today’s show is gonna be a blast:
- the AI boomers are a joke. red flags everywhere, just like SBF. i’ll break down just how full of shit they are
- speaking of these AI labs being full of shit, if AI needs to slow down, how are we gonna “grow our way out” of the debt?
- which beings us to yields screaming higher. with this much debt, you either default or print. tick, tock.

Ego is the most expensive burden a person can carry.
Bitcoin is an ego test. It's a journey that comes with humility, then curiosity, then experience, then wisdom.
Ego is fiat. Wisdom is proof of work.
Kill your ego. Ask questions. Stay curious. Keep learning.

i coded a dashboard this weekend that shows how you can use Strike’s new Bitcoin Line of Credit product to speculatively attack fiat and live your life on bitcoin.

the Strike line of credit may be my favorite thing we’ve ever built. it’s unbelievable.
- it’s an open term loan. no origination fee, no early repayment fee, and you only accrue interest on what you actually use
- it’s a payment method. i can withdraw cash from it instantly, i can pay bills with it, i can even stack sats with it
- because strike is effectively a bank, i also have my paychecks land there, and can configure my paychecks to pay down my line of credit
how do i live on bitcoin?
i have a bitcoin line of credit on Strike. i spend on credit cards, and pay my HOA, ComEd, credit card, and other bills with my line of credit. i also have small DCA going on the line of credit at these price levels. my paychecks come into strike and i configure it to pay down my line of credit and stack sats with the excess cash. i never have to sell my bitcoins and deal with tax triggers.
this also ensures my LTV is never dangerous. i don’t need to borrow a massive lump sum at once and risk a dip. my LTV for a line of credit is like less than 1% of my bitcoin.
a financial account from the future.
we start rolling it out externally next week. so excited

Some more color on the Line of Credit product we're rolling out:
Most Bitcoin-backed credit today is structured as a 12-month term loan.
That product makes sense if you're financing something discrete:
– a wedding
– a home renovation
– starting a business
– a major life event
You take a chunk of capital upfront, lock in the term, and deploy it. We see this a lot.
But a 12-month loan doesn’t solve for something much more common: What's the best way for me to live on my bitcoins?
If you're not financing a large one-time expense, taking 12 months of capital all at once can sometimes increase risk.
Because Bitcoin is volatile. If you borrow a large amount upfront and the price drops significantly, your starting LTV might be 50%. Now you're stressing about margin calls, collateral top ups, etc. Many people actually don't use Bitcoin credit products for this exact reason.
If you didn’t need all that capital in the first place because you are just trying to pay normal bills, that’s where a Line of Credit is different and extremely valuabke.
With a Line of Credit, you don’t take 12 months of capital on day one.
You draw what you need, when you need it. You pay interest only on what you draw.
On Strike, it acts as another payment method like a linked bank account. Have a bills to pay? Select your line of credit as your payment method.
Now combine that with:
– Direct Deposit
– Bill Pay
– Buying and saving in bitcoin
Here’s what Strike enables:
You hold some portion of your savings in Bitcoin that you're comfortable with on Strike.
A bill comes in: your mortgage, HOA, utilities, credit card, etc.
Instead of selling Bitcoin (and triggering capital gains), you draw a small amount from your Line of Credit to cover the expense.
If your Bitcoin savings are substantial relative to your monthly expenses, your is not 50%, it's probably closer to 1%.
Completely different risk profile and allowing people to use bitcoin as an active savings account that benefits their everyday life!
Then your paycheck hits via Direct Deposit.
You can:
– Pay down the balance entirely
– Pay it down partially
– Or manage it however you choose
You’re dynamically financing your life against your savings instead of liquidating your savings.
Strike enables you to own more BTC. Accumulate more than you otherwise would and sell less than you'd otherwise have to. That’s how you live on an appreciating asset without constantly selling it.
The 12-month term loan still has its place. It’s a great product for specific use cases.
But a Line of Credit turns Bitcoin from something you occasionally borrow against into something you can build a financial life around.
Direct deposit.
Bill pay.
Buy and hold bitcoin.
Line of credit.
All in one place.
Strike is starting to look like a bank account from the future. This is only the start of what will be a massive 2026 for us. Can't wait to get this to you guys. We are cooking!

genuine question: do people actually believe this?
to state the obvious, my business incentive is to keep the loan open for as long as possible. i get paid servicing my customer.
“taking their bitcoin” onto my balance sheet would be about the dumbest way imaginable for me to acquire bitcoin.
if i want to buy bitcoin at these levels (which i do every day, regardless of price), i buy it with profit.
we don’t lend out cash from our balance sheet because we don’t want to own billions of dollars of fiat. Strike owns as much bitcoin as possible. we lend out fiat that we got from someone else.
when a loan gets liquidated, it’s because i owe that cash back to someone else who gave me fiat. if the customer defaults, i have to sell the bitcoin to get them back the cash.
what do i want? i want bitcoiners to have healthy loans and never sell, forever. i buy bitcoin with the money i earn providing the service…
duh?

fascinating correlation between bitcoin and software right now.
software is getting clobbered due to AI and the US attempting to divert liquidity from frothy tech multiples to reshoring and domestic infrastructure.
as part of that unwind, bitcoin is taking a nosedive with software tech.
as brutal as the dip has been, maybe this is the beginning of bitcoin parting ways with its "tech" asset owners and moving on as a sound money asset?
thats the topic today. about to go live

People can say whatever they want.
What they can’t say is we don’t show up, we don’t listen, we don’t bust our ass, and we don’t care.
Keep the feedback coming and let me know how we can help

All services are functioning and online. Thanks for your patience and support.

bitcoin and the end of globalism
gold, silver, and japan are telling us fiat as we know it is did. we live in the best timeline. what a time to be alive.
also, over the weekend I built a bunch of AI tools that enhance my ability to produce keynotes and express my ideas. this weeks livestream presentation is the quality of when I present at conferences. really cool and really exciting.
going live at the top of the hour. join me, fellow plebs. see you soon.

Ok, let me clarify the premise.
As I said on the show, I’ve never been against owning equity. I’m the largest holder of Strike and one of the largest holders of XXI. I own a ton of equity.
My criticism has never been “equity is bad”. My criticism is using equity as money.
Equity is an investment. It carries counterparty risk, execution risk, and time risk. If you’ve already created value and are trying to save it, you shouldn’t be forced to take risks just to save.
That’s why Bitcoin is different. Bitcoin is money. Equity is a claim on future execution of said business.
When equities simply track debasement, or underperform hard money, I find them pointless and greatly misleading. The US stock market is now this (S&P 500 for example). A ponzi-retirement account for the US that gets bailed out at every dip. Strike is not that. XXI is not that.
As for the “tough guy” moment, these shows are unscripted and raw. They’re different. I do them for fun. For personal enjoyment and real connection with likeminded people. I also do them in part to remind everyone the human element behind everything we experience. The things you see around you everyday are made by people no greater than you. We are all just people, capable of hopping on a stream and shooting the shit, trying to find our way.
I don’t do the show for money, ads, or optics. I’m not trying to be polished TV. If that ever becomes the requirement, I’ll just stop doing the show. If Im not having fun with it, I’ll be done with it.
There are guys that come at my family and my livelihood all day everyday. A little banter is fun! Cmon, this is Bitcoin.
Anyways, I’m always happy to engage honestly with questions, especially when they’re asked in good faith. I will reference this exchange on the next episode. If you have follow
up questions, please don’t hesitate

venezuela wasn’t about oil.
behind all of the political theatre are three important things:
- critical minerals
- countering adversaries
- confirmation that the post-1971 dollar is dead
