Unfortunately, this is not understood in Europe, and that's how things are going for us. image

Stroking your children's hair, enjoying the company of your dog, listening to the voice of the woman you love, feeling the sea breeze on your skin or the warmth of the sun on your face—these are things that money can't buy, and they are the things that matter. Let's not forget why we are here. We are not in Bitcoin to get rich; we are here for honor, because all the things I have described above will be better enjoyed if you live with honor.

This will be the last message from this account. I give up. The system has won. Bitcoin has been useless all these years. If you want to live comfortably, it's better to accept the herd mentality and live like everyone else. Today I'm going to start my new plan: doughnuts, fiat money, sofa, vaccines, and TV. It's been a pleasure.

Este chaval es de los pocos que entiende de verdad el problema de las pensiones en España. Vamos a acabar devorados por el propio sistema: un modelo en el que los partidos políticos dependen cada vez más del voto de los pensionistas, que además son mayoría. A la vez, el Estado necesita inmigración para sostener un esquema de reparto que, si la base de cotizantes no crece, se tambalea. Y en paralelo se destinan ayudas públicas que, para muchos, alimentan el “efecto llamada”. ¿El resultado? Más gasto, más presión fiscal para financiar pensiones y políticas sociales, y más deuda. Y cuando la deuda crece, también lo hace la inflación. Sinceramente, ni en la peor película de terror imaginé que acabaríamos así. image

Here are some examples of pay slips in Spain so you can see how much the state takes and how much it costs the company to employ a worker. As you can see, it's around 50%. Is this democracy? Communism can be disguised as many things, even democracy, but when someone else decides 50% of your life for you, I seriously doubt that it's democracy, let alone freedom. Add to that the fact that you'll pay 21% VAT on everything you buy, plus countless other taxes. Once you lose all your ability to save, Bitcoin is useless, unless you use it to pay for your daily expenses, which few people understand.

The current quantum threat to Bitcoin is the new state attack.

The first rule of Bitcoiners should be to never pay taxes on your Bitcoins, which implies that you should never sell them for fiat currency again, or if you do, it should be on P2P markets. To spend your Bitcoins, spend them at places that accept Bitcoin payments. That is the ideal situation and what you should strive for. If we manage to live solely on Bitcoin, then we have won; otherwise, we are losing.

Uncomfortable truths learned in this cycle: - The price target was 120k, which was stated here in 2023, but once again everyone believed the charlatans who predicted 200k/300k and 1M. - We underestimated silver and gold, myself included, despite being a former gold bug. - Trump has deceived you all; there is no crypto revolution as such, nor is there a strategic bitcoin reserve. What there is is a stablecoin revolution, or in other words, growing demand for dollars and financing for the United States. - For years it was said that tether was a scam, and now it turns out that tether is the key to everything and is financing the US government. Tether is not going to fall; it is the new form of financing for the US and, incidentally, tether is the most profitable company in the world. - Monero grows stronger every time it is rejected by the system. It is a clear message, but Bitcoiners are happier with ETFs and the price suppressed through paper Bitcoin. Bitcoiners are not as smart as you think. This year has been a good lesson in humility.

Here you realize that Scamourai's followers are either intellectually deficient or simply scammers who take people for fools. My track record is as follows: - I have never been a supporter of centralized coordinators because they are subject to government laws and because there is no guarantee that they will execute the code they claim to execute. - I am aware of Joinmarket's limitations and that it is not easy to use and requires guidelines. - I discovered poor management of the Tor circuits in Samourai that allowed all inputs and outputs to be linked to the same entity, which its followers refused to admit, and which Ashigaru admitted and claims to have corrected (I have not wasted any more time reviewing Ashigaru's code). That said, all cases of Wasabi de-anonymization have been due to poor practice by “criminals” in the subsequent consolidation of addresses. This flaw occurs in Scamourai, Wasabi, Joinmarket, Joinstr, or whatever Coinjoin tool you use. And now Scamourai's followers will say, “But we have postmix tools!” Sure, they're not useful when you steal 1,000 bitcoins, right? And their use is not mandatory either. So let's not talk nonsense. Scamopurai has always been what privacy should not be: a business. If you have the guts, stop the sibyl attacks and remove the coordination fee, but of course, that would dismantle your little racket. And also stop collecting xpubs, but anyway, that's another issue, which shows your total incompetence, as it's clear in Dojo that xpubs go directly to the database. So now you know, guys, attack the Dojo servers to get your users' xpubs. That said, small users should forget about this crap and use Lightning, which is more private. image

The world is changing very quickly, and not even we bitcoiners are prepared.

Save this note. Over the next 10 years, keep a close eye on Spain, as you will witness the greatest degeneration of a country in the West. - Uncontrolled immigration and replacement of the local population. - Unsustainable pensions. - Draconian taxes. - Non-existent public services. - Political corruption. In short, the fall of a country. Many will think that France is the same, but there is a difference: French citizens stand up to their government, while we Spaniards do not.
