'Let me understand…
I saved 30% of my income in Bitcoin over the last five years at an average price of $30,000. I now have 4.25 years of my income in savings.
Within 5 years, bitcoin goes to $500,000. I now have 25 years of my income in savings. I stop saving at this point and simply live off 100% of my income, avoiding selling any Bitcoin.
Within 15 years, Bitcoin goes to $15,000,000. I now have 750 years of my income in savings. I retire and live on >10x my yearly income for the rest of my life, and pass on generational wealth to my children.
Let me understand… why you didn’t listen to the maxis.' - Bit Paine

On the 7th of April:
➡️'Bitcoin has retraced to the 350DMA at ~$76,000! Historically, one of the strongest levels of support for Bitcoin during bull cycles...' - Bitcoin Magazine Pro
➡️ 'Tuttle just filed for a first-of-its-kind ETF: a Double Short MicroStrategy ETF. It aims to profit by shorting both the 2x long ($MSTU) and 2x short ($MSTZ) MSTR ETFs, betting on their decay from daily resets.' - Bitcoin News
➡️3$ billion community bank Union Savings discloses first Bitcoin exposure.
➡️The Rational Root: Bitcoin would have to fall below $64K by next week for the spiral chart to cross the 2021 cycle's first peak (~$64K on Apr 13) Well, that didn't happen. So for now the chart is still valid.
Meanwhile, PlanB was only off by about $320k so far for his April price prediction. Yikes! (I have to admit I fully bought into three S2F models when he came out with it back in 2018)
Personally, I am not fixed on the short-term price, listening to any crypto influencer's "prediction" is like believing in Santa Claus. (Almost) all TA is wrong, very little is useful in the end, and nobody knows shit..including myself.
➡️WHITE HOUSE: “The reserve function of the dollar has caused persistent currency distortions” We’re moving toward a global, distributed, neutral reserve asset for all. You have never needed Bitcoin more than at this moment.

On the 8th of April:
➡️'Bitcoin's hashrate surpassed 1 zetahash for the first time earlier this week. This means that, in aggregate, miners around the world produced 10^21 hashes per second for some time. 1 sextillion hashes. 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.' -TFTC
➡️'Strategy paused Bitcoin buys last week and clarified that shareholders don’t own its BTC. Not your keys, not your coins.' -TFCT Which isn't really news. Common sense: holding exposure, not ownership. "We may be required to sell bitcoin to satisfy our financial obligations, and we may be required to make such sales at prices below our cost basis or that are otherwise unfavorable."
➡️BlackRock expands Bitcoin custody beyond Coinbase. SEC filings reveal Anchorage Digital will safeguard a portion of BTC for BlackRock’s $45B iShares Bitcoin Trust. BlackRock cites the move as part of its “ongoing risk management” and growing presence in digital assets.
➡️Phoenix Wallet is back in the USA. Why are they back?
'We welcome the "Ending Regulation By Prosecution" memo by the US DAG, and the clarity it provides for developers and operators of Bitcoin software. This is consistent with Executive Order 14178 which recognized the importance of "protecting and promoting the ability of individual citizens and private-sector entities alike to [...] develop and deploy software [and] transact with other persons [...] and to maintain self-custody". We are happy to make our products available again in the USA.'
➡️The World Food Program USA now accepts bitcoin! WFP is the world’s largest humanitarian organization and part of the United Nations. Chief Philanthropy Officer says, “Embracing new technologies like cryptocurrency isn’t just a choice—it’s necessary.”
➡️Mastercard partners with Kraken to allow European users to spend Bitcoin at over 150 million merchants worldwide.
On the 9th of April:
➡️VanEck confirms that China and Russia are settling energy trades in Bitcoin. On top of that, the $115 billion VanEck stated on President Trump's tariffs the following: "Bitcoin is evolving from a speculative asset into a functional monetary tool—particularly in economies looking to bypass the dollar and reduce exposure to U.S.-led financial systems."
Meanwhile on the same day...
➡️The United States Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent just ended his speech this morning by saying, “We will take a close look at regulatory impediments to the blockchain, stablecoins, and new payment systems”
➡️Pakistan plans to allocate part of its surplus electricity to Bitcoin mining, Reuters reports.
➡️'In the Swedish Parliament: “No plans for a national Bitcoin reserve – that wouldn’t be wise. We will focus on safe assets that can help us in times of crisis.” A “safe” asset—or an asset to control? Bitcoin is neutral, borderless, and unconfiscatable. It’s the hedge modern nations need.' - BT-Chick
Watch the video here
What are safe assets? Does the S&P have more volatility? US treasuries? haha How can something be more liquid than Bitcoin which trades 24/7/365 on a global scale? What is "safe" is keywords for centralized and controlled. I am not surprised though, they are one of the most conservative countries in the world, HFSP! Tack!
On a side note, Christian Ander on X: "Meeting with an MP on Monday to push the idea of a Swedish Bitcoin reserve. Interest is growing across parties—but still a "no" for now. This has never been discussed this much in Parliament. Clear trend: younger MPs are driving it, and older ones blocking it. Vote accordingly."
➡️The world’s largest credit ratings agency, S&P Global Ratings says, ‘We are focused on Bitcoin. We are focused on its characteristics as an alternative form of money, and the fact it’s decentralized and geopolitically neutral. We are starting to see adoption’ - Reuters Business

https://i.ibb.co/cSqWStcC/Go-I-3-J4-Xg-AATd-Jd.png
if you want to understand what interest rates do to investors, this tweet and graph would be a good immediate transmission on the nature of fake economies. Just be like Warren Buffet, without all the work. Just buy and hold a store of value. Bitcoin!
➡️The $30 billion public company founded by Jack Dorsey, Blocks, just released an open-source dashboard to make Bitcoin more accessible and transparent for corporate treasuries, helping lower the operational barriers for companies looking to add Bitcoin to their balance sheets.
➡️'The S&P 500 is as volatile as Bitcoin now, (and a day later) the S&P 500 is now more volatile than Bitcoin. A 77% standard deviation is NUTS, it's normally 10-15%.' - Eric Balchunas
Stocks merely adopted the volatility. Bitcoin was born in it. No more excuses for TradFi for saying Bitcoin is too volatile.
https://i.ibb.co/1GM2ghtQ/Go-La-Pkd-W8-AAJjz-C.png
For those who think Bitcoin is too volatile.
➡️'One of these things is not like the others. Change in currency supply (updated through 2024): bitcoin vs. global reserve currencies.' -Peter Parker https://i.ibb.co/5QjQ7Rf/Go-Mblov-Wk-AAz4-ZN.png
➡️S&P Global: “Bitcoin holdings may provide a hedge against long-term debasement of fiat currency through inflation, due to bitcoin's finite supply. Its value may also be driven by geopolitical factors if its security and decentralized nature lead to its increasing adoption as a reserve asset.”
➡️Parker Lewis: With or without Bessent, the Fed is functionally leveraging the US financial system by draining the system of dollar liquidity. Taking out dollars doesn't make the debt go away. Eventually, it breaks and the Fed will have to print even more money. It goes on and on until...Bitcoin.
https://i.ibb.co/MDNt07WS/Go-MV-Ho-WYAASy-M4.png

➡️Bitcoin outperforms the NASDAQ in every single timeframe. Bear in mind, that the NASDAQ outperforms the S&P 500, Dow Jones, and Gold. Outperforming short-term in a correction is impressive. Outperforming long-term is simply expected. In the end, everything is going to zero against Bitcoin.
➡️'Trump’s exemption of phones, laptops, and chips from his 145% China tariffs spares HS code 8471, which covers Bitcoin miners. This is a major win for US Bitcoin mining companies, who were staring down crippling price hikes on new rigs.' -Bitcoin News

💸Traditional Finance / Macro:
On the 7th of April:
👉🏽The Hang Seng just closed at 19,828, down 3,021 points or 13.2%, officially entering a bear market, down 20% from its March peak. In China, over 2,000 stocks hit the limit down, and the CSI 1000 futures plunged 10%, also hitting its trading halt limit.
On the 8th of April:
👉🏽Apple flies in 5 planes full of iPhones to avoid US tariffs.
👉🏽'THE S&P 500 OFFICIALLY ERASES +4.5% GAIN AND TURNS RED ON THE DAY. $2.3 TRILLION erased over the last 3 hours. On a point basis, the S&P 500 just posted its largest intraday reversal in history, even larger than 2020, 2008, and 2001. You have just witnessed history.' -TKL
On the 10th of April:
👉🏽The amount of SPY calls increased by over 10x literally 10 min before the announcement. It's very obvious that Trump's "now is a good time to buy" tweet was a way for insider traders to have plausible deniability.
https://i.ibb.co/TxpKMrbk/Go-IB-P8-XYAEp-YV5.png
Explanation: SPY is a way to buy/sell the S&P 500. When you buy a SPY 504 call, it gives you the right (for a fee) to buy a stock of SPY from someone at $504 at any time If it goes up to 554, you make (50 dollars - the fee).
Just so non-traders really understand what happened here: Right before the S&P 500 (SPY) suddenly spiked, someone bought a huge number of call options — bets that the index would go up that same day. These were zero-day options, meaning they expire worthless by the end of the day unless SPY rises quickly. At the time, they were almost worthless. Then, SPY shot up. Those dirt-cheap options exploded in value. A $100K bet turned into $21 million in minutes. That green spike before the jump is not luck. It’s foreknowledge. Someone knew exactly what was about to happen.
🏦Banks:
👉🏽 no news
🌎Macro/Geopolitics:
The current state of Macro & Geopolitics can be summed up like this: Everything about current market dynamics is just ‘Madness!’ Economic policy uncertainty is TWICE the level during the Pandemic.
https://i.ibb.co/SXxTRtMt/Go-Vss-Sq-Wg-AEZAP4.jpg
On the 7th of April:
👉🏽A great post by Ray Dalio on X says tariffs are just the start. In the end, it's about a breakdown of the economic/monetary order (excessive global debt) & the global geopolitical order (US vs China). Basically, Trump is forcing the Fourth Turning through.
https://x.com/RayDalio/status/1909296189473693729 https://i.ibb.co/d0JqLqX9/Go-AO57n-W0-AADosd.jpg
I would say we are at stage 13 - 14.
Tariffs are a symptom of bigger problems. Don’t let arguments about tariffs distract us from solving the bigger problems. Also, governments are dysfunctional and life is hard. It’s the controlled demolition of a dying global system built on cheap Chinese labor, Wall Street debt games, and Washington sellouts. Ray sees the Big Cycle turning.
1) The global debt engine is seizing up. 2) The dollar is cornered by its own inflation. 3) The supply chain is a foreign hostage situation. 4) And the (U.S.) middle class got hollowed out so Davos could cash in.
To summarize: - Tariffs are a symptom, not the core issue. - Economic: Unsustainable debt, trade imbalances. - Political: Inequality fuels instability. - Geopolitical: Shift to a multipolar world. - Natural disasters: More frequent, disruptive. - Tech: AI reshapes economies and politics. - Key takeaway: Forces are linked; study history for future insight.
👉🏽On that same day: China restricts exports of seven rare earth metals to all countries.
👉🏽Lobby scandal: Between 2021 and 2023, NGOs received over €7 billion in support from the European budget. The European Court of Auditors has criticized the lack of transparency in EU funding to NGOs. There is a particular lack of reliable information and insufficient oversight. The European Commission funneled billions of euros to NGOs to promote its own policies and discredit opponents, as now also acknowledged by the European Court of Auditors. With a dubious leading role played by Frans Timmermans and Diederik Samsom.
For the Dutch readers:

👉🏽 'When a university with a $53 billion endowment needs to tap the bond market in this environment, it just tells you just how illiquid their investments really are.' -Mr. Vix Or is it just the game that you need to play? It is just a whole lot easier to do a debt raise than go to all stakeholders to adjust the allocation of the AUM, as all is earmarked, it would be a lengthy process.
https://i.ibb.co/mC0x8gdv/Gn8uzrn-Wk-AEJt6-G.jpg
They tapped the bond market in every prior year and they are rated aaa by ratings agencies. It isn’t just a function of the illiquidity of their investments. They hold about $3 billion that could be liquidated in one day or less (according to their financial statements). The real problem is that a vast majority of an endowment is earmarked for specific purposes—not that it is invested in illiquids.
On the 8th of April:
👉🏽President Trump says "China wants to make a deal, badly, but they don't know how to get it started." He also says that "we have the probability of a great deal" with South Korea after a call with their President.
Scott Bessent, US Treasury: Almost 70 countries have now approached us wanting to help rebalance global trade.
Regarding Bessent, read the following: an excellent thread. 'The Bessent Short' explained, so even you and I can understand it.
thread.exceptional.https://x.com/sethjlevy/status/1909634800136212608
This is a very interesting narrative. If this plays out this thinking was exceptional. Another excellent thread on Bessent: https://x.com/timjcarden/status/1910440389217312784
👉🏽 The People's Bank of China injects a net 102.5 billion yuan in open market operations. Hello, liquidity!
👉🏽There is now a 98% chance of a 25 bps interest rate cut by the June FOMC meeting.
👉🏽The White House says 104% additional tariffs on China went into EFFECT at noon ET today because China has not removed their 34% tariff on the US, per Fox News. US Dollar vs. Chinese Yuan is going vertical, meaning China's currency is depreciating swiftly.
China's beginning currency devaluation is more than just an economic signal—it's a trigger. Historically, when the yuan weakens, capital doesn’t stay put. It escapes. Some of it flows into gold, some into foreign assets—and a meaningful slice finds its way into Bitcoin.
https://i.ibb.co/KpKSLrHd/Go-HRen8-Xo-AAOpi-H.jpg
Regarding the US and China theme above one more interesting stat: 'One shipyard in China made more commercial ships in 2024 than the total number the US has produced since World War II. The destruction of America’s industrial base is a massive national security threat.' - Geiger Capital
Now Europe is going to invest € 800billion in their 'Europe Army'. I am not saying we are getting a World War III, but the dynamics are interesting.
From your perspective, why the above statement from a US perspective is a bad one... Mother Russia is building combat vehicles & munitions at “an unprecedented pace" according to a U.S. commander in Europe. A reinvigorated Russian defense industrial base is rolling out:
-1,500 tanks,
-3,000 armored vehicles,
& -200 Iskander ballistic & cruise missiles this year.
By comparison, the U.S. builds just
-135 tanks/yr and
-0 / no longer produces Bradley Fighting Vehicles.
China now boasts the world’s largest -navy, -army, -air force, and -strategic rocket force. China’s robust maritime industry is primed to build and repair ships at a wartime tempo. In a drawn-out conflict, China would have the clear advantage in building, repairing, & maintaining warships at sea.'

https://i.ibb.co/6G1Z6Nw/Gn-Qc-LVXYAAo-NH6-1.jpg
This is why the tariffs are happening still not sure I agree with the blanket nature of them. It sounds like the US does not understand the macro picture very well and is very overconfident. But who am I to judge?
On the 9th of April:
👉🏽'Oil prices fall below $57 for the first time since February 2021 as markets price in a global recession.' -TKL
👉🏽The European privacy legislation GDPR is a bureaucratic monster created by the European Commission, which stifles innovation and causes enormous economic damage — especially to SMEs. After 7 years, it’s finally being seriously reviewed. GDPR should never have been introduced.
Brussels finally admits it: GDPR was an economic disaster. No kidding! Here's why this rollback could save Europe's dying tech scene
Here is a great thread:
https://x.com/itsolelehmann/status/1909924693819461993
And for anyone who wants to explore the topic in depth: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3160404
On the 10th of April:
👉🏽'Lots of headlines and rumors about Trump "asking the Supreme Court to fire Powell." Here's what really happened: President Trump asked the Supreme Court to "let him fire top officials at 2 independent agencies," per Bloomberg. This could test whether Trump has the power to fire Fed Chair Powell. Trump did NOT explicitly ask to fire Powell.' - TKL
👉🏽'Gold closed up 3.3% to $3082, the biggest one-day jump since 2023, as traders anticipate much more fiat devaluation. A couple of hours later... And there it is: gold soars to new record high $3165/oz as global trade war turns to a currency war and global devaluation.' -ZeroHedge
Gold prices are flying off the chart. If you can’t tell yet, something is broken. Capital flight to Gold and CHF happening now. Eventually Bitcoin. These are not signs of winning. These are signs of the mother of all debt crises.
On the 11th of April:
👉🏽ZeroHedge: "Absolutely Spectacular Meltdown": The Basis Trade Is Blowing Up, Sparking Multi-Trillion Liquidation Panic:
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/absolutely-spectacular-meltdown-basis-trade-blowing-sparking-multi-trillion-liquidation
Explanation: The basis trade is when investors buy Treasury bonds and sell their futures, betting on small price gaps to make money. They often borrow a lot to boost profits, but it’s risky. Right now in April 2025, this trade is crashing, like in 2020. Hedge funds are losing big, selling bonds fast, which spikes Treasury yields and shakes markets. It’s a multi-trillion dollar mess, and some fear it could spark a crisis needing a huge Fed bailout, like last time. The chart likely shows yields jumping, signaling this panic.
👉🏽China raises tariffs on U.S. imports to 125%.
Here’s the real question, who gives up first? 1. President Trump 2. China 3. Bond market At this rate, the 10Y Note Yield will be at 5% next week. Inevitably, one of these 3 factors has to give very soon as this is unsustainable. Anyway... https://i.ibb.co/VYXByy2S/Go-ODsv-OWIAAu-M9v.jpg
👉🏽UK millionaires are fleeing in record numbers. In 2024, the UK ranked second only to China in wealth exodus – ahead of even India. People vote with their feet, and it will happen in Europe, and it is concerning.
Great thread: https://x.com/thealepalombo/status/1910327100286115952
👉🏽US 10Y rises to 4.48%, the largest single weekly increase since 2001. U.S. 30-year treasury yields rise to 4.95%, the weekly increase is the biggest since 1982.
On the 11th of April:
👉🏽European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde: ECB is a ready-to-use instrument it has if needed!
On the same day, FED's Kashkari: The Fed has a tool to provide more liquidity. The Fed is reportedly "absolutely" ready to stabilize the market if needed, per Financial Times. Never discount the power of the bond market or the REPO market.
Coughing and clearing my throat for the people in the back: more liquidity, debt, printing money!
James Lavish: "Choose your phrase for translation:
“All roads lead to inflation.”
“Nothing stops this train.”
“The Fed will print again.”
👉🏽'March PPI inflation FALLS to 2.7%, below expectations of 3.3%. Core PPI inflation FALLS to 3.3%, below expectations of 3.6%. We just saw the first month-over-month decline in PPI inflation, down -0.4%, since March 2024. Both CPI and PPI inflation are down SHARPLY.' -TKL
👉🏽The U.S. budget deficit has risen to $1.3 trillion as government debt interest hits record levels. Data released by the Treasury Department on Thursday showed a deficit of $1.307 trillion for the first six months of the 2025 fiscal year, covering the period from October to March. This was the second-highest fiscal year deficit the U.S. has ever seen, with only the $1.706 trillion deficit in the first half of the 2021 fiscal year being larger.
On the 12th of April: 👉🏽M2 Money Supply going parabolic right now. Bitcoin is going parabolic soon. https://i.ibb.co/FL0W19kB/Go-VLj-Dv-Xk-AAol-Dt.jpg
BTC has tracked M2's movements 80% of the time for the past several years.
👉🏽The US publishes reciprocal tariff exclusions for computers, smartphones, and chip-making equipment. TKL: "Let's put the tariff exemptions into perspective: The US imports approximately $100 billion of computers, smartphones, and chip-making equipment from China PER YEAR. A total of $439 billion of goods were imported from China into the US in 2024. This means ~23% of ALL Chinese imports coming to the US are now exempt from "reciprocal tariffs." This is a massive U-Turn in tariff policy."
The bond market is Trump's #1 priority, and everyone knows it now.
Oh fun note, 2 minutes before the close on Friday someone bought $850,000 worth of SPY 554 calls expiring Monday. This morning the US released tariff exclusions...fascinating innit?
👉🏽If said it before and will say it again. It doesn't matter if the U.S. has a red or blue president. The US government has spent $154 billion more in 2025 than it did over the same period in 2024. Unless treasury yields drop, and fast, no amount of DOGE cutting will stop this from spiraling out of control. https://i.ibb.co/WNVJNxqh/Go-VYumq-Xw-AAod-Sv.jpg
👉🏽RAY DALIO ON DOMESTIC & WORLD ORDER “I think that right now, we are at a decision-making point and very close to a recession. I'm worried about something worse than a recession if this isn't handled well. A recession is two negative quarters of GDP, and whether it goes slightly there, we always have those things. We have something that's much more profound. We have a breakdown of the monetary order. We are going to change the monetary order because we cannot spend the amounts of money.
So, we have that problem. And when we talk about the dollar, and we talk about tariffs, we have that. We are having profound changes in our domestic order, and how ruling is existing, and we're having profound changes in the world order. Such times are very much like the 1930s.
I've studied history, and this repeats over and over again. So, if you take tariffs, if you take debt, if you take the rising power challenging existing power, if you take those factors and look at the factors that those changes in the orders, the systems, are very, very disruptive. How that's handled could produce something much worse than a recession…” - NBCNews
Yes, Bitcoin is the new monetary order, and civilizational infrastructure. Got some Bitcoin?
On the 14th of April:
👉🏽'Global net gold purchases by central banks hit 24 tonnes in February, the most since November 2024. This marks the 20th month of net buying over the last 21 months. Central banks are now on track for their 16th consecutive year of net purchases, according to the World Gold Council. Over the last 3 years, world central banks have acquired a massive 3,176 tonnes of gold. Central banks are buying gold like we are in a crisis.' -TKL
