So, does it matter that Bitcoin seems to be moving away from its cypherpunk roots? Bitcoin ETFs and Bitcoin Treasuries have taken BTC mainstream. So I asked Saifedean Ammous this very question. His answer might surprise you... 👀👇 "If you have very strong feelings about how people should and shouldn't use Bitcoin, you're in for a rough time." "To be honest, a lot of people project too much onto Bitcoin. Ultimately, it's just a bunch of software and anybody can use it in any way they want. Initially, it's a small subset of people that use it and then they start projecting their values onto it. And then over time, they expect it to continue to abide by that," Ammous said. "If it's a successful technology, it's going to be used by everybody. It's going to be used by small businesses, large businesses, governments, individuals. It's money. Everybody uses money. There are 8.5 billion people on Earth, they all use money and they're all going to continue to use money. And Bitcoin is just the best money." Ultimately, the protocol itself is immune to the financial instruments that TradFi has concocted. If people want to lend against their BTC or create complex financial products, that does not actually impact the underlying network. "The way that the protocol works is that it's completely blind to what you're doing with your coins on the Bitcoin blockchain there is no paper Bitcoin there's no such thing as paper Bitcoin there's only 21 million Bitcoin and every node makes sure of that every 10 minutes and then if somebody who has some of these Bitcoin on their private key decides to sell obligations or financial liabilities referring to that Bitcoin under any condition, that's their choice. It's outside of Bitcoin and it's outside of the realm of other Bitcoin users being able to say this is right or wrong and this should happen or shouldn't happen. People are going to do whatever they want with the Bitcoin, including selling access to it or exposure to it in all kinds of different ways. And if you don't like it, you don't buy it, you can stack your own Bitcoin." You can find the full interview for Cointelegraph in the 🧵.

Brian Preston and Bo Hanson on when financial advisors actually make sense: Asked whether anyone should hire a financial advisor if investing is "really as simple as just buying an index fund consistently," they push back on the framing itself. "Buying an index fund is just one part of the financial planning process. It's the investment part." They're quick to admit that most people don't need to pay a professional: "We don't think that everyone needs a financial advisor with all the information out there on podcasts and YouTube channels and books and blogs. There's so much great free information out there that a lot of people can self-manage for a long time." So when does hiring an advisor actually make sense? They break it down into three specific scenarios: 1. The gravity of your decisions becomes uncomfortable. "If I make a 10% mistake on $10,000, it's not going to change my life. If I make a 10% mistake on a million dollars, well, now I'm starting to impact my livelihood. Now, that might be more than I save in a year, more than I make in a year." 2. Your life becomes financially complicated. "You used to have a two-page tax return and now you have a 100-page tax return or you might have options and RSUs and ESP or you are wondering about what your estate documents should look like… You're an expert in your field in your vocation but you don't know all the financial planning stuff." 3. You have the smarts but not the time. "Maybe you're super super smart and you can do it on your own. And the complexity doesn't even really frighten you, but what you found is you just don't have time to put the energy and effort and attention into it that you would like to. And so naturally, because you have all these other things going on, personal finances falls on the back burner." The common thread? Clients reach out wanting a second set of eyes from someone who has navigated their next stage many times before: "I want someone who's done it a hundred times so they can tell me, 'Hey, what are the things to look out for? What are the pitfalls I should have?'" But if you're early in your career, the advice is refreshingly direct: "It's not super complicated to figure out, hey, I need to make a good income, live on less than I make, follow the financial order of operations, put my money to work, and every dollar that I can save is going to be way more valuable going into my portfolio or funding my financial goals than paying a financial advisory fee."
