The bitcoin cycle is real. Some think it’s driven by the halving, others the fiat liquidity/US Presidential cycle, who knows. This is the only cycle that matters and it’s one as old as time. It is the hero’s journey. It is the fourth turning. Nature works in cycles. Strong men make good times, good times create weak men, weak men make hard times, hard times create strong men. Where are we know?

I had spent little time truly thinking through American coinage, least of which the penny. It always felt stupid and useless to me, just another side effect incompetent and greedy government. It’s only use being to accurately make change, due to seemingly random taxes applied at checkout, obscuring the true price, but I digress.
Today I asked, what if a penny was made of copper, how much would it be worth. The price of copper is easy enough to find, $3.89/oz, so just need the weight of a penny. Come to find most are 2.5 grams, new pennies are 3.11 g.

However, when first introduced it was 13.48g of 100% copper. Today that is roughly $1.85. Let that soak in, the penny should have 185x more purchasing power than it does today.
The original fucking intent was to be able to buy you a shitty yet satisfying sandwich, to provide you with enough sustenance to get you to the next meal.
The ability to satisfy a basic human need makes the penny feel way more relevant and useful. Makes you think, maybe we weren’t always a people ruled by mostly incompetent, certainly power hungry, blatantly greedy, potentially evil people. Maybe the founding ideals were actually solid, put in place and agreed upon by good people, who understood the importance of individual liberties and saw first hand the suffering and oppression of tyranny.
However, over time that foundation has been deeply eroded in no small part by monetary debasement. Started with coin clipping, then dilution, graduated to fractional reserve paper, and culminating in fiat digital currencies.
Bitcoin fixes this. Its connection to real world energy and equal enforcement of strict rules governed by nothing other than mathematics, makes it a source of truth that humanity so desperately needs. Respect for and adherence to the laws of nature are required for human flourish.

Learned early as an engineer that energy doesn’t lie, but took to accept vibes are real. It’s amazing what nature will reveal when you humble yourselves and observe.
Follow the orange glowing light. Bitcoin is truth, bitcoin is the way.
What an absolute workhorse! That thing can reveal some deep truths, and decent games.
My goal isn’t to have the highest score. My goal is to have fuck you money. Fuck you money lets you control your life, time, and energy. Some one wants to try and violate that, they can go fuck themselves.
To me that is 3-6 month emergency fund in cash. Land, house and vehicles are as secured as possible. Some fixed rate debt is ok as long as it is well covered by consistent income. Throw in some guns, goats, beans, and bullets if your into that kinda thing.
Once that’s secure, I’m stacking as many fucking sats as I can.
Nostriches, assemble!
Thomas Massie is a real one, he fucking gets it.
Wild to think the lives that had to be lived to get you here. Time, life itself, is the only thing scarcer than bitcoin. It is precious, cherish it and pass it on.
It’s important to have goals to strive towards
It’s important to have trusted sources, this guy always kept you informed
