Learn how to buy non-KYC Bitcoin and to coinjoin:https://www.bitcoinuniversity.com/courses/76599-the-ultimate-guide-to-bitcoinIn this video, I discuss the birth of the Bitcoin Network on 3 January 2009, when Satoshi mined the Genesis block and embedded the famous headline from The Times newspaper: "Chancellor on brink of second bailout for the banks." This headline served a dual purpose as a timestamp (demonstrating that there was no premine), as well as a proclamation of Bitcoin as an alternative to the failing fiat financial system.January 3 is also widely celebrated in the Bitcoin community as "Proof of Keys" day, when everyone should withdraw their Bitcoin from the exchanges and hold it in self-custody, as well as practice Bitcoin recoveries with your hardware wallet.The Genesis Block is a monetary Declaration of Independence for the 21st century: "We refuse to accept the funny money of our fiat overlords."The Genesis Block is the shot heard round the world in the revolution against central banks. Bitcoin is ethical money for 8 billion people.Bitcoin is money that cannot be confiscated by politicians or debased by central bankers. Bitcoin is the monetary foundation upon which we will rebuild human civilization.Thank you, Satoshi, for giving us this precious gift.Not investment advice!
