"A lot of these (high net worth) Bitcoiners aren't necessarily extremely high income; it's because they were saving in Bitcoin for the last decade that now they have so much wealth. I've never seen a group of users that have such low income but such high wealth, and Bitcoin is what created that for them. The best decision that they made financially was to just save in Bitcoin." - Maredia Shehzan - Founder of Lava on Anthony Pompliano


There is no second best.
Bitcoin.


Every financial convo I have-
Them: So ALL your money and investments are in bitcoin?
Me: Yes.
Them: All of it, all of it?
Me: Correct.
Them: No 401(k)’s?
Me: Cashed em’ in for Bitcoin.
Them: No IRA’s?
Me: God, no.
Them: Pension?
Me: Ew, no. Cashed them in too.

At my annual checkup yesterday, my 77-year-old doctor asked what I’ve been working on. I mentioned my new creative agency, which focuses on Bitcoin and AI companies. Her eyes lit up. “How about that new ATH!”
I nearly spit out my water.
Seeing my reaction, she continued, “My boyfriend started buying me Bitcoin around $3k. At first, I thought he was crazy. I’m a doctor - I trust peer-reviewed studies, not internet money.”
I asked what convinced her. “I realized I needed to study it before making assumptions. So I did. I asked questions that initially made me feel stupid. That's when it clicked. I finally understood what I was holding. I’ve been buying ever since.”
A great reminder that Bitcoin isn’t an IQ test.
It’s a humility test.


"These evil f**ks who print money to destroy lives, cause inflation, and fund wars are a bunch of mother f**ckers. Regarding the feds getting our bitcoin, good luck with that. Bitcoin is a peasant's revolution. We're not f**cked. You're f**cked." - Lawrence Lepard onstage at BTC in D.C. in a room full of politicians.
What a God damned G.


Everyone says, “If only I had a crystal ball...”
You do. It’s called Bitcoin.
It shows us a future of financial freedom, peace, abundance, and personal agency. The vision is clear - the choice is yours. 🔮₿


AI might take your job. But Fiat already took your raise.

Why the Path to Mass Adoption Runs Through Better Storytelling

"We spend too much time arguing like we're right, and too little time listening like we're wrong. Diatribes don't change minds. Productive disagreement depends on showing respect, curiosity, and humility. The most compelling teachers are the ones who are most eager to learn." - Adam Grant

The most profound thing about Bitcoin?
In a world of financial dependency, it’s the first tool that hands the keys back to the individual and gives you what Wall Street, banks, and governments never will: agency over your own money.


Take off your blinders.
Study Bitcoin.


Every person who holds Bitcoin, every business that accepts it, and every person who uses it in their daily transactions is casting a vote for a different kind of world - one of peace, prosperity, financial freedom, and sovereignty.


How being a Bitcoiner often feels.


Thanks to Gemini’s new AI tool, Nano Banana, I can finally picture life on the Bitcoin standard.
Spoiler: I’m thriving.


"Bitcoin is everything people don't know about computers, combined with everything they don't understand about money."
John Oliver


“Governments will not stop spending, Central Banks will not stop printing, and Bitcoin will protect you from the consequences of both.” - James Lavish


How much longer will you keep playing their game when the exit is right in front of you?
Bitcoin.


Aug 15, 1971: Nixon ends gold-backed money. 54 years since Nixon said, “We’re taking the dollar off gold - just temporarily.”
54 years later, the dollar’s lost over 90% of its purchasing power.
I’m grateful every day that I discovered Bitcoin - perfect money, digital gold that no president (or anyone) can debase - the exit ramp from silent theft. Proud to be part of the peaceful revolution.
