Record year for us, never shipped as many hardware wallets.

Doubled the warehouse capacity, still behind. Still made and shipped from Canada.

A fuck ton of new paranoid crypto anarchists were minted.

Mind blown.

Elon is turning X into a safe space. Pretty woke.

Great December for Mr Obnoxious.

After the initial drop, on YouTube the show is 39% ahead of the WBD average for the last 12 months. The only month which beat it in total was the Whitney Webb month, a show which is now at 1.7m downloads.

Also, average downloads per show, Audio + YouTube is ahead of the average for the last 50 shows of WBD.

It’s been a hard graft and a transition full of anxiety, so I appreciate all the sponsors and listeners who have stuck with the new show.

WBD is in good hands with Danny and he’s crushing too.

There's a perception that bitcoiners are financial doomers.

The truth is that bitcoiners see the corruption of a fiat inflationary system. It seeps into our societies, corroding our moral values and our economies.

Bitcoin is a positive way out.

In 20 years there will be 20k billionaires in the world and half of them will be bitcoiners.

Buy a lambo?

Nah

We’re buying a seat at the table.

This is the current situation.

- You buy something with Bitcoin:

In most countries you have to pay vat and in addition capital gains between the difference of buying and selling Bitcoin if you have made a profit.

This is an approximate 20% + 20% (of the profit) (It depends on each country).

- You sell Bitcoin:

You pay between 20% and 30% of the profit (Depending on country).

You have a lot of Bitcoin:

In some countries you will pay wealth tax.

You have a lot of unrealized gains:

In many countries they are trying to apply this, soon we will have the first country to do so.

If you have bought bitcoin with KYC you are screwed, the exchanges will end up passing all the data to the states and their respective tax offices.

If you have non-kyc bitcoin you can only use it to buy a soda, if you use it to buy a car or a house they will accuse you of money laundering, drug trafficking or whatever they want.

And you think bitcoiners have won? You can go to a country that has more lax tax regulations but tax havens are becoming increasingly difficult.

You have to try to make Bitcoin legal tender, and to do this you have to use your Bitcoin, and you have to accept Bitcoin as payment, only by creating a large black market where you do not have to pay taxes you can bend the state, otherwise your Bitcoin will only enrich the state.

During all these years the HODL strategy has been totally wrong, while we have carried out HODL the states have encircled us.

We came here for freedom.

Never a bad time to repost this banger.

Hearing "you were right about Bitcoin" from friends hits differently. It’s not an admission—it’s a defeatist shrug.

It means, "You were right, but it’s too late now. I missed it." That attitude is the hardest to hear because it’s not true.

A lot of people think Bitcoin is too good to be true. And when you describe it without thinking, yeah—it does sound that way. A future of sound money, fairness, and freedom? It’s hard to imagine because we’ve been trained to expect disappointment, not hope.

People have been conditioned to be nihilistic about the future. So when Bitcoin offers a way out, it’s easier to dismiss it as "too late" or "not real" than to accept it’s already here.

They think it’s over. They don’t see that it’s barely begun.

You weren’t right then. You’re right now. And you’ll keep being right. It’s not about the past—it’s about waking up to the future.
