"We need Bitcoiners to fight for Bitcoin. If no one fights for Bitcoin, Bitcoin will very soon be dead."
"Bitcoin secures over a trillion dollars in value. It has no security team."
"Most of the money problems we talk about with Bitcoin — they're not money problems. They're time problems."
"21 million isn't a promise. It's a rule — and rules only hold if your node enforces them."
