Students in El Salvador are now learning about Bitcoin miners in the classroom 🇸🇻
The future is bright! 🙌

🇺🇲 "I will ensure that the future of cryptos and Bitcoin is made in the United States. I will support the right to self-custody for the country's 50 million crypto owners. I will keep Elizabeth Warren away from your Bitcoins."
Donald Trump, at a presidential campaign rally.
Sudden realization or pure demagoguery in the run-up to the US presidential election?

As a narrative around an Ethereum Spot ETF comes together, you should remember the fundamental difference between Bitcoin and fiat currencies like USD.
The difference can be summed up as follows:
21M Vs. ♾️
Or still:
Decentralized Vs. Centralized
Imagine that infinity is also what the total supply of Ethereum can aim for. Imagine also that Ethereum is centralized.
No difference therefore between Ethereum and the fiat currencies from which Bitcoin aims to protect you.
Don't let yourself be trapped by the euphoria that is sure to sweep the market in the weeks and months to come!
Bitcoin is the way to opt out of the debt-based system that enslaves us.

Jim Cramer Is Wrong Once Again. Bitcoin Is Essential for the Future of Humanity.
Don't Trust Jim Cramer, Verify.
Some people still wonder why Bitcoin is essential to the future of humanity.
Just a few days ago, Jim Cramer made a fool of himself by declaring that “Bitcoin has done nothing for mankind”.
For Jim, but also for all those who still refuse to study the why of Bitcoin, I'm going to try to open their eyes so that they understand why Bitcoin is essential for the preservation of human rights.
All in the hope that these few lines will inspire them to study Bitcoin further, because that's the key!
It's clear that governments the world over want to do away with cash. Some countries are more advanced than others in this strong trend, but they all want the same thing for the future: the disappearance of cash.
Cash payments are becoming increasingly rare, and everything is being done to favor credit card payments, whether online or in the physical world. This should make you wonder about the implications of a cashless society in the future.
A cashless society where money is controlled by governments, and therefore totally centralized.
As a citizen, what would this mean for you? You would immediately lose your right to financial privacy.
Some people will make the mistake of thinking that this is no big deal because they have nothing to hide since they're not doing anything illegal with their money. This is the reaction of the majority of the general public. Unfortunately, this is a very serious mistake.
The moment you lose your financial privacy, you give even more power to governments and corporations. For these entities, what you buy and sell with your money says more about you than your own words.
When you purchase with cash, the merchant has no information about your identity. Conversely, when you purchase with your bank card, it's a disaster for your privacy, as the merchant can accumulate a whole heap of data about you. Worse still, this data is cross-referenced with other data about you obtained through other purchases or on other Internet platforms, giving a slightly more complete profile of you each time.
Eventually, without you even realizing it, governments and corporations will have succeeded in creating a complete profile of you and your habits.
On the other hand, there's Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System invented by Satoshi Nakamoto and which has been operating virtually non-stop since January 3, 2009.
Bitcoin frees you from unnecessary intermediaries when making a payment. No more intermediary banks collecting data. No more banks charging you exorbitant fees to make payments. No more intermediaries like PayPal or Visa who also take their share of fees.
With Bitcoin, you're in control. There's no need to trust a third party - everything happens directly between two people. This means that by using Bitcoin for your payments, governments and corporations can't accumulate all that data about you. Of course, this requires you to take certain precautions in your use of Bitcoin, but Bitcoin makes it all possible.
In the future, it seems clear that the general public will be faced with 3 options:
- State Money
- Corporate Money
- People's Money
We've seen that Facebook (now Meta) tried to move in this direction in the past with its Libra digital currency project, which was quickly killed off by the American authorities, well aware of the danger to their power, which is intimately linked to the US dollar.
You've understood that Bitcoin is People's Money. It's your way out of the current system, which is flawed and not fixable.
Despite the incredible success of the Bitcoin revolution so far, Bitcoin is still in its infancy, as very few people on earth have understood the why of Bitcoin and are using Bitcoin.
Yet the Bitcoin revolution must survive and thrive for the good of all humans. If the Bitcoin revolution reaches its full potential, all humans will have access to money with the following characteristics:
- Bitcoin cannot be censored by the authorities.
- Bitcoin cannot be devalued by governments. Bitcoin supply is hard-capped at 21 million units no matter what.
- Bitcoin cannot be manipulated by corporations. All Bitcoin users are equal.
- Bitcoin cannot be easily monitored.
- Bitcoin is global. Bitcoin transcends borders.
- Bitcoin is accessible to everyone, with no strings attached. Anyone can use Bitcoin, but what's even better is that anyone can (and should) participate in the network by becoming a node of the network to verify everything for themselves. Don't Trust, Verify.
With its unique characteristics, Bitcoin helps every human being preserve their fundamental rights: privacy, banking, freedom of speech, and savings.
With Bitcoin, everyone can express themselves freely without fear of having their money seized. Everyone can have access to basic banking services, which is essential in Africa, for example. You can save again without fear of inflation destroying the fruits of your labor through an infinite fall in purchasing power over time. You can transact with anyone, anywhere in the world, for any amount, without asking anyone's permission. In the Bitcoin network, your money is really yours. The decentralized Bitcoin network makes it all possible.
The next time someone tells you that Bitcoin has done nothing for humanity, you'll know what to say.
Bitcoin is an opportunity for humanity, and it's up to us to seize it.

What innovations around the Bitcoin system are you most excited about?
Since the beginning of 2024, there's only one word on everyone's lips when it comes to Bitcoin: its price!
The entry of the financial giants into the world of Bitcoin has changed the game in terms of demand, with an ever-increasing demand for BTC that nothing can satisfy.
BlackRock, Fidelity, and the other Wall Street giants are now approaching 4% ownership of Bitcoin's circulating supply.
In the face of all this excitement, some would almost forget that the price of Bitcoin isn't the most interesting thing in the Bitcoin world. The price of Bitcoin in weak money remains important to play an essential marketing role and help more people get interested in Bitcoin, but in the end, there's much more interesting when you've understood the why of Bitcoin.
That's why I'd like to talk here about upcoming innovations in Bitcoin Mainnet or the Bitcoin ecosystem. The following come to mind:
- BitVM, with the potential arrival of smart contracts in the Bitcoin world.
- Stratum V2
- Machankura
- Miniscript and all the innovations that will build on it.
- Future developments around the Lightning Network.
- Enhanced confidentiality with BIP 47 and BIP 324
- BIP 119
- Fedimint and Cashu
- Nostr
- ...
I'll stop here, as the list is far from exhaustive.
So my question is simple: which Bitcoin innovations are you most excited about?

It's in France in 2024.
If you want to access your money, you have to provide a whole bunch of supporting documents.
Why do you have to provide these supporting documents when it is your money that is in the bank?
Or it might be time to remind yourself that your money in the bank:
❌ is not your money.
❌ is not actually in the bank.
❌ is not actually money.
❌ doesn't really exist.
Bitcoin is your way out of this debt-based system.

In just a few years, Marathon Digital has become one of the heavyweights of Bitcoin mining. The company headed by Fred Thiel has been communicating a great deal about this for some time, and it's easy to see why Marathon Digital's success on paper is so impressive.
In December 2023, Marathon Digital successfully mined 1,853 BTC! In January 2024, Marathon Digital had to adapt its operational production capacities due to certain constraints on its production sites. This brought its total down to 1,084 BTC mined. However, this is still 58% higher than what Marathon Digital achieved in January 2023.
At the heart of Marathon Digital's success is, of course, its mining pool, Mara Pool. Marathon Digital is the only publicly listed Bitcoin mining company in America to own its mining pool. This gives Marathon Digital flexibility that other Bitcoin Mining companies don't have.
Among the possibilities offered by owning its mining pool is the ability to offer a service like Slipstream, which Marathon Digital announced on February 22, 2024.
Slipstream aims to simplify the validation of so-called “non-standard” Bitcoin transactions.
In what follows, I'll explain in detail what these “non-standard” transactions are, what Slipstream is all about, and finally, why Slipstream is causing so much controversy in the Bitcoin world.

The first step is to understand that the current monetary and financial system is flawed.
Not easy when the educational system has done everything to leave you in blissful ignorance since ever.
Then, you will have to understand that since the injustice of the current system benefits those who run it, it is not fixable.
Once you understand the problem, you can really appreciate the solution represented by Bitcoin.
By studying Bitcoin seriously, you will come to understand that Bitcoin is an incredible monetary revolution that will change the world of the future for the better.
Obviously, with such a monetary revolution, patience is key.
The best strategy with Bitcoin is to take a long-term view. This means acting in days while thinking in decades.
You must learn to step back and see the bigger picture. Rather than letting the volatility of the Bitcoin price play tricks on you, you need to make it your greatest ally.
This is not easy at first, because Bitcoin is totally different from anything you've ever experienced before. But you'll get there eventually if you understand the why of Bitcoin and what Bitcoin can do for you in the future.

Are you still wondering about the Fed and Jerome Powell's money-printing philosophy?
It's actually quite simple: Jerome Powell is the Buzz Lightyear of money creation.
His motto: To Infinity and Beyond!
Your only option is to change the playing field and stop depending on the Fed's decisions.
Bitcoin is the new playing field where you know the rules in advance. These rules are in your favor, not in favor of a minority of the super-rich.

Reigning champions, the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl again on Sunday in Las Vegas. They needed overtime to beat the San Francisco 49ers (25-22). This is their third crown in five years.
Patrick Mahomes has been criticized for a lot of things this season.
For having been less efficient, for not having allowed the Kansas City Chiefs, reigning champions, to be a great team, for not having been magical at the end of the match, of which he nevertheless had the secret.
But, Sunday in Las Vegas, during the Super Bowl, the 58th in history, the fabulous quarterback made everyone agree.
By distilling a great comeback, in overtime moreover, he finally allowed the Chiefs to beat the San Francisco 49ers (25-22) and to be crowned again.
At 28, he won the super final for the third time in his career (started in 2017) and in just five years (plus a defeat in 2021). With three titles, Patrick Mahomes has equaled Troy Aikman, of the Dallas Cowboys (winner in the 1990s), and continues to chase Terry Bradshaw and Joe Montana, the legends of Pittsburgh and San Francisco, four times champions.
Seven-time Super Bowl winner Tom Brady is still out of reach.
Sunday, in addition to helping Kansas City win, Mahomes also found the solutions to get his team out of a delicate situation.
What a legend!

One can blindly trust one's politicians for only one thing: to always make decisions that go against the interests of the people.
Everything is being put in place for the arrival of the digital euro in the future.
This digital euro will be a catastrophe for the private lives of European citizens since it will also be accompanied by a gradual withdrawal of cash almost everywhere in Europe.
All pretexts will be used to justify this withdrawal of cash.

Bitcoin Vs. Bitcoin Spot ETFs: the great illusion has started. Beware.
It is quite shocking to see that so many people have completely misunderstood Bitcoin in recent days and hours.
Or maybe these so-called Bitcoiners are finally revealing their true colors by showing that only greed has always guided them...
With the approval of Bitcoin Spot ETFs, some even believe that the mass adoption of Bitcoin by the general public has started...
Unfortunately, this is not the case.
Even if these financial products are phenomenally successful, this will in no way mean that mass adoption has started for Bitcoin.
Bitcoin aims to free us from these intermediaries who abuse people's trust and make people pay fees that have no reason to be paid.
The mass adoption of these Bitcoin-based financial products will only be one more obstacle to the separation of Money and State.
Bitcoin aims to separate Money and the State.
Do not forget it.
Mass adoption will really start when the general public understands that these financial products are just a lure used by the powerful at the head of the current system to try to distract them from the real purpose of the Bitcoin revolution.
Your interest in Bitcoin lies in taking power over the fruit of your labor and your life.
This therefore involves understanding the why of Bitcoin, understanding why you need self-custody, understanding why you need to run a node on the Bitcoin network, ...
In short, this means you need to understand that Bitcoin is much more than just another financial investment!
All of this is much more interesting than spending your day raving about the trading volumes of financial products within a flawed and unfixable system.
A debt-based system which is at the root of the majority of the ills of our society. A system that imposes constant censorship on you and which has impoverished you a little more every day for decades.
Bitcoin Spot ETFs are not a solution to any problem. Bitcoin is the solution. Bitcoin is your way out!

Bitcoin Doesn’t Change, Bitcoin Changes You! (For the Better)
The narrative has completely changed regarding Bitcoin since BlackRock, Fidelity and the other financial giants on Wall Street decided that they wanted to take their place in this alternative system which promises to disrupt the current system which is flawed and not fixable.
I am well aware that this also represents a major risk for the deeper meaning of the Bitcoin revolution as I told you elsewhere, but who says major risk also says major opportunity to accelerate the mass adoption of Bitcoin by the General public. I'll come back to that later.
If you haven't taken a closer look at Bitcoin in the past, you might believe that Bitcoin has changed. You might think Bitcoin got better all of a sudden.
The reality is that Bitcoin has not changed. It is the behavior of others regarding Bitcoin that changes.
Bitcoin doesn't change, Bitcoin changes you!
This is obvious to anyone who has studied the Bitcoin system and its impacts on our current and future lives.
The Bitcoin protocol gives you essential guarantees in a world more uncertain than ever. This is the reason why people always end up changing when they come into contact with Bitcoin.
Even the biggest opponents of Bitcoin sooner or later open their eyes and stop fighting pointlessly against a unique monetary revolution that promises to change the world of the future for the better.
Rather than fighting, your interest is to do everything to make the most of the liberating power of the Bitcoin revolution.
The shift in media narrative since these Wall Street giants decided that Bitcoin was a good thing should alert you to the absolute necessity of thinking for yourself.
This is another aspect of the Bitcoin revolution that is not highlighted often enough.
Don't Trust, Verify.
Bitcoin pushes you to decide for yourself.
Bitcoin pushes you to make your own decisions rather than blindly following what the powerful at the head of the current system want to impose on you.
The sooner you understand the absolute necessity of thinking for yourself, the sooner you will be able to take power over your life.
The Bitcoin revolution teaches you this too.

With Bitcoin, the Key Is to Focus on the Real Signal, Leaving Aside the Ambient Noise Propagated by Those Who Want to Keep You Away From the Bitcoin Revolution.
The powerful people at the head of the current system have a vested interest in keeping you away from Bitcoin.
Why? Because Bitcoin gives power back to the people.
Bitcoin takes power out of the hands of governments and bankers and puts it back in the hands of the people.
Governments and bankers don't want to lose their power, which they use arbitrarily and unfairly. So everything is done to discourage the general public from buying Bitcoin.
You've heard the same false clichés over and over again:
"Bitcoin is dangerous"
"Bitcoin is used for illegal activities"
"Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme"
"Bitcoin is an ecological disaster"
"Bitcoin is too volatile"
...
I'll stop here, but this list of lies is very long.
Here I'll just dwell on the cliché "Bitcoin is too volatile".
Volatile with what? With the price of Bitcoin expressed in fiat currency!
But when it comes down to it, the ultimate goal of the Bitcoin revolution is not to measure your Bitcoin in fiat currency. The goal of Bitcoin is to enable you to do without fiat currencies.
We're still a long way from that, but it's the goal.
Bitcoiners want to foster the creation of a circular economy based on the Bitcoin system. As such, the Buy And HODL Bitcoin pattern must be gradually replaced by the Spend and Replace Bitcoin pattern.
This is the key to the future success of the Bitcoin revolution.
If we fail to do this, Bitcoin will remain a formidable store of value, but we will have missed something.
If you continue to focus on these clichés propagated by those who have a vested interest in seeing the Bitcoin revolution fail, you are wrongly focusing on the ambient noise rather than the real signal: the Bitcoin revolution.
The choice is yours.

BREAKING: Joe Biden just declared Bitcoin a legal tender in America
After a long and hesitant anti-Bitcoin and anti-cryptocurrency operation for several months, Joe Biden was not convinced by Elizabeth Warren's latest speech to create an anti-cryptocurrency army.
Joe Biden said that America already has an army and that it is time to strengthen the American position as a world leader in terms of innovation.
Joe Biden himself has lost faith in the American dollar and believes that Bitcoin is the future.
A real game-changer for America. A small step for Bitcoin, a big step for America.

On May 24, 2022, in the midst of the Terra LUNA fiasco and the fiasco of its "Stablecoin" UST, I wrote an article explaining in detail why Bitcoin is the best Stablecoin.
This article is more relevant than ever as the USDC depegged from the US dollar since SVB collapsed.
Stablecoins like the USDC will always be problematic because they are still tied to the current system and fiat currencies.
Bitcoin is the solution because it is independent of governments and central banks.
Of course, to understand this, you need to understand the why of Bitcoin. If not, you know what you have to do...

Bitcoin != Crypto.
For those who are not familiar with logical comparison operators, this means that Bitcoin is different from cryptocurrencies.
Like all Bitcoiners, I have been telling you this for years. Recently, even Gary Gensler, the chairman of the SEC, could not deny this fact.
Once you understand the why of Bitcoin, you'll understand that you need to focus on Bitcoin which is the real revolution.
Everything else is just noise.
Unfortunately, many get lost in the noise. This means that they will lose energy, time, and money. It is a shame to jeopardize the fruits of one's labor in this way.
Sooner or later, these people will always realize that Bitcoin is the real revolution to focus on for the future.
One of the reasons why so many people get lost in their Bitcoin journey is that the cryptocurrency exchanges do everything they can to get you to sell your Bitcoin to buy Sh*tcoins.
To fix this problem, I think it is essential to leave these cryptocurrency exchange platforms behind and switch to a more relevant alternative: a Bitcoin buying platform.
You've probably never heard of the term before, but that's how I describe a platform like Swan Bitcoin.
Why? Because Swan Bitcoin focuses on selling BTC to its customers. You won't find a feature to sell Bitcoin on Swan Bitcoin.
Surprising? No, because Swan Bitcoin seeks to make you Bitcoin HODLers rather than Bitcoin Traders who will waste energy, time, and money.
Swan Bitcoin seeks to educate you to take full advantage of the Bitcoin revolution.
At Swan Bitcoin, you won't find any Sh*tcoin. Nothing that would distract you from the real revolution. No noise, just the real signal: the Bitcoin revolution.
In the latest issue of the In Bitcoin We Trust Newsletter, I explore this idea of a Bitcoin buying platform while giving you 6 reasons to adopt the Swan Bitcoin platform for your Bitcoin purchases.

What is happening in Nigeria at the moment seems far away to all Westerners who live in their daily comfort.
Many think that their governments will not put them in the same situation in the future.
It is a mistake in my opinion to think that because you live in the West, you will not be confronted with the same issues that currently affect Nigerians or Lebanese.
In Nigeria, the government is trying, by all means, to ban Bitcoin to impose its CBDC, the eNaira. The people don't want the eNaira, so the government is slowly but surely moving towards a ban on cash.
Cash withdrawals are limited for the people which is outright theft of the fruits of their labor.
Once a government puts you in this situation, it becomes more difficult to switch to the Bitcoin plan. Why? Because the fruits of your labor saved in the bank are locked up and you have to practically start from scratch.
That's why it's becoming increasingly clear that time is running out to accumulate Bitcoin as the Western governments' offensive to impose a mass surveillance society with their CBDCs is only just beginning.
You can't say in the future that you didn't know. You know what will happen to us in the West. All you have to do is look at emerging countries like Nigeria.
From there, it is up to you to opt for Bitcoin as soon as possible to secure the fruits of your labor within the most secure decentralized network in the world. The goal is clearly to place the fruits of your labor beyond the reach of governments and central bankers.
I explore this idea in more detail in the latest issue of the In Bitcoin We Trust Newsletter.

Bitcoin was created in 2008 by Satoshi Nakamoto with a specific goal in mind: to take the control of money out of the hands of the state.
Bitcoin aims to give you back the power over money.
In fact, Bitcoin is not just another investment as some people still believe. Bitcoin is a monetary revolution that you must fully embrace to change your life for the better.
This means you need to stop investing in Bitcoin, and instead, see Bitcoin as the best savings technology available to you. Save the fruits of your labor in Bitcoin and live within the Bitcoin standard.
This means looking for a way to get paid in Bitcoin if possible.
This may seem excessive to some living in the Western world, but what is happening today in emerging countries like Lebanon (look at protesters furious having not access to their own savings. The value of the Lebanese pound has dropped by more than 98% since 2019), Nigeria (the government tries to impose its eNaira), and Argentina (hyperinflation is the norm for decades) shows you what is in store if you don't embrace the Bitcoin revolution before it's too late.
Too late? Unfortunately yes, because today in Nigeria we can see the difference between those who had anticipated the collapse of the current system and those who now see their governments and banks doing everything to censor them from switching to Bitcoin.
Of course, it's never too late to do the right thing and you don't need the banks' permission to switch to Bitcoin. However, once governments impose their CBDCs via their central banks and cash is practically history, your options for converting the fruits of your labor into Bitcoin will be much more limited.
You will be stuck in the debt-based fiat system.
For these reasons, I think it is essential to protect the fruits of your labor while it is still possible. To do this, there is only one thing to do: stop investing in Bitcoin, and start saving and living in Bitcoin.
It will make a big difference in your future life because it will totally change your current expectations about Bitcoin's price and your time horizon. You will understand that there is no need to wait for dips to buy Bitcoin, and there is no need to be stressed about the price of Bitcoin in the short term.
Bitcoin is your peaceful weapon to exit the debt-based fiat system that is flawed and not fixable. It's up to you to use this weapon fully to protect your future.
