🚨The Progressive Bitcoiner, Inc welcomes Jason Maier @npub1dc8…jwqd as our Director of Education 📚
Many of you will know Jason as a teacher, speaker and author of “A Progressive’s Case for Bitcoin.”
Serving on the TPB board, Jason is increasing his involvement with TPB, Inc to lead our education efforts across the organization, including written and media materials, workshops and in person education, and beyond. Given Jason’s track record and expertise teaching and breaking down complex ideas, like Bitcoin, for everyday people, we can think of no one better to lead these efforts! 👏
https://blossom.primal.net/9e7a473e86744f54f4cf5160c5b9605bc7c177516260eaa1fba58103e3917bbb.jpg

Let’s break down Governor Hobbs veto decision on 1025 further. This decision, it turns out, is quite detrimental to Arizonans looking for greater returns on their retirement investments.
Arizonas retirement fund (annualized):
1-Year Return: +9.0%
3-Year Return: +6.1%
5-Year Return: +8.5%
10-Year Return: +7.6%
Bitcoin returns (annualized):
1-Year Return: +153.1%
3-Year Return: +21.93%
5-Year Return: +66.56%
10-Year Return: +79.02%
What is untested about Bitcoin in its 16 year history to $2 trillion market cap and global adoption? What “tests” would Bitcoin need to pass to satisfy the governor? As Bitcoin grows in value, its volatility also decreases (as we’ve seen recently being even less volatile than major stock indexes).
Not to mention, investing in Bitcoin doesn’t carry the same risks as investing in volatile companies dealing with global and political affairs. Bitcoin is an appropriate and responsible savings vehicle for retirement funds and for citizens looking to preserve and protect their wealth.
We hope the governor, and leaders across the United States, see the benefits of Bitcoin, including its particular ability to be a great savings vehicle with its global, hard cap, and secure properties. Too many Democrats are against or on the sidelines still against this asset.

What if a Bitcoin-backed bond could save Social Security? 🤔
BitBonds, (s/o Matthew Pines and Andrew Hohns from the Bitcoin Policy Institute) might be the most progressive fiscal tool yet — and they could reshape how we fund the future.

🚨A statement from Executive Director @nprofile…a3nl here at The Progressive Bitcoiner about our use of the word progressive and our status as a nonpartisan 501c3 nonprofit 🗣️
Progressive values over partisan politics
The Progressive Bitcoiner, Inc is a nonprofit organization that explores Bitcoin through the lens of progressive values—focusing on social good, environmental sustainability, and economic inclusion. While we engage with issues that matter to progressives, we are not a partisan organization and do not align with any political party. Our mission is to educate, inform, and foster discussion for those who resonate with these values, regardless of political affiliation. Bitcoin is for everyone, and we believe in examining its potential through a perspective that prioritizes fairness, sustainability, and community well-being.
We hope you’ll join us on this mission, and see it as a wide tent toward broadening adoption of Bitcoin, not furthering partisan divides or discussions.

Remember Senator Warren’s Anti-Crypto Army?” Wondering how someone can claim to be a fierce fighter for women, marginalized communities, working class people and not be a fierce advocate for financial freedom, privacy, and resistance money that is Bitcoin?
Yeah, us too.
Senator Warren is up for reelection this year, seeking her third term. Contact her today to express your concern over her stances on Bitcoin, civil liberties, privacy and financial freedom warren.senate.gov/contact
Massachusetts progressives and Democratic voters in huge support of Bitcoin would like to know, Senator, if you care to reconsider your stance while John Deaton is in full support of Bitcoin and moving forward with technology and financial freedom in 2024 and beyond.

In 2021, we saw the rise of progressives for Bitcoin speaking out. Nicole Dobrow was one such voice, and this message still rings true to this day:
“What was hopefully made clear is that Bitcoin is not a niche “shadowy super coder” cyber world, as Senator Elizabeth Warren hopefully no longer believes. Nor is it a prominent threat to our planet. Bitcoin is humanity’s first opportunity to unify under a singular, global, peer-to-peer form of money. It cannot be debased. It is never closed for holidays. And it’s going to change the world.”

Why are we Bitcoin only in our focus? 🤔
Well, when it comes to cryptocurrency, there’s Bitcoin, and then there’s everything else. Amongst a backdrop of scams, lawsuits, and vc blockchain projects with questionable use-cases, it’s important to discuss the differences. The SEC in 2023 and beyond has continued to question many such crypto projects, but never the status and role of Bitcoin as not a security, but something quite unique.
“And, for now at least, they seem to be arguing that bitcoin – and bitcoin alone – has attained the status of decentralized digital cash; an autonomous currency beyond the control of vested interests. Well done Satoshi.”
