It seems undeniable they're manufacturing a food and crime crisis. Controlled demolition of society synchronised with DID/CBDC/UBI launch seems likely.

Don't get me wrong, I love mince and potatoes. There's plenty you can do with it. It's staple sustenance food. Hard working people deserve a little more though.

Anyone else looking at their shopping basket recently and thinking, "Is this just the way it is now?" Things are really not adding up for working people in the UK today.

Been making some epic BTCTC 'Dumb Money' moves with my fiat locked pension recently. Thinking about getting this custom made. Stay humble, stack sats folks. It's a jungle out there.

Controversial opinion. I hate 'Heart of Gold' by Neil Young.

Bitcoin Self-Custody in UK Pensions 🧵

If you believe self-custody Bitcoin is the optimal asset, what can you do with capital TRAPPED in a UK pension system?

Before 2021, UK pensions could access Bitcoin through derivative instruments in SIPPs. Then January 6, 2021: FCA banned crypto derivatives for retail investors.

The SSAS Solution 🔑

Small Self-Administered Scheme (SSAS) = the ONLY pension vehicle allowing direct Bitcoin investment with self-custody in post-2021 UK.

Why SSAS works:

✅ You become trustee with direct investment control

✅ Direct Bitcoin investment (not derivatives)

✅ Avoids FCA ban entirely

✅ Established legal framework

Pension Scheme Comparison:

SIPP: Bitcoin banned (derivatives), no self-custody

Workplace Pension: No Bitcoin access, no self-custody

SSAS: Direct Bitcoin investment, self-custody achievable

Trade-offs: SSAS has higher costs & complexity, but offers full control.

How to Execute: The 7-Step Process

Phase 1: SSAS Setup

1. Create limited company & business bank account

2. Establish SSAS with experienced administrator

3. Complete HMRC compliance procedures

Phase 2: Bitcoin Acquisition

4. Transfer existing pension funds into SSAS

5. Set up account with FCA-regulated crypto exchange

6. Purchase Bitcoin on behalf of pension scheme

7. Create self-custody deed & transfer to hardware wallet

Critical Success Factors

📋 Document everything for compliance

🏦 Use FCA-regulated exchanges only

👥 Work with experienced pension administrator

⚖️ Maintain trustee obligations throughout

The Bottom Line

SSAS isn't for everyone - it's complex and expensive. But if you have significant pension capital and believe in Bitcoin self-custody, it's currently the ONLY compliant path in the UK.

Self-custody doesn't remove fiduciary responsibilities. You're still a trustee with legal obligations.

But you achieve something impossible elsewhere: true Bitcoin sovereignty within your pension.

Does it protect against potential Government/Pension Co. rug pulls? Serious question.

$SWC The more I look into the more bullish I get. Smarter Web Company is hyperbitcoinising UK Tradfi before the London Stock Exchange has finished their Corn Flakes and got on the District Line.

Anyone else loving 'The Chosen'? Season 1 was the most successful crowdfunded TV series or film project in history and all subsequent series are now free to view. Is it stoking a fire of Revival right now? Possibly.

Perhaps we're too paranoid. Movement of free military personnel is concerning though.

Just finished afternoon roast with based connected TV Z-list neighbour. She's convinced those in the know are getting out of the UK rn. Another SA neighbour, connected with Arms Trade said he's leaving the country for the foreseeable too. Military personnel who can get out of the Forces are doing rn. Canary in the coal mine perhaps. They know something. She's currently prepping a homestead but in two minds about vacating the country and Europe entirely.

What to do?

They're gonna take everyone's bank funds, pensions and investments and blame it on war with Putin aren't they. "The Great Taking" is coming.

Gold is retarded physical Bitcoin.

I may have found a new favourite restaurant. Mafshalia in Tbilisi, Georgia. The buzz here is incredible. Thrilling menu with offaly bits. Ridiculously cheap.

Same machine. I normally go for Becks. Do you rate Lowenbrau more?
