I spoke to André Dragosch, PhD yesterday for the Relai podcast, and the topic of Bitwise Europe charts came up. Checked my X timeline today and found this comparison. A beauty to see! 🚀

Never deleting social media 😂😂😂

The Strategy Bitcoin playbook has many facets. My latest guest, Alex Eser, is a MSTR shareholder and gave a unique insight into what's going on. Here's the full conversation:

“EU officials are accelerating plans for a digital euro, according to people involved in the discussions, after a new US stablecoin law deepened worries about the competitiveness of a European digital currency.”

It’s not much, but it’s honest work. 😎

Bitcoin has changed the landscape of finance. 💪 But is its core spirit still alive, or have we also seen a change in perception? I ranted about this question in my latest blog post. Available tomorrow from 10:45 am CEST.

The Bitcoin Perception Change

Bitcoin is changing and is not the same anymore as Satoshi may have envisioned it back in 2009. Here’s my latest rant about the matter.

The day I always feared has come! Arsen Thagapsov asked me to record TikToks for @Relai 🇨🇭. Godspeed.

Bitcoin is fixing Democracy on the Internet 🚀 The Internet has been captured and slowly turned into a monopoly playhouse for Big Tech. The only way out of this is by embracing the peer-to-peer foundation it was once built on, and what better native currency is there for it than BTC with all its glory. I went on a little side quest in my latest blog to answer the question of why all of this happened and how Bitcoin can be a guiding hand going forward! Here's the link to the blog:

Dear Boomers, it’s not hard to understand Bitcoin. It’s the best protection against devaluation, makes you fully independent (please hold it in self-custody), and is the only truly scarce good in the digital realm. What are you waiting for?! 🍊

Balaji was on fire in this one 🔥

Today marks the first interview in my Substack Interview series, where I get to speak to engaging and thought-provoking people in Bitcoin, AI, and Tech. Today, I had the pleasure of speaking with Mark Connors and diving deep into the financing of Bitcoin, why Wall Street loves the spot Bitcoin ETFs, and what we can expect from the suits in the future.

The White House has ignored Bitcoin in its report, while Ray Dalio recommends it. Rumours are circulating again that the four-year cycle is dead - that and much more in this week's news. 💪

It's not a proper Bitcoin bull run unless publicly traded miners are lagging behind. However, this time around, things look a bit different. 👀

It’s as simple as that. 😎 Bitcoin in self-custody is the ultimate hedge. You can dabble with ETFs and other instruments but should always hold the underlying asset!

Oh wow. Not the best look if one of the top writers gets away with plagiarism… 😳

Boy, that escalated quickly 👀

Am I now one of the cool kids? 🤨
