Bitcoin is not crypto.
Crypto is digital, but it’s not money, as it lacks nearly every meaningful feature of Bitcoin or sound money. Crypto is made with centralized tradable digital tokens, not a monetary system.
They are as different as gold is to beanie babies.
Success doesn’t truly make us happier. Why?
Our neurobiology is wired for progress, not arrival. The dopamine system rewards the pursuit. Once a goal is reached, the brain resets and the target moves.
It’s what @arthurbrooks calls the “striver’s curse.” You work relentlessly toward a goal believing it will bring lasting satisfaction, but when you get there, the feeling fades quickly. The trap is thinking the answer is more (more success, money, weight loss, etc).
A better framework: Satisfaction = what you have ÷ what you want.
Most people try to increase the numerator. But the more powerful lever is reducing the denominator (wanting less).
MUST WATCH: Robert Breedlove explains how $6 trillion of new money in 2020 equals 100 million years of stolen labor, or 2 million human lifetimes.
One of the clearest metaphors for inflation ever given.
🚨🚨SHORT SELLING IS USED AGAINST THE PUBLIC 🚨🚨
Most of the public don't know about Short Selling and they certainly don't know about Naked Short Selling.
You buy a stock in good faith through a broker what you don't know is you are probably buying an IOU and maybe the Broker delivers it in the future and maybe they don't. But they still keep your money and send you a fraudulent statement every month.
Then they decide to Naked Short without locating a share. This creates COUNTERFEITING SHARES artificially diluting with an unlimited amount of counterfeits.
Driving your investment into the ground.
But the SEC is there to protect you right 🤔
Sad truth is they don't enforce any rules and they certainly don't protect the public.

@Helios_Movement Nice post. Could also consider swapping out nattokinase for lumbrokinase.. it's quite superior in nearly every way from what I understand
He says an ETH super cycle is inevitable, but then he invests our $200mil in MrBeast instead. If he truly believes the super cycle is coming, that capital should have gone into ETH. Lee can try to explain it, but it feels very distracting and unfocused, especially since ETH’s price depends far more on Bitcoin than anything else.
You’re all in and that’s commendable, but your projections aren’t grounded in true condiutions. At mnav ≈ 1, the common has lost all ATM magic. There’s nothing left on the bone right now. At this level, once you include the issuance costs and slippage, expected btc per share accretion from the common is near zero and then turns negative as premium compresses or execution drags. And your projection only holds if btc pricing stays flat for the next year, which wouldn't be a great outcome. The ~5% underwriting expense is a real, growing drag, and the you seem to be ignoring time this takes, opportunity cost, and cumulative dilution. You’re very good at seeing upside, love your enthusiasm and I hope you’re right. But let’s put some firm ground under it. This isn’t just about hoping for blue skies, it’s about accounting for the clouds (lots of them) along the way.
Today we celebrate Satoshi Nakamoto.
But let's not forget the cryptographers
and the cypherpunks who took decades
to build the bricks for Bitcoin.

@realwolfofdubai@FunOfInvesting And what happens if eth tanks and bmnr is $9, are they gonna do a reverse split? At this time this conversation makes no sense.
@FunOfInvesting I like the BMNR team, but this feels like too much, too fast. It’s the first time I’ve genuinely paused and questioned the direction. Lee’s incentives not being tied to ETH per share are a red flag to me. Show me the incentives, and I’ll show you the outcome.
