We call it the halving because the price of #BTC usually gets cut in half.

What did you guys think it meant?

[Stack Hodler @stackhodler]

I remember when people panic-sold #Bitcoin because Covid-19 was the end of the world.

Many of us created generational wealth by buying that fear right before the 2020 halving.

The drop from $10K -> $4K was a gift I'll never forget.

And history feels like it's starting to rhyme.

War is inflationary and will be paid for via debasement.

In fact, it provides a convenient excuse to monetize debt.

Good luck to all bond holders and Bitcoin panic sellers.

You're going to need it.

@BitX_Brc20 Not time. Make it by % of tokens sold.

This is the best speech ever given at #Davos. If only we could elect a President like @JMilei here in the United States. The problem is we don't even have any candidates anywhere close to his caliber.

@BullionStar @GoldEagleCom ...but #gold can be a substitute for $BTC #bitcoin 💪🏼

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

@gruppe5 It’s not just wishful thinking. It is already happening. We are already piloting such a solution in various African counties at @ClinqGold. Not all CBs are the same. Developing countries see value in #AntiInflationary assets.

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

In my opinion, an optimal institutional-level #DigitalCurrency should tick the following boxes:

✅ #AntiInflationary by being backed by real assets like #Gold through #Tokenization.
✅ #Interchangeable by being part of a #MonetaryUnion of #CBDC with the same underlying asset.

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

✅ Complimentary. Never replace local currency. Learn from the #EUR disaster. There are sound economic reasons for a local, inflatable currency. Both can co-exist and be used for their purposes.

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

✅ #Blockchain-based for full #Transparency, maximal #Trust through absolute rule of immutable law.
✅ #Accountability through effective separation of powers within the multilateral #Governance system. A triangle of rights and obligations between auditors, issuers, and vaults.

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

2) Replacing local currencies? The #Euro's challenges are a cautionary tale. Different economic stages in a union call for tailored solutions, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

Reflecting on last August's #BRICS event in #SouthAfrica: a single currency seems off the table for now, #gold-backed or otherwise. Two key hurdles: 1) No consensus on which central bank should issue it—lack of a #governance framework.

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

Our approach brings two major advantages: 1) #Independence in cross-border trading from traditional systems like #SWIFT and $USD. 2) A multi-issuer-governed system for enhanced fairness and integrity. It's a step towards a more accountable and independent digital economy.

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

I believe #CBDCs shouldn't be just a central bank thing. At @ClinqGold, we're pioneering a new path where entities with gold reserves can issue digital currency, leveraging #blockchain. This approach could redefine the digital currency landscape.

[Roman Semko @romansemko]

Picture this: a #gold miner or #MoMo operators like @mntza, @airtelafrica, or @orangeafrica as a #DigitalCurrency issuer. It's like creating a gold-backed digital #Euro, offering stability without the drawbacks—exciting possibilities for the future of #FinTech
