"I value privacy and DO NOT consent to surveillance." - Sent From iPhone

Basic logic is why I use cash. The best privacy doesn't need a ledger.

This doesn't make any sense. You are saying privacy and data is what they wanted so I should buy Bitcoin; a literal database for transactions.

When you realize they're only projecting the mindset that hooked them on [insert value metric] in the first place. Myself included, but I welcome the challenge; hoping to leave with a better understanding.

The U.S. Dollar is scaling into a global digital network that reaches 6 billion people. It's a massive market and requires a massive amount of money to keep things flowing. You're acknowledging the assets ability to retain value with such incredible dilution. That's a relative strength. Retail prices are cumulatively lower now than historically relative to the total money supply. I'll say this another way: while the amount of money increased 10x, bread is still $1.

Bitcoin does change everything. It destroys your domestic economy for the benefit of High Net Worth Individuals and private equity firms who pay to promote content like this, attempting to steal your money through Bitcoin. When you buy it, they don't own it anymore and have no reason to buy it back from you.

It's been 15 years for Bitcoin, the technology has existed the entire time, and people still think crypto is lead by "cypherpunks." Even GPT understands how critical infrastructure is for "sovereign" networks. Am I to believe humans are no smarter? Because the alternative is being gaslit by a tech industry, notably the people backing Bitcoin. One company is responsible for the internet as we know it; Y Complicate it?

The irony of speaking on agendas of control and living in the lie while preaching the adoption of Bitcoin. As if the systems of control Bitcoin enables aren't abundant. This is exactly how private equity convinces you to hand over the reigns.

This is ironic, because Bitcoin may as well be a religion.

This has been known. All these "privacy" apps collect your data too. Nobody advertises the real privacy and anonymity services because they can't profit from your data, can't track you. When you realize the entire tech industry was build around Y Combinator, you start to understand how fake their security offerings are.

Ice in the upper atmosphere can cause this effect.

"Pay my electric bill"

What you're feeling is the exploitation of your labor; prices are down compared to the total dollars in circulation. Even if we priced everything in Bitcoin you would still feel this way, because your income isn't keeping up.

Now try canceling the gym membership.

Little angry men don't belong in the forces. They are the last kind of people you want on your squad. They lack discipline, and that is more dangerous to you than the people you engage with. Probably why he never made it in the marines.

I opened a checking account and they gave me a card. I connected the card to my phone and spend the money anywhere. I lost my card and they ran up $500+ in charges. The bank looked into it and gave my money back. They still honored the 3% cash back rewards on the stolen expenses.

Go petition to Bitcoin and leave America alone. You wanted to "opt out," well here's me opting out.

Resource demand. China is hoarding all the silver, as a major silver refiner. Production creates deficit; COMEX contracts that used to settle for cash are wanting delivery. COMEX doesn't have enough silver to meet American demand.

Private equity is a much greater concern, especially those backing Bitcoin, lobbying government operators at the expense of their populations. Let America be the face of your oppressor, while syphoning funds through Chinese exchanges into Swiss vaults, to any sanctioned economy. Everyone loses and the private equity regimes grow more powerful, more authoritarian.

Bitcoin shows us that fiat is winning. Its value is directly leveraged from fiat assets. Why do you think fiat is failing? Is that what you're being told?

Everyone would see these transactions on chain. They would see the flow of your funds, the farmers funds, and everyone you associate with.
