As a stay-at-home mom who happily never worked outside the home a day in my married life, I didn't see being part of a quiet revolution to overthrow worldwide tyranny on my bingo card.
#bitcoin
My brother-in-law bought
#bitcoin
big at 60K, rode it down to 15K, riding it back up. Doesn't care to understand it really. Bought it for freedom. Never sold. Never said a negative word. Never got mad at me. He's a great guy.
Electrician: You still into crypto?
Me: No, I'm into
#bitcoin
Him: What do you know about Shiba?
Me: Absolutely nothing except you should sell it and buy
#bitcoin
.
Best friend calls.
Her: Hey, watcha doin' ?
Me: Oh, just hanging out on Twitter with my
#bitcoin
tribe I never met in real life waiting for history to be made.
Went to a graduation party. I tried to talk about
#bitcoin
-no takers, tried to talk about the Dutch farmers-blank stares, tried data scraping-someone nodded. Gave up and listened to how this gal rearranged her bedroom furniture until I lost my mind.
I've had this deep conviction for awhile now that it's time for me to stop talking about
#bitcoin
. I explained it to all my friends and now it's time to fall silent. As the bull runs, the less said the better.
My bank just told me I couldn't cash a $1500 check. They said they could "give" me $200. What a joke! And what kind of disaster are we on the brink of?
Being a
#bitcoin
er can be lonely. My friends don't understand me and I don't understand them. I can only thank God my husband and kids are
#bitcoin
ers. If you are alone in this, stay strong.
The guy who first explained
#bitcoin
to me said he spent three months studying it, trying to prove to himself it couldn’t possibly work. After that three months, he lived below poverty level to put every penny he possibly could into it.
Friend upset because her son is failing out of college. He's a good kid but clearly not cut out for higher education.
Me: Just buy
#bitcoin
for him with whatever you were spending on his tuition and let him pursue whatever interests him.
Her: Silence
I used to care deeply about politics, I used to watch the news, I used to recycle, waste time on FB, follow the stock market. The chains break free with
#bitcoin
.
Everyday of my life I talk to my best friend. Everyday for two years I’ve been telling her to buy
#bitcoin
and why. Today was the day she finally bought some! Never give up on those you love.
Two years ago my daughter started dating a no-coiner. Now they are married and he’s a raging
#bitcoin
maxi. It’s a massive indoctrination when you’re exposed to our family.
Coffee with friends
Them: the price of groceries!
Me: the money is broken
Them: 33 trillion in debt!
Me: the money is broken
Them: my daughter can't afford insurance!
Me: the money is broken
Them: now another war!
Me: did I mention the money is broken?
#bitcoin
My peers (50 y.o. moms) fear the future and see we are on the brink of calamity. I explain the money is broken and
#bitcoin
is the answer. But they want the easy way (voting). They don’t want the hard way (dismantling their belief system and seeing the evil). I keep trying.
Have you ever noticed the plebs with just a handful of followers have the most profound, pure, thought provoking
#bitcoin
tweets? There’s a spot in my heart for each and every one of you.
Daughter: Mom, sometimes you talk about
#bitcoin
too much.
Me: Darling, if you knew how many times I want to talk about it but hold back you’d be really proud of me.
Daughter: Try just a little harder.
I just told my 8 girlfriends in a group thread that
#bitcoin
was our only shot at stopping political corruption and world-wide tyranny. They kept chatting about where happy hour was going to be.
In my life was this
#Bitcoin
maxi who was so toxic I started stacking. Then this other one came to my house and helped me with cold storage. Then this other one
@parman_the
took a lot of time and patiently taught me
#Bitcoin
. Those maxi’s, trust me, are really good people.
Daughter to my son when they didn't think I could hear:
"Been listening to a lot of Joe Rogan lately. Mom was right about everything, which means she's probably right about the other".
Me smiling because I know the other she is referring to is
#bitcoin
.
And now this morning to attend a bridal shower where I deny my inner
#bitcoin
maxi and pretend interest in mind-numbingly mundane topics of conversation.
To my delight I met a
#bitcoin
er tonight!
Him: Anytime you want to talk about
#bitcoin
let me know.
Me: There's never a time I don't want to talk about
#bitcoin
.
And to think I was dreading this party.
My whole Twitter timeline is full of crap that has nothing to do with
#bitcoin
.
#bitcoin
is the only reason I'm on here and I only follow
#bitcoin
ers. Maddening!
Convo with my son
Me: Did you hear Elizabeth Warren wants to ban
#bitcoin
self-custody?
Him: HaHa, that's funny. What's she going to do? Forced lobotomies?
I bought
#bitcoin
for years. Had a little extra money and thought why not crypto? Kept in on Coinbase. Never thought about it much.
And then one morning I joined
#bitcoin
twitter.
Best friend: SSRI for 20 years
Me: drug free
BF: Ozempic
Me: Carnivore
BF: high stress job
Me: stay at home mom
BF: divorced
Me: happily married
BF: big 401K, debt, mortgage
Me:
#bitcoin
I love her. This fiat world just trampled her down.
Do you know what it’s like to be utterly fascinated with something for over two years and none of your friends in real life care one iota about it? That’s right, you do, because you too are a
#bitcoin
er.
Two books will haunt me for the rest of my life: The Gulag Archipelago and now The Creature From Jekyll Island. Do you ever miss the days before you went down the Rabbit Hole?
This guy I've been trying to orange pill for the past 5 years came over tonight. As he left the house, I said "don't forget to buy some
#bitcoin
".
In the saddest, most defeated tone he said "yeah, I saw it was going up".
I tried so hard to tell you, friend.
Hubby and son went on a long ski trip without me.
What I didn't do:
Get the mail (didn't think of it)
Fill my car with gas (drove the other one)
Pay a bill (I don't do that)
Yard work (ha)
What I did do:
Bought lots of
#bitcoin
and put it in cold storage.
About a year ago my hairdresser almost bought a
#bitcoin
. Today she said she wished she had. I told her it's not too late. But I didn't really mean it because for her it is too late. She blew the money she inherited on a Mercedes SUV and a pool. I feel nothing but sadness.
Friend: The kids are grown and I’m bored. I don’t know what to do.
Me: Oh, you should become a
#bitcoin
er. It’s endlessly interesting. There won’t be enough hours in your day.
Friend: Is
#bitcoin
your answer to everything?
Me: Mostly.
On my morning walk with the pups:
Neighbor:
#bitcoin
's ripping
Me: Oh really?
(Well maybe you should have bought some two years ago when we had you over for dinner and we told you about it, you stubborn normie).
My friend's daughter, grew up with my daughters, a beautiful free spirited happy girl. Now an accountant with a major firm: 70 hours a week, miserable, depressed, lonely, just spinning.
#bitcoin
spare my kids from this hell.
My hairdresser always wants to discuss
#bitcoin
. For two years I’ve been explaining and answering her questions. She inherited some money. In her driveway sits a brand new Mercedes. In her backyard the start of a new pool. Foolish woman.
One evening I'll never forget, an extremely wealthy person told me voting was for poor people. That night I disagreed with him, but now as a
#bitcoin
er, I think he might be right.
Just Orange Pilled two guys who came to tow my dead car.
Explained the debt crisis
Explained
#bitcoin
's limited supply.
Explained the halvening
Explained the superiority to a shitcoin
They were all ears! Was a blast!
Our super conservative college boy wrote his final paper on
#bitcoin
and got a 100% from his super liberal professor.
#bitcoin
‘s for everyone!
#proudmom
My husband's partner is finally buying
#bitcoin
. If he had listened to me preach
#bitcoin
at every single social function for the past 5 years he could have had a whole lot more but whatever! Welcome aboard!!
@MJMJ666
@RemoveRon
The masked people on the plane look sad and pathetic. I’d be like get me off this plane and let me breathe that fresh Florida freedom air!
I have noticed a slight shift in my normie friends. When
#bitcoin
was 15K and I was telling them it was going to millions they ridiculed me, literally laughed in my face. They're not doing that anymore.
Friend: Do you have any advice for me, facing the empty nest?
Me: Yes, just go down the monetary debasement and
#bitcoin
rabbit hole. Soon you'll be like "what kids?" Shortly after, you will barely remember their names.
@DavidLimbaugh
My husband just flew to CA to get our new puppy. They asked if we had named him yet. He said Yes his name is Rush. They said after Limbaugh? My husband said yes and they all cheered and hugged.
Friend: how come you stopped talking to me about
#bitcoin
?
Me: because it was like talking to a brick wall
Her: you still like it?
Me: with all my heart.
My daughter and new son-in-law were saving for a house. They had a substantial amount saved up and decided to put it all into
#bitcoin
instead. “Our little apartment is fine. We’ll get the house later”. My cup runneth over!
Proud mom here. My son mowing lawns and working fast food all summer, stacking
#bitcoin
with all that sweat and toil. He'll remember it as the summer that set him free.
Tonight at a Christmas party I Orange Pilled this guy. He was so intrigued, asking good questions, needing hope. I could see him really thinking. It was like
#bitcoin
was selling itself and I was this inconsequential player just explaining. Very humbling.
Give them six months when they are living with five others in a rental, working 8 hours a day in a cubicle, and can't afford meat. They won't be laughing at
#bitcoin
then.
Today I got in my old truck, rode out into the country with all the windows down and yelled
#bitcoin
at the top of my lungs. I knew you guys would understand.
This guy I see once a year at a Christmas party and whom at this party for the past three years I've had long
#bitcoin
discussions with, just called to ask me where to buy.
Went to a Christmas party last night with my friend group (all I tried to OP unsuccessfully). One of their sons was there and guess what? He is a
#bitcoin
er! Cold storage, hates shitcoins, the real deal. We had a long, fun chat!
When I get together with my girlfriends, do they realize how hard I’m trying to be interested in whatever they are talking about and how difficult it is for me to not talk about
#bitcoin
?
At a nice restaurant for family brunch. My heavy purse almost toppled my chair over.
Brother-in-law: It's all her
#bitcoin
!
Guy at the table next door: Ethereum's the future!
Brother-in-law: Fukc your shitcoin, bro!
Proud.
My second halving. My first one I was luckily buying
#bitcoin
. I had no idea what a halving was, what a difficulty adjustment was, what a block reward was, what cold storage was, etc. It's been a helluva learning curve thanks to you beautiful maxies!
I like to scroll through the comments of macro economic posts and find some totally based sharp reply from a laser eyed
#bitcoin
maxi who usually has a hundred followers or so. Best!
That oh-so-irritating friend I tried to Orange Pill just texted me that
#bitcoin
's price dropped. Like I don't know the current price. Like he's the smart one. Like I'm just a foolish gal. This from the brilliant guy who returned The Bitcoin Standard to me unread.
Me: trying to explain
#bitcoin
to someone.
Her: I have no interest in this kind of stuff.
Me: Oh, what interests you?
Her: Books
Me: You should read The Creature from Jekyll Island.
I tried.
Just had a long
#bitcoin
conversation with my son's friend who's staying with us this week.
Him: You're the third person to talk to me about
#bitcoin
recently. A guy from my church and my brother have been telling me about it.
This is a very good sign!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all the
#bitcoin
maxies who over the past epoch shaped me into one myself. I never bought a shitcoin or lost a
#bitcoin
because of you guys. My gratitude runs deep.
Me: Honey, where is the Christmas china? I can't find it anywhere.
Hubby: You sold it on eBay last year to buy more
#bitcoin
Me: That was smart .
Him: Very
I have a friend very hurt because she wasn't invited to some party. Also another friend upset because so-and-so said something kind of rude. If only they had something bigger to think about! May I suggest
#bitcoin
?
