"Stack sats for your last name, not your first name." That one sentence changes how you think about everything. If I've bought bitcoin for my grandkids, why would I buy a Lamborghini? Why do anything selfish? You stop optimizing for yourself and start optimizing for the people who come after you. That's what sound money does to a society.

Core inflation hit 4.2% with zero rate cuts expected. We've seen eight straight weeks of ETF outflows. Bitcoin seems to be consolidating at 63k. Absolute geopolitical chaos. But guess what? None of it matters to me. I'm in it for good. For the long term.

Bitcoiners are trained to ask one question: Is this true? That question eventually gets bigger than money. @jimmysong on why so many bitcoiners find Christ. Full episode here:

Bitcoin teaches you the system lied. Christ shows you the harder truth. You are not as good as you think you are. The biggest barrier between bitcoiners and Christ is sin. Full episode with @jimmysong on the Adam O’Brien Show is out now:

There's a pattern in the bitcoin space: skeptical, first-principles thinkers keep turning to Christianity. Full episode w/ @jimmysong out now. Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction 3:48 Begging his dad for a Commodore 16, then learning BASIC from a pregnant tutor 14:27 Writing two-hour emails in college made him a better thinker 23:53 2008 and Ron Paul's End the Fed turned a coder into a libertarian 26:43 The five-person email list that became his first Bitcoin community 33:38 Nobody predicting AI's future actually has a clue what it will become 40:11 The COVID Bible study that became Thank God for Bitcoin 48:56 Bitcoiners keep converting to Christianity through slow, methodical study 1:03:44 Judges over Kings, and what Israel lost by demanding a ruler 1:07:19 René Girard, mimetic rivalry, and why kings function as sacrificial scapegoats 1:13:08 The pattern of losing VP candidates as modern-day scapegoats 1:20:03 Coming to terms with sin is the real barrier for Bitcoiners meeting Christ

Strategy sold 3,588 coins last week. That’s 3,588 of you that can become whole coiners.

I have a property that won’t sell - thinking about running an airbnb play and putting profits into bitcoin I’ll then compare that against what would have happened if I had fire sold and bought bitcoin (fire sale price ~65% of asking value I’m thinking?) The playbook I’m thinking: - take out the max mortgage and put whatever equity I have into bitcoin* - hire out the management (I don’t need another job) - take revenue less costs (maintenance + debt service + management fee) and put the rest immediately into BTC (via @bitcoinwell of course) * I already have debt on the property, can probably get ~$200k out if I max up the mortgage rate (and they approve a bitcoin guy like me 😅) Would you be interested in following along? I’ll open up the numbers and be pretty transparent with all that stuff. I think fire sale might result in more BTC, but time will tell!
