Bitcoin taught me how to win.
Enjoy, but plan on winning more. (keep stacking)
Don't sabotage yourself. (don't get into alts)
Become the type of person that consistently wins. (level up)
If you think Bitcoin is an "investment" or a gambling vehicle, you will wait for the price to drop to buy then, getting disappointed when it doesn't or not having the guts to buy when it does.
It's a store of value. Learn what that means.
Centralization naturally results in gatekeeping. This can be good, especially when it comes to violence. But it's bad with almost everything else because that gatekeeping becomes a form of rent-seeking, which is ultimately decivilizing. It's especially bad with money because it's half of almost every transaction.
Bitcoin is the decentralizing antidote.
Your relatives that you convinced to buy Bitcoin are going to be happy. Your relatives that were stubborn will generally not be.
This is not the time to spike the football. Your task now is to convince them that they'll be as happy as the relatives you convinced in 4 years.
I'm grateful for the people in this community that continue to fight for what they believe in, even the people that disagree with me. It's that which keeps Bitcoin safe from centralization.
The VC cope this cycle is delicious.
They're trying so hard to sell "blockchain" use-cases to a public that no longer believes them. Sorry guys, your credibility with the public is somewhere between CNN and MSNBC.
