It's probably reasonable to expect more and more censorship going forward, especially as the fiat financial system continues to implode, and the regime doesn't want people to understand what's actually going on.

In this video, I discuss how Bitcoin is in the process of demonetizing inferior forms of money like houses and gold, which then frees up those assets for their real utility value.
Rental houses and other investment properties are a better store of value than the US dollar (which is why many wealthy investors and pension funds seek them out).
The problem with rich people using rental houses as a store of value is that it unnecessarily drives up the cost of housing for the working and middle class.
Bitcoin fixes this, by providing an environmentally friendly store of value that does not increase the cost of living for the poor and middle class.
Likewise, Bitcoin is in the process of demonetizing gold, thus freeing it up for the artists and for its use in electronics and other high tech inventions.
Bitcoin makes the world a better place: gold for the artists, housing for the people, and pure ethical digital money for 8 billion people.

In this video, I discuss the various excuses that mainstream media and Keynesian economists use to explain high inflation, from pop concerts to climate change to video games.
The real cause of inflation is money printing by central bankers, who try to do their best to obscure the origin-- and even go as far as ECB head Christine Lagarde and claim that it just appeared "out of nowhere."
Bitcoin fixes this.

In this video, I discuss a common government technique to consolidate and expand control, which is to take advantage of crises to roll out more control and surveillance.
Taken to its logical conclusion, this strategy could be used to set up global government control in response to a real or perceived global threat like a pandemic, cyber attack, alien invasion, climate change, etc.
Our best defense against increased government control is decentralized software protocols like Bitcoin and Nostr, as well as traditional "meatspace" solutions like owning productive land and increasing overall self-sufficiency.
In the coming 12-24 months, I would not be surprised to see a major cyber attack, followed by huge government pressure to institute "internet passports."

In this video, I discuss Nigel Farage having his bank accounts involuntarily closed down in the context of a wider global government crackdown on free speech, as well as the right for anyone to use money and the banking system, regardless of political views.
Cutting off banking access was once a punishment reserved mostly for nation-state actors (Venezuela, Russia, Iran, etc). Over the past few years, we've seen it increasingly used, even in developed countries with rules of law, by governments to target individuals whose political opinions go against the establishment.
"Bitcoin has no use cases except for speculation and gambling" People who say things like this must be blissfully unaware that money and banks have been and will continue to be weaponized against people to stifle free speech, to control the political opposition, and ultimately to control whole populations (like the CCP does to China).
The coming global digital prison will include:
Movement passports
Medical passports
Internet passports
Money passports (CBDCs)
Don't toe the party line? All of your money is instantly frozen by the central bank.
People who value their freedom might want to get their hands on some Bitcoin before CBDCs are rolled out globally.

In this video, I discuss how the Federal Reserve and other central banks must ultimately choose between allowing inflation to run hot, or attempting to control inflation and blowing up the banking system instead.
After signaling that they would keep monetary policy loose, the Fed raised rates at the fastest rate in 80 years and thus rendered large swathes of the US banking system insolvent. To add insult to injury for banks, the Fed has kept the yield curve highly inverted, which also blows up banks' basic business model of borrowing short and lending long.
If the Fed doesn't cut rates soon, banks will continue to blow up.
If the Fed does cut rates, inflation will continue to run hot.
That's the problem with being at the end of the long-term debt cycle-- there are no good choices left.

In this video, I discuss how capital inflows affect the price of Bitcoin.
Contrary to popular opinion, you don't need inflows of $500 billion in order to double the market cap of a $500 billion asset like Bitcoin. In fact, you may require far smaller inflows, since price is set at the margin and the average Bitcoiner is not willing to sell his Bitcoin at any price.
The real question is not "how much money does it take to moon Bitcoin?"
The real question is "how desperate will people become as they see very high and long-lasting inflation worldwide?"
How much monopoly paper funny money will people want to convert to scarce digital gold nuggets?
The answer is 100%
Every last cent of fiat will be seeking a home in Bitcoin before we're done.
Bitcoin is the apex predator of money and will consume everything.

In this video, I discuss Nassim Taleb's recent attacks on Bitcoin in the context of the Lebanon liquidity crisis and Taleb's Wall Street background.
I conclude that Taleb has allowed his own personal animus against Bitcoiners to cloud his understanding of Bitcoin as a real tool and life raft for those trapped in countries with high inflation.
Taleb says that Bitcoin is a useless technology that is fit only for gambling and speculation. But that's just not true. Bitcoin is a useful technology for those who don't want their savings to be confiscated or devalued by their government or central bank.
The Lebanese liquidity crisis is a perfect example of a tragic series of events that Taleb's Lebanese friends and family could have protected themselves from by using Bitcoin.
To claim that Bitcoin has no use case, as Taleb does, is to betray one's own first-world "fiat privilege."
In his CNBC interview, Taleb says that he prefers the Fed over Bitcoin, because at least the Fed can be influenced. Bitcoin will help to fix this corrupt system.

In this video, I discuss whether quantum computers will be able to destroy Bitcoin.
When discussing possible quantum computer attacks on Bitcoin, it's important to remember that there's no community in the world that is more focused on cyber security than Bitcoiners.
By contrast, the US banking system and US government are only able to hire mostly second-rate tech employees who enjoy dealing with bureaucracy and taking long lunch breaks.
Quantum computing is thus a much bigger threat to the US government or the US banking system than it is to Bitcoin.
In the event of a quantum attack on Bitcoin, the current signature algorithms would need to be replaced with a quantum-secure signature algorithm-- and all BTC at those old addresses would need to be moved to new quantum-secure addresses.
This would be disruptive, but would not ultimately destroy Bitcoin. Once you understand that the essence of Bitcoin is the social layer, the social consensus surrounding it, and Bitcoin's whole UTXO set, you begin to see that technologically driven attacks on Bitcoin (like a quantum computer attack) are much less dangerous than social attacks.
The best defense against social attacks on Bitcoin is Bitcoin education for everyone.
If Satoshi's coins ever move, we can be reasonably sure that there is a new powerful quantum computer working in the world.

In this video, I discuss whether it is possible for a government or other hostile attacker to seize or freeze your Bitcoin.
Unlike almost every other traditional asset (stocks, bonds, bank accounts, etc), Bitcoin has no counter-party risk and cannot be frozen at the press of a button.
The only way that someone can steal your Bitcoin is if you store your recovery seed (the human readable version of your Bitcoin private keys) in a place where it can be viewed and used to sign a transaction stealing your Bitcoin-- or if an attacker can get extended access to your hardware wallet and is able to extract your private keys.
In the case of Andrew Tate, it appears that authorities were able to get their hands on at least some of his hardware wallets. But an order to seize his Bitcoin is quite different from the actual act of seizing his Bitcoin, which does not appear to have happened yet.
Multi-sig cold storage is the best solution for long-term Bitcoin savings, and can make it almost impossible for an attacker to seize your Bitcoin.

In this video, I discuss the transformation of investment property from an analog asset to a digital asset in the form of Bitcoin. What has happened to mail, music, video, and social networks is about to happen to investment property as well.
Because analog investment properties are not portable, they are subject to government attacks and exploitation in the form of high taxes, unreasonable restrictions, and ultimately even confiscation.
Bitcoin fixes this by being both scarce and portable, available to you anywhere in the world.
It might make sense to get some Bitcoin before all of the world's billionaires figure out that Bitcoin is much better than analog real estate and move to purchase a lot of it.

In this video, I discuss why real estate may be a very poor inflation hedge in a high inflation environment: repair and maintenance costs can increase faster than the value of the house, which could lead to cash flow problems.
Keeping a rainy day cash fund on the side is not a solution either, since the cash will lose purchasing power unless it is stored in Bitcoin.
Skyrocketing property taxes can also lead to cash flow problems and ultimately result in the owner losing the property at the worst possible time.
Unlike real estate, Bitcoin is more:
-- Portable
-- Divisible
-- Resistant to confiscation
-- Easy to store without ongoing costs like property taxes, insurance, and maintenance

In this video, I discuss possible downsides to BlackRock becoming a large player in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
What happens if BlackRock accumulates a lot of Bitcoin and then loses all of it, such that it is no longer accessible (private keys have been lost)?
In that case, BlackRock has just made a large pro-rata donation to the whole Bitcoin network and Bitcoiners like ourselves.
Could BlackRock issue a lot of "paper Bitcoin" and thus suppress the price of Bitcoin? Possibly, but then so can anyone else.
BlackRock is economically incentivized NOT to suppress the price of Bitcoin, if it wants the largest AUM and hence the most fee revenue as possible.
BlackRock could of course be forced by a hostile outside actor like the US gov to create a lot of paper Bitcoin to suppress the price.
One thing is certain though:
-- Central banks are not going to want to hold paper Bitcoin.
-- Nation-states are not going to want to hold paper Bitcoin.
-- Billionaires are not going to want the counter-party risk that comes with holding paper Bitcoin.
-- Serious Bitcoiners are not going to want to hold paper Bitcoin.
Issuing paper Bitcoin also comes with huge risks. If enough people ask to convert their paper Bitcoin into real Bitcoin (i.e. withdraw from BlackRock's ETF) and BlackRock doesn't have enough real BTC, then they will need to go into the open market and buy real BTC. The resulting spike caused by this short squeeze could easily bankrupt BlackRock.
It's much more difficult to suppress the price of an easily portable digital commodity than it is to suppress the price of a bulky physical commodity like gold. Taking delivery of BTC takes 10 minutes. Taking delivery of physical gold takes a lot more time, money, and coordination. It is also much easier to verify/assay Bitcoin and provide proof of reserves than it is with physical gold.
BlackRock could also fork Bitcoin and create its own proof of stake version. However, they cannot force Bitcoin node operators to run this new software or hodl the new tokens. I would take any PoS BTC tokens issued to me and dump them for real proof of work BTC. Something similar happened with BCH, which made that hard fork unsuccessful. I would also never run a PoS version of Bitcoin on my nodes.
The PoW fork of Bitcoin (i.e. real BTC) will not be just for pirates and El Salvador. It will be for anyone who doesn't want BlackRock to control their money, like:
-- Freedom-minded individuals
-- Billionaires seeking to escape the tentacles of the US
-- Nation-states
-- Foreign central banks
That's a lot of capital, and it's not going to want to house itself inside of a BlackRock or US gov walled garden.
Finally, under a proof of work protocol, owning more BTC does NOT give you additional control over the protocol. In a proof of stake protocol, it does. For that reason, Ethereum better hope that BlackRock never comes out with an ETH ETF lol.

In this video, I discuss the bullish side of BlackRock possibly launching a Bitcoin ETF (technically a trust, but with daily redemptions and creation). In a subsequent video, I will cover possible downsides to BlackRock's entering the space.
Why is BlackRock entering the space bullish?
1) This will mean really large capital flows into Bitcoin, which may enable it to hit a new all-time high in the 12 months after this ETF is approved and starts trading.
2) BlackRock entering the space is validation of our long-held position that Bitcoin will not be banned in the US anytime soon.
3) BlackRock confers an air of legitimacy to Bitcoin as an investment for corporate balance sheets (e.g. MicroStrategy), as well as retirement accounts.
4) By creating a Bitcoin ETF, BlackRock is also implicitly giving its blessing to Bitcoin as an ESG-friendly investment-- which is what it has always been all along.
Bitcoin is much more ESG-friendly than central bankers and fiat money.
Bitcoin is fair and neutral money for 8 billion people.

In this video, I discuss BlackRock's new Bitcoin trust application, the odds of it getting approved by the SEC, and what it means for the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Even though this product is packaged as a trust, it will have daily creation and redemption of units, which means that it should never trade at a significant premium or discount to Bitcoin itself-- unlike GBTC.
This is the real deal, and it may be yet another catalyst for massive capital flows into Bitcoin.
In the next bull market, don't be surprised to see Bitcoin outperform everything else. Liquidity and high market cap beget even more liquidity and a higher market cap, as we have seen with FAANG stocks for the past decade.
Fortunately, the fact that Bitcoin is proof of work means that owning more coins will NOT give BlackRock additional power over the protocol.
Not so for proof of stake protocols like Ethereum, which could easily become captured and controlled by a BlackRock ETF.
Not investment advice! Consult a financial advisor.

In this video, I discuss how the US government is in the process of shutting down ALL stablecoins like USDC and BUSD-- and soon to come, USDT.
The US gov simply will not allow public or private corporations to issue US dollars or USD stablecoins. That is a very special power reserved for the money cartel, Federal Reserve and US banks.
If Circle or Tether were still allowed to do it, what's to stop China or Russia from issuing their own USD stablecoins and thus obtain various currency powers?
The crypto industry still doesn't understand that ALL USD stablecoins are going to zero. They will be regulated out of existence. Expect a lawsuit or other attack on Tether and USDT in the coming months.
When the dust settles, the only major crypto asset that will be left standing in the US is Bitcoin. Prepare your crypto portfolio accordingly.
An implosion of Tether would actually be bullish for BTC, as capital outside of the regulated banking system finds its way from USDT to BTC.

In this video, I discuss the history of Coinbase's S-1 and how all of the warnings about unregistered securities were already present there.
I also discuss William Hinman's famous 2018 crypto speech, which was given while he was on the payroll of a pro-Ethereum law firm and before he went to work for the crypto pump and dump shop a16z.
Unfortunately for the XRP army and Ethereum, Hinman did not and does not have the power to change the Howey Test and 70 years of US securities law.
It's also quite clear that Gary Gensler is coming for Ethereum next. By moving to proof of stake, Ethereum has only made his job easier.

In this video, I discuss how one crypto project after another is being delisted from US crypto exchanges, thus starving these projects of necessary liquidity and accelerating their demise.
If you can buy Bitcoin, but not any other crypto, in the world's deepest and most liquid market (US), this will accelerate Bitcoin adoption and hodling over every other crypto globally.
Even if Bitcoin were to be banned in the US, it still has a robust global social layer of freedom-minded individuals, as well as many merchants who accept Bitcoin and Bitcoiners who are willing to support these merchants in an attempt to jump start a Bitcoin circular economy.
In this circular economy, you will earn Bitcoin (instead of buying it on an exchange) and you will spend Bitcoin (instead of selling it for fiat on an exchange).
No other crypto has anything close to Bitcoin's social layer and emerging circular economy.
Network effects and liquidity matter.

In this video, I discuss the bond market pricing in a Coinbase bankruptcy.
Coinbase has a large amount of debt and negative free cash flow. When you combine this with the possibility that it loses access to the US customer market, there is a good chance that this stock is a zero.
Coinbase bonds are already indicating such an outcome, trading at junk yields.
I think it's a good idea to remove all fiat cash and Bitcoin from the platform-- unless you want to end up being included as one of the creditors, as happened with BlockFi and Celsius.

In this video, I discuss the ongoing implosion of crypto in the wake of the SEC Binance and Coinbase lawsuits.
There are rumors that market makers are fleeing Binance, at the same time that crypto hedge funds are rushing for the exits. There is a very real chance now that BNB goes to zero and takes down Binance worldwide.
Investors are finally waking up to the fact that their garbage tokens like ADA, SOL, MATIC, etc are all unregistered securities and are about to be driven out of the US.
There are rumors that Gary Gensler will be going after crypto VCs next.
When this great flushing event is over, Bitcoin will still be there-- pumping out new blocks every 10 minutes and as strong as ever.
If you are going to invest in a crypto, you might want to check first to see if it is resistant to a full frontal assault by a hostile government.

In this video, I discuss the risks of using a hot wallet on your phone or desktop to store your long-term Bitcoin savings.
Any device that can be connected to the internet is less secure and can inadvertently expose your private keys.
By contrast, a good hardware wallet will both generate your private keys and sign your transactions inside the hardware wallet and will not expose these to the internet.
Hot wallets on your phone or desktop are fine, but treat them like your physical wallet or purse. Don't keep more money in them than you would be comfortable walking around with.
A phone is never a good place to store your long-term Bitcoin savings. Use a hardware wallet instead (single sig or multi-sig).

In this video, I discuss the various ways in which crypto is an attack on both Bitcoin and freedom.
Crypto projects like Ethereum/ConsenSys and Ripple/XRP are actively soliciting and collaborating with governments to build government surveillance coins like central bank digital currencies (CBDCs).
Ripple/XRP is responsible, in my opinion, for funding much of the energy FUD against Bitcoin that we have seen.
If you support or own any crypto besides Bitcoin, you are actively helping to fund the opposition and slow down the Bitcoin revolution.
Not investment advice! Consult a financial advisor.

In this video, I discuss the ongoing carnage in crypto land, as well as how Bitcoin will be the only crypto left standing.
The SEC is seeking to freeze all Binance US assets, while ETH is clearly being grouped with other securities in the Coinbase lawsuit. Expect SEC lawsuits against ADA and ETH in the coming months.
Meanwhile, Gary Gensler was on CNBC saying that we already have a digital currency called the USD. Too bad it is such a bad store of value and has been weaponized as a political cudgel (thus no longer being a neutral global medium of exchange).
Bitcoiners know that it's impossible for Gensler to do to Bitcoin what he's doing to crypto casinos and unregistered securities masquerading as crypto.
State-sponsored attacks on an asset are a part of the free market competition between different forms of money.You might want to pick a money like BTC that can actually survive such an attack.

In this video, I discuss why I believe that Bitcoin is a much better investment than real estate.
Unlike real estate, Bitcoin is:
-- Portable
-- Seizure-resistant
-- Without ongoing property taxes, insurance, or maintenance costs
In short, Bitcoin does not leak "economic energy," while real estate certainly does.
In addition, the Bitcoin network enforces your property rights when you own Bitcoin.
When you own real estate, you need to trust your government, police, judicial system, and military to respect and protect your property rights.
When a regime turns sour, Bitcoin provides a way for people to exit and opt out by moving to a more friendly jurisdiction.
Owning Bitcoin is like having a bank account in cyberspace that no one can censor, confiscate, or devalue.

In this video, I discuss how the US government is indirectly funding Tether mining Bitcoin in Uruguay.
Thanks to Fed monetary policy, high US Treasury yields are now enriching stablecoin issuers like Tether, who benefit directly from the interest income.
Tether is now using that income not only to mine Bitcoin and help to secure the network, but also to accumulate Bitcoin.
The Bitcoin community is grateful to the US Treasury and the Federal Reserve for continuing to pump and secure Bitcoin.

In this video, I discuss how Bitcoin block space is prime real estate, both for financial transactions, as well as for embedding things that you wish to distribute globally and free from censorship for all time.
Non-financial uses of Bitcoin blockspace like inscriptions will almost certainly get priced out by financial uses of Bitcoin blockspace over time, but it is important in the meantime not to throw the baby out with the bath water by advocating for rolling back updates like Segwit or Taproot.
I also discuss Erik Cason's ideas about creating a "Library of Satoshi" on the blockchain.
It might make sense to embed important documents on the Bitcoin blockchain before we enter an era of global surveillance and rewriting history.

In this video, I discuss the breaking news that the US Bitcoin mining tax has been eliminated from the debt ceiling bill.
This was an unfair tax that politicized the use of electricity and would have had the undesirable effect of driving large US Bitcoin mining companies to dirtier grids overseas.
Banning Bitcoin or Bitcoin mining is like sawing off the branch that you are sitting on. It ends up hurting you and your country much more than the branch.
If you support technologies that make human lives better like:
Light bulbs
Electricity
Running water
Indoor heating and cooling
Then you should also support Bitcoin, which offers private property rights for 8 billion people that protects them from dictators and totalitarians.

In this video, I discuss how Fed money printing has been the primary way that the US has financed its foreign wars over the past 20 years.
When you have only a small percentage of the population actually fighting in a war, and that war is being funded by inflationary money printing (or by shifting the debt burden to subsequent generations)--
It's quite likely that you will end up with more expensive and more useless wars than you otherwise would have.
Under a Bitcoin standard, no nation will be able to go to war without the express social and financial approval of its population, who will need to be willing to fork over some of its Bitcoin to fund the war.
When you hear "fiat money," you should immediately think of lies, broken promises, death, and destruction.
By contrast, Bitcoin promises to usher in a more peaceful and just society.

In this video, I discuss Worldcoin, Sam Altman's project to scan the eyes of poor people in exchange for a shipcoin, and use this biometric data as a global surveillance tool.
We CANNOT allow ourselves to be put into a digital prison of CBDCs, movement passports, medical passports, internet passports combined with personal biometric data.
Such a digital prison would be almost impossible for humanity to escape from.
Bitcoin will play a major role in protecting the self-sovereignty and monetary control of people against totalitarian governments and corporations.

In this video, I discuss why Bitcoin-only hardware wallets are best.
Hardware wallets that support 6,000 shipcoins/altcoins need to have much more complicated hardware and software than wallets that support just BTC. This increased complexity results in a much wider attack surface, which makes the wallet less safe for ALL coins.
By contrast, Bitcoin itself has extremely good native security, both for single sig and multisig, which Bitcoin-only hardware and software wallets can leverage.
I cannot recommend any altcoin wallets, because I cannot recommend holding altcoins at all.

In this video, I discuss different approaches to starting new Bitcoin citadels and Bitcoin countries.
Perhaps the best solution is an interconnected global network of Bitcoin citadels that each cater to the peculiarities of their residents. This decentralized approach would be much more difficult for nation-states to attempt to stop.
Bitcoiners are already a global tribe, a decentralized and distributed country of like-minded people who love Bitcoin but still pursue their many individual interests.

In this video, I discuss how US politicians from both sides of the aisle are increasingly courting Bitcoiners. This was unthinkable even 5 years ago, but will increase going forward.
Bitcoiners will continue to gain wealth when measured against holders of fiat and crypto-- and they will hopefully use that wealth to support political candidates who see the value of a neutral money like Bitcoin.
In a worst case scenario, Bitcoiners can also vote with their feet and money by moving to a more friendly jurisdiction. It's easy to take your Bitcoin with you, but not your stocks, bonds, gold, real estate, etc.
It is important to tell every politician that you are a one-issue voter: "I am pro-Bitcoin."
Let's come together over Bitcoin and heal the divisions between the left and the right.
Bitcoin is a modern and neutral form of money that everyone can get behind, regardless of their politics, race, nationality, gender, etc.
Bitcoin is ethical money for 8 billion humans-- and offers us an exit that will lead to a much brighter future for humanity.

In this video, I discuss "crypto dysphoria," by which I refer to crypto projects that are unregistered securities masquerading as commodities, in order to skirt US securities law.
Ethereum clearly passes the Howey Test, as well as having these markers of centralized projects:
-- Leader
-- Foundation
-- Roadmap
-- Trademark
When Ethereum is forced to register with the SEC as a security, not only will there be large fines involved, but Ethereum will also need to disclose all material information related to the project's principals and their holdings, prospects, risks, etc.
Unlike Ethereum, Bitcoin is a true asset without an issuer, hence a commodity.

In this video, I discuss how Bitcoiners moving their Bitcoin holdings into multi-sig makes all Bitcoiners safer. Once thieves learn that most Bitcoiners do not store all of their keys at home, future home invasions and break-ins should become less frequent.
At bare minimum, Bitcoiners should withdraw their Bitcoin from the exchanges and hold it on a hardware wallet (single sig cold storage).
The next step is to move that Bitcoin into multi-sig, where multiple keys are required to move the Bitcoin. The gold standard of multi-sig involves using hardware wallets from different vendors, as well as distributing those hardware wallets geographically.
"Not your keys, not your coins." If you need to ask someone's permission to move your Bitcoin, then the Bitcoin doesn't really belong to you.
Multi-sig also helps to mitigate against supply chain attacks, especially if you use hardware wallets from multiple vendors.
At the end of the video, I discuss collaborative custody solutions like Casa and Unchained, as well as the possibility of building your own multi-sig vault for maximum security and privacy.

In this video, I discuss why Bitcoin will most likely be the primary medium of exchange for the coming machine to machine (m2m) economy.
Autonomous AI vehicles and robots will probably choose to accept Bitcoin for payment over fiat or other forms of crypto, simply because Bitcoin is the most neutral and most sound form of money ever discovered.
It's easy to envision a future where an AI contractor is given a Bitcoin wallet and funds to employ an army of AI builders and workmen to build or print you a house.
Most people are not as smart or economically literate as AI and will be left holding the fiat bag, losing purchasing power to inflation and monetary debasement and confiscation.
By contrast, AI will understand the history of currency debasement and will demand the soundest and most secure form of money that is available.
If you think that AI is coming for your job and if you want some cheap insurance against becoming obsolete as a human being, it might make sense to buy some Bitcoin just in case.

In this video, I discuss the recently launched Ledger Recover service and what it implies about security problems with the Ledger hardware wallet.
I have always recommended against using Ledger hardware wallets, especially in a single sig setup. The fact that the firmware was and remains closed-source was always a deal-breaker for me. Ledger's many customer data leaks also showed a remarkable disregard for user security and privacy.
Now we learn that the new firmware (which is still closed-source) will have the ability to export encrypted shards of the recovery seed. Here's the big problem in my opinion: if the new Ledger firmware has the ability to split the recovery seed into 3 encrypted shards and send them out from the hardware wallet-- this is not only a feature, but also a potential vulnerability that can be exploited by an attacker.
What happens when a government goes to these 3 custodians and forces them to reconstruct your private key from the 3 shards, after you have KYC'd yourself?
Stick to Bitcoin-only hardware wallets that have open source and viewable firmware, like the Blockstream Jade and ColdCard hardware wallets.

In this video, I discuss how countries with significant energy resources will increasingly use those resources to mine Bitcoin. It makes much more sense to recycle oil profits into Bitcoin, rather than holding them in Treasuries, which are a poor inflation hedge and subject to US government censorship.
What this means is that Bitcoin global adoption will continue to rise, as individuals, corporations, and even entire countries pursue their own self-interest.

I also discuss how there is no such thing as the "blockchain industry."
Blockchains are a pretty useless technology (centralized databases will work better in almost all cases), unless they use proof of work and are truly decentralized like BTC.
"Blockchain industry" is nothing more than:
-- Unregistered securities masquerading as money.
-- A temporary regulatory work-around whose days are coming to an end.

A bankruptcy judge has concluded that BlockFi customers lost the rights to their Bitcoin once they deposited them onto the BlockFi platform.
And the IRS has filed claims worth $44 billion against the FTX bankruptcy.
Former customers of BlockFi and FTX will be very lucky to see pennies on the dollar returned to them, after many years of legal wrangling.
We need to do a better job this cycle teaching new Bitcoiners the importance of "not your keys, not your coins."

In this video, I discuss Bitcoin IRAs and the risks that you take on if you allow a custodian to hold your Bitcoin private keys.
"Not your keys, not your coins."
In an Executive Order 6102-like situation, any Bitcoin held by a third-party custodian (including retirement accounts) could and would be seized by the US government.
A much better solution for Bitcoin IRAs is to use something like Unchained's multisig product, where you hold 2 keys and Unchained holds 1 key.
In a severe crisis, the US government and central bankers will do whatever is necessary to protect themselves, even if that involves stealing private property from American citizens and residents.
For some people, it may (at least hypothetically) make sense to cash out their IRAs, pay the very steep penalties, and move the proceeds into anonymous Bitcoin. It really just depends how bearish you are on your country, and how bad you expect things to get.
That's not financial or tax or legal advice.

In this video, I discuss your legal protections under the US Constitution-- and how they rapidly disappear when you need them most (in a real or pretend "state of emergency").
In a crisis, a government will drop its benevolent mask and do anything and everything necessary to protect itself.
Even the US Constitution was not able to protect investors from the US breaking its promises to US bondholders in 1933 and paying them back with paper money instead of gold.
Under Executive Order 6102, President Roosevelt stole the private property (gold) of millions of Americans, and Congress and the Supreme Court went along with it.
It's much better to protect your own rights through cryptography-- by holding Bitcoin.

If Bitcoin has no utility, why are so many governments and central banks so eager to ban Bitcoin?
Late last week, the Argentina central bank prohibited banks and other financial services companies from offering Bitcoin to their customers.
The Argentine government and central bank are trying to prevent further capital flight, as inflation skyrockets and the Argentine Peso (ARS) continues its fall.
Bitcoin is an excellent hedge against hyperinflation, money printing, and central banker incompetence. That is why it is so important to accumulate it now, while it is still relatively easy to do so.
Governments and central banks around the world will continue to try to close the exits, as they continue to boil their populations alive with inflation.
Bitcoin is an essential life boat in this environment.

In this video, I discuss the full mempools and high transaction fees that are currently taking place with Bitcoin.
Is this a DoS attack, or congestion caused by inscriptions and BRC-20 tokens, or something else?
It's difficult to know for sure, but if this is an attack, it is doing a great job of enriching Bitcoin miners, which is not the best way to destroy the Bitcoin network.
Bitcoin transaction fees are a free market, and vary wildly over time. The alternative is more undesirable (having a central authority set transaction fees).
Are Bitcoin transaction fees too high or too low? And what makes you think that you know the answer to this question better than the free market?
Being able to transact on the Bitcoin network will become one of the most important activities on earth-- and thus will probably not be cheap to do.
This is a good thing, since it means that Bitcoin miners will continue to be paid to order transactions and blocks-- even after the block subsidy has gone away.
Not investment advice! Consult a financial advisor.

In this video, I discuss how trapped the Fed really is.
If the Fed keeps monetary policy tight, it risks a continued unwind of the banking system, as well as plunging Federal tax revenues, which require even more government debt to be issued.
If the Fed loosens monetary policy, the US will experience very high inflation.
I think that the Fed will ultimately be forced to choose the path of money printing and high inflation.
Austerity never works, as politicians who endorse it are always immediately voted out.
Bitcoin remains the best safe haven from bumbling central banks, in my opinion.

In this video, I discuss the White House attack on Bitcoin mining in the form of the proposed DAME tax on the electricity used by Bitcoin miners.
Not only will this tax drive Bitcoin miners to countries with dirtier grids, it is an unfair attack on a completely legal and legitimate industry that provides jobs and tax revenues.
Usage of basic utilities like electricity, water, internet, etc should not be politicized. If a political party imposes special taxes on industries that they don't like, they should be ready for an opposing political party to do the same thing to them when they retake power.
Is this really how a government should interact with an economy? Does this provide a stable backdrop and rule of law that allows for businesses to make good long-term capital allocation decisions?
No, it doesn't.

In this video, I discuss how the Kingdom of Bhutan has been mining Bitcoin for years.
This fact was recently revealed in the BlockFi and Celsius bankruptcy filings, and Bhutan has confirmed it. Bhutan appears to be using mostly electricity generated by hydro, which would make its Bitcoin mining operations among the greenest in the world.
Now that both Bhutan and Russia and probably many other countries are mining Bitcoin, it's time for the US to start mining Bitcoin, accumulating Bitcoin, and setting up a strategic Bitcoin reserve similar to Ft Knox.
