In this episode, Ben and Bergs break down their biggest Bitcoin move yet. Ben explains why he bought $100,000 of BTC while on holiday, how he thinks about long-term allocation, and why price noise does not matter if your time horizon is 5 to 10 years. They also unpack the private jet story, not as a flex, but as a lesson in buying back time to execute when it counts.

You will learn how to avoid emotional decisions, why Bitcoin is the foundation and altcoins are a cycle play, and how macro liquidity, rate cuts, and market structure shape the next 6 to 12 months.

Key Takeaways

◻️ Bitcoin is the forever asset. Altcoins are a cycle trade with clear exits.

◻️ Have a plan for entries, cash reserves, and profit taking before the volatility hits.

◻️ Time beats tinkering. Reduce decisions. Focus on conviction and horizon.

◻️ Money buys back time. Use it to make better decisions and compound faster.

In this episode Ben and Bergs break down their biggest Bitcoin move yet, including why Ben just bought $100,000 of BTC while on holiday and how they think about long-term portfolio strategy.

They dive into why short-term price moves don’t matter, how to avoid emotional investing, and why Bitcoin is the foundation while altcoins are a cycle play.

Whether you are new to crypto or managing a seven-figure portfolio, this is the mindset shift that separates strong investors from weak hands.

Key Takeaways

◻️ Bitcoin is a forever asset while altcoins are a cycle play

◻️ Short-term corrections are not threats, they are opportunities

◻️ Time in the market does not equal better returns, structure does

◻️ Investing without clear goals is like sailing without a map

In this candid episode, Ben and Bergs reflect on the rollercoaster of building Collective Shift from the near-bankruptcy days and selling crypto to keep the lights on, to scaling internationally with an 18-person team.

Whether you’re building a business, investing in crypto, or chasing financial freedom, this is the behind-the-scenes reality check you won’t get from the highlight reels.

Key Take aways:

- Wealth gives you choices, not a magic life upgrade

- The people you surround yourself with will shape your ceiling

- The journey and daily game matter more than the number in the bank

- Money solves money problems but creates its own set of challenges

This week, Ben and Bergs dive into one of the biggest catalysts for Bitcoin’s long-term growth: institutional and retirement fund adoption.

Trump’s new executive order opens the door for US 401k plans—worth over $12 trillion—to invest directly in crypto. Pension funds, company treasuries, ETFs, and soon superannuation funds are all joining the buying side, creating unprecedented demand for Bitcoin.

Key Takeaways:

- Retirement fund access to Bitcoin could unleash trillions in buying power

- The real adoption wave is coming from everyday investors and institutions

- Treat Bitcoin as a long-term asset, not a short-term trade

Key Takeaways:

- You need a sell strategy before the hype kicks in

- Don’t FOMO into pumps—celebrate others and stay your course

- Bitcoin isn’t “just another altcoin” it’s the core of your strategy

Bitcoin hit another all-time high this week and we’re not done yet. In this episode, we break down why Ben raised his price prediction from $150K to $180K, how we’re thinking about altcoins, and why now is the time to get your portfolio sorted before it’s too late.

Key Takeaways:

- Altcoins are starting to move but don’t forget your exit plan

- Don’t try to time the top, the risk isn’t worth the reward

- Crypto is a capital growth tool, not an income engine

This week, Ben and Bergs dive into one of the most important (and least understood) topics: how the financial system really works and why most people get left behind.

From Ben’s banking frustrations to why holding cash is a slow bleed, they unpack how the system is built to benefit institutions, not individuals. They explain the mechanics of inflation, compound wealth erosion, and why putting money in the bank isn't just unproductive — it's dangerous long-term.

You’ll also learn how top investors and business owners structure their wealth to outpace inflation, reduce tax, and build real wealth.

Key Takeaways:

- How tax-efficient structures can double your investing power

- Why understanding money is more important than working for it

- The system is rigged, learn how to play the game, or lose by default

Most people try to figure everything out alone. We think that's the slowest (and hardest) way to grow.

In this episode, we talk about the single decision that’s accelerated our careers more than anything else: hiring coaches. From running marathons to raising millions—coaches have been our cheat code.

We break down why the best performers in every field have mentors, the blind spots you're probably missing, and how to fast-track your progress—whether in business, life, or crypto.

Key Takeaways

☉ Why hiring coaches is the ultimate cheat code for growth

☉ How to identify your blind spots and fix them fast

☉ The difference between real experience and empty advice
