I deactivated my X account yesterday (partially) because I needed a mental health break But the main reason, was because bull market twitter is so fucking gay I spent 10 minutes scrolling yesterday. I kid you not, every single post was either a bunch posers gooning out in all-caps over the price going up 4%, or it was a circlejerk of scammers spamming "Paper Bitcoin Summer" over and over and over There's no signal over there anymore. Yesterday was the moment I realized X was no longer bringing me any value to my life, so I just deleted it Maybe I will come back to X in the bear, when all of these carnival barkers get wiped out. But until then, @npub1glqq...7jxa is officially on a hiatus.

People never cared about freedom money. They only cared about the dollars being pumped into it. IMO the only way to make people care about bitcoin's freedom properties is out of _necessity_, not ideology. The problem is that the CBDC dystopia has yet to be realized, and I fear stablecoins might sufficiently walk the tightrope of being very bad for humanity, while not being bad enough for humanity that people would try to find refuge in bitcoin.
