A country made #Bitcoin legal tender and the media still shills Elon and the potential to buy expensive Teslas. No one cares about Tesla and no one spends Bitcoin on Teslas. People care about actual Bitcoin adoption. Congrats El Salvador! 🙌💪🚀

#Bitcoin was built from the ground up by tech nerds, monetary theory enthusiasts, and anti-authoritarians.
Bitcoin does not need the celebrities and influencers.
Stop giving them your energy. Get back to building.

IMO you can’t use existing theories of money to fully describe and understand Bitcoin. They are at best only partially helpful. We have to rip the goggles off entirely, because we’ll be forced to invent new ways of thinking to interpet what will happen in the coming decades.

Don't understand why Bitcoin is important?
You're clinging to a world that no longer exists.
Update your worldview and Bitcoin becomes obvious.
