Sometimes I’m trying to think how my life would have been without bitcoin. Without Satoshi Nakamoto. It would likely have been very different..!

➖ No remote job
➖ No passion
➖ No full-time traveling
➖ Less savings (mentality)
➖ No outlook for a better, fair world
➖ Run the fiat hamster wheel
➖ Different friends
➖ Care about career ladder

I guess: “different” savings, job, passion, etc. But I can’t believe I would have been living a more interesting and happier life.

Thanks to bitcoin I wrote the two Dutch bitcoin magazines, co-created a Bitcoin board game, wrote dozens of articles, translated five Bitcoin books to Dutch, gave plenty lectures, visited 5+ circular economies, spend most of my time in El Salvador, and much more.

Oh, and learned how social media and the internet is broken because bitcoin brought me in nostr.

It’s crazy to think how much “an idea” and “computer code” and its community can do to one’s life.
