What are your financial goals?
Often, people respond with "have money for my retirement," but that's too broad.
It’s like saying you want to travel without knowing the destination. Instead, break it down:
How much will you need? By when? Do you want to travel, buy a second home, or support grandchildren? Specific goals help you create a clear plan.
For example, aiming to save $1 million by age 65 for a comfortable lifestyle. Being precise guides better decision-making.
Every person we meet is a chance to educate and promote bitcoin, enhancing its adoption around the world. #BitcoinForAll

We should live in a #deterministic world for finance and #money because it ensures predictability and #stability.
Imagine knowing exactly where your money will be in 5 years—no surprises, no market crashes.
It builds trust and reduces risk.
Think about it: wouldn't you prefer guaranteed outcomes over gambling with your savings?
Let’s keep it straightforward and secure.
This post is in no way an endorsement of Chainlink; we are only #Bitcoin. #FinancialStability #Bitcoin

Tether's stablecoin company strategy mirrors that of MicroStrategy, using interest income from treasury bills to purchase Bitcoin. This enables them to increase their Bitcoin holdings while maintaining stablecoin pegs and generate higher returns than traditional investments. However, as with Microstrategy, there are inherent risks associated with these strategies when considering possible periods of rate increases or the failure of counterparts.DEFAULT RISK

What we want to say was that Tether and MicroStrategy both hold #Bitcoin on their balance sheets, but their strategies differ.
Tether buys Bitcoin using interest earned from high treasury rates, while MicroStrategy directly buys Bitcoin as a core investment strategy.
Similar goals, different methods!

The mempool in Bitcoin is a data structure where all unconfirmed transactions are stored before being included in a block by miners. Nodes on the network verify these transactions and add them to their local mempools, broadcasting them to other nodes for verification before they are added to blocks considering transaction fees input cost/output ratios,historical information allowing for mining profitability optimization. The size of the mempool can vary according to network congestion and block size limitations which may cause longer waiting times or increase competing costs depending on individual wallets or applications used

Questioning why we think we're right on #Bitcoin is crucial because it keeps us from getting blindsided by risks.
Imagine buying Bitcoin because everyone's hyped, but then its value crashes.
Constantly questioning helps us stay sharp, spot potential issues, and make smarter decisions.
It's like checking your map while hiking to avoid getting lost. 🗺️📉 
Are #banks broke?
Banks often hold way less cash than their customers' deposits.
If everyone withdrew their money at once, they'd run out fast.
It's like having a big party and only buying enough snacks for a few guests, hoping not everyone gets hungry at the same time. 🍪➡️🚫
#SahmRule Recession Indicator
The #SahmRule recession indicator flags a recession when the unemployment rate rises by 0.5% or more within 12 months.
Example: If unemployment jumps from 4% to 4.5% in a year, that's a red flag. It's like a warning bell that things might be going downhill economically. 🚨
Full reserve banking is better than fractional reserve banking, as the latter allows banks to create money out of thin air by lending more than their reserves. In contrast, full-reserve banking requires that banks hold 100% of the funds deposited in them and not using those deposits for any risky activities such as speculative investments or loans which reduces financial risks like bank runs and reinforces soundness within the economy.

Bitcoin miners are incentivized to seek out the cheapest electricity globally, regardless of location. They operate successfully in areas with intermittent or temporary energy sources and require low internet bandwidth, unlike traditional server farms susceptible to downtimes due to energy intermittencies.

The Federal Reserve's cyclical "business as usual" approach is the next catalyst for the new Bitcoin run. Investors are recognizing its value in times of economic uncertainty and turning to it as a hedge against inflation, thereby driving demand and price growth.

Refusing to live life on autopilot and striving for personal growth is the biggest step towards achieving something great. That's why I started WBTM, to share what Bitcoin has taught me about financial literacy, critical thinking, and embracing change with an open mind.

The Gutenberg press liberated humans from the Church's knowledge monopoly by making access to books more widespread. However, it is ironic that the printing press ended up controlling humanity again, this time through central banks' ability to cheaply print money and manipulate economies.

According to a recent study, 72% of buyers prefer a free rep experience.
Translation: People want to explore #Bitcoin on their own, not be sold on it.
Let's #ditchthesalespitch and focus on empowering folks to make their own decisions.
Knowledge is power, after all! 💪 #Bitcoin #NoSalesPitch #Empowerment
