If the Bitcoin “four-year cycle” is broken, It’s broken FOREVER. The consequences of being wrong about the “four-year cycle” are simply too large. We’re talking about generational wealth reordering consequences. The 1% will be fine, the 99% will not be. Keep that in mind as the 1% slams FUD narratives down your throat. Consider the implications: $225,000 Bitcoin price, the market cap of Bitcoin would surpass all of the top pubco’s on the planet. Gold parity would be the final market cap boss to defeat. $MSTR would have $150B balance sheet, and capacity to issue another $40B - $60B in preferred equity. 2nd largest corporate treasury in the world. Pubcos holding Bitcoin around the world will climb the fiat pubco leaderboards, gathering power across the globe. Market cap weighted index funds exposure to Bitcoin will increase, multiples can and will expand. Inefficiencies will be captured and capitalized on. # of pubcos holding Bitcoin will balloon Bitcoin ETF exposure and demand will balloon. Bitcoin is a freight train approaching escape velocity. The architecture of the market has forever changed. Do not underestimate this.

Bitcoin risk is misunderstood The Basel III regulatory risk framework should reward transparency and observability, not punish it. My presentation at Strategy World yesterday focused on Basel III Risk weightings & an institutional framework for Digital Credit & Bitcoin

“Bitcoin is better at being Gold than Gold is Bitcoin is better at being Fiat than Fiat is.” Was true in 2021. More true today. Bitcoin is the first store of value in human history, where its supply CAN NEVER be affected by any amount of increased demand. Focus, run the math.
