We all say HODL — but do we really know how it began?
Back in 2013, Bitcoin plunged 38% in a single day. 📉
Frustrated (and a little drunk 🥃), a Bitcoiner named GameKyuubi posted:
“I AM HODLING.”
It was a typo — but it struck a chord.
Within hours, HODL became more than a misspelling — it became a mindset:
Don’t panic. Stay the course. Trust your conviction. ⚡
Over time, the community gave it meaning: “Hold On for Dear Life.”
Instead of chasing every pump or dip, HODLers focused on long-term belief in Bitcoin’s value.
And here’s the proof — today, nearly half of all Bitcoin hasn’t moved in over two years.
The conviction is real.
The diamond hands never left. 💎

Leaving your car keys with a valet in the car park is safer than leaving the private keys to your wallet outside your self-custody.
This is a short excerpt from my book "The Code of Freedom: Bitcoin and the Rebirth of Human Consciousness."
"Recognising access to value as a universal right is the natural continuation of the human journey — which, throughout history, has progressively expanded the circle of dignity to include those previously excluded from full autonomy."

The current president of Brazil, known as Lula, has publicly stated that drug traffickers are victims of drug users. It is this kind of narrative inversion that needs to be understood. That is why I said in my previous post that it is not news that drives Bitcoin—it is #Bitcoin that generates the stories reported in the news.


The Sanskrit language is practically the linguistic structure of yoga, in which the entire philosophical foundation of this ancient tradition was developed. Therefore, dedicating oneself to understanding Sanskrit or specific terminology within the practice of yoga is fundamental to recovering both essential concepts of practical experience and more comprehensive levels of understanding that involve metaphysics and spiritual development. I thought the presentation in this episode was fantastic.
Thank you.
Namaskar!

It is not the news that drives #Bitcoin, because Bitcoin is the catalyst for the story. It is Bitcoin that produces news and all geopolitical and economic movements. It is a perspective that is totally opposite to what the narrative says.
And even artificial intelligence would choose Bitcoin as a trading currency, what more could we expect?
The narrative is one of selling, and apparently the price of Bitcoin is not moving out of the range between US$107,000 and US$114,000. But remember that this is only a narrative. Many indicators show that the supply of Bitcoin in circulation or deposited on exchanges is falling. And you are not stupid. You know what that means.
While governments are just printing more money and Bitcoin reserves in circulation are falling... We are just preparing for the rise in prices. Or rather, we are just preparing to see the decline in the value of fiat money from nation states.
É interessante notar que essas teorias pois temos ouvido muitas visões a respeito dos ciclos do Bitcoin. Incluindo a possibilidade de terem se encerrados ciclos de quatro anos a partir do halvin. Se isso for real estaríamos então pautados em ciclos de liquidez de mercado e não em ciclos de quebra pela metade da mineração. Logo se estamos diante de uma nova onda de liquidez no mercado mundial podemos pensar que estamos no início de um bullrun para o Bitcoin.
Qual a sua opinião a respeito disso? Grato por mais um episódio.

It is inevitable that in the coming years the Bitcoin standard will merge into society and all currencies and exchange standards will move to satoshi parity. This was a significant episode

#Bitcoin is an #algorithmic code of numbers and letters created through mathematical rules in blocks of time and released into a non-physical space.
How does this resonate with you, knowing all the fragility of #governments and #nations?
Ifyou want to guarantee no kyc and fungibility longterm. then we cant rely on anyone else. needs to all be native.
💡 Bitcoin miners aren’t money printers - they’re puzzle solvers
Each machine races through billions of guesses per second, burning real energy.
The first to crack the puzzle earns Bitcoin + secures the network 💸
In 2025, here’s the lineup:
🔸 ASICs = laser-focused BTC machines
🔸 GPUs = flexible, but not built for Bitcoin’s race
🔸 Efficiency (<10 J/TH) is just as important as raw speed
But mining isn’t just about the rig. Electricity, cooling, and profit margins matter just as much.
For many, hosted hashpower is the smarter play 📈
Want the full breakdown of hashrates, costs, and which rigs actually work in 2025?

Why Institutions Are Entering Web3
Institutions are moving deeper into Web3 in 2025, with major banks, fintechs, and enterprises making long-term commitments. The shift is driven by clear business benefits:
▪️ Efficiency Gains: Faster cross-border settlement without costly intermediaries
▪️ DeFi Yield: Compliant lending and yield strategies tested by JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, and BlackRock
▪️ Tokenization: $25B tokenized asset market enabling liquidity and fractional ownership
▪️ Fintech Reach: Stablecoins and wallets powering global payments and improving retention
▪️ Competitive Edge: Programmable money and automation driving new business models
Examples are already live: JPMorgan processes $2B per day in blockchain payments, while PayPal, Revolut, and Stripe integrate crypto features for global users.
How far does your BTC go before it’s safe in a wallet? ✈️
Start Mining with my ref +5% HP: https://gomining.com/?ref=_sP3o
When you send BTC, it doesn’t just jump from one wallet to another - it goes through a journey before it’s confirmed on the blockchain.
👀 Here’s what happens:
🔸 Your wallet signs the transaction with a private key
🔸 It enters the mempool (the waiting zone)
🔸 Miners bundle it into a block with Proof-of-Work
🔸 Confirmations add the final layer of security
Think of it like this: your wallet is the check-in desk, the mempool is the security line, and miners are the pilots who finally take your BTC to its destination.
🚩 So next time you hit Send, remember - your BTC doesn’t teleport, it travels.
