A lot of people have everything they wanted and still feel dissatisfied. They skipped the work of becoming who they wanted to be.

Bitcoin isn’t money created by governments. It’s money created by code and math. Institutions can’t stop it—so they try to control the narrative with ETFs and custody. Self-custody is the opt-out. Bitcoin is the exit. @Michael Jordan had @Tony | thebitcoinway.com ⚡️ on for our 100th podcast episode to discuss.

Europe isn’t integrating. It’s fracturing. Bulgaria just proved it. The cracks are no longer theoretical.

WE are Bitcoin. Since Day 1, we have been unwavering in our message: Bitcoin in self-custody, ONLY. And 2025 has proven our point.

This is what momentum looks like. Quiet. Global. Relentless. #Bitcoin is finding its place.
