Writing (and thinking) about crypto — not blockchain. If it’s not useful, it’s not valuable!

@DonAlt Also people are scared of quantum. And the spam/core devs seem kinda dumb.

Trump and Saylor branding on BTC is holding it back The crypto industry needs to be somewhat apolitical if it wants to succeed long term The tribalism from the last couple years just alienated a large percentage of humanity and has done more damage than you'd think

@PeterMcCormack @AnthropicAI Oh shit, this will allow them to make ever more and more regulations and restrictions and rules and complexity and then just say “AI will explain it to you”.

@gladstein @stephanlivera Pretty sure tokenised gold is equally invisible (p.s. neither is Bitcoin really invisible btw), weightless, trades 24/7, global, easily verified and teleports. Plus you can also swap to quantum-proof real gold any time.

How dumb do these people think you are? Bitcoin is the greatest store of value in the world since its creation Gold is up 3.3x since the pandemic… BTC is up 12.5x Oh and BTC is invisible, weightless, trades 24/7 globally, is easily verified, and teleports

Zoom out and you can barely see the recent gold outperformance over BTC... Remember this is a LOG chart so the moves look less dramatic (I know X loves drama however). From the 2022 peak gold is down -47% vs BTC and from the 2019 peak, gold is down -85% versus BTC.

The UK government will literally give you free money to retire. And most people can’t be bothered to take it. It’s called a SIPP (Self-Invested Personal Pension). Put in £800 → the government adds £200. Put in £8,000 → they add £2,000. Put in £48,000 → they add £12,000. Instantly. Free. Higher-rate taxpayer? It’s even more ridiculous. A £1,000 pension contribution only costs you £600. The rest is covered by the government. No other country does this. Americans don’t get it. Australians don’t get it. The French definitely don’t get it. They’d kill for this system. Yet most people in the UK either: • don’t know SIPPs exist • or think pensions only come from employers £12,000 of free tax relief invested at 8% for 20 years becomes ~£549,000. From money that was never yours in the first place. The annual allowance is £60,000. Most people use a tiny fraction of it. We’ve been handed a retirement cheat code - and people scroll past it like it’s nothing. Be honest… are you even using yours? I'd at least recommend researching it.

@PeterMcCormack It doesn’t stop. It continues. The reckoning never comes. Certainly not a cliff edge. The people pay collectively via inflation. Slowly. And then faster and faster. The process can take a very long time and the worse it gets the more the socialism until eventually even worse.

@PeterMcCormack @ZackPolanski He doesn’t need to answer any questions on economics to get elected. He doesn’t need to have any idea about economics at all. Barely any recent political leaders have or do. This is really not how getting elected works. It’s irrelevant to being elected.

@ZackPolanski Are you panicking about answer real questions on economics? You seem to be unable to ever answer the question of how your policies won't be inflationary. Under your economics you will drive inequality. I know this because I benefit from your economics as I am an asset holder.

@TFTC21 You know what’s quantum proof? Gold! You know what’s not? Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is audited every 10 minutes. Fully transparent. Verifiable by anyone. This is why gold is a relic.

@PeterMcCormack If you vote then there is no other choice but to vote for it. And if you don’t vote for it, you’ll get it just the same anyway.

IT’S TIME TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND ADMIT THE CRYPTO MARKET IS BROKEN! At some point we need to admit that something is structurally broken in the crypto market! 2025 was a year with all the necessities for a bull market. We had liquidity, We had a pro-crypto US government. We had ETFS. We had Saylor buying $1bn a week. We had DATs. We came off a low base (Biden and Harris) We had nation states and sovereign funds buying. We achieved scale. We have Gold, Silver, Nasdaq and Russell 2000 all at all-time highs. Even with all the above, we are ending 2025 lower and only 20% where we were with Biden. I’ve seen many theories, the “IPO moment”, “the trapped liquidity” , “the 4-year cycle” - but all of these seem like desperate attempts to justify a market that doesn’t make sense. So, what happens next? There are 2 options; 1. We discover what’s actually broken and who is selling. When we do, in hindsight it will be obvious! 2. We have the mother of all catch up trades! Because that’s how markets work. They can separate from where they are supposed to be for short periods but they always come back to equilibrium! My hope is for the latter. My bet is that we will soon find out what actually broke! Happy 2026!

@PeterMcCormack You can’t stop that kind of system. It’s self-accelerating, self-reinforcing. It got here by forces that have not and are not diminishing, they are strengthening still. It doesn’t care if you vote or not. It matters not. Every party is the same party with the same contraints.

Happy Sunday… Remember, it doesn’t matter who you vote for, nothing will materially change. Why? Because the system is built so nobody can ever be held responsible. If someone has power over your life, you should know who they are, what they’re allowed to do and how to stop them. Until then, have fun thinking your vote matters.
