โ‚ฟitcoin has so many personal cycles you have to go through. First you spend your time checking the charts every minute after your first purchase. It drops and you wonder if youโ€™ve done the right thing. Second you give yourself price guides โ€œwhen it gets to this number I can buy this or thatโ€ Third you decide to study a bit so you read arguably the most important books @Jeff Booth โ€œThe Price Of Tomorrowโ€ @Lawrence Lepard โ€œThe Big Printโ€ @npub1gdu7...6nak โ€œThe Bitcoin Standardโ€ and you think youโ€™ve got it now. Fourth you buy more โ‚ฟitcoin because you think youโ€™ve finally got โ€œitโ€. Fifth you watch the volatility in fiat and you have conviction but flick mentally between the fiat price and what you can do with it and the offering of freedom. Thenโ€ฆโ€ฆsomething shifts, โ‚ฟitcoin forces you to look inside yourself and you see yourself for the first time. Which in turn reveals what โ‚ฟitcoin has been trying to show you all along. This isnโ€™t just a financial shift this is a once in a lifetime upgrade for the human species through the lense of โ‚ฟitcoin. But ultimately through the lense of discovering you for the very first time in your life. Thatโ€™s where the freedom comes from. It was always spiritual, the change was always coming and it is beautiful. Itโ€™s all love. ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿงฌ๐Ÿชฌ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿง˜

Good stuffโ€”straight from the gut. But letโ€™s name that spiritual awakening: itโ€™s just the sudden understanding that you have the right to own yourself. Bitcoin is a cult of optionalityโ€”unlike the mafia, a cult of physical coercion, or identity politics, a cult of social coercion. Itโ€™s a constitution republic, applied. Natural law, encoded.
Beautifully said. Everyone thinks Bitcoin is just about price at firstโ€ฆ until it quietly turns into a mirror. The charts, the doubts, the โ€œwhen it hits this numberโ€ plans โ€” all of it is part of the journey. Then the studying begins, the conviction grows, and suddenly youโ€™re not watching Bitcoin anymoreโ€ฆ youโ€™re watching yourself change. Bitcoin doesnโ€™t just teach economics. It teaches patience, discipline, responsibility, and ultimately freedom.
