What Bitcoin has to offer to humanity is unprecedented: instead of society collapsing under inflation, bitcoin will be monetized through monetary debasement, serving as a cushion to elevate humanity to a new level of economic and social consciousness.

You can play w/ our Bitcoin & Real Estate Portfolio Estimator!

It’s designed to help you understand how incorporating Bitcoin into real estate financing can significantly enhance investment performance.

The inclusion of Bitcoin as collateral in property financing can create a more resilient financial system. Real estate, the most widely used collateral, is inflated by monetary expansion. As the bubble may eventually burst, Bitcoin could act as a stabilizer, preventing crises and enabling a smoother transition to a new system.

Hello Nostr🕷️🕸️✌️(proof of Good)

Bitcoin inherently resists its adversaries automatically. Even if one claims to understand Bitcoin yet continues to profit from the fiat system—or if entities within that system attempt to suppress it through shame, laws, or coercion—Bitcoin will achieve its purpose regardless. It operates like a natural firewall, shielding its network from such opposition.

Over time, this resistance financially harms those who attack or ignore Bitcoin, as their ignorance will lead to obsolete business models and missed opportunities to acquire Bitcoin at advantageous prices. In the end, Bitcoin’s resilience ensures its trajectory, while its detractors face self-inflicted consequences.

Bitcoin attracts individuals from all walks of life, but its true essence is grasped only by those who recognize they are part of a network capable of steering humanity toward a brighter future.

Evil will never act for good—and thus, it will never embrace Bitcoin. By design, Bitcoin excludes malevolent forces; it is a system built on proof of Good, where integrity and collaboration prevail.

Those who cling to corruption or exploitation will inevitably reject Bitcoin, for it cannot coexist with their motives. In doing so, they not only forfeit the chance to participate in a transformative technology but also cement their own irrelevance in the coming era.

thank you for your Time 👌✌️🕷️🕸️

Open communication has always been central to fostering innovation, but it is threatened in the modern digital age.

We've been banging the table for our real estate clients to add BTC to their lives for years now. And as we all know it's tough to get people to understand Bitcoin initially.

Anyway we may have cracked this a tad by using what they understand.

We started to share this example and the feedback has been good.

Let's say you have a rental property worth about $750K (yes, that's really a standard CAD fiat price for one in the Greater Toronto Area) that generates $475 in positive cash flow.

Now remember, these investors do not want to sell their real estate (yet!) .... they consider it risky. So we're presenting this:

Take the $475 in cash flow and use it to get a credit line secured against the rental. At 5.7% rate here in Canada that gets you $100K, then buy Bitcoin with it.

You now have a $750K property.

And $100K in BTC.

After 10 years:

Property Value at 7% CAGR (historic rate) = $1,378,844

Bitcoin value at 24% CAGR (low 4-year rolling CAGR) = $693,098

Combined Value = $2,071,943

After 20 years:

Property Value = $2,712,395

Bitcoin Value = $5,956,786

Combined Value = $8,669,181

So for $475/month that they property paid for they totally changed the return on the one rental property.

You almost double the CAGR of property from 7% to 13.75% over 20 years with a simple $475/month credit line payment invested in BTC.

The feedback by some of our most serious investors has been instantly profound, almost like they finally "get it".

Anyway just sharing in case this is useful. nostr:nprofile1qysqjamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwdhhvetjv45kwm3dwd6xzcmt9ehhyecpz3mkzue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduqzqefdtzk2lgg947z8ts87sq562tnam0pn0v4anjvtk9apz8wyehnqweuq9q it's basically a take on what you've been presenting just reworked a tad for a smaller single family home rental that is kicking off some positive cash flow. So thank you for the inspiration here.

We'll have 1,100 investors or so out to a client event in April so we'll test out the messaging further there.

Great! Looking forward to being part of the event. I also have the experience that the ‘Refi’ approach is sth. RE investors grasp!

With the help of Sovereign we’re building a model to help you understand and estimate the positive impact of adding bitcoin to real estate development financing!

We will share the model early next month for feedback 🫡

80 years ago, the land Real Madrid's stadium is built on was purchased for just €0.40/m². Today, the average price per square meter of apartments for sale in central Madrid is over €5,000.

Bitcoin offers the same opportunity now, mirroring the wealth creation real estate brought over the last century.

When I was in an existential crisis in 2015, writing my master’s thesis about Bitcoin, Ross Ulbricht was already in prison. A few years earlier, his actions introduced me to the world of Bitcoin.

There I was, realizing the immense potential of Bitcoin, but also becoming painfully aware of the dangers posed by those who seek to suppress free thinkers in order to protect what Bitcoin threatens. Ross was made an example to silence all of us.

That he is free today, and that the community is stronger than ever, fills me with pride and optimism.

The entrenched power structures can put obstacles in Bitcoin’s way, but they cannot stop it. Wishing Ross all the best as he embraces his freedom. Onwards. 🫡
