🇬🇧 Why Reform UK is the choice for young people who want real financial freedom. Young Brits are fed up with a system that quietly robs them through inflation, endless rules, and banks that can freeze your money on a whim. We deserve better and Reform UK gets it. We’re unapologetically pro-technology, pro-innovation and pro-bitcoin & crypto. Britain is falling behind because our regulations are choking startups, scaring away Bitcoin & crypto businesses, and making it harder for our own young people to build here instead of moving to places like Dubai, Singapore or the US. Bitcoin changes the game. It’s freedom money with a strict cap of 21 million coins, no central bank can inflate it away or devalue your savings year after year. Your purchasing power is protected, not eroded. Unlike traditional banking, no one can debank you, freeze your account, or censor your transactions. Bitcoin isn’t owned or controlled by any single entity, it’s yours, forever. It cannot be debased. It cannot be stopped. If we want to get ahead as a generation, the UK has to become competitive again. That means slashing taxes and slashing red tape so businesses, especially in tech and crypto choose Britain, so our own ambitious young people can start and scale companies right here without being strangled by bureaucracy. Reform will deliver exactly that: lighter regulation, lower taxes, and a welcoming environment for breakthrough technologies like Bitcoin. We stop treating innovation like a threat and start treating it like the opportunity it is. This is how Britain catches up and leaps ahead. Secure foundations: embrace Bitcoin freedom and crypto innovation, cut the burdens holding us back, and give the next generation the tools to build real wealth. Young people, the future isn’t waiting. It’s time for Reform UK. Let’s make Britain the place where young innovators thrive. 🟠 #BTC #Bitcoin #Deregulate #BackYoungPeople

The fact that you’re writing this on nostr says a lot. Just ditch the “pro crypto” and bitcoiners might pay attention. Otherwise its just virtue signaling to special interest groups.

Its all just virtue signalling to special interest groups, even narrowed down like that.

You are making the assumption that Nostr = Bitcoin Only, where I suspect that it is actually Nostr = Bitcoin Majority! There are a handful of other coins that have some form of utility and store of value over time. I, for example, have a liking for Litecoin and Cardano as well as Bitcoin. (Putting all of our eggs into one basket is very dangerous! We should be very wary of the totalitarian approach to anything - Even Bitcoin!)

Most bitcoiners I know (including me) fell for the alt coin illusion and diversification argument at first. We all live in this fiat denominated world where people get distracted by shiny objects and beautiful founder stories all the time. But if you study bitcoin (history and properties of money) hard enough, you can’t come to another conclusion that these alts are not alternatives but shitcoins, repackaged fiat games designed merely as a distraction to separate a naieve fool from their hard earned money. Many of us have learned this the hard way. I have no desire to convince you, but I do have a desire to respresent bitcoiners and agitate against shitcoiners diluting the bitcoin story which always happens. New people get confused and all fall for the same trap, which is preventable by simply doing the work. I’m not here to offend you nor argue, but this needs to be said. Our world needs a hard money standard to thrive. After a decade i lost my tolerance for shitcoiners not willing to study anything and not act in good faith but only defend their bags instead of fighting for true sovreignty.

Sorry to break it to you but Farage is a massive grifter, sure he says things you like but its about and always been about him gaining personal power. He says 'bitcoin' yay, woo etc. He'll still be working for the Industrial Military Complex, selling anything he can to Palentir and all the shit the others do but with different branding. If you're really into independence and freedom, I'd treat him with the same contempt worthy of Starmer and Johnson. He's not your mate.

The system always gives you a choice of two almost indistinguishable parties and a protest vote to syphon off the trouble makers - when people normally reject a main party they will vote in the other main party, this time BOTH main parties have sunk themselves and the protest vote was getting traction. People were flocking to Reform and then Farage started accepting all the migrants from the failed main parties. In the process of this, people realised that Reform was just another aspect of the Uniparty, Now the flow of energy and voters are going elsewhere - the Greens and Restore look like they will be the upcoming main parties as they pick up the people who didn't fit into the existing system. Farage, for all of his skills getting the media to talk about him and his party, really has fumbled the ball now and is looking less like a contender for the next election.

I agree that 95% - 99% of the market is as you describe BUT even Bitcoin has forked over time and even now is undergoing the Core vs Knots heresy! I understand the religious nature of the argument, belonging to "The One True Coin!" is very attractive but real sovereignty means having a choice between competing options. Bitcoin is the current market leader (by a long way!) but that doesn't mean that better options won't appear in the market over time - Even Satoshi would agree with that as he moved on to other projects...

I have to push back. Bitcoin isn’t just another belief or story. Unlike fiat or ideologies, it’s enforced by math, cryptography, proof-of-work, and auditable code that has run trustlessly for 17 years. Satoshi left in 2011 to eliminate founder risk. A visible creator is a single point of failure: legal pressure, coercion, personality cult. His exit was deliberate design to make Bitcoin antifragile. The wheel can only be invented once. Bitcoin solved permissionless digital scarcity without intermediaries. Copies and “improvements” usually sacrifice decentralization or security. Narratives and psychology exist around it, sure. But strip them away and the protocol still works exactly as coded. That’s what sets it apart from pure belief systems.

A cool story is still a story... We take it on trust that Satoshi was a lone programmer or very small team that managed perfect opsec and didn't hang around for long after proof of concept was established. The wallets attributed to them haven't been touched since they were mined except for a tiny number of coins that were exchanged whilst they were still active. The story is a good one but is it the right one? If Satoshi was part of the intelligence community for example, all of this could be an elaborate psyop or long con, how would we react if all of his coins suddenly were part of the American Bitcoin Reserve? OR they turned out to be Russian or Chinese? Yes, it still works as coded but a lot of its power does come from its story. Bitcoin's concept arrived just when it was needed but if someone else had invented it, maybe other concepts would have been included that would have made it better? The fact that every coin can be traced unless it goes into a mixer is a concern. Maybe a different algorithm would be more quantum resistant, even things like the halving's and total number of coins could have been done differently - what would Bitcoin look like if we had got to this level of penetration with more coins left to mine? All the OG's have big bags and the rest of us who joined just a few years later have the scrapings - If Satoshi's motives were different to the ones we believe in, what looks like the perfect coin now, could turn out to be a very different story in a decade or two's time... This is why I believe that although 99% of the altcoins are useless, there is still a need for coins other than Bitcoin - if only to give us options to try stuff before committing it to the One True Coin!
