My Twitter feed has turned into mostly ETF & Saylor talk. Is this what excites most bitcoiners these days? Am I missing something here?

Bitcoin is the greatest Medium of Exchange the world has ever seen. Bitcoin is the greatest Store of Value the world has ever seen. Both are true.

14 Bitcoin for a pan of baklava in 2011 is now worth over $1,000,000. From $70 to a million in a little over 12 years. I've never been more bullish on anything in my life, yet even I didn't believe Bitcoin would grow so fast. I was just trying to pay my bills, and save for the future, while getting away from the fiat standard. Feeling extremely grateful and humbled today. Wow. ๐Ÿ™

I came here for freedom money, not for financial gain. Over the past 12+ years I have watched Bitcoin 12000x vs USD, and it blows my mind every time this happens. Even after all these years. Maybe I still haven't accepting the reality of it all. Many of us were told over and over that we were making a terrible decision, or that we were idiots for investing in "tulips." Ridiculed and laughed at constantly. Not just by strangers, but by family and friends. They were wrong. Not only did we make a good decision, we made one of the greatest decisions in recent history. We had the conviction, the nerve, and of course the autism, to do what we thought was right while everyone else doubted. Many of us were freaks & weirdos for most of our lives. Let's be honest - most of us probably still are. But we're the weirdos with motherfucking conviction. We're the freaks willing to put it all on the line for a belief, because maybe there's still something worth hoping and fighting for in this clown world. We were right. You can stay humble while you stack sats tomorrow. Today you pat yourself on the back. You text your brother with an "I fucking told you so." You look at yourself in the mirror and smile at a motherfucking winner.

Bitcoin this close to an ATH before halving is unprecedented. We're in new territory, anon.

Hey plebs that have been stacking hard these past few years - I hope you're enjoying this. You earned any additional freedom Bitcoin will ultimately give you, and your children will thank you for it. ๐Ÿค™๐Ÿงก

GM! ๐Ÿค™ I've been training hard this winter, trying to get rid of excess body fat while building muscle. Still a long way to go, but I'm up ~25lbs since the summer! Tried on a couple old dress shirts and they were very tight around the shoulders, arms, and chest. ๐Ÿ˜‚ One day at a time.

It's incredible how people can exist beside each other in space & time, while simultaneously living in alternate realities.
