The article misses the bigger point. Montreal rent isn’t just “going up.” Your money is buying less. Average rent: 2016: CAD$761 2025: CAD$1,291 If rent simply tracked inflation, CAD$761 in 2016 would be about CAD$1,022 today. That extra gap is monetary debasement. The dollar lost purchasing power. This is why we Bitcoin. 🧡

Montreal Gazette

Montreal rent prices have jumped 70% in the last decade

Population growth, gentrification and a game of catch-up with other markets have sent rents skyrocketing across the city.

I gave the owner of Le Bon Vieux Temps this 2015 Venezuelan 100 bolívar note as a reminder of why Bitcoin matters. Today, the 100 bolívar note is worth about: $0.000002 USD Meanwhile, 100 sats are worth: $0.081 USD ⚡ 100 sats are now over 40,000× more valuable than the entire banknote. Hyperinflation vs scarcity. Fiat vs hard money.

"Strategic Bitcoin Reserves" aren’t built by governments. They’re built every day by small businesses choosing to accept Bitcoin. Our goal should be to help *them* move from survival to sovereignty.
