.@The Bitcoin Conference looks more political rally than Bitcoin conference. It’s jam-packed with senators, presidents, candidates and what not.

Truly inspiring film. Shows the power of building on Bitcoin with the same decentralised, open-to-all ethos. Recommended. View quoted note →

“It is important to distinguish between Milei’s supportive stance towards bitcoin and his actual economic policies..” Good article. View quoted note →

The flippening. BTC > GBP

BTC > £

Just been in the baker’s for a loaf. £4. I remember a woman in there not five years ago who couldn’t believe the price. “£2? For a LOAF?” she said. 14% annual inflation doubles the price in 5 years. This is theft, pure and simple. But it isn’t the baker doing the stealing.

Big moves in hard assets this month: Gold ⬆️ 10% Bitcoin ⬆️ 14% What does this tell us about the world?

Stating the obvious makes headlines in fiat land.

Read to the end. You might feel as ashamed as I do. View quoted note →

Everything Divided By 7 Million: Popular Bitcoin Price Heuristics Are Missing The Mark

Some of the most popular bitcoin price prediction tools are underestimating the impact of migrating capital.

My latest for #[0]​ is on ordinal inscriptions. It spotlights the misleading way they are presented, falsely implying that Bitcoin itself enforces inscription ownership (it doesn’t).

No, Bitcoin Ordinals Do Not Inscribe Data Onto Sats

Whether Ordinal inscriptions are good or bad for Bitcoin, misleading descriptions need to be called out.
