“My husband and I were talking last night about how a 12 pack of drinks is $9 now and how in 2020 I used to buy them 4/$10.
I decided to go back into my Walmart app and see what I was paying for a random grocery order. In January 2020 l paid $70.20 for 30 items, I added all of them to the cart again and repurchased them today. Today those 30 items were $165.42.
That's a $95.22 price increase in four years time. That's a 135.6% inflation percentage.
We can't go on living like this. I can't be the only one who feels this way.”

MARK MOSS: “In the world, there’s about 60 million millionaires and there’s only 21 million Bitcoin. Do the math.”
Bitcoin is interdisciplinary blending subjects like economics, game theory, computer science etc., creating a decentralized system open to all-no account required, just dive in.
Anyone up for breakfast at Dick’s Place?
I’m glad I grew up in the ‘90s. I did so many stupid things and there’s no record of it anywhere.
“BITCOIN IS NOT CRYPTO!”
Imagine a small town overlooking the Pacific surrounded by thousands of acres of forest, where the seasons pass predictably, you know your neighbors, never have to lock your doors, source your food from local farmers and seldom hear a discoraging word.
I’d move there in a heartbeat.
Before bitcoin is computer code, before it’s money, before it’s an asset or an exchange traded fund, bitcoin is moral code.
Bitcoin is:
- You shall not censor
- You shall not inflate
- You shall not confiscate
- You shall not counterfeit
- You shall not steal
The reason that bitcoin is so resilient to nation states, to governments, to tyrants is because it uses unimaginably large numbers and cryptography that even the most powerful armies cannot crack. And this financial power is available to everyone.

Printing money at home is illegal-you'll face a Secret Service visit and prosecution. But if you want to create money from nothing legally just get a mortgage. Bank loans generate new dollars out of thin air using fractional reserve banking.
It’s just a perfek day today.
If you were guaranteed a pay cut every month, how would that make you feel? Well, you are getting a pay cut but it’s hidden. With the official rate of inflation at 2.7% (though inflation is probably higher) each monthly paycheck you receive has ~0.22% less purchasing power than the month before.
Study bitcoin.
Iif you buy and send a gift card to someone, they'll be taken through the process of creating a Fold account, gaining access to their bitcoin balance wallet, and exposed to all the other features for stacking sats. Once redeemed, those funds can be withdrawn to self-custody or stay in their bitcoin balance with Fold.
