Personal note on the Bitcoin cycle:

Based on historical patterns and previous market cycles, it is plausible that Bitcoin will trade in the range of $30,000 to $45,000, or possibly around $45,000 to $60,000, during 2026 and 2027.

In 2028 and 2029, there is a likelihood of reaching a new all-time high, potentially in the range of $150,000 to $180,000, or even $210,000 to $240,000.

This is not a purchase or investment recommendation, but merely a personal note for future reference.

Let’s see how it unfolds. 🍿

With the #Bitcoin conference getting kicked off and Bitcoin Treasuries seemingly destined for the moon, there is a lot to be excited about. This moment in time feels so Orwellian and dystopian.

I’m pretty liberal in some ways. I was raised by a single mom. My father died in Vietnam, and my father figure was my grandfather. He was of the Greatest Generation. They were willing to put aside their own needs for the greater good. He went from enlisted in the Army Air Force to a Major in the USAF. He bombed the beaches of Normandy, and flew in Korea. He thought Trump was a fool. He didn’t see what we can see now. He taught me about guns. (This is his picture on his 100th Birthday in his original uniform) He insisted he was just doing his job. The heroes didn't make it.

I’ve never thought anyone needed a gun until now.

I’m pretty sure we are headed for pure chaos. I don’t know how it comes, but I have thoughts. It is scary. But, at the same time, I know I won’t have to go through it all, so I can really look at it and Yell FIRE from the top of my lungs while finding the entire thing utterly fascinating to watch unfold and securing my family through everything precautionary measure we should take.

I was talking with my wife last night. I was remembering how back in the 2010’s we had charts that said, “Somewhere about 2025 the financial situation gets dire.” Even with all the variables, COVID, Trump, Israel, Ukraine, those charts were right. Anyone that is a nocoiner doesn’t get it. That is most people.

I feel as if my entire life is a crescendo. This condition being in the final stage of a 30-year progression at this time just makes it all the more surreal. These last three years have been a lot. At first, I tried to bring it all together in a document and keep detailed track of everything changing. No one believed me and it wear so much on one to constantly be re-reading and revising and appending such a large document. If it was a book, it would be ok, but it is my life and the things I had to constantly review we so painful.

So now, I just try to document the changes as they occur and persevere. It is a great release to just decide to be happy no matter how much you are going through. Just keep doing every normal thing you can do while you can.

What the hell, folks? I get my Full Node up and running after many years of hodling. Grok walked me through everything on Ubuntu and it was my first time in Linux.

So, I figure there has to be a LOT of accessible full nodes, right? I find where to look.

No! There are only 22313 in the world.

Only 2300 or so in the whole US (at least the traceable ones).

Why are you not running a full node? Just spend $200 on a Nucbox and have Grok walk you through it.
