We don’t need more houses.
We need to stop encouraging houses to be used as financial assets.
The money is broken.
Fix the money, fix the world.


Diversification is a big word that means less bitcoin.
Sell your real estate for bitcoin!
No more
- leaky roofs
- annoying tenants
- clogged toilets
…all while still underperforming 🫠
Trillions of dollars of wealth will transfer from the Baby Boomers to younger generations.
They are digitally native and much more likely to find bitcoin valuable.
There has been a lot of chop and basing higher for bitcoin in 2025.
Don't forget: this thing can move VERY QUICKLY when it breaks free.
Cash on the sideline is risky.
Have you stacked hard enough to feel comfortable when bitcoin makes a new all time high?

“Invest” doesn’t mean what you think it does.
If you’re fine with owning VTSAX to save, and your whole approach to personal finance depends on its value increasing, dismissing bitcoin as “not an investment” because it has no cash flows makes zero sense.
People assume using money means spending it.
In reality, the main use of money is holding it—keeping your options open.
Bitcoin is built for that.
This is the most common argument I see from the Knots folks


Global debt keeps climbing.
Bitcoin’s supply stays fixed at 21 million.
All you need to know.
The best thing about the Core v Knots ordeal is more people running nodes, even if they don’t fully understand how it all works yet.
