It is, without a doubt, a key part of Bitcoin’s early history.

This is a regrettable turn of events; ‘Boltz’ was doing an excellent job.

I earned my first Sats in the "THUNDR" games.

Before I made my first exchange from fiat to Bitcoin – and without really knowing what Bitcoin was at the time – I won a few Sats and then looked into what I could do with them.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that; it’s not as though they don’t rest in peace because they weren’t influenced by that ideology. The greatest proof that the Church, Christ and all that is a fabrication is that humanity is far older than those concepts, that is to say. They aren’t some absolute truth, but rather a story that someone made up at some point in history – a story that was later used by the elites to rule, maintain control and, above all, keep the sheep in line so they wouldn’t be capable of questioning or thinking deeply.

There's one thing I'm absolutely certain of: Bitcoin works, it makes sense, and it's here to stay. I've known that for a long time, and it's not going anywhere. What does cause me uncertainty, and what I've found harder to admit, is something else entirely: I don't know if the world will ever grasp it in time, or at the necessary speed.

I agree with this view entirely.

What I see doesn't particularly encourage me. Adoption is progressing, but slowly. Much more slowly than it should if people truly paid attention to what's happening with money, with inflation, with the systems that are supposed to protect them

I do find it difficult to get on board with this idea. Let me explain why:

• I don’t think adoption is progressing slowly; you just have to look back and see where we’ve come from to fully understand where we are now.
• People don’t understand Bitcoin simply because they don’t want to make the effort to learn about it; they fail to see inflation and the problems caused by government-issued money for the same reason: nobody wants to make the effort to learn, but everyone wants to make money and get ahead. It’s illogical.
• especially people who are financially secure in the FIAT world. Those people will be the last to understand Bitcoin, because they’ve been indoctrinated with their unit of account ($) and that prevents them from realising how Bitcoin could be of help to them.

for those who like to write rhymes.

This is avoidable; I remember reading something in one of the @DarthCoin guides about how to create genuinely private, secure wallets without having to buy any device that might later turn out to have vulnerabilities.

I don’t think so; this is one of the most absurd religions still in existence. Their belief is that they must live by certain rules whilst on earth, so that when they die, "GOD" will accept them into paradise, where they will live for all eternity. Hahaha

I've seen a lot of people mentioning Claude.

He's pretty good, isn't he?

Which AI do you pay for?

Batman: "The Dark Knight" is really good.

"Inception". This one’s brilliant too.

me too

That’s a great idea; I’ll give the app a go and let you know how it went.

Do you think he can win the championship again this year? It was a brilliant race.

It’s a beautiful cat; I love its spots, which look like a leopard’s.

I’ve been storing that sort of information on external hard drives. That way, I avoid paying for a cloud service and always have that data to hand.

Until recently, those traditional media outlets only talked about Bitcoin to spread lies or highlight negative aspects – the classic ‘Bitcoin is only for criminals’.

Of course, the world is changing; we can now see that, in a way, they’re actually promoting Bitcoin.

That’s a very good point; prediction markets are driven by statistics and data, whereas games of chance are driven more by emotion than by logic.

I completely agree with what you’ve said; we’ve reached a point of no return. And the really bad thing is that people don’t seem to realise just how harmful this digital format is that they’re forcing on us.

I recently watched a video by someone who mentioned exactly what you’re saying about video games, and how they killed off the physical format to pull a fast one on us with the new digital format, where you no longer buy the game, as we did 10 or 20 years ago, but instead you simply rent the right to use it – a right that can be taken away at any moment.

I can’t bring myself to consider this possibility; Bitcoin is already my main currency, and I don’t hold anything else apart from Bitcoin.

woke politics and performative activism

Messi is one of the leading figures in these movements.

Perhaps that is why many people do not like him.
