Just received this:
"Hi - I wanted to share a short video from two patients who wanted to personally thank CZ for the difference he has made in their lives.
One is a woman who had life-saving heart valve surgery after years of struggling to breathe, and walk far.
The other is a 17 year old young man who couldn’t open his mouth more than a small gap because of severe jaw disease — he couldn’t speak clearly or eat properly. After surgery in Chiang Mai, he can open his mouth freely now and share his voice again.
This support didn’t just give them treatment — it gave them back their health, dignity, and hope."
I didn't choose or meet the two in the videos. The work is done by the charity organizations shown in the video.
Every little bit helps.
Just got this security warning.
Ledger's Discord admin account was hacked. The scammer falsely claimed a security flaw and urged users to enter their recovery phrases on a phishing site.
Lessons:
1. Never give up your private key recovery phrases no matter who is doing the asking.
2. Social network accounts for a crypto company are often the weakest links.

Stick with fundamentals. Time will be on your side.
A hot market may have many "opportunities" or "quick returns." But it is best to stick with fundamentals.
Have you ever thought to yourself, "I wish I had..."
bought bitcoins early
bought the dip
held
learned about crypto early
ignored FUD
But when the opportunity presents itself again, will you act?
Today is earlier than all the days to come. 🤷♂️
Not financial advice.
A few more points about Bhutan GMC making a crypto Strategic Reserve.
1. It's not just a bitcoin reserve but a crypto one, including ETH and BNB. I believe this is a first, and it sure won't be the last. This signals that Bhutan is open-minded and open to other cryptocurrencies, too. Hint, hint. This is a smart move by the country to attract crypto companies, investments, and innovation.
By the way, the Kingdom of Bhutan has been known for years for mining Bitcoins with clean (excess hydro) energy. By default, it already has a Bitcoin reserve.
2 For BNB, it's validation. This thread 👇 talks about that. I won't get into too much of that.
This also opens the door for BNB (and other crypto) to be included in other countries' National Strategic Reserves.
Forward.
The Bitcoin dominance HTF trend recently flipped bearish after nearly two years in “up-only mode.”
Capital is clearly starting to rotate into altcoins, but we’re not yet in the long-awaited Altseason — this is just a sneak peek of what’s coming.
The party has just started.
Nevertheless, I don’t expect Bitcoin to melt completely without some significant bounces on the way down.
Why?
Because once Bitcoin surges past $100k, it will temporarily regain the spotlight.
However, from now on, altcoins will definitely outperform the big orange shitcoin.
Here’s a potential Bitcoin dominance playbook, along with all the levels I’ll be monitoring going forward — let me know your opinion:
“When riches begin to come they come so quickly, in such great abundance, that one wonders where they have been hiding during all those lean years.”
Now I think you’re starting to understand why I kept talking about the winning season.
All you have to do to be successful in this game is understand market cycles and speculation phases.
You prepare when nobody is paying attention.
You get wealthy when NPCs lose everything.
Natural selection, I guess.
Anyway, now it’s time to really lock in.
The next few months have the potential to change your life.
Stay focused, kings.

📖 If you want to make it, you must become mentally strong, and you must change so you can become a more powerful version of yourself
🔹 Pay attention to your inner monologue
Almost all of us have an inner monologue that follows us through the day, narrating our thoughts and feelings as we go, but have you ever paid conscious attention to it?
A mentally strong person has an inner monologue that speaks with self-assurance and positivity. What does your inner monologue say?
- If you catch it saying things like…
“I don’t have enough time to finish…”, or
“I’m not skilled enough to achieve that…”
Well, it’s time to start making some changes.
Consciously transform these thoughts into…
“I should properly focus so I can work faster” and, “What skills do I need to develop to achieve that?”
Those are far more proactive and far more positive. These will make you keep going, never giving up, and ultimately achieving results most people only dream of. It's real. Believe in it and you shall experience it yourself.
🔹 Don’t let setbacks define you
Setbacks happen. They’re a part of life. Deep down we all know this is true, but we often deny this fact when the setback occurs to us. When faced with adversity, we often become our harshest critics don’t we?
“Nothing ever goes right for me…” or,
“This wouldn’t have happened to someone else..."
Put a stop to those thoughts immediately. If something can be done to mitigate the setback, start working on your solution. If nothing can be done, acknowledge the setback, think about what could have prevented it, and what you can learn from this moving forward. Then, move on. Setbacks do not define you. It’s your response to setbacks that is a true representation of your character.
What’s done is done and you cannot alter the past. To get mentally stronger you have to accept that setbacks happen, and they will happen again no matter what. Even though you cannot alter the past, you can design your future.
🔹 Change what you do professionally, where, and how you do it
Staying put only confirms how mentally weak you actually are. You're scared of change, but you must do it.
People waste their lives in jobs they hate, working with people they don’t like, jobs that won’t make them rich or at least fulfilled, and feeling stuck on a professional hamster wheel where they dread waking up to another day because they have to work.
It’s obvious from a distance, but they don’t see it.
If you’re always in a room full of sh*t, it won’t be long until you no longer notice the smell, but rest assured the sh*t is still there.
🔹 Change what you fuel your mind with
Your mind is your most valuable asset.
Every reward you will get in your life will be constructed first in your mind, so protect that gold mine of yours carefully. The mind is a fertile garden – it will grow anything you wish to plant. If you plant sh*t in it, it will grow sh*t. You should remove garbage from your house for it will fester and lead to disease, and the same happens inside your head.
You need to remove garbage beliefs and ideas that are not contributing to your well-being. This is why I often say to clean your “following” list. This space is filled with garbage that your brain will process if your eyes see. Think about it. You know better than anyone just how much time you regret wasting on endless scrolling through nonsense. Remove the garbage, add a daily dose of wisdom, and your life unlocks.
🔹 Change what you fuel your body with
I'm not going to tell you to eat a salad, but understand that your body would feel different if you changed some of the things you consume.
It turns out that some of you out there are feeling depressed, not knowing that you’re actually just iron deficient. It costs a couple hundred dollars to get all your blood work looked into. They’ll tell you exactly what you’re missing and why you’re feeling the way you are. If you feel tired, if you can’t focus, if you don’t sleep well, if you don’t feel motivated, if life is kind of gloomy, it means that you’re deficient in some chemical your body normally fills you up with, but for some reason, it doesn’t right now.
Then buy the foods that supplement your deficiency to go the natural route, or get the pills if that works better for you. Changing the biochemistry in your body opens you up and allows you to live. You're in charge of EVERYTHING you consume. Consume sh*t content and sh*t food and guess what you'll be?...
A large walking piece of sh*t.
You’ve been running in low battery mode for months now so it's time to charge up. Instead of buying the latest iPhone, invest that money in your health and in your mind. You play games where you gain XP and get your character faster, stronger, and smarter, but you don't do that to yourself? WTF is wrong with you?...
🔹 Change the volume
Nobody ever told you this but unlocking life is actually a simple formula (simplified):
Growth = (How much you do / How quickly you make decisions that impact what you do) x (How effectively you use what you know, the money you have, and the tools at your disposal)
Even if you’re going to make one good decision per year, meaning the time it takes to make a decision is high, you can still see massive growth if you take a lot of action and follow through. If you double the volume of effort and double the number of hours you put into your craft, you will achieve in a year what it would take everyone else two or more.
By year 3 or 4, you’re so far ahead that they can’t catch you. You increase the speed of making decisions as well, so now you’re learning faster.
You invest in yourself, in your education, and in your tools, and all of a sudden your growth is 10 times that of everyone else’s, and they’re looking at you as if you’re an alien.
If you want life to change, you need to change the variables that contribute to it. There’s no unlocking of life without change.
🔹 Dream BIG
The big rewards in life are exclusively reserved for those who dare to dream about their achievements.
This is a skill you have to develop on your own because your parents, your teachers, and society in general lack the ability to dream big.
They lack the fire that is within us. If you possess it, you will understand precisely what i mean.
When you tell people you’re going to be a millionaire or billionaire, they laugh at you. Their understanding of reality doesn’t allow for that kind of dream.
Yet, there are billionaires and millionaires in the world, so why not you?
When you tell people you’re going to write a bestseller, they say it’s impossible. They’ve never written a page in their lives, yet every month people publish bestsellers, so why not you?
People change jobs, friends, relationships, countries, and industries all the time, so why not you?
Once you do, they’ll look at you strangely. They’ll say you changed, like you somehow worked that hard to stay the same.
If you want to unlock the full potential of your life, start with changing yourself for real, or succumb to a life that you actually know it won’t be that great. If that’s enough for you, by all means, go ahead and good luck.
