What's the value of a neutral, global, incorruptible, permissionless, instant payment and store of value system? Apparently it's $1t? I don't know, it seems to me that it is worth a lot more than that in a world with trillions of dollars of transactions done daily on a political, location limited, fraudulent, permissioned, slow payment and theft of value system?

Crazy to think that people believe being able to save the money you have earned tax free is some kind of gift from our generous overlords. Disgusting

Back when money was actually money in my country (made from silver). Going to either exchange it for the new money (sats), or put it in a frame next to the Bitcoin Whitepaper as an ornament in my office Thoughts?

Answer: Give me your Bitcoin and I will give you gold for it lol

Would have been really worried about where my government is driving my country at the moment if I didn't have my savings in Bitcoin Still worried about the people I love that don't get Bitcoin

We all know how this is going to end. Talks about "doing it right" isn't going to make those in charge do it right. There is no incentive for them to do it right. There is only incentive to loot The only question is, how will ordinary South Africans protect themselves? https://businesstech.co.za/news/budget-speech/752827/warning-over-south-africas-r500-billion-money-pot/

Bitcoin communities/organizations in ZA: Bitcoin Ekasi Bitcoin Witsand Bitcoin Ubuntu Can give them a google and support their cause, if you like Also, comment any other bitcoin communities you know of, please

Only been here for a couple of days. Took some time to understand and setup the basics It's so refreshing to be here. The news, the zaps and, of course, the memes. It's just great Haven't seen a single post about "btc going to 1m" or "btc will melt faces at 100k" and crap like that Guess that's just the difference between people buying bitcoin to chase more dollars and the people buying it to change the world GM
