One of the reasons #bitcoin was huge for me was that I’m mid-50’s and sadly I’ve been a saver. I just never saw the point. Our system sure discourages it, but i accept some responsibility as well.

I’ve also always seen the stock market as a casino. I’ve loved tech for most of my life, but I’d never trust my “luck” betting on stocks.

Thankfully I found out about bitcoin for the second time in 2021 and bought some. (The first time was way back in 2010 - I worked in tech and thought, “money for the Internet, duh”, but obviously had no clue 😭).

Then I proceeded down the rabbit hole as we do and just couldn’t get enough. It was just the most fascinating story. I’d been a fan of Linux for years and saw many obvious parallels, but it’s even bigger and touches everything, as money does.

I couldn’t be more bullish and excited about the future, even though the world seems to be upside down and on fire, we have bitcoin 🥳❤️

And now it seems that open source software (and protocols) continues to change the world for the better with #nostr. What a time to be alive! LFG!! 🚀
