We are all underestimating how big this is going to be.
Literally every model will be broken.
The TAM, the GDP, the market caps, the returns.

Everything is going to be SO. MUCH. BIGGER.
It is hard not to be incredibly bullish.

The bears are so wrong that careers will be ended by being on the wrong side of this trade.

And new legends will be born from being long and loud.
There will be volatility along the way, but 20 years from now we’re going to laugh at how wrong we all were.

Single digit trillion dollar market caps will be peanuts.

Add some zeros or you’re not going to make it.
The only thing you can do right now is learn as much as you can.

One hour invested today will likely prove to be one of the best investments you can make.

The world is changing. You either adapt or you die.

Don’t get caught offsides.
Do not be the person who tells their grandkids that they were too lazy to pick up a book, read tweets, listen to a podcast.

Don’t be the person who has to explain why you didn’t have courage to act on the knowledge that was out there.

It’s right in front of you. Open your eyes.

We are watching the automation and democratization of everything happen in real time.

People throw around fancy terms, but it is really simple.

Automation and democratization 👇🏼
Bitcoin is a digital store of value.

Monetary policy is driven by an automated central bank that operates with transparent mandate & is highly predictable.

Anyone in the world can buy, sell, hold, or transact with the asset. No permission needed.

Automation & democratization.
Smart contracts are simply automated code.

An "if, then" statement can change the world. No more middle men. No more rent seekers. Code replaces the parasites.

Anyone can write the code. Anyone can use the code.

Automation & democratization.

Many people know the early milestones of Bitcoin's creation and launch.

There are a few details that I didn't previously know, which I find fascinating.

Here is a running thread of things I've learned 👇🏽
Most people know the bitcoin white paper was published on Oct 31, 2008 and the bitcoin network was publicly launched on Jan 3, 2009

Satoshi mined the first block, known as genesis block on January 3, 2009.

"The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks"
One of the things I didn't know about the genesis block is that Satoshi mined 50 bitcoin, but those 50 bitcoin are technically not spendable.

One of the biggest complaints that I hear across the bitcoin community is that something non-bitcoin is "pre-mined."

This is an interesting concept, but I'm not sure I fully understand both sides of the debate.

Here are a few thoughts & questions 👇🏼
A pre-mine is specifically referring to the creators of a token-based project setting aside (or exclusively mining) a portion of the total tokens for themselves and their team.

There are thousands of examples of this happening.
The critics argue that a pre-mine gives an unfair advantage to the creators of a project.

Also, a pre-mine arms the creators with coins that can be sold into the market early on as the price of the token increases (aka dumping on non-creator token holders).

Warren Buffett is sitting on $149.2 billion in cash right now.

Time will tell if this is the ultimate expression of rationality and patience, or if it is proof that one of the greatest investment runs in history has come to an end.
Buffett and Berkshire have been underperforming the S&P 500 for awhile now, but they outperformed the S&P over the last 12 months. ImageImage
The surprising thing is they created this outperformance while refusing to deploy the massive amounts of cash on their balance sheet.

Whether the last 12 months can continue or not, no one knows.

But the decisions he is making now are going to be fascinating to analyze later.
