The day I always feared has come! Arsen Thagapsov asked me to record TikToks for @Relai 🇨🇭. Godspeed.

Bitcoin is fixing Democracy on the Internet 🚀 The Internet has been captured and slowly turned into a monopoly playhouse for Big Tech. The only way out of this is by embracing the peer-to-peer foundation it was once built on, and what better native currency is there for it than BTC with all its glory. I went on a little side quest in my latest blog to answer the question of why all of this happened and how Bitcoin can be a guiding hand going forward! Here's the link to the blog:

Perplexity's new Comet browser is all the rage now. 🔥 It's the first semi-agentic browser that has an AI assistant baked in. I've been using it for a few weeks now and thought I would share my impressions and experiences with you.

Dear Boomers, it’s not hard to understand Bitcoin. It’s the best protection against devaluation, makes you fully independent (please hold it in self-custody), and is the only truly scarce good in the digital realm. What are you waiting for?! 🍊

Balaji was on fire in this one 🔥

Today marks the first interview in my Substack Interview series, where I get to speak to engaging and thought-provoking people in Bitcoin, AI, and Tech. Today, I had the pleasure of speaking with Mark Connors and diving deep into the financing of Bitcoin, why Wall Street loves the spot Bitcoin ETFs, and what we can expect from the suits in the future.

The White House has ignored Bitcoin in its report, while Ray Dalio recommends it. Rumours are circulating again that the four-year cycle is dead - that and much more in this week's news. 💪

It's not a proper Bitcoin bull run unless publicly traded miners are lagging behind. However, this time around, things look a bit different. 👀

It’s as simple as that. 😎 Bitcoin in self-custody is the ultimate hedge. You can dabble with ETFs and other instruments but should always hold the underlying asset!

Oh wow. Not the best look if one of the top writers gets away with plagiarism… 😳

Boy, that escalated quickly 👀

Am I now one of the cool kids? 🤨

Bitcoin’s dominance seems to have peaked. Which means altcoins are gonna go crazy soon. Get ready for stupid takes on social media and a whole lot of FOMO pushes by influencers 🫠

AI Browsers are all the rage now and changing the way we engage with content. 🔥 Bitcoin has the ability to do the same, but it appears to be missing out on many fronts. I drew a comparison between the two in my latest blog. Spoiler: It's a hefty one! Here's the link to the blog:

It's Bitcoin silly season with crazy price calls. 👀 Seems like everyone is hyper bullish and wanting to get as much BTC as possible. That and much more in this week's news video:

Substack just dropped its own AI report, and guess what? Not many writers are using it. It seems like the hardcore users are the ones who are into it and more on the older side of things. I’d love to see WordPress or other online publishers release their own reports too. Report:

The Substack AI Report

We asked 2,000 Substack publishers how they’re using and thinking about AI. Here’s what we found.
