Something I want younger investors to hear:
The mistakes you make with small amounts of money are tuition.
Pay willingly. Learn thoroughly. Apply early.
The same mistakes made with large amounts later are catastrophic.
The market charges everyone tuition. The only question is when you pay it and how much.
“Bitcoin is more valuable than the nicest, most desirable real estate in your favorite place on Earth — it’s Cyber Manhattan 1,000 years from now.” - Michael Saylor

🍕 HISTORY: 16 years ago, 10,000 $BTC bought two pizzas.
Laszlo Hanyecz’s Bitcointalk post became one of Bitcoin’s first real-world transactions. Today, that 10,000 BTC would be worth over $767M.
If you would have told me 5 years ago that BlackRock’s most successful product would be a Bitcoin ETF, banks would be fighting crypto companies over stable coin yield, the U.S. would have a strategic Bitcoin reserve, hundreds of companies would be on a Bitcoin standard and Michael Saylor almost has a million Bitcoin and price is only $75,000 I would never have believed you.
HODLing $BTC is never easy, especially when everything is pumping and we're sitting double digits below the all-time high. But there is no other asset on earth that is both deflationary and completely beyond the control of any central bank or government. That's the whole point.
🔥 HISTORY: Satoshi Nakamoto sent his final known email on April 23, 2011, saying he had “moved on to other things.”
He said Bitcoin was “in good hands” with Gavin Andresen and the community.
Saying crypto is 'risky' is the laziest take in finance.
The S&P 500 lost 50% twice in a decade.
Your savings account is losing to inflation right now.
Everything is risky.
$39 trillion in debt. $113,000 per citizen. And the meter never stops.
You don't have to be paying attention for it to cost you. You lose purchasing power simply by existing.
Oil spikes. Deficit widens. Dollar quietly bleeds out.
This isn't politics. It's math.
Bitcoin wasn't created because someone had a cool idea. It was created because this was always inevitable.
The only question is whether you're positioned before the crowd figures it out
