A reminder to invest in memories too.

I wrote an essay last summer modeling what would happen if lenders counted Bitcoin in mortgage underwriting. My simulation: 15% of denied applicants flipped to approved when BTC was counted. Approval rate went from 2% to 17%. This week the first Fannie Mae-backed Bitcoin mortgage just closed. The buyer said: "We closed and my Bitcoin stayed intact." Called it. 🟠🏠 docs.google.com/document/d/1…

5 years ago, at 16 years old, I made my first Bitcoin sale through my first business, The Divine Tea Company. By that point, I’d already spent years learning about Bitcoin, studying it, and trying to understand why it mattered. Since then, I’ve watched Bitcoin crash, recover, get declared dead hundreds of times, and continue proving people wrong. Today, as everyone panics over another drop, I’m reminded that conviction isn’t built during bull markets. It’s built during moments like these. The price changes. The thesis doesn’t. Bitcoin is a marathon, not a race. Keep your time horizon longer than your emotions.

This genuinely scared me. One of my followers sent me screenshots of a fake account pretending to be me using realistic edited/AI photos. I already got five accounts taken down last week… now there are more. Please double check accounts before trusting anyone online. The internet is getting really weird.

Favorite pizzas 🤝 Bitcoin history 🍕₿ Happy 16th Bitcoin Pizza Day. Never forget the 10,000 BTC pies.

The more I travel, the more Bitcoin makes sense.

Rome wasn’t built in a day. Neither is Bitcoin.

Gen Z for bitcoin.

Studied finance, majored in Bitcoin

Thanks for having me @GCNNow!

Graduation tomorrow. If this isn’t the ultimate proof of work… I don’t know what is.

From the stage at an Honors College graduation to planes, panels, and a minivan at midnight — this weekend was everything. Saturday I spoke at the Honors College commencement. Walked off that stage and got on two flights to Las Vegas. Sunday — networking at @SoraVentures East Meets West and the Women in Bitcoin Bash. Monday — speaker reception, meeting some of the most incredible minds in the space. Tuesday 10AM — I moderated my panel, Orange Pill U: Hazing Your Classmates with Bitcoin, alongside my Gen Z bitcoin crew @halstonvalencia, @orangepeelpod, and Braeden. One of the best moments ever. Then @Delta happened. A tarmac in St. Louis for 3 hours. No food. No real answers. One tiny bag of SunChips. Customer service hanging up on me. A glitching app. Hours no sleep, no real meal, and a Hall of Fame induction ceremony starting at 10:30 AM the next morning in Fort Myers. We finally get to ATL, hours later than expected. Every flight had already gone out for the night. So I did what I had to do. Rented the last vehicle available — a minivan — and drove 9 hours from Atlanta to Fort Myers. Got home at 9:30 AM. Curled my hair. Did my makeup. Put on my suit. Walked in with minutes to spare and accepted my Hall of Fame induction. Then drove to the airport. Returned the van. Ubered back. Filmed an hour interview with Gulf Coast News (airs Friday at 6:20 PM ET). No excuses. No shortcuts. You show up — no matter what. That is who I am. That will always be who I am.
