Happy new year to all of my friends and to all #Bitcoin holders and believers: this is your year!
To hard-working investors and entrepreneurs who have not yet discovered the hardest form of money, I invite you to read my book, Bitcoin Supercycle (Skyhorse, 2024), which debuted as the best selling new release in the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency category on Amazon. To understand is to believe.
I appreciate all of the great thought leaders and champions who came before me, and especially those who continue to move the narrative of “the money of freedom” forward in 2025, from @saylor and @DavidFBailey to @ErikVoorhees and @realDonaldTrump.
$100k is just the beginning…
This is the main caution on my upgrade. Money coming in while price refuses to stay higher means somebody is selling into that money at exactly these levels.
Resistance sits between $85,000 and $87,000. Until #Bitcoin closes above that band and stays there, the flows are being absorbed rather than driving anything.
Spot #Bitcoin ETFs took in $528.40 million on October 21, a third straight positive day. The number that matters is that eight of twelve funds bought and not one of them sold.
More than most people think. We built @mediaclawnews to take on the process work, so people can stay focused on judgment and relationships.
How much of PR should be automated? @commprobiz takes on that question in its look at what we’re building.

#Bitcoin closed Saturday at $83,062.80. My line for moving off neutral is a close above $83,300. That is a gap of $237, which is close enough to be frustrating and far enough to still count as a miss.
The other half of the test cannot move on a weekend at all. ETFs do not trade Saturday or Sunday, so the three-session counter sits at zero with Friday's $21.1 million as the most recent reading. #Bitcoin
Risk Dimensions' Mark Connors argues the crash showed derivatives can drive Bitcoin's near-term price more than on-chain demand does. That inverts how most people assume this market actually works. #Bitcoin
One year ago today #Bitcoin fell from about $122,000 to $105,000 in minutes and roughly $19 billion of leveraged positions were liquidated. It remains the largest such event in crypto history.
This is the single most consequential crypto story of the week and it will get a fraction of the attention a 2 percent bitcoin:native move receives. The settlement layer of US markets is migrating.
