$XXI / $CEP: What happens when the market trades float, not fundamentals?
This is a live case study in SPAC reflexivity raised to the power of BTC. Today, CEP was trading 3–4× its fully diluted NAV — before the S-4 has even dropped.
We’re watching a float illusion play out in real time.
Scarcity + speculation + Bitcoin proxy demand = mania conditions.
The thesis evolves as the tape teaches.
The exit plan matters more than the entry thesis.

Awesome pod, really enjoy you doing this “from scratch” live with us and showing us the process of making a livestream. Things don’t have to be perfect to provide value.
I still mine fiat in the healthcare arena so especially early in this podcast I may not make all of them live.
I have a general thesis on energy I wanted your take on next episode. The simplest take is that renewables (wind/solar) were a noble experiment but don’t work big scale for long term. Like you mentioned, it can be a great way to be more self sustainable for an individual. Maximizing efficiency or oil/LNG is the bridge to nuclear in my opinion.
Similar to bitcoin being a near perfect money, I see nuclear power as the answer for energy that people aren’t ready to accept and won’t accept willingly. People will fight it until they realize their power bill trends towards zero.
I think bitcoin is a long bet on all efficient energy moving into the future so if I wanted to invest long in efficient energy, bitcoin is the answer and I could stop there.
I also think nuclear energy is an investable thesis because it will be so much more efficient once it gets going and it’s currently so “hated” that people are going to be so late to the party on it once it starts.
Do you have any investing insight into nuclear? I personally have a small percentage of my otherwise BTC/MSTR dominated portfolio in NUKZ etf just to diversify into the “theme” while the political/economic picture clears a little bit to see who emerges with an edge.
You don’t have to comment on that portfolio but my question is: how do you balance your investments with what you personally believe should be a winner versus what the society/market makes a winner. One side of coin sees my view on nuclear as a significant edge/alpha to establsh conviction early and ride it out on a longer time horizon. The other side of me says, you can believe in the benefit to society all you want but investing in it as an individual doesn’t make the outcome more likely.
This post got much longer than anticipated and I hope you don’t read it all on next live but if you could address some aspect of it on next show I’ll be watching or rewatching. Zapping you anyway for making it this far.
Thanks Doc

The only was to ensure self correction would be to legislate the stockpile that once all these “experts” and “workgroups” decided how much shit should be in our smoothie is that they commit to holding that for 4 years.

Do I think politicians can keep their hands off anything? No
Could another administration can me undo it? Yes
For this idealistic plan to work would need BTC to perform well, continue accumulating the liquidity from all the other shitcoins over time, and have a strong follow up term in office from anyone who will let the experiment continue.
The proof of work will speak for itself. We/America/politics will delay the inevitable by continuing to try to trade this stockpile

Expanded ideas but 2000 character limit letter which I experienced in my representative’s contact form:
To: [Representative/Senator] [Full Name]
From: [Your Full Name]
[Your Address]
[City, State, ZIP Code]
Subject: Protect Decentralization and Support the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR)
Dear [Representative/Senator] [Last Name],
I am writing to express my concern regarding Ripple Labs Inc. and its cryptocurrency, XRP, which pose a threat to the principles of decentralization and financial freedom. I also urge you to support the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) to safeguard U.S. economic interests.
Ripple’s lobbying efforts against the SBR and promotion of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) align with centralized financial systems that could limit individual freedoms and undermine U.S. leadership in decentralized finance (DeFi). The SBR would function as a reserve of Bitcoin, similar to gold reserves, to stabilize the U.S. dollar, hedge against inflation, and ensure economic security in a digitized world.
Why Decentralization Matters:
Decentralization ensures no single entity controls a financial system, protecting individual autonomy and privacy. Bitcoin’s decentralized nature is its strength, resisting manipulation and serving as a hedge against inflation and authoritarian oversight.
Ripple’s Harmful Actions:
Ripple’s promotion of CBDCs and lobbying against the SBR prioritizes corporate profits over national interests, undermining financial innovation and our global competitiveness.
What You Can Do:
1. Investigate Ripple Labs’ lobbying activities, including their opposition to the SBR.
2. Support the establishment of the SBR to strengthen U.S. financial independence and innovation.
3. Protect decentralized financial systems like Bitcoin to ensure their continued freedom from undue control.
For further insight, I recommend consulting Senator Cynthia Lummis, an advocate for Bitcoin and decentralization. Your leadership is essential in protecting our financial future and maintaining the United States’ position as a global leader in financial innovation.

Subject: Support for Decentralization, Investigation into Ripple Labs, and the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR)
Dear [Representative/Senator] [Last Name],
I urge you to address critical concerns surrounding Ripple Labs Inc. and its cryptocurrency, XRP, which I believe threaten decentralization—a cornerstone of financial freedom—and to advocate for the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) to protect U.S. economic interests.
Ripple’s lobbying against the SBR, a proposed reserve of Bitcoin to strengthen the U.S. dollar and safeguard financial independence, raises serious questions. By promoting central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) over Bitcoin, Ripple aligns with centralized financial systems that jeopardize individual autonomy and U.S. leadership in decentralized finance (DeFi).
Why This Matters:
• Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR): The SBR could secure the dollar’s strength, hedge against inflation, and ensure U.S. economic stability in a digital economy. Bitcoin’s decentralized nature makes it a reliable reserve, free from manipulation.
• Decentralization’s Importance: Decentralization prevents centralized control over financial systems, protecting privacy, autonomy, and innovation while safeguarding against authoritarianism.
• Ripple’s Harmful Influence: Ripple’s promotion of centralization and lobbying against the SBR prioritize corporate profits over national interests, undermining U.S. leadership in the global crypto economy.
What I Ask of You:
1. Investigate Ripple Labs’ lobbying activities, particularly their opposition to the SBR.
2. Support the establishment of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
3. Advocate for policies that protect decentralized financial systems like Bitcoin.
For more insight, I recommend consulting Senator Cynthia Lummis, a strong advocate for Bitcoin and decentralization. Your leadership is essential in ensuring the U.S. remains at the forefront of financial innovation and freedom.

Subject: The Need to Investigate Ripple Labs, Support Decentralization, and Establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR)
Dear [Representative/Senator] [Last Name],
I am writing to bring your attention to critical concerns regarding Ripple Labs Inc. and its cryptocurrency, XRP, which I believe threaten the foundational principles of decentralization and financial freedom. Moreover, I urge you to advocate for the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) to protect U.S. economic interests, ensure financial sovereignty, and reinforce the role of decentralized cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in our nation’s financial ecosystem.
Why This Matters to You as a Congressman:
The decisions you make on these issues have profound implications for our financial future and national security. The cryptocurrency industry, now worth trillions of dollars, is shaping the global financial landscape, with the United States competing against adversarial powers like China to lead in this space. Supporting Bitcoin and decentralization ensures economic innovation, protects individual liberties, and strengthens U.S. influence in global financial markets.
Ripple Labs, on the other hand, is actively promoting central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) over Bitcoin, aligning with centralized financial systems that erode these principles. Ripple’s lobbying against the SBR—a proposed reserve of Bitcoin to stabilize the U.S. dollar and enhance our financial independence—demonstrates their vested interest in steering the cryptocurrency space toward corporate and government control, away from the decentralization that Bitcoin offers.
What is the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR)?
The SBR is a forward-thinking proposal for the U.S. government to hold a reserve of Bitcoin, similar to gold reserves, to strengthen the U.S. dollar and ensure national economic security in a rapidly digitizing financial world. Bitcoin’s decentralized nature makes it resistant to manipulation by governments or corporations, providing an unparalleled safeguard against inflation and economic instability. By establishing the SBR, the U.S. could secure its position as a global leader in the crypto economy and hedge against potential economic threats from centralized systems like CBDCs.
Why Decentralization Matters:
Decentralization ensures that no single entity—whether a government, corporation, or individual—has undue control over a financial system. This principle is critical for preserving individual freedoms, preventing censorship, and safeguarding against the risks of authoritarian control over economic systems. Bitcoin, as the world’s first and most decentralized cryptocurrency, embodies these ideals. It empowers individuals to have true ownership of their wealth, free from centralized oversight or interference.
Concerns About Ripple Labs and XRP:
1. Promotion of Centralization: Ripple Labs is actively lobbying for CBDCs, which would give governments total control over financial transactions, enabling them to monitor and potentially restrict individual financial activity. This runs counter to the values of financial freedom and privacy.
2. Lobbying Against SBR: Ripple’s lobbying efforts against the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve raise significant concerns. By undermining this initiative, Ripple seems to prioritize corporate profits over the broader economic and strategic interests of the United States.
3. Misaligned Interests: Ripple’s actions serve to strengthen centralized financial systems, potentially undermining the United States’ leadership in decentralized finance (DeFi) and its ability to compete globally in this rapidly evolving industry.
What You Can Do:
1. Investigate Ripple Labs’ Lobbying Efforts: Advocate for a full investigation into Ripple’s lobbying activities, including financial contributions to political campaigns, particularly as they pertain to their opposition to the SBR.
2. Support the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve: Champion the establishment of the SBR to secure U.S. financial independence, hedge against inflation, and ensure the dollar’s long-term strength in the global economy.
3. Protect Decentralization: Push for policies that protect decentralized financial systems like Bitcoin, ensuring they remain free from undue corporate or governmental control.
If you have further questions or need additional information on the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve or the importance of decentralization, I highly recommend reaching out to Senator Cynthia Lummis, who is a strong advocate for decentralized financial systems and the role of Bitcoin in protecting U.S. economic security.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I would be grateful for the opportunity to discuss this further or to provide additional information. Your leadership is critical in ensuring that the United States remains a global leader in financial innovation and economic freedom.
Sincerely,

If you change your mind…
Dear [Representative/Senator] [Last Name],
I am writing to express my concern regarding Ripple Labs Inc. and its cryptocurrency, XRP. Their actions appear to threaten the decentralization fundamental to cryptocurrencies. Notably, Ripple’s lobbying against the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) raises questions about their intentions.
Reports indicate that Ripple and CEO Brad Garlinghouse are working to undermine the SBR, potentially favoring centralized control over the decentralized nature of digital currencies. Additionally, Ripple’s promotion of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) over Bitcoin suggests an alignment with centralized financial systems, possibly leveraging their infrastructure.
The implications of Ripple’s influence include:
1. Centralization of Cryptocurrency: By advocating for CBDCs, Ripple may facilitate centralization, reducing user autonomy in the crypto space.
2. Lobbying Against SBR: The SBR aims to strengthen the U.S. dollar and national economic interests through Bitcoin. Ripple’s opposition seems to counter this pro-Bitcoin strategy.
Given these concerns, I urge you to:
• Investigate Ripple Labs’ lobbying activities, including their financial contributions to political figures and campaigns, especially concerning their stance against the SBR.
• Support policies that protect decentralized financial systems, emphasizing the importance of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin that operate independently of centralized control.
The freedom represented by cryptocurrencies should not be compromised by corporate interests seeking centralization for their gain. Your action in this matter would support financial freedom and ensure transparency in cryptocurrency sector lobbying practices.
Thank you for your attention to this issue. I look forward to your response and commitment to addressing these concerns.
Sincerely,

Send to 7 friends or your seed phrase will be hacked by quantum computer 😂
Jokes aside, seriously send this to every representative/senator whose elected job is to represent you and your views.
It’s time to make politicians work for the people again

Dear [Representative/Senator] [Last Name],
I am writing to express my concern regarding Ripple Labs Inc. and its cryptocurrency, XRP. Their actions appear to threaten the decentralization fundamental to cryptocurrencies. Notably, Ripple’s lobbying against the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) raises questions about their intentions.
Reports indicate that Ripple and CEO Brad Garlinghouse are working to undermine the SBR, potentially favoring centralized control over the decentralized nature of digital currencies. Additionally, Ripple’s promotion of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) over Bitcoin suggests an alignment with centralized financial systems, possibly leveraging their infrastructure.
The implications of Ripple’s influence include:
1. Centralization of Cryptocurrency: By advocating for CBDCs, Ripple may facilitate centralization, reducing user autonomy in the crypto space.
2. Lobbying Against SBR: The SBR aims to strengthen the U.S. dollar and national economic interests through Bitcoin. Ripple’s opposition seems to counter this pro-Bitcoin strategy.
Given these concerns, I urge you to:
• Investigate Ripple Labs’ lobbying activities, including their financial contributions to political figures and campaigns, especially concerning their stance against the SBR.
• Support policies that protect decentralized financial systems, emphasizing the importance of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin that operate independently of centralized control.
The freedom represented by cryptocurrencies should not be compromised by corporate interests seeking centralization for their gain. Your action in this matter would support financial freedom and ensure transparency in cryptocurrency sector lobbying practices.
Thank you for your attention to this issue. I look forward to your response and commitment to addressing these concerns.
Sincerely,

If you’re reading this, write your representative and senators. At least make someone in their office read your opinion on the issue. Use grok, chatgpt whatever. It takes 5 mins.

If you’re reading this, write your representative and senators to investigate Ripple/XRP and their corporate greed and lobbying efforts against SBR and freedom for the American people. Their grift on the freedom that bitcoin can bring is not welcome here. At least make someone in their office read your opinion on the issue. Use grok, chatgpt whatever. It takes 5 mins.

A friend put it well recently in conversation. There’s an inherent grift that comes off trying to convince others to get into the bitcoin space because they know you’re a bag holder.
His goal and one I think I’ll adopt is to be a touch point and when they hear about it a 2nd, 3rd, 4th time they will come back interested and wanting to learn.
If you walk the walk, they know where to talk the talk. #proofofwork

Me and my friends just talked about this and we’re split. I think it was coincidence honestly.
If he didn’t launch the shitcoins I may have held on hope he understands the gravity of the SBR/bitcoin.
I do wonder what was the final straw that made him keep the promise or if he intended to do it from the start. I heard rumors Rand Paul sent a letter to him today etc
I hope I’m wrong and it’s all part of the “master plan” but $Trump really disenchanted me…
