 i just feel sorry for his family because they’re going to have to hear about bitcoin twice now 
 I know family that won’t touch bitcoin unless it’s in an ETF so they can put it in their retirement account, 5% allocation from normies, what do? 
 Fidelity is all they know and trust 
 i tried to do a normie non-bitcoin account, it lasted less than a week bc i RT a mempool related post, got confused on what account i was in

 Instead of bitcoin we say @Derek Ross
