@Adam Back joined Yahoo Finance’s Market Catalysts this morning to break down:
🔹 Why Bitcoin’s 2025 price action looks “lackluster” on the surface
🔹 Why Bitcoin treasury companies are becoming a compelling investment theme
🔹 How today’s landscape compares to when he first got involved in 2013
A great overview of where Bitcoin stands heading into 2026.
In the 1990s, governments tried to ban strong encryption.
Cypherpunks printed RSA code on t-shirts to prove a point: you can't stop math.
Three decades later, Bitcoin proves they were right: you can't stop math. You can't ban freedom.
When @Adam Back printed the original RSA code t-shirt in 1995, he showed that mathematical truth can't be banned.
Today's limited edition version carries that spirit forward.
Wear the code that challenged authority just by existing.
