[AITA] I was the first CEO to buy $250M, but call you paranoid crypto anarchists Look, I’m the CEO who is pumping your bags to make your great great grandchildren rich, ok? I got a lot of metaphors: digital energy thermodynamically sound money cyber hornets the island of Manhattan I haven’t been hiding anything. Institutional adoption. The public company playbook. You do not sell your bitcoin. It’s going up forever, Laura! You like what I’ve done to the fiat price of your bags? Everything I said is true. There is no second best. But have you been listening to @DarthCoin ₿⚡️? Have you listened to my words? You’re not getting rid of the dollar. You’re not replacing the dollar. Every company, every CEO does dollar cost accounting. You’re not switching all those systems to a bitcoin standard. Think like a giant ocean liner. Think of the physics of the water. You think you’re turning that thing around? No. You know why? Because there’s Fortune 500 other ocean liners out there headed in the same direction. I’m gonna generate yield on your Bitcoin. Give it to me. I’ll custody it and give you 5% back selling covered call options on your Bitcoin. This is generational wealth that’ll outlive you for 1000 years. @DarthCoin says to spend your sats wisely. @DarthCoin is a paranoid crypto anarchist. The government isn’t going to kick down your door and seize your Bitcoin. I don’t even know who @DarthCoin is but what happened to him in his journey would never happen in the United States. I’m the Giga Chad. I’m Bitcoin’s poster boy pumping your bags to BlackRock and tradfi and the rest of the corporate press. I didn’t just post some lightning guides on some obscure website. Vote in the poll below on @Stacker News . Between me and @DarthCoin, Am I the A-hole? You’ll get zapped if you leave a juicy comment by @npub1ph0g...yl6h @npub1k3tk...nvxq @0xbitcoiner @k00b @npub16x07...s89d @npub1t49k...4jj5 @npub1nym2...c7fq @JB @pup @npub12xy9...vqut They love zapping on Stacker News!

Dear Nostr, Yesterday I was at my daughter's daycare "Fall Festival" event. It was great! They cordoned off the parking lot and setup all these booths and tents with free games for the daycare kids, parents, and extended family to play. My friend, a fellow father, was there with not just his daugher, but also his grandfather-in-law. He introduced me to him as a great Dad, but also as his bitcoin friend. Literally that was all he said, and I hadn't said anything yet. Unsolicited the grandfather starts, "Let me tell you the story about The Man on Monkey Island. You see, there once was a man on and island who told all the villagers that he'd buy any monkey they had for $100. Any monkey! The villagers gladly handed over any monkeys. Then, he told them he'd pay $500 for any monkey they had. Any monkey! Well the villagers went crazy for this, grabbing any monkey they could find and selling it to him. Sure enough he bought every single one. Then, he told them he was leaving on a two week vacation, but when he came back, he would buy any monkeys they had for $1000 each! Well, in his absence, the villagers all went to his third party agent, and bought all the monkeys the agent could sell them. Except this time, the Man on Monkey Island never returned." I've never seen a grandfather so smug in my life. I just smiled and said, "Thanks for the story. Sounds like Bitcoin is too risky for you." And I pocketed my orange pill instead of shoving it down his throat. You see, he's a grandfather. He's set in his ways. And with unsolicited stories like these, he's probably convinced himself he's got enough fiat to comfortably retire if he hasn't retired already. Save my orange pill for someone who wants it. I texted my friend later, "Btw I'm glad I dropped it because I wanna be on good terms! But what I would've said to your grandfather-in-law is that unlike The Man on Monkey Island, Bitcoin has been around for 15 years and its market value has grown into a trillion dollar asset class." My friend replied, "You're totally fine. His idea of money management is paying someone else to do it." My friend hasn't bought any bitcoin yet. That's why I'm the one who's his bitcoin friend. Was I right to pocket the orange pill for Grandpa? Get zapped sats to join the conversation on @Stacker News with @k00b @DarthCoin ₿⚡️ @npub1k3tk...nvxq @npub1t49k...4jj5 @npub16x07...s89d @npub1hn4z...htl5 @npub1ph0g...yl6h @JB @npub12xy9...vqut @0xbitcoiner

@npub1xker...d0en CEO @npub139nl...kwf4 made an impression on me! You personally sent me my first ever River Link text referral for some free Bitcoin.

Price DOES matter. For most, it’s that sticker shock of a high price that makes us take the plunge down to rabbit hole to figure out how we were wrong. And once you swallow the orange pill, you’re done. Come for the Number Go Up. Stay for the once-in-a-civilization Monetary Revolution.🫡 @bitcoinpup

It doesn’t concern me if $MSTR over performs $BTC. I’m not buying Bitcoin as a means to earn more Dollars. I’m replacing my fiat with hard money. You buy #Bitcoin to have more dollars. I buy #Bitcoin to have less dollars. WE ARE NOT THE SAME! Shout out @joakimbook!🫡 image

@OmniFinn great feature on @SwanBitcoin! You’re absolutely right! While the Tom Hanks rom com “You’ve Got Mail!” is dated now and a faulty premise, it was relevant at the time. I hope one day Bitcoin stories are just as “dated” because of widespread use
