Shout-out to the S&P 500 which, since 1959(!), is up a total of 37% relative to #gold and up 41% relative to the US M2 monetary supply.

Said another way, the appreciation of gold, US stocks, and the US M2 monetary supply are all about the same over long periods of time.

Nominal gains are an illusion... 👀

To increase your purchasing power over time, you need to outpace the ever-increasing M2 monetary supply.

You do you, but I recommend #bitcoin.

Hearing "you were right about Bitcoin" from friends hits differently. It’s not an admission—it’s a defeatist shrug.

It means, "You were right, but it’s too late now. I missed it." That attitude is the hardest to hear because it’s not true.

A lot of people think Bitcoin is too good to be true. And when you describe it without thinking, yeah—it does sound that way. A future of sound money, fairness, and freedom? It’s hard to imagine because we’ve been trained to expect disappointment, not hope.

People have been conditioned to be nihilistic about the future. So when Bitcoin offers a way out, it’s easier to dismiss it as "too late" or "not real" than to accept it’s already here.

They think it’s over. They don’t see that it’s barely begun.

You weren’t right then. You’re right now. And you’ll keep being right. It’s not about the past—it’s about waking up to the future.

Happy New Years Nostr 🎉🎊

Happy New Year everyone, let's make it a good one 🧡

Happy New Year, Nostr Fam! 💫

You don't have a reserve of Bitcoin?

Why would you consider it's the most recent Bitcoin you bought that you're selling for the mortgage payment? Why not the Bitcoin you bought 5 years ago?

Bitcoin is fungible.

If you have reserves and earn more that you spend you should be fine.

don't forget that during bear markets you also continue to accumulate as it goes down

Two serious questions:

1. Do you live on a #Bitcoin standard?

2. If so, do you have any regrets?

“With most Americans suitably distracted by the murder of a healthcare executive and drones flying over the US Northeast, the outgoing administration of President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to fire long-range precision missiles made by the US and Britain into Russian territory, is sending as many weapons and as much funding to the Kyiv regime as possible, and even signed off on a $20 billion loan to the besieged country backed by frozen Russian reserve assets.”
