Sending a big thank you to the asshole who, a year or two ago, told me I wasn’t a “real bitcoiner” because I didn’t have an air gapped multisig setup. The gatekeeping condescension probably saved me from getting rugged.

This is the only toxicity we need in this space. It’s actually about protecting people: from themselves. Or not, ya know, like, fuck off.

I could have just deflected. I already *was* a “real bitcoiner”. Facts. But from that I fucking educated myself and it ended up protecting years of my proof of work.

Some of you have lost the narrative and it shows. If I ever meet the dude I’ll legit thank him. He’ll probably tell me to go fuck myself.

I wouldn’t have it any other way.
