Memers thwarting the government’s propaganda left and right

Exactly 🤣

Yes, everyone fucks their money the way they want, you're not scamming anyone.

We do not live in a world of good guys and bad guys, we live in a world of states and slaves. The bad guys are always the states, the states create wars, the common man does not create wars. The state steals, extorts and murders. It doesn't matter if the state is politically right or left wing, all states do the same thing, throughout past, present and future history. The only difference is that whoever wins the war rewrites history and makes you believe that the losing state is the bad one, but both are bad. Bitcoin is not going to solve the problem of states because people will continue to vote and be part of the system, and monarchies and dictatorships will continue to exist, but perhaps we can take away much of the funding and thereby save many lives. #Bitcoin #Agorism

In 1997 Diaspora by Greg Egan was published. It details how a neural network can be cultivated into a discrete consciousness, how it interacts with the digital and physical world, and how it navigates space via a hybrid coordinate system similar to #cyberspace. When the neural network achieves self awareness it is granted a private/public keypair that serves as its identity. It's #SF, but SF can be very practical.

Why do we value #Bitcoin, #Gold, or even the #USDollar? It's all about belief. If we trust in their worth, they thrive. Isn't it fascinating how our consensus shapes economies? What truly holds value in your eyes? #EconomicBeliefs #ValueIsConsensus .

Looks like nostr:nprofile1qqsrvwrzx7exgyp25rxtz8hungpnr58nd6elc6gu0mq2jlvnanrlwqgpzdmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ue0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcpzemhxue69uhkummnw3ex2mrfw3jhxtn0wfnj7z5nqve has already given a better answer than I could on the cognitive dissonance aspect. As for strategy, I'll just add that: 1. I'm not sure I have any better ideas than anyone else on the topic 2. But I have spent some time thinking about this and have some ideas on some different paths forward A. Governments basically force people to accept bitcoin. I don't like this one, but it is an obvious one. B. Culture shift, which is the main focus right now. Make it normal to split the check with bitcoin. This can be done now with lightning and having the person collecting the money pay the establishment in cash/credit. Advertise that you accept bitcoin when you sell stuff (where possible, places like eBay don't like this 😂). Other things that would fall onto this category in my mind would be to have bitcoin featured in movies as just a normal thing. Not part of the plot. Not character development. Just casual usage. C. Negotiation. Maybe this is the wrong heading, but the idea is to only accept bitcoin and not fiat. This only works well if you've got something highly desirable to offer. It also means you will miss out on opportunities. For example, when looking for an employer, show them how much of a perfect fit you are and then walk away if they won't pay you in bitcoin. Or if you make amazing art or jewelry or whatever that people can't get anywhere else, people will either get some bitcoin via PayPal or whatever and pay you, or they won't get it. I like this option, but it kinda depends on option B to get enough producers to participate that it will have any meaningful effect. Missing out on a single product because you don't use bitcoin is one thing. Missing out repeatedly is another. If people have a choice to pay in BTC or fiat, they're likely to use whatever is familiar and convienent. This means not many people switching. If the terms of the deal are "bitcoin or you can't have this cool thing" they have to decide if it's worth the time & effort to get some coin. And that's a big hurdle. Getting it and using it once. I guess a middle ground would be to offer discounts for paying in bitcoin, which is becoming more popular and something I do personally. As YAR noted, there are more or less public ways to advocate for bitcoin adoption. You can talk to the masses, or friends and family, or somewhere in between. However, I strongly feel that the first step for any advocate is to eat your own dog food. If you think people should use and accept bitcoin, then you should accept it. You should be familiar with a set of tools and/or services that work well so you can give people a slick demo if they are interested. Anyway, that's just my two sats. Obviously I haven't succeeded in getting mainstream adoption yet, so maybe I'm just that crazy uncle. 😛

You can. Make money with your MSTR stock to buy more #bitcoin 🤓

I was talking about the psychology of ownership to be honest. I meant mining bitcoin as viable way of owning it is now out of reach of most of the world. I'm not basing that on the price of #bitcoin but rather the price of #ASIC #mining rigs. That was real trick the bitcoin maker missed. They should have made it ASIC resistant like #Monero is. The actual price of bitcoin is irrelevant to my argument.

good morning friends, have a great day. 🫂🫡💯☕ stay humble and stack sats. #bitcoin #gm #coffeechain #nostr #pv #zap #plebs #grownostr #art #plebstr #meme
