Hello Reader, Many of you may feel like I’ve become a bit of a broken record—but if something is repeated this often, it’s because it matters that much. The more I study our monetary system, the more I realize how shocking the rules of the “game” really are. And whether you’re aware of it or not (and I’m trying to change that), understanding those rules is essential if you want to maintain any sense of financial autonomy. At the end of the day, every human being craves freedom. Financial...

Hello Reader, If you’ve been following this newsletter, you already know my core thesis: Our monetary system is broken. Bitcoin is one of the few tools that can protect and empower regular people. Most “pain” in a crisis comes not from the event itself, but from being unprepared and overexposed. This week’s Video of the Week fits perfectly into that frame. 🎥 Video of the Week: The 2026 Reset In this clip, Elon lays out a simple but uncomfortable idea: Crashes don’t destroy wealth. They...

Hello Reader, This Is a Big Deal! Over the past 16 years, Bitcoin has quietly established itself as the best store of value in the world — some even call it “pristine collateral.” But critics have long said Bitcoin isn’t really money because “you can’t buy anything with it.” They argue it’s not yet a medium of exchange. That’s a bit of a chicken-or-egg problem: merchants don’t accept Bitcoin because few customers spend it, and customers don’t spend it because few merchants accept it. Sound...

Hello Reader, 🟠 So What Can I Do About It? Several of you have written back asking, “Okay Mark… but what can I actually do about the state of things?” It’s tough to stare reality in the face when it feels so big, so broken, and so far beyond our control — especially when it comes to money and the monetary system. What can the “little guy” possibly do to protect themselves, their family, and their friends? It’s easy to feel overwhelmed… to let hopelessness or apathy creep in. But here’s the...

Hello Reader, “There is nothing so permanent as a temporary government program.” — Milton Friedman, 1976 Nobel Laureate in Economics That quote comes from Milton Friedman’s book I’m from the Government and I’m Here to Help. It’s a great read, but in case you don’t have time, the TL;DR is this: once the government creates a program—especially one intended to be short-term—it rarely goes away. It becomes politically entrenched and nearly impossible to eliminate. Before you assume this post is...

Hello Reader, Many people first hear about Bitcoin as a way to grow wealth. But do a little digging, and you'll see it’s far more than just “number-go-up” tech. In fact, Bitcoin’s most profound promise is that it helps expand our freedom. This week’s video of the week demonstrates exactly what I mean by “freedom-go-up” technology. If you enjoyed that video, you can find more curated content at The Bitcoin Dental Network. I’d love to hear your thoughts after watching or listening — what...
