“THE BITCOIN STRATEGIC RESERVE IS NOT FOR TRADING. IT'S A HONEY POT—BTC GOES IN, NEVER COMES OUT. EVERY COIN LOCKED AWAY TIGHTENS SUPPLY, MAKING THE REMAINING BTC EVEN MORE SCARCE. WHALES KNOW IT. NATION-STATES WILL LEARN IT. THE FINAL SUPPLY SHOCK IS COMING.” - Michael Saylor on X. Study #Bitcoin. ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Building a financial market with real estate as the foundation is the stupidest thing ever. This foundation is garbage. More of it can be created. The whole financial system is shaky because houses are not a strong foundation to build on. We need houses to live. Using housing as the foundation of finance means the value of housing keeps going up and it becomes more difficult for us to pay for the basics of life. The foundation is subjectively valued. The price of a house in a neighborhood could change based on multiple factors, including the opinions of the person valuing it. Governments can rug-pull the housing market overnight by raising property taxes. The housing market survives at the mercy of the government. Governments want houses to go up in price because they make more in terms of property taxes. Once they don't need property taxes anymore to survive, they will change their approach to growing their city and attracting immigrants. The financial system's foundation will be Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the most stable foundation to exist in finance. No matter what, 1 BTC = 1 BTC. Nothing else is as fungible, divisible, portable, scarce, immutable, censorship-resistant, durable, and verifiable. Nothing else can replace Bitcoin. Once banks and governments figure this out, they're going to change how they interact with Bitcoin. They will embrace it rather than trying to get rid of it. They will need to, to survive. - Rajat Soni on X ⚡️⚡️⚡️
"WHY BUY BITCOIN?" Do you think things are getting more expensive lately? People say it's inflation. They use it as a catch all term without really understanding it. But in reality, it's monetary debasement. Things are getting more expensive because the federal reserve has to print money to reduce the impact of recessions. This causes each dollar to become worth less and less. This means you need more dollars to buy the same good or service. So you lose if you hold cash. To protect your purchasing power, you need to invest in stocks or real estate just to breakeven. You're not truly building too much wealth. You're breaking even and you're simply keeping up with the money printer. You need a harder asset that can hold its purchasing power over the long run. That's what Bitcoin is. It's the hardest asset the world has ever seen and it does a phenomenal job of maintaining and growing your purchasing power in the long run. ⚡️⚡️⚡️
If you focus on the price of #Bitcoin you will continue to suffer. If you focus on the knowledge of #Bitcoin , you will continue to grow. Stack Sats. Study #Bitcoin. ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Why #Bitcoin is the Ultimate Ego Test: Bitcoin doesn’t care about you. It doesn’t care about your credentials, your opinions, or your self-image. It doesn’t adjust its rules to soothe your insecurities or reward your arrogance. It simply exists, indifferent to the emotional baggage anyone brings to it. This is why engaging with Bitcoin becomes a profound test of ego, one most people fail before they ever understand the stakes. When I first encountered Bitcoin, I assumed it was a puzzle I could solve quickly. I had expertise in technology, a grasp of economics, and a confidence that my intellect could master any system. Bitcoin dismantled that illusion. The deeper I went, the more I realized how little I knew. The protocol’s elegance wasn’t just in its code but in its ability to expose gaps in my thinking. Concepts like time preference, decentralized consensus, and absolute scarcity forced me to confront how much I’d underestimated the interplay of human behavior and game theory. Bitcoin doesn’t bend to your worldview; you bend to it, or you walk away. The ego hates this. It resists the idea that something so simple could be so unyielding. We’re conditioned to believe complexity equals sophistication, so Bitcoin’s minimalist design feels almost offensive. Why wouldn’t it need our improvements? Why shouldn’t we tweak its block size, add features, or make it “greener”? Here, Bitcoin’s lesson is brutal: your brilliance is irrelevant. The system’s resilience comes from what it excludes, human meddling. Proposing changes to Bitcoin isn’t a display of intelligence; it’s a test of whether you grasp why those limits exist in the first place. Then there’s the market. Price swings taunt the ego, tempting you to believe you can outsmart the crowd. You’ll convince yourself you’ve timed the top, only to watch it climb higher. You’ll panic-sell during a crash, certain you’ve outwitted the “irrational” masses, then seethe as it rebounds. Bitcoin’s volatility isn’t a bug, it’s a filter. It separates those who need to feel like winners from those who understand winning is often just sitting still. The market reflects collective human emotion, and your ability to resist reacting to it reveals how much control your ego truly has. What’s left when you strip away the need to be right, to be in control, to be validated? Bitcoin forces that question. It asks you to submit to a truth larger than your individual perspective: no one owns it, no one dictates its rules, and no one is spared its demands. The longer you hold it, the more it teaches you about patience, humility, and the cost of clinging to narratives that flatter your self-importance. In the end, Bitcoin isn’t just a currency or a technology. It’s a mirror. It shows you who you are when faced with something you cannot manipulate, cannot fully comprehend, and cannot conquer. The question is whether you’ll look away, or let it transform you. - FiatHawk on X.
