A man spent years teaching people about Bitcoin, but when he admitted he wasn't rich from it, one of Bitcoin's biggest figures mocked him. What happened next made him a millionaire.
> Andreas Antonopoulos had been educating people about Bitcoin since 2012.
> He wrote books, gave hundreds of talks and helped thousands of people understand Bitcoin.
> But there was one thing he didn't have, a massive Bitcoin fortune.
> In December 2017, Roger Ver, popularly known as Bitcoin Jesus, questioned why Andreas hadn't become rich from Bitcoin despite being an early advocate.
> Andreas replied that he had actually bought Bitcoin early.
> But in 2013, he sold his holdings to pay rent and support his family.
> He had spent years working on Bitcoin without a steady income and couldn't afford to keep holding.
> That response changed everything.
> Bitcoin supporters began sharing his donation address, encouraging people who had benefited from his work to give something back.
> Within three days, hundreds of donations had poured in.
> One person sent 79 bitcoin:native, while another donation was worth $1.2 MILLION at the time.
> By December 8, Andreas had received approximately 102 bitcoin:native worth $1.6 MILLION at the time.
> At today's Bitcoin price, those 102 bitcoin:native would be worth approximately $7.5 MILLION.
> Andreas was so overwhelmed that he described reading the messages with tears in his eyes.
> He had spent years helping people discover Bitcoin and when the community found out he wasn't wealthy, they sent him a fortune.

If you’re right wing and you can’t admit liberals (not communists) are way better at art and design and boutique coffee shops and restaurants, you’re not living in reality.
If you’re left wing and you can’t admit conservatives are way better at running cities and businesses and police departments, you’re not living in reality.
You step inside a beautiful coffee shop in the PNW and think “man, these liberals are great at this stuff…conservatives should take notes.” Then the moment you step outside and trip over a homeless drug zombie shooting up fentanyl on the sidewalk, you think “man these liberals are terrible at this stuff…they should really take notes from conservatives”
Communists make disgusting anti-beauty art, but classical liberals aren’t like that. Put the libs in charge of the coffee shops, put the conservatives in charge of city hall. This is how you get a city that is beautiful, clean, and functional.
If you can’t accept that, you need to check your tribalism. We are never getting rid of each other, so figure out how we strike a balance or else the communists swoop in and take everything from us while we quarrel over stupid bullshit…which is exactly what’s happening now.

Binance hack, customer exposure:
Customer reserves: $165.4B
Stolen: $5.9B (3.6%)
Minus frozen: -$3.0B
Minus SAFU fund: -$1.17B
Net uncovered: ~$1.7B (1.0%)
... so even if Binance socialised losses (they say they won't), that seems to be the max exposure rn
Gerardo retweeted
User funds are safe!
It does look like a hack on Binance. Appreciate the quick freeze from Tether (~$971m) and Circle (~$823m).
I don't manage Binance (.com) anymore, but as a shareholder, I expect all user funds will be fully covered.

I said this in February. What are we seeing now? 😂
The year of FUD.
The year of bad news.
The year of bearish narratives.
Every excuse in the book will be deployed to keep you from buying. Recession fears. Regulatory threats. Black swan headlines.
The same script we’ve seen before, just repackaged for a new audience.
Different year.
Different cycle.
Same psychological game.
This is how markets operate. They don’t reward comfort. They reward conviction under pressure.
They will do everything in their power to make sure you capitulate at the bottom. To make sure you doubt your thesis. To make sure you sell in frustration after months of chop, boredom, and bleed.
And when the moment to buy finally arrives, it won’t feel like opportunity.
It will feel like risk.
It will feel irresponsible.
It will feel lonely.
Because if you’re not slightly sick to your stomach when pressing buy at the lows, then the reset wasn’t painful enough. That’s how sentiment cycles work.
Fear has to peak before confidence can return.
Despair spreads quietly. You can already see it.
Since being on this app, I’ve called the major moves as they’ve unfolded. And I remain positioned for 160–180K within the next 3–4 years.
You won’t recognize the bottom when it’s here. You never do.
But you will recognize the regret later.

That’s the reset phase.
As I’ve stated before, I am a $BTC buyer within these lower regions. I’m accumulating where others hesitate.
I will continue adding to my long term holdings as previously stated, methodically, without emotion.
I don’t need headlines to agree with me.
I need price and structure.
Since being on this app, I’ve called the major moves as they’ve unfolded. And I remain positioned for 160–180K within the next 3–4 years.
This may very well be the last opportunity to accumulate below 100K in size. Markets evolve. Access tightens. Institutional flows increase over time.
You won’t recognize the bottom when it’s here. You never do.
But you will recognize the regret later.
These phases are designed to exhaust you before they reward you.
Same script.
Different cycle.
2026 is the year of accumulation.

$BTC: Almost every single retail is now out of the market. Every single one of them is now calling for 70k and they are all mainly short. The Crowd is always wrong, and the market will pivot quick and leave those who failed to buy, once again behind.

Lula vs. Bolsonaro: I was held in solitary confinement for 1,901 days for revealing the truth about the U.S. government's killings and espionage, including against Brazil and its industries. Out of power, Lula fought for my freedom. In power, Lula discussed my persecution with Pope Francis, who decided to meet with my family and offer help. After my release, Lula and I met in Rome to mourn the Holy Father's passing. Lula was kind to my children and asked for nothing in return. In contrast, Jair and Flávio Bolsonaro did nothing and said nothing. Yet without the ability to say no to Washington and Tel Aviv, there can be no domestic policy, only foreign instructions. Those orders are always the same: "Expand our theft of resources and wages, and keep your mouths shut about us murdering children." Sellouts will surrender everything in exchange for a cut, even their own tongues.

What’s actually going on in Ukraine is that there is a massive incentive difference between the elites and the people.
The former have grown very rich off the hundreds of billions flowing to Ukraine, while the latter’s children are conscripted to die in trenches.
