Engraved something personal for a buddy of mine at work. Hope it will help him get lucky tonight. #ThoughtsAndPrayers

Only took you two weeks to change your tune.

These will not be permitted in the U.S. because most people are terminally stupid and will say they are bad for blocking views of the landscape or killing birds, or some such nonsense.
That always makes it faster, as everyone knows.
Buying bitcoin with commercial property cash flow can strengthen a balance sheet only if the building's obligations have first claim on the money.
Rent has jobs before it becomes investment capital: operating expenses, debt service, taxes, planned capital work, lender-controlled reserves, and distributions required by the ownership agreement. If money assigned to those obligations is counted as a bitcoin reserve, a vacancy or repair can turn normal volatility into a forced sale.
The useful move is to separate time horizons. Keep practical near-term needs in operating cash. Hold intermediate obligations in assets chosen for liquidity and principal stability. Only capital beyond those demands belongs in a long-horizon bitcoin allocation. An 18-month dividing line can be a planning heuristic, but it isn't a promise that bitcoin will recover on schedule.
Before the first purchase, approve a treasury policy that defines the order of payments, minimum reserves, bitcoin allocation limits, custody, signing authority, and who can change the plan. That policy turns conviction into a repeatable decision while conditions are calm. Bitcoin can add strategic options, but only after the property can keep operating without selling it at the wrong time.
I refuse to use them anymore. Got so tired of asking for it. Now I just build my own.

I’m just going to make a full-page composer now, because why not?

Does Bernie Sanders at least still get to throw people in jail for 20 years?
I am a case study in failure.
That's the thing with bugs, they do stuff that don't make sense at all.
Ooh, I hope it’s another one full of mandatory KYC requirements to be handled by a public-private joint venture of predictable entities with a decades-long track record of data breaches.
Pro tip for nostr devs.
Occasionally check your bandwidth usage, it can get out of hand.

You're seeing the old app we stopped working on.
We'll release the new one soon.
would not go that far, but it is this little cultural expression and an anchor for a story. In a way i felt obligated to get it, and it makes me chuckle ever so slightly every time i see it.
I borrowed against my HELOC at a 5% promotional rate and bought STRC at $94.13 in late September 2025. A $50,000 illustration using my actual economics bought 531 shares.
Over 5.5 months, it collected $2,379 in distributions, paid $1,151 in HELOC interest, and had a $3,129 unrealized gain. Net profit was roughly $4,357, an 8.7% return.
The spread drove the trade. STRC's return-of-capital distributions reduced cost basis instead of creating current taxable income. On March 10, 2026, an 11.5% yield against a 6.98% post-promo HELOC rate produced about $2,260 in annual carry on $50,000.
Debt makes the exit matter as much as the income. If borrowing costs erase the spread, STRC could also trade below $100 par when you need to sell and repay the HELOC. Its variable dividend can shrink, and holders have a preferred claim on Strategy's residual assets rather than a direct claim on its bitcoin.
For a FIRE portfolio, position size is the real decision. Positive carry can fund expenses while your bitcoin compounds, but the position has to be small enough that a bad unwind doesn't force the rest of your plan off course.
