Nostr is my forever home and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. 🤌🏻

Honestly I’d love a Bitcoin flash crash down to $58k for old time’s sake…

I always become so greedy when orange coin dips

Thought experiment.

Option # 1

Let’s say you have 10 bitcoin and we hit 2 million in the next few years.

You’re tempted so you sell it for 20 million dollars.

After taxes you’re be left with 16MM.

Which you use to comfortably generate 1.2MM a year in the tradfi markets.

So you take the money and retire.

Bitcoin crashes 60% back to 800k.

For a few years you feel like a genius. You enjoy your new rich person lifestyle.

You even buy back a few bitcoin. 2 to be exact. 20% of what you used to have.

Then bitcoin rises over the next decade to be worth 50 million per coin.

You’re worth 120 million now. And you decide to sell a little over half a coin and upgrade your lifestyle again to be able to generate an additional 2 million a year.

You’re now on paper worth 120 million, you generate 3.2 million a year (266k a month) and you’ve been largely stress free for the last decade.

Your kids will inherit roughly 1.62 bitcoin from you upon your death.

You have some level of regret about not hodling through, but you’ve been largely stress free and the mental health benefit was worth it in your mind.

Vs.

Option # 2

You have the same 10 bitcoin but you Hodl them.

Your stress levels are persistently higher.

You also decide to retire when Bitcoin hits 2 mil, but you decide to do so in bitcoin terms.

Your plan is to sell a little bitcoin as needed in order to fund your lifestyle.

This is roughly 1-3 million sats a month. Depending on bitcoin price.

Over the course of 10 years you end up selling or spending 2.4 bitcoin and are still left worth 7.6btc when bitcoin reaches 50 million.

Your net worth is 380 million.

You’ve reduced your lifestyle in bitcoin terms down to a million sats a month. (500k) or 6 million per year. You’re 46, Assuming you live until you’re 90 you will pass down 2.32 bitcoin to your kids.

You have no regrets about the way you played it, but your stress was consistently higher and there were a few scary months along the way.

Which option do you choose?

1 or 2?

It’s my 29th birthday. Not afraid to admit I’m a little scared. Actually, a lot scared. But mostly excited. I just really don’t want to fuck up this ‘one wild and precious life’ I have. Would love a hug, if you’ve got one to spare ❤️‍🔥

‘Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment’

— Rumi

I’ve not much cleverness to sell, but I am hoping for quite a bit of bewilderment this coming year.

Adventure

Less phone time

Fall in love

Learning

Heal my scary hands - getting there

Eurostar to Paris - see Eiffel Tower

Stretch more

Music

Maybe another shooting star? I hope

Sex

Career

Family time

Travel

Slow dancing

Abundance of sex

Seriously, mind blowing intense sex

Try Crème Brûlée

Read 30 books

Finish a crossword without Google

Then celebrate with more sex

Some of my year ahead 👆❤️‍🔥🙏🏽 hopefully

Wishing you all a beautiful year ahead too 🫂 I know it’s a bit early, but still

We’ll be living in a world with a quarter million dollar bitcoin soon.

Then half a million.

Then a million.

It’s going to happen.
