You know me for being polite. But today? I’m unapologetic. To all the Bitcoiners whining about El Salvador: We were once the most violent, most dangerous country on earth. We lived through blood, fear, and death. You take that lightly because you never lived it. You will never truly understand it… it’s a fact, brain can’t replicate that feeling of horror if you have never lived it (THANK GOD you never had to) and… stories just can’t capture the horror. But now? We’re building something new. We’re rewriting what it means to live with dignity, freedom, and hope. Bitcoin is just a beautiful part of it. And more than that, we’re aiming for what every great civilization in history had in common: sound money, strong values, art, culture, science, and education. Greatness was built on these pillars. That’s what we’re seeking in El Salvador. Furthermore: Bitcoin is a P2P electronic cash system. Do you remember that? It doesn’t need your permission. It doesn’t need the IMF’s permission. And it sure as hell doesn’t need permission from governments or NGOs. No other nation has done more for Bitcoin at the policy level than us. No other nation is teaching an entire generation about Bitcoin in schools. No other nation is home to so many grassroots projects that keep growing every single day. It doesn’t matter if Bitcoin is or isn’t legal tender anymore. Bitcoin was never about governments. Bitcoin is for the plebs. For the people. Some of you have forgotten what we’re fighting for. And frankly? Some of you don’t deserve to wear the ₿. Stop crying. Start building. And for the ones who never stop building… Happy Bitcoin Day. ⚡🇸🇻
