You don't "have something to hide" when you put blinds on your windows or close the door when you're on the toilet, or wear clothes. Privacy isn't about having something to hide, it's not about keeping secrets. It's about being able to choose what you reveal about yourself, and when, and to who, and the other word we have for that is "dignity". Your inherent dignity, as a human being. Privacy is the agency you have over your dignity.
Thailand is panicking
1. You cannot advertise or promote Bitcoin.
2. You cannot take Bitcoin as payment.
3. You cannot open a wallet to accept payments (kind of redundant from 2... but...)
4. You cannot use Bitcoin for Thai baht transfers.
5. You cannot provide digital asset transfer services.
6. You cannot do anything else above and over the above that supports Bitcoin.
I need to buy my Volcano Bond and emigate to El Salvador :P
1. Install Nextcloud Server.
2. Install the Nextcloud Client on your phone.
3. Set up autosync of media files (photos, videos) with local deletion enabled.
Bonus Tip: Don't expose your Nextcloud server over the public Internet, hide it behind a Pfsense firewall and keep a persistent VPN connection open.
This way you never keep personal or private data on your phone. The moment you take a photo, it's immediately synchronized to your server and deleted afterwards.
Bitcoin is the largest eye opening rabbit hole known to mankind. Taking control of your own keys quickly has you studying security practices and privacy. This makes you question what you are holding which prompts researching the history of money. This leads to findings of corruption which prompts further research into history and the total mind fuck that comes with it. There is no school capable of these same teachings as you also learn certain information is intentionally suppressed.

Friend of mine has been dming me about the rapidly escalating situation in Russia and how friends and family are turning to #bitcoin because of it. Crazy stuff.
(My friend prefers to remain anonymous but said I could post the screenshots.)
Buy Membership to Costco - Nah.

Looks like the ban won't happen today anyways.

Looks like the proof of work ban has reentered a draft in the EU. Masochists must really miss the Red Flag Act. China has already made this huge geopolitical mistake. This will cause a massive brain drain and when the world begins (continues) to pivot to a Bitcoin standard they will be left behind with no real capital. 3rd world countries will continue to rise to power and the largest of nations will dissolve. This transition isn’t going to be puppies and rainbows.
Every Satoshi is a ticket to exit the failed monetary system. Stack as many as you can and HODL, they won't be on sale forever.
