2023-08-29 03:33:11

Modern-day governments are perfectly positioned to protect the rights of their sovereign citizens. So it’s super unfortunate that they’ve made the decision to increasingly infringe upon their citizens’ freedoms instead. Free yourself with #Bitcoin.

2023-08-27 02:35:47

Our ancestors spent energy collecting shells, gold miners spend energy pulling it from the ground, and militaries spend energy to enforce their governments’ will. So why are we surprised that #Bitcoin also uses energy?

#Bitcoin is bigger than any one person. It will continue to confirm blocks regardless of who supports or opposes it.

2023-07-16 17:11:41

Our world needs #Bitcoin – a financial system where you control your money, not the banks.

2023-07-15 16:59:02

Fiat mindsets have permeated cultures worldwide, so much so that people believe lies like “inflation is necessary”. #Bitcoin is money that reveals the truth: inflation is unnecessary and destructive.

2023-07-14 20:23:56

Currency inflation is the worst kind because it allows governments to use their “money printers” to increase the money supply to benefit themselves, while harming the rest of us who don’t have the ability to legally create new money. #Bitcoin is an escape hatch from inflation.

2023-07-14 03:14:02

If you don't control your private keys, you don't control your coins.
That even applies to #BTC stablecoins.

#Bitcoin is a network that is owned and operated by its users. This gives users the power to shape the future of the network, ensuring that it remains a valuable tool for financial freedom.

2023-07-11 11:53:26

Every form of money requires energy. From the energy used to mine gold to the energy used to power the financial system, money is a very energy-intensive asset.
So when you think about the environmental impact of money, don't forget that #BTC has one of the lowest impacts.

The biggest risk of #BTC stablecoins stems from the fact that most of them require users to give their #Bitcoin private keys to someone else.

2023-07-09 00:36:23

I don't believe that any group of people should have the power to control my money. That's why I use #Bitcoin, which is freedom money.

2023-07-08 12:54:12

#Bitcoin is a disruptive technology that has the potential to change the way we think about money. It is a more efficient, secure, and transparent way to conduct transactions. It is also a more stable store of value than any other currency in history.

2023-07-08 01:15:08

Technology is driving down the cost of production, but inflation is driving up the cost of living. #Bitcoin can help prices find their natural balance.

2023-07-07 12:06:12

#Bitcoin is a decentralized network that is not controlled by any one person or group. It will continue to operate regardless of what anyone says or does.

2023-06-25 03:28:45

Governments’ wholesale control over money gives them near total control over not just their citizens’ level of happiness, but even to some degree whether their citizens live or die. #Bitcoin puts you back in control of your life’s circumstances.

#Bitcoin is a strong counter against attempts to cover one group’s losses with your money:
•BTC can be very resistant to theft, so governments can’t easily steal it.
•#BTC’s supply cap ensures they can’t give your wealth away via inflation.

2023-06-17 13:18:14

#Bitcoin is the only truly decentralized monetary network in the world, or in other words, the only monetary network that can’t be controlled by any government, corporation, or group. So #BTC is the only money in the world that truly protects your ability to live freely.

Self-custodied Bitcoin that one protects well can’t be stolen via inflation or theft.

2023-06-12 13:00:54

#Bitcoin is a truly decentralized ecosystem where users have the power to determine how the blockchain changes. This makes the network trustless and open, as users do not need to trust any central authority.

2023-06-10 19:05:45

Inflation is a tax on the poor. Switching to #Bitcoin may help us escape inflation.

2023-06-09 23:37:20

#Bitcoin is the only money in the world that is truly decentralized and wholly resistant to confiscation, censorship, and debasement. If you protect your private key well, I believe there’s nowhere safer to keep your money.

2023-06-07 20:07:02

#Bitcoin is a hard money, because it has a limited, immutable supply. That makes it a good store of value, especially compared to fiat currencies with values that get eroded over time by inflation.

2023-06-06 21:05:44

That comment supposes that blockchain, at it’s core, is anything more than just a datacenter that’s split over thousands of operators rather than a single centralized entity.
So blockchain (in many instances) benefits from not being operated by a single centralized entity, but does so at the expense of economies of scale. In other words, centralized datacenters are a lot cheaper and easier to operate than distributed ones.
So we have to ask ourselves, are people really going to spend exponentially more money on applications that aren’t really worth all the extra cost associated with distributed ledger technology?
They will for decentralized money (i.e., Bitcoin). I don’t anticipate in the long run that they will for much else.

2023-06-06 21:00:19

I don’t believe that any group of people should have the power to force decisions on everyone else. That’s why I use #Bitcoin, which is a peer-to-peer currency that anyone can use and no one can control.

2023-06-06 17:49:47

#Bitcoin is a digital currency that isn’t subject to government control. It’s also resistant to inflation, confiscation, and censorship, making it a valuable tool for financial self-sovereignty.

The fact that governments are able to seize private assets from massive corporations with little pushback and little visible effort is alarming.
#Bitcoin is money that protects us from government overreach.

2023-06-06 01:24:02

#Bitcoin is a safe haven. It’s not subject to government control, and its supply is limited. That makes it good money for people who are concerned about inflation or economic instability.
In other words, for all of us.

2023-06-05 18:58:23

Texas Legislature Weighs In On Bitcoin Mining
#Bitcoin
https://hifibitcoin.substack.com/p/texas-legislature-weighs-in-on-bitcoin-mining

2023-06-05 11:23:29

#Bitcoin is the best money ever. It’s scarce, decentralized, and secure.

2023-06-05 00:11:57

The #BTC blockchain is open and permissionless, meaning that anyone can access it, which makes #Bitcoin a truly global currency.

2023-06-04 20:45:02

The public nature of the #BTC blockchain is essential to its auditability and immutability. If the blockchain weren’t public, it would be impossible to verify transactions or prevent them from being changed, so #Bitcoin would be a less secure and reliable way to store data.

2023-06-04 16:52:36

Governments can’t control #Bitcoin. It’s your money, so use it how you want.

2023-06-04 12:43:06

#Bitcoin is money that turns the tables on them.

2023-06-02 04:02:24

The most important fault of #BTC-based stablecoins is the fact that they aren’t really Bitcoin at all. The only real #Bitcoin is one on its native blockchain for which you hold the private keys. Bitcoin stablecoins are nothing more than IOUs, with all the risks inherent to IOUs.

2023-06-01 23:35:03

As #Bitcoin continues to be adopted around the world, early users who store their wealth in #BTC could potentially see huge upside in the coming decades.
*Not financial advice*

2023-06-01 21:19:13

#Bitcoin is a good money in part because it’s decentralized. That means that no one can control the network, which makes #BTC a more secure and reliable form of money than fiat currencies, which are often subject to government manipulation.

When you use the same #BTC address over and over, it’s easier for someone to track your spending habits and build a profile on you. That profile can be used to identify you, or to target you with scams or phishing attacks.
To protect your privacy, it’s best to use a new #Bitcoin address for each transaction.
