If you look at #bitcoin from a mathematical or technical perspective and have an aversion to BS then you should try flying. Yes as in piloting an airplane. There is no BSing your way through it. You can’t stop or cut any corners because reality comes at you really fast. You will be confronted with your ego and have to deal with it. No amount of talk will take you from takeoff to landing, only actions. And to get proficient at that you’ll need to provide PoW. It’s a rewarding activity. "There are old pilots and bold pilots but there are no old, bold pilots.”

Bastiat’s grandson wishes you a happy new year! I’m just your regular pleb that doesn’t have a podcast and works a fiat job but is bullish AF on #bitcoin because of the community. There’s someone like me in every country. You’re not doing this alone.

Be flexibel. Have wealth you can easily transport. Have different passports. Have different employment options worldwide. Speak 3 languages. Don’t own, rent. Use nostr. Read books. Talk to people you trust. Focus on family. That’s it. That’s what I’ve done and I was just your regular employee with a family, a mortgage for a semidetached house and a 10 year old SUV. You can do this.
