The human being who engages Bitcoin must become, in a sense, philosophical. Not in the academic sense, but in the ancient one; oriented toward what is good, truthful, and coherent; knowingly or otherwise. Bitcoin, then, does not replace philosophy. It recalls it. It invites a return, not to the past, but to the vertical. To the idea that action should align with order, and that truth is not invented, but relived. In other words, remembered. ππΆπ
Mate of passed away today. Suicide. Gutted. A sad and tragic waste. God rest his soul.

It means more to them than it means to me" π§‘
Posting this here for no other reason than to revive the invite for @Gigi to spend some scarce time and finite energy telling the tale of how he discovered Bitcoin. I hope he sees this, and if so; Gigi, please consider πΆπ
