When I open Twitter and see questions like “Will 1 BTC be enough to retire?” I immediately cringe. It’s the same recycled engagement bait every time, and you know the Dan Held types are cashing in on it with ad revenue.

Almost nobody outside of #nostr considers Bitcoin a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. I would like to see more people change that narrative.

Who knows. We do know that 100 Bitcoins is enough.
Zaps are generational wealth

Great Grandparents: "Save money for a rainy day"
Boomer Parents: "But how much will the rainy day cost? It might not even rain. No one knows! I'll spend the money on what I want today. The government will handle rainy days & my unemployability, and my future bankruptcy & all that. Actually I'm already in debt but still, I want to buy a vacation house so...yeah it's fine!"
My point here is fuck hodl...just treat bitcoin like money & save some for a "rainy day".
