I built something I think is useful with Claude Code. It's called Stack Buddy. I don't think it's AI slop, at least I hope not. Link below if you want to check it out. Here's the back story on it... I'm starting a new business this year and working 6-7 days a week in what feels like two jobs. I feel like 2026 through 2028 will be an interesting window for two things: using AI to build leverage in my small business, and stacking sats while we're still well below the Power Law trendline. Stack Buddy is the calculator I wanted for myself to see if I worked my face off, how much I could stack in this period. So I built in between sessions with Claude Code and Codex The first thing it does is simple: You put in your income, your tax rate, your monthly expenses, and what you're trying to save in fiat, and it tells you how much BTC you can realistically buy each month. Rough numbers are fine. The second thing is more interesting. You put in a target stack and a deadline, and it shows you three different paths to get there. - Flat monthly DCA - Front-loading heavier early when the price is below trend - A custom mix of DCA and smash buys. For the third scenario, you might do 2x your normal DCA on January 1 and July 1 each year, plus a tax-refund buy each April. The math anchor is what I'm calling the "Catch-Up Power Law." The price today is well below the Power Law trendline, and the question is when we get back to it. For the price model I ran that question through several AIs looking for the most defensible price guess, and June 30, 2028 came back as the answer with the strongest justification. Obviously I'd hold that date loosely but the calculator needs a concrete anchor and that's the one I'm using. The model lets you see what your plan looks like under that assumption and stress-test how sensitive your stack is to the timing. A few things worth knowing before you click through... - It runs entirely in your browser, doesn't call any LLM, doesn't store your numbers anywhere, and there's no account system. - The whole thing is open source on GitHub, and there's a download button at the bottom of the app if you want to grab the code, fork it, or run it yourself in Claude Code or Codex. - And maybe the coolest part, is there's also a prompt you can download and paste into a privacy-respecting LLM like @Maple , Venice.ai, or you can wire up @PayPerQ API if you want to talk through your plan with an AI rather than just clicking buttons. I'd love to know what you think and if you have suggestions on improvements I'd love to hear them. #bitcoin #stack #stacking #ai #claudecode #codex

GM 😀👊 I don’t know if I can work harder or more hours - long push of 7 days a week through June - but with the price going up to 81k it’s even more motivation to stack this year. A couple of weeks ago I told a friend who has a bit of bitcoin that the bottom might be in. He thought not. We’ll see. Have a great day! #coffeechain #bitcoin

I’m still new enough to bitcoin that paying on chain is still interesting. Maybe it always will be. 🤔 #bitcoin

I’ve been working 6-7 days a week for the past 10 weeks. More weeks like this to come. I think I can let up on the gas in July, but I could be wrong. I have a friend who ran 100 mile races in the mountains and he would talk about “all day pace.” I’m trying to dial that in. There’s a lot I can do to leverage ai, but I think that window will close fastest than I’d like. And I’m not sure the bitcoin price will be 0.6-0.7 power law for years to come. I’m late to this whole Bitcoin thing so I’m mostly happy for it to be at these levels. Two windows closing faster than I’d like is my general outlook. What are your thoughts? #ai #bitcoin

For roughly a month I've been using Codex as an "auditor" for what I'm building in Claude Code. It's worked well, but it's a lot of back and forth. I found the following plugin tonight from a YouTuber and it's perfect. Looking forward to using it this week to speed things up. #ai #claude #codex

A cold shower and this soap are the hate/love of my morning. I dislike the cold water, but I love the @SoapMiner soap. And free shipping! 🙏🏻👊 #worththesats #circulareconomy image

Noting like trying to send a wire to remind you how great bitcoin is. “You know this transaction is final, correct?” Aren’t they all? #bitcoin
