It is a matter of hours now before the new marketplace launches. We are all standing on the edge of greatness.
As the marketplace launches please remember to take a moment and appreciate the amount of time and effort put into all of this. Appreciate those that are in the trenches of this war against tyranny, those that risk their freedom to bring us, the user, this amazing place.
Remember, and appreciate, that every transaction made here is outside of the control of the oppressors and therefore damages their ability to maintain. This does not mean that they are powerless mind you, they will attack, they will try their damnedest to bring down what has been started here today. But if we remain vigilant, if we remain a community of people that care for each other and watch each others backs we will hold strong against the tide.
Remember what you have learned from past mistakes; no marketplace is fully impenetrable, no vendor is untouchable. No person is worthy of your complete trust except yourself. You and only you are responsible for your safety and your freedom.
Remember that this place is not about drugs or money, it is about freedom. It is about the liberty, responsibility, and right that each human is innately given at birth to make their own decisions and not to have the decisions of others forced upon them. We stand as an example and testament to that right.
We rise, brothers and sisters, to a new day, and new opportunities.
I am honored to be here with all of you.
