Someone told me they wanted to start buying Bitcoin every week, but they were concerned about buying above 100,000 as they believe it is too expensive. At 20,000$ , I was told it was too expensive. When it crashed back to 3300$, I was told it was a scam. When it went to 60,000$, I was told it was unsustainable due to emergency monetary policy by the Fed. When it crashed to 16,000$, I was told it was a scam again. The truth is, Bitcoin is not a risk, it is a matter of understanding. I never once looked at Bitcoin and thought to myself “oh wow, that’s expensive, I should try something else.” I was introduced to it and said “wow, this solves everything”. Some understand concepts quicker than others. To me, Bitcoin was instantly understood. If you’re constantly questioning the price of it, then with all due respect, it means you don’t understand enough about it. Seek to understand, and no price will be considered too high.
Yesterday, 80,000 #BTC (worth roughly $8 billion) were moved on-chain. These coins date back to 2011, before the BIP39 standard existed. Back then, private keys were managed individually per address, with no hardware wallet support (even today). This suggests the keys were stored in a wallet.dat file, and the transaction was likely signed using a software wallet like Electrum. From a security standpoint, this is absolutely insane!

How much #Bitcoin do you need to save today to be able to fully fund your child’s education in 18 years?
Save/buy #Bitcoin daily (NOT the ETF). Move to cold storage every few grand. HODL 10+ years. NEVER miss a day. In the meantime, learn real skills so you can increase your daily buys. Live within your means. Your life will change in 5 years, and be completely beyond your imagination in 10 - dream big!
Ross Ulbricht is not a saint. He enabled crime. He ran a marketplace where real people got hurt. That matters. It always will. But let’s be honest—he also built the first use-case that forced Bitcoin into the real world. He showed the world that code could outmaneuver control. And for that, they didn’t give him a sentence. They gave him a silence. Two life sentences. For code. While bankers launder billions and walk free? The 300 BTC donation isn’t celebrating crime. It’s mourning proportion. It’s a whisper from the network: “We saw what you did. We also see what they’ve done.” Justice must be real. But justice must also be measured. For those caught in the middle: - “What does it say when a drug site founder gets life, but bankers get bailouts?” - “Why the 300 BTC isn’t about approval - it’s about proportion” - “What the network remembers… and what the courts erased” - “The line between punishment and message - is this justice, or warning?” Wrote this with a clenched jaw and conflicted heart. That’s how I know it’s TRUE. #Bitcoin
