 it dawned on me today, while filling up gas cans and getting driveway gravel, that bitcoin exchanges, etfs, and even bitcoin fractional reserve bqnking is going to be the normal way normies deal with bitcoin. 
 probably true, at first I was a little sad about this

then I realized it's just the top of the funnel and doesn't have to be the end

they're just one step closer to self custody and ultimately more sovereignty  
 Everyone will get rugged until self custody is the norm 
 and that would be different from the last 200 years how? 
 We didn't have Bitcoin 200 years ago. 
 oh. youre one of those 😆 
 Yep 
 Bitcoin bqnking™️
