Thanks sir, I made it :)
Si te importa lo que los demás digan de vos, entonces te estás auto-censurando para quedar bien con completos extraños, lo cual es malo. Nadie debería gobernar tu vida más que vos. Los ass-milkers fueron definidos arriba. Si vos te consideras uno, no hay nada que pueda hacer para cambiar eso. Si no te consideras uno, es todo lo que importa.
Debes estudiar sobre el sindrome del impostor y dejar esa mala práctica de creer que tu trabajo es menos. Tu trabajo sobre el comunismo es la viva esencia de que sabes de lo que hablas, honra tus palabras y tu trabajo.
About the way of life I have no opinions since that is something more personal. Aside from that, a musician replied to my answer of how to promote v4v in a marketing-side thing. You should check #803340
Oh God, didn't know this one. Once again, this proves the leave the science to scientists is blatant bullshit.
I always tell to people that they should shut the notifications and leave only for important. People prefer dopamine...but that's for another battle.
Makes me really sad every time I hear this kind of cases, particularly academics. I tried to publish in universities (made one) but then I realized I'm going to accomplish my goals better writing in blogs rather than papers because I have friends that I know they write >100 papers and they see no revenue from that.
I was reading Nuclear War: A Scenario and had to stop and check some crazy shit that's in the book. What the author mentioned it was truly scary and...correct. And now, I don't want to go back and read, I'm sitting here with my terere and thinking about a nuclear bomb that's going to explode and kill thousands of people in a second1 with no knowledge of we going to die.
I want to tell you more but count as spoiler for the book that's hihgly recommended.

Literally, the shit is real. It's has been estimated that almost 450.000 people will die in 3 seconds. ↩
This artwork always amuse me because, drunk as he was at that time, he expelled each word that today all bitcoiner feel.
I don't know what else to say. And maybe that would leave a mark and help him move eventually.
Remember fren, your time is like bitcoin, scarce. Would you spend more bitcoins for this friend? Is it worth? Some people just don't, others maybe. Up to you how to go.
So, let's get down deeper to understand what's going on.
First at all, what is a bitcoin toxic maximalist (BTM)?, answering your question of What is the true value of being a "Toxic Bitcoin MAXI"?
A BTM is the person who teachs about bitcoin and promotes better quality money to ensure wealth protection in the long term1. Mostly, BTM never offers any single proposal that includes other currencies 2 or any type of investment because there's a new state-to-the-art new killer-app modular blockchain that can make your money faster and all the marketing buzzword that have included. This is not only in the crypto space but also in the TradFi markets where you have plenty options in stocks, bonds, etc etc.
So, given the previous explanation, let's answer these questions:
How does telling people to "Have Fun Staying Poor" help Bitcoin or the wider population?
Bitcoin doesn't need your/my help nor anyone, it's the other way, you are the one who needs bitcoin. Telling people HFSP is the consequence, when a person rejects the notion or idea that using bitcoin is good for their wealth without any logical reason3.
Say you want to help someone onboarding to buy their first sats and this...guy tells you that bitcoin:
- Doesn't have any value
- Ponzi scam
- Mining is destroying the world
- Better buy web3 killer app coin
I can think many scenarios. As you mentioned, educate needs compassion and understanding, as someone who orangepilled lots of people, I'm trying my best all the time. But the scenario is scary because people want rich-quick-scheme and fall in whatever shady scenario that doesn't have bitcoin.
Happens the next thing, when you say the things as it is (aka shitcoinery or low-time preference) people calls you toxic because...telling the truth. And the truth is bitcoin is we want to see the world rebuilt in bitcoin standard: open, permissionless, transparent. But people come to the space not to bring something to build but more shining things.
I think we can all agree we would like to see Bitcoin in the hands of more people. How do we get there?
How to get there? Offer a better solution to people, some people will listen to your words and start using bitcoin. Some people will just prefer to keep using the allmighty USD and TradFi, others will start exploring the new modular-blockchain with multiple features. You already spoken and they chose the other path. Well...say goodbye to them and have fun staying poor.

Wow. Nice views. To strenght the debate...
I think its clear that bitcoin was designed to replace fiat money which is created and controlled by the banking systems of the world. (...) But IMO banks are the biggest evil in the world. Central banks are a different story. Far to much power is centralized in these institutions and bitcoin I hope will destroy that system
Agreed. Institutions around bitcoin is inevitable at least for the next 10 years of development. I think this prevails because banks are in the business of looking profit working with currencies...so, in the end, banks are going to do what they always does, well...at least what they were doing it for the last 500 years: follow the money.
Do I think banks have lost their moral compass? Yes sir, I think banks today are not here to help mankind and accelerate transactions or onboard people. Banks are ethic and morally broken1 but that doesn't mean they lost their capacity to transform themselves.

About the evasion taxes, you have a point sir...now..
If somebody wants to start a war, will have to come to you with an invoice to pay (with your BTC). Are you willing to do that?
Good Lord, no. I see no reason for wars.
How many others will do it to be a feasible war?
War is hell but also a political tool. Your enemies embrace also bitcoin because they can buy more weapons, so...many other are willing to do that1.
if you use Bitcoin as money every fucking day of your life and never touch anymore fiat (banks).
A big and outstanding
if
you put it sir. In the short and medium term, it won't.In the long run, I hope so.
In a Bitcoin full world, govs (in actual form) do not have any power and nobody will fund them anymore. We are literally debanking them
Wrong. You're not debanking them, you're forcing them to evolve into new ways. Of course, these (new) types of governments will be less authoritarian and (probably will) exclude their monetaries policies from their framework. However, telling they don't have power is like saying oxygen has no power over me because I stopped breathing.
Next time just send this guide (link)
I zapped for that article to you like a year ago because I loved it.

Don't forget in the cyberwar space that Lazarus works exclusively with bitcoin. ↩
My bad. Frank wrote initially three books; Dune, Messiah and Children of Dune. Then three more: God Emperor, Heretics of Dune and finally Chapterhouse. Right now, I'm reading 4/6 intial saga which is God Emperor. Worth it.
Denis Villeneuve's Dune is evolution pure and simple. It's how you build something awesome from an awesome book. I do really like the 80s version but since I have to put sats in it, that's my answer.
Is it accurate? No, it's not.
Do I care? No, because Denis didn't destroy the esence of Arrakis and the characters were beautifully composed in the movie. Yes, it's not like the book1 however, the artwork worth those little arrangements.
