@saifedean@COLDCARDwallet I’m a huge fan of you @saifedean However, one thing that REALLY doesn’t sit well with me is that you have shown ZERO humility through this whole mess and you promoted Coldcard for years!
Everyone is watching Bitcoin’s price. Almost no one is watching what it’s actually doing.
In East Africa, Kibera, one of Nairobi’s largest settlements residents are using bitcoin for everyday commerce.
Not speculation. Not ideology. Payments. A way to move money without giving a middleman a cut.
Kenya’s policymakers moved toward crypto regulation because adoption was already happening on the ground.
Wall Street doesn’t model this.
Bitcoin’s bull case is not just “number go up.” It is that a permissionless monetary network solves problems legacy finance has never solved and never had the incentive to.
Expensive remittances. Fragile savings. Systems that charge the poorest people the most.
Meanwhile Bitcoin is near $69.2K. Spot ETFs took in more than $760M on February 25–26, before a small $27.5M outflow on February 27.
Institutional demand is reaccelerating. Liquid supply remains tight.
But here is what most capital still gets wrong:
Bitcoin’s utility spreads first.
Wall Street prices it later.
That is the trade most people will understand five years too late.
JACK DORSEY ACABOU DE CRIAR UM PROBLEMA PRA TODO DITADOR DO MUNDO
E o primeiro teste é em 7 dias.
Na Uganda. O país vai às urnas dia 15.
Museveni governa desde 1986. Em toda eleição, corta a internet. Literalmente toda vez.
→ 2016: blackout total
→ 2021: 4 dias offline durante a votação
Oposição não consegue coordenar, verificar votos, documentar nada
Aí veio o Bitchat.
400.000 ugandenses baixaram o app em uma semana.
1% da população.
O app usa Bluetooth mesh. Mensagens pulam de celular em celular. Sem internet. Sem servidor. Sem torre.
O regulador de telecom foi pra TV dizer que tem "a maior concentração de engenheiros de software do país" pra bloquear o app.
O desenvolvedor respondeu no X:
"Você não pode parar o Bitchat. Você não pode nos parar. Free and open source. Unstoppable."
Ele está tecnicamente correto.
Pra bloquear o Bitchat, o governo teria que desligar o Bluetooth de todo celular do país. Ou confiscar os aparelhos. Ou proibir ugandenses de ficarem a menos de 100 metros uns dos outros.
O regime ordenou Starlink suspender operações. Controle de satélite. Controle de fibra. Controle de torres.
Nenhum desses controla Bluetooth.
40 anos de investimento em censura.
Derrotado por ondas de rádio de curto alcance que existem desde 1994.
E o Bitchat ainda manda transações de Bitcoin offline.
Bobi Wine, líder da oposição, pediu pra população baixar antes do apagão. Dessa vez eles vão pro escuro armados.
15 de janeiro.
Se o Bitchat derrotar Museveni, todo ditador do mundo acorda com um problema novo.
Ever wonder if mining bitcoin could be a cheaper way to heat your house? Unsure if it makes sense with your electric and fuel rates? Curious how different miners stack up?

The Christmas Coil: Why Bitcoin Is Frozen and Why It Won’t Stay That Way
Price is trapped by the options market, not by sellers. The $90,000 strike has become a temporary gravity center because dealer hedging forces price back toward it. This creates the illusion of indecision while storing energy for release.
What Is Actually Happening
At ~$90k, dealers are long gamma.
That single fact explains everything:
• When price falls, dealers must buy
• When price rises, dealers must sell
The result is a self-correcting loop. Volatility collapses. Breakouts fail. Price feels pinned because it is.
This is not a market opinion. It is hedging math.
Why This State Cannot Persist
Gamma is not permanent. It expires.
On December 26, nearly half of all outstanding gamma disappears. When that happens, the force suppressing volatility vanishes instantly. There is no gradual transition. The pin either exists or it doesn’t.
Markets do not “decide” after expiry. They move.
The Critical Asymmetry
Below ~$90k, dealers dampen movement.
Above ~$91k, dealers amplify it.
This is the most important insight
A sustained move above the gamma flip forces dealers to chase price higher, not fade it. Liquidity thins. Speed increases. Price jumps levels instead of trading through them.
Why $100k Becomes Reachable So Fast
The $90k level is a lid only while gamma exists.
Once removed:
• There is no structural resistance until the $100k call wall
• Spot demand no longer gets sold into
• Momentum compounds instead of cancel
The path clears not because buyers appear, but because sellers disappear.
The Setup in One Sentence
Bitcoin is compressed by dealer hedging today, and that compression is mathematically guaranteed to end on December 26.
When it does, price will move quickly not because sentiment changes, but because the constraints are gone.

@TheBTCTherapist The more I see your posts the more I realize you must be either new to this beautiful invention we all love or just a bit ignorant. How about you just stay humble and stack sats?
I’m at the barbershop listening to normies break down last week’s football game like Wall Street analysts. They know every stat, every player’s contract, every trade rumor.
But ask them about inflation, interest rates, or where their money’s bleeding out, and it’s blank stares. Experts on someone else’s finances, clueless about their own.
That’s the system’s greatest trick: distract you with games while it robs you blind. I stack Bitcoin because I refuse to play stupid.
I find it so extremely interesting that just 3 months into carnivore, I had already increased my deadlift from 225# to 315#.
I had been trying to deadlift 315# ever since I began heavy lifting almost 15 years ago.
Before carnivore, I was eating a plant-heavy diet with lean meats and some dairy. People will try to tell me that my strength increased on carnivore because I was getting more protein. But was I?
According to my food app, with my previous diet, I was supposedly eating around 200g of protein every day. That was in the form of chicken breasts, cottage cheese, vanilla yogurt, vanilla almond milk, peanut butter, beans, chick peas, whey protein powder, plant-based vitamin powders, snack cheese, plant-based protein snack bars, etc.
After going carnivore, after the first couple weeks of eating 2-3 meals per day, I was typically eating 1-2 meals a day, no snacks, and getting anywhere between 80g-150g of protein every day.
So, if it wasn't the amount of protein that increased my strength, what was it?
Here's my theories:
- I traded my plant-based proteins for 100% animal-based proteins. Plant-based proteins are incomplete and difficult for the body to convert to a bioavailable form. Animal-based proteins are easy for the body to absorb. No conversion necessary.
- I stopped eating high fiber foods that inflame my gut and make it more difficult to absorb nutrients.
- I stopped eating plants like nuts, beans, peas, almond milk, vitamin and plant-based powders that contain anti-nutrients and further reduce my gut's ability to absorb nutrients.
My strength increased not because of the amount of protein but because of the quality of the protein, how bioavailable it was, and how I let my gut heal and absorb the food naturally.

When rates inevitably come down with Bitcoin backed lending, it will be the initiation of the death spiral of the fiat system.
Just wait until you can take your Bitcoin, use it as collateral to get a loan paying 5% interest, and then buy $STRF paying you an effective ~10% yield.
You keep all your Bitcoin, pocket the ~5% spread, and give your fiat to Michael Saylor for him to convert it into more Bitcoin.
And your yield is from the most senior product in the capital stack of the greatest mountain of pristine collateral ever accumulated.
Game over.
🔥 You should go nuclear. Quietly. Strategically. Irreversibly.
This isn’t about getting your YouTube channel back. It’s a fork-in-the-road moment.
🧭 You should never build on YouTube again.
That trust is gone. Permanently.
Any attempt to appeal, restore, or comply just validates the illusion that the platform is fair.
It’s not.
The rules are engineered to preserve centralized narratives. You were useful until you weren’t.
🧠 Your real leverage is the Streisand Effect + your legacy.
You have 9 years of trust, reach, and social proof. Over 16 million views.
The takedown hands you the perfect narrative weapon:
“I taught people how to hold their own money. For that, YouTube erased everything.”
If you frame this without victim energy and with total moral clarity, you can ignite a firestorm:
•Bitcoin Twitter will rally
•Podcasts will book you
•Journalists will bite (if you frame it as sovereignty vs censorship)
•Followers will migrate wherever you lead
🛠️ Here’s exactly what you should do next:
1. Record a raw, high-signal video explaining what happened - no apology, no sadness. Just clarity, history, and purpose.
Post it everywhere except YouTube. Pin it across every platform.
2. Launch your “Sovereign Feed” on Nostr, Odysee, Fountain, and your own minimal self-owned site.
Archive your old content, tutorials, insights. Make it uncensorable.
3. Name the attack for what it is: anti-sovereignty censorship.
Say the quiet part out loud. Not with rage with resonance:
> “When you teach people how to escape the system, the system eventually notices.”
4. Turn your next project into a proof-of-resilience.
Build a decentralized education vault. Mirror it to IPFS. Let others fork it.
Make censorship irrelevant.
🧨 And here’s the core move:
Never again let a platform own the archive of your mind.
From now on, your identity, content, and value delivery must live on rails that cannot be erased.
Rebuilding on YouTube would be like returning to the regime that burned your library.
Final Word
You don’t need justice.
You need clarity.
And then vengeance through creation, truth, and sovereignty.
This is the moment you stop being a content creator.
And become a sovereign node in the Bitcoin resistance.
Forever uncensorable.
