Here's what happened this year for those who missed it:
@_pretyflaco I love listening to Andreas.
He is able to articulate his reasoning so clearly. And simply.
I'm wondering if they will ever be able to eradicate cash in the informal settlements.
A trillion dollars of prime Florida real estate needs to be repriced.
How much are coastal properties worth in a world where insurers suddenly refuse to insure, or jack up premiums 10x?
Families that stored the majority of their wealth in their homes are facing massive losses.
Homes are not designed to store wealth long-term. They're designed to be enjoyed and lived in.
And yet homes are one of the most popular savings vehicles in the world.
Bitcoin is designed to store value.
"But Bitcoin isn't tangible!"
You mean it can't be flooded by the ocean or blown apart by a tornado?
And I can just hold it for zero cost without paying property tax or 1% of it's value in insurance each year?
Sounds pretty great to me.
A lot of people seem to have forgotten that cold stored Bitcoin is the king of assets.
But something tells me they'll be reminded soon.

l loved visiting that shop.
Uxolo! Nosihle and Vuyisa, sending prayers to soothe your hearts.
Buildings can be built back, sometimes better than before.
But your hearts will take longer to heal.
Take comfort from the btc community reaching out. 🧡
@fairytour11@bambkb Her name is Ashayana. Google Keylontic Sciences.
There are some very old you tube vida of her giving lectures. She bent my head. Believe she has passed.
No, this is not a photo of homeless people!
This was taken 2weeks ago outside the UIF offices in Cape Town. Queues start at 2AM to secure a place in front of the line. They only issue numbers to the first 15 people. #TheWesternCapeWorks@alanwinde@CityofCT@geordinhl WTF?
Kenya is playing a dangerous game with these taxes.
16% on bread
20% on airtime and internet
20% to move your money (mobile or bank)
20% on gross turnover for Amazon, Google, Netflix, etc (called an “Economic Significance Presence Tax”)
2.5% annual value of vehicle tax
There’s a reason Kenyans nicknamed Ruto ‘Zakayo’ the Kiswahili translation of the Biblical tax collector Zacchaeus.
