The BFFS Summit was one of the best Bitcoin events I attended last year.
Intimate conversations with people building financial services around Bitcoin's principles, not trying to reshape Bitcoin to fit the legacy financial system.
Excited to be speaking again this October!

‼️ MAJOR BREAKING: Carney is the first Canadian Prime Minister in 60 years, whose economy shrank in the first year.
Not during a war.
Not during a pandemic.
Not during 2008.
During peace.
During normalcy.
During Mark Carney.
Not slow it.
Not stall it.
Shrink it.
THIS IS “CANADA STRONG” UNDER CARNEY.
The man with a PhD in Economics, elected to run the economy, running the biggest deficit outside of Covid, is the only Prime Minister, in 60 years, to shrink our economy.
📌 $6 billion to Ukraine since taking office.🇺🇦
$78 billion deficit this year alone.
$55 billion in interest payments.
$7-8 billion in annual foreign aid.
$3.2 billion to bail out condo developers.
For Canadians: 🇨🇦
$1.29 a day in grocery relief.
Record food bank usage.
Homelessness up 62%.
Dollar at a 14-month low.
The only G20 nation in recession.
This is not a government that ran out of money.
This is a government that decided Canadians come last.
Every. Single. Time.

This is not okay. Why aren’t more Canadians talking about this?
Liberal MPs just used their majority to shut down a probe into their own government.
Canadians took to the streets to peacefully protest government overreach before.
Maybe it’s time we band together again and remind our government that Canadians will not stand for corruption without accountability.
Shutting down debates, removing cameras from committees, unelected majority, bribing floor crossers, hundreds of conflicts of interests, censoring the Internet…
This is the most corrupt government in Canada’s history.
Everyone got rugged this cycle. Trump didn't.
Tomorrow @ 2pm EST: Ep. 1 of the Bitcoin Well Podcast, live.
@tatumturnup joins to unpack Trump's crypto money trail and what's really happening in bitcoin mining.
How do you think he came out ahead?

@stankrod@KJJTax CARF reporting isn’t mandated yet and was pushed back to cover 2027 transactions instead of 2026 - if your exchange is reporting before legally required, time to find a better platform like @bitcoinwell. We won’t report until legally required.
Things I’ve learned from a massive basement flood:
1. Marry someone you can laugh with at 3 a.m. while taking turns pumping water out of the basement.
2. Turns out I’m a lot more capable of manual labour than I ever gave myself credit for. Swinging a hammer at drywall is surprisingly therapeutic. RIP a few fingernails.
3. Insurance claims are… a character-building experience.
4. Friends in the trades are worth their weight in gold.
5. I will apparently do just about anything to avoid selling my Bitcoin in a bear market — even if it means becoming my own demolition crew.
Didn’t have “becoming a basement demolition expert” on my 2026 bingo card, but here we are. 🫡₿
as someone who holds 80%+ of their net worth in BTC, this 50%+ decline sucks
HOWEVER - it's also a sign that we are still REALLY early, and it actually makes me more confident we will soon see an END to diminishing returns
BTC is a trillion dollar solution to a $400+ trillion problem of fiat liabilities and broken money
getting 1% of that is $232,000 per BTC
plan accordingly!
It’s so refreshing working with our @bitcoinwell Infinite clients. They see a dip and ACT without any hesitation.
Wires received and there are now more bitcoins stashed away in cold storage 🔐
All within the same day while they just go about their day because it’s all taken care of for them. Love this job 😎
Pretty concerned about the Canadian government seeing what's happening in Illinois.
Carney: "Wait... you can tax people when they buy AND sell bitcoin?"
"Why aren't we doing that already? We need MORE tax!"
We already get taxed when we earn money, spend money, invest money, and die.
Bitcoin shouldn't become another revenue stream for governments.
LATEST: 🇺🇸 Illinois Governor JB Pritzker signed a 0.2% "privilege tax" on all crypto transactions into law, making Illinois the only US state with a universal crypto transaction tax.
Le premier ministre Mark Carney arrive au G7 en tant que seul dirigeant dont le pays est en récession. Dans son discours d’aujourd’hui, il a encore parlé d'un « nouvel ordre mondial », alors que les Canadiens ont des réfrigérateurs vides, des réservoirs d’essence vides et des comptes bancaires vides pour payer ses taxes et ses dépenses inflationnistes. Ils n'ont pas besoin de paroles en l'air.
Il devrait arrêter de s’attribuer le mérite d’actions menées il y a plus d'une décennie. On a un accord de libre-échange avec la France depuis que le premier ministre Stephen Harper a conclu un accord avec l’ensemble de l’Europe. La « déclaration conjointe » inapplicable d’aujourd’hui n’est qu’une nouvelle illusion remplie de propos incohérents et dénués de sens.
Les Canadiens ont besoin de résultats en matière d’abordabilité, d’emploi et de sécurité.
Another day, another news briefing about Canada helping anyone but Canadians.
At home: healthcare under strain, housing unaffordable, cost of living outpacing incomes, and too many talented people leaving.
Canada doesn’t just need Bitcoin. We need to embrace the principles behind it — decentralization, censorship resistance, no central authority, proof of work, scarcity.
It’s 2026 and exchanges are still locking up coins for days or weeks!
You deserve better. It’s time to try @bitcoinwell. USA’s only non-custodial platform⚡️🔐
