Bitcoin is tariff-proof in design. It doesn’t route through ports, doesn’t care about import math. It’s not made in China or taxed in euros. But if your bleeding from bonds, equities, and EM currency trades, BTC is probably the last thing you’re cutting.
Fiat systems always expand—labels change, but money is still printed. These moves dilute value and highlight the contrast versus Bitcoin’s fixed supply.
Bitcoin has become a mirror to the world's conscience, a relentless leading indicator, warning of dangers we ourselves have created yet still refuse to acknowledge. In watching Bitcoin tremble at each whisper of turmoil, we glimpse the truth Volcker once knew.
Bitcoin dollars can give Bitcoin holders something stable to spend without needing to spend down their BTC balance, and also provide connective tissue between Bitcoin and the current dollarized world.
This week, we're looking at the slow death of Bitcoin's volatility and who might be to blame for that. Spoiler: it isn't a bad thing.
Bitcoin isn't immune to economic pressures. Despite its growing institutional adoption, it continues to display correlations with traditional risk assets during periods of macro uncertainty.
Sometimes Bitcoin is digital gold, sometimes it's a hedge, other times it's a black hole that sucks in all the world's monetary energy.
Imagine a “self-paying mortgage” that weaves your Bitcoin collateral into real estate financing so you can borrow without sacrificing your long-term upside.
We see in Bitcoin what we wish to see: a revolution, a folly, a technology, a philosophy, an investment, a warning, a hope. But no matter the shape of our expectations, Bitcoin continues, unmoved, its progress measured not in days or years but in blocks and confirmations.
Be like the tortoise, measured and deliberate. Align with Bitcoin, step by careful step.
Bitcoin is the kind of finality the world’s monetary experiments have always yearned for and rarely attained. All the alternatives that follow, no matter how ingeniously conceived or lavishly funded, echo like shadows against the cave wall of that first, singular breakthrough.
