IBIT is BlackRock’s most profitable ETF ever, and Uncle Larry Fink LOVES it. BlackRock makes more money when bitcoin pumps, and you’re bearish, anon?!? image

Bitcoin is the most obvious thing on the planet. Perfectly fixed supply, networked, digital money vs unlimited, permissioned, debt-based fiat garbage. How tf are you still on 0.0% allocation??

There is way more risk in being under-allocated to bitcoin than there is in being over-allocated.

You should be happy with every day that goes by where the US government doesn’t buy bitcoin.

It’s cute to think the Fed is independent. The reality is that they exist at the pleasure of the government and will always fall back to facilitating its whims.

Buying a rental property is an extremely risky, difficult, and highly leveraged way to make an extra $300 per month.

As public companies add bitcoin to their balance sheets, index funds gain exposure by default. That means passive capital flows into these stocks, fueling more bitcoin buys. It’s a feedback loop, and it’s happening in real time. This flywheel is already spinning. 📈 Index inclusion → passive flows 🪙 Passive flows → more BTC buys 🔁 More BTC buys → price appreciation I break it down in this week’s FIRE BTC newsletter. 🔗

💧 The era of passive bitcoin flows has begun. 401(k)s, ETFs, and corporate treasuries are piping bitcoin into portfolios. Millions will soon own BTC without lifting a finger — or even knowing it. This flywheel is unstoppable: Index buying → more BTC on balance sheets → bigger index weights → more inflows → repeat. Even the FIRE crowd stacking $VTI already owns bitcoin today, whether they like it or not.

A $9 TRILLION retirement system is about to collide with the hardest money on earth. When 401(k) plans can buy bitcoin, the flow will be automatic. The bid will be steady. And the effects could be massive. The Trump administration just cleared the way for employers to offer bitcoin in 401(k) plans. That means steady, automated contributions could start stacking sats every paycheck—whether the market’s up, down, or sideways. Why does this matter? 401(k)s are a core pillar of retirement planning. Tax advantages, employer matches, and high contribution limits make them powerful. Now, those same mechanics could start funneling billions into bitcoin. Quick 401(k) 101 ✅ Tax perks (Traditional or Roth) ✅ Employer match (free money!) ✅ Higher contribution limits ($23,500 in 2025) ✅ Creditor protection ⚠️ Locked until 59½, limited investment choices, and fees to watch out for. For people chasing FIRE, liquidity matters. I grab the match (always), optimize taxes if it makes sense, and keep the rest flexible—usually in spot bitcoin I control. Some 401(k)s offer a “brokerage window.” If yours does, you can buy bitcoin ETFs or bitcoin treasury companies (MSTR, etc.) It’s not cold storage, but it’s the next best thing. Now imagine bitcoin isn’t just a hidden option. It’s right there on the menu next to the S&P 500 fund and target date funds. Most people will “set it and forget it.” Contributions and company matches flow in—creating a constant, passive bid. And there will be other second-order effects... 🔸 HR teams & plan admins have to learn about Bitcoin. 🔸 Some get orange-pilled just doing their jobs. 🔸 Seeing BTC outperform sparks personal buys in IRAs, brokerages, cold storage. $9T sits in 401(k)s today with zero bitcoin exposure. Even a 1% shift over time = $90B in new automated demand. Week after week. Paycheck after paycheck. Bitcoin in your 401(k) is yet another channel of bitcoin adoption playing out in real time.
