Good evening.

The Fed has a long and storied history of misreading the economy, and the markets have a long and storied history of misreading the Fed.

Have a great night.

Thus far, Vanguard has 'protected' its clients from 160% gains since the Bitcoin spot ETFs were announced last year.

Good morning.

As @jackmallers just said, “The future isn’t something we wait for, it’s something we build. Choose ethical money. Choose freedom.”

And have a great day.

Good evening.

The thing about volatility is it provides opportunity. The thing about opportunity is you have to seize it. And seizing it requires conviction. Start there and work your way backwards.

Have a great weekend.

Go ahead. Give the bank your money. See if they give it back. How many questions they ask. And how long it takes. Do it.

Dare you.

Reverse sear. It’s the little things in life.

Good evening.

Embrace the volatility.

And have a great night.

Good afternoon.

Markets got hammered on worries about the economy, North Korea stole $1.4B of ETH from a massive exchange, and Bitcoin is still trading at $95K.

Have a great weekend.

Good morning, Nostrs.

It’s a great day for Bitcoin $100K.

Have an awesome Friday.

Some of the smartest institutions are already buying Bitcoin. They’re just being quiet about it.

Bernie Madoff didn’t want to be audited either.

Remember: The US government needs Bitcoin far more than Bitcoin needs the US government.

Remember: Pullbacks are normal and part of any healthy bull run, mere consolidation before resumption of extended strength and true price discovery.

Good evening.

We are going to have an election. One of the candidates will take office. The government will continue to run massive deficits. The money supply will continue to expand. And #Bitcoin will go higher.

Have a great night.

Good morning.

The US deficit is on pace to be $2.1 trillion in 2024, compared to a deficit of $1.7 trillion in 2023 and $1.4 trillion in 2022. That is $400 billion higher in a year, and $700 billion higher in two.

Have a great day.

gm nostrs let your friday be as peaceful as this

Powell, when asked about his reasoning behind the rate decision tomorrow:

“I come from a middle class family…”

Good morning.

US debt now stands at $35.3 trillion. If we were to return to 0% interest and make payments of $1 million per hour, it would take approximately 4,023 years, or until the year 6,047, to bring the debt back down to zero.

Have a great day.

With widespread and relentless propaganda-style mainstream media, understanding the political and financial landscape requires a higher level of critical thinking than ever before. Stay vigilant out there.

Good evening.

Cheating, lying, stealing, killing, and more war is not the answer.

Have a good night.

Good morning.

Kamala Harris received zero votes or delegates and was chosen as the Democratic Party nominee by the current government overlords instead.

Have a great day.

Good evening.

In August, the US government took $307 billion in taxes and spent $687 billion, for a deficit of $380 billion. This works out to be an annualized deficit of $4.56 trillion.

Have an awesome weekend.

Tether generated $5.2 billion in profit in the first half of 2024, and with 123 employees, this is an annualized profit of $85.5 million per employee. 🤯

good evening nostrs Montana river view

good evening nostrs, view from the montana lake today

Night nostrs ✌️

Founder Mode is the default setting for #Bitcoiners.

You all didn’t think we would go #Bitcoin parabolic without one more test, did you?

Good evening.

There are two ways this economy can go, and both of them end in massive money printing.

Have a great weekend.

It’s amazing how so many people are currently selling Bitcoin, and I’m pretty sure I do not know a single one of them.

The government is currently the primary driver of job ‘growth’. This means the need for ongoing and expanded federal deficits, and federal deficits are inherently and long-term inflationary. This is how you manufacture a ‘soft landing’.

Good evening.

In case you were confused by the title, The Inflation Reduction Act did not, in fact, reduce inflation.

Have a great night.

You all are so far ahead of the Twitter curve. I’m explaining to someone about fractional banking over there. Normies are so sadly lost in this maze of financial repression.

Hello.

The US government now pays over $3 billion of interest on its debt per day.

Have a great Thursday.

California wildfires clouding the LV strip today.

For everyone who is getting fatigued with Bitcoin’s recent price action:

Over the last decade, the average return in #Bitcoin for the top 10 days each year was 184%, and the average return (loss) for all of the remaining days each year was −10%.

Patience eventually pays off, big time.

With this morning's JOLTs data showing that job openings are falling--well below estimates--and layoffs increasing, futures show a 47% chance of a 50bp rate cute in September, up from 37% yesterday. And bad news is once again 'good news' for the markets.

Welp. Nikkei 225 down 3.7% and the usd/yen headed lower. Looks like we’re about to see just how much of that Yen Carry Trade is still out there.

Good evening nostrs. Keep your eyes on the horizon.

The market is reacting negatively this morning to extremely poor ISM manufacturing data.

Here’s the TLDR: Demand fell, inventories rose (due to unsold stock), and prices rose (due to labor and shipping costs). In essence, this is stagflation (higher prices in a stagnant or slowing economy).

The Fed’s worst nightmare.

Good morning.

Once the world realizes that you don’t need a PhD or math degree to understand #Bitcoin, that you just need to open your mind and critically think, it will soon right itself.

Have a great Labor Day.

gm nostrs, enjoy your day of rest
