Inspiring the next generation to reclaim freedom Enable independence @bitcoinwell Awaken sovereign individual @getbasedtv ⁣ Love Jesus, save in bitcoin

Building @BitcoinWell started with a simple question: If Bitcoin is about sovereignty, why do so many companies still hold customers’ bitcoin?

Bitcoin Well was built non-custodial by design, even though it’s harder and slower. No custody. No rehypothecation. No seizure risk.

Control stays with the customer.

There are easier business models. Custody is one of them. But it recreates the fragility Bitcoin was meant to fix.

Non-custodial isn’t a feature. It’s the foundation.

Legacy isn’t what you accumulate and leave behind.

It’s what empowers the next generation and remains stable after you’re gone.

Wealth is freedom over your calendar. Everything else is secondary.

The goal isn’t early retirement.

It’s being present, consistently.

A lot of “growth” over the last decade was just duration mismatch plus leverage. As the financial revolution continues this will cripple most companies.

High time preference explains almost everything.

Cheap money rewards speed, leverage, and lots of shortcuts. Sound money rewards patience, skill, and stewardship.

That’s not ideology, it’s just incentives.

I keep EO 6102 framed on my wall as a daily reminder.

Governments can’t confiscate what they don’t control.

That’s why Bitcoin Well is non-custodial by design. No custody means no seizure risk at the platform level.

If history teaches anything, it’s this: extraordinary debt leads to extraordinary measures.

Don’t be naïve.

Non-custodial systems exist for a reason.

I am building Bitcoin Well because I want my kids to inherit a world where their time actually matters. The macro problems are clear.

Bitcoin is the solution, and family is the reason.

It’s simple: Broken money creates broken incentives. Broken incentives create broken families. Fixing the money isn’t just economic policy, it’s cultural repair.

Bitcoin starts the healing.

Our grandparents saved in dollars and built a life. Our generation saves in dollars and watches the value evaporate. I refuse to hand that reality to my kids. This is my life’s mission.

The macro environment hits the dinner table first. Inflation. It’s not just a chart.

It’s parents stretching paychecks.

Debt. It isn’t just a headline. It’s kids growing up with fewer opportunities. Bitcoin gives families breathing room in a system designed to suffocate them.

We’re living through the largest monetary debasement since WWII. But this time, there’s no productive boom on the other side, only more debt. Bitcoin is the escape hatch.

When debt grows faster than GDP for decades, there are only three possible outcomes:

Default

Austerity

Inflation

Western governments choose #3. Bitcoin is how families protect themselves from the choice they never voted for.

The real generational divide isn’t age. It’s mindset. Fiat mindset: “Someone else will fix it.” Bitcoin mindset: “We build it ourselves.” @‌bitcoinwell

A society that prints money faster than it raises families is on the wrong path. We need strong homes, strong values, and strong money. Bitcoin feels like the first domino to fall towards that stronger and better future.

Some people say “it’s just money.” But money shapes incentives, incentives shape culture, and culture shapes the next generation. Fix the money, fix the future.

You can’t outsource your values. Not to a school. Not to a government. And certainly not to a currency that inflates away your future. Stand firm. Raise strong kids. Save sound money.

Next-gen leaders won’t win by climbing broken institutions. They’ll win by building new ones, and Bitcoin is the perfect foundation to make that possible.

The most radical thing you can do today? Become someone your children can rely on. Stacking sats is easy. Building character is the real proof-of-work.

The fiat system teaches you to obey. Bitcoin teaches you to think. One produces followers. The other produces leaders.

If your money loses value, your time loses meaning. Bitcoin flips this. That’s why this movement is ultimately about freedom, not finance.

The system wants you dependent. Self-custody makes you dangerous. When you hold your Bitcoin, no one can lock you out, freeze your funds, or rewrite the rules. This isn’t just about money. It’s about freedom. And that’s exactly why Bitcoin Well exists.

Hope is not a security plan. Self-custody is.

People say Bitcoin is risky. But the real risk is leaving your wealth in a system designed to fail you when you need it most. Self-custody isn’t extreme. It’s the only reasonable thing to do when you want to preserve your wealth.

Freedom isn’t just a nice idea. It’s custody. If someone else holds your bitcoin, you’re not free, you’re just renting freedom. That’s why at Bitcoin Well we teach people to take control. No middlemen. No trust games. Just ownership.

When people ask me why I talk about Bitcoin so much, I tell them: Because the future of faith, family, and freedom depends on who controls the money. And right now… it’s not the people. But it can be.

I’m not raising my kids to be compliant. I’m raising them to be sovereign. They will know Jesus. They will know truth. And they will know how to stand when the world bends. That’s the legacy I’m building.

The most viral truth:

Money you don’t control = life you don’t own.

Bitcoin fixes this.

The fiat system doesn’t teach you how to live. It teaches you how to obey.

Bitcoin flips that. It forces you to think, question, and reclaim your life.

Sound money isn't about getting rich. It’s about getting free.

This year we start homeschooling our kids to make sure they learn to think for themselves.

Critical thinking is the early path freedom.

Money is the value you create with your time, stored for later use.

If someone else controls your money, they control your time.

And if they control your time, how can you be called free?

This is a form of modern day slavery.

And it’s silent and championed by governments around the world.

Financial sovereignty isn’t optional.

It’s the foundation for freedom

Bitcoin isn’t just money you hold.

It’s truth.

It’s time you reclaim.

It’s trust you no longer outsource.

For me, that means more time with my kids… and more future time for my kid.

📈  83,000 NEW JOBS in Canada sounds like progress right?

If you ask the average Canadian about this they will likely tell you it still feels like they’re in survival mode.

Wages just aren’t keeping up. Your paycheck is slightly more, but core necessities have skyrocketed.

This is more than a cost-of-living crisis. This is a currency crisis. A consequence of the broken financial system.

You’re being paid with money that erodes your purchasing power each year, and the central banks decide how fast it decreases!

Bitcoin fixes that. No central bank interference. Just 21mn.

STACK SATS FOR YOUR LAST NAME.

In hindsight I was laughably nonchalant about the whole trip

Would love to get together and chat nostr and bitcoin
