"If you don't self-custody your Bitcoin, you don't own Bitcoin. If you don't own Bitcoin, you don't own money. If you don't own money, someone else owns it for you. And if someone else owns money for you, YOU ARE A SLAVE." Francis Pouliot image

As $hitty as it sounds, this is easier said than done. Completely detaching from the existing money system takes balls of steal.

So is being a moral and righteous personal during degenerate times in general. That does not negate the duty to do so.
Call me a retarded slave then, because when I leave this world for good, it’ll be owning nothing… like all of us. Can’t take your money with you, and that includes Bitcoin. I only say this to remind that there are layers of freedom beyond which none of us can even begin to control. Therefore, relax a bit about your money, everyone. :)
It’s mostly a larp unless you’re one of the few ppl that actually need to fully opt out

God wishes for us to serve him through keeping his commandments, one of those being not to use murderous thievery money.

True, and in the meantime, keep stacking sats for future generations benefit! :)
and if the feds know how much you have and with whom you transact because you still use a public, transparent ledger, you are still a slave.
Exactly. Monero users dont know privacy. they rely on it out of the box. probably use iphones too ROFL. You cant seem to fathom how Bitcoin can be purchased or acquired privately. This is why you need Monero. You guys seem to only be aware of banker exchanges like Bull Bitcoin as a method of acquiring Bitcoin. Thats pretty sad to be honest. But hey if you give me your date of birth, address, a copy of your ID and your first tooth you lost.....then just MAYBE i'll answer your question and provide you with some education. I bet you run monero on Windows 11 lol
