Every major financial institution has now shifted their position on Bitcoin. The Overton window has officially been moved and sound money is now a mainstream opinion.
JUST IN: The largest bank in the U.S. JPMorgan is forecasting Bitcoin to outperform every major asset over the next decade. You are not bullish enough 🚀

Presenting Bitcoin. You might want to get some just in case.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight at you, then they add you to their Long-Term Capital Markets Assumptions paper and predict you'll be the best-performing asset of the next decade.

J'ai vu une Tesla décoller. Et j'ai entendu beaucoup de bêtises. « Ça ne sert à rien. » « Gadget de milliardaire. » « Qui a besoin d'une voiture qui vole ? » Personne. Et c'est exactement pour ça que c'est important. En 1978, Brabham a aligné en Formule 1 une voiture équipée d'un ventilateur géant à l'arrière. Il aspirait l'air sous le châssis et plaquait la voiture au sol. Elle a gagné sa première course avec une avance insolente. Elle a été interdite immédiatement. Quarante-huit ans plus tard, on y revient. Un système de succion qui colle la voiture à la route et lui permet de passer sous la seconde au 0 à 100. Personne n'a « besoin » de faire le 0 à 100 en moins d'une seconde. Comme personne n'a besoin d'une Formule 1. Et pourtant : les freins carbone de votre berline, l'hybridation de votre moteur, l'aérodynamique de votre SUV, les palettes au volant — tout ça vient de voitures de course que personne n'utilisera jamais pour aller au travail. La Formule 1 ne sert à rien. Pourtant elle sert à tout. En 1973, quand la France a lancé Ariane, l'Europe sortait de onze échecs consécutifs du programme Europa. La presse parlait d'argent jeté dans l'espace. Vingt ans plus tard, Ariane détenait la moitié du marché mondial des lancements commerciaux, et chaque satellite de télévision, de météo ou de GPS que vous utilisez a bénéficié de cette obstination. Le progrès a toujours la même tête au début : un truc inutile, cher, ridicule, construit par des gens qu'on prend pour des fous. Ce que j'ai vu à Dallas, ce n'est pas une voiture volante. C'est un châssis, une gestion de l'énergie et une maîtrise des flux d'air que l'industrie automobile mettra dix ans à digérer. Les applications viendront : sécurité, freinage, stabilité, consommation. Elles finiront dans des voitures ordinaires conduites par des gens qui expliqueront, en 2036, que tout ça était évident. La question n'est jamais « à quoi ça sert ». La question est : qui ose encore construire des choses qui ne servent à rien ? Il y a cinquante ans, c'était nous. La fusée, le TGV, le Concorde, le Minitel. L'Europe construisait des choses absurdes et magnifiques. Aujourd'hui, on commente depuis le siège arrière car nous sommes hors course. Merci @elonmusk de nous faire rêver

The debasement of currency is the root cause of so many issues society is facing right now, and yet most people have no idea. Until we address this fundamental issue, we’ll continue to vote for misleading and populist solutions that will make things worse. Fix the money, fix the 🌍 @River

Energy capacity is the single foundation for any prosperous nation. Australia urgently needs to address this if we want to build Australia into the coming wave of innovation and advanced manufacturing. We must develop nuclear technology with the urgency of a war footing. We have so much potential, we just need the ambition.
Energy capacity = economic capacity, in one chart There are no low electricity, rich countries

The debasement of our money is the root cause of the biggest challenges we face. Cost of living, housing crisis, sovereign debt crisis, political extremism, social unrest. Until we fix the money, we can’t fix the 🌍
Henry Ford’s factory workers earned $5/day salary. At the time that salary bought 5oz of gold per month. Henry Ford paid his factory workers~$20k/month salary in today’s dollars. We don’t need a minimum wage, we need hard money.

JUST IN: Legendary American financial advisor Ric Edelman compares buying Bitcoin today to buying Amazon in 1999: "Back in 1999 people were arguing over whether to invest in Amazon. Nobody has that argument. Everybody owns it, and Bitcoin will have the same trajectory in the future."

PSA - do NOT click on links in emails (no matter who they're from, or appear to be from). Do not accept phone calls from numbers you don't recognise, and be very cautious even if the number does seem to be from a bank. In the UK, scammers pretending to be the police are now frequently calling... Essentially accept that we live in a low-trust/zero-trust society now, and behave accordingly.

Walking meetings are always the best meetings
Søren Kierkegaard on the Importance of Walking “Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday, I walk myself into a state of well-being & walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, & the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill. Thus if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right.”
