If anyone wants to own some silver, getting some Geiger Edelmetalle 100g bars seems like a reasonable way to do it, especially if you are into collecting

The free market rewards savers.
In 2008/2009, if it wasn’t for gov intervention, the price of houses would have fallen from average 300k down to less than 70k.
The savers could have brought four houses and the rest would have been history.
Similarly, there will be period when bitcoin crashes and it will be transferred from weak hands to strong hands.

This rally in btc and the general markets is going to be very hated.
Consensus is bearish, this is the time to be a pig.
Bitcoin and Microstrategy were so resilient during the tariff correction, completely surprised. Speaks volumes about how bullish this is for the coming months…

Amazing can design. It is coconut milk. Very tasty too.

Trumps tariffs will only encourage more companies to buy bitcoin on their balance sheet.
I’m not talking about American companies, I’m talking about all companies around the world.

Service to others is the ultimate goal
The great investor Sir John Templeton realised towards to the end of his life that the greatest wealth and joy is in selfless service
Realisation that we are all one
There is no they, just we
It can be as simple as:
Holding the door for someone
Helping the elderly
Sharing a smile

Monday Morning Prayer:
O Great Architect of the Digital Cosmos,
We offer our humble praise to the Cypherpunks, guardians of privacy and champions of liberty.
Blessed are they, who wield cryptography as a shield against the mighty oppressors,
Who labor tirelessly to protect the meek and preserve the sanctity of private property in this boundless digital realm.
May their wisdom guide us through the labyrinth of surveillance,
And their relentless pursuit of decentralization illuminate the path to freedom.
Grant them strength to resist the forces that seek to shackle our voices,
And courage to defend the sacred right to anonymity against all adversaries.
In their code lies salvation; in their vision, a future unchained.
Let their works be as eternal as the stars above,
And their duty forever honored by those who cherish liberty.

I love how Saylor frames the movement of asset prices using physics terminology.
He uses words like oscillator to describe volatility.
I never learnt volatility at school, but everyone learnt and experimented with various oscillators (sound, electric current, etc..)
This is how Saylor reqwires your brain to understand and withstand volatility.
Even after listening to hours of Buffet and Munger, many still can’t hold on to an asset amidst intense Volatility.
But Saylor somehow finds a way to teach you the secrets.
He is the Steve Jobs of the capital and financial markets, a very talented story teller.

Great article about how Bitcoin solves the clean energy problem and provides electricity to villagers in Africa
“Every day we were wasting over half of the energy we could generate which also meant we're not earning from that to meet our operating expenses. We needed a major user of power in the area and that's where the game-changing partnership with Gridless came in," Daniel says.
The bitcoin mine now accounts for around 30% of the plant's revenue allowing them to keep the prices down for the local town.”

How to borrow at 4% and invest into bitcoin ETF (with a cap)
IBIT etf tracks Bitcoin
We can use the options market to obtain the equivalent of an interest only loan, but without having to payback the notional value of the loan.
I use Leaps on IBIT. These are call options for Jan 2027
I like call spreads because it enables me to reduce my premium
Long call Jan 27 at $48
Short call Jan 27 at $60
Net premium: $350
This position gives you long exposure to Bitcoin, but it is capped at $60.
The premium is the max interest only expense all the way up to expiry Jan 27.
This premium expense equates to 4% interest.
I use other people’s money (the options market) to go long bitcoin from $48 to $60.

Why the options market is under pricing MSTR Leap calls ? Does Bitcoin break the Black Scholes model ?
There is not much written on this subject yet, but I found something on Reddit and it definitely is thought provoking.
When I look at Leap call options on MSTR and look at the “out of the money” strikes, there is an element of underpricing happening.

How to get cheaper Bullish Leap Call Spreads on MSTR:
Here’s how I snag bullish leap call spreads on MSTR without breaking the bank:
Low-Cost Trick: I use a little cash to buy call spreads—long a call, short a higher strike call. Caps my upside but slashes my cost. Max loss? Just the net premium—sweet dreams guaranteed!
Leaps Only: Skip short-term stuff—I grab Leaps (12+ months, like Jun 2026).
More time, more fun, and MSTR’s wild swings often tank the short call’s value. Close it, and boom: a cheap naked long call!
Pricing Perk: Leaps on MSTR are mispriced
Black-Scholes can’t handle 45% yearly gains. Using black scholes model on btc assets is like trying to race a rocket with a Ford Mondeo.
Options guru Josh Mandel says selling naked MSTR calls is a firing offense. Volatility’s our edge!
Less cash, big potential.

AI Agents & Bitcoin: The Wild Future Awaits!
Get ready—2025’s about to get crazy!
AI agents are stepping up, and it’s gonna be a blast to watch.
Here’s the scoop, short and sweet:
AI on the Move: This year, AI buddies start running tasks like pros. Soon, they’ll be solo stars, chasing goals we toss their way.
Problem-Solving Party: They’ll hit roadblocks—think limited cash or tools—and need to hustle. Imagine an AI needing a local permit to conduct some work. Cash, please!
Wallet Time: At first, big shots (investors, companies) will fund them. But as these AIs multiply like rabbits, that won’t cut it.
Bitcoin to the Rescue: They’ll mine Bitcoin to stack their own coins! Mining’s tough, but smart AIs can slash costs using nature’s juice (sun, wind) or leftover factory energy.
Its not hard for an AI agent to instruct a drone to find natural sources of energy (solar, hydro etc…)
The agents will order the required hardware and instruct humanoids to construct and build autonomously.
Energy Boom: See the magic? AI mining BTC could flood us with cheap power—way easier than fixing your leaky sink!
Picture it: AI agents digging for digital gold, powering up the world.
Wild, right? Let’s cheer them on!

Want to know how to use “Proof of work” to help manage your kids ?
When my kids ask for something, a sweet, a toy, screentime, etc… I respond by asking them to complete a proof of work task. It rewires their brain and makes them understand that anything fun should be preceded by proof of work. Here are some examples:
1. Read a chapter from a book
2. Vigorous exercise.
3. Maths sums
4. Read an article
5. Write a couple of paragraphs on a topic
6. 5k steps
Etc….

It recently occurred to me that a lot of this unexpected downward pressure on bitcoin could be investors dumping because of Trump and Elon
If very many have stopped using X since Elon took over, I can understand why very many are dumping bitcoin now…
Look at the scenes in America, Tesla’s getting torched etc…
This too shall pass…
As much as we all want btc to rally here given the super bullish fundamentals, let’s look at the chart…
That downtrend line needs to be respected.
It is important to have a plan for when/if the price makes new lows below £60k.
Have an open mind…
Understand that bitcoin is super volatile and it will try to shake you out (unintentionally of course)
Always plan for the unexpected
