I run a small business as a true one-man army, handling everything on my own. Using Codex with weekly routines has brought me much closer to building a fully automated business - just like the dream I had five years ago @thsottiaux
Another reset for our Codex and ChatGPT Work users. Actually hit 9M active users way earlier today, but then got distracted by the approximately millions of things the team is doing to keep the systems up and reliable.
Should have that sweet 100% weekly usage limit back in a few minutes. Go be your productive self and close twitter. Shoo!
Bitcoin is Freedom
I spent the last few weeks in my motherland, Vietnam. The country has transformed since my family escaped in 1978. It is more prosperous, energetic, and ambitious than the Vietnam I left behind. A young population, rising investment, and global aspiration have created extraordinary momentum.
And yet one thing remains clear. For many in Vietnam, the ultimate dream is still America. And if they cannot make it to America, they want to wear American brands, eat American food, listen to American music, and exude American confidence.
My trip to Vietnam reminded me of this, and the World Cup has made it visible on a global stage. America remains not only a country people admire, but a place people still want to reach, represent, and belong to.
The United States remains the land of the free, the Wild Wild West, and the home of the American Dream. Walmart and Waffle House. Boston and Austin. Silicon Valley and Wall Street. A country where people can still rise from welfare to extraordinary success through hard work, ingenuity, risk taking, and some luck.
My family experienced that promise directly. We arrived in America as refugees, sponsored by a Catholic church in Syracuse, New York. We received public assistance, food stamps, and free school lunches. My father worked three jobs. We lived frugally and dealt with poverty and racism. America was not easy, but it was open. It gave us a system where effort, education, entrepreneurship, and perseverance could compound.
This is America. The world still aspires to be like us.
What has made America successful over the last 250 years is not accidental. It is a principled Constitution, geographic scale, abundant resources, and a culture of liberty, capitalism, entrepreneurship, and reinvention. Other nations try to replicate the recipe, but often waver. Interventionism, bureaucracy, corruption, and ego get in the way.
Which brings me to Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is the United States of money. It aspires to do for money what the American Constitution aspired to do for government: create a system governed by transparent rules rather than the discretion of individuals. Built on a principled white paper, digitally enforced scarcity, and proof of work, Bitcoin is digital capital governed by code, energy, and consensus.
But beyond that, Bitcoin is hope.
It provides hope for those who have worked hard for their money and want to protect it from monetary inflation. It provides hope for those born in countries without reliable rule of law or economic freedoms. It provides hope for anyone seeking protection, opportunity, and a form of property that does not depend on geography, politics, or permission.
I was born in the year of America’s bicentennial. Fifty years later, the future of American dominance is being questioned. I have no question. The United States of America is the greatest country in the world.
My life is proof of what America makes possible. I left Vietnam as a refugee, grew up poor in America, built a career through education and hard work, and now have a wonderful wife and three children. That is the American Dream to me. It is not just wealth. It is freedom, family, opportunity, and the ability to determine your own future.
That is also why Bitcoin resonated with me. I found Bitcoin because it reflected the same principles that shaped my life: clear rules, individual sovereignty, property rights, resilience, open competition, and long-term conviction.
America gave my family freedom through a country. Bitcoin offers individuals monetary freedom through a network. One opened the door for me. The other opens a door for anyone, anywhere, to protect the fruits of their labor.
That is why Bitcoin is freedom.
One thing many beginners don’t understand is that not all coins move the same way.
Some projects, such as $LAB and $RAVE, have teams or market makers that control almost the entire circulating supply. In these cases, price no longer follows natural supply and demand. Instead, it moves in whatever way makes them the most money. They care far more about long/short positioning, liquidity, and where the crowd places their stop losses than about technical analysis.
If you don’t have enough experience yet, stay away from these kinds of coins. Winning is often just luck, while losing can happen very quickly.
On the other hand, projects that have been listed for years with tokens distributed across many holders, such as $SYN, can only be manipulated to a certain extent. Market makers can still influence the price, but pushing it too far becomes extremely expensive.
Always remember this:
Market makers are not gods. Their goal is the same as ours: buy low, sell high, and maximize profits.
Once you understand how they make money, you’ll stop fighting them and start trading with the flow instead.
Crypto is a manipulated market, but that doesn’t mean retail traders can’t make money.
In fact, we have an advantage that market makers will never have.
They manage hundreds of millions of dollars. They can’t enter or exit positions freely, and they can’t completely change their strategy within seconds.
We can.
We can stay out of the market when conditions aren’t favorable. We can cut our losses immediately when we’re wrong. We can wait weeks for a high-probability setup. We can enter and exit positions within seconds without moving the market.
That’s the biggest advantage retail traders have.
Don’t try to become a market maker.
Use the advantages that only retail traders possess.
If you have the knowledge, discipline, and patience, you can make serious money in crypto, even in a manipulated market.
Never forget that.
