Remember: this administration made lowering the 10Y yield and energy prices the cornerstone of its economic policy. It has failed by its own standards, & no amount of 5D chess cope can change this. archive.md/JSppU
The 10 Year Treasury yield is near a 19-year high. Almost 1 full percentage point up from the level before the Iran war. When it was at this level in 2007, U.S. debt was 61.5% of GDP, half of its level today.

I host a debate between @JWWeatherman_ and @giacomozucco on whether hardware wallets are a security liability. We discuss the ColdCard entropy backdoor, multi-vendor multisig, the code review process in Bitcoin Core, using generic laptops, and how to think about your threat model
I talk to @BenWestgate_ and @BtCPavao about how to store bitcoin safely with Bitcoin Core on an old laptop, generating and backing up keys, the problems with BIP39 seed phrases, when multisig makes sense, custodians, and why gambling and lending destroy stacks.

I join Mark Moss (@1MarkMoss) to discuss how fiat money and central banking are destroying people's ability to build wealth, why Bitcoin beats gold as a store of value, the recent Cold Card hack, self-custody, and whether borrowing to buy Bitcoin is a smart strategy.
Are you going to do something today to extricate yourself and your progeny from central bank debt slavery, or will you get successfully distracted by stupid, inconsequential bullshit, again?
When shitcoins begin to die, the insiders will usually buy it back to try to fool more bagholders to buy into a pump. The US Treasury is trying this with its shitcoin today, but the bond market isn't impressed, barely moving 3 bps after 3 hours.
Bitcoiner HAC (@heavilyarmedc) invites us to rethink Bitcoin hardware from scratch. What does a signing device actually do, and can you do it yourself? He makes the case for why DIY Bitcoin with generic hardware is better than specialized Bitcoin hardware.

Israel is a government that systematically kidnaps children and locks them up in torture and rape dungeons without trial or charges, but only if they are goyim.
The hasbarists who want endless dollar printing for Israel's wars are all--coincidentally and conveniently enough--adamant that prices aren't rising & you are delusional & entitled for not wanting the value of the dollar destroyed
President @nayibbukele discovers The Imprisoned-Criminal Fallacy, the corollary of The Broken-Window Fallacy, on which all of Keynesian nonsense rests. The Keynesian scammers of the fiat cartel told him that eliminating crime would reduce GDP. Yet in reality, it raised GDP. Thi…

Important security update for anyone using a COLDCARD. A serious vulnerability has been disclosed involving the randomness used by some @COLDCARDwallet devices when generating Bitcoin seeds. If you use one, move your bitcoin to a new seed generated elsewhere.
IMPORTANT SECURITY UPDATE: COLDCARD users who relied solely on device-generated randomness may be at risk from a security vulnerability that may steal your coins. Users who followed best practices and generated their seed with 100 fair, independent, and private dice rolls are no…
Four talks from Rothbard's centenary celebration last month in Porto: Ammous: Rothbard on Palestine Hoppe: Hurdles, Obstacles, and Surprises on the Road to Rothbardianism Kinsella: Rothbard's Greatest Hits De Mombynes: Rothbard & Bitcoin.
Edmund Phelps, 1933–2026: A Scholar and a Gentleman Edmund “Ned” Phelps, winner of the 2006 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences, died in Manhattan on May 15, at the age of 92. The world has lost one of its most consequential economists. I have lost a friend and mentor who was pivot…
No, you did not miss the bitcoin train. We are just getting started. Just because bitcoin went up a lot does not mean it cannot go up a lot more. On the contrary, the more it goes up, the more it demonstrates product-market fit, the more likely it is to go up. Bitcoin is diffe…
The Fed started raising rates in March 2022 with bitcoin at $42k. 40 months later, bitcoin is up 167% to $112k & all the poor fiatbros who said bitcoin is a "low interest rate phenomenon" still have to listen to Fed announcements every month like serfs listening to their lor…

The only reason you could possibly have for not thinking bitcoin is the most important invention in the world is that you're brainwashed by fiat inflation propaganda to not understand the devastating impact of inflation, the world's biggest problem.
5 years ago at the height of coronahysteria everyone worried about their savings. If you put $10,000 in "risk-free" long-term US government bonds, you'd have $6,000 today. If you put the $10,000 in "risky speculative tulip" bitcoin, you'd have $106,000. HFSP, bondcucks!
Astonishing shitcoinery by Milei, shocking even to shitcoiners. He marketed a shitcoin to support the growth of Argentina, received millions of dollars from fans worldwide, dumped his coins, tanking the coin 95%, deleted the tweet, and now expects everyone to just move on.
Javier Milei One Year Assessment Everyone excited about an Argentina economic miracle is basing it on all sorts of government statistics except the most important statistics: money supply measures and public debt growth. Under its new supposedly free-market Rothbardian presiden…
Bitcoin has now been working and trading for 15 full calendar years. It's time to see how it's doing and run some numbers. On Jan 1, 2010, there were 1,624,000 bitcoin in circulation trading at around $0.001 each. The total market capitalization of bitcoin was ~$1,624. On Dec 3…
Every bitcoiner has experienced years of ridicule and insults for believing in bitcoin. When bitcoin hits new all time highs, it is tempting to remember everyone who said something stupid to you and go back and rub it in their face. But you remember that gloating is not nice, and…
All fiat arguments against bitcoin summarized: "Bitcoin doesn't work as money because it makes you rich if you hold it, and money is supposed to make you poor. I learned that in my fiat-financed indoctrination center." #TweetLikeANocoiner
Do you hear that deafening silence? It's the unmistakable sound of thousands of economics PhD's, central bankers, and fiat thibkois ignoring bitcoin.
