I am a bitcoiner. 
But I do not define it as my identity. 

It took me a year and a half after discovering bitcoin in 2019 to become fully orange pilled. 

When I had that ‘ah ha’ moment, nothing about my personality changed. But the way I interacted with the world changed in many ways. 

Once I grasped why Ive felt disconnected from social norms by connecting the fiat dots. I felt a calm knowing I had #Bitcoin as an off ramp into being self reliant by controlling my own wealth. It’s also more comforting more easily recognizing manipulation in our system. 

To me, being a bitcoiner has a few main traits:

1. Having a true understanding how our system works. (The Bitcoin Standard helped me with this)
2. Not being scared by self custody. 
3. Working towards owning your time by breaking the matrix chains at a pace thats sustainable for the individual. 
4. Staying Humble and stacking sats.
