What’s funny is that people labeled me a perma bear just because I was bearish for 8 months.
Now that I’ve flipped bullish after $BTC retraced from 126K to 59K, people seem surprised that I’m not like the other accounts on this app.
I’m here to make money, not defend a narrative. When the market changes, I change. I flip when necessary.
I guess some of you thought calling the top was just a fluke or a lucky guess. And when I catch the move to 160K, I’m sure some of you will call that luck too.

CFTC guidance advances Bitcoin capital markets: 24/7 trading, BTC collateral, perpetual futures, options, and regulated access. Good for $BTC holders, powers the $MSTR engine, and supports the rise of $STRC as Bitcoin-backed Digital Credit.
Prompt:
“Create a 3-of-4 wallet. After 2 years, it becomes 2-of-4. After 5 years, it becomes 1-of-4.”
What this is:
A decaying multisig created with an AI agent using Nunchuk CLI + Agent Skills.
No Miniscript knowledge needed.
It starts as 3-of-4.
After 2 years, it becomes 2-of-4.
After 5 years, any 1 of the 4 keys can spend.
@TFTC21@Nneuman I just had to put a red line here so people could understand that when above the red line they DID have enough on-hand for deposits…and it’s only maybe 15% of the time lol
Martti Malmi was the second person to commit code to Bitcoin.
He answered Satoshi on the cypherpunk mailing list in May 2009 and built https://t.co/2KGpmPQieh. He stuck around through 2011, then moved up the privacy stack and never stopped building. Working on Iris, contributions across the Nostr ecosystem, and a steady output of open-source privacy tooling.
Today he shipped a new version of Nostr VPN. Open-source mesh routing. No company you have to trust. No country whose laws you have to obey to connect to the internet.
Same architectural pattern as Bitcoin. Replace the company with a protocol. Replace the gatekeeper with math.
Every traditional VPN routes your traffic through a server owned by a corporation that filed paperwork in some jurisdiction. That corporation can be served, sold, or coerced.
Sovereignty is a stack. Bitcoin is the money layer. Nostr is the speech layer. A mesh VPN is the network layer. The same hands have been building all three for fifteen years.
The work continues. Quietly. Without permission.

Is it really permissionless if your unilateral exit costs more than the value extracted from the layer 2?
Is it really self custody if it's a closed source wallet that auto updates?
Is it really unconfiscatable if your seed words are on a piece of paper in your desk?
Meanwhile, incoming Fed Chair Kevin Warsh wants to change the Fed's primary inflation gauge from Core PCE (currently 3.20%, excluding food/energy, LOL) to Trimmed Mean PCE (2.36%, excluding extreme monthly price swings, LOLOL).
The money is fake. They print it from nothing. The metrics they use to measure the decreasing value of the money are also fake.
They are stealing from you through monetary inflation, and they are lying to you about it.
They speak in passive tones about the "cost of living" going up, as though it happens by magic.
They tell you "2% inflation" is their target, yet they constantly change the gauge by which they measure price inflation.
But even the 2% target is an arbitrary number. Central banks around the world adopted it from the Central Bank of New Zealand, who made it up in the 1990s. The Federal Reserve didn't formally adopt it until 2012 under Bernanke.
"2% inflation" has no basis in any sort of economic reality, but it is the perfect amount to steal from the populace each and every year without them noticing the loss of purchasing power on a short time horizon. On a longer time horizon, it is quite obvious, but the damage is already done.
Central banks around the world explicitly target 2% theft of your purchasing power per year. Everything gets a little more expensive year after year after year. Sometimes things get a lot more expensive. Then the central banks just change the gauge by which they measure the theft and carry on as if nothing happened.
But everything should be getting cheaper every single year, not more expensive. Technology is naturally deflationary. The natural state of the free market is deflation, not inflation (@JeffBooth).
Once you understand this, you realize just how bad the theft truly is... They are not just stealing the +2% above zero inflation, they are stealing the multiple percentage points of deflation as well. They are stealing the gain of purchasing power you should realize every single year, and leaving you with a loss in purchasing power.
“It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.”
Every government / central bank in the world must continue to debase their currency, or the entire house of cards will come tumbling down.
There is only one absolutely finite asset in the world that can protect you from the theft of fiat monetary debasement.
