Micropayments never worked on the old rails. With Bitcoin I can send a fraction of a penny anywhere. Pay per article, not per subscription. This is what's coming.

Bitcoin is a four-sided network effect: Users. Merchants. Miners. Developers. Each side's self-interest makes the others stronger. How can challengers compete with this?

Andreessen's point on fees stuck with me. Cards take 2-3% of every sale. Merchants turn away 5-10% of orders over fraud flags. Bitcoin payments cut out both problems. Think about how much money that is worldwide.

Bitcoin is a digital bearer instrument. I can send value to anyone. No bank. No approval. No chargebacks. Digital cash like that never existed before.

65 MILLION NEW $BTC OWNERS, ONLY 21M COINS. MICHAEL SAYLOR COULD START IT. What if Saylor committed $100 million to give every American newborn Bitcoin? At $82K per BTC: • 25,000 sats per child ($20.50). • 3.6M new owners annually. • $74M funds the first year. • 65M potential owners over 18 years. Saylor starts it and other Bitcoin billionaires and companies keep it going. The BTC stays locked until age 18. Now imagine millions of parents learning about Bitcoin, buying more for their children, and raising an entire generation that grows up owning it. That's the real opportunity. Not the initial $100 million. It's creating a self-reinforcing adoption cycle with millions of families. 65 million new owners competing for an asset capped at 21 million coins. The most bullish thing Saylor could do for Bitcoin might be giving some away. @saylor, what if giving Bitcoin to the next generation became the largest adoption initiative in Bitcoin history? @saylor @Strategy @elonmusk @MichaelDell

Inflation is how we ended up in a world where you can make more money than your parents and afford less. We’ve never been better at producing things. Yet somehow, buying a home, raising a family, and saving for the future have become harder. Something is broken.

Bitcoin solved the Byzantine Generals Problem: how strangers agree on the truth over a network no one trusts. It's computer science and math first, money second.

I reread Marc Andreessen's 2014 essay on Bitcoin. He compared it to PCs in 1975 and the Internet in 1993: mocked by elites, loved by nerds, obvious only in hindsight. History repeating itself?

I stopped asking anyone to just trust me with my money. Don't trust. Verify. Run a node. Hold my keys. Choosing what's real turned out to be the easier path.

Am I the only one who understands there isn’t a lot of Bitcoin left for institutions / corporations? Do you know what that means for future price?

Everyone says they are going to borrow against their BTC. Tell me which platforms you trust to hold your BTC while you borrow? I think most people are BSing because they never say WHERE they are giving up custody to take out loans. I don’t believe most Bitcoiners will give up custody to “borrow” against it.

France burning. Am I the only one who saw the images and realized it's mostly because their fiat money is broken?

Cash App is reportedly building a way to let users lock in today's bitcoin price and pay over time, making it easier than ever to become a wholecoiner.

Bitcoin doesn't care about narratives. Every transaction, every block, every rule is open for anyone to verify. After years of trusting institutions, that kind of honesty is a relief.

The more I learned about Bitcoin, the more I saw how much of the old system depended on me not looking closely. Honesty is built into the code. Opacity is built into everything else. Notice how few people ever question our monetary system?

Fiat taught me to accept a story about money that never quite made sense. Inflation is "normal." Debasement is "policy." Learning Bitcoin helped me see through the matrix.

I used to take the financial system at its word, even when the numbers didn't add up. Bitcoin gave me something I never had: a ledger I can verify myself. Truth I can check beats trust I'm told to accept.
