This Bitcoin drawdown has been hard.
I really got into Bitcoin into 2021 near the cycle top, I discovered @nprofile…5hgl and @nprofile…xw4q I read @nprofile…gdtv and was all in. I understood the problem that Bitcoin solved and stacked as hard as possible through the bear market and sold every other asset I had.
I have always been focused on the long term but as we started to rally in 2023 and 2024 this was my first real experience of a bull market and with corporate adoption as well as talks of nation state adoption I couldn’t help but think that this was going to be a life changing cycle.
Today sitting at around 60k USD I’m up significantly and my conviction hasn’t changed but I can’t say that it has been easy watching the drawdown from 124K.
Being branded as “the Bitcoin Guy” amongst friends is great when things are going well but when the friend who bought at 100k is asking what’s going on it’s not so easy.
All this to say, I’m not selling, I’m still stacking. I know this is all very fiat brained but it’s real and Bitcoin truly does test you and only those with high conviction and low time preference will survive.

"Allodial title" — land owned absolutely, with no lord above you.
It died centuries ago. Stop paying property tax and you'll find out very quickly who really owns your house.
In the 21st century, every "asset" is rented:
→ Land — from the state
→ Stocks — from the custodian
→ Cash — from the central bank
→ Gold — from the vault
Bitcoin is the first thing in 500 years you can actually own.
12 words. No counterparty. No landlord. No permission slip.
It isn't just an investment. It's individual sovereignty restored.

Holy Monday. The day after the triumphal entry, Jesus walked into the Temple and flipped the tables of the money changers.
“My house shall be called a house of prayer — you have made it a den of thieves.” (Matthew 21:13)
The money changers held a monopoly. They set the exchange rates. They debased the coinage. They extracted rent from worshippers.
Sound familiar?

lol still stacking sats and will never touch my cold storage, but I will admit the strategy thesis is quite compelling. I had a small amount of cash that I keep for expenses so figured makes sense to park a portion of that in the preferred stock earning 10% and help fund Bitcoin rather than in a Monet market fueling fiat🤷🏼‍♂️

In a Fiat system you're incentive is to get as close to and take advantage of the newly created currency to benefit yourself at others expense,
With a Bitcoin standard that dynamic is reversed and creating value for yourself actually enriches every other holder along with you.

Carried some credit card debt for about a year and a half during my last few years at school. I had more than enough BTC to pay it off but couldn’t bring myself to part with the sats.
Decided to sell a small portion of my stack to pay it off a couple months ago and the peace of mind was definitely worth it.
In the time that I held that debt BTC went from around 30k-110k though so it did work out to be a solid play. 🤷🏼‍♂️

#GM friends
I learned a lesson recently and paid for it.
A few weeks ago I decided I would purchase a Nov 7th call option on a Bitcoin ETF just to play around with it as I was feeling confident in the price increasing soon.
The option went from $373 to $750 in the first week and I was feeling like a genius. Part of me felt like I should take the profits but where we were sitting at ATH and still had many weeks to expiration I decided to hold off.
I even had a stop loss in place which could've guaranteed a little profit but cancelled it bc I didn't want it to fill on a dip.
Long story short that option was trading yesterday for just $5 lol.
I am looking at it simply as a reminder why I just buy and hold #Bitcoin and don't try to time it!

2025-10-22 01:16:22 UTC

Been away from #nostr for far too long and I’m glad to be getting back into it!
Little life update:
Recently finished licensing for my role with Fidelity Investments where I got my Series 7 and Series 63 licenses.
Also have begun the process of converting to the Catholic Church which has been something I’ve been feeling called to do for quite a while and am very excited about!
Hope that everyone on here is doing well and I plan to be much more active going forward.
Also deployed one of my #Bitcoin rocks stickers on a hike the other day!

“All voting is a sort of gaming, like checkers or back gammon, with a slight moral tinge to it, a playing with right and wrong, with moral questions; and betting naturally accompanies it. The character of the voters is not staked. I cast my vote, perchance, as I think right; but I am not vitally concerned that that right should prevail. I am willing to leave it to the majority. Its obligation, therefore, never exceeds that of expediency. Even voting for the right is doing nothing for it. It is only expressing to men feebly your desire that it should prevail. A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance, nor wish it to prevail through the power of the majority.”
