What a year it has been so far. Bitcoin ETF launched, a $BTC friendly President has been elected in the US, Nation states joining the race and a new all time high of 82 K just crossed.

The Bull Market is in full swing, and I am anxious to be honest. New $BTC ATH attracts all sorts of misery. FOMO, the raise of Influencers, legacy media misinformation, Greed and the urge to check the the portfolio more than one should.

But this will pass too, things will normalise again and after all it is part of $BTCs journey to full adoption.

My antidote is my focus on Health, Family and Nature. Real wealth is gained from quality time with your loved ones. The most precious thing in this universe is your time on this earth. Use it wisely and don’t let any number on the screen distract you from it.

The summer was scorching, and I savored every moment of it. For the first time in two months, the temperature dropped as rain rolled in — nature seemed to exhale in relief. Around the same time, $BTC woke from its slumber, once again proving the "it's dead" critics wrong.

The year has only just begun, and I’m grateful for the beautiful memories I shared with my family over the Christmas break. My priorities remain unchanged: Health, Family, Nature, Books, and Bitcoin. Everything else is just noise. God bless you.

At times, it’s hard not to get lost. The antidote is simple: focus on the essentials—health, family, children, Bitcoin, and nature.

The year is slowly coming to an end, and it has been a hectic one. X is once again like a town square filled with attention-seeking merchants on steroids. It’s hardly enjoyable in its current state, so I stay away as much as I can.

ETH has risen from the dead and stepped back into the spotlight. It feels very similar to the NFT madness a few years ago. The U.S. president adds yet another layer of complexity to the mix—so much noise and so little signal.

The chocolate was great and the Louis Vuitton design of the box looks neat. I love Lindt, but I have a hard time justifying the allocation of assets to this one stock for 5 kg of chocolate.

[AlpenFIRE 🇨🇭⛰️🔥 @alpenfire]

Below you see this years $LINDT chocolate box dividend. You get this box if you are a shareholder and attend the annual general meeting. It weighs around 5 KG. The price of one share currently sits around 129'000 CHF (156'000 USD).

@piotrbinkowski The year is 3209

[AlpenFIRE 🇨🇭⛰️🔥 @alpenfire]

The new year kicked off, and we should brace ourselves for a bumpy ride. The sparks of hope ignited last year are turning into a grifter's paradise.

Powerful and prominent figures are selling a new future and making promises that cannot be kept. As I stated last year, all-time highs are always the most challenging part of the adoption cycle for me.

It is difficult to escape the noise and distractions and keep a sane mind. Bear markets, on the other hand, are tranquil and provide ground to breathe and analyse.

But there is hope because this, too, shall pass. The noise will fade, attention spans will look elsewhere, and suddenly, after a long winter, the first spring flowers will appear.

The $BTC Bullrun is here and $BTC is once again the talk of the town. Headlines are dominated by the new ATH. Influencers flashing their lavish lifestyles, Microstrategy going parabolic and colleagues at the office are suddenly all interested in $BTC again.

You don’t need to play this game just because your Net worth is at an ATH. There is nothing wrong by not changing a thing. There are plenty of people trying to impress by flashing designer cloths or fancy cars. Let them and be thankful that they expose themselves to the masses.

Enjoy the peace of knowing your conviction plays out, enjoy looking average and blending in. Anonymity is a safeguard because the last thing you want is to attract attention during a gold rush.

@joecarlsonshow That is why you are different than any other Youtuber in that space. You follow a clear strategy and you always present solid arguments why you do what you do. Please never change.

I really like the newly unveiled statue of Satoshi Nakamoto in #Lugano. Especially the way it honors privacy. Depending on the perspective, it disappears. #PlanBForum #privacy 🇨🇭

Don‘t worry friend

True beauty lies in mundane things in life. And #Bitcoin is mundane. When you remove all the layers of lies around money, the dirty politicians, central bankers and greed you will find something pure. It feels unfamiliar, simple and sometimes to good to be true. But don‘t be afraid friend. I know you are vulnerable and a sceptic.

Invest some time and study #Bitcoin , you have nothing to loose and much to gain. Should you conclude that this is the hardest money, and a solution the world desperately needs, your heart will be filled with hope and all your eyes can see is beauty and a bright future ahead of us as a species.

I 100% agree with you. I see more and more people who have no clue about investing and no interest to educate themselves who blindly invest in ETFs because they are told the past returns were about 7%. It will be interesting to see what will happen once a longer market downturn should occur and the sentiment shifts from buying the dip to panic selling.
