Getting ahead of the curve.



Getting ahead and staying ahead.

It's one thing to have a head start. It's an entirely different thing to develop on that and take advantage.

We are still very early days in this race to web3. A race to a new way of operating cross border beyond the control of the big corporations and stooges that are currently setting all of the rules.

Or they were at least when they held all of the cards. Now we have been here for the past few years, trial and error learning how to build and operate across these new systems.

Suddenly the things that we were crazy for thinking about only months ago are coming true. Governments that will lock up your funds for dissent. Europe cutting off whole countries for actions that they disagree with.

All of these are just various levels of control. It starts with shutting down your twitter account for unpopular opinions and ends with you losing your house when you aren't allowed to pay the mortgage.

The world has slowly gotten more and more centralized with the invention of the internet and formation of global enterprises. It does have a lot of benefits but only for those within the system. As soon as you try to forge an independent path then you will see the negative side of things.

Luckily most of here will never need crypto for those reasons. I hope. I might have some unpopular opinions but i don't see them coming after my bank accounts. Probably.

But these few weeks have gotten a lot of people thinking.

Suddenly a whole range of people are seeing bitcoin and crypto in a new light. It's no longer just a fad but a realistic alternative to the current system.

When your whole currency can be devalued in a day, wouldn't it be smart to have another type of worldwide currency. One that can't be seized or targeted by the politicians.

When your bank account gets frozen for political opinions wouldn't it be great to have another fund to keep you going. One that is untouchable by centralized banks.

When you want to support an unpopular cause wouldn't it be good to do so on your own beliefs instead of what a company tells you that you can support it.



We're the lucky ones.



We saw use case early.
We saw a reason for crypto to exists beyond a talking point or dog meme.
We saw a way to earn more in defi than we could in banks.
We saw independence from the usual channels.

All of us here have the advantage of seeing these possibilities long before the majority of the world. We saw the different avenues that crypto open up and got involved for our own reasons.

Safety, wealth, development, freedom or fun.

It doesn't matter how you got into this space but it does matter that you got here early. You have first mover advantage and can use that knowledge to earn and multiply as the new waves try to do the same.

Now that others are starting to see the light it is only going to get more interesting in this space as more and more people forge new paths for the rest of us. Our biggest problem going forward will be to hold onto that advantage as others try to play catch up to us the same way that we are trying to catch the first gen bitcoin holders. The ones who saw it earliest.

Let the games begin.

Really interesting to see crypto diverging from the other markets right now. Certainly seems like we're seeing the first massive shift to crypto to get around government systems.

Speaking of early, you should look into using the meme tag. It's early days but I think that one could be something and they are being pretty generous with it right now.

It's funny how fast things can shift and what causes it to happen.

Its two of the largest governments that have caused the shift in mentality by their negative actions rather than anybody's positive ones. When things move they move fast.

We're all lucky to have gotten in at the right time to learn the ropes and get positioned for whats coming.

I'll check out the meme tag. Not sure what the plan is but always good to be ahead of the curve.

The Russians can't tap their cards anymore so there are queues for bank machines. Cash is not done yet. Its funny i lived in Germany and the Germans reckoned their privacy was invaded if there was a money trail which included crypto (bank to crypto deposit) so cash is still king over there.

Cash isn't done yet but we have a strong currency to work with.

If my life savings were in rubles under the mattress i would be worried about the future. It will still work in russia but try to buy from another country and you wont get very far.
Then those prices get passed onto the russians and suddenly its 3x for a car or a steak and that money doesn't look as good.

Funny about the Germans. We're the same out the west for a lot of things but cards are slowly creeping in to here too. You still find most people payed in cash though especially for the trades or farms.

It's weird to see the current financial system kind of explode. The issues happening with the trucker convoy and now the swift payment blocking. We still need way more off-ramps for people though because I am not sure if having crypto and no way to exchange it into fiat is a good plan.

This needs to be a big part of the plan but it looks like its coming. P2P will be massive to circumvent the institutions but when you see amazon and other large groups sitting up and making plans then the onramps will come sooner rather than later.

We can see more and more use case so people will start to build access next.

We all wish that we had more or bought earlier.
unfortunately we'll never be par tof gen one holders but at least we can be part of gen two.

The people coming in now will say the same things about us in a couple of years.
