At 98.6 is reaching a similar yield as SATA (if you consider holding the stock for a year and then being able to sell at par value $100). I feel the yield of STRC will need to be increased to be able to compete with SATA. I switched my cash engine from STRC to SATA today. I feel the daily dividend coupled with 13% makes it a better option for my income strategy.

Big problems feel easier when you break them down. Here’s a simple step-by-step approach to effective problem solving.

The right time isn’t found, it’s created. Take the step today, not someday.

🚨 Exposing California's corrupt "Stop Nick Shirley Act", instead of going after the fraudsters California is now going after the people exposing the fraud.

This bill AB 2624 will:
- Criminalize journalists with misdemeanors, $10,000 fines, imprisonment, and content takedown
- Let immigrant based NGOs' funding be confidential
- Take away freedom of the press from journalists
- Protect any "immigration support services" information from being public (healthcare, legal services, etc)

This bill was created by the Attorney General's WIFE Mia Bonta to stop fraud from being exposed. Please like and share this video everywhere! By trying to silence and intimidate journalists, they are trying to hide the truth from you. EXPOSE ALL THE FRAUD.

@saylor @ColeMacro To reduce volatility it may help if it would be possible to incorporate a time variable in the dividend payment formula so in order for STRC owners to get the max dividend for the period, they should hold the stock for the full period.

It's all very abstract until you look at one. Just one. And imagine what she's going through after 7 years in this cage.

This is why we had to break them out.

[ⁿᵉʷˢ Barron Trump 🇺🇸 @BarronTNews_]

🚨 JUST IN: Mike Lee just dropped the truth bomb Congress hates.

We could cut $1.5 TRILLION or MORE if Congress simply stopped funding things that have NOTHING to do with its enumerated powers.

“We need a constitutional reset.” 💯
“That alone would wipe out massive fraud and finally allow Congress to balance the budget.”

This is the conversation Washington has avoided for decades.
End the slush funds.
End the endless programs.
End the fraud pipeline.

A balanced budget isn’t radical.
What’s radical is pretending this mess is sustainable.

Long overdue.

[Mila Joy @Milajoy]

A more important question would be…

Why do Republicans do NOTHING about the fraud discovered?

[Kevin Bass @kevinnbass]

The Senate, which is run by Republicans, is about to pass a bill to pay for more refugees.

For $5,691,033,000.

These refugees will live in your neighborhoods, not the neighborhoods of the Senators who are using your money to bring them in.

[James Woods @RealJamesWoods]

Republicans have the Presidency, the Supreme Court, the House and the Senate. And yet…

We don’t have a Voter ID law.

Not a single crooked Democrat has been jailed, censured, impeached, or expelled.

Taxpayers are being defrauded by the billions.

And Republicans do NOTHING.

[AZ @Driven2Action]

@EricLDaugh The people approving our tax dollars going into these organizations need to be held accountable. This massive fraud needs to stop, we work hard to earn income to then have our government tax us and waste our taxes in fraud instead of using our taxes improving our lives.

🇫🇷 🚜 Tremendo el coraje de los agricultores franceses!!

En SudOuest han bloqueado la A63 y están instalando un campamento.

Parece que Macron y la UE no se van a salir con la suya de arruinarlos.

[dejanira @dejanirasilveir]

Esto es imparable; Francia, Inglaterra, Portugal, Bulgaria, Italia... La Rebelión Agrícola está en marcha contra la UE y la destrucción de los Agricultores.
Apoyar a los Agricultores es cuestión de vida.
¡¡Ayuda!! Sin Agricultores, no hay alimentos.

🔥🔥🔥🔥☄️

[dejanira @dejanirasilveir]

🚨🚨BOOOM 💥FRANCIA 🇫🇷🔥
HA COMENZADO un movimiento unificado 🔥
¡El movimiento RÉVEILS TERROIRS acaba de nacer!

Los artesanos y pescadores se han unido al movimiento con los Agricultores 🔥

Mientras Agricultores bloquean carreteras por TODA FRANCIA...

No lo veras en TV. COMPARTE esto es enorme... 🔥🔥🔥

The Stages of Becoming Orange-Pilled

Stage One: You're Sleeping

You're comfortable. You have a job. A 401k.

You believe in "the economy." You think the Federal Reserve is boring but necessary, like flossing or C-SPAN. You're saving money.

By which I mean: you're watching your purchasing power evaporate in real-time while calling it "being responsible."

You are a debt slave who hasn't checked the chains yet.

Someone mentions Bitcoin at a party. You laugh. "That thing criminals use?" you say. "That internet money that crashed?" Everyone nods. You all agree.

Bitcoin is ridiculous.

You go back to discussing your mortgage - 30 years of indentured servitude at 6.5% interest that you celebrate like Stockholm syndrome.

The system has you. And you don't even know it.

Stage Two: The Itch

Something doesn't add up.

Why do houses cost ten times what they cost when your parents bought theirs?

Why does your salary sound impressive until you try to buy anything?

Why can BlackRock afford to buy every house in America but you can't afford one?

You start noticing things. The money printer memes.

The inflation rates that don't match your grocery bill.

The billionaires getting bailouts while you get budgeting advice.

Bitcoin keeps appearing. In headlines. In conversations.

Like a splinter in your mind. Like the Matrix glitching.

You buy $100 worth as a joke. To say you did it. To see what happens.

The price immediately drops 30%.

Welcome to the fucking arena.

Stage Three: The Rabbit Hole

You were just going to check the price. Just a quick look.

That was six hours ago.

Now you're watching a video about the Byzantine Generals Problem.

Now you understand what "proof of work" means.

Now you're reading the white paper - nine pages that explain how to trust math instead of men - and something in your chest cracks open.

You realize: Every economics class you took was a lie.

Every financial advisor was selling you slavery with extra steps.

The entire monetary system is just confidence game wrapped in acronyms.

You're angry. So fucking angry.

You buy more Bitcoin. Not because the price is going up.

Because you've seen the truth and you can't afford not to.

Your friends are worried.

Your spouse is asking questions.

You're trying to explain that money isn't real but also it's the most real thing and Bitcoin is the only honest ledger in a world of lies and....

...you sound insane. You know you sound insane.

But you also know you're right.

Stage Four: The Zealot

You are insufferable.

Every conversation becomes about Bitcoin. Your family dreads Thanksgiving. Your coworkers avoid the break room when you're there.

You've memorized Saylor's speeches. You quote Satoshi like scripture.

You see fiat debasement everywhere.

In the shrinking candy bars, the subscription fees, the way your parents' generation bought houses on single incomes and now you need three jobs to rent a studio.

You calculate everything in sats. You experience physical pain watching people "invest" in bonds yielding 3% while inflation runs at 7%.

You want to grab strangers and shake them: DON'T YOU SEE? THE WHOLE THING IS A SCAM.

You go through bear markets like Christ in the desert.

80% drops that would make normal investors vomit.

But you? You're dollar-cost-averaging.

You're stacking sats.

You're buying the dip with money you shouldn't be spending because you've calculated that in 2035 this will seem cheap and your only regret will be not buying more.

Your conviction is unshakeable. Your portfolio is red.

Your family intervention is scheduled for next Tuesday.

Stage Five: The Plateau

The mania subsides. Not the belief - that's permanent now - but the need to convince everyone.

You realize: They have to find it themselves.

The orange pill can't be forced down someone's throat.

It has to be swallowed willingly.

You stop checking the price every hour. Then every day. Then every week.

You understand now: Bitcoin doesn't care about your attention. Bitcoin doesn't care about anything. It just produces blocks every ten minutes like the universe's most reliable heartbeat.

You set up your cold storage. You run a node. You become part of the infrastructure.

You're not investing anymore. You're participating in the future of money.

The volatility doesn't scare you. You've seen Bitcoin "die" 400 times in headlines. You've watched it resurrect itself while the dollar dies slowly, quietly, by design.

You're calm now. Eerily calm.

Because you've done the math and the math doesn't lie.

Stage Six: The Acceptance

You stop measuring your Bitcoin in dollars. That's the final step. That's enlightenment.

Because denominating your Bitcoin in dollars is like measuring the sun's brightness using a candle.

You understand now: You're not getting rich. The money is getting poor. Bitcoin isn't going up. Everything else is going down.

The dollar is the shitcoin. It always was.

You've become time-preference incarnate. Low time preference like a sequoia. Like a glacier.

You're thinking in decades now. In halvings. In generations.

While everyone else is playing checkers with their paychecks, you're playing 4D chess with your bloodline's financial sovereignty.

You don't talk about Bitcoin much anymore. When people ask, you share. When they don't, you stack.

You've realized the greatest gift you can give someone is not to convince them about Bitcoin, but to be there when they're ready to ask.

Stage Seven: The Becoming

Here's the secret they don't tell you: Bitcoin changes you in ways that have nothing to do with money.

You learn patience. You learn to do your own research.

You learn to verify instead of trust. You learn that the majority is often wrong and being early feels exactly like being wrong until suddenly it doesn't.

You become ungovernable. Not in an angry way. In a quiet, competent, self-sovereign way. You stop asking permission.

You stop waiting for institutions to save you.

You save yourself.

The journey isn't about getting rich quick. It never was.

It's about getting free slowly.

It's about opting out of a system that was designed to extract your life force one paycheck at a time and opting into a network that runs on mathematics instead of manipulation.

The Truth

You are not the same person who bought that first $100 of Bitcoin.

That person is dead.

They died the moment they understood that scarcity is real and the emperors have no clothes.

What remains is someone who's tasted financial sovereignty and can never go back to believing in fairy tales about stable coins printed by unstable governments.

The journey never ends. Bitcoin is always ten years away from changing everything and always has been.

But you? You're already changed.

You've seen the future.

And the future is ₿.
