To every @Strike customer, thank you for your continued support. We work for you. I know some Bitcoiners hesitated to join Strike because they were worried about a potential relationship with Twenty One. I understood that, and honestly, it always hurt to see. Strike will remain independent, private, under my control, and fully focused on serving Bitcoiners. If that concern kept you from trying Strike, DM me. I’d love the opportunity to earn your business. I’m biased, but I believe we offer the best Bitcoin experience in the world. I’m incredibly fired up to keep building for you all. A lot more is coming soon! 🫡

I've decided to step down as CEO of Twenty One. This wasn't an easy decision, but it was the right one. This experience brought tremendous clarity about who I am and what I want to build. My life's work remains Bitcoin. My Bitcoin company is @Strike. The work continues.

Satoshi solved digital scarcity. Bitcoin solved money. When someone tells you they need another token, a money where they're the central bank, ask: Why? If your product is valuable, why does it need its own money? No man should work for what another man can print.

Trump says he's taking over the Strait of Hormuz, China's AI is getting cheaper and gaining ground, Big Tech suddenly flipped on the AI jobs wipeout, all as yields soar. Where does that leave the orange coin? New episode of Mailbag Monday with @jackmallers is live at 6pm ET 👇

Don't let anyone convince you that Bitcoin belongs to Wall Street or big corporations. Its strength comes from the millions of people around the world who wake up every day and earn, save, stack, and hold. You matter. Bitcoin has always been a grassroots monetary revolution.

Every corner of the economy is quietly moving onto the money of the internet. New businesses on Strike this week: - Catholic Bitcoin donation platform - Investment firm - Moving company - Power washing crew - Jewelry store - Yoga non-profit All choosing to save in bitcoin.

Introducing volatility-proof loans. Borrow against your bitcoin, and the price no longer has a say in what happens to your collateral. No margin calls. No price liquidations. Bitcoin falls 80%? Your stack stays yours. Make your payments. Keep your bitcoin. Ignore the price.

The Fed Bluff, The AI Bubble & The Bitcoin Bottom According to math, the Fed being hawkish is noise. Meanwhile, is the AI bubble showing signs of slowing down? All this while Bitcoin seems to be working on forming its bottom. New Mailbag Monday with @JackMallers LIVE at 6pm ET

Today's Episode is prerecorded as Jack breaks down the market and the idea behind his new essay, The Last Honest Market. Most of modern life is built to smooth over volatility, hide consequences, and make reality feel manageable. Bitcoin is the opposite.

We make Strike better every week. This week was all about access: lower trading fees worldwide, and dramatically lower lending minimums across New Jersey, South Carolina, and Washington. Thread on each below 🧵

More bitcoin for your dollars, starting now. We've lowered our trading fees worldwide, now starting at 0.89%. With bitcoin near its yearly lows, there's never been a better dollar-for-sat moment.

"Crypto" is going to zero. Bitcoin is going to 1M+. I've been working on Bitcoin since early 2013 when it was ~$50. First it was going to zero because of Silk Road. Then Mt. Gox. Then governments were going to ban it. Then it was slow technology and it was going to be crushed by all of the other coins. Then Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX were sending it to zero. Now there are new narratives. New people that are far too levered, don't understand Bitcoin, but are somehow here to fix it. Yet, somehow, here we are. A $1T asset. Bitcoin has been the best thing I could have poured my life into over the last 13+ years. Meanwhile, trust in governments and their ability to stop destroying the people and their purchasing power has never been worse in those same 13+ years. At the end of the day, my advice to you: the Bitcoin journey is a hero's journey. You kill your ego. You surrender the idea that you're the all-knower of the future, the main character, and important enough to matter to this thing. Bitcoin doesn't care what you think and it doesn't need your permission. You either have the balls to build conviction in it or you don't. You built Barstool, you know this. There is no free lunch. Nobody gets paid to show up when things are easy. Life isn't charity. Participation trophies are worthless. Those that end up getting paid do so because they build something that was simply too hard for others. Nobody has to convince you of anything. You have to convince you. If you believe in the government and their ability to not print away your purchasing power, sell us your bitcoins. If you don't and you think Bitcoin is an idea worth believing in, have some guts. Your choice. Bitcoin has been and will continue to be successful either way. It's on a journey of its own and it will be there for you whenever you're ready.

Hidden in the chaos is arguably Bitcoin's greatest adoption story to date. In the middle of a war, a country chose Bitcoin to settle trade. Not gold. Not the dollar. Not stablecoins. Why? Because in the end, the best money wins. Bitcoin is money for all when you need it most.

The legacy system is so levered it can't take crisis anymore, and we have a crisis brewing... PPI ripping, bonds breaking, Bessent folding on Russia sanctions, and why Bitcoin is perfect money because it can't compromise. New Mailbag Monday with @jackmallers LIVE at 6pm ET.

Bitcoin gave the world sound money. Strike gives you the platform to bank on it. From the paycheck you deposit to the bitcoin you buy to the stack you borrow against to the bills you pay, everything you need is in one app. Built by Bitcoiners for Bitcoiners 🫡
