I have written a few pieces on #Bitcoin over the years, but I am most proud of this one, The Ethics of Immutability because it captures what I believe is largely missing from the current movementâupholding the lesson Satoshi left for us...đ§” https://t.co/xeVeoXeKqE

A common refrain has emerged in the Bitcoin community: fix the money, fix the world. While there is every reason to be optimistic about Bitcoinâs impact on society it is not enough to rely on lines...

Ten thousand altcoins. It reminds me of the dot com craze of 1997â2000. I know, I know. They have âutility.â They have uses, applicationsâŠ

Square did their part, now letâs do ours. For bitcoin to become everyday money, merchants need to accept it. But first, theyâll need a reason to. We've put together the resources to help anyone make the case that only bitcoin can defeat credit card fees: https://t.co/fYkCARD5MD

I remember interviewing Luthando from Mosel Bay. He said he used bitcoin for payments because carrying cash could lead to assault and robbery But I was like âBro, never spend your Bitcoin!â âBut I have to eat and buy things, and I donât want to get beat upâ âBut 40% CAGRâŠor

The sov/moe debate is so tiring. We (Americans) have such a myopic view of Bitcoin. Can we dare to acknowledge Bitcoinâs impact outside of the US? Can we dare to acknowledge that its âfunctionâ may be different for Peter and Jordi than it is for the Brazilian boy?⊠and thatâs
Peter Thiel said Bitcoinâs founding ideology isnât âfunctioning as intended.â Heâs right and thatâs a good thing. The same way the internet evolved from anarchy to accessibility, Bitcoin and AI are shifting from rebellion to inclusion. Freedom grows through participation. đ

Fix the Money, Heal the System argues that Canadaâs social, economic, political, and environmental challenges share a common root: our broken âfiatâ currency and a monetary system that rewards debt, speculation, and extraction. Bitcoin, by contrast, is a global public good and a

I recommended taking the time to read this as a refresher for why we're here. Bitcoin is much more than NGU technology.
I share one bearish observation on here and people lose their f-ing minds. They also assume I'm short. No. I'm just not a shill. The recent viral piece about how bitcoin is in IPO mode and we all need to relax seemed to me pretty accurate. Bitcoin is distributing and that's

Great job @natbrunell and bringing this issue to your audience. As the recent Cambodia success showed, the core of this issue is foreign government officials allowing or even facilitating industrial scale organized crime targeting American citizens. And theyâre doing it using

The Trump admin wonât be in office forever. The GOP wonât always control Congress. Having Bitcoin as a partisan tool is not a helpful strategy. @TPB_Inc exists to break through this narrative for the left who have dismissed it or been sidelined. https://t.co/jYlQaZ4l86
