Bitcoin IS money. It’s better money than the $ because it retains purchasing power over time while the $ loses value through inflation. npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino With #bitcoin you don’t need a user name or a password or an account or anyone’s permission to join this alternative financial system https://image.nostr.build/535f6776134ac7d5fed762c7f0837cc7169f81a91e6af982e20b7f98f1fe08fb.jpg npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino MEANWHILE BACK AT THE RANCH - npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino MEANWHILE BACK AT THE RANCH - npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino SMALL TOWN LIVING - npub1d35fjctkz7qlz7n0wxf3pu7daljwkvmw5du357dzfmttd8sh9dvqmck508 BitcoinMendocino I have friends and I care about them and I see the ship is slowly sinking and I just want to let them know “hey, guys…this ship, it’s slowly sinking.” And they laugh at me but I say “there is a lifeboat.
