The reason this cycle hurts more is because bitcoiners feel like they lost on all fronts.
- NGU: the number didn’t nearly go up enough.
- Bitcoin culture: many bitcoiners were bought off by treasury companies and abandoned the freedom nature of bitcoin
- Sovereignty: one of the most sovereign, advanced and popular bitcoin wallets was essentially a scam.
This bear hurts but I don’t see any possible future where we and our children are free without great money, and Bitcoin is the best money.
Head down and keep pushing through. 🫡
