Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
Daddy State said he wouldn't sell the bitcoins obtained through extortion (and you're happy about that); By doing so, Daddy State legitimized the image of bitcoin in the eyes of the market (and you're happy about that); Daddy State also said that maybe, in the future, he could buy bitcoin by selling other properties (and you're happy about that).
You took the cookie that Daddy State promised you and now you're wagging your tail.
This is what you've become, dear bitcoiner: the pet of those who promised you the absolute nothing, mixed with the flavor of state extortion. I expect you to become his guard dogs as well.
We are not the same.

Gold Standard: over. Dollar Standard: declining phase Bitcoin Standard: emerging phase.
Bitcoin will be the next global monetary standard. Let's start denominating things accordingly. It is not 1 BTC = 100,000 USD. IT IS 1 USD = 1,000 SATS
The ultimate goal is not Store of Value; The ultimate goal is not Medium of Exchange; The ultimate goal is Unit of Fucking Account.

Bitcoin has no intrinsic value, experts are right. Too bad they forget how the financial system has proven time and again that intrinsic value provides no guarantee: rules of the game changing from month to month, privileges rewarding a few, debt choking families.
While central banks and governments play rewrite the rules to their advantage, Bitcoin remains firm: transparent, unchanging, accessible to all.
Experts tell us there is no value in any of this. Perhaps they are right, or perhaps their decline is already confirmation of what they fear most: Bitcoin's success.
The analysis in the new Bitcoin Train article.

Double Attack on #Bitcoin from the ECB and the FED.
The synchronicity with which the ECB and the Federal Reserve attempt to discredit Bitcoin with two new papers—filled with arguments as strategic as they are fragile—is curious.
ECB: In the document titled “The Distributive Effects of Bitcoin,” Ulrich Bindseil and Jürgen Schaaf assert that “Bitcoin does not increase the productive potential of the economy.” They go on to claim that Bitcoin’s alleged value stems solely from “speculation,” which is bound to “benefit early entrants at the expense of newcomers.” Basically, Bindseil and Schaaf have discovered the wonderful world of supply and demand dynamics within that mysterious entity called “the market”—perhaps too complex to grasp for those dreaming of a Soviet-style economy.
FED: The Federal Reserve of Minneapolis doubles down in their paper “Unique Implementation of Permanent Primary Deficits?” suggesting that if Bitcoin became widespread, the government would no longer be able to generate deficits. “The government could simply make Bitcoin illegal.”
The fallacies in the arguments of the money monopolists are addressed in a counter-paper that debunks the arguments from Frankfurt point by point.

How to reach mass adoption
David Bailey - 10 years as head of Retail Marketing at Apple and now CMO of Azteco
- tells #BitcoinTrain why it takes changing the #Bitcoin narrative to reach the general public.
“Customers of a technology product are divided into two parts. The 'early market - about 15 percent of the total market - and the mass market, 85 percent. Between them there is the so-called 'chasm,' a chasm to overcome.”
“In Bitcoin we are almost at the end of the early adoption phase and the challenge is to cross the chasm so as not to get lost in the middle. To do that, we need to stop talking about how the technology works and start explaining to people how they can use it safely to gain real benefit from it in their daily lives.”

Money Electric is a documentary that effectively explains several aspects of Bitcoin in a way that is both compelling and easily understandable.
On the other hand, the misleading portrayal of events like the Blocksize War and the relentless search for a conspiracy to destroy Bitcoin—both tainted by the biased opinions of individuals defeated by history, like Roger Ver and Gavin Andresen—undermines the solid foundations initially laid with the description of the technology.
Lastly, such a blatant ad hominem accusation, supported by such flimsy evidence, is ridiculous. Just for the sake of creating a sensationalistic product and selling a few more subscriptions, HBO has endangered @Peter Todd : this is unacceptable.

"The Silent Adoption: Part 2" is live!
Bitcoin's organic growth, driven by genuine interest and word of mouth, is both its greatest strength and biggest challenge. From grassroots communities to global crises, Bitcoin is silently revolutionizing the world, even without a marketing department.
Explore how the failures of traditional systems become Bitcoin’s unintended advertising, and why its decentralized nature fosters innovation and ideological clashes alike.

Three major institutional players—Switzerland’s SIX, Germany’s Commerzbank and DZ Bank, and U.S. giant BlackRock—have embraced or are considering to embrace Bitcoin, signaling a quiet but profound shift in the financial landscape.
As traditional finance integrates Bitcoin, a game theory dynamic is at play: institutions, driven by economic incentives, are compelled to participate, legitimizing the asset while eroding the foundations of the fiat system.
This 'silent adoption' strengthens Bitcoin and poses a growing threat to the traditional debt-based economy, as every move into Bitcoin weakens the demand for fiat currencies.
The details in my new article for Bitcoin Train.
