We’re living through the end of the fiat currency era—a grand central banking experiment that proved unsustainable. Free markets, Austrian economics, and hard money principles are the resolution to today’s chaos. The technology-driven world is fundamentally deflationary: innovation, automation, and robotics reduce costs and resources. Yet, our financial system is hooked on debt expansion and artificial inflation as its engine for survival—leading to crises in cost of living, housing affordability, pensions, demographics, endless conflict, and even environmental destruction. Why does consumerism demand ever-cheaper products and endless growth at all costs? It’s because fiat currency enables this spiral, chasing manufactured GDP “success” while eroding true value and social well-being. It’s time to embrace sound money, quality over quantity, production over speculation, and systems where capital reflects real output—not illusions. The future belongs to free markets, real innovation, and sustainable human prosperity.

The #Bitcoin market flashing signs of indecision today. With what looks like a doji. Price tried dumping earlier today, then it tried rallying and got rejected at the AVWAP from the ATH. I was asked a few days ago is this the top and my answer was. The next few days will be pivotal. The truth is I don’t know and I don’t really care. Even if this is the top, who cares we will get cheap sats in the near term. If we march higher great #Bitcoin does what it does best against fiat. Don’t worry about what’s out of your control. Just have a plan for every scenario. My plan is to accumulate more sats at whatever the fiat price is and don’t exchange it for fake fiat. But also happy to spend sats with other Bitcoiners in a circular economy. image

All you have to do is stack sats and wait…. Politicians and central bankers will continue to fuck things up. They always have and always will. It doesn’t matter where in the world you are. Trade your value for sats day to day, live below your means and accumulate aggressively whilst the wheels fall off the current financial system. When the dust settles #Bitcoin will emerge as the world reserve currency and money of choice for the people. It’s not difficult, just lower your time preference. Be disciplined and ignore short term volatility.

Personally I wouldn’t mind a bear market. Shake some weak hands out. Accumulate some more cheap #Bitcoin I’m in the for the long run. I don’t care about fiat gains. I only care about how many sats are in self custody old storage.

Gold ripping through $4,000/oz isn’t a surprise — it’s proof the system is breaking. Bloomberg’s finally whispering “monetary debasement” while pretending it’s a surprise. Gold is the alarm. Bitcoin is the exit. #Bitcoin #SoundMoney

One of the reasons I convert all my fiat into #Bitcoin is simple. I want my time and energy preserved for moments like this. Cruising through untouched powder then getting dropped back at the top via helicopter. Most people don’t realise they trade their time and energy for a currency — something that loses value the moment they earn it. It’s not money. It’s just a medium of exchange and a unit of account — it lacks the one thing that matters most: a store of value. I choose to trade my time for hard money instead. 1. Store of value 2. Medium of exchange 3. Unit of account It blows my mind that most of the world doesn’t know the difference between money, currency, and commodity. Gold = a commodity and money. Fiat = just a currency. Bitcoin = all three, combined. #heliski #heliboard #NewZealand #snowboarding #wealthpreservation #finance

The more you move away from traditional finance, the more you realise you don’t need it. For me personally #Bitcoin is all I need. Yes there are certain parts of my company which use fiat and credit facilities like company AMEX because it’s just easier. But it’s my preference to use Bitcoin where possible. In fact any business which needs a digital agency and wants to pay in #Bitcoin can enjoy a 25% discount off labour costs as an incentive to transition to using Bitcoin to exchange value peer to peer.

When the stock market and Bitcoin sells off from Trumps tweets, but Gold holds steady. You know the market still misunderstands Bitcoin. The lords of leverage get wiped out. Because they still think Bitcoin is a get rich quick scheme, when it’s not. The tweets were about tariffs. Bitcoin has nothing to do with tariffs. Bitcoin is digital gold, hard money, store of value, medium of exchange. Permission-less money. We are still really early. Use these dumps as an opportunity to accumulate more cheap sats. The US government along with every other western government are broke. They will turn to the money printer to try and mask the atrocities they and central banks have created. Just Bitcoin and chill. #Bitcoin #hardmoney #financialfreedom

I set up www.thebitcointransition.org to help people with no financial background understand money and why #Bitcoin is the ideal form of money. It will be an ongoing project that I’ll continue to work on. So the world can be a better place for everyone. The introductory courses will always be free, eliminating any barrier to entry. There are currently 35 short lessons, each less than 10 minutes in length. Whilst politicians fumble and destroy nations, consider watching some lessons so you can transition to living entirely on Bitcoin in a growing parallel economy. As we see division in politics today, the future will likely reveal division among people who have chosen to opt out and live on hard money versus those who have opted for infinite, falling fiat.

Bitcoin having a bit of a pullback. After absolutely ripping last week. Coming into a pretty decent level to exchange infinite paper currency for the hardest money the world has ever seen. #Bitcoin image
