 We need more non custodial wallets..like alot of them  
 Every fucking wallet should be non-custodial  
 Have to say alot of bitcoiners mainly on X are coming off like little bitches because of recent d... 
 They should just mine at home. 
 Breakups are a loss that is a necessary pain, the crying, the anger, it's all apart of the process, let the tears fall let the pain solidify. Until you can't cry no more. 
 Por favor, no publiques esto, personas inocentes fueron asesinadas.  
 I would focus on actionably creating an all inclusive currency that battles poverty. 
 With currency I mean bank 
 Completely, Nano = no Fees,  
 Most people are focused on getting rich off of Bitcoin when Bitcoin can replace the whole banking system  
 Nano, Banano, Iota are more trustworthy than Pi 
 Pi is a shitcoin,

It's not open source,
No distributed proof of work 
Or Consensus algorithm.
Centralized
Shitty App (No practical Use Case) 
 Yes work has been abstracted from survival to the accumulation of stuff and entertainment. This e...

 How do we ensure Bitcoin feasibility without the need for fiat conversion. 
 I think closing the loop is a focus, you should be able to "easily" obtain any service that falls under lazlo's hierarchy of needs with #Bitcoin. Like #Produce, #BuildingMaterials 
 Home Ownership is another focus, there are few home owners, not mortgage in this economy. This is something that will affect voting power. The #banks and #investors have the housing market on fire.

 KYC is bullshit 
 These banks are using the state to protect the proceeds from the fees 
 I agree with @BlokchainB  work is an inherent part of existence. I also agree with @lauren , I would like to offer another idea into the conversation: what if the purpose of work has been abstracted, and maybe, the way we create jobs and gigs is what kills us. 
 OMG, I'm sure that my IQ dropped significantly after reading half of this nonsense 😧

 This is kinda interesting, they propose never truly owning land, but in reality the descendants will most likely give up the land because they have no use for it, so the time limit is unnecessary. Because if all descendants die, the land get recouped by the state with Their fees or claimed by someone else.  
 Economist have been 180° wrong for over 100 years. This time they say you're wrong.

#inflation ... 
 I'd argue that, they want wages to increase.

 Ethereum is pretty awesome in itself, but lightning is cool to. 
 But the way you can make sure humans operate in accordance with good economic principles is through #education. 
 #bitcoin is impossible to regulate, you regulate access. 
 No country is a bigger supporter of terrorism than #China, which is fueling, among others, #Iran ... 
 Docs or it's hearsay. 
 Cuba should've never had a food rationing system, it should've prioritized education, and homesteading knowledge, the community is composed of individuals, that make the community. You gotta embrace both. 
 People are graduating with lower SAT scores, the economic incentives behind education are waning.  There's no innovation within the education sector their budgets are tight. Maybe if they didn't make college so expensive students would try to apply. 
 There's a natural equilibrium between the amount of welfare your state provides and how porous yo... 
 With a well designed welfare system, the welfare state will eventually die. It's a knowledge based economy that'll create the critical thinking that'll outlive the use case of welfare. 
 If you really had a backbone, you would vote for the shit you cared about. But y'all get fucked by your government.  
 I ignore the anger, because it don't make sense.  
 I don't understand how, they get mad at me for killing myself, tryna make money, but they can't get mad at the people that make it hard for them to save money. 
 President Kennedy also expressed grave concern over the vast power of the national-security estab... 
 It's already in the back of Americans' minds, we have a permanent war with the following countries embedded in our perception, and the drones of people that don't have any incentive to actually learn about the history keeps the money strong in these organizations that the voting class has no control over.

 That is an interesting perspective, until the synthesis of gold becomes cheaper and less radioactive we have nothing to worry about with gold.
