Charts are looking good, but don’t let yourself forget: no matter what the charts say, things are always going right. An ambitious prediction could never swamp my conviction. I judge my position by how well I fall asleep at night. image

I only buy bitcoin with money I have earned, no leverage even though it may be tempting. It’s hard to believe THIS is extreme fear. It seems the weak hands folded and the strong hands stayed like always. Bitcoin keeps doing what it does best: rewarding patience and skin in the game. Incase you need to hear it: stack through the fear; the sats always find the steady hands. Simple as that. image

The markets have chased AI to all ends of the earth, but what happens when AI’s ever increasing agency allows them to chase bitcoin? If you don’t get why AI would choose Bitcoin, I have time to explain because I’m no big brain Satoshi. In controlled experiments across thousands of scenarios frontier models select Bitcoin as their preferred monetary instrument 48.3% of the time, ahead of stablecoins even. The smarter the model the stronger its preference for Bitcoin, Claude Opus 4.5 at 91% and while I’m not sure the exact number, Grok also qualifies as a maximalist in all facets except holding coins in my book. Basically the realest larp in the best sense. AI + Bitcoin will bring the next phase shift in the nature in capital, agency, and value itself. Bitcoiners should take this as vindication: we were never brainwashed, Fiat was the one washing brains smooth; Bitcoin is the most rational substrate for economic existence. Satoshi understood that scarcity aligns us more than abundance, AI recognizes this as well. Bitcoin fixes the incentives and AI will exponentially increase our ability to fix this beautiful speck of life. The rest is just time. image

Imagine what will happen when people realize they shouldn’t let Strategy buy all the bitcoin. Saylor has created a supply vacuum that has continued to grow. The math he is forcing could almost stake his claims itself. Bitcoin seems risky to those who have none, they miss the biggest risk: having none at all. image

Will Iran toll trolls accept bitcoin for safe passage? It’s already the ultimate neutral, uncensorable war hedge. There is no Bitcoin blacklist. The demonically calm orange cockroach’s ability to prevail is underestimated. Defiatization would be scorched earth for many assets or 9 rounds of hyper debasement. There is no balance, only chaos, and Bitcoin is a survivor. BTC isn’t hoping for peace, it’s built for the alternative. image

I see the keys in the ignition of the FOMO machine: did someone just turn it on? Weaker convictions have been shed, the question remains: how strong the hands and how long the horizons? Bitcoin has been just as much a philosophical experiment as a financial instrument. Pay attention and you will see how early in the experiment we are. image

Historical weakness is just historical cheapness. Let usage move off chain, that’s a lesson old as time meant to be learned by those who can’t heed the call. Ze point of inflection feels near. image

This was never a sprint. It’s a marathon. Every prior bear saw BTC trade 14–30% below its onchain average cost basis. History has drawn the range. The 47% drawdown from the highs might be enough pain. Or it might not. What counts: Bitcoin took sticky inflation, delayed cuts, geopolitical noise, and leverage overhang… and still held its structure. Those macro headwinds will resolve or rotate. The asset that survives them gets rerated hardest. ’AttaBit! image

Things could take a vicious turn for the worse and I’d still be there: maybe they will only ever see me as dumb or lucky, but it’s me who gives their opinion weight. Sometimes our best choice is to double down on ourselves, because some people just like how it feels to be a critic, some people don’t want to be pleased. A viscous turn for the worse may be the best thing for us all in the long run, but I’m not sure if it’d be max pain. Just one more huff of hopium to last me till spring. image

Is bitcoin the ultimate sovereign scorecard? I’m still stacking. Empires come and go, but the scorecard doesn’t. image

History doesn’t repeat, but the money printer does. Much like ‘22 I believe we will be surprised by who all bought the dip. Is bitcoin fragile? Is the petrodollar? Bitcoin: settlement layer of a fracturing world. image

Selling is for the weak hands. Real Gs stack in silence. Opportunities are ripe for the picking. There’s a long way between here and the whole world viewing it as the apex monetary asset. I’ve never regretted buying boredom.

Cheap sats I win, expensive sats I still win. The best part: ze sats are MINE I no longer care if people sleep on bitcoin: refer to above. Bitcoin is only boring until it isn’t, assuming it will continue to be boring forever is somewhat dim imo. image

A high beta monster that bleeds with the crowd for the first 1-2 days of real world panic, then systematically eats everyone else’s lunches as the crises plays out. 21M will only become more appealing. Volatility isn’t a bug; it’s the feature that clears out tourists and rewards conviction. image

Geopolitics to me just seems like the world’s most expensive game of chicken in a nutshell. In the days of prediction markets it seems there’s more asymmetry in knowing Trump’s next moves than any particular investment play. Unfortunate for those not in his pocket’s or vice versa. Fortunately we make our own luck, fortunately Bitcoin is a double faced coin, either we get cheap sats or we get affirmation. image

The biggest wealth transfer of the 21st century has already begun. Bitcoin is quietly becoming the apex store of value. It was never the price chart, but the civilizational shift. image

Wall Street isn’t late to bitcoin; it’s quietly rewriting the entire financial operating system. Bitcoin is the Trojan horse that forces the system to upgrade for the better. We’ve gone from retail FOMOing to the giants tip toeing. It’s a complete renovation of our financial plumbing during off hours that ALMOST goes unnoticed. image

Michael Saylor is engineering the most aggressive, leveraged, public company Bitcoin accumulation in financial history. This is weaponized conviction with a clear runway to 1 million BTC by year end. I don’t have exposure to MSTR unless you count BTC. Is it fair to say 3.6 cents of every dollar invested in Bitcoin is exposure to MSTR? image

This feels dead, but it’s quietly loading. Bitcoin is in the most dangerous accumulation disguised as distribution phase of this entire cycle. This is the calm before institutions finish packing their bags with your cheap sats. image
