I made my point, so I feel no need to lecture about it.  Do what you want, and it seems quite doubtful to me that NOT tatooing yourself has as many disadvantages as tatooing yourself, and part of the reason is op sec.  Personal choice off course.

By the way, when filthy rich fucks are amongst their fellow other filthy rich fucks, that would be an appropriate time for flaunting as much wealth as you can because your safety is not at jeopardy because the other filthy rich fucks are doing the same.

When you are walking down the street, you are not in club med or in some other location that surrounds you with other filthy rich fucks, then it is much better to at least make an appearance of attempting to fit in and to NOT make yourself any BIGGER of a target than you need to be made.  Sure, regular peeps are going to realize that you are not one of them and that you likely have more money than them, but if you don't flaunt the bullshit, then they are not going to be able determine (or even care perhaps) to know whether you have 5x more than them or 1,000x more than them.  If you flaunt wealth or other aspects about yourself (through a tattoo or other kinds of labelling), you have much less plausible deniability - and I would not want to put myself into those kinds of positions - even though other peeps are going to come to differing conclusions that might fill their lives with the kinds of drama (and attention) that they want and I would prefer to lessen in my own personal life.

Make your own choice of course.  I am not attempting to stop you or anyone else from making their own life choices about tattoos and other things like that, but I continue to personally believe that these should be thought out choices rather than spontaneous ones... and not mere rationalizations based on your having already gone down that path...  and in that regard, tattoos are more irreversible and difficult to hide as compared to other forms of flaunting your wealth, if you choose to do so from time to time.... and in that regard, I have no problem with flaunting your wealth from time to time... and also enjoying nice things... which is why many of us have accumulated a lot of bitcoins, hopefully in order to spend some of them or at least to otherwise to be able to spend our other less valuable money that we hold alongside of our bitcoin that we may not need to spend if we have managed our overall portfolios well.

Merited.

This is good advice, and we should all take opsec very seriously, or we risk getting our precious BTC wrenched out of us and into the wallets of thieves. A while back, a Turkish guy had posted on Facebook that he owned 400+ BTC. Notice the past tense "owned"... He was kidnapped, tortured, and his BTC taken from him.

Tattooing BTC on an exposed part of your body is like inviting criminals to do the above to you. Just be extra careful and never openly boast about your stash, especially to people you don't know well. If someone asks, just say you're into the technology and want to be part of the revolution, but never that you own a good amount of corn.
