If you are not an insider, don't dabble with Altcoins. VCs, angels, founders & their teams, have several advantages - early access at deep discounts, exclusive info, tokenomics, short vesting periods and strategic manipulation. The odds are stacked against retail. #Bitcoin, on the other hand, offers a level playing field. Understand the difference, before jumping in! image
#Bitcoin is that uninvited guest who just won't leave the global financial party - and instead, politely escorts unbacked fiat out the door, one block at a time.
Bitcoin’s hash rate has hit new highs. This rising computing power means greater network security, higher mining difficulty, and growing confidence in Bitcoin. It is beyond late and prohibitively expensive for any entity to overpower and control the Bitcoin network with a 51% attack. The Bitcoin network is stronger than ever. Study #Bitcoin and protect your economic energy. image
Self-custodied Bitcoin is impenetrable. No one can simply "guess" their way to access/move your Bitcoin. Even an advanced attacker using High Performance Computing to brute-force their way in - cannot come close to your stash. Self-custody your #Bitcoin and protect your wealth. image
Bitcoin is a paradigm shift, not a bubble! Studying historical financial events reveal a stark contrast between: 1. Bubbles like the Tulip Mania which resulted in permanent capital destruction for the vast majority, versus 2. Paradigm shifts such as the invention of Joint Stock Company that has had a lasting impact on value creation. Understanding this distinction is crucial for grasping #Bitcoin's role in changing our world. image
The #Bitcoin protocol is engineered to perfection! Any changes to its transaction throughput or lead times will result in detrimental trade-offs such as greater centralization, security risks, higher energy costs, and loss of privacy. No need to 'fix' what's already flawless! image
Miss the good old days of double-entry 'oversights' and rounding 'errors'? Too bad - #Bitcoin’s got cryptographic hashing, public access, and the memory of an elephant.🐘 No more creative accounting tricks here. Guess, honesty really is the best policy… 🙄💪 image
The 60/40 portfolio is dying, either add to risk-on assets or get debased of your wealth! Since 2000, the category of Private Investors has given-up 17.9% of its share of ownership in U.S. federal debt (e.g. U.S. treasuries, gov. bonds, etc.). Treasuries & bonds have become redundant due to high rates of dollar debasement, supressed yields & low interest rate from federal debt instruments and price volatility in the bond markets. Over the long-term, hiding behind fixed income instruments can be very damaging to portfolios. With more rate cuts on the horizon, the financial markets might swing strongly towards a 'risk-on' environment. And private investors holding fixed income federal debt instruments will have to pay a very steep price in high opportunity cost. #Bitcoin can offer a way out. Invest your time to study it and take decisive action. image
Engineering a 'soft landing' is easy, when you are the biggest employer in the U.S. During 2023, the U.S. government sector added close to 709K jobs, almost equivalent to the total number of employees at Kroger and CVS Health! Seems like the playbook is to: 1. Print money, cut rates & add liquidity 2. Create government jobs 3. Re-ignite demand And call it a 'soft landing'. The fiat game built on deficit, debt & debasement is all smoke & mirrors. Studying Bitcoin helps you to cut-through the noise and see exactly what is going-on. Do yourself a favour - study #Bitcoin. image
Retirement assets are being used to sustain the fiat financial system. Whether it is lock-in periods in 401(k) & IRAs OR penalties for early withdrawals OR non cost-of-living adjusted pay-outs from Pensions & Annuities. The goal is to enable more Deficit, Debt & Debasement. Wake up to #Bitcoin. image
U.S. Govt. Debt = 110% of U.S. Retirement Assets If this trend continues, the retirement security of millions will be put at risk. Faced with potential debt servicing challenges, the US Govt. can simply pass policies that make retiring hard if not extremely difficult. Policies such as - increasing your retirement age, delaying penalty-free access to your 401(k) & IRA beyond 59.5 years, raising retirement taxes, reducing cost of living adjustments, etc. are all fair game to them. It is important to see through this mismanagement and protect yourself from being at mercy of policy reforms down-the-line. Study #Bitcoin. And once you do, you will realize that self-custodied BTC can play an essential role in your retirement plans. image
Why worry about capital efficiency, when you can simply print unlimited money. In only 6 years (during 2001-2020) - the U.S. added 1 US$ (or more) of economic growth per dollar of federal debt issued. When money is not a constraint, capital efficiency is not a top priority. Federal debt & budget deficits have been normalized. The government can be 'asleep on the wheel', BUT you don't have to be. Study #Bitcoin and protect your economic energy. image
Uncle Sam is going broke and he knows it! The federal debt is 7.5 times larger than its annual tax receipts, and the government spends 1.4 times more than it collects in taxes. But, oh yes! The Fed can print its way out of the debts. Not really. And, definitely not without consequences. Protect yourself. Study #Bitcoin. image
You paying higher taxes doesn't reduce the budget deficits. Government spending is out of control. The last time U.S. had a surplus federal budget was back in 2001. Indexed to the year 2000, Tax Receipts have grown to 218% and the Budget deficits have grown to 717%! Usually, governments finance these chronic deficits through currency debasement and debasement erodes your savings (& wealth). Plus, through inflation your purchasing power gets diminished. You cannot control how much the government spends, but you can control where you save your hard earned money. Study #Bitcoin! image
Are you early to Bitcoin? Being early or late is a function of your time-of-entry relative to the expected lifespan of an asset. Often, there is too much focus on the former and not enough on the latter. If #Bitcoin becomes what we all expect it to be (a widely accepted superior asset to preserve our economic energy) - then the difference between buying BTC for e.g. in 2019 vs. 2023 will not be significant. Instead of focusing on the last 15 years, there is merit in thinking of its total expected lifespan and simply DCAing into Bitcoin. In a capitalistic world, it pays to have a bias towards the forces of Creative Destruction, where new technologies erode the older ones in pursuit of growth and progress. If you believe in the forces of Creative Destruction, you are early. If not, sorry this ship has sailed. image
'Unbacked' fiat currencies live up the name. As of 2023, in the U.S. only 2.53% of M2 money supply is backed by gold reserves and in Canada the percentage goes down to zero. Being backed by Gold is better than being backed by nothing. Being backed by #Bitcoin is better than being backed by Gold. And, establishing Bitcoin as - the legal tender and the unit-of-account is the best. image
The whole argument of "Gold is better than Bitcoin because it has physical utility" becomes flawed, when +60% of Gold's value is derived from investment & derivative products. Will Gold bugs hung-up on physical utility, be willing to give-up 60% of the value of their holdings? Probably not. Then, mocking Bitcoin does not make any sense. In fact, the right perspective is - unlike Gold, #Bitcoin is the only asset that offers undiluted Store-of-Value characteristics. Bitcoin has one & only one function i.e. to protect your economic energy and its the best at what it does. image
Dumpster diving into Altcoins is injurious to wealth! Many leading Altcoins with hot narratives could never climb back to their 2015-18 cycle tops. Most of them experienced, +60% drawdowns from cycle-top to cycle-top. Respect your hard-earned capital. Study #Bitcoin. image
Doesn't matter how hard you work, the fiat game is rigged (against you). The average annual salary increments across industries fall short of - EITHER beating the rate of inflation, OR the speed of U.S. dollar debasement, OR both. Wake up to #Bitcoin! image
The Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallet framework helps you receive, store and send #Bitcoin. Here is a look under the hood to understand how the HD wallet framework organizes your seedphrase, public & private keys, different accounts and multiple addresses. This tree like structure in HD wallets, integrates multiple protocols (e.g. BIP-32, BIP-39, BIP-44, etc.) to create a robust, flexible and user-friendly system for key & address management. image
