Homeschooling isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about teaching your kids how to find them. Public school trains them to wait for someone to provide the answer. We’re training them to figure it out themselves. One creates dependency. The other creates capability.

I love the nostriches 💜

Strategy’s $STRC is a solid product. Fixed dividend, downside protection, and for investors who want exposure without holding bitcoin directly, it works. But let’s be clear: it’s not bitcoin. You’re holding preferred shares in a COMPANY that holds bitcoin. I respect what Saylor’s doing, he’s orange pilling institutions and showing the world how bitcoin works as a treasury reserve. $STRC is for people who prefer the comfort of a traditional finance wrapping. But just remember: bitcoin is a bearer asset. You can hold it yourself. No Strategy required. If $STRC fits your portfolio, use it. But don’t confuse it with ownership. The goal is still sovereignty.

Bitcoin CEO & Gen Z React to Peak Bitcoin FUD

This week’s show is going to look a little different! @halstonvalencia and I are going live in 30 mins to talk about the latest bitcoin FUD + other crazy things in the world!! Tune in at 6pm EST:

My openclaw afternoon research hit home today. This guy knows his stuff 🧠 AFTERNOON RESEARCH REPORT When Markets Crash: A Biblical Framework for Financial Sovereignty Why this matters today: Bitcoin just crashed below $70K, the timeline is full of panic. This is exactly when framework matters most. THE DEEP DIVE Here's what most people miss: the Bible isn't anti-wealth. It's anti-idolatry. Scripture is relentlessly practical about money, stewardship, and weathering economic storms. The question isn't whether you have wealth. It's whether you're a faithful steward of it. Proverbs 21:20 — "The wise store up choice food and olive oil, but fools gulp theirs down." This isn't about hoarding. It's about time preference. The wise man thinks generationally. He builds reserves. He doesn't consume everything in the present moment because he knows winter comes. Sound familiar? Low time preference is a biblical principle before it's a bitcoin principle. Genesis 41 — Joseph's grain storage strategy during seven years of abundance to survive seven years of famine. This is the original "stack sats" playbook. Joseph didn't trust Pharaoh's monetary system to preserve value through crisis. He stored real goods. He understood that fiat promises fail when stress-tested. Proverbs 13:22 — "A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children." Generational thinking. Your bloodline matters. Your grandchildren's financial sovereignty matters. This verse isn't about leaving your kids a nice retirement fund. It's about building something that outlasts you. Something that can't be debased by a central bank or inflated away by politicians printing their way out of bad decisions. Matthew 25:14-30 — The Parable of the Talents. The master doesn't reward the servant who buried his talent in the ground "for safety." He rewards the ones who put capital at risk and grew it. Stewardship isn't passive. It requires conviction, action, and yes, accepting volatility. Here's the thing about today's drawdown: volatility is not risk. Risk is permanent loss of purchasing power. Risk is trusting a system designed to extract value from your family over generations. A 45% drawdown in an asset that's up 100x over a decade? That's not risk. That's the cost of conviction. Ecclesiastes 11:2 — "Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land." Even Solomon understood position sizing. Concentration builds wealth. Diversification preserves it. The wisdom is knowing which season you're in. The real question a crash forces you to answer: Do you actually believe this? Not intellectually. In your bones. When the timeline screams. When the easy move is to panic sell. Faith isn't tested in the good times. Neither is conviction about money, sovereignty, or the broken monetary system you're trying to exit.

I don’t need my kids to be rich. I need them to be ungovernable. I need them to know how to think, not what to think. To question authority, not blindly submit to it. To build wealth that can’t be confiscated, diluted, or voted away by people who don’t have their best interests at heart. You can’t teach that in a system designed to produce compliance. So we opted out.

The financialization of bitcoin is a symptom of broken money.
