Oddbean new post about login | logout Isn't ETF the very definition of "regulation & control"? Why are you clapping for the bitcoin ETF... (You'll gain financially while the rest of the world burns and your ok with it beacuse YOU come out on top like a selfish PoS) Everyone is working /planning for their own comfort, not for the global comfort. Sickening.
I believe they are overestimating the (positive) impact on the price action with this thing. Many will be disappointed. I totally agree with you, many have lost sight of the entire point of having Bitcoin.
Why are we handing keys over to Wall Street? Bitcoin’s supposed to burn it down to the ground.
I'm not... But the ETF will trick all the stock guys and regular folks into letting the gov control their keys.... We need another Occupy Wallstreet, but armed. Talking and getting folks to listen, understand and grasp the concept has passed and clearly NOT working. It's time for action if you ask me....
As someone who comes from war tormented country I have no intention to expose myself or my children to fight with brainwashed morons. Becoming sovereign and choosing the jurisdiction that suits me is the only to avoid stupidity of the masses. When you go down to fight pigs you’ve already lost. I literally don’t give a flying fuck for anyone who shows no interest and initiative
I’m not sure that the answer to stock guys’ and regular folks’ lack of understanding is armed conflict. Seems to me that more education with better articulation, enlightenment, and persuasion are needed. And more tools with better UX are needed. I don’t think anybody’s going to see you or anyone standing on Wall Street armed and say to themselves “hmm, maybe I should self custody instead of trust the bank”.
We don't need the world to think about self custody. We need them to think; Why are they doing this? So they can learn about bitcoin and self custody.
