The world's central banks just made a move that speaks louder than any speech. Gold has officially surpassed US Treasuries as the largest central bank reserve asset. While politicians argue about tariffs and GDP revisions, the smart money is rotating out of dollar-denominated debt into the oldest form of money on earth. Central banks aren't speculating. They're preparing. Bitcoin benefits from the same thesis, finite supply, outside the monetary system, no counterparty risk. When the system signal gets noisy, the smart money finds the exit.

The US economy just fell off a cliff. Q4 2025 GDP growth was initially reported at 2.8%. Then revised to 0.7%. Now revised again to 0.5%. The previous quarter was 4.4%. That's a 3.9 percentage point collapse in one revision cycle. Three separate downward revisions in a row. That doesn't happen in healthy economies. And while the economy was falling, the government kept spending. Because that's what governments do. We flagged stagflation in March. The data just confirmed it. The Fed faces the worst possible scenario: no growth, persistent inflation, and no clean monetary policy path. Rate hikes fight inflation but worsen stagnation. Rate cuts stimulate growth but worsen inflation. You cannot win. The government's only exit is debasement. Quiet, permanent erosion of what your dollars are worth. Bitcoin doesn't solve this. But it's outside the system that's creating the problem. Fixed supply. No central bank can print more when the budget pressure mounts. That's not speculation. That's arithmetic.

First time in its history Bitcoin has closed a weekly candle above 120k. 🚀🚀

Is there any reason why you wouldn’t spend a couple of hundred $ on a Bitaxe variant and mine from your home?

GM Nostr.

Hello. I am currently using 2 clients to access my Nostr on iOS, Damus and Primal. However I have an issue with both of them. Firstly on Damus. The zap symbol for individual posts is missing. Any reason why I can’t see it? Secondly on Primal. I am running my own private relay, which I have been able to add to Damus but I am unable to add to Primal. My relay address is an onion address and it starts with ws://…. Primal will not accept it. When I use the wss://….. address it is unreachable. I have tried with Tor active and inactive. Any reason why Primal will not accept the ws://…. address? #asknostr.

Using Nostr now is similar to using a crypto hot wallet. You need to enter your private key onto your device to gain full access via a client. When will “cold” accounts be possible? Meaning, having the ability to store your private key offline and using a device similar to a ledger to access a Nostr client. #nostr #privacy

As of January 2024 there are approx. 18000 Bitcoin Nodes running. Is this enough? Anyone who owns Bitcoin should run a node. I use #start9 server. #sparrow wallet and #ledger to store my keys. We need to increase the nodes. #BITCOIN  #bitcoinlightning #lightning.
