MERRY CHRISTMAS from our family to yours.

Get ready for the great talent migration into the Bitcoin industry. We've seen a sharp increase in job posts for HR staff at Bitcoin companies this month. These companies are building out their internal HR operations in preparation for headcount growth in 2025. If you're a veteran who's interested in making the move, connect with OPERATION BITCOIN. We'll get you squared away.

Building the Bridge How Bitcoin Companies Can Tap Into the Veteran Talent Pipeline Let’s talk about the untapped potential of military veterans in the Bitcoin industry. Veterans, you’ve got the discipline, leadership, and mission-first mindset that companies in this space desperately need. And Bitcoin companies, you’re sitting in front of a tidal wave of talent that’s ready to take your mission to the next level. So, how do we connect the dots? Let’s break it down. Veterans: The Original Problem Solvers If you’ve served, you know what it’s like to operate in high-pressure environments, adapt to rapidly changing conditions, and execute with precision. Sound familiar, Bitcoiners? The decentralized, fast-paced, and often chaotic world of Bitcoin could use more of that energy. Veterans bring a unique skill set to the table: strategic thinking, operational excellence, and the ability to lead teams through uncertainty. These are the same qualities that can help Bitcoin companies scale, innovate, and stay resilient in a volatile market. But here’s the thing: many Bitcoin companies don’t know how to find you—or worse, they don’t know how to translate your military experience into the civilian workforce. That’s where we need to step in and build the bridge. Bitcoin Companies: Why Veterans Are Your Secret Weapon Bitcoin is about more than just technology; it’s about values—freedom, decentralization, and resilience. Veterans embody these values. They’ve spent their careers defending freedom and operating in decentralized, mission-driven environments. Hiring veterans isn’t just the right thing to do; it’s a strategic move that aligns perfectly with the ethos of Bitcoin. Here’s how you can start building a talent pipeline of veterans for your company: 1. Learn to Speak “Veteran” Military resumes can look like a foreign language if you’re not familiar with them. Take the time to understand how military skills translate into civilian roles. For example, a logistics officer in the military could be your next operations manager, and a cybersecurity specialist could be the perfect fit for your security team. 2. Partner with Veteran Organizations There are incredible organizations out there—like Hiring Our Heroes, FourBlock, Civilian Ready, and others—that specialize in connecting veterans with employers. Partner with them to tap into a network of highly skilled candidates. While these companies may not be involved in Bitcoin yet, we know it’s a matter of time until they join OPERATION BITCOIN in this space. 3. Show Up Where Veterans Are Veterans transitioning out of the military often use specific job boards and networks, like Military.com or RecruitMilitary. Post your job openings there. Better yet, attend veteran-focused career fairs and events to meet candidates face-to-face. 4. Create a Veteran Hiring Program Don’t just hire veterans—build a program that supports them. This could include mentorship opportunities, training to bridge skill gaps, and clear career development paths. Show veterans that you’re invested in their success. 5. Be a Veteran-Friendly Employer Veterans face unique challenges, from adjusting to civilian work culture to managing service-related disabilities. Offer flexible work policies, mental health resources, and accommodations to make the transition smoother. 6. Train Your Hiring Teams Your HR and hiring managers need to understand military culture and how to evaluate veteran candidates. A little education goes a long way in making your company more accessible to this talent pool. 7. Tell Your Story If you’re committed to hiring veterans, let the world know. Share your efforts on social media, highlight veteran employees in your company, and participate in veteran-focused initiatives. Build a brand that veterans want to be part of. Veterans + Bitcoin = A Winning Combination Veterans, you’ve already proven you can thrive in high-stakes environments. Bitcoin companies, you’re building the future of money and freedom. Together, you can create something incredible. But it starts with action—on both sides. Veterans, don’t be afraid to step into this space. Your skills are more relevant than you think. And Bitcoin companies, don’t overlook this talent pool. The values and skills veterans bring to the table could be the key to your next big breakthrough. Let’s build the bridge. Let’s make it happen. If you’re a veteran looking to break into the Bitcoin industry or a Bitcoin company ready to hire veterans, let’s connect. Drop a comment, share this post, or reach out directly. The future is decentralized—and veterans should be part of it. _____________________________________________________ OPERATION BITCOIN is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit on a mission to connect military veterans with Bitcoin.

GA VECTR: Georgia Veterans Education Career Transition Resource Center | About

Thank you to all of our supporters for you gifts, advocacy and resources.

We have turned a corner. Bitcoin companies are now contacting US to learn how to hire military Veterans for their open positions. Gradually, then suddenly. Veterans are on the mission.

Bitcoin is about people. And this community proves it every single day. With every financial gift we receive, we are reminded of the sacred duty entrusted to us to serve our fellow veterans. We do not take it lightly, and we are grateful for each of you who are on the mission with us.

Veterans and Bitcoin Ethos, purpose and renewed hope after disillusionment. The journey of military veterans transitioning to civilian life is often marked by challenges, especially for those who have experienced disillusionment with the agenda of the military they served. In such instances, the ethos of Bitcoin emerges as a beacon of hope, offering veterans a new sense of purpose, autonomy, and alignment with values that resonate with their core beliefs. For veterans who have served in a military whose agenda they do not agree with, the transition to civilian life can be accompanied by feelings of disappointment, conflict, and a search for a new sense of purpose. The values of loyalty, duty, and service that once guided their actions may be tested as they grapple with the realization that the mission they served did not align with their personal beliefs and principles. This internal conflict can lead to a sense of disconnect and a desire to find a new path that reflects their values and ideals. In this context, the ethos of Bitcoin offers a compelling alternative for veterans seeking to reclaim their sense of purpose and autonomy. The decentralized nature of Bitcoin, free from centralized control and censorship, resonates with veterans who value transparency, independence, and financial sovereignty. The ethos of Bitcoin, rooted in principles of innovation, decentralization, and challenging the status quo, provides a platform for veterans to engage in a mission that aligns with their values and beliefs. By getting involved in the Bitcoin ecosystem, veterans can harness their energy and channel their skills, discipline, and commitment to a cause that empowers individuals and challenges traditional financial systems. The ethos of Bitcoin, with its emphasis on integrity, dedication, and financial freedom, offers veterans a sense of agency and purpose as they navigate their post-military lives. Engaging in the Bitcoin mission allows veterans to contribute to a global movement that values transparency, innovation, and inclusivity, providing a sense of fulfillment and connection to a community that shares their ideals. Moreover, the ethos of Bitcoin serves as a platform for veterans to reassert their commitment to service in a different context. By participating in the decentralized Bitcoin space, veterans can leverage their experiences, values, and skills to make a positive impact and shape the future of digital currency. The mission-driven nature of Bitcoin resonates with veterans who seek to continue serving a greater cause and making a meaningful difference in the world. The intersection of military veterans and the ethos of Bitcoin offers a meaningful pathway for veterans to rediscover purpose and autonomy after experiencing disillusionment with the military agenda. By actively engaging in the Bitcoin community, veterans can reclaim their sense of agency, contribute to a movement that values transparency and financial sovereignty, and forge a new path that aligns with their core beliefs. Veterans are encouraged to explore opportunities within the Bitcoin ecosystem, connect with like-minded individuals, and leverage their unique skills to make a positive impact. This journey empowers veterans to navigate their post-military lives with renewed purpose, resilience, and a commitment to a cause that truly resonates with their values and ideals. Our mission at OPERATION BITCOIN is to guide veterans in the discovery of this new path. We serve military veterans by providing Bitcoin education and creating pathways to employment within the Bitcoin industry, helping them find renewed purpose and a new mission after military service. The alignment between veterans and the Bitcoin mission is clear. How can you support the mission? Tell a veteran you know about OPERATION BITCOIN today. There are nearly 18 million of us in the US and another 200,000 leaving the military every year. We are positioned for an explosion in the delivery of our education and career connection services as more Bitcoin companies recognize the tremendous value we bring to the table. The time for veterans to fully engage in this pivotal moment in our history is right now. Not tomorrow or next year. NOW. Each of us has something to offer - veteran or not. Get on the mission, spread the word and let’s make it happen.

For Bitcoiners, every day is election day. >Every day you choose to learn more about Bitcoin, you are casting a vote. >Every day you acquire more bitcoin, you are casting a vote. >Every day you transact in bitcoin, you are casting a vote. >Every day you meet another Bitcoiner, build a relationship and strengthen Layer Zero (the human layer of Bitcoin) you are casting a vote. >Every day you introduce someone new to Bitcoin and open the door to freedom, you are casting a vote. THIS is the beginning.

Leading from the front. Great conversation with @ODELL @preston https://fountain.fm/episode/QJpYg0044iM7rx9nQqGF
