Gather around kids and let me tell you about my first halving. It was a dark time, the markets were in turmoil and price had crashed. I thought I'd 'invest' in #Bitcoin and get rich! Then something strange happened. I learned my wealth was being stolen via inflation and the only asset that gov't was unable to create and subsequently debase, was Bitcoin. The light bulb went on and here I am.
He quit school after grade 9 to help on the family farm, suffered from a physical disability due to polio since childhood, endured a broken neck in a car accident, had his family destroyed by the inflation of the 70's and never once complained.
He bought me my first computer in the mid 80's and told me that it was the future. I know he would have been a Bitcoiner. He was always willing to help, and gave me my work ethic of an honest days work for an honest days pay. His best advice was this. "If you don't enjoy your job, quit. You'll be miserable from the moment you get out of bed until you get home. Go find something you want to do".
His passing on Easter Saturday long ago when I was a young man is my reminder of a life well lived with dignity, respect and love. RIP dad. https://nostrcheck.me/media/ce1463801a093965d7edad0fb8bff8d0851520589714018647d821a843892d64/b78d4ee68db3435f208549cf48b9e77a4a37d6ce706dcab623ee1a2452d2669f.webp
4 years ago today I bought my first amount of #Bitcoin
I've never sold a single satoshi.
I bought to the top and back to the bottom. While I believe I have a good grasp of it I'm still learning.
From a complete noob to a co-host of our local #Bitcoin meet up. It's been an amazing journey for me personally. I'm looking forward to the next cycle. Lfg!
After the rug pull last year, there's zero chance I'd consider attending the Bitcoin rodeo in Calgary this year. After making my early purchase for a full price ticket, they then offered a 2for1 deal which made my ticket worthless for resale upon learning I could not attend the event. They got desperate to put people in the seats. Read: no money.
Fuck them.
Hardly a wonder @BTCsessions didn't put a workshop on during the event.
Coffee is the elixir of life. ☕
You have my thoughts and prayers. 🙏😏
GM. Chop wood, haul water. Stack sats.
It's a good day to have a really good day.
As each trading day passes more #Bitcoin will be taken off the market by asset managers for their ETFs. We are in the early stages of the upcoming supply shock. Already they are buying up more than the daily issuance of #Bitcoin It's not difficult to see where this leads to. Come April when the daily issuance is cut in half, the supply/demand part of the equation will be more prominent. Govern yourself accordingly.
Today the rest of the world begins to learn what many of us already know.

Why do you always end up at Nick's cafe.... https://youtu.be/4KP9PNSUME4?si=bByn6P6fpXk3e3uQ
Happy birthday #Bitcoin 🎉
Happy new year to one and all. All those things you wanted to do? Go do them. Start now.
The most precious thing you have is your time. Use it wisely. Don't let a moment of it slip away. Spend it with the people who mean the most to you. Embrace the time you are alone.
Watch the sunrise. Hug your people. Say hi to the dog, even if it's not your dog.
And buy #Bitcoin
Christmas gifts.
More sats > wrapping paper.
#Bitcoin
Do not cast pearls before swine.
Be the thermostat, not the thermometer.
