PROMOTE LOCAL CIRCULAR ECONOMIES 🇨🇦
🔗 https://progressivebitcoiner.org/fix-the-money-heal-the-system
Support cooperatives and community enterprises that use Bitcoin for local trade and financing. This strengthens economic self-reliance, reduces reliance on intermediaries, and keeps wealth circulating within communities.

PILOT MUNICIPAL BITCOIN TREASURIES
🔗 https://progressivebitcoiner.org/fix-the-money-heal-the-system
Enable cities and towns to hold Bitcoin reserves as inflation hedges and funding mechanisms for green infrastructure, affordable housing, and community resilience projects, demonstrating fiscal innovation at the local level.
ESTABLISH A FEDERAL STRATEGIC BITCOIN RESERVE
🔗 https://progressivebitcoiner.org/fix-the-money-heal-the-system
The Government of Canada should accumulate and hold Bitcoin as part of its diversified treasury assets. This would hedge against global currency volatility, enhance fiscal stability, and assert Canada’s leadership in monetary innovation.
ADVANCE INDIGENOUS AND REGIONAL SOVEREIGNTY
🔗 https://progressivebitcoiner.org/fix-the-money-heal-the-system
“Empower Indigenous, rural and remote communities to deploy Bitcoin-powered microgrids and renewable energy projects, monetizing local resources and strengthening self-governance. This aligns the energy transition with reconciliation and community independence.”
SUPPORT UNION AND PENSION FUND DIVERSIFICATION
🔗 https://progressivebitcoiner.org/fix-the-money-heal-the-system/
“Modernize pension legislation in Canada to allow responsible Bitcoin exposure under ethical and sustainability standards. This would protect intergenerational equity, ensure worker savings retain real value, and align Canada’s public and private retirement systems with long-term resilience.”

Quantum Computing and Bitcoin: Separating Real Risk from Manufactured Panic
“By the time quantum computers reach the strength needed to challenge Bitcoin’s existing security, Bitcoin will already have moved forward—just as it has always done.” #Bitcoin #BTC
PROTECT CIVIL LIBERTIES IN DIGITAL FINANCE — Guarantee the right of Canadians to transact peer-to-peer without surveillance or discrimination. Embedding financial privacy in law would protect democracy itself and bolster freedom from oppression in an era of increasing digital control. 🇨🇦
https://progressivebitcoiner.org/fix-the-money-heal-the-system
🇨🇦 COMMIT TO DEMINIMIS TAX EXEMPTION FOR BITCOIN TRANSACTIONS — Amend the Income Tax Act to exempt everyday Bitcoin payments under a reasonable threshold, such as $10,000, from capital-gains tax. This would normalize digital commerce, empower small businesses, unleash pent up capital into our economy, and simplify compliance while stimulating innovation across the economy. It would also enable not-for-profit and charitable organizations across Canada to benefit more fully from the many use cases of #Bitcoin as a tool for individual, family and community empowerment.
https://progressivebitcoiner.org/fix-the-money-heal-the-system
BUILD CLIMATE-RESILIENT INFRASTRUCTURE BASED ON BITCOIN — Recognize Bitcoin mining as a flexible grid stabilizer that monetizes renewable surplus, captures waste methane, and supports the decarbonization of Canada’s energy systems. Through tax credits and green incentives, #Bitcoin can help transform environmental liabilities into assets. In so doing, it can also help us build the digital infrastructure and data sovereignty we need for the digital age of today and tomorrow.
https://progressivebitcoiner.org/fix-the-money-heal-the-system
CREATE A NATIONAL SOUND-MONEY AND INCLUSION STRATEGY — Develop a coordinated federal plan to promote financial literacy, open-source #Bitcoin education, and equitable access to digital financial tools. This would include a National Dialogue on Monetary Ethics to reimagine money as a public good and reconnect Canadians with the moral foundations of fairness and accountability.

It’s time for a mission reminder!

“Often described as both the discovery of digital scarcity and the realization of the separation of money and state, Bitcoin also represents something deeper—what philosophers Andrew M. Bailey, Bradley Rettler, and Craig Warmke call resistance money.”

From the X-verse. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if Satoshi hadn’t died or simply moved on from Bitcoin to other pursuits in that vein, but instead simply transitioned to a peaceful life of mindfulness and enjoyment of the beauties of life on Earth. What do you think nostr:nprofile1qqsy8czfwysh2lpzple0h0frrw8d2hpxkf7ernd0397ndlkfs5gnndgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43z7qgewaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8xmn0wf6zuum0vd5kzmp0nywwa9?


“Bitcoin is the meeting point where social democracy, environmental justice, and fiscal responsibility align. It gives progressives a common language of renewal — one grounded not in ideology, but in practical compassion, moral coherence, and an ethic of greater global cooperation.”

Fix the Money, Heal the System argues that Canada’s social, economic, political, and environmental challenges share a common root: our broken “fiat” currency and a monetary system that rewards debt, speculation, and extraction. The paper explores Bitcoin—a powerful, global monetary alternative—through a progressive and policy-focused lens. It shows how this fairer, decentralized, and transparent form of money drives inclusion, empowers workers, strengthens human rights, and supports environmental sustainability. It contends that lasting social progress must begin with monetary reform.
When money loses value through inflation and political manipulation, it leads to erosion of trust, fairness, and long-term planning. By contrast, Bitcoin offers a framework and a tool for rebuilding these foundations—linking economic value to real work, energy, and community rather than to privilege and power.
Drawing on real-world examples from Canada and around the world, the paper highlights how Bitcoin is already be used to build a better world. In doing so, it presents Bitcoin not as a speculative asset, but as a public good—and a powerful new tool for building more democratic, sustainable, and inclusive societies; one that should be confidently embraced by all progressive political parties and organizations in Canada.

Posting this again as we need to get this recent article by nostr:nprofile1qqspxw8hwq2356rcjcwe5vt3rmlpsdveq49ptkfncfu8vgu7sznlqxcpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qg6waehxw309ahx7um5wghx7unpdenk2urfd3kzuer9wc0n8vk7 into wider circulation. It has the potential to open many more eyes to the importance of sound money and Bitcoin in particular. Please share it with your networks.

I hear the parties are going to be dope though, and goth inspired.


I see a lot of people posting about the “current Bitcoin bull run” and that the “bull run of this cycle is over”. IMHO, we haven’t even seen a bull run recently. The past 1.5 years has simply been a slow upward correction to make up for the impact of exchange and company explosions in 2021/2022 (FTX, Celcius et al).
This has been a healing period for Bitcoin, like physiotherapy before getting back on the playing field. At USD ~$100K to $130K the injury is healed, but the body isn’t quite game ready.
The so-called bull run begins once the exchange rate of BTC climbs above ~$130,000 USD. We’re getting there. The bull is sharpening its horns. Patience.
I believe that past cycle models and prognostications will ultimately prove ephemeral.
