Given most Bitcoiners’ propensity for anonymity and privacy, they probably could not care less about societal measures of success, including status, popularity, fame and fortune. Staying humble is their mantra, and stacking sats is what they never waver from.

However, what are your thoughts on leaving a legacy? Do you need to feel that your life matters in the grand scheme of things? That you have left your unique mark on the world?

Or you don’t necessarily have to contribute to the world in your professional capacity? You take pride in raising your children to be responsible and empathetic adults - and your offspring is only the legacy that you will need to leave behind.

Just live your life doing what you feel is right and the legacy will just take care of itself. No need to overthink this.

I like this sanguine attitude!

One of the many reasons I draw cartoons is the chance to create a legacy. There’s the not insignificant chance that it’s an embarrassing legacy for my kids and grandkids, but I’m willing to take that risk. I’ve been doing it roughly once a week for two years and I know it’s sustainable. I enjoy playing with micropayments and AI cartooning. I have raked in hundreds of sats to date. Hopefully you see the humor in that. 20 more years of this, and my humor’s gonna be scattered everywhere across the interweb. Hmmmm…Maybe my goal is to embarrass my lineage. My latest.

Thanks for sharing so much of yourself. Your words resonate with me because I have similar motivations for maintaining my blog. 2 years is impressive! To keep your flow of ideas flowing and be committed to realising them.

Hope you post more of your drawings here

My legacy will live on through my children. As long as I leave a mark on them

I think that the best legacy we can give to the world 🌎, if we have children, is to try to leave behind whole beings, beings that contribute to the development of the world.

Self-actuated independent beings who bring their true spirit in everything they do!

Mostly that. You never know what might be a lasting impact, though.

Word. Children are their own beings. I read somewhere that we can only be responsible toward them, not for them
