Still my favorite meme 😂🤣

You're only a serious Bitcoiner if you build your client from your own code. You're out there using core or knots like a loser! *Satire*

I learned my lesson last cycle, with 401K/work investment my only exception, there's no reason to hold anything but Bitcoin. I will always yeet my spare dollars into the orange coin. Still can't bring myself to buy MSTR or any other derivative of Bitcoin.

Me and the wife were doing the math the other night... In 4 years, because of price appreciation, I was able to stack about 3 times my yearly salary. And people still think they shouldn't buy.

I think after listening to both sides of OP_Return I'm more in a place of... Bitcoin doesn't give a shit about my opinion and that's probably a good thing. It will keep on ticking. Valid transactions will remain valid whether or not we want them. JPEGers will run out of money due to fees. Miners will mine blocks with the maximum amount of fees possible. Some people won't relay spam transactions. And everything will just continue to work regardless of what you or I think. I'm still running Knots for now... But if Knots ever tries to fork off, I'll switch back to core. I might actually play around with the datacarrier size just to see what kind of mempool I construct.

Everyone wants to be early to an investment... But at the same time everyone wants things to work perfectly with no hiccups. Lightning isn't perfect, but it gets better every day. If you can't see the future of something... You can't be early.

Bought popcorn with #Bitcoin today at the farmer's market. Always feels good!

Still can't bring myself to buy MSTR...I don't have 401K though.. I'm talking my positive cash flows. Orange coin or bust.

Can't tell if the Bitcoin core drama is worth being interested. I run both knots and core. I can see an argument for switching everything to knots. But ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Talked to a group shilling Microsoft copilot: "What does this even do? You're asking for $30/month/user you better be giving me $60/month of value/user." *Crickets*

Hope you consolidated UTXOs when you had the chance. Mempool is starting to fill up again. Combination of more transactions and bad luck on the mining side. This is what makes #Bitcoin beautiful.

"A fool and his #Bitcoin are soon parted." Bitcoin is the ultimate long term deferral of gratification. As frustrating as it can be to wait for price appreciation, it humbles you. You know you've got the winner, but do you have the discipline to hang on while others catch up?
