Today I received my salary in Bitcoin for the first time

Yes it happened, finally.

This is what freedom feels like. For me is not about speed or scale, or even cheap fees.

It's about freedom.

For around 6 years I've been working remotely from my third world country for companies abroad, receiving my salary in USD. Regulations in my country still have not catch up yet, so my funds are frozen by my bank from time to time.

They ask me for an official contract to validate my income, but what I show them does not meet their expectations. "Virtual contract? What is even that?". They want something signed by pen. All this damn hassle just to receive and use my hard-earned money as I see fit.

But today, I'm free.

Bitcoin is the true breaker of chains, and the only way forward.

Coinmarketcap are listing BCH sites as BTC

Under here: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/ They have links to https://bitcoin.com/ and https://forum.bitcoin.com/ which are no longer BTC sites; they're BCH sites. I'm not good at twitter and don't have many followers but I've tweeted at them here: https://twitter.com/bitplane/status/955918445014585344 Can we raise awareness of this and get them to change it please?

15 years of BTC Power Law

5 years ago I made a post in this subreddit showing that BTC is a power law: Price=A*days^n, (days from Genesis Block), n=5.8. Many didn't believe me and said the past doesn't predict the future. Well, after 5 years it turns out that BTC continues its power law behavior with similar exponent. A power law is not another formula or model but the same mathematical behavior behind river formation, mountains growth, cities development, GDP vs population, and metabolic rate. Everything important is ruled by power laws, so BTC. BTC is a force of Nature.
