I've learned a lot about Solana and meme coins over the last 24 hours.

Here's the download.

First of all, the Solana ecosystem is far slicker than I thought. Compared to eth, polygon, or anything else that uses Metamask there is no comparison. Phantom wallet feels like an Apple product, MetaMask feels like Windows 3.1. When you combine the speed of the dexes, I don't think any thing else can compete at the consumer level.

Second, since Saturday when Trump launched his meme coin, followed by Melania, followed by WLFI raising an additional 250 Million, followed by the possibility of the Bitcoin reserve actually containing XRP, followed by XRP and SOL ETF applications, we have to accept the reality that this new world will not be Bitcoin only.

Does this change that I still think Bitcoin is the best asset? no. But I think the pure maxi narrative is now out of sync with the current administration. You can't be anti XYZ meme coin and pro Trump coin. The rules apply to everybody.

So the game has changed. When the game changes, you need to change.

THE GREAT TREASURY BUBBLE

August 2025 – August 2026

How Bitcoin treasury giants like Metaplanet and Strategy fueled a parabolic rise to $444K—and triggered a collapse to $84K

1/13
📅 Monday, August 11, 2025
Bitcoin: $132,000
Metaplanet: ¥1,537 | mNAV: 4.6× | BTC holdings: 15,555

Simon Gershowitz shocks markets: Metaplanet adds 5,445 BTC, reaching the iconic 21,000 BTC milestone.
Funded by:
- A ¥100 billion BTC-backed loan via Goldman Sachs Japan
- Issuance of JSTRK, a Japanese-registered yield note modeled after Strategy’s STRK

Bitcoin surges to $138,000 by day’s end.
Gershowitz on X:

“A company that holds Bitcoin is a company that holds time.”

In his new book, "How Countries Go Broke" Ray Dalio states the core function of banks is to "match lenders and borrowers, earning a spread".

I will add:

"That function is being completely replaced by Bitcoin and DeFi."

Banks are obsolete. 🧵
For centuries, banks served as trust brokers. They held your money, lent it out, and skimmed the spread. That worked in a world of paper, middlemen, and closed systems.

But today, trust is programmable.
Collateral is digital.
Settlement is instant.
The bank is just code. 2/N
We saw this play out first with exchanges.

Back in 2018, I told Miko Matsumura that DEXs would replace centralized exchanges.

It took a few years, but now it’s obvious: Uniswap, Raydium, Jupiter — they’ve already won.

8%. Thats a pretty key number.
----------------------------------

Since 2000 Global Money supply has been growing exactly at 8%. 1/N Image
Same with US Debt. Steady grower at 8% 2/N Image
If you add in dividends, The SP500 has just about matched it. After tax, of course, you lose a minimum of 25% 3/N Image

Something new is happening.

For the last two years, Gold and Bitcoin have decoupled from Real Interest Rates (HT @LynAldenContact) . We are witnessing a stampede into hard money, at the same time real rates soar. 1/N Image
Why now?

For the last 30 years, we have been on a steady increase in overal debt. This was funded by an increasing size of the Social Security trust, which peaked in 2020.

But now the demographics have changed. The trust is being depleted. The math is working in reverse 2/N Image
As my generation (the Boomers) start drawing down that trust, it will be a net seller of US Treasuries.

The ponzi scheme has ended. The train is not just "unstoppable", it's officially "off the tracks".

This is not just the 1970s. It's much worse. And there is a new alternative.

Hold your Bitcoin for dear life.
