 Bitcoiners: I don't care about the price. I want it to be lower so I can buy more.

Also Bitcoiners: *posts excitedly about the price constantly during a pump* 
 There’s a pump?  😂jk i care about the price. 
 We are built different 
 We can have both 😎 
 I’m in it for the tech Derek 
 Same. 
 I get excited both ways 
 It's hard not to get excited when there's validation happening, but it's also slightly mixed with an annoyance too 😂 
 Interesting wording 
 Hehe 
 there's always a bright side 
 More than ever we need this bull market about education and freedom topics 🙏 https://i.nostr.build/Gkne.png  
 Agree. We'll need to educate this class. 
 All the wives that have sacrificed through so many birthdays and christmases for the HODL right now….. https://image.nostr.build/27bdf963900640f0e37cacff5cdb937b0b3d62eb65a9c78fc5c6ab08ee50bcfc.gif

 Katie told me she's buying a new couch while I'm in Madiera 😭😭😭 
 As she fucking should! And not no offer up or ikea couch this time…😂 
 Then make a deal to sell the chairs 🤣 
 True bitcoiner and bitcoiner’s wife that is awesome 
 We’ve been waiting for this…. 
 To be fair, my parents bought the couch we have in our living room 23 years ago 🥹 I needs to be replaced. 
 Classic plebsband behavior 🤭

 I loaded everything I could 4 years ago(and some more in november 2022) I’m not interested in LOWER prices. 
 I would like lower prices for as long as possible. I don't have enough yet. 
 I'm just happy to participate! You seem to be proof of work, t-y! 
 I'm seemingly one of the few maxis who think too low of a price for too long massively increases the odds of Bitcoin failing. The fiat price has to keep going up for healthy growth and stability to exist. I would yawn and buy at 125k right now.

I want to pay more for sats because I care more about the mission than the size of my bag. 
 Ooff, chad take right there 👌🏼 
 It's a completely and proudly selfish take. I have my entire wealth stored in #Bitcoin and need it to succeed. Sure, I could amass more if the price stays low forever, but that does me no good if no one wants to actually use it with me. Frankly, we can't have it both ways. It can't be a store of value AND stay low in fiat price terms. The two ideas are simply incompatible. It has to rise in proportion with demand for wealth preservation and fiat's decline in value.

We are beautifully lucky even at the price right now, and some idiots are too stupid to see that. They want it to tank and potentially kill many of the people we convinced to store their value here. Not everyone is prepared for those drops and it only serves as more fud and prolongs freedom for humanity.

All so some asshole can fill his bag more. It's easy to see who is here for fiat and who is here for true wealth AND humanity.

I want freedom in MY lifetime, not after I'm too dead to enjoy it. 
 Nailed it bro. Let's hope it keeps rising 🚀🌚 
 Can you not call me out constantly? Thanks  
 This is as low as its going to get, waiting for large dips (just before halving) is allowing the likes of Blackrock to front run you all. Base price of btc after halving will be much higher than what the price is currently and likely to never see $50k. When you look back in only a few months, (in next epoch) current prices will be seen as a bargain. 
 We’re just happy to get the $58k gang back together 😂 
 I hate this world where only money matters. Freedom isn't even an afterthought 
 I love it, confuses the hell out of normies 😆 
 We're all guilty of this in some way! 
 I have nocoiners that send the price to me, asking if I'm celebrating. 
Always replying with a crying face and " is anything to celebrate about ?"
Now they start to listen.
People start to understand I wasn't joking when saiyng "price is just a question of time. I'm enjoying stacking at a low prices for how short it will be available" all the bear market...👀👀💣 
 
 Very true 
 End of the day, price is the best signal in the market. 

Everything else will be noise to those who don't know about Bitcoin.  
 NGU is emotional and psychological validation, a proxy for "we're winning" against the shape-shifting levithian. We like big numbers to flash up so that we can enjoy a few minutes of smug euphoria and then, we like smaller numbers again so that we can continue hoarding. Personally, I blame Satoshi, it's both peer-to-peer electronic cash and destroyer of worlds :-)
