"The Bitcoin community possesses a unique advantage that will ultimately allow us to prevail: not only do we have skin in the game, we have soul in the game. Our tribe of a few thousand cypherpunk Bitcoin maximalist fanatics stand against an empire of fiat clones, millions of faceless cogs in a soulless machine.

Join the journey from Pleb 2 Polymath. Learn stuff, build stuff, bring other common folks to the knowledge! I don’t think my name will change to Pioneer2Polymath, but I agree with the sentiment, it’s important to move on from commoner plebeian to a person who uses their know-how to make their lives and the ones around them’s lives better.

Maybe I’ll make it out to pubkey someday. Most of my free time is spent smoking blunts and working out. Last time I was in Brooklyn I was chasing a mother fucker around a Construction site with a shovel trying to kill him. That’s when I decided fuck NYC it was right before Covid which the communist like rules just sealed the deal for me to never cross the GW bridge ever again. I said I would never go to NYC ever again, not even for a wedding or a funeral and so far I’ve held to my word.

    I'm a Canadian and love using Bull Bitcoin to buy Bitcoin and pay bills (using their Bills service). Starting in 2026, Canada will implement new laws that require crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) to report more information to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). These new laws are part of the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF)[AKA the Bitcoin-Asset Reporting Framework (BARF)]. I hope Bull Bitcoin continues to thrive 🙏
