Gm nostriches, And so it begins, my work colleague was pulled in for a disciplinary after a student complained about him saying something to the effect of “if you’re not going to engage then why the fuck do you bother to be here”, a “friend” of the student then had a “recording” but they wouldn’t share it.
Thought this was the reserve of the sensitive US students that David Collum deals with, but they are now in the UK. No action taken, no evidence presented, but that’s on his record moving into a period where everyone is potentially on the chopping block!!!
Suppose I have “performance target” for next year!!!!
In other news, #catstr caught a flippin’ magpie!!!

Gm nostriches, happy Father’s Day freaks to all those with or planning on having kids (you not got a girlfriend yet?, the internet said it would happen at 100k).
Kids off camping, so dealing with the cognitive dissonance associated with #catstr enjoying time with her cad dad. I’m not a cat dad, I like dogs. Ah well, time for a second #coffeechain

Gm nostriches, @nprofile…dq8n got the cogs turning. If you happen to have tracked bitcoin buys (really useful for taxes 🤮), time to denominate in Bitcoin, every dollar/pound/euro you put in could have just bought bitcoin (since day one). If you’ve always been #bitcoin only, you could include every other “investment” you made…….. I’m not including the house I bought in 2014…..
If unlike many, you went on that “it will appreciate faster than bitcoin” detour, maybe a tough calculation to make, but worthwhile to “run the numbers” (cheers again @nprofile…zpty). While you might not want to share the actual numbers, a useful data idea to share with no/pre-coiners who say “I’m going to buy X it’s cheaper”, reminding them that any gains need to then be sold, with the associated tax drag on your gains, if they actually outperform btc.
Bitcoin is the best “medium of exchange over time” (love this @nprofile…828y), as a result is a great as a unit of account, it is the yard stick, how can you measure something with a unit that continually changes?
As per usual, quiet moments in the morning with #catstr and #coffeechain peace out freaks.

Gm nostriches, finally got a couple of photos from my holiday, fun in the Mediterranean Sea.

Happy Saturday freaks, sun feeling like it’s going to push its way out for an afternoon out of the house 🤞 , with a group of normie no coiners. @nprofile…7a3h shirt standard.
Mempools are empty, maybe reflecting all the degen traders feeling the draw of #bitcoin treasury firms.
For me, just keeping out the mess, slight exposure to some firms, to show support (woo hoo, with have a British firm joining the party), but stacking, mining, and will submit a few 1 sat/vb transactions, for no other reason than to be able to tell the grandkids about the paradoxical pre bull run of 2025 before they moved into the realm of fiatmine freedom. 🫡🙌

Hey dug, why are you always running and biking?
Here is the answer, plus got a lovely ride in the morning sunshine, so double win.
#Bitcoin may give you financial freedom, but without your health, it ain’t worth shit. Ruining myself every month on the 10ks, in the wet, in the cold, joggers nips, through the winter we’re all worth it for being able to have this morning. Peace freaks.

Looking through some notes and a note from @nprofile…2ckt grinding like a legend, planning an order…….
I spent some Bitcoin on a @nprofile…m3k3 (😘👌), nearly 2.5 years on, maybe I would have been in a more comfortable financial position if I had stacked those sats, the value of this piece may not have kept pace, BUT THIS IS NOT THE POINT (but is absolutely has).
Unless we spend our sats, in times when prices are low particularly, artists and creators will have no income and we will lose them, meaning in the good times, we will have less things of value to spend our sats on, we won’t have peer to peer trades to make.
Sats spent are not about an investment. Sats spent are not even only about treating yourself. Sats spent also about building the community and network of people we want to be around in the future. Those who spend their sats when prices are low are the real bear market hero’s. I’m not one of them (I didn’t spend enough so also bought @nprofile…609v wine with fiat 🤮, they do have fiat bills), but I hope I played my part. The worry is those spending sats in the bull run will promote high time preference behaviours of the creators, saying that, I have faith in the guys I’ve been supporting.
Big love, peace freaks.

Gm nostriches, price is all arbitrary, however, understanding where we are could be useful and interesting. Days since all time high in January (all time and since Jan 2024), could be time to reset. And also the total number of days where we’ve been above 100k (cumulative) and the streaks of days above 100k. Feeling like being above 100k will quickly become to new normal.

Cheers Andy, but I’m not sure who will benefit from more trade with the EU, it’s an actually dumpster fire over there. The UK may be on its way to ruin, but likely better that we leave them the hell alone and try to trade elsewhere. #ukeconomy, with no uk #bitcoin strategy.

Gm nostriches, quite the week since last Friday’s house sale, again a touch nostalgic, looking back over the years I kept the house. “I don’t really need the money”, “I don’t know what I’d do with the money” and “I am at least getting some return from rent”
My indecision cost me close to 4x more bitcoin if I’d sold in 2022-2023, but my conviction probably wasn’t there, to have smash bought during a year when things were still pretty rough and uncertain, but looking back, zero bitterness, zero regrets, I got an annoying tenant who made the decision that bit easier, my conviction grew and after a week, I have “saved” most of the cash I got from the sale (a little left for family fun and maybe a new bike, although have an idea).
Never going to say anyone should do anything, but now, I can tell people what I did, how it has made me feel, and in the course of 6 days, I’ve already recouped both my estate agent fees AND lawyer fees due to the loss of purchasing power of the British pound when compared to my unit of account. 🫡🙌
Peace freaks, have a legendary Friday.
Now to draw from the example of @nprofile…00vy and @nprofile…e76w, and just stop involvement in the fiatmine games, even if I’m not moving straight into a new job.
#coffeechain and charts to start my Friday.

#coffeechain #2 of the day, joined by #catstr (she believes she needs more lap than the computer). Closing up some loses ends from last week’s house sale, and the “savings” I put the proceeds into has kindly kept sufficient value to already cover lawyer and estate agents fees. FYI, that investment property is not actually storing any value.

If @nprofile…0f8l ‘s book doesn’t win him over, @nprofile…zc29 has to be enough, but the 5% allocation (acceptable downside for David), combined with pointing out he’s mid curving it too much was a lovely moment.

Gm nostriches, no one would have known if I had just poured myself a coffee this morning, but went out for the run. To the top of the hill in the background, 4.5 miles there, upwards of a 1000ft climb. Didn’t manage it within 90 minutes, but considering it was 19 years since the last time I did this route, I’m not going to get hung up on it. Not only getting older, but also getting better.
View wasn’t as good as yesterday!!!!
Now #coffeechain!!!

Today, I’ve complete on the sale of the first house I bought, in August of 2006, near peak housing market, 18 months/2 years before the GFC. At the time I was doing the “graduate job” with a “good pension”, barely able to make mortgage payments, single, just about making ends meet, living the treadmill life.
“Better get on the housing ladder”, “better than paying rent to someone else”, “good to have a home of your own”, is what everyone said. But what have i learnt? That mortgage put me in chains that could have locked me into a careers that wasn’t interesting or went anywhere, but I needed to stay there to pay the mortgage.
Looking back, I moved on and ended up having someone else paying the mortgage since, but with expenses this wasn’t some sort of golden ticket as every rent payment was taxed, every annoying tenant requested little job to be fixed cost money, property maintenance costs are real!!! The compound annual increase of the house over the years, without accounting for mortgage interest or expenses, has been something like 1.7%, nowhere near keeping up with official ( fake)inflation figures.
Real estate is a consumable, it is not a store of value, if you can, buy where you want to live or rent where you want to live, spending as little as possible and choose a better store of value.
Be safe out there freaks, educate the ones you love, don’t let them believe what may have worked in the past. People may not want to listen and say “you can’t live in your Bitcoin”, but it is likely a much better store of value, won’t lock you into a specific location and won’t need a new boiler (or some to help a tenant test the smoke alarm). It might also free you and your family from the chains and stress of a 25 (or 40 in my case) year mortgage, and the impact that could have on you and them.
It was not all negative, living by myself (well, me and my dog), having the responsibility to make it through, the kick up the ass that something had to change, and having “my own place” were definitely positive but also critical to getting where I am today. My advice, don’t be distracted by those who “made money” from changes in monetary policy. It is your house, your life, not part of your investment portfolio.
Saving in #bitcoin not bricks. Love you guys. Enjoying my final moments in the house, although now officially trespassing!!!!
This is house my creature comforts were like when I moved in. Was already prepping for lift as a bitcoiner, I had a chair, but it was a very very cheap on.
