$STRC is for everyone, including nonprofits.
Today, youāre sending your hard-earned capital to the government.
You donāt get a receipt. You donāt get a progress report. You donāt get a choice. Youāre just funding a system that no longer represents you and an education model that doesn't prepare the next generation for the world weāre building.
Itās time to opt out. Today we are launching the Bitcoin Scholars Fund, a new non-profit scholarship granting organization.
Our mission? To redirect $21 Million from the federal government in 2027 directly into K-12 Bitcoin education.
How it works: Starting in 2027, your first $1,700 ($3,400 per couple) donated to BSF is a 1:1 Federal Tax Credit thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Net cost to you: $0.
We aren't just building a non-profit; weāre architecting an innovative "Zero-Leakage" treasury powered by $STRC to ensure nearly 100% of your principal hits the classroom, not our overhead.
Stop funding the legacy machine. Start funding financial education for kids.
The scholarship fund goes live on January 3rd, 2027, but the "Proof of Work" starts today.
Follow along as we help fix the schools by fixing the flow of capital.

Well, that was a FUN five years.
Today Iām sharing that my time at @unchained has come to a close.
After 1,200 onboardings, 2,500 private keys generated, and helping launch the Unchained Signature program, itās time to part ways.
I still believe in the mission, remain invested in Unchainedās success, and am grateful to @josephkelly and @dhruvbansal for the opportunity.
Iām also grateful to @phil_geiger, @parkeralewis, and @mshodl for bringing me on in 2021, which led to the best five years of my career so far.
Iām proud of what we built and grateful for the incredible people I worked alongside.
Whatās next?
Iāll still be in the Bitcoin space, focused on operational security advising and Bitcoin technical support.
Stay tuned.

I am excited to announce I have left the restaurant distribution industry to join @unchainedcap
Last year I watched as fear, uncertainty, and doubt spread throughout the worldās supply chains like a virus, and decided that now was the time to act

Alright, this is really cool.
Dollar-for-dollar federal tax credit.
Using STRC to cover overhead, so nearly all of it reaches the classroom.
Goal: $21M directly into Kā12 Bitcoin education.
A rare win-win-win.

Weāre making it easier for millions of businesses to accept bitcoin.
Starting today, eligible U.S. @Square sellers will begin having Bitcoin payments automatically enabled.
Sellers who accept bitcoin will receive USD as default.
This is how bitcoin as everyday money begins.

The reason many of our leaders hate people like Nayib Bukele in El Salvador is because he has quickly proven that crime and societal decline are not inevitable or beyond controlā¦
Itās a deliberate choice allowed by weak leaders, terrible policies and suicidal empathy.

BREAKING: SQUARE TO AUTO-ENABLE BITCOIN PAYMENTS FOR MILLIONS OF SELLERS
Square will auto-enable Bitcoin payments for all eligible sellers starting March 30, 2026, according to an updated Terms of Service notice sent to users.
The change means millions of businesses using Square could soon begin accepting Bitcoin by default, rather than opting in manually.
The rollout is part of Blockās broader push to integrate Bitcoin payments across its ecosystem, leveraging the Lightning Network for fast, low-cost transactions.
Sellers will still have the option to disable the feature or automatically convert Bitcoin to USD at the point of sale.
With Square powering millions of merchants globally, this marks a major step toward making Bitcoin a standard payment method in everyday commerce.

If AI compresses terminal value and makes every moat temporary, capital will rotate to assets with no disruption risk. Bitcoin is Digital Capital - scarce, neutral, and impervious to AI disruption. $BTC should be the primary beneficiary of this shift.
