Cory episode of the @BtcInfinityShow coming soon!

I get a lot of comments like "Is this the revolution you signed up for?" and similar after the Coldcard exploit. To be honest, yes. This is EXACTLY the revolution I signed up for. While I absolutely condone the actions of Coldcard and the hackers, this debacle has once again illuminated a forever-truth: Not your keys, not your coins. I almost never hear this phrase at conferences anymore. Bitcoin is for anyone, not everyone. If you put your trust in third parties, you WILL get punished at some point. This is one of the system's main features, not one of its bugs. Bitcoin is not for the light-hearted. It is not comfortable, and it's not compatible with the fiat system in any way, shape, or form. Anyone telling you otherwise is, sadly, probably a scammer. That's the sad state of the fiat world we've all grown up in. Bitcoin, done right, is still magic and still has a good chance of taking over everything within a few generations. The odds are still high that your grandchildren will be extremely grateful that you chose this path. But the road there will be bumpy. "I like Bitcoin, buy my shitcoin/stonk/NFT/hardware wallet/ETF/preferred stonk/course/book/conference ticket/VIP pass/node-in-a-box/beef jerky etc." will still hypnotize the masses for a long time to come. During these first few decades of Bitcoin's life, a whole bunch of scammers will get away with a lot of loot from many gullible newbies. But they will all die at some point. No one really ever owns a bitcoin, however. We merely serve as its guardians until we pass it on to another guardian in exchange for a good or service. They will all end up in honest hands eventually. ...unless Bitcoin dies before that, of course. The only thing that can kill it, though, is negligence. We are the satoshis, and if we want to survive, we'd better start acting the part. (P.S. No AI was harmed during the making of this piece of pleb slop)
