@PGSA_IRAN. با احترام، در حال نگارش مقاله‌ای پژوهشی هستیم و نیازمند توضیحی دقیق هستیم. آیا ممکن است بفرمایید عوارض عبور از تنگه هرمز صرفاً به بیت‌کوین پرداخت می‌شود، یا سایر ارزهای دیجیتال نیز قابل قبول است؟ پیشاپیش از لطف و توجه شما سپاسگزاریم.

Study Bitcoin. For your family, your business, your community, even for your country.
Swiss National Bank: “If necessary, we will not hesitate to reintroduce a negative interest rate.” Study Bitcoin.

La BNS a un problème, et Bitcoin pourrait bien être (une partie de) la solution. Oui oui, pour de vrai. Le franc suisse n’a jamais été aussi fort face à l’euro et au dollar depuis 2011. La @SNB_BNS a même rompu avec son silence protocolaire pour menacer d’intervenir sur les marchés des changes. Et les conflits en Iran et à travers la planète n'arrangent pas les choses, au contraire. Et si #Bitcoin était une alternative sérieuse à la stratégie habituelle qui commence à battre de l'aile? Sérieusement et pragmatiquement. Mon dernier billet à lire dans @BilanMagazine, à partager avec vos amis banquiers centraux. 👉 bilan.ch/story/bitcoin-la-bn…

Anyone in my network could help me get in touch with journalist and author Jack Hitt @JackHitt? Can't seem to find a direct email address to reach him. Context: I was quite touched by his piece on the island nation of Nauru @Republic_Nauru, and as I have developed a potential solution to the core problems he described (and more recent additional ones), I would very much value his perspective. Thank you. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_H…

Dear @GreenlandMFA @Naalakkersuisut, have you considered mining Bitcoin and claiming your independence through financial and energy sovereignty? "EU or US" is not the only alternative." Let's talk.

The majority of @SNB_BNS reserves are invested in US dollars (39%) and euros (37%). (Gold is only 9.3%!) Should Switzerland protect its sovereignty and independence by allocating 1% of its reserves in Bitcoin? Are you Swiss? Do you use the Swiss franc? What do *you* think?
«Bessent is saying is that the US will now treat US allies' wealth as an American "sovereign wealth fund", "directing" them, "largely at the [US] president's discretion."» Dear @SNB_BNS, is this where you still want to invest most of your reserves? Or should we finally talk about #Bitcoin seriously? 👉 initiativebtc.ch/ 👉 @initiativeBTC

Bitcoin strategic value reaching all corners of the globe. Starting with energy-savvy countries. Soon Switzerland🇨🇭?
This week in central banks Bitcoin reserves: 🇰🇿 Kazakhstan "The National Bank of Kazakhstan plans to establish a state-managed cryptocurrency reserve, according to a Monday report by government news agency Kazinform." 🇮🇳 India "The national spokesperson for India’s ruling party called on the country to consider launching a Bitcoin reserve pilot, saying that it would be a strategic step toward economic resilience." 🇺🇸 Texas "Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed Senate Bill 21 (SB21), officially authorizing the creation of the Texas Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, a state-managed fund that will hold Bitcoin as part of the state’s long-term financial assets." 🇨🇭 Switzerland Are you paying attention, @SNB_BNS ?

Times are changing.
"Central banks' gold stockpiles are close to levels last seen in the 1960s (...) It is now second only to the US dollar as their biggest reserve holding in value terms, the ECB said." -- @CNBC Dear @SNB_BNS, shall we have a chat? You know where too find us.🤝

Where do you stand?
Switzerland is heading towards a number of contested votes. Superficially, they are about a trade agreement with the European Union. But deep down, they embody a clash between a centralized and a decentralized system. It is about trusting the experts vs. trusting the citizens. It is about whether the people should serve the state or the state should serve the people. It is about regulatory monoculture (aka "harmonization") vs. competitive diversity. Collectivists like @enussbi intuitively support the deeper integration and automatic adoption of future EU regulation, while a number of indomitable patriots like @hjbertschi defend the values that make Switzerland unique within Europe. Where do you stand? I'm with the decentralists.

Comment défendre la neutralité et la souveraineté de la Suisse alors que la majorité des réserves de la BNS (qui protège la stabilité de l'économie suisse et du CHF) sont en dollars et euros (bonds, actions...)? Pour que la Suisse puisse négocier sur un pied d'égalité, il faut que notre économie soit adossée à une réserve *neutre* ne pouvant pas être manipulée facilement par une autre nation. Cette neutralité, c'est justement ce que propose l'initiative populaire @initiativeBTC Plus d'infos à 👉 initiativebtc.ch

There is *too much* energy.
To be clear, this is electricity ALREADY PRODUCED, delivered to your socket and transformed into heat and light for NOTHING. For reference "phantom" standby waste in the US is ~110 TWh, ie 0.4% of global electricity. Do you know how much Bitcoin global mining consumes in total?

"Bitcoin is not liquid enough."
Swiss National Bank @SNB_BNS President Martin Schlegel interviewed by @BloombergTV on Bitcoin. No surprise, sadly. Still the same unconvincing narratives proving he didn't do his homework. This is why it's so important that YOU (and your friends) sign the Bitcoin initiative!
