Bitcoin Basics

@TheBTCTherapist This is hilarious. What a sob story. I actually had to unmute this account in order to read this… yeah, I think X got this one right. The amount of spam and slop generated from this account was too much for me

This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to write. I’m completely devastated. Last Friday, I️ was notified that my monetization had been paused. I’ve shown up on this app for 5 years straight every single day to grow my account to what it is now. I️ never once paid for ads, never bought followers, never did anything but grow in an organic way. After appealing once, I️ was told my account was removed due to spam and inauthentic content. This couldn’t be further from the truth. I️ spend 6-12 hours on X daily in addition to my full time job; creating content, interacting and posting. I’ve adapted to new algorithms, posting strategies and even started a newsletter. I️’ve stopped using any other online platforms as I️ truly value the freedom and community X has brought me. Every single holiday, family event, vacation, wedding, birthday, you name it, I’ve been active on X during it. I’ve never once taken for granted the audience I’ve grown on this app and have thoroughly enjoyed the relationships I’ve built because of it. During this last period in which I️ was removed, I️ proposed to my girlfriend of 7 years. During this proposal trip, I️ stayed active online the entire time, which is nothing new. I have given up years of time to create something bigger with no regret. But now, after being denied and repeatedly called a spam account, with no way to plead my case, my last resort is to post here. Having to do this publicly feels so pathetic. It’s been almost a week and 2 appeals later, and I️ can’t get in touch with anyone who’s willing to help. I haven’t been given any clarification of where I️ went wrong or if there is a pathway to resolution. How can I️ dedicate myself so profoundly to something for so many years without being given any chance to make a simple change in my form of content? I’ve never had my account flagged or even been told of any misconduct in a 5 year period. The first I️ hear of an issue is ironically on pay day after spending hours upon hours working online during my vacation. I️ don’t expect everyone to be able to understand the severity of this situation because they will never see the time, sacrifices and work put into growing an account from 0 followers to over 260k. I️ can’t begin to explain the things I’ve sacrificed to get to the point of being a creator and I️ can’t help but feel like the platform has failed me. To you, this may just be a lighthearted meme account you follow. To me, this has altered my life. I️ was committing to go full time on X and even put in notice at my full time job. It is every content creators dream to be able to take this on full time, and to have it taken away from you almost as soon as you got it, feels gut wrenching. Over the last 2 years I’ve told everyone how important it is to get a blue checkmark, pay for premium and begin to monetize their account. I️ couldn’t have been louder about how much I️ love this platform and truly felt it was the only platform worth being on. The freedom I️ was given was amazing up until now. I️ truly never thought something like this would happen. All of this to say, I️ am not a spam account and I️ deserve reconciliation. I️f there is a specific thing I’ve done wrong, I️ will adapt my content to no longer do so. But a permanent suspension with a false reasoning will never be okay with me. I️ would hope that you are also not okay with taking away the livelihood of the creators on a platform that prides itself on free speech. @XCreators @premium @x @elonmusk @nikitabier

$1B a month ✅ $1B a week ✅ $1B a day…. Loading $STRC hitting escape velocity

@RobSats @grok Do the math yourself lol.., 22k per week, 250k away from a milly

Yo @grok if they keep buying this much, what date will they reach 1 million coins?

Many were expecting a huge purchase of 40,000 bitcoin this week on the premise of MSTR ATM at a 3:1 ratio with STRC In the end, they sold $1.1B of STRC and relaxed the MSTR ATM for only 400MM I like what I see. Time to ramp up the prefs and let the common stock go for a run 📈

@Srt_platinum @ariadotwav Civil engineering

@ariadotwav Tf do I study if I want some bands then

I cannot stress enough how absolutely cooked CS, Soft Eng, Comp Eng and basically any tech/IT major is. Literally no one in my cohort bothers to write their own code anymore. People just hand in labs that are fully vibecoded and pass with grades above 90% and the profs do NOTHING

@MSTR_Prophet Agreed, in an earlier tweet I did some back of the envelope calcs and arrived at 40,000 Bitcoin in a week assuming 2k/day from strc and a 3:1 ratio with common stock atm

@BitcoinBasicsYT We may see a $2B -$3B bitcoin purchase this week when announced this coming Monday. MSTR ATM issuance should be 2X the stretch issuance. Let’s see what Friday volume will be.

Simply incredible. Strategy has used STRC to buy over 10,000 bitcoin this week alone... and it's only Thursday

What if an investor with unlimited capital announced a program to acquire 450 $BTC daily at the market price for the next four years and hold the asset forever? What if they increased their purchases to 675 BTC daily in 2028, and to 787.5 BTC daily in 2032? #BitcoinHalving.

How many STRC shares do you need to own for it to pay your rent/mortgage? Something to think about

@thepowerfulHRV Maybe stop telling people that Bitcoin is going to 10x to a million dollars by 2030. I think a 20% cagr is a more fair place to start

$STRC is highly accretive to $MSTR, even though its dividend is funded through the common ATM (issuing new shares of $MSTR). Here's how it works: Strategy sells $100K of $STRC yielding 11.5%, buys $100K of BTC. They now have a $11.5K annual dividend obligation. *Five years pass, Bitcoin rises by 10x* Strategy now holds $1 million of BTC, but has only paid $57.5K to service the STRC dividend over the 5 years. ($11.5K/year * 5 years = $57.5K) That's an $842.5K gain to $MSTR shareholders! ($842.5K = $900K gain on BTC - $57.5K of dividends) Strategy now has $1 million of BTC, but the $STRC dividend remains only $11.5K per year. Strategy will fund the dividend by issuing new $MSTR common shares. Sounds bad, but the $57.5K of share dilution is small compared to the $900K BTC gain. Key takeaways: (1) The dividend payment remains $11.5K forever, but the BTC they hold will appreciate in value forever, a permanent benefit to $MSTR shareholders. (2) Over time, the dividend payment becomes inconsequential compared to the value of the BTC they acquired. (3) Perpetual preferreds like $STRC are different from debt in that the principal never has to be repaid. Note: In reality, the $STRC dividend may be adjusted depending on market demand, but I assume flat for simplicity of the math.

I predict Strategy will announce having a nakamoto before Nakamoto announces having a strategy.

Ok, so we know from the latest 8k that MSTR is selling shares at a 3:1 ratio to STRC to maintain the amplification ratio Say STRC buys 2000 bitcoin a day, MSTR shares would sell ATM to buy 6000 bitcoin 8000 bitcoin per day for 5 days for a total of 40,000 bitcoin in a week

Mega day for STRC. 20,000 Bitcoin buy locked and loaded for next week??

@VijaySelvam You don’t invest in strc, you SAVE in strc. They are different buckets of your overall portfolio

Why would anyone invest in $STRC over $MSTR? If MSTR fails, STRC certainly fails too. If MSTR succeeds, it will return far, far more than 10% pa. What am I missing? 🤷‍♂️

War debases currencies, freezes capital, closes borders, and levels physical assets. The question every conflict forces on capital holders is ancient. The answer, for the first time, is new.

Juan Soto is a media god! A reporter hits Vladdy with: “Is that a message to Japan? Your shirt says Nakamoto Soto leans in and quickly whispers something in his ear, and Vladdy gives him a nod. Vladdy claps back with; “this has nothing to do with Japan, this is just a shirt, and those who know about brands, know.” 🎥 @elpaditv

Phong Le just dropped a huge hint for their next pref offering: stretch but it pays daily 🤯

Phong Le is hinting heavily towards their next preferred equity offering that will pay DAILY... imagine that

$STRC closes at $100.005 on 1.82M shares — 97% of volume above ATM threshold all session. ~1,015 BTC estimated today. New single-day record, well past the previous best of ~787. Historic accumulation. Yield at 11.5%. STRC.live
