  • We Can't Trust the FED, We Need to Opt Out With Bitcoin!

    What's up Sats Crew! 

    Words can't express how crazy things are getting now. We are starting to see the FED get caught between two bad places, and meanwhile the everyday working man is feeling the pain. 

    I think it is important that individuals protect themselves now more than ever, and this video is a call to action to study Bitcoin. The FED has proven time and time again that decisions they make end up negatively impacting many of us. In this video, I discuss the following important topics: 

    -FED is between a rock and a hard place right now 
    -Cutting interest rates with inflation already surging will cause even more inflation
    -Holding/Increasing will cause massive pain amongst the population and will be difficult -to pay interest on our debt
    -Look at Gold, Bitcoin, Silver - They are pumping
    -Look at risk on - They are seeing pullbacks
    -Kashkari brought up the possibility of no rate cuts this year
    -A change in tone, on our “data dependent” FED


    I think inflation is hurting people, homes and oil are up… Everything that matters is up and we need to see a correction soon
    Overall I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on the FED, the new sentiment they have, and how you are positioning in these turbulent times. 

    Best Regards,

  • What Made Me Finally Understand Bitcoin!

    Hello SatsMate Crew! 

    Like many of you, I've had a Bitcoin story over the past decade where I heard about it, moved on, heard about it, and bought a tiny amount, and moved on. It never really stuck with me until around 2020 and I went down the rabbit hole. In today's podcast, I go over my story with Bitcoin, and the things that finally got me to understand it on a deeper level. Specifically, I go over: 

    - It became legal tender in El Salvador Around 2021
    - Traveling to El Salvador and seeing how it works in person
    - The debasement of the money openly and in a deceitful manner by the government
    - Money doesn’t need to be legal tender by the decree of the government rather than - - the buy-in of the people
    - The people building on top of it
    - Hundreds of hours of podcasts and attending several Bitcoin meetups/conferences
    - Seeing the working man get screwed by price hikes while banks get bailed out and 
    - Billionaires by private jets with PPP money

    Overall, I would love to hear what made you understand Bitcoin! Was it something you casually ran into, or was it something you started to learn about slowly overtime? 

    Best Regards, 

    SatsMate

  • Why We Drive Cheap Cars To Buy More Bitcoin!

    What's Up SatsMate Crew, 

    Over the past decade, my fiance and I have driven old beaters as a way to save money and optimize our investing future. This has been a great decision because we don't have as much overhead as others when it comes to investing for our future. In this podcast, I go over the following important topics: 

     - My Philosophy on Cars
    -  It could be gone in an instant
    -  The overhead on cars
    -  What most people do when it comes to cars
    -  The law of tradeoffs as it comes to car valuations (Dave Ramsey’s saying) 
    -  The best feeling of cheap cars
    -  The ultimate goal of freedom, and sovereignty in this world
    -  The math on buying Bitcoin instead of a car (the math in the future)

    In the end, we need to all try to live our lives to our ultimate potential. For some of us, we are super passionate about cars and that is great! We should try to buy a nice car... For some, it is just a means to get from place to place. In the end, what are your thoughts on cars? Do you have a large amount of your net worth in vehicles? Do you have anything you would like to do differently in the future when it comes to vehicles? I would love to hear it! 

    Best Regards,

  • Why I Buy Bitcoin Instead of Allocating Towards the Traditional Path!

    What is up SatsMate Crew, 

    In the end, we need to know that when it comes to retirement, we need to look out for ourselves when it comes to saving and investing. There won't be anybody giving us a handout in our golden years, rather we need to put up the work and investments when we are young, healthy, and capable. 

    In today's podcast, I go over the following topics and dive into my lines of thought surrounding this topic. 

    - Retirement and associated cons 
    - Pension and the cons associated
    - Social Security pros and the cons
    - Money under mattress disadvantages
    - Stock market pros and cons
    - Real Estate disadvantages
    - Shiny yellow rock/commodity drawbacks
    - Bitcoin, its cons, and its traits over the former investment avenues

    Anyway, I would love to hear your thoughts on this topic. I know it is such a critical conversation with yourself and your loved ones because at the end of the day, we need to look out for ourselves when we can't earn as much anymore. 

    Best Regards,

  • What Stops Other Coins from Overtaking Bitcoin?

    Hello SatsMate Crew, 

    We are seeing the euphoria increasing as prices get higher in Bitcoin and crypto as a whole. 

    People naturally are drawn into the gains, and many people start to question why can't other coins flip or pass Bitcoin up. In today's podcast, I try to discuss these points and lay out why this isn't as viable. 

    -It happens every day when new projects come out
    -The concept is pure, as with other coins, founders dump bags on retail
    -Countless attempts to recreate Bitcoin
    -Nobody stops you from creating your own, but who will follow?
    -Out of the altcoins that have come, which ones have had good track records?
    -Could it happen? Maybe - it's unlikely. 
    -Network effects are powerful, it's important though for Bitcoiners to continue learning about how to strengthen the base layer
    The base layer is so important in Bitcoin, interesting developments over the past couple of years regarding ordinals

    Overall nothing is new here! Now many projects will tout how they are AI-focused, how they are looking to change the world and change finance forever. In the end, these projects are often sold as snake oil. Anyone can copy Bitcoin code at any time, the big thing that Bitcoin has is the pure conception and the network effects on a bedrock foundation. 

    I'd love to hear your thoughts as well! Do you think there is a possibility that Bitcoin could be overtaken? 

    Best Regards,

  • Bitcoin Fixes This! Another $1.2T Spending Package into Law!

    What's up SatsMate Listeners! 

    Nothing is too surprising here regarding the passing of the latest spending bill of the $1.2T Spending Package! While it is unfortunate, in today's podcast I go over potential solutions and lines of thought we want to accustom ourselves to. 

    In this podcast specifically, I go over the important talking points of: 

    -When will the madness of spending end?
    -The government is now funded until 10/1/2024, kicking the can down the road
    -They say neither side got what they wanted, but in reality, they got what they wanted, the American people didn’t get what they wanted
    -On a Gold Reserve or a Bitcoin reserve currency, you couldn’t just this stuff as easily, as if you don’t have the coffers, you can’t go into debt! 
    -In the end, we need to reduce government spending by cutting government programs, getting rid of regulation, increasing production in the U.S., and taking actions to lean us towards a budget surplus, not a budget deficit

    What are your thoughts to the government's nonstop spree of going into debt to pay bills? Are there any fixes to this? Do you think Bitcoin fixes this to any capacity? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

  • Bitcoin Businesses and the Challenges to Adoption!

    What's up, Everyone, 

    Countries around the world are adopting Bitcoin at a faster rate than the U.S. from a merchant point and why is that? In today's podcast, I try to explore reasons why this is happening including: 

    - Tax Rules, Tax Rules, Tax Rules
    -  A  starter kit for those who want things 
    - Questions on questions despite a sea of resources out there
    - Individuals don't know many things like the marketing, tax implications, technology, and regulatory implications
    - Cash on hand to meet operating expenses (Needs to be a treasury solution)
    - Needs to be something to explain to a 2-3 year old
    - Solutions must be made for larger sum lightning transactions (Above 2M Sats - Inbound/outbound liquidity)
    - Self Custody needs to be turnkey (Block)
    - Square Terminals/CashApp and Blocks New Bitkey... There needs to be more competitors and products
    - You can't help everyone, kits need to be made ready for those who are open to learning and willing to adapt
    - Businesses want ease. They want to focus on the products in front of them, not deal with money
    - Selling businesses the opportunity for a harder treasury solution while saving on tx fees could be a big win! 

    What are your thoughts on Bitcoin Businesses? Do you think it is too challenging in the United States to get this going, or do you think things could be done to make merchant adoption a bit easier?

  • A Warning of Altcoin Traders, Shillers, & Scammers!

    What's Up, Everyone!? 

    We just entered this huge hype cycle a few short years ago and are now hearing all about it! People are making a lot of money on extremely speculative plays and it is causing more and more people to fall for the hype and enter risky bets. 

    In today's podcast, I will discuss these important topics: 

    - Terra Luna experienced losing all my money
    - Being in crypto to make a quick buck
    - Office normies being up several hundred percent on certain investments
    - Certain people investing heavily in altcoin and meme-coin garbage
    - Casino metaphor and losing big money gambling
    - Influencers, pumpers, and chillers posting about certain coins
    - Rugs being played out in real life and CSR being found out not to be Satoshi by the court of law
    - A culture of clouting things we don't own
    - Bitcoiners touting ETFs being good for Bitcoin when in reality it is open for government capture in the next couple of years
    - Understanding why we are in Bitcoin, and remaining level-headed with investments
    - High-time preference behavior, sky-high prices in everything - and individuals trying to eke out small gains as things are breaking
    - My History losing all my own money trading alts

    What are your thoughts on meme coins, alts, and these speculative plays? Do you think we will see more regulation in this space soon, or do you think we are past all this?

  • Can we Ever Approach a Better System? A fiat Rant!

    Hey Everyone, 

    In the fiat system, we live in, incentives are completely backward and often even rewarded. I am a millennial who is frustrated seeing where our country is headed, and by fixing the money, many of these issues we see day in and out can also be fixed. 

    We need to see a move to a better system, and I think that could be Bitcoin. In this podcast I discuss the following important topics: 

    - Warren Buffet and others found front-running
    - Senators and congressmen make $175K a year and are worth several hundred million
    - Homes across the U.S. are all 40% overpriced, sitting vacant, and being bought up by hedge funds hollowing out the middle class.
    - Incentive structures are broken across healthcare, all types of insurance, HOA and Taxation
    - Short-term gambling is incentivized over long-term prudent investing 
    - Creating a society of junkies chasing fiat gains, over long-term approaches
    - A real decline can be seen, but can this be better?
    - How Bitcoin can fix these different avenues! 

    I'd love to hear your thoughts on this! If you enjoyed the podcast please be sure to share this around. I enjoyed this one!

  • Be A Mountain! Don't Let FOMO Get You!

    What is up Sats Crew, 

    Every day it is easy to turn on the news and see the neck-snapping appreciations in Bitcoin. The rise of this asset is causing heads to turn all around the world regarding the potential of this future world reserve asset. 

    In the end, it is important to not let the short-term gains and media hype get to us, rather it is better to keep a level approach anchored to knowledge and understanding of the asset. 

    In today's podcast, I go over some very important topics regarding FOMO and keeping a level head. These topics include: 

    - Understanding Bitcoin on a deeper level - and continuously studying the asset
    - Knowing many people often get into things when the hype is high (and the price), but ignore when the hype is low (and the price)
    - Look at NVIDIA, GameStop, Tesla, or any investment, people always are talking and hyping the euphoria but it is dead silence in the bear markets
    - Bitcoin meetups and Conferences are often dead compared to during the bull markets
    - Price rises can keep people out, but many times, the price dropping keeps people out as well

    I'd love to hear your thoughts on the inflow of FOMO and people who have been on the sidelines for the last couple of years! What are your thoughts on the boom/bust cycles we see amongst investors in this asset class? 

    When everything shakes out, I think it is of high importance to be in this for the right reason, not just for fiat gains, or cause we are rich on paper. Rather we are here because we believe this asset will change the entire world.
