Imagine having a monthly spending limit set in Venezuelan Bolivars. And Bolivar gets so inflated that what used to be worth thousands of $ is worth $0.01. You can't even buy a loaf of bread or a bottle of water with your GOLD MASTERCARD/VISA CARD. Even having a limit on a debit card itself with YOUR OWN MONEY is ridiculous. Yet we all have it... And that brings us to the fact that your money in the bank account is not yours, it's not money either and the bank is not a bank... #bitcoin fixes this. https://image.nostr.build/2778ba0b34dedfcde681aa640e5b51907785684120ed30058251721ff828d66e.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=756x1008&blurhash=_GKdD0D*16A1IUV%40R-0L%7EU-O-ooextWCADS%25IAw%5BWCofxZ00S%25o%7EROs%3AIqV%40E2M_xCNctRWWoLMvMxtSbcs.s8bcDiNHxuV%40W%3DoeW%3BEMaeWCR%2CV%40bcaenhS5R%2BaJafbcV%40&x=c66eac4db1a602956a2a5c4b7ee9482d758bfb3450b778bfeefbfe3b3a125b2e

Just a thought: What's laziness? Am I lazy because I find it super hard to convince myself to do JavaScript coding for my employer? I know exactly why it's so hard for me to "work" on this. Simply because I'm not JS developer, the product sucks and I'm dependent on many people to ask for help or explanation of certain aspects of the product instead of being self-sufficient unit. On the other hand I am absolutely consumed by reading, listening, teaching and building on #bitcoin. Don't know what to do first. I don't play games, I don't watch movies. Because I just enjoy bitcoin stuff so much more. So am I lazy? Is laziness lack of will to do what you are not good at? Is it lack of will to do what you're not interested in? And is it still laziness or is it just natural inner voice telling you should do something else? I guess a bit of everything...

I have been travelling past month through El Salvador and Guatemala. Both countries have two very #bitcoin friendly places. El Zonte aka Bitcoin Beach and Atitlan lake aka Bitcoin Lake. Still giving time for my thoughts and experiences to settle down so I can form less subjective opinion on bitcoin adoption around here.

Interesting fact: Since I started to use #nostr I mirrored 95% of all posts on Twitter too and vice versa. (Some videos I couldn't upload so I posted it only on Twitter as well as some unique retweets, same goes for nostr) Yet, I've got about double the followers here since the beginning of this year compared to Twitter I used since 2009. The level of shadow-banning, disadvantaging non-blue-checked users and other totalitarian practices of that network are so obvious in this regard. 🤔 I even remember having tweets which were deleted without any notification or reason. To be fair the smaller size of nostr also probably helps. On the other hand decentralized nature and public/private key structure makes the user discovery orders of magnitude harder than on Twitter. So all things considered it's probly even anyway...

I'm in Guatemala City, walking from an ATM to ATM. It either doesn't work with my Revolut card or it has ridiculous fees. In addition 95% of them are within buildings that close at 5PM or 6PM. Imagine life with one, global currency. Frictionless, easy & fast, available 24/7. Wouldn't that be a sight? #bitcoin

#bitcoin is the wake-up pill you all need but don't know about it...

Sometimes I just can't resist to stick somewhere little #bitcoin easter egg for someone to find. 💊🧡

I am bullish on Argentina 🇦🇷 #bitcoin

I really do hope that things in Argentina 🇦🇷 will start moving in the right direction now they elected libertarian pro #bitcoin president. They have the best possible position to join El Salvador 🇸🇻 as one of the countries where elections actually really did bring extremely positive change. Flame of hope is still burning. And not only that, it's getting stronger, it's spreading... 🔥 Today's a good day.
