Thus far, Vanguard has 'protected' its clients from 160% gains since the Bitcoin spot ETFs were announced last year.

You may call yourselves plebs, but yeeting your life savings and converting all fiat and tangible assets into Bitcoin is far from average.

Bitcoin just over took Amazon to become the 4th largest asset on the planet.

Financial advisors have a hard pivot ahead of them. They have to acknowledge that Bitcoin is valuable, but have to excuse their denigration of it the past 15 years.

GM plebs 🤙🏼🧡

Today, 37 years ago I was born.

Grateful to be here. 🫂💜

Truth is… Bitcoin would be literally nothing without you.

You are Bitcoin.

It’s literally up to us to make this world a better place.

Thanks everyone 🙏🏼

I don’t think people fully grok the risk of KYC in Bitcoin.

KYC honeypots & data leaks are already dangerous in the analog world. But zoom out and fast-forward 20 years into a hyper-digitized, hyper-bitcoinized future, and that risk 10x’s.

In the analog, pre-hyperbitcoinized world, if someone gets your family’s name, SSN, and address, what’s the worst the can happen?

Maybe they impersonate you. Maybe they sell your data to ad companies.

It’s bad, but not end-of-the-world bad.

But with Bitcoin — a digital bearer asset — it’s different.

Once someone knows your family holds a large stack, you’re a forever target.

You don’t get spammed. You get hunted.

By North Korean hacker teams and ransomware crews from every corner of the world. Forever.

You do not want a target on your family’s back for eternity.

Zoom out & think long-term. KYC isn’t just a risk. It’s a ticking time bomb.

P.S. Some historical context: KYC was invented before the Internet.

Not only has it failed its objectives, its creators NEVER anticipated a world shaped by the Internet & Bitcoin.

The ramifications of this outdated policy will be insane in the years to come. A lot of people will get hurt.

calming to see Bitcoin stay unphased while seemingly everyone is freaking out about tariffs again.

GM Europe 🇪🇺. #Bitcoin back at €100k.

POV: Europeans right now waiting for #Bitcoin to cross €100k.

A huge number of merchants are going to be onboarded onto Bitcoin over the next two years.

It’s happening.
