image We’re already 1/3 of the way through this halving cycle, we’re over 70,000 blocks in. Bitcoin’s monetary policy isn’t controlled by a central bank, it’s written in code! Every 210,000 blocks, the new supply of bitcoin drops in half. The block reward has been 3.125 bitcoin and after block 1,050,000 the block reward will be 1.5625

In moments of instability, what you own matters, but what you can access is everything! Gold has a high value to weight ratio and it is extremely difficult to transport. Even smaller amounts of gold are inconvenient. Imagine trying to send a few thousand dollars’ worth of gold to a family member overseas. It’s not happening. Now imagine two people fleeing a country in crisis: - One is carrying a backpack filled with gold, they will face questioning at every border. Confiscation is a real risk and so is theft. Even if they make it through, they’ll struggle to convert that gold into usable funds without trusted intermediaries, paperwork, and time. - The other memorized 12 words … Bitcoin is more scarce than gold and adds the portability of the internet. Bitcoin moves as fast as an email, it crosses borders without friction and without permission. In a crisis, portability becomes everything!

image The Fed will most likely cut rates on Wednesday. That means borrowing gets cheaper, more dollars flood the system and historically, assets go up. But it also means something else: There will be more currency debasement and less purchasing power for anyone holding cash That’s why capital rotates into scarce, hard assets! Bitcoin can’t be inflated Bitcoin is sound money ⚡

image Gold went up to $3,650 an ounce, inching toward all-time highs The fact that gold is climbing says a lot about where things are headed. Jobless claims climbed to their highest level in four years, markets are pricing in a 25bps rate cut and geopolitical tension is adding to the flight to safety. The market is preparing for looser monetary policy and growing economic uncertainty. That’s the exact kind of environment where hard assets thrive. As capital searches for safety, liquidity, and freedom, they will find bitcoin. Bitcoin doesn’t just store value, it challenges the very system that makes stores of value necessary!

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics just released its annual benchmark revisions, and the results are staggering: 911,000 fewer jobs than initially reported for the year leading up to March 2025. That’s the largest downward adjustment since records began in 2002. Job growth slower than thought: Monthly job creation averaged 76,000 fewer than initial reports.

image UBI vs Bitcoin: A tale of two visions Universal Basic Income (UBI) and Bitcoin are both responses to the same problem: A broken economic system Increasing inequality A future where automation threatens jobs and the cost of living keeps climbing But they offer very different solutions, let’s break it down: UBI says: “Let’s fix the problem by giving everyone money.” Sounds fair and humane, and in a world where wages are stagnant and the cost of living rising, it’s easy to understand the appeal. But UBI still depends on a central government deciding how much you get, endless money printing to fund it, the assumption that inflation won’t eat it faster than it’s given, political cycles, tax changes and budget deficits. In short, it gives you fish, but the lake is leaking. Bitcoin says: “Let’s fix the money so people don’t need constant handouts.” It doesn’t promise income, it promises a foundation where your savings don’t lose value every year, you don’t need permission to participate, wealth isn’t siphoned off by inflation, fees, or hidden taxes and the rules are fixed, transparent, and incorruptible. Bitcoin doesn’t give you free money, it gives you fair money! UBI treats the symptom, Bitcoin fixes the cause. UBI might be necessary because fiat is broken but UBI will likely make that problem worse by increasing the money supply even more, which inflates prices, which makes the UBI less effective, which requires even more money… Bitcoin breaks that loop. So maybe the question isn’t “UBI or Bitcoin?” Maybe it’s: Do you want more broken money in your pocket or a system that doesn’t break you to begin with?

image Can governments stop Bitcoin? The short answer? No! Every few months, someone trots out the same old line: “What if the government bans Bitcoin?” As if that’s checkmate But Bitcoin isn’t a company, it’s not an app, it’s not a product with a CEO or a headquarters or a single point of failure! Bitcoin is a decentralized protocol that runs on tens of thousands of nodes across nearly every country. With no central authority to coerce, subpoena, or shut down. So, can governments try to stop it? Sure But can they succeed? That’s a different story. They can’t shut it down technically Bitcoin is code, it’s math and it is a global network powered by anyone with a device and an internet connection. You can’t ban that! You can make it inconvenient and make it illegal for your citizens, but you can’t make it disappear. China banned Bitcoin a dozen times Guess what? Chinese miners still mine and Chinese citizens still use it. Governments can regulate on-ramps, but not the protocol They can KYC users, restrict withdrawals, tighten AML laws. But once bitcoin is off the exchange and in self-custody, it’s sovereign They can’t reverse peer-to-peer transactions or stop you from memorizing 12 words. Anyone, anywhere, can still run a node, still hold their keys and still opt out. Bitcoin’s resilience isn’t just technical, it’s philosophical. It empowers individuals over institutions. And institutions don’t like that, but they can’t stop it. But eventually, they’ll do what all governments do when faced with unstoppable tech: They’ll adapt or get left behind!

image Canada's job market just hit a wall. 66,000 jobs disappeared in August alone. Here's what Statistics Canada's latest report reveals: - Second consecutive month of employment decline - Unemployment jumped to 7.1% the highest since 2016 (outside the pandemic) - Professional services got hammered, losing 26,000 positions - Of those who lost jobs in July, only 15.2% found new work by August The broader picture is even more concerning: Ontario, BC, and Alberta are leading the losses. Youth unemployment sits at a staggering 14.5%. Students faced their worst summer job market since 2009. Nearly 1 in 10 Canadians want more work but can't get them. A third of people working multiple jobs say they're just trying to cover basic needs. This isn't a blip, it's a trend. And when your government's economic policies consistently weaken your purchasing power while jobs disappear, you need a Plan B. Smart Canadians are already building their defense: Saving in Bitcoin, an asset that can't be printed away by the Bank of Canada or devalued by failed fiscal policy. Don't let Ottawa's weakness become your poverty.

image ETF buyers: You bought the idea, not the asset You now have exposure to bitcoin… But you don’t actually own any! You bought the idea of the asset wrapped in paperwork, managed by institutions, and settled somewhere else on your behalf Let’s be clear: There’s a massive difference between holding bitcoin and holding a promise that someone else is holding it for you. You can’t move it, you can’t spend it, you can’t self-custody it and you can’t take it across borders, store it on a hardware wallet, or use it in a peer-to-peer transaction. The very reason Bitcoin exists is to remove middlemen, to eliminate counterparty risk and to let you be in control of your value! Bitcoin is about sovereignty ETFs are about convenience This isn’t to dunk on ETF buyers, exposure is a step forward and it gets Bitcoin into portfolios that couldn’t access it before. But let’s not confuse that with ownership! You can’t withdraw your ETF to cold storage, you can’t send it to a friend in another country and you can’t escape a banking freeze with it! You’re still playing inside the same old game with a new ticker symbol. Owning bitcoin means holding your money, on your terms! Study bitcoin. Not your keys, not your coins!

How Bitcoin embodies the core principles of classical liberalism as outlined in Ludwig von Mises' "Liberalism" (1927). The parallels are striking and show how Satoshi may have created the most Austrian money ever conceived. Mises argued that true liberalism rests on private property rights as the foundation of civilization. Bitcoin takes this further - it's the first form of money that is truly, mathematically private property. No government can print more, seize it easily, or devalue it through inflation. "The program of liberalism is: property, freedom, peace" - Mises. Bitcoin delivers on all three: absolute property rights through cryptography, freedom from monetary authorities, and peace through removing the state's ability to fund wars via money printing. Mises emphasized that sound money is essential for economic calculation and rational decision-making. Bitcoin's fixed supply of 21 million coins creates the ultimate sound money - immune to political manipulation and central bank interference. On government intervention, Mises warned that each intervention creates problems requiring more interventions. Bitcoin sidesteps this entirely by being permissionless and decentralized - no central authority exists to "intervene" in the first place. Mises believed that free markets naturally tend toward peace because trade creates mutual benefit. Bitcoin creates a global, borderless market for value transfer that operates 24/7 regardless of political tensions or trade wars. "Liberalism is rationalist" - Mises valued logical consistency over emotion. Bitcoin's protocol is pure rationality encoded in math - it doesn't care about politics, emotions, or special interests. It simply executes the rules as programmed. Mises argued that capitalism and private ownership lead to the most efficient allocation of resources. Bitcoin's proof-of-work mining creates the most efficient network security system, where resources naturally flow to the most productive miners. On individual liberty: Mises saw economic freedom as inseparable from personal freedom. Bitcoin gives individuals complete control over their wealth - no bank holidays, capital controls, or frozen accounts. Your keys, your coins, your freedom. Mises warned against the dangers of socialism and central planning. Bitcoin is the antithesis of central planning - it's a spontaneous order emerging from millions of individual decisions, creating a robust, self-organizing system. "The gold standard is the only honest money" - Mises understood that hard money prevents government overreach. Bitcoin improves on gold by being perfectly scarce, instantly transferable globally, and impossible to confiscate through force. Mises concluded that liberalism offers the only path to human prosperity and peace. Nearly a century later, Bitcoin provides the monetary foundation for his vision - a tool for individual sovereignty that no state can control or corrupt. image

Allen Farrington's "Bitcoin is Venice" draws fascinating parallels between Bitcoin and Venice's escape from feudalism through sound money. Venice emerged from the dark ages because the gold florin enabled true capital formation while the rest of Europe was trapped in debased currency feudalism. Today we face "neo-feudalism", asset owners vs debt slaves enabled by fiat. Bitcoin offers the same escape route. Those who opt into sound money will accumulate capital at disproportionate rates vs those trapped in debt-based systems, creating the foundation for superior institutions. Venice's banking was eerily similar to Bitcoin, public ledger transfers, hard reserves, apolitical money for trade with anyone. The parallels are uncanny. The renaissance begins with sound money. Again. 🧡 This is exactly why we built our platform, to help people escape the fiat feudalism trap through self-custody Bitcoin. We enable independence. image
