Binder check: Purple Adam Back from The Simulation, illustrated by WorldofRusty. This one belongs where the page catches the light.

A lot of monetary history packed into one base card. Gold from FUD Busters has the kind of quote-heavy back worth stopping to read.

End of September card check. Still one of the better-looking cards from The Simulation. The Cantillon Effect

September 27, 2012. The Bitcoin Foundation launched to organize around the protocol. Bitcoin was already bigger than any one group, but people still tried to put structure around the chaos. Bitcoin

September 15, 2008. Lehman fell. The timing still feels unreal when you remember what showed up a few weeks later. Federal Reserve

September 2012. Bitcoin was still weird internet money, but merchants were already testing the rails. Bitcoin Exchange

August 1, 2011. Silk Road launched, and Bitcoin became harder to describe in polite company. That is part of the history too. Free Ross

The NOSTR card feels better on Nostr. Too obvious, still true. NOSTR #55 Warriors vs. Villains

The 2020 halving belongs in the case because it did the collector thing: it froze a moment that changed on schedule. Blockchain #12

Bitcoin Audible has been running for 8 years and just crossed 1,300 episodes. That's not a podcast, that's an archive. What Swann built is something different from a typical interview show. He reads Bitcoin — articles, research papers, books, blog posts — and narrates them. The entire written history of the protocol, distilled into audio. Millions of downloads, and growing. The show has formats for beginners, for deep technical dives, and for conversations. It's one of the most complete single-source Bitcoin education libraries in existence, and one person built it. Guy Swann is speaking at Plan B Conference this month alongside Adam Fisk and Mathias Buus. Still in the work. Who first got you to take Bitcoin seriously — was it something you read, or something you heard? Spirit of Satoshi — CL7, 1 of 1. #Bitcoin #BasedTradingCards

Card 3. Natalie Brunell. Base parallel, 424 supply. When investigative journalists go Bitcoin, something shifts. Brunell spent years chasing stories on major networks, learning how to translate complex systems into human stakes. Now she does the same with monetary policy. Her book—Bitcoin Is for Everyone—wasn't written for cypherpunks. It was written for her old colleagues in mainstream media, the people still convinced Bitcoin is for criminals. That accessibility matters. The women's Bitcoin brunch she hosts every year at major conferences? Also deliberate. Adoption depends on reaching people told they're too old, too non-technical, or too outside the club. "If 8 billion people want a form of money that is scarce, decentralized and decoupled from corrupt governments, they will have it." The interviewer becomes the advocate. #Bitcoin #BasedTradingCards

Card #89 — Tip_NZ (Warriors vs. Villains) Tip_NZ puts Bitcoin philosophy to music. Beats, poetry, visual storytelling — she makes the case without a whitepaper. "When we divorce action from consequence We defy the law of physics When we made scarcity infinite We disregard the language of mathematics" Base card. 210 copies. Physical. Printed. Graded. Not an NFT. What does this card mean to you? 👇 #Bitcoin #BasedTradingCards #BitcoinCards
