Son: Dad, there is no such thing as over-production in Bitcoin. Dad: Son, what about under-consumption? Son: In a free market, everything is in perfect balance. #Bitcoin

Son: Dad, Bitcoin is Bitcoin because of bitcoin (BTC). Dad: Son, once you understand that concept, you understand many Bitcoin concepts much better. Son: Yeah, everything makes much more sense. Dad: Sadly, it takes a huge effort to get there. Son: Sadly? As if it was part of the plan. ;) #Bitcoin

Son: 4 things not to operate intoxicated: 1. Firearms 2. Heavy machinery 3. Vehicles 4. Bitcoin That's my message for today, Dad. Talk tomorrow. #Bitcoin

Son: Dad, you can spend a fraction of a bitcoin. Dad: Son, no, thank you. That is out of question. Son: The question is: What is your unit of account. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, do you have a list of decentralized altcoins to invest in? Son: Hi Dad, Sure, these are the top 3 decentralized shitcoins: 1. _______________________________ 2. _______________________________ 3. _______________________________ Dad: Son, okay, I got it... No altcoins. Bitcoin has become so expensive. Son: Dad, get some sats instead. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, imagine being hahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahaha haaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha haha. Son: Dad?

I'm laughing my head off. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, how do you use your Coldcard? Connected via USB or air gapped? Son: Hi Dad, I'm running my Coldcard wallet air gapped only. Dad: Son, are you connecting anything Bitcoin related to your computer? Son: Yes, the Bitcoin network, using port 8333. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, dollar gains from stocks, bonds and ETFs have distracted me from how powerful Bitcoin is. Then I was distracted about the increasing dollar value of my sats. It took me a while... Son: Hi Dad, This happens to most people. As long as you don't fall into the shitcoin trap, you're already one step ahead of many. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, wait until the people who just want to be left alone get involved. Son: Hi Dad, What do you mean? #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, what are "HD Bitcoin Wallets"? Son: Dad, by definition, wallets are private key and public key management systems. In the beginning, every key pair used had to be backed up individually. That's why many have reused addresses, which is bad for privacy, as you know. BIP-32 made Bitcoin better and introduced "HD wallets", which stands for "Hierarchical Deterministic", and not for "High Definition". With this BIP, it's possible to generate multiple addresses (public/private key pairs) derived from a single source of random data (=entropy). Dad: Why was this introduced in the first place? Son: It makes backing up the random bits of data much easier and safer, especially if combined with BIP-39, which introduced the mnemonic seed words, which is just entropy in a human-readable form. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, what do you answer to those who ignore bitcoin? Son: H F S P Dad: Son? Son: Dad, I would answer "Have Fun Staying Poor". Dad: This seems to be another formulation of WEF's "You'll own nothing, and you'll be happy" slogan. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, a man who does not take care of his family cannot be rich. Take care of your family. Son: Hi Dad, I truly agree. Generational wealth is my final goal. Dad: Good, but do not ruin your health along the way. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, your best teacher is your last mistake. Son: Hi Dad, I disagree with your take. Bitcoin is the best teacher. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, who works actually on Bitcoin to make it better and would "doing nothing" make it worse? Son: Hi Dad, Everybody can help to make Bitcoin better. Nobody can make Bitcoin worse. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, how do you know Bitcoin has a hard cap of 21M BTC? Son: Hi Dad, It's defined in Bitcoin's source code. Dad: The question is: How do you know that hard cap will stay 21M? Son: The answer is: Because of game theory. Who would want to join a Bitcoin chain with modified hard cap? That would no longer be Bitcoin. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, you often mention the term "BIP". What is a "BIP" and what is it good for? Son: Hi Dad, "BIP" stands for "Bitcoin Improvement Proposal". It's a design document to introduce new features or information to Bitcoin. Dad: Can everyone participate and submit a BIP? Son: Basically, yes. See BIP-2 for the full process. Dad: Son, next time I have an idea, I will write a BIP. ;-) Son: Everyone is invited to contribute to make Bitcoin better. It's a voluntary system, and we are all Satoshi (except for Craig Wright), so, why not?? #Bitcoin

Son: Dad, dying young is not a retirement plan. Get some bitcoin. Dad: Nah. Son: You can buy a fraction of a bitcoin. Dad: Son, hell, no!! Uhm, I meant yes. No, on the retirement thing. Yes, get some bitcoin. #Bitcoin

Dad: Son, buying things one cannot afford is the height of unreasonableness. Son: Yes, Dad. Fiat did this. #Bitcoin

Son: Dad, we just got the new car. :-) Dad: Son, I am glad for you and I wish you many safe trips with it. However, you should have some spare diesel, blankets, food and water in that car. Always. Son: Yeah, always have backups and a plan B. #Bitcoin

Son: Hi Dad, "Not stacked sats are not realized wishes." People don't quite understand how immoral that is if they already heard of Bitcoin. Dad: Son, something like the lack of self-care? Son: Yes, you can look at it that way too. Or in other words: If you don't stack these Satoshis, you're stealing from your future. #Bitcoin
