He's a trader/investor, not a bitcoiner cypherpunk freedom-fighter anti-statist... He's obssesed with fiat and investments. He said that Bitcoin is "risky" and that he only has a small percentage of Bitcoin allocation in his "portfolio". He prefers to hold a lot of stocks and other assets for "risk allocation" because he views bitcoin as a risky asset.. In other words, he doesn't understand Bitcoin, he's just a trader / "investor", like all others Twitter influencers.
All cypherpunks are on Nostr, not on permissioned centralized censored service Twatter with a business model of national state collusion and psychological manipulation via privacy invasive data collection and targeted advertising.
Just search, you will find more good people to follow :)

Surround yourself with people who value and respect you, or who are likely to improve you. Declutter everyone else. Your circle decreases in size but increases in value. Apply this for both offline and online.
Most "bitcoiners" are in fact just traders/investors (= gamblers), they don't care about freedom or sovereignty, they just want to get rich quick so they can sell their coins back to fiat and go crazy with consumerism.
There are not many true bitcoiners then, or? :)
Bitcoin maxis are scarce, scarcer than bitcoin it self.
The person who told you that doesn't know what they're talking about. Apple is a closed cage, they don't permit the installation of other operating systems on their devices. GrapheneOS will never be compatible with iPhones. It exclusively supports Google Pixels and nothing else.
Switch to GrapheneOS as daily driver. Stripped-back iPhone for legacy fiat/banking guff.
You can use your fiat/banking on your GrapheneOS, no need to keep your old iPhone.
Partitioning Macbook to run Fedora Asahi - gradually move across work before going all-in.
This is the way.
Wiped MacOS from Mac Mini to run as a secondary node.
Why do you need a secondary node?
Consider a non-Apple desktop as daily driver by 2025

Most people are stuck in the Apple jail with several Apple (spy)devices and don't know how to get out of that misery. To avoid dealing with the unsatisfactory feeling they lie to themselves by claiming how beautiful, nice and shiny the Apple cage looks like, how well the devices harmonize with each other and what a crap the Android open source project is. That's called cognitive dissonance.
In the end, the choice is yours: you can either blindly trust big-tech companies like Apple with your personal information, location and your freedom, or you can take proactive steps to protect yourself and be sovereign. The latter may require more effort, but isn't it worth it for the peace of mind?
Glad you are switching away from Apple prison @davidw 👍
