Thrilled that President Trump kept his word and pardoned Ross Ulbricht! 🙌
Ross was my gateway to Bitcoin back in 2012. I discovered Silk Road and its vision of radical freedom—trading anything peacefully and voluntarily. It led me to Bitcoin, and though I had no idea what Bitcoin was and only spent it back then (at ~$10/BTC!), it shaped my path forever.
Ross embodied early Bitcoin’s ethos: decentralisation, freedom, and creating a better world. He was a non-violent first-time offender, yet the system threw the book at him, locking him up for life to send a message to Bitcoiners.
Let’s not forget: Bitcoin was never just about Number Go Up. It’s about fixing the money to fix the world. Ross’s vision lit the way for so many of us. His freedom is long overdue 🧡💪🙌🙏
