Bitcoin won't replace banks. Banks will become Bitcoin apps. Just like record labels became content providers for playlists - still relevant, just no longer essential. Infrastructure always wins and institutions always adapt. The only question is whether they adapt from

Every Argentine always knew two prices: the official one and the real one. Every Bitcoiner now know two values: what things cost in fiat and what they're worth in sats. This is how humans navigate broken systems. You play the game with THEIR money. You keep score with REAL

The son of the author of The Sovereign Individual just said he wouldn't touch sterling right now. Jacob Rees-Mogg is a UK cabinet minister basically saying "the money is fucked" Not in those words of course but that's what it means when insiders warn you off their own currency.

Fernando Nikolić 🇦🇷 🟠 I am mostly loathe to spend my sats but I do from time to time. Bought a Bitaxe last week with BTC. Don't regret spending it. But the truth is if I did the math in 2 years time I'l be kicking myself. Everything you buy with Bitcoin (until its undergone full price discovery)

Spent the last 3 years living everywhere but home. Istanbul. Kyoto. Tokyo. Seoul. London. The English countryside. Catalunya. Thought I was exploring the world. Turns out I was watching empires at different stages of decay. Europe broke my heart the most. Europe has little

The three stages of Bitcoin X: Following everyone to learn Unfollowing everyone who was wrong once Realizing everyone is wrong sometimes The real alpha was the people we unfollowed along the way.

Honestly think Bitcoin murdered the concept of "enough" Before Bitcoin you could confidently say "If I had a million dollars I'd retire" After Bitcoin it's impossible. Goal posts move faster than the price now Nobody has an exit strategy because nobody knows what enough

Most bullish thing about Bitcoin is that it succeeds DESPITE Bitcoiners, not because of them. We’re terrible salespeople. Suck at UX. Can’t explain it simply. Turn every conversation into a lecture. And it still went to $100k. Imagine if we were actually good at this 😂

Record labels sued teenagers for downloading songs wrong. Maxis attack people for using Bitcoin wrong. Both are missing the point, which is adoption doesn’t ask permission. Talked about this with Bitcoin Archive for 3 hours (!!) Listen in 👇

"Spotify saved the music industry" Wrong. Spotify wrapped piracy in a corporate UI and gave labels 18% equity to stop crying. Told Peter McCormack this on his podcast. Labels knew they lost. That equity was just their face-saving exit. Today financial institutions aren't

We have infinite sources and somehow know less about what's actually happening. People are exhausted with the overload on information. And exhaustion makes you vulnerable to whoever offers the simplest story.
