 Price doesn’t define freedom money.

NGU helps: more awareness & demand means that your currency can be more easily spent, and greater purchasing power means greater freedom/access to certain things.

But the peer-to-peer, legitimately decentralized, permissionless, un-hackable, generally un-fuckable nature of Bitcoin is what defines its value proposition in the first place.

Preaching to the choir here, I know. 

But amongst all of the (entirely enjoyable) excitement during a price pump, it bears repeating that the reason we need Bitcoin is not to build fabulous wealth, but to help every human citizen protect themselves from theft and abuse.

Love you. Onward 🫡
