“Going to prison was a gift.” Jill Ford doesn’t say that lightly. She lost her business, her freedom, and nearly her family. But inside, she found perspective. Her kids saw what she carried. Her husband realized what he’d taken for granted. She read The Bitcoin Standard in prison. Taught other women about Bitcoin. And came out stronger.

WEF talks sustainability but backs energy-hungry fiat printing. Bitcoin mining drives renewable innovation and energy markets.

What if we’ve been looking at white-collar crime the wrong way? Jill Ford didn’t set out to commit a crime. She was a mom, a business owner, trying to survive a debt spiral during COVID. She misunderstood the terms of a government loan — and ended up in federal prison. While serving her sentence, she found Bitcoin. And with it, something deeper: A lens to understand the broken incentives behind our money system — and the desperation it creates. “So many women in there were in for money-related crimes. The debt cycle. Survival. The kind of mistakes no one teaches you how to avoid.” Jill’s not excusing what she did. She’s owning it. But she’s also asking better questions. What if we treated financial illiteracy as a public failure, not just a personal one? Full story now live. This one will stay with you.

🚨The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has recently classified Bitcoin as a capital asset.

After serving 20 months in federal prison, Jill was exposed to the harsh realities and inequities of the traditional financial system, particularly affecting marginalized communities. This experience fueled her mission to leverage Bitcoin as a decentralized, accessible solution to systemic financial injustices. Jill founded Bitford Digital, a Dallas-based company dedicated to sustainable Bitcoin mining powered by renewable energy, emphasizing ethics and environmental responsibility. She also champions financial literacy programs aimed at formerly incarcerated women and underrepresented groups, working to empower them with technical skills and financial independence. Jill’s story is a profound testament to second chances and the power of Bitcoin to change lives.

Superman = Bitcoin = Hero
