I made a video about why I — as a music producer and mastering engineer — accept Bitcoin as payment. And what it actually means to me. Not a Bitcoin explainer. Personal. Philosophical. From someone who spent 30 years working with sound and physics. Video is in German. 🇨🇭 #Bitcoin #Music #Mastering #Nostr

If everyone were a Bitcoiner, the world would be a better place.

Bitcoin's correlation with technology stocks is particularly strong when focusing on software stocks. This is evident when comparing the Bitcoin price with BlackRock's "iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF" (ticker symbol IGV). Why is this? Why do so many people and Wall Street believe that Bitcoin is just another piece of software? image

Switzerland is like the Gaulish village surrounded by Roman legions. And yes, we have a magic potion: direct democracy. No capital gains tax on Bitcoin. No EU dictating our financial laws. No Lagarde telling us what money is allowed to be. Germany is now talking about abolishing the one-year holding period exemption for Bitcoin. More tax. More control. Meanwhile, Switzerland has the highest Bitcoin ownership per capita in the world. That's not a coincidence. That's what financial freedom looks like when people actually get to vote on it. image

I've been mastering audio for 30 years. Two years ago I started accepting Bitcoin. Most people think that's a weird combination. It's not. Mastering is about working with the physics of sound. Not against it. You don't fight the waveform. You understand it, and you work with what's there. Bitcoin is the same thing. It doesn't ask for permission. It works with math, not with trust in institutions. I spent 30 years learning to hear what others miss. Bitcoin taught me to see what others ignore. That's why it fits.
