the curse of stacking sats and delaying gratification

I have been DCA'ing and HODLing for a couple years now (yes all the way up and all the way down during '17 and '18 no regrets) and I noticed I have changed...I have a really awesome normie job that pays well...but I still can't bring myself to get a better car (current car is 20 years old but still runs fine), better phone, or build a new gaming pc for the 4k era like I have wanted to for over a year now. Every time I look up cars or pc parts all I can think is...do I really need this? I could just stack sats. So that's what I do. I stack fucking sats and live like a hobo(not really) on a near 6fig salary. Instead of buying a new game, I try to learn python. Instead of going out drinking, I play with my LND node and try to learn stuff (usually because I break something), etc. Anyone else can relate?

No, Bitcoin is not controlled by a small group of investors and miners (A rebuttal to the TechSpot article)

I write this primarily in response to the TechSpot article from yesterday ( r/technology mods told me they only allow “ mainstream articles with editorial oversight and fact-checking ” so I'm sharing this here). But I’d also like to take this opportunity to write about Bitcoin more broadly as someone who has been following it for more than a decade and I’ll try to do so without complicating the conversation for anyone unfamiliar with Bitcoin. The TechSpot article cites a non-peer-reviewed National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) working paper from Igor Makarov and Antoinette Schoar. NBER claims to be non-partisan but it is a private NPO funded by the likes of Bill Gates foundation . The chairman of NBER, Karen Horn, is a former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and Head of Int...
