"Bitcoin isn't backed by anything."
Let me stop you right there.
Bitcoin is backed by energy. Real energy. Kilowatts. Heat. Physics.
The kind of backing you can't print, fake, or vote into existence at an emergency Fed meeting.
Every block mined is a thermodynamic proof of work. Not a promise. Not a policy. Proof.
The issuance schedule has never been amended by a committee. Not once. Not ever. Because there is no committee.
There's just math. Cold, indifferent, and immune to political theater.
The network is secured by more raw computing power than anything humanity has ever built. Hundreds of exahashes per second standing guard. Every single day.
Now let's talk about what is backed by nothing.
The dollar.
It's is backed by confidence. Specifically, confidence in the institution that printed $6 trillion in two years while telling you 3% inflation was healthy and you should be grateful for the soft landing.
In the same people who can't pass an audit.
Who fund wars with a credit card.
Who promise solvency while sitting on $39 trillion in debt and accelerating.
"Backed by nothing" isn't an attack on Bitcoin.
It's a confession about the dollar.
Follow if you're serious about building wealth they can't print away.
Ok folks – back by popular demand… the 2025 Edition of my "Bitcoin 101 cheat sheet"!
Great for beginners, skeptics, family, friends, or handing out anywhere.
This year, I designed to be printed front and back - it’s the cleanest and most complete explainer I’ve ever seen:
- Front = What Bitcoin is, why it matters, how to get started
- Back = Short explainers of mining, halving, difficulty adjustment + answers to critiques and more
I really wanted to capture what makes Bitcoin work - and why it keeps running with no CEO, no company, and no second chance 😉

- and no it does not come with free bitcoin - so do not ask
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.
We are at the end of @RayDalio’s long term debt cycle.
Equities are bid to extreme valuations.
Real estate is bid to extreme valuations.
Fixed income remains at extreme valuations.
The endgame of the long term debt cycle is fiat debasement. The only escape valve is hard money.
Gold was the hardest money of the past. Bitcoin is the hardest money of today.
As the cycle continues to unwind, bitcoin may absolutely demolish all asset classes.
This is huge. 401Ks can now buy Bitcoin and crypto. Take a look at the U.S. Household Liquid Investable Wealth. Bitcoin and crypto just untapped a 10% liquidity boost.
