$100k is in the process of being normalized. $90k already feels cheap. $50k feels no different than $5k, never to be seen again. $1 million feels inevitable.

Property taxes are so insidious. Other people print money, causing the nominal value of your house to increase. Property taxes are assessed on the current value of your home, so as the property value rises, so does your tax bill. But that extra home value is not liquid and

A buddy of mine texted me today asking for the most efficient way to buy bitcoin. I sent him to River. 5 mins later (no joke), he texted me that he had smash-bought $100k.
We do the hard, boring work ahead of time at @River so that we can serve you reliably during weeks like this. Our systems have been operating smooth as butter (knock on wood).

A lot of people making the point that you can't have a fully reserved bank alongside fractionally reserved banks bc deposits will flow to the fully reserved one. This is exactly why bitcoin will win.

How about stop printing money so one parent can stay at home?.
Parents spend an average of $11,582 a year on child care. That’s for one kid. Families should not have to spend that much on quality care for their babies. How do we solve this? Federal investments in child care and child care workers.

The other day I got connected to a guy who is in turn connected to over 50 family offices. He's new to bitcoin and learning. One question he had was about whether or not bitcoin has unlimited supply because it's theoretically infinitely divisible. A very smart guy, but damn 🤦♂️.

BITCOIN CAN SHORTEN YOUR PATH TO FIRE. FIRE practitioners typically use a 4% withdrawal rate to plan for their FI number. That means for every $40k in anticipated annual expenses, you need to save $1 million. This assumes ~9% average nominal return in the stock market index to.

My node will never run code where supply >21 million. There is no alternative.
BTC will lift the 21M limit before the security budget runs out. This was always the main alternative to raising the blocksize limit. Core fought tooth & nail to prevent L1 scaling; now, it must compensate for the low fees it caused!. Increasing inflation is the only option left!.

There is 100% certainty that the US debt will be drastically higher 10 years from now. There is 100% certainty that the dollar money supply will be drastically higher 10 years from now. There is 100% certainty that bitcoin's maximum supply is 21 million BTC. Anyone with two.

Top 10 tips for every bitcoin multisig beginner 👀👇. 1⃣ Bitcoin doesn't live on your device - Instead of storing your bitcoin, your hardware wallet protects and stores the keys used to unlock—or spend—bitcoin from those addresses. 2⃣ You can restore your seed phrase to another.

Nice to see @steveliesman ask an important question about #bitcoin ownership in an ETF. A good answer from @APompliano. Owning the ETF means you have price exposure but do not own the real thing.

@AtlasPulse Huh? Gold has TONS of energy consumption built into it. You have to mine it, transport it, secure it, assay it, etc. You could choose to be happy that we have something with all of gold's strengths and none of its weaknesses, but instead of whine like a mean kid stole your toy.
