Matthew Kratter of Bitcoin University gives one of the best talks on Bitcoin:
"If self sovereign adoption took us from zero dollars a coin to sixty nine thousand dollars a coin, all of those flows from BlackRock and the Trumps and Saylor and everything has has only taken us a few ten thousand dollars higher than at this moment."
"Instead of looking to the government or Saylor or BlackRock or someone else as our saviors, if you want the price of Bitcoin to go up, you just need to use it as money yourself. You need to because if Bitcoiners aren't going to use Bitcoin as money, I'm not sure who is."
"Ask to pay in Bitcoin, ask to be paid to be paid in Bitcoin, because this is how real Bitcoin adoption works. You should be HODLing your sats, trying to get rid of US dollars, whatever your fiat currency is, because this is the money of pedophile rings and forever wars. Don't hold US dollars. And that's the that's the fastest way we get to higher Bitcoin prices is we need to destroy US dollar network effects. And we need to increase Bitcoin network effects. And the way you do that is every Bitcoiner runs a node, gets paid in Bitcoin and tries to buy as much as possible using using Bitcoin."
US inflation is red hot.
1. CPI Inflation: 3.8%, highest since May 2023
2. PCE Inflation: 3.8%, highest since May 2023
3. PPI Inflation: 6.0%, highest since March 2023
4. Services Inflation: 3.4%, highest since Sept 2025
5. Shelter Inflation: 3.3%, highest since Sept 2025
6. Energy Inflation: 17.9%, highest since Sept 2022
7. Gasoline Inflation: 28.4%, highest since June 2022
Inflation is reaccelerating across nearly every major category of the US economy.
Are you positioned accordingly?
If the dollar is debased, assets will inflate.
If assets are inflated, savers will fall behind.
If savers fall behind, socialism will rise.
If socialism rises, the government will default.
If the government defaults, you better hope you are holding gold and bitcoin.
Absolutely incredible:
Over the last 6 years, the S&P 500 has risen +130% while US Consumer Sentiment has collapsed by -55%, to its lowest since data began in 1952.
We are witnessing the formation of the biggest wealth divide in modern history.

CRYPTO IS THE MOST UNDEROWNED ASSET RIGHT NOW 👀
NASDAQ near highs.

HUGE: THE SEC IS MOVING TOWARD TOKENIZED STOCKS
Why this matters:
⚡ 24/7 stock trading
🌍 Global investor access
💵 Faster settlement + lower costs
🔓 Fractional ownership for anyone
Wall Street is starting to move on-chain.
The SEC is preparing to introduce an "innovation exemption" that would create a new framework for blockchain-based tokenized stock trading in the United States.
The proposal would allow digital versions of publicly traded securities to trade on blockchain networks, potentially expanding how investors access exposure to US stocks.
According to a report by Bloomberg, the plan could be released as soon as this week and forms part of the Trump administration's effort to loosen restrictions around crypto markets.
The framework would represent a major change for digital assets tied to traditional stocks, giving the SEC a clearer path to oversee tokenized securities in US markets.
US oil reserves are falling at a record pace:
The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) dropped -8.6 million barrels last week, the largest weekly drawdown on record, per Zerohedge.
This marks the 7th consecutive weekly decline, the longest streak since 2023.
Over this period, US oil reserves in the SPR have dropped -31 million barrels, to 384 million, the lowest since October 2024.
This wipes out nearly half of all the oil added to the SPR between July 2023 and March 2026.
Meanwhile, US crude oil exports jumped +742,000 barrels last week, to 5.5 million barrels per day, the 2nd-highest in at least 3 years, after a record 6.5 million barrels per day 2 weeks prior.
The world is scrambling for American oil.
Money supply is skyrocketing:
Global money supply is now up to a record $121.9 trillion.
Over the last 2 years, money supply has soared +$17.1 trillion, or +16%.
This also marks a +$27 trillion increase, or +28%, since the 2022 low.
This means that global money supply is surging +7% to +8% a year.
Meanwhile, US M2 money supply jumped +$1 trillion YoY, or +4.6%, to a record $22.7 trillion.
Money supply growth is accelerating.
@TKL_Adam We are now dealing with compounding inflation in the US.
Not only did inflation fail to fall to the Fed's 2.0% target, but we also have inflation on top of inflation.
As a result, the US Dollar has lost ~30% of its purchasing power since 2020, a historic collapse in value.
