#TGFC: Thank God for Coal
"Britain’s National Grid Plc called on a new back-up coal-fired reserve to generate power for the first time, after the market failed to provide enough electricity during the worst supply crunch this winter."
"The grid said on Tuesday afternoon that it would no longer need households to turn down demand."

# Bitcoin-Centric Portfolios
## Sample portfolios that put bitcoin front and center
### Arranged from "Soft" to "Hard"
1. "Largely Liquid"
- 50% bitcoin
- 50% cash
half the volatility, half the gains and half the losses
2. "Cash Flow + Sats Flow"
- 40% bitcoin
- 25% bitcoin miners/home mining
- 25% real estate/rental properties
- 10% cash
income focused, with significant upside in bull markets
3. "Let's Get Physical"
- 50% bitcoin
- 10% bitcoin miners
- 10% gold/silver miners
- 10% oil & gas stocks
- 10% uranium miners
- 7% cash
- 3% gold/silver
goes heavy on hard assets, and commodity and energy producers
4. "Monetary Moissanite*"
- 90% bitcoin
- 7% cash
- 3% gold/silver
nearly as hard of a monetary portfolio as you can get before you arrive at "#GetOnZero" levels
*moissanite ≈ silicon carbide; nearly as hard as diamond - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moissanite
5. "Get On Zero"
- 100% bitcoin
nothing simpler, but prepare for a wild ride
Enjoy!

Thinking about Brian Stoffel's concepts of Anti-Fragile Value Investing and the Long-Term Mindset.
- Notably, he views a #ShortTerm investment as anything less than 3 years.
- #MediumTerm is 3-10 years.
- He aims to retire in 2046, when he turns 65. So he holds things he believe will serve those ends over the #LongTerm (multiple decades).
#Bitcoin is certainly #AntiFragile, and IMHO, a #Value pick as well, especially considering the trajectory. Deep #conviction required to hold for decades, no doubt.
