constant on Nostr: Money (and I mostly mean in terms of monetary systems) is what people start wars ...

Money (and I mostly mean in terms of monetary systems) is what people start wars over, that is to say that there is no ‘higher level of seriousness’. And I realized early on that Bitcoin, with its ambition to be money, resides in that playing field. War requires sacrifice. I do feel for those that did not realize this going into it, but it is what it is; you signed up to be chewed up and spit out whether you knew it or not. It is not a matter of ‘if only people would…’; no, the dynamics involved overrule all such fanciful idealism.

All you can do is find solace in your brothers in arms.

Thank you for your service.
