The ₿itcoin ₿eginner

Think you "own" your house? Try not paying property taxes for a year and see how long before armed government agents drag you out of "your" property. The beautiful lie of homeownership crumbles the moment you realize you're just a tenant paying rent to the state. And what do you get for this extortion? Failing schools, pothole-ridden roads, and a bloated bureaucracy that grows fatter each year while your neighborhood declines. But hey – at least the politicians can afford their third vacation home with your annual tribute payment.

When will Strategy reach 1 million Bitcoin? They only need to acquire 238,932 more. At the current Bitcoin price of $71,000 that's about $17 billion of new purchases. So far this year Strategy has raised $7.4 billion and purchased 88,571 Bitcoin. Assuming no acceleration in purchases they would only need another 2.7 quarters to acquire enough - so some time in Q4, 2026. With further acceleration in STRC capital raises, some time in Q3, 2026. @Z06Z07

We often blame systems for our problems, thinking change lies outside us. Yet, real transformation starts within. Your choices, including the money you use, reflect your values. Aligning with an honest protocol is choosing integrity. Change the mirror by changing yourself.

Most people still don’t understand what they’re watching. Bitcoin is winning because game theory is pulling everyone toward the same exit from a broken system. The moment I understood this, everything changed for me. At first, only a few people see it save in an asset that can’t be printed. Then more players notice if others move first and I stay in fiat, I lose purchasing power. Then institutions notice if competitors hold Bitcoin and I don’t, I take career risk. Then governments notice if another nation accumulates and we don’t, we fall behind strategically. That’s the loop. What starts as an individual choice becomes a corporate decision, then a state-level decision, then a global coordination game. Simple math? If the money is being debased at 12% a year, doing nothing is a guaranteed loss. So each rational actor asks "Do I want to be early, or do I want to pay much more later?" That is the Bitcoin game theory. Not everyone has to understand it at once. They just have to realize that waiting has a cost. I own it because once you see the incentives clearly, the move becomes obvious.

@Airbtconline In a world of narcissism and empire builders, it was the ultimate act of principle.

April 23, 2011, Satoshi's last known email: "I've moved on to other things. It's in good hands with Gavin and everyone." Think about what he didn't say: ❌ "I'll be back to guide you" ❌ "Don't make changes without me" ❌ "Here's my plan for the next decade" ❌ "I retain veto power" ❌ "I'm staying on as advisor" He just... trusted the code, trusted the community, and left. Compare to every other project: Ethereum: Vitalik still here, still influencing Cardano: Charles still here, still selling Solana: Anatoly still here, still pitching Every shitcoin: Founders still dumping Bitcoin: The creator has been gone since 2011, and the protocol still works perfectly. That's not a bug, that's the ultimate feature. Satoshi proved Bitcoin doesn't need Satoshi. - He didn't build a company - He built a protocol Protocols don't need CEOs.

Let me get this straight. Bitcoin started at zero. Absolute nothing. Worth less than your toenail. No venture capital. No CEO. Never had an employee. And it's now the 13th most valuable asset in the world? And you think it's gonna stop here?

A lot of the tech bros who used to love Bitcoin are suddenly sour on it. Many of them unloaded a big chunk once it pushed past $100K. Now they’re watching Michael Saylor keep accumulating and even finding new ways to raise capital to buy more, especially through STRC. Things they didn’t think of. That drives them crazy. They seethe and or jealous. That’s a tough position to be in. They believed in it, sold early, and now the guy who never flinched just keeps stacking. Not them, him. So some of that “Bitcoin criticism” you’re seeing lately isn’t really about the asset, it’s just personal. 🚀

Ten months ago today, Steak n Shake launched its burger-to-Bitcoin transformation. Bitcoin payments are faster and saves us money! We have reinvested savings into product quality. Our Strategic Bitcoin Reserve also funds Bitcoin bonus pay for our employees. Our same-store sales have risen dramatically ever since we launched Bitcoin payments. Thank you Bitcoiners! 🧡

🧵 Throughout history, currency debasement has been a tool for governments to manage debt, often at the expense of citizens' purchasing power. But what if there was a way to break this cycle? Enter Bitcoin. Let's explore how it changes the game. 👇

@MartyBent He’s done very well from the US dollar. Of course he doesn’t see the need for a store of value.

Stan Druckenmiller is either an idiot or he is trying to cattle herd people into a digital panopticon.

@TFTC21 Like Buffett, these people know their life and livelihood has been riding on the back of the US dollar.

Stanley Druckenmiller: "Bitcoin is a solution looking for a problem" "I'm sad it ever happened" "It wasn't needed as a store of value"

Here is the uncomfortable truth: The British political class is years behind when it comes to Bitcoin and digital assets. We are asleep at the wheel. Too many people in Westminster are happy to dismiss it with throwaway lines about “Ponzi schemes” without having spent even a few hours/days understanding what it actually is. Bitcoin didn’t appear in a vacuum. It is the latest chapter in a very long story, the evolution of money itself. From gold, to paper backed by gold, to purely fiat currencies controlled by central banks. Anyone who has seriously studied that history can see why a decentralised monetary network with a fixed supply was inevitable. That doesn’t mean every crypto project has merit. Far from it. But confusing Bitcoin with the worst excesses of the crypto industry simply reveals a lack of understanding and full transparency, this was once my view also before I took the time to learn. Britain should be leading the conversation about the future of money and financial infrastructure. Instead, far too many of our decision-makers are still trying to understand the last one. Bitcoin is the future.

@BorisJohnson Left or right, they’ve spent their life sucking at the teat of fiat governments.

I've long suspected Bitcoin is a giant Ponzi scheme and now I'm hearing tales of woe that make me fear I'm right. mol.im/a/15643681

People across Europe have started stamping euro coins with Bitcoin marks 🔥

Patience is one of the rarest edges in Bitcoin. Most people say they want life-changing wealth, but emotionally they cannot survive 6 months of boredom, 40% drawdowns, or a year of sideways price action. I’ve been around long enough to understand this The people who win in Bitcoin usually do not win because they are smarter. They win because they can sit still longer than everyone else. A 2x gets attention. A 5x changes your mindset. A 10x changes your life. A 100x creates empires But almost nobody gets the 100x because they sell their future for short-term emotional relief. That is the lesson. Patience is how you let scarcity, adoption, and time do the heavy lifting. I do not say this as theory. I say it from experience. The longer I study Bitcoin, the more I realize that the real battle is against your own impulses.

🧵 The current monetary system was crafted for an industrial age, yet we're in a digital era driven by exponential technologies. This mismatch is unsustainable, and it's time to face the reality of tech-driven deflation. Let's explore why this is crucial.

Saylor buying 2,000 BTC every single day through $STRC is acceptable to you? You're not going to stack like your life depends on it? That 2,000 per day average is going to turn to 2,500 -> 3,000 -> 4,000 -> 5,000. That is how a perfect infinite Bitcoin accumulation engine works.

Started seeing insane signs of market fatigue all over the timeline while Saylor simultaneously has created an infinite money printer in the worst market conditions possible. Not quite sure how more people haven’t caught this yet. Spring board effect is LOADING

Bitcoin isn't just an asset; it's the TCP/IP of money. A neutral, global protocol that redefines value exchange. While others chase speed, Bitcoin builds a foundation. It's not about being faster; it's about being foundational. #Bitcoin #ProtocolRevolution
