Always gets quiet around the
#bitcoin
halving. I remember the first in 2012, Nov 28th reduced the first block reward from 50 to 25. Here is a pic from that day. We are all smiles secretly we weren’t sure if this first halving would work. Can you guess the early bitcoiners?

The game theory that will play out as other countries begin to desire a path to economic independence will be the most important global phenomenon of the 21st century.
I'm just gonna say it.
I think the "FacebookCoin" is an attempt by big tech, banks and credit card companies to lure people away from
#Bitcoin
into their "better, easier, crypto", which is nothing more than a fiat coin being masqueraded as crypto.
Millions will be fooled.
To those who joined our wonderful crypto world in the last 2 years and didn’t leave, you are now considered seasoned! Enjoy the next bull market, you deserve it. 🍸
Paypal launching a stablecoin will skyrocket
#Bitcoin
to at least $250,000 faster than it was supposed to, and
#Eth
likely will 10x on a faster timetable. Very exciting.
I have to say I'm so impressed with the level of knowledge of crypto from US Congressman and Congresswomen. They understand the difference between Libra and Bitcoin. They are worried about Libra, not

.
The US is about to print more money in the next two years than we've ever printed in the history in the world. Were about to spend more money and take on more debt than we've ever done.

Welcome, Paypal!
In surprised BSV is even listed anywhere. It’s an obvious scam controlled by an obvious scammer. It goes against the reason we are here in the first place. Delist BSV from all exchanges and let it die.

At the end of the day, your favorite celebrities like
@elonmusk
and others showed up late to the game. If they are such visionaries where were they from 2010-2015?
#bitcoin
doesn’t need your favors, it stands on its own.
It’s easy to be a “crypto expert” with “private trading groups” when everything is rising. Talk to the people we’re around in 2011, or even 2014, they will tell you whatsup. Most of these “experts” showed up less than a year ago.
Almost 10 years ago I discovered
#bitcoin
and made a conscious decision to make it my life’s work. I had a vision that if we created a financial system that didn’t require permission to join, it would completely change how humans work together. Satoshi would be proud of us all.
I spent some time at MCC where Epstein allegedly killed himself. All I’m gonna say is the guards know everything that goes on, nothing gets passed them. Nothing.
The Tether market cap is 2.4B out of a 510B USD market cap. Don’t trade on FUD and emotion. Now we know the dumping of the past few days has been insiders that knew of this. There is no need to be upset
I’m sick of these scam “crypto expert” ads on Twitter and Facebook from these scammer nobody’s who don’t even invest themselves. Maybe I’ll start my own newsletter just to clear the FUD and scams and give people real crypto information.
Honestly the best way to hold
#bitcoin
forever is to get 5 to 10 BTC and keep it in the cold storage that even you can’t access. I truly think that 5 to 10 Bitcoin will be super life-changing money in 20 years from now. Everything else just spend and use as you want
Facebook is launching their global crypto coin called “Libra”. What’s interesting is they are offering companies to pay $10m to become “validators”. If anything, it renders Ripple useless 😂. The first companies to create a LIBRA/BITCOIN exchange will make a killing!
It’s insane how little
#bitcoin
is actually in circulation, a little under 18m coins.
Think about how few that is.
That’s not even enough for every citizen of Cairo to have just 1 bitcoin.
All you need is 1 and that will be life changing.

#Bitcoin
and other privacy focused and decentralized crypto currencies are the biggest innovation of my lifetime. They literally take the power and control of money out of the hands of government and into the hands of people that use it.
#bitcoin
will now be accepted by anyone on the world. Find me someone who wouldn’t take bitcoin as payment if it meant getting the deal done. It’s an asset now, deal with it.

went from $1,000 to $20,000 ?
So what makes you think you’ll remember when it goes from $10,000 to $100,000 ?
Most bullish fucking statistic I've ever seen.
Every year, miners spend $4 BILLION Dollars securing the network.

“Transaction speeds” when debating
#bitcoin
vs other faux-crypto’s is red herring argument. There were plenty of fast ways to move money before bitcoin. That’s not why we’re here. We’re building a censorship resistant value network that can-never be controlled by a single party.
To the thousands of people retweeting Peter Schiff "forgetting his Bitcoin password", do you realize its a ploy for him to stay relevant and gain followers?
Bitcoin mining consumes roughly the same amount of electricity as Washington state—putting pressure on our power grids and worsening the

. We need to protect our planet and crack down on environmentally wasteful crypto mining practices.
I have to say, Im super impressed with Slovenia. The amount of talent, projects, innovation and generally good people that come out of that country is something to be noted.
This is the 1st ever four-module ASIC to ever mine on the

Haters gonna hate. I wear flip flops as a daily reminder that I can. It’s my way of always remembering that if I do something stupid I’ll have to go back to being a dishwasher.
Fun fact, In 1999, Nobel Prize winner Milton Friedman predicted the rise of Bitcoin. In an interview with NTU/F, Friedman suggested a future system that would allow “A method where buying on the Internet you can transfer funds from A to B, without A knowing B or B knowing A.”

Thanks Bitcoin
This was Feb 2012. The first
#Bitcoin
halving was still 10 months away. At this point the price was fun and games at $9.48. No one was getting rich or saying “we need to hold forever”. If you were building something, contributing, or just talking, you were providing value.
I love when
#Bitcoin
OTC buyers ask for a 5-10% discount. There is no discount for buying large amounts of Bitcoin. You are lucky if you get it at market rate from
@TradeBlock
as most large sellers either wont sell, or sell at a high premium. Everyone wants Bitcoin.
I’ve been preaching

from every rooftop since 2010 and only now are people taking me seriously. Is this what Noah felt? THE FLOOD IS COMING. Prepare now.
At this point, almost 2 years later, Im pissed off that major companies still refuse to adopt
