with AI that translates at the same time, and is AR friendly, i think it has its time soon.

Tyger Tyger, burning bright,

In the forests of the night;

What immortal hand or eye,

Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies.

Burnt the fire of thine eyes?

On what wings dare he aspire?

What the hand, dare seize the fire?

Bring me my bow of burning gold,

Bring me my arrows of desire,

Bring me my spear, O clouds unfold!

Bring me my chariot of fire.

I will not cease from mental fight

Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand,

Till we have built Jerusalem

In England's green and pleasant land.

It was 101 years ago today, that the US first broke faith with objective reality.

The only time you will see politicians working on xmas eve will be to subvert, at the root, the very concept of value and fairness.

Until it returns to it's own Constitutional standards of law and morality - the USA and Bitcoin will never be compatible and have always and will always be, mutually exclusive concepts.

I'm building an empire

I'm building it with all I know

I'm building an empire

Starting from scratch, it began with stones

I'm building an empire

I'm building with my body and soul

I'm building an empire

So little time and so much to do

But I must say: this is as good as it gets

So why you wasting your blood, your sweat, your tears??

build an empire,

build it higher

I'm building an empire

I'm building with the stars in mind,

I'm building an empire

That's one day gonna scrape the sky

I'm building an empire

That's led by my heart to know my home

I'm building an empire

And now I'm never gonna look back,

I must say this is as good as it gets,

So why you wasting your blood, your sweat, your tears??

build an empire

build it higher

It's gonna touch the sky

I build it higher higher high

It's gonna touch the sky

wtaf is that a pig rat?

cracking though fair play

Calling it here.

Gonna stand in front of the Elon Musk train.

Too much power, flawed guy, on ket, almost total ubiquity on media, as a vertical, much else.

Feels like he's completely priced in/ overpriced unless he cures ball cancer or meets aliens.

The trend is your friend, but i think that guy and his potential is already realized or already expected as certain.

and GM, wankers.

Thought experiment.

Option # 1

Let’s say you have 10 bitcoin and we hit 2 million in the next few years.

You’re tempted so you sell it for 20 million dollars.

After taxes you’re be left with 16MM.

Which you use to comfortably generate 1.2MM a year in the tradfi markets.

So you take the money and retire.

Bitcoin crashes 60% back to 800k.

For a few years you feel like a genius. You enjoy your new rich person lifestyle.

You even buy back a few bitcoin. 2 to be exact. 20% of what you used to have.

Then bitcoin rises over the next decade to be worth 50 million per coin.

You’re worth 120 million now. And you decide to sell a little over half a coin and upgrade your lifestyle again to be able to generate an additional 2 million a year.

You’re now on paper worth 120 million, you generate 3.2 million a year (266k a month) and you’ve been largely stress free for the last decade.

Your kids will inherit roughly 1.62 bitcoin from you upon your death.

You have some level of regret about not hodling through, but you’ve been largely stress free and the mental health benefit was worth it in your mind.

Vs.

Option # 2

You have the same 10 bitcoin but you Hodl them.

Your stress levels are persistently higher.

You also decide to retire when Bitcoin hits 2 mil, but you decide to do so in bitcoin terms.

Your plan is to sell a little bitcoin as needed in order to fund your lifestyle.

This is roughly 1-3 million sats a month. Depending on bitcoin price.

Over the course of 10 years you end up selling or spending 2.4 bitcoin and are still left worth 7.6btc when bitcoin reaches 50 million.

Your net worth is 380 million.

You’ve reduced your lifestyle in bitcoin terms down to a million sats a month. (500k) or 6 million per year. You’re 46, Assuming you live until you’re 90 you will pass down 2.32 bitcoin to your kids.

You have no regrets about the way you played it, but your stress was consistently higher and there were a few scary months along the way.

Which option do you choose?

1 or 2?

Mate, you hit on a good subject, this aint a comment on your views,

IMO The ugliest, greediest part of the Bitcoin cannon, that we accept, is the hoarding and extreme approaches.

It's low, it's dumb, and it's wrong.

First, if you were in 10-15, you had a serious and viable reason to defer huge parts of your time and potential for rapid and life changing rewards, and many did, and correctly.

If you are, 100% in bitcoin now, you are by definition 0% everywhere else, and the fiat difficulty adjustment (staying alive and happy) is rising faster than Bitcoin's CAGR. There is a fall coming to the prideful.

I believe we are at an invisible inflection point where the risks of NOT owning your last 10% of Bitcoin is now lower that the fiat/real world risks of getting very badly trampled, and not protecting your basic needs and freedoms with that same 10%

What the screechers don't realise, is that they are set up (in their absolute belief of an "up and to the right" price path), to realize their abstract wealth into a level of volatility that few in our lifetimes have witnessed, and they will have never been as individually weak for the deferral of "everything" they are, into a bag of money.

Smart path is to be sensible and serve yourself first, without that best version, and excess Bitcoin you have, will convey to those with the appropriate level of wisdom and character.

My thesis in short:
