The best lesson from @saifedean’s The #Bitcoin Standard is to have low time preference. In short: don’t sacrifice long term health, happiness and wealth for short term impulsive consumption. An impactful lesson that can apply to anyone. (And one I admittedly need up work on.)


2023 was the greatest year of my life personally and professionally. 2024 will be about continuing to build on a solid foundation for the future, with a focus on health and wellness. That starts with bailing on social media - will report back in 2025!


Trick or treat?

If Satoshi Nakamoto went as Satoshi Nakamoto for Halloween, would we be able to tell? Happy 15th anniversary to Satoshi’s famous white paper that started crypto. Any crypto companies that are tricking investors should start treating them to compliance with the securities laws.



More often than not, the more important gauge of the success of #Bitcoin is the amount of computing power protecting the network, not price.

With the SEC’s #Bitcoin ETF approval on the horizon, investment advisers should understand the regulatory and compliance implications of implementing these products into client portfolios. Have a plan in place when the SEC approves the first Bitcoin ETF. stark-stark.com/blog/bitcoin-a…

First Binance. Now Coinbase. Caveat altcoin.

I anticipate the SEC will begin to clamp down on noncompliant exchanges and the unregistered securities they host. From Chair @GaryGensler: “The al­leged fraud com­mit­ted by [SBF] is a clar­ion call to crypto plat­forms that they need to come into com­pli­ance with our laws.”

Today, and every day, Greek Independence is a celebration for Americans and Greeks alike. It gives us a chance to honor the history that bind us and the values that unite us. Liberty. Equality. Dignity. Democracy.

“Bitcoin is not the problem. Fraud is the problem.”


Told ya

Until crypto platforms comply with time-tested securities laws, risks to investors will persist. It remains a priority of the SEC to use all of our available tools to bring the industry into compliance.



I’ll never forget this interaction. When I was still learning about Bitcoin and crypto, people like this fella tried to make me feel stupid. I’m grateful to folks like @real_vijay @saifedean @jack and @saylor for teaching folks like me the basics of Bitcoin.

Can you imagine tracking every cup of coffee or hamburger purchase for currency gains or loses at time of transaction? (Nightmare) Let lightning ⚡️(etc) do its thing.



“The fact that there is no intermediary between sender and receiver is what makes bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies a potent tool.” If you still believe Bitcoin is snake oil or a Ponzi scheme, it’s time to do more research. wsj.com/livecoverage/r…


How it started vs How it’s going. #Bitcoin fixed this. @HonkHonkHodl
