OR, they are holding and reeducating muslim terrorists and potential terrorists to safeguard the people. Unlike the western democracies who cuddle them and let them in to their countries so they can commit terrorist acts against us.
This right here is why I fear the European nationalist movements are doomed to fail; Their ideas are pretty good, but their marketing is abysmal. It's pathetic, like hurling obscenities at an idealistic little girl. How can you not see that you are not helping your cause? I'll help with the marketing:

As I am not a programmer nor expert in crypto, I have arrived at HODLing some 1% (of my net), the minimum that JJG suggests above. 1% is probably close to what I understand BTC to be. Risks and rewards are both high. 1% is the right amount for me in that if BTC price craters, it changes very little for me. If it climbs to a nice ATH, well great!
If you're only willing to put 1% of your money in something, it's definitely not an 'investment'. A high risk, pump and dump scam maybe, but only willing to risk 1% is not an investment. To me the word investment implies you actually have confidence in what you're purchasing, and 1% is not confidence. That would be gambling, not investing (from the relative viewpoint of the individual). I mostly agree with this. A 1% allocation would've been reasonable pre-2016 or so, when bitcoin was still a possible black swan event in the making, or possibly a flash in the pan. Since we're making recommendations here, I'll recommend everyone has 40%+ of their net worth in bitcoin. Go big or go home.

Organ harvesting of non-coiners is cool with me, as long as the harvesters accept bitcoin.

For those in need :
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Update from Shelby, being passed on by an impartial observer: This is obviously based on the assumption of a SegWit donations attack at the halving event in May 2020, with the need for the price to moon before the halving so then when the price is crashed by Craig Wright dumping ~1 million BTC then the SegWit (i.e. Core) blockchain will lose most of its miners and thus slow down to perhaps 1 block found every week (instead of every 10 minutes) and with the mining difficult not to be reset (without some centralized intervention) for perhaps a year or never. The inability of the SegWit blockchain to proces transactions as the price craters will cause the price to crater even more in a spiraling into the death-of-coin abyss effect.Enjoy the wild ride!

Frax will be different than those stablecoins because it will rely on a fractional reserve—meaning it won’t be backed by a one-to-one pool of reserve dollars. Yeah, Frax sounds like what r0ach thinks bitcoin is.

Frax is the 'solution' that George Gilder has recently been shilling. meh Maybe he's losing his edge.

I liked Jeff Berwick too, until he got too close to Roger Ver and became an all-out bcasher.
I'm not sure how he hasn't figured out anarchy isn't a real 'thing', although Elwar hasn't either. If you advocate for the complete abolition of government, all you get is some Liberian cannibal warlord strongman stepping in and taking over, then you have another new government you didn't want that's even worse than the one before. Anarchy is nothing but an extremely brief, transitory state. People don't adopt it due to the saying "the devil you know is better than the one you don't." As for libertardianism, it's not really possible to practice libertardianism in a closed ecosystem, which is what the earth is. You would need an ever expanding frontier to homestead on to do that. Without an ever expanding frontier, you have a closed ecosystem, caged deathmatch where people constantly band together to avoid being exploited by the local psychopaths or the ones down the street, then you have government. An ever expanding frontier does exist - it's called space, which may or may not be accessible by humans. Lying Jeff Berwick has been pitching Acapulco as an anarchist utopia for years. I guess it could be, in an ultra-realism kind of way, since it's 100% controlled by homicidal drug cartels. https://www.wired.com/story/anarchy-bitcoin-and-murder-in-mexico/

That's Jeff Berwick's (The dollar vigilante) event iirc. I used to watch his content a couple years ago before he started reminding me of that coked out friend who lost his mind. Made some good calls in Bitcoin, at least I'll give him that. Should be a good party for sure with a lot of familiar faces. What will you be speaking on? I liked Jeff Berwick too, until he got too close to Roger Ver and became an all-out bcasher.

In a way it's almost a relief...no more wondering. This is great news, they don't attack what they don't fear. Oh, the irony. They keep seeing threats in tokens that represent fiat currencies, like stablecoins and libra. 10 years on, and they still fail to see that BTC is their kryptonite. Maintain course and speed, gentlemen.

It's okay for the mainstream media to lie and spread false, contrived propaganda as long as it's used to shit all over Trump, and/or conservatives, and/or Christians.

Ill be enjoying my life regardless of who wins.
Now you too can live the dream life of being trapped inside a Chinese communist, social credit score, basic income system. Swamp the drain with Andrew Yang 2020At least he'll accelerate the monetary collapse. You've got to like that whether you're a physical metals virgin or a Bitcoin Chad. Somewhat unfortunately, the best case scenario we could hope for is another Trump term. And after a two term president, we almost always get a president from the other party. So would you like a communist in 2020 or 2024?

More BTC being handled by exchanges, or whales accumulating? Maybe a bit of both
