 Lot of people did cause the free hosting is going away. You have to host yourself or use their cloud. 
 Independence cannot be given by a president, ceo, neighbor, or relative, you must take it for yourself.  

You must declare yourself, and your money Independent from the government, ETF's, custodians,and banks. 

Bitcoin is the greatest tool to declare your independence, but only if you hold your own keys.

While custodians and governments can make number go up, they can't make independence or freedom go up, only you can do that. 
 What a difficult day I had. 😞😞😞 
 Sorry 💜 
 Agreed, although I don't know that we could stop them now.  Good news, governments are terrible at saving,
So as long as the market demands bitcoin for their time and resources they won't have Bitcoin for long. 🤷🏼‍♂️ 
 Yo! Your Costco is built different 👀 
 Vibes are high today all over. Not just here. Busy, happy people. It's kinda weird lol 
 I'm hearing a lot of hope and optimism from normies about the possibility of reducing government in the U.S.  it's very weird. 
 🤤 
 Attn: #Alby users. How has your experience been with Alby after upgrading to Alby Hub/Cloud?

 Thanks Jack, I appreciate your counter points to my paranoid crypto anarchists worries 🔥. Truth is somewhere in the middle. 
 100 years ago many countries obtained independence from the prevailing empires of the day.  Today the individual continues that fight seeking further decentralization and  independence from anyone who would seek to govern us. 
 Good Morning #nostr!

 Love ya too dear 💜 
 While you may not think your government is tyrannical today, better to protect yourself just in case.  Who knows what tmrw brings. nostr:note1x0jp39phmc3nmwu66f8cwys3ee68kwynl97pdgve46p6zalnje2sxh83zv 
 Remember when the IMF said El Salvador adopting Bitcoin would lead to financial instability?

 What is happening?? I need more time. 
#bitcoin 
 It's going up forever 🧡 
 There are cycles where generations happen, can't believe how much has changed in 4 years. 
 Were you orange-pilled on #Bitcoin AFTER joining Nostr?

 Feel that. Actually since becoming a bitcoiner I live poorer now then I ever have before (old car, small apt, skip meals etc) 

This is while working 60 hours a week at a high level job, but fiat was always going to make me poor, it just took a little longer than expected.  

The crazy thing is without bitcoin that was still gonna happen, but now we all have a chance to make it.  it might take awhile and be a struggle all the way there, but we will make it. 
 I appreciate your unfailing faith in humanity 🧡. I'm cautiously optimistic that a seat of such power can respect the will of others, but I've been surprised before.  So far as we continue to make it difficult for anyone to infringe on our sovereignty I think we do well.
