After 8 years in Bitcoin, here’s my personal interpretation of what's happening: The 4-year cycles are dead.
It's a generational handover. OGs are exiting, a new guard is stepping in. For them, around 100k USD per BTC is the starting line, not the finishing line.
Prepare accordingly and buckle up.

💸 What if your family had saved just 10% of each paycheck in Bitcoin?
This chart is jaw-dropping. It shows what would’ve happened if a U.S. median-income family ($92,750 per year) had started saving 10% of each paycheck in Bitcoin ($9,275 annually), starting from different years.
🔹 A family that started in 2018 would now have nearly $480,000 in Bitcoin.
🔹 Even those who started just 3 years ago (2022) would be sitting on ~$130,000.
🔹 One family that began in 2020 has seen their $50K contributions grow to over $207,000.
📉 The red bars show how much they invested (cost basis).
📈 The black bars? That’s what their savings are worth today.
This isn’t financial advice—but it is a striking example of the power of consistent investing, time, and yes, Bitcoin’s volatility and upside.
Whether you’re into Bitcoin or not, the big lesson here: Start early. Stay consistent. Let time work its magic.

Are you as bullish on Bitcoin as BlackRock CEO Larry Fink? 🚀
Regular investors fear the current geopolitical landscape, but people like Larry Fink are seeing the bigger picture.
Fink warns that Bitcoin could dethrone the US Dollar as the world’s reserve currency—unless the US gets its ballooning debt problem under control (which I doubt will happen).
📢 “If the U.S. doesn’t get its debt under control, if deficits keep ballooning, America risks losing that position to digital assets like Bitcoin.”
Meanwhile, BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) is the most successful ETF launch in history (!), surpassing $50B in AUM within months.
Fink sees tokenization as the future, comparing it to the shift from mail to email.
The financial landscape is evolving fast. Are you paying attention? 👀
We just got a positive story about Bitcoin mining from the @BBC.
And you are bearish, anon.
My hot take: There won't be a 'digital euro', at least not the one Lagarde is trying to push.
There are multiple reasons:
- It won't pass all the EU institutions (parliament, council and commission). Even former supporters from the left and greens are now doubtful that the ECB is able to pull this off (see reuters.com/markets/europe/e…).
- Banks will lobby the shit out of every EU politician, so the 'digital euro' won't happen. Simple.
- Most importantly: The ECB still has no clue how to actually pull it off. Check any of the official resources (like eg. ecb.europa.eu/euro/digital_e…). They are not even sure about the very basics, so nowhere near a real technical implementation.
So keep that in mind from now on when you read about the 'digital euro'.
Germany alone is printing €1,500 billion (!), which coincidentally is Bitcoin's entire market cap.
And you’re still bearish, anon? 🤔
Imagine being bearish on Bitcoin while the government of the largest economy in the world tells you "Bitcoin ≠ Crypto" and "Bitcoin = Digital Gold".
Imagine being that stupid.
