For now Apple privacy, cashapp with Bitkey would suffice.
Nostr is supposed to be the network of free people. People who choose not to stick to the screens all day. We the people arenโ€™t born to be bots that play by algorithms. Stack sats and dramatically decrease your screen time โ€”- Satoshi
Even if I get bitcoin now, itโ€™ll be 15k usd more than what I got and sold for in the past. Dollar cost average like my friend says.
Like someone here saidโ€ฆ stack sats, build air gapped bitcoin vault, focus on your craft, spend time with loved ones. Donโ€™t pursue happiness, just be happy.
Iโ€™ve never been so depressed in my life. Iโ€™m constantly in thoughts of making money and winning the rat race. Man Iโ€™m so stuck that I believe in bitcoin but seemed to be swayed by instant riches and retiring to not do anything.
I canโ€™t seem to leave Apple ecosystem due to peers being in it, it being familiar and friendly to use. Graphene has been on the 2nd device which I carry when I have the drive to not go mainstream.
When you think about itโ€ฆ Google steals your info and sells it to advertisers who make a profile of you and target you with ads. Now if you sign up for any of them, and if that site gets hacked, your password is leaked and you get an email as to what you can do now and how the company is heartbroken about you getting violated. Meanwhile Google discontinues their dark web monitoring. Iโ€™m not targeting Google but just using it as a standard example. Itโ€™s a shitty online world that we collectively signed up for.
The biggest drug peddlers in the world are coffee shops. You canโ€™t change my mind on this.
So with increasing Japan interest rates, money wonโ€™t be freely flowing into the crypto like it used to. Bitcoin price will go down. But at the same time, US will be printing currency like thereโ€™s no tomorrow. Eventually when the dust settles, bitcoin should keep going up in value perpetually until the last coin is mined.
I take solace in the fact that the money I didn't invest in bitcoin this year could've lost the same value even if I did in bitcoin in the wrong time.
