3.5 years ago, I told investors we would pay them an 18% preferred return. Nobody believed this would work - It was too good to be true! After year one, I increased their payment to 22% annualized and back dated it to day one.

@PeterSchiff @Strategy Short it

@Strategy You mean it's the largest Ponzi in the world. Investors don't want Bitcoin. They want the 11.5% yield. But that yield is financed by a pure Ponzi scheme, except when you run out of new investors you have a legal right to stop paying old investors. Then SRTC crashes to zero.

The world’s largest preferred is now backed by bitcoin. $STRC $BTC

I love the fact that banks will do a wire over the phone, but sending #BTC would've been 100x easier.

@DylanKoch2 I can't believe I sold it too early. Would've well over 10x'd

I took his advice and became a “shameless closer” Don’t reinvent the wheel. Just study where there greats have their money and do your own research to share in the conviction.

Back when I was first learning about wealth building (around 2017), I first started studying the GOAT, Warren Buffett. Shortly after I came across @MohnishPabrai whose largest holding at the time was $MU - and it was like 90% of this portfolio. A BIG and concentrated bet.

Even got the chance to meet him at the 2018 Berkshire Shareholder Event with my buddy @tanhtruong @MohnishPabrai

@NoLimitGains What about commercial?

@CaseyMericle @realEstateTrent Are you using Claude Cowork?

@realEstateTrent we disagree on many things. That's the beauty of this business If you wanna time-saving real estate hack then... AI is definitely for you! We both agree urgency wins deals, but... You're never gonna beat me in a simultaneous 1031 exchange The reason why is because of AI See vid

🔥EARLY RETIREMENT LIFE HACK: HOW TO BUY $1 MILLION WITH $100,000🔥 Alright, listen closely, because this is the part of the simulation where your uncle calls you a “degenerate gambler” while he proudly contributes 6% to a 401(k) invested in 14 different flavors of S&P 500 index fund, then wonders why eggs cost $11. Step 1: Borrow $100,000 USDC on Morpho around 2.87%. That’s about $2,870 a year in interest, which is basically one dental emergency, or half a Target run if you have free will issues. Step 2: Take that $100,000 and buy STRK at $78.34. That gets you roughly 1,276.49 shares of STRK. You are now the proud owner of a security that exists because finance people looked at the human soul and said, “How can we wrap this into a coupon?” Step 3: STRK yields about 10.21% effective. On $100,000, that’s roughly $10,210 per year in cash distributions. So you’re paying $2,870 to borrow the money and collecting $10,210 for holding the thing you bought with it. That spread is your carry. Your carry is your emotional support animal. Your carry is the tiny accountant living in your walls going, “Technically this is positive.” Net carry: 10.21% − 2.87% = 7.34%. That’s about $7,340 a year in “free cashflow” before taxes, rate changes, the universe, and your personal talent for suffering. Now the part that melts brains. Step 4: Refinance the carry into MSTR. Meaning, you take that $7,340 a year and you buy MSTR with it over and over. Like a little robot that converts interest spreads into pure chaos. Meanwhile, the STRK itself has a conversion feature: 1 STRK → 0.1 shares of MSTR. So after 10 years, if you convert: 1,276.49 STRK → 127.65 shares of MSTR. If Saylor is correct and we see a Bitcoin CAGR of 30% over the next ten years, MSTR's amplification will mean a ~37.5% CAGR for 10 years. That implies MSTR goes from $129 today to about $3,116 in 10 years. Yes, it sounds insane. That’s why it’s on-brand. So your conversion pile alone becomes: 127.65 shares × $3,116 ≈ $397,771. Cool, right. Cute. Respectable. A nice little “I stopped drinking soda” kind of gain. But the carry reinvestment is where the demon lives. If you recycle that net carry into MSTR every year, under that same growth assumption, you end up with roughly: ~220.6 additional MSTR shares accumulated from the carry buys. Total MSTR shares at the end: 127.65 (conversion) + 220.6 (carry DCA) ≈ 348.3 shares. Value in year 10: 348.3 × $3,116 ≈ $1,085,000. Congrats, your spreadsheet just produced a seven figure outcome using a hundred grand of borrowed stablecoins and a security named like a Star Wars droid. Now pay the piper. You still owe the principal: If you repay just the $100,000 at the end, your rough net is $985,000. If you let interest accrue at 2.87% the whole time, debt becomes about: $132,705, leaving you around $952,000 net. So yeah, that is the “buy a million with a hundred grand” story arc. YOU'RE WELCOME.

we're making @blocks smaller today. here's my note to the company. #### today we're making one of the hardest decisions in the history of our company: we're reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. that means over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. i'll be straight about what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone. first off, if you're one of the people affected, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks + 1 week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of may, 6 months of health care, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put toward whatever you need to help you in this transition (if you’re outside the U.S. you’ll receive similar support but exact details are going to vary based on local requirements). i want you to know that before anything else. everyone will be notified today, whether you're being asked to leave, entering consultation, or asked to stay. we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly. i had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. i chose the latter. repeated rounds of cuts are destructive to morale, to focus, and to the trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. i'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position we believe in than manage a slow reduction of people toward the same outcome. a smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business the right way, on our own terms, instead of constantly reacting to market pressures. a decision at this scale carries risk. but so does standing still. we've done a full review to determine the roles and people we require to reliably grow the business from here, and we've pressure-tested those decisions from multiple angles. i accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong, and we've built in flexibility to account for that, and do the right thing for our customers. we're not going to just disappear people from slack and email and pretend they were never here. communication channels will stay open through thursday evening (pacific) so everyone can say goodbye properly, and share whatever you wish. i'll also be hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 3:35pm pacific. i know doing it this way might feel awkward. i'd rather it feel awkward and human than efficient and cold. to those of you leaving…i’m grateful for you, and i’m sorry to put you through this. you built what this company is today. that's a fact that i'll honor forever. this decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. you will be a great contributor to any organization going forward. to those staying…i made this decision, and i'll own it. what i'm asking of you is to build with me. we're going to build this company with intelligence at the core of everything we do. how we work, how we create, how we serve our customers. our customers will feel this shift too, and we're going to help them navigate it: towards a future where they can build their own features directly, composed of our capabilities and served through our interfaces. that's what i'm focused on now. expect a note from me tomorrow. jack

Bitcoin is CRASHING Ethereum is CRASHING XRP is CRASHING Gold is CRASHING Silver is CRASHING S&P 500 is CRASHING Nasdaq is CRASHING Banks are CRASHING Dollar is CRASHING Is there anything going up right now?

I'm a Reserve Manager at a central bank. My job is buying gold. 297 tons this year. Quietly. While we print money. Loudly. Gold hit $5,000 an ounce yesterday. We've been buying since it was $1,800. That's called "reserve diversification." Diversification means we don't trust our own currency. But we can't say that. So we say "diversification." The Governor went on television last month. He said inflation is "anchored." Anchored means 6%. Used to mean 2%. We moved the anchor. That's monetary policy. He said the currency is "sound." Sound means losing 20% of its value. Per year. But it sounds sound. That's what matters. We bought 45 tons in November. Poland bought 95 tons. Brazil bought 43. China reports 1 ton. China is lying. We all know. Nobody says it. 95% of central banks plan to buy more gold next year. That's a survey. We surveyed ourselves. On whether we trust ourselves. We don't. We trust gold. Citizens ask why prices keep rising. We say "supply chains." We say "external factors." We don't say "we printed 40% of all money in existence since 2020." That's not external. That's us. The Finance Minister asked if gold is a hedge against our own policies. I said "gold is a strategic reserve asset." Strategic means yes. I just can't say yes. Gold is $5,000 now. Our currency buys less every day. Our gold buys more. That's the strategy. For us. Not for you. You get the currency. We get the gold. That's central banking.

Everyone go wish @PrestonPysh a happy birthday!
