When we’re done, everyone everywhere will know the name Nakamoto.

you can nobble your nodes if you want. you can fork off and find out if you want. or write a sternly worded letter to the internet. you can make silly analogies. but you can't censor bitcoin as we run the nodes. we are the tolerant minority. we keep bitcoin censorship resistant.

Congrats @UTXOmgmt!

There’s nothing Americans love more than mogging Europeans. Soccer about to become a national phenomenon in USA.

Congrats @elonmusk. Well deserved.

Introducing: Metaplanet Securities

We are pleased to announce that Metaplanet has entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Siiibo Securities, a licensed Type I securities firm and a pioneer of Japan's online corporate bond market. Following closing, expected in July, the company will be renamed Metaplanet Securities. This is Metaplanet's first major acquisition and the first concrete step in Project Nova, our long-term strategy to build a Bitcoin-centric financial ecosystem in Japan. The significance is hard to overstate. Japanese households hold roughly $7.4 trillion in cash, deposits and low-yield products, and as Japan shifts from deflation to inflation, that capital has begun searching for yield. By bringing Siiibo's Type I registration and online securities platform into the group, we will develop and distribute Bitcoin-related yield products directly to Japanese investors, supported by the 40,177 BTC on our balance sheet, the largest corporate Bitcoin treasury in Asia. We have great respect for Kazuki Komura and the team at Siiibo Securities and what they have built. Together, as Metaplanet Securities, we will bring new yield opportunities to Japan.

Today we strengthened Nakamoto’s balance sheet by reducing debt by $45 million, extending maturities into 2027, lowering financing costs, and maintaining a treasury of 4,468 BTC. We believe Nakamoto remains significantly undervalued. Our focus is simple: increase Bitcoin per share and prudently manage our liabilities. Today’s announcement achieves both. Onwards!

Crypto Executives Urge Congress to Keep Exception for Developers news.bgov.com/bloomberg-gove…

It’s so crazy how much of a head start SpaceX has. It’s not just they launch 90% of mass to space, it’s starship, it’s starlink, etc… they have multiple layers of intertwined monopolies. They will become the biggest company in telecom, defense, energy, transport, commodities, real estate, compute, and more. Such an incredible company and service to civilization.

I have yet to see a major bitcoin bear market where there wasn’t something deeper happening behind the scenes. Just saying.

Solid take

Five years ago today @RealRossU spoke publicly for the first time from prison as he served two life sentences plus forty years for building Silk Road. Today he is a free man, married, with a child on the way. Cheers Ross 🥂

Capital markets are funding the AI buildout at historic scale: ~$400B over 6 months. Bitcoin ETFs have seen ~$4B of outflows since May 14, pressuring $BTC. This is a capital rotation, not a Bitcoin impairment. Volatility creates opportunity.

I know I shouldn’t doxx my dogs, but here’s a little eye bleach for your timeline:

RT @Rob1Ham: @DavidFBailey buckle up & chill

I am a bitcoin forever bull, fundamentally I believe in math based money over political money… but in times of short term volatility it can always get worse before it gets better. Hodl and chill.

Just returned home from the Oslo Freedom Forum. Was my first time attending and was blown away by the emotional/intellectual impact of the content and the people I met. Reminder that I need to spend more time with freedom fighters and less with politicians and bankers. Production was on point and Oslo was amazing host city too. 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Congrats @gladstein and @ck_SNARKs

Bitcoin is like starlink for money. It transcends geography, boundaries, and local infrastructure. But unlike starlink, it requires no accounts or permission. And, with starlink, it's even more true that anyone anywhere can send value.
