The average rich American doesn't trust Bitcoin.
Getting a nest egg was hard.
You had to save, and work hard.
Handing it for magical internet money is a big ask.
The entire system is based on money printing
- On paper, nominal financial gains are taxed at 30-50%
- These pay for a big chunk of govt spending (35% of economy
- Because of size of nominal returns vs real returns, 1%+ can by skimmed by the Financial sector (17% of the economy)
- The entire political class is motivated by printing.
So basically > 50% of the economy is motivated to print.
Two small asks:
1. Spend an absurd amount of money on It's the most expensive and also the very best Bitcoin conference on the planet. But it's worth it.
2. Stop trying to time Bitcoin, hedge Bitcoin, trade Bitcoin or write "research reports on why Bitcoin will go down and then up". Admit that you don't know the short term future. And live with it.
An actual 𝕏 Spaces conversation I listened to recently:
"So you believe in Bitcoin?"
"Million plus, long-term. Super bullish."
"You hold any?"
"No, I'm fully out. Waiting for $40–50K in Oct/Nov for the cycle low."
"So you're a bullish Bitcoiner… who owns zero Bitcoin?"
"Yes."

NAKA’d (verb) — /nah-kahd/
To lose substantial money in a Bitcoin-related stock while believing you were getting safe or amplified Bitcoin exposure.
To be destroyed by dilution, leverage, treasury-company hype, or secondary offerings despite Bitcoin itself remaining stable or rising.
Example usage:
“Bitcoin was flat but my portfolio got absolutely NAKA’d.”
“He thought he was buying BTC exposure. Instead he got NAKA’d.”
“Read the ATM filing before you get NAKA’d.”
