The Trump admin told us they were looking to acquire Bitcoin with a "budget neutral" strategy.
Well, they may have just found one:
Engineer a short squeeze on gold, revalue the gold holdings at the peak, and buy BTC.
70% of the world's gold is refined in Switzerland.
So what happens when you slap Swiss exports with 39% tariffs, including the gold bars that New York-based Comex accepts for deliveries?
Suddenly the gold shorters in the United States have a much harder time sourcing gold to cover their positions.
Which means they need to buy existing spot or futures, driving the price higher.
An aggressive short squeeze could force gold towards $6,000 an ounce.
Which would allow the US to revalue its holdings to ~$1.5 Trillion, which would then be deposited into the US Treasury's account.
What could they buy with that $1.5 Trillion?
A ton of Bitcoin.
Are the strange 39% tariffs on Switzerland (nearly the highest in the world) a tactic to force a gold short squeeze so they can revalue their holdings and acquire a dominant BTC position?

Yes, @nprofile…l2yj urged me to give NOSTR another shot. Let's see how it goes

2025-08-07 13:52:38 UTC

Bitcoin wealth levels and primary focus:
Stage 1: You have less than $1 million worth of BTC
Primary focus: Capital Accumulation
Get to $1 million worth of BTC as quickly as you can.
Today that's 8.69 BTC.
Soon it will be 6.15 BTC.
Then 1 BTC.
Stay laser-focused on your business until you bank your first 7 figures.
Do not waste your finite time and attention thinking about trading in and out of assets at this level.
You should be stack-only.
Focus on being useful to others like the robots are coming for your job.
Because they are.
Don't think the path you're on will get you where you need to go?
Then change your path.
Channel your efforts into opportunities with uncapped upside and use various forms of leverage (personal brand, AI tools, code, relationships) for non-linear growth.
Just remember: Working harder isn't the answer. You can accelerate your capital accumulation if you work smart.
Just make sure your upside isn't capped.
One unit of input should lead to multiple units of output.
And your work should ideally compound like your assets.
Where to start?
Helping other people make more money in their business is a good rule of thumb.
E.g. AI is a new tool that few people know how to use effectively.
So help them leverage AI in their business.
There's a million niches within that one obvious idea.
You can figure it out and make anything happen.
If you want to.
Stage 2: You have between $1-$5 million worth of BTC.
Primary focus: Capital Allocation & Preservation
At this point you should increasingly focus on your own investor psychology, mindset, and risk management.
You have some momentum at this stage.
Keep it rolling.
Keep stacking Bitcoin and milking your personal cashflow.
But realize that you're closing in on escape velocity.
And your main job is to not screw it up.
BTC's 40-50% CAGR means you're looking at adding $400-$500K to your net worth on autopilot.
When taking taxes into consideration, that's like earning close to $1 million per year in income and saving all your after tax income.
Something that very few people ever manage to do.
This is the point where your BTC starts to make money faster than you likely can through your own effort.
Which means you should shift a portion of your time into mastering your investing psychology.
You need to be mentally prepared for likely market scenarios.
You need to have a plan.
You need to know yourself, and know how you'll react when volatility strikes.
Do you need a cash pile that helps you sleep at night?
How long of a runway do you need to not panic sell the next dip?
These are questions you must address.
You're on your way to generational wealth.
And you cannot afford to screw up at this stage.
Stage 3: >$5 million in BTC. Escape velocity.
Focus on Time Allocation.
Many people in the fiat world don't see $5 million as "enough" to retire.
But that's because inflation is usually outpacing the returns of their "safe" investment portfolio.
But if you have $5 million in BTC, you're adding ~$2 million to your net worth each year, and it's compounding (as long as you have a long time horizon).
You can spend $20K-$25K a month and still watch your wealth accelerate.
At this point, you should take a minute to recognize that the future is uncertain.
AI and robotics will soon change everything as we know it.
And you will never have as much time as you do now.
At this point, you need to be deliberate with how you allocate your time.
Imagine you only had 5 years left to live; would you be spending your days as you are now?
What would you change?
You've essentially solved the money problem.
Now your focus should be on how to live well in a way that doesn't require extreme extravagance.
That way when you get to $100 million net worth in the next decade you know how to enjoy your good fortune without relying on ever more money to do so.
Find activities that you enjoy and that you can compound over the long-term.
Do things that make you feel alive and don't lead to a "hangover" later.
Prioritize your health and family.
Congratulations, you've won the money game.
And your reward is that now you get to pick a new game to play.
Choose your next adventure wisely.

In 2007 US Debt-to-GDP was 62%. Today it's 129%.
Political insiders absolutely fleeced the country over the past 16 years.
And before they try to convince you it's your patriotic duty to pay off this debt, remember this:
As the bombs dropped overseas, the infrastructure crumbled at home.
Central Bankers suppressed interest rates and enabled political graft while health and education standards fell.
Politicians voted on legislation by day, and managed 7, 8, and 9 figure portfolios by night.
And the media propagandists made sure that the rabble looked left or right, instead of up at the leaders, or down at their pockets being emptied.
So today the debt bill sits at $31.6 Trillion.
And currency debasement is the only way to pay it off.
The plutocrats have gotten theirs, and now they're going to stick the rest of us with the bill.
But there's a way to protect your hard-earned monetary energy: #Bitcoin
It's the only money they can't seize, debase, or manipulate. Which makes it ideal for surviving the coming fiat flood.

YouTube incentivizes surprised soy boy thumbnails
Instagram incentivizes lips inflated to 50psi
Twitter incentivizes outrage and doom
Zaps incentivize pura vida 🤙

For those keeping score at home: New high on the EU 30 Year bond yield. EU05Y as well.
Imagine locking up your money for 30 years in exchange for 2.5% annually paid in EUROS 😂
Complete garbage.

Twitter coins are pathetic.

Once you get used to storing your wealth in Bitcoin it gets really hard to buy assets that you don't have full control over.
Throw in unpredictable supply, limited portability, operational risk, and counter-party risk and very few assets look as appealing as they once did.

2023-02-23 09:58:51 UTC

Of all the places to store the hard won fruits of your labor...
Imagine trusting a scarf-wearing convict and putting it in sovereign debt backed by a hodgepodge of aging + bankrupt countries.

Some popular traders on Twitter that have been bearish since 15K are starting to sound desperate for the orange coin not to bust through 25K 😂 Feels good to stack and chill.

Bottom line: It doesn't matter if it's the US, China, or a crypto scammer creating the money; if it has zero cost of production, it's a shitcoin.

2023-02-21 12:51:04 UTC

China is spreading utterly false propaganda saying that the US creates $100 for only 17 cents, which is unfair because it buys $100 worth of real goods from the rest of the world.
Fact Check: Dollars cost 0 cents to create since they're digital now.

I continue to believe that holding neutral, scarce money is going to be crucial for any investor who wants to protect wealth in the coming years.

Russia and China realize this.
Which is why you can expect attacks on USD reserve status to continue.
The more we approach direct conflict, the greater the incentives to disrupt the system.
And >120% debt-to-GDP + inflation (rising rates) make this a vulnerable system.

2023-02-17 12:09:20 UTC

USD hegemony is a matter of life and death.
Reserve currency status lets the US run multi-Trillion dollar annual deficits while being >$30 Trillion in debt.
And deficit spending funds real-world military growth.
Global seignorage provides a huge military advantage vs. enemies.

The whole point of nostr is that it can't be stopped simply by taking an app off the app store.
If the CCP or Charlie Munger want it banned you're probably doing something right.
