In our lifetimes, owning 1 Bitcoin will be seen as generational wealth. Picture this: you could buy one now for $98,000, but instead, you are spending that on cars, goods, and other items that lose value over time. Some people make that choice. Nuts.

Bitcoin is young people’s Money.

You don’t fade young people.

You follow them, the earlier the better.

Bitcoin is their Asset Class and it will continue to outperform fiat.

2025 is the year.

Exactly.

Agreed. It’s crazy how many people simply accept it as a natural law that the State has control of it.

This is a HUGE deal and will be replicated in the US. This will allow hedge funds and other entities to stay leveraged and short and not blow up.

The start of the Fed in 1913, and thus fractional banking, gets too much of the blame. These things were necessary because of something else that was enacted in 1913, the federal income tax. The federal income tax created the need for inflation and the central bank was the necessary tool to fill that need.

People don’t value USD (it is worthless after all) and the young have a strong desire to be a part of something/anything which leads them to do a silly thing. It makes them feel like they are protesting. “Fight the man!”either they will realize they have more autonomy and will put their power to more productive uses (bitcoin) or will end in generational despair.

So the Bank of England decided to play financial hide and seek with our money now? They'll keep the names of floundering pension funds, insurers, and hedge funds under wraps because, apparently, we peasants can't handle knowing which big shots are on the brink of collapse. Nothing says "trust us" like secrecy, right?

What could go wrong???

I wonder how much true net inflows did it take to get there….

Today, we celebrate Bitcoin Genesis Block Day, marking the anniversary of the very first block in the Bitcoin blockchain, mined on January 3, 2009. This pivotal moment was when Satoshi Nakamoto brought the revolutionary idea of a decentralized currency to life, embedding a message from that day's Times newspaper into the blockchain: "Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks."

This block not only launched Bitcoin but also symbolized a new era of financial sovereignty, challenging traditional banking systems and introducing the world to blockchain technology. Let's reflect on how far we've come from this single block to a network that now underpins a global economy of digital assets. Happy Genesis Block Day to all Bitcoiners!

LFG!

Is having one out of every million enough?

I guess this is the question to ask with every purchase big and small. We all draw a line, it’s just a matter of where.

I find it funny that I have a reputation of being “frugal” in my circle because I have managed to invest/save a decent amount. Even though people don’t know how much I have saved, but because I have encouraged them to save. While my family has not lived to our means we have never been deprived and embarrassingly have lived a quite luxurious life imo. I could’ve stacked a lot more but have far surpassed my original stacking goal.

GM, Bitcoiners.

We're standing at the edge of history, watching the old world crumble under its own weight. Fiat currencies are inflating like balloons at a kid's birthday party, but guess what? They're not the ones that will fly to the moon.

Bitcoin, on the other hand, is your ticket out. The harder they try to bury it with regulation, the stronger it grows. Remember, they tried to kill Satoshi's vision with Mt. Gox, with Bitfinex, with every FUD campaign under the sun. But here we are, with BTC not just surviving but thriving.

Look at the macro environment - central banks are printing money like there's no tomorrow, but there's a tomorrow coming, and it's dressed in digital gold. The dollar's strength? Temporary. Bitcoin's strength? Timeless. While they're busy with their monetary gymnastics, we're stacking sats, securing our financial future.

BlackRock, Fidelity, they're all in on BTC now. They see what we've known all along - Bitcoin isn't just another asset; it's the asset. It's the only asset with a fixed supply in a world where everything else increases in quantity but decreases in value.

And for those of you still on the sidelines, waiting for a dip that might never come, remember this: Bitcoin's climb isn't about waiting for discounts; it's about recognizing the ascent of a new financial paradigm. Every Bitcoin you don't own now is a missed opportunity in the making.

So, what's next? More institutional adoption, more regulatory clarity, and yes, possibly even more volatility. But through it all, Bitcoin will stand firm, a beacon of sound money in a sea of monetary madness.

Stack those sats, protect your wealth, and remember: in this game of financial survival, Bitcoin isn't just your shield; it's your sword.

HODL, my friends. The future is orange.

How much would you be willing to have on a Bitkey?

Digital sunrise,

A new era of freedom,

Bitcoin, our beacon.

I get the sense that we all need to really enjoy these next few years, the beauty of the pumps, dips and crabbing. The traditional financial players are here, but enough of the world still don’t realize it yet leading to the amazing feeling of knowing something that the majority doesn’t. After this it will be indisputable. Bitcoin will continue to grow into what we all know it will and we will look on with astonishment and pride but it will be different. We will look back on these days fondly.
