Look at the price of #bitcoin right now. Do you feel nervous, scared, want to panic sell? Or do you remain calm and maybe even buy because consider this an opportunity? Do you think if you sell now, you’ll look back at some point and regret that? Why not take a walk. Take a shower. Think about what you own before you make a decision you might wish you didn’t make. Study and know what you have. You’ll feel better. #gn #btc #grownostr #relax #plebchain

I know a lot of people are sharing this but some haven’t given credit to Jeff Park from BitWise, so just doing it on my end here. This conclusion pretty much matches with what @less has been saying for months now. I’d bet #bitcoin is going higher, sooner. Not financial advice obviously, you do you. image

Think about how crazy it is to say your money, which you work so hard for, isn’t your property… so the government can take it at will. In what universe are you okay with this? “The DOJ just argued that your money isn’t actually property—so the government can take it at will. If that sounds insane, it’s because it is. A federal court will decide if this madness stands.” #news #grownostr #bitcoin #btc #property #rights #freedom #plebchain image

I keep trying to come up with simple ways to explain why #bitcoin is a worthy investment. Here’s another attempt, thoughts?: The US Dollar, the strongest currency, is literally designed to debase (lose value) because of its 2% inflation target. The US Dollar is mathematically designed to go down in value while Bitcoin is designed to go up in value with its fixed supply. I still don’t think I’m there but still trying… more detail: This means the fed WANTS to print *just enough* dollars to maintain inflation at 2%. Let’s assume their metric for inflation is right (it’s not), that means BY DESIGN, the dollar is scheduled to lose at least 2%. Guaranteed. At 2% per year, your wealth in US Dollars loses half its purchasing power in 35 years. If you know your wealth is being eroded away, why not put it in an asset which won’t erode? #btc #asknostr #grownostr #inflation #saveyourself #plebchain #economics

Good morning! Do something productive today. Not feeling up to it? Start small. Get up and take a shower. Take a short walk. Read a few pages. Do a chore you’ve been procrastinating. Brew some #coffee Take a step and the rest will happen. #gm #plebchain #coffeechain #espresso #grownostr image

You buy, it drops. You buy, it drops. You cry. Long-term, you look back and laugh. AKA: Buy the dip. Hold. #bitcoin #btc

There are a lot of dumb people in this world. There are a lot of slow people too. Sometimes you meet one that's both. It's fascinating to watch. image

Good morning! A bunch of stuff will happen to you today, hopefully all good. Some crap will likely head your way too. Don’t let the crap slow you down and definitely don’t dwell on it. Focus on the good stuff that’s happening. #gm #positivity #plebchain #grownostr

Thought this would be a great chart to share with all the gold bugs high-fiving while watching a live stream of Peter Schiff sift through his Rolodex trying to find anyone else who might have @Michael Saylor 's contact. Even with today's nominal all-time high price, gold isn't even close to breaking it's inflation-adjusted all-time high from January of 1980... January of 1980! That's 45 years of monetary debasement and inflation eroding the savings of those who historically believed gold was the best store of value. Your best hedge to protect your purchasing power. Now, compare gold’s performance to Bitcoin, and you don’t have to be Peter Brandt to analyze the chart and see which direction gold is likely headed. Not financial advice, so I’m not saying buy Bitcoin… but maybe… buy some $BTC? #NFA #bitcoin #btc #gold #inflation #grownostr #plebchain @Jeff Booth @preston @less @ODELL

Investing is stupid easy now. Or just stupid? Because of debasement of currency + inflation, QE/bailouts, and passive investing, everyone piles into US Stocks. Mainly into the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indices. This has become the store of value for most people. No matter how bad the news, all you have to do is buy the dip and wait. Even the “bear” market of 2022, was relatively timid and short. This will continue to be the easiest way to outperform most active managers, just buy $VOO and $QQQ ($QQQM) and sit back. It works until it doesn’t, at which point you pivot. So far this has been the play since 2009 and it doesn’t seem like it’s going to change soon. Only one asset outperforms US stocks, if you’re willing to handle the volatility, and that’s bitcoin. Adding $BTC to your portfolio has never been easier and the long-term performance is stunning. Sure you can analyze all the fundamentals of every stock you want and chart to your hearts content, but most people are unlikely to outperform the indices over time. For now just keep it simpl. It’s a better use of your time to focus on what you do best. Earn dollars and put them to work buying hard assets. Won’t be needing the intelligent investor for a while… NOT financial advice. You do you. #NFA #gm #stocks #bitcoin #btc #sp500 #nasdaq #qqq #qqqm #investing #plebchain #grownostr image
