 I'm never ready for the bull mania phase of Bitcoin. I have so much fun with the bear & crab markets. It's a comfy place. 

Mania bull markets cause the most anxiety. Calls from people you haven't talked to on a while, concerns about your cold storage setup even when you know it's secure, and an overall feeling of great responsibility.

Bitcoin is a burden I carry for future generations. I know this is all inevitable, but seeing the world wake up to this inevitably can feel daunting.  
 Please excuse my grammar, my brain isn't operating at full capability this AM. 😆 
 You got this 
 🫡🔥 
 Can second that 
 Same but I just try to see it more as more people are figuring it out.  That said, this is my first run as a ‘real’ Bitcoiner so I’ll have let you know if things change in a few years. 
 I'm happy to see more plebs stacking! And NgU is going to happen. It's been happening. I just find the trip up to be more stressful than sideways or down. It's weird. 😂 
 At the end of the day 1 Sat = 1 Sat so NgU doesn’t really matter as long as you have more today then you did yesterday. 
 I have less today and I'm ok with that. 
 I tend to think I'd feel the same way if i had been stacking sats since the birth of ipads.  lol 
 iPad was 2010, I didn't get Bitcoin for another year. 😂 
 ha! made you look it up.  Heard you talking about it on a recent podcast with @Titcoin 
 See you at 58k! 
 Tomorrow 🫡 
 Be grateful #Bitcoin exists at all 
 Someone asked me on a trip a couple weeks ago, "Are you still into crypto?"

I said, "Well, bitcoin... but yes very much so."

He said, "Why? No one's talking about it any more."

It was then I realized that most people don't care until it's too late for them. All the life boats are full and lowered into the water. The bull market happens when the people still on the boat watch the escape. 
 Fairly standard, unfortunately.
