When is the Dollar (and Euro) going to collapse? It already is collapsing in front of your eyes. It just happens slowly, so you might not have noticed yet. But in the last 50 years the Dollar lost over 90% of it’s value. Bitcoin is replacing all fiat currencies in front of your eyes. Right now. Bitcoin is taking over. @Anil @jack mallers

Bitcoin doesn't care about our nations it doesn't care about the boundaries drawn by our imaginations it doesn't care about our flags or our affiliations it won't acknowledge differences it sees no separations it won't discriminate by city state country or continent it has no opinions no beliefs no language and no argument it doesn't have one it doesn't want to change your mind it doesn't have a strategy or legacy to leave behind Bitcoin is the truth, not my truth, or your truth, or even our truth it is the truth, it is math it is not an opinion someone has it is a fact it is a bridge between the future and past it is a way to make our value last it is a bank account in cyberspace away from any central banks or nation states that print the fiat currency devaluing what people make and make no mistake it's no mistake money represents time if they expand the supply your money's worth less over time which means your time is worth less over time inflation is a consequence of legalized crime they are stealing our lives that's how the systems designed so every year a dollar made and saved is losing what, a dime and this adds up over time as purchase power declines which makes stock markets rise next to unemployment lines and even if we get ahead we're always one step behind because we're underneath their bottom line we're hypnotized until we only follow dollar signs we put ourselves in debt on credit lines and borrow just to fund our picture perfect lives we borrow why so we can buy something that we don't like and pressing people we don't like then put off paying full price until the interest rates are hiked we wind up paying twice but 2020 brought us hindsight it's like the blind leading the blind right they sent us checks that we paid for ourselves after the supermarket doubled all the food they put on shelves and since everything's financialized everyone's incentivized to spend their cash on assets or invest in something centralized it's getting harder to survive but we're distracted cuz the revolution's televised it's interactive cuz the world is dematerialized it's all online so they feed us lies in real time while we pretend we feel fine but Bitcoin doesn't care it doesn't brag it doesn't boast it doesn't want to drive a Lambo next to the Amalfi Coast you will never make it happy it's not up when it's up it doesn't have a fragile ego or a need to be loved it doesn't want to moon it doesn't want to mine with diamond hands it just does block after block it has no other plans you will never hurt its feelings it's not down when it's down it doesn't want your validation it just solves the next equation and that's what makes it so special no one controls what it will be is it a global store of value or digital property is it the internet's first real native currency is it all of the above or something we have yet to see cuz no matter what it is you can't deny that it is free and isn't that democracy disguised as a technology isn't that a tool to tackle rising inequality isn't that a moral reason to be using energy imagine you're in Venezuela and the Bolivar is tanked imagine you're in Argentina and they're running on the banks imagine you're Ukrainian and watching incoming tanks you either stay and fight or leave with only what your bags can bring a refugee without a home without a land without your things so you carry all you own as you flee with your beliefs but now imagine you had everything you'd saved inside your mind so you can take it with you even as you leave the rest behind you can store it on a USB or memorize a line so it redefines the very meaning of the word mine see strangely no one's noticed yet but BTC's the only tech without a CEO PR team or offices that's why maxis market through obnoxious memes and call it work bitcoin is a decentralized global monetary system protected by an incorruptible software that's defended by a distributed network which is hard to fit on a shirt let's go with Bitcoin is hope or have fun staying broke it's like a digital immune system that's protecting the host but the host doesn't care, it never has it never will it doesn't celebrate success it doesn't want to close the deal it's not on your side or my side, it doesn't have a side so it's on every side which makes it an idea that will never die This is the best poem about Bitcoin, written by IN-Q.

There are 2 types of people: - Those that want to know more - Those that want to defend what they already know So many people are afraid of changing their mind, when most of their beliefs arent even theirs to begin with If ur an economist, but still dismiss Bitcoin: STUDY MORE

The Capital Strip Mine by Allen Farrington is a thorough critique of modern economic thinking, focusing on the dangers of prioritizing consumption over investment, the consequences of financialization, and the dysfunctions of a debt-based monetary system. https://medium.com/@allenfarrington/the-capital-strip-mine-ec627e9fe40a

The #Bitcoin blockchain is pseudonymous, not anonymous. With KYC at exchanges you already lose a big part of your privacy. After using KYC, use coinjoins, the lightning network and/or ecash to get very good forward privacy. @ZEUS @Phoenix Wallet @calle @Minibits @Boardwalk @Wasabi Wallet

Today’s tech giants are the new robber barons—not of oil or railroads, but of our attention and perception. Platforms monetize our data and control what we see, trading freedom for “frictionless” connection. Open protocols like Nostr offer a way to reclaim digital sovereignty and resist this new empire. Protocol over platform. Freedom over control. View article →

New research from the University of Salento challenges the mainstream narrative about Bitcoin’s environmental impact. An econometric study by Jacopo Graziuso found that in countries where Bitcoin is present, emissions and overall energy consumption actually decrease. The analysis—covering data from 171 countries between 2009 and 2024—shows that Bitcoin’s presence is linked to a reduction of 39 megatons of CO₂ equivalent. Why? Bitcoin mining often seeks out the cheapest and cleanest energy sources, acting as a “buyer of last resort” for surplus or stranded power. Examples include reactivating hydro plants in Italy, supporting renewable microgrids in Africa, and stabilizing power grids in Texas. Innovations like immersion cooling and heat reuse further improve mining efficiency and sustainability. The thesis argues that the real issue is not energy consumption itself, but pollution—and that Bitcoin can actually drive the adoption of renewables and help optimize energy use worldwide. As mining technology and grid integration improve, Bitcoin could become part of the solution to global energy and emissions challenges. View article →

We don’t need to use less energy—we need to generate and use more of it to boost global prosperity. The key is switching to better, cleaner sources. #Bitcoinmining is set to play a major role in driving the transition to greener energy. An amazing example:

Gas flaring, the practice of burning off excess natural gas at oil extraction sites, has long been a contentious issue due to its environmental and...

Bitcoin is digital, not virtual. The rules of Bitcoins difficulty adjustment do not simulate physical laws, they are brought into existence because of physical laws. @Gigi

Did you know that billions of people worldwide don't use a bank account? Here are some countries with a high percentage of unbanked adults: - Pakistan: 79% - Egypt: 73% - Nigeria: 55% - Indonesia: 48% - Bangladesh: 47% - El Salvador: 36% These are just a few examples; many more countries have high rates of unbanked individuals. #Bitcoin could offer an alternative for the "underbanked" and "unbanked" worldwide.
