🚨The Progressive Bitcoiner, Inc welcomes Jason Maier nostr:npub1dc84762hpnp0y4jcvjcgwt8l7sepng93j3hg63hfm80ph6kt82eqktjwqd as our Director of Education 📚
Many of you will know Jason as a teacher, speaker and author of “A Progressive’s Case for Bitcoin.”
Serving on the TPB board, Jason is increasing his involvement with TPB, Inc to lead our education efforts across the organization, including written and media materials, workshops and in person education, and beyond. Given Jason’s track record and expertise teaching and breaking down complex ideas, like Bitcoin, for everyday people, we can think of no one better to lead these efforts! 👏
NEW opinion piece from Will Schweitzer on TPB’s website
“If Democrats lead on market structure, they take the high ground. They protect consumers, promote innovation, and sidestep Trump’s crypto theater. GENIUS can wait.”

Let’s break down Governor Hobbs veto decision on 1025 further. This decision, it turns out, is quite detrimental to Arizonans looking for greater returns on their retirement investments.
Arizonas retirement fund (annualized):
1-Year Return: +9.0%
3-Year Return: +6.1%
5-Year Return: +8.5%
10-Year Return: +7.6%
Bitcoin returns (annualized):
1-Year Return: +153.1%
3-Year Return: +21.93%
5-Year Return: +66.56%
10-Year Return: +79.02%
What is untested about Bitcoin in its 16 year history to $2 trillion market cap and global adoption? What “tests” would Bitcoin need to pass to satisfy the governor? As Bitcoin grows in value, its volatility also decreases (as we’ve seen recently being even less volatile than major stock indexes).
Not to mention, investing in Bitcoin doesn’t carry the same risks as investing in volatile companies dealing with global and political affairs. Bitcoin is an appropriate and responsible savings vehicle for retirement funds and for citizens looking to preserve and protect their wealth.
We hope the governor, and leaders across the United States, see the benefits of Bitcoin, including its particular ability to be a great savings vehicle with its global, hard cap, and secure properties. Too many Democrats are against or on the sidelines still against this asset.
Woah this new primal is slick

Is Bitcoin being “captured” by Wall Street? Is it out of reach for everyday people?
