When a hard money shows up on the market (Bitcoin) you have no choice. You have to adopt it if you want to survive and thrive. That's because easy money (Fiat) can always increase in supply. There is nothing stopping central banks from issuing more units of their money. What are the implications if you don't adopt the hard money over the easy money? Every good and service that you rely on to survive - housing, food, water, clothing, gas, cars - will continue to get more expensive over time, forever (or until the currency fails). Ask someone from Argentina, Lebanon, or Venezuela what their life was like during the massive inflation of their native currency. Life just kept on getting worse and worse. Their economies were destroyed. When you adopt a hard money like #Bitcoin, the complete opposite happens. Because there is an ultimate fixed supply of the monetary units, every good and service you may want or need in your life will keep getting less expensive when denominated in BTC. I operate under the assumption that humans are self-interested. We all have to be to survive. Because of this fact of human nature, everyone will gravitate towards a hard money over time. Everyone wants their life to get easier not harder as time goes on. Everyone can begin making life easier by adopting the hardest money humans have ever come across: Bitcoin.

If you purchase a weapon to defend yourself, do you immediately take it over to your local police station so that they can custody it for you? No, that would defeat the purpose. When the time comes to actually defend yourself against an aggressor, your weapon is locked in a basement miles away. So, why do we trust our economic weapons, our money and our assets, with custodians i.e. banks and financial institutions? We are all putting our own lives in the hands of strangers. Corporations who don't give a shit if we live or die, only that they profit from our accounts. #Bitcoin is an economic weapon that you can self-custody. It is perhaps the greatest economic weapon that humanity has ever seen. It is an impenetrable, invisible treasure chest in cyberspace. If you self-custody properly, it will always be there for you in a time of need. Let's not be naive - while we seemed to have progressed massively as a society in the last 100 years, there are still dangerous predators in our world that we must protect ourselves against. Bitcoin is self-defense. It will lock your economic power in the most powerful digital network on Earth. And when you need to tap into that power, you can rely on yourself, draw on that energy, and protect yourself.

Everyone in my generation is sick and tired of the Death Economy we've inherited, whether they are conscious of it or not. I borrowed the term from John Perkins, who wrote "Confessions of An Economic Hitman." The Death Economy is: - Endless debt - Endless wars - Constant anxiety around making ends meet - Constant division and polarization in society We're sick of all this shit. And we're done playing along with it. #Bitcoin for a Life Economy. If anyone is against us, they can GFT.

Biden Admin, Warren and her Anti-Crypto Army were the Bad Cop. Trump Admin are the Good Cop. Just because they are saying a lot of nice things about #Bitcoin doesn't mean that they aren't still cops. Fuck the state. We are going to build this thing whether they like it or not.

BBB - Big Beautiful Bill? Nah BBB - Buy #Bitcoin Brother.

I don't really give a shit about how public companies, governments, or influencers interact with #Bitcoin. The whole point of Bitcoin is it gives you the ability to be an individual, focus on yourself and your loved ones, and ignore a ton of noise and bullshit in the world. Saylor doesn't want to produce Proof of Reserves? IDGAF. Jack Dorsey wants to move away from sats? IDGAF. Wen US Gov buying? IDGAF. Yes, I've been tempted into following the news on a lot of this stuff. It's exciting to see the adoption grow and the conversation change. But the beautiful thing is that most of this stuff is irrelevant to a regular guy like me. I hold my own keys. I run my own node. I reserve the right to not give a fuck about what everyone else in the space is doing, so long as it doesn't affect the security or decentralization of the network. It's more peaceful this way. Highly recommend.

I'm all in on #Bitcoin. And I'm making it my mission to help other entrepreneurs and small business owners become all in on Bitcoin through my work with @Sovreign. My thesis around building a Life Economy starts with sound money, and we need thousands of small businesses holding BTC on their balance sheet to make it happen. Public bitcoin treasury companies don't really excite me. Thousands and thousands of small businesses around the United States stacking 🌽 is what excites me.

I couldn't be more excited to share that I have joined @Sovreign as their Vice President. Over the past few years, I realized that I want to dedicate the next chapter of my professional life to helping drive #Bitcoin adoption throughout the US and beyond. Sovreign boasts a great team of principled Bitcoiners, and our mission is to help accelerate Bitcoin adoption in the world of business. The team and I will not quit until we have helped thousands of small business owners and entrepreneurs understand and benefit from this profound technology. It's my firm belief that small business Bitcoin adoption will be a catalyst for an empowering Life Economy, where endless wars and unfathomable debt is rare, and abundance and peace is the norm. Wish us luck!
