Saylor's thoughts on MSCI's decision to potentially exclude $MSTR from its indexes:
Great to see the Balkans embracing Bitcoin
๐ฅ NEW: We are giving a way two tickets for BTC Balkans, the Region's biggest Bitcoin-only gathering ๐ง๐ฌ
> Network with likeminded builders, investors and enthusiasts, Sofia, Oct 31 and Nov 1
> Sofia is one of Europe's oldest cities, where Galerius legalized Christianity in 311 and Constantine wanted to build his second Rome
> This year's edition lands months after Bulgaria adopted the euro, in a country that lived through 242% monthly inflation and still remembers what hard money is for
> Two days of Bitcoin, Lightning, self-custody and building at the Inter Expo Center
To enter:
> Follow @LightningNewsX AND @BitcoinClubBG
> Repost this post
> Tag your friend you'll bring to the event
One random reply wins two tickets next week. GL!
Reminder, critical mass (sociodynamics) could be closer than assumed.

I'm not worried about the people who create value. Eventually, they'll figure out which money they want to be paid in.
I'm far less bullish on the consumers.
Bitcoin doesn't need everyone. If the Pareto principle holds, the productive 20% will matter far more than the remaining 80%.
21% adoption is enough for me

This is toxic and disingenuous. Tangem is misleading so many folks who donโt know better.
Gaslighting the industry for years.
Blind signing has a clear definition. This product is a glorified 2FA hot wallet and doesnโt protect from the most simple type of attack: a compromised phone or computer.
Hey, Chris!
A screen doesnโt solve blind signing. Huge sums have been lost to transactions people approved on screens they couldnโt actually read. Please read it: tangem.com/en/blog/post/blinโฆ
Why the "no screen is bad" narrative fails
By shifting key processes to the secure mobile app, Tangemโs hardware wallet doesn't need a display. The secure app handles all critical interactions and is protected by the robust security layers outlined above. This simplifies the user experience while keeping their digital assets safe.
The app side is hardened separately: integrity checks against modified versions, root and jailbreak detection, tapjacking protection, certificate pinning, DexProtector, and open code on GitHub. Details here: tangem.com/en/blog/post/mobiโฆ
We compared the two approaches and chose the one we believe is safer and simpler for people to use. Ledger Cryptobilis incident shows it was the right choice: with Tangem, a story like this simply couldnโt have happened.
When you run a shitcoin you'll always have to hide the money printing process inside a complex web of bs lmao

โ ๏ธ BITCOIN IS NOT OPTIONAL: People think it's like iPhone adoption, but it's like gunpowder adoption ๐ฅ
"Did the French army have a choice whether they should adopt gunpowder or not? Did they decide, 'No, you know what, we like to keep it real with the sticks and stones and swords, and we're not gonna use gunpowder."

What annoys me is people blaming consumers for the symptoms of monetary debasement.
When money stops preserving value, wages and skilled labor become ever more expensive in nominal terms. Craftsmanship becomes a luxury, restoration loses to replacement, and tailoring, and shoemaking give way to fast fashion.
People didn't suddenly stop appreciating things built to last. We made building them uneconomic. If we had sound money, people would buy things that last.

It's always the same people posting and obsessing over the most abstract / intangible topics all the time, like governance of open source projects, 30 year treasury yields, mises regression theorem, bitcoin mining decentralization, quantum computers breaking cryptography, climate change.. such big brains. so visionary.
Meanwhile, you meet them in person and they can't even get the simplest things right.
So we can go back to fishing and playing the guitar...

Today, an undisclosed large bank dealing with the Iranian regime will be sanctioned by the US.
Sanctioned countries and anyone dealing with them are now being forced to adopt Bitcoin.
The next world reserve currency is censorship-resistant and borderless. Inevitable incentives.
Hey everyone! The Bitcoin Collectible Card Game (@BitcoinCCG) that I've been developing for nearly six years is finally available!
I would be very happy if you bought and played it, or simply collected the cards. I've put a lot of time and effort into its design and creation, and I hope you love it just as much as I do.

Sadly the @X algorithm managed by @nikitabier and @elonmusk is pushing bots that spread the mind virus
I remember being in the Marine Corps barracks and watching "9/11: Decade of Deception".
It was a horrible experience to realize that my entire life was centered around training to fight in wars that were waged because of lies. Wars that got our own killed and got countless civilians killed. Wars that we couldn't even afford to pay for.
In the Marines, there is a mind virus instilled in bootcamp which infects most, causing us to not question why we're doing what we're doing. In immediate tactical situations, this makes sense. But when you apply this mentality to get thousands of young men to hop on a plane, go to distant lands and shoot anything you tell them to without question, the mentality becomes extremely destructive.
USMC Major General Smedley Butler succinctly described this:
"Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service."
I love America and would still die for our country. If I could be born American 1,000 more times, I would.
That being said, I will never support wars that are based on lies. Our country is occupied and has been for a long time. 9/11 is hauntingly poetic. The physical collapse also completely represents our nation's collapse.
When I was "serving" (big banks and foreign interests), maybe one or two other Marines I knew didn't believe the official narrative of 9/11. Almost ten years of being out now, most dudes I served with have ultimately reached the same conclusion and no longer believe the lies we were told.
I've said it before and I'll say it again:
Defunding the military industrial complex is personal to me. Bitcoin adoption is personal to me. I am tired of our people being forced to pay for wars we don't agree with.
Stop using dollars as much as possible and opt out with Bitcoin.
If you support the troops, stop naively believing false flags that get them killed.
If you support the troops, use Bitcoin.
