Over the weekend, Bitcoin settled ~$33 billion, facilitated ~600k transactions, & issued 2,037 new BTC at a steady & predictable ~1.8% inflation rate. ~1 million new addresses were generated & miners earned $43 m producing 326 blocks. Banks were closed. The Fed was not needed. - @yassineARK

Let's hope that folks start realizing that the money in their bank accounts is an IOU. #Bitcoin in one's custody is a bearer asset, this means it's unconfiscatable i.e. your property.

Unlike retail holders of $SVB, I hold my #Bitcoin private keys. The day I don't, I will have no one else to blame but myself. There will be no talk of Government bailing out my sorry ass. That's the price I'm willing to pay to have a stress free weekend.
