Yesterday, we successfully brought together Bitcoin enthusiasts and the Swedish Tax Agency, shedding light on differing views. The agency argues that Bitcoin isn’t recognized as money due to its lack of a central issuer, widespread acceptance as a medium of exchange,

Sweden may move slowly, but when it moves, it moves decisively. And right now, momentum is quietly building.

[BTChick @theBTChick]

I’m alive — just very busy with Bitcoin related things.

Here’s a short update on how Bitcoin adoption is progressing in Sweden 🧵

[BTChick @theBTChick]

Turning a neighbourhood in the country with the world’s oldest central bank and one of the first to experiment with a CBDC into a Bitcoin-friendly area would be unexpected, but it would send a strong statement.

It will take time, but I’m committed.

Great day at Bitcoin Corporate Day in Prague – bridging traditional finance and Bitcoin.

[BTChick @theBTChick]

📍 Whenever you see me in Prague, just assume it’s Bitcoin-related.

How do you book your flight tickets?

[BTChick @theBTChick]

CPI tells you what happened last month.
Money supply tells you what’s coming next.

So the real question is:
Is this really “where it’s supposed to be?”

[BTChick @theBTChick]

Swedish news today headline that inflation came in at 0.9% in September: “It’s exactly where it’s supposed to be.”

But… for as long as I can remember, Sweden has been saying that inflation is “under control.”

[BTChick @theBTChick]

Meanwhile, the money supply has been expanding faster than most people realise.

From 2015 to 2025, Sweden’s money supply has almost doubled. Prices didn’t magically rise: they followed the monetary expansion. It’s basic cause and effect.

[BTChick @theBTChick]

The questions were sharp, the curiosity real — adoption is happening faster than people think.

Spent the morning at Söderberg & Partners, one of the largest investment advisory firms in the Nordics, speaking to their investment department about Bitcoin.

My key takeaway: the knowledge level inside traditional finance is already far ahead of what many expect.

[BTChick @theBTChick]

Grateful to be invited to educate one of the biggest investment advisory firms in the Nordics about Bitcoin.

What should I not miss mentioning?

Happy Bitcoin #whitepaperday

Update from September 2025:

One of the biggest banks in the Nordics - the same bank that forbade its employees from having any personal interest in Bitcoin - now offers Bitcoin ETPs to their customers.

The irony writes itself… however, the world is waking up!

[BTChick @bt_chick]

I just heard from a @Nordea employee – the largest bank in the Nordics with around 28,000 staff – that employees are not allowed to have any personal interest in Bitcoin ??!

Imagine that. In 2025.

[BTChick @bt_chick]

Is there a map of circular Bitcoin economies?

[BTChick @theBTChick]

History doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes.

[BTChick @theBTChick]

Bitcoin represents the opposite idea — a system built on transparency, scarcity, and responsibility !!!

Not free money. Fair money.

[BTChick @theBTChick]

This morning I came across an article in Dagens Nyheter — one of Sweden’s leading newspapers.

It described how years of ultra-low interest rates encouraged households to borrow more, buy more, and stretch their finances further — believing those rates would last.

[BTChick @theBTChick]

But they didn’t.

As rates rise, many families are now struggling to keep up. What was once called “economic stimulus” has become a burden.

The truth is: when central banks manipulate the cost of money, they distort reality. They reward debt, and quietly punish savers.
