followers on Twitter is to aggressively post doom and gloom about impending economic collapse.
Then say #Bitcoin is going to $100,000,000 this cycle when the dollar hyperinflates.
The most effective way to gain followers on Nostr is to send feet pics to @npub1sg6…f63m

2024-08-30 23:50:27 UTC

We all want $10,000,000 #Bitcoin.
But no one wants to see the culture of freedom loving cypherpunks and self-ownership autists fade away.
Bitcoin will remain unchanged, but the cultural will shift.
Be grateful for what you have, we are currently living the 'good old days'.

2024-08-28 20:54:45 UTC

Novel #writing is such a strange art form, because it melds high levels of creativity with high levels of discipline.
Something that the majority of creative types typically struggle with.
I think this is one of the reasons that it's so challenging to make a unique novel.

I've been getting so much response from Monero Bros over there lately...
It might be a little bitcoiners coming to nostr, or it might be the fact that I'm calling them out on their bullshit and saying that XMR is going to trend to zero in #Bitcoin terms.
Who's to know!

I'm class of 2021 and I'm pretty sure that if you started DCAing at any point that year you are up 250% or more in aggregate.
We are afforded nothing.
We will reap rewards, but I think times like this are the most critical to stay resilient and keep stacking. I genuinely believe that Bitcoin is extremely cheap right now.

2024-08-28 15:19:18 UTC

- reply

Yup! Chops are just opportunity.
I love periods like this, they separate the serious from the fairweather fans.

2024-08-28 13:36:26 UTC

- reply

If you've been stacking for 4 years are you not up something like 300% on your average Bitcoin purchase?
It happens slow and subtly, until it doesn't.
We can easily chop sideways for another 6 months and I'm still going to be here buying more.

2024-08-28 13:23:16 UTC

With every dip lower people become more demoralized.
The longer we chop the more people get exhausted and leave.
Leverage is getting flushed out over and over again.
It may not feel like the most exciting time, but it's a perfect opportunity to buy more #Bitcoin

I started fasting in 2013, my family said I was crazy.
I started carnivore in 2017, my family said I was crazy.
Today, they are doing both.
It's been a lonely road, but it paid off and I'm grateful I was patient.
The same will happen with #Bitcoin

I'm definitely not the best person to ask right now, I'm just getting back into Nostr again.

Every time I hear about some big and famous athlete signing a giant contract I wonder how many years pass until our #Bitcoin denominated net worth flips.
They may be very richer than me now, but I'm out here playing the loooooong game, saving in best asset in human history.

The process was slow in that it took a lot of multiple exposures in order for me to finally realize I was wrong.
Once I finally found a bunch of Bitcoiners, it was only a few months before I was fully launched down the rabbit home and stopped all my shitcoining.

My 21 Bold Bitcoin Predictions for 2025:
1) We start the year above $100k, potentially touching $120k.
2) We "crash" back down to the $85k range because the recession was finally here, we stay there for longer than any of us would like.
3) #Ethereum breaks below 0.02 $BTC threshold, Vitalik somehow looks even more frail.
4) We see an attempted privacy fork.
5) Money printers turn on for yet another "Once in a Lifetime" style event.
6) Privacy fork fails to gain economic adoption, drops in price compared to original Bitcoin.
7) Many people say Bitcoin is now cucked and leave because of it.
8) Multiple nation states publicly adopt Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset.
9) Solana goes down 63 more times.
10) Many altcoin gamblers finally capitulate, some move all their money to SuperQuantomAI NFTs.
11) Price rips to $300k.
12) A prominent Bitcoiner influencer gets $5 wrench attacked
13) Multiple ultra high net worth tech Bros adopt it.
14) MSTR hits $2500 per share.
15) You all fall in love with my #Bitcoin Fiction Novel that releases mid 2025.
16) Inflation running hot encourages people to learn more about hard money as stocks and real estate underperform.
17) Large portion of society begins to resent Bitcoin holders who dramatically outperform them.
18) First large anti-Bitcoin protest happens in the USA.
19) Bull run begins to be questioned when governments start considering heavier taxation policies against Bitcoin.
20) Most Bitcoiners wish they would have taken their privacy more seriously as government considers more hostile legislation.
21) Michael Saylor is aggressively attacked by the corporate media, as everybody learns what a "speculative attack" means.
Or....
None of this happens and I'll be completely wrong.
You know I'll be here stacking sats either way.
