Good Morning Everyone,
Jack Mallers reminded me of the inspiring Apple marketing campaign from back in the 90’s when he recently shared the ad designed around the slogan “Think Different”.
There is also a link here which is actually narrated by Steve Jobs.
I wanted to actually read through the text for you, as it resonated with me on a deep level. It is as if it were written about bitcoin, about Satoshi, and every bitcoiner out there that see’s clearly why this mission is as important as we believe it is - and it is as evergreen today as it will be in 100 years from now.
Here’s the text from the ad:
“Here's to the crazy ones.The misfits.The rebels.The troublemakers.The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules.And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them,glorify or vilify them.About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
While some may see them as the crazy ones,we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to thinkthey can change the world, are the ones who do.”
So powerful.
Bitcoin is pushing the world forward and challenging the status quo in a way that is so major, many who cling to certainty may find the change too challenging to bear. The default reaction of these people is to cling to the very system that preys upon them. A system designed to benefit the few at the expense of the many. Bitcoin fundamentally changes this dynamic and redistributes power from the center and back to the edges. From the few, back to the many.
These words and the actions of so many within the bitcoin community remind me to remain crazy and be content with my tribe of misfits, rebels and trouble makers.
Whether it be Jack Mallers and what he is doing at Strike or Jack Dorsey at Block. The number of rebels who see clearly why the world needs the round peg that is bitcoin, continues to grow. The age of predatory central banking and the nation state’s monopoly on the technology of money is coming to an end. This is the future i’m here for, and i’m inspired to be on this journey with you all.
I appreciate you all.
Hope you have a great day. I’ll talk to you tomorrow.
AK
