This stands out. Bookmarked; Hopefully will remember to zap it when I’m set up for that.
For the newcomers to nostr who might wonder why all the freaks here are so passionate and focused on #bitcoin, let me try to simply capture the big idea.

Assume that when you work, instead of being paid in your local currency (like Yen, Euro, dollars, etc), you were paid in water.

You aren't going to drink all the water in the moment you earn it, so you need to find a jar or container to store it Obviously, you are going to choose a jar that is strong, secure, and does not leak.

Your local currency is the equivalent to a leaky jar. The leak is called price inflation. If you are using US dollars, over the long term, it leaks at around 7% every year. This leak can threaten the quality and length of your life.

Now, what if we also told you that the bankers and politicians were the ones that made the jar, and determined how much your jar leaks, and that bitcoin was a jar that didn't leak, and bankers and politicians could not change the bitcoin jar?

Would you view bitcoin as a source of freedom? Would you want some bitcoin?

Welcome to the discussion. #introductions
