Ahhh, looks like I’ll be featuring with my brother @3hunnatheArtist again, but in a different light this evening. Alongside @GPSC_STX and @ReeceSwanepoel legendary artists on @Stacks 💪🏾
Come through let’s chop it up! 👊🏾🫡
Bitcoin DeFi isn’t theoretical anymore.
@Stacks is securing $120M+ TVL with 3,600+ BTC stacked, 345 miners live, & over 4,470 BTC spent securing the chain.
🔹 Dual yield via PoX
🔸 sBTC bridge live
🔹 Nakamoto finality in <10s
Bitcoin’s capital markets are coming online, anon!
My unfiltered take on @Stacks SIP-31.
TL;DR
🔴 Bearish short term.
🟢 Necessary and bullish long term.
🟢 Following a decentralized process.
Why bearish then bullish? Why is it necessary? How is it decentralized if supply can change?
My thoughts on each of these points....
Bitcoin DeFi is entering its breakout phase.
@Stacks is unlocking a new era for Bitcoin:
🔹 sBTC bridge live
🔸 Fast finality w/ Nakamoto upgrade
🔹 $250M DeFi plan in motion
🔸 A new emission schedule to fuel it all
Here’s what you need to know anon 🧵
What’s happening in the Stacks ecosystem?
• On May 15, the sBTC cap-3 will allow 2,000 more BTC to flow into Stacks.
• @StackingDao has enabled daily Stacking rewards payout for its LSTs
• @xverse announces a new improved fiat onramp live for BTC and STX
If this new stacking TVL ATH doesn't appeal to you that @Stacks, the leading Bitcoin L2 adoption is accelerating fast, IDK what you're looking for to start stacking
This is coupled with 2,000 BTC flowing into @Stacks in less than 24 hours to be a productive bitcoin & earn yields
The Build Battle brought in some top-tier Stacks projects.
From Bitcoin-native prediction markets to protocols enabling sBTC gas fees and Stacks scaling solutions.
Now’s the time for these builders to apply to the Stacks Ascent program and turn their ideas into real startups.
Bitcoin is helping keep the lights on through mini-grids in Africa.
Erik Hersman from Gridless:
“This is the beauty of decentralised energy. Bitcoin can be the financial engine behind it.”
Another brilliant film by @JoeNakamoto uncovering the real impact of Bitcoin on the ground.

Finally, we're seeing the mainstream press begin to admit that the UK's colossal national debt is a problem - and that the interest or coupon payments on that debt are a bit of an issue as well.
We @bitcoinpolicyuk have been making this point for some time, but it's fashionable to ignore such warnings until the problem has become essentially terminal.
The next step is for them to admit that the only known ways of solving this are (i) a short period of hyperinflation, combined with (ii) a consequential and massive debasement of the currency. Cutting wasteful government spending could help as well, but we can discount that as pure fantasy.
What does this mean for you? Essentially that continuing to hold cash is likely to be devastating for your personal finances. When the debasement begins in earnest, it will wipe out the purchasing power of your pounds.
So consider holding hard assets that preferably they can't confiscate or debase.
Remember - the government is not coming to save you. You have to save yourself.
UK regulators are driving bitcoin businesses away while other countries capitalise on the opportunity. The FCA’s blanket cryptoasset policy is crushing innovation, stifling growth, pushing companies offshore, and making the UK increasingly hostile to bitcoin businesses.
Companies are scaling back or leaving the UK due to restrictive and unclear regulations. Meanwhile, the US, UAE, and Singapore are actively attracting bitcoin investment.
Bitcoin is not a meme coin. It is the future of finance.
If this continues, the UK will lose its financial edge and risk global irrelevance as investment moves elsewhere.
