As a True Nomad or Bitcoin/crypto enthusiast It's important to Travel Light  in survival situation which will likely have lots of lawlessness. No need to be walking long distance with heavy equipments, drinks, foods etc. Just get yourself light-weight things to collect/produce clean water and good foods. Get list of strong, light and adjustable tools to make things like shelter, animal traps, fire, cloths, containers... things to extract raw material for making other important/necessary things like tools for farming etc. Get some books and writing materials. Then extra stuff you don't immediately need could be stored somewhere.
It's mportant to have multiple underground storages where things with long shelf life like dried foods, drugs, etc can be stored for emergencies.

Bitcoin opponents are already defeated. We no longer have any challanger. We are now in the stage of completing the Bitcoin Project we hope and pray will survive an upcoming apocalyptic event.
We are still building and trying to convince more people to join the ship. Once we are done, the doors will be shot, a fierce king from the other side will be let loose and we will sail away.

Just a short term approach...meaning it's not sustainable especially since Bitcoin can't be "regulated" by nations.  Bitcoin use is only sustainable on mobile/nomadic businesses that are independent of existing centralized fiat systems, other contrary approach are short-term.  You don't dare compete with Ceaser You either surrounder to him and have his face on Bitcoin or you remain a fugitive, wanderer, nomad, etc.

Not a good idea to work for money. Doing so is serving money rather than money serving you.
Only do the work you were designed/created to do in this life... do it well then money will serve you. To find a work you were created for, firstly identify what you are really talented in, then search for works that need such talents and show the employers you have what they need... you will be hard to resist because of the talent. If you can be self-employed or manage a business well then start one that is related to your talent.   Doing the work really well gives a great deal of satisfaction. Besides, such work makes you happy, which is why it's recommended to do the kind of work you love or have passion for.

"You cannot serve GOD and money." Doing the right work or serving the role you were created to serve really well is part of serving your CREATOR


"No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon." – Mathew 6:24

Probably wise investors preparing for an upcoming short period of bear market. But the bear won't take charge yet until Bitcoin crosses 32000. For now the Bull remains in full control.

Meanwhile let's continue to watch to see who other traders obey before we make our final move... Bitcoin Master or B'rock?

Don't you think sheep are meant to be with good sherperd otherwise they would be lost? They look too vulnerable and will always wish to be guided by sherperd to pasture in a jungle full of sneaky and deadly wolves. So what does the sheep give in return for security? If nothing how then does the sherperd sustain himself and the business of guiding the sheep?

It's important to strike a balance by making the relationship mutually beneficial without the weak/subject feeling cheated, robbed, enslaved or oppressed by the strong/leader and vise versa.

Sheep need good leader and must be obedient followers to avoid getting lost and devoured by the jungle beasts. They should also beware of bad and opportunitic sherperd. Getting led by them is equally as risky as getting lost in the jungle full of deadly beasts.

How he is going about it is all that matters. If his teachings isn't based on Bitcoin principles which is the Foundation of Bitcoin then it's better not taught at all.
Peter and Paul never deviated from the foundational principles of the Gospel which is JESUS CHRIST. Whatever they teach while spreading the gospel must be according to the Word of GOD or the doctrine of JESUS. Whatever is outside of the doctrine or not correctly preached is counted as heresy and the teachers doomed.

Teaching the truth is like building a house or planting a tree. You first of all set the foundation or sow the seed in the ground then gradually add layers upon layers of bricks or food particles ontop of the foundation or seed until it becomes a house or a tree.
When spreading the word, firstly set a foundation in the heart of people then add layers upon layers of words on this foundation until the words become bold and strong enough in their minds to control them to be fruitful or do things right. Don't deviate from the foundation

If by Expert and Work you mean people who are really good at solving problems in Crypto space, you will find one or few in this forum.

But don't expect to find employed people in real (decentralized, open-source) cryptocurrency space.  As a crypto worker or problem solver you need little to no permission to participate or work on true cryptocurrency projects. Your contributions are considered based on their merits and you will probably get paid via voluntary donations. These are some of the most important characteristics you must look out for when searching for true cryptocurrency projects to work for.

The typical career goal here is to help build choas-resistance parallel society based in cyberspace and in real world.

There are very few people, typically the real Heads, who are quite unpopular, prefer to be discreet but are very powerful and influencial.... one of their roles is to guide the space. They have been in the space for as long as 7 years, could be higher or lower, what matters most is how long they have been working on similar idea before discovering cryptocurrency. It's likely so long depending on whether it's the role they were created to serve or fulfill.

The total amount of the seized silk road bitcoins could be considered worthless depending on how dirty or clean they are. If things they were exchange for are bad/evil, they will have little to no sufficient power to move the price of Bitcoin ... Only clean money can move the price of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin price was recalculated such that low supply & high demand for clean bitcoins can move price up while high supply moves price down. That also means if someone or people are buying clean bitcoins price would go up. If they are selling price goes down. Clean bitcoins have more powers to move Bitcoin price.
 Price could also be moved by people with enough power in form of contributions to the development of Bitcoin. The logic here is that good contribution from such people is thesame as  good/clean Bitcoin... good contribution = clean bitcoin = power. Your good contributions, depending on how quality/powerful they are help Bitcoin grow. If you contribute good ideas it grows, if you contribute clean bitcoins it grows

Donating tons of clean money to the needy especially those in "third world countries" and make sure the money is put into good use for the benefit of the needy. Consider the donation as a seed that eventually grows into a fruitful tree to the direction of the donor to reap the fruits.

This bullish for Bitcoin as it's a decentralized, censorship resistant and independent system, hence won't be affected.
Now concerning the humans who could possibly be affected by this... punishments for using Bitcoin for payments or investments may only be possible if Bitcoin is bad, if they use it for something immoral/illegal, if they pay with bitcoins that are somewhat dependent on the system they control or if they buy/sell things that rely on the system. This is just an idea for those who wish to safely navigate a lawless system that tries to prevent them from using things that are good and permitted for responsible people to use.
 It's always better to use Bitcoin for things that are right or good, use it when you're completely independent of the system they control and don't depend on anyone in the system. Using it otherwise is unsustainable.

It's really nice how he used his Bitcoin profit to buy land probably to expand his farm. This is how we want people who make money from Bitcoin to use the money... by investing in things that benefit society, or expand/multiply to produce more for the benefit of society.
I hope in the future he will also consider earning bitcoins from the produce of the farm he bought with his Bitcoin profit by selling them to fellow bitcoiners around there. And they can also sell to him their own products for bitcoins.

I like the idea of forming a cooperative society for Bitcoin investment as long as the members are able to control their keys and are guided to grow their funds themselves by a good fund manager. Or use two multisig addresses controlled by multiple people or members of the cooperative society ...one address for Bitcoin and the other for stablecoin for exchanging funds between them.
It's important the members know and follow the important ideals of Bitcoin in order to remain on the safe side while investing/using Bitcoin.

Am right to call you a feminist? Or could that be a worst form of feminism known as feminazi promoted by those who seek to wipe out the male gender from existence by destroying men or turning them into genderless humanoids?
Well, I know that part of the reason for the hatred for men is due to their nature as the stronger vessel which the enemy sees as a difficult nut to crack. To conquer Earth and fully control it the enemy has to weaken or destroy this gender. Or have as many weak genders in leadership positions in order to easily manipulate them.

Well, women ought to be women by serving their natural roles and being submissive to responsible men/heads. This is what really makes them beautiful and attractive not applying heavy makeup or exposing their private body parts. Beside, it brings order and harmony in family or society.

Ethereum ceased to become a fully decentralized cryptocurrency the moment it switch from PoW (a true Consensus Mechanism) to immoral/meaningless PoS.

The issue is that Ethereum now requires Network participants to have huge amount of money in form of stakes to take part in full Network consensus... while Bitcoin only requires participants to run full nodes to take part in full Network consensus. What ethereum did is like asking your fellow citizens to download full copy of your country's constitution plus have huge amount of money in order to take part in full governance. Bitcoin requires just having a copy of the constitution to take part in full governance. Judging by this, which between the two do you think will be more decentralized?


It's Important to Note that:
In Proof of Work, Work = Mining. Miners or workers need to prove the work done to nodes before their work is accepted and reward given. Everyone takes part in this, making the network more decentralized.

In Proof of Stake, Stake = Money. Stakers need to prove they own huge amounts of money before they can take part in full network consensus. So you can't be part of full consensus if you don't have the required amount of stake. Very few people qualify for this making the network less decentralized.

As long as CBDC is Centralized (as the name suggests) or as long as Centralized Financial system is concerned, expect its ideals/principles to be in complete opposite of the ideals of Decentralized currencies like Bitcoin. Besides, Fiat or National Currency like the CBDC would have to be in accordance with existing national laws that guide the modern financial system. Such laws cannot guarantee users privacy or prevent accounts freezing, as long as centralization is concerned. So, users should not expect their fundamental rights not to be violated by Central Bank, governments or others.

Money is typically not a priority in businesses, jobs or works we are truely passionate about, but sufficient rewards (not necessarily money) do certainly come if the jobs are well done.
Why choosing a job we are passionate about or love is important is that it helps us endure whatever challenges we may encounter while doing the job, to stay long enough to master/perfect it and become successful or have a break through.

Bitcoin was created for one main reason, to serve as an alternative system to a badly run traditional financial system, especially when it (the traditional financial system) starts to crumble.
It will be an alternative system for preserving lives and values from an upcoming global choas and tyranny.

Systems built on solid foundation are expected to survive the global catastrophy. Ofcourse, we expect those on weak foundation to crumble & probably be rebuilt. The strong or antifragile ones will continue to stand

Why not get someone to do that for the old woman? Isn't she living with someone who can operate the tablet? If she is then let the person play her the audio books whenever she needs to listen to them.
Or you could just remote control it, probably via the internet... or set it up to play automatically at a particular time daily.

I would have recommended some old people-friendly devices for playing digital files but I'm not sure you can find them in your country.

Ofcourse, Bitcoin is really nice and a great alternative to an unfair, centralized, closed, limited and rigged system that's built to benefits certain people & further certain agenda. Bitcoin is a clear opposite of this, as it's open, fair and benefits every participant equally just like the sun in the sky benefits all community members equally.

The idea behind game theory is contrary to Bitcoin ideals. Its competition is fair, and no one gains undue advantage. Maybe the theory should be redefined to mean Healthy Competition for the benefit of the Community or all participants, and your submission concerning the g.theory would be considered. Being selfish is harmful to the System/Network, those who work most for the good of network benefit more. This is unlike the concept of game theory.
Bitcoin rules treat everyone equally, whether poor or rich. It provides equal opportunities too . And both poor and rich are rewarded equally, according to the size of their contributions.
When it comes to its principles, everybody rights is equally protected... It's consensus mechanism(Proof of Work) is fair and just.

The part where your friend said it's not real actually interests me the most as I have read couple of people say thesame thing. It's possible they say so because it's intangible money (can't be touched) , they think it's not real money or were brainwashed by contents that claim it's not real. Well, you can't blame them too much. The concept of virtual money/assets would be too advanced for people or primitive minds who are used too physical assets/money, which is part of the reasons I tend to encourage the printing of "bitcoins" on physical objects. It will make alot of sense to them since they can touch and easily exchange them for goods and services. Unfortunately, nerds, tech futurists etc are too obsessed with the digit concept with little consideration for people with less understanding.  Bitcoin is more real and better than fiat currencies but alot of people would take the latter more seriously because they have their physical versions, which Bitcoin is also capable of. Besides, the physical version of Bitcoin is much better because it can be printed by anyone & has a verifiable public Ledger.



I have a question for you my friend, in regards to your expenses, are those motor bikes used for business? How about the renovated house? You see, we need alot of productive bitcoiners who can use what they made from Bitcoin for the benefit of fellow bitcoiners and society. We are building an interdependent Bitcoin Network that is independent of centralized world. When the time comes, you could rent out the bikes or house for bitcoins... Afterall, you bought and renovated them with money from Bitcoin. You could use the bitcoins earned from renting them out to pay another bitcoiner to service them when they need to be serviced, or even buy brand new ones from bitcoiners who can manufacture such. This is how we can sustain ourselves and become self-reliant rather than relying on fiat world or buying lots of bikes for just ourselves to enjoy/use without earning more bitcoins from renting out them to others. Learn from Bitcoin miners... they invest in mining equipments probably with their hard earned bitcoins, to serve the Bitcoin Network & earn more bitcoins. I have read of Bitcoiners who produce miners and probably sell them for bitcoins. Let's learn to live for others especially bitcoiners when we succeed with Bitcoin investments or works. This can help in circulating the coins within the Bitcoin economy rather than just holding them.


People I know who probably dislike Bitcoin would be surprised by the influence I have on it
