Hello Reader, There is, in my opinion, a nauseating amount of attention paid to Bitcoin’s price. And honestly, it’s hard to get away from it. Whether it’s pundits explaining the latest dump, perma-bulls calling for million-dollar Bitcoin, theories about Jane Street manipulation, chatter about ETFs and treasury companies “pumping our bags,” or endless arguments about the four-year cycle, the noise is constant. And it is noise. Inside and outside the Bitcoin world, many have lost sight of Bitcoin’s real value proposition. That does not mean price doesn’t matter. It does. And I also want to acknowledge something important: for those who first took a serious look at Bitcoin after hearing me speak in Tuscaloosa, the recent price drop may understandably feel discouraging or may even seem to undermine the message. That reaction is fair. Bitcoin has always been volatile in the short term. Over periods shorter than four years, sharp drawdowns are part of the territory. But over longer holding periods (five years and beyond), Bitcoin has historically been an extraordinarily strong performer. That does not eliminate volatility, but it does provide context. And context matters. Because Bitcoin is not merely an asset to speculate on. It is the most powerful censorship-resistant, peer-to-peer payment network humanity has ever seen. And if price deserves any mention, it should be to recognize how absurdly cheap Bitcoin still is relative to what it makes possible. That is what makes this week’s Video of the Week so important. It highlights why so many Americans struggle to fully appreciate Bitcoin’s value — while for billions living under authoritarian governments and financially repressive regimes, that value is obvious. Americans are tempted to believe, “That could never happen here.” But that assumption is exactly why voices from outside our system matter so much right now. If inflation has you feeling financially squeezed, or if you sense that fiat debasement is slowly stealing your purchasing power, this video offers more than analysis. It offers hope and a path forward. Please give it a watch. Twenty minutes could change the way you see money, freedom, and the future. As always, I’d love your feedback. Was this helpful? Did the video resonate with you or offer a perspective you had not previously considered? If so, I encourage you to visit TheBitcoinDentalNetwork.com, where you’ll find more curated content aimed at helping dentists and their teams better understand Bitcoin, sound money, and the changing financial world around us.

I’m a restorative dentist who got a hard wake-up call during the 2008 financial crisis. Since then, I’ve poured thousands of hours into understanding money, risk, and why costs keep rising in healthcare. I share the most useful, actionable resources I’ve found—especially for dentists, but helpful to anyone—so you can protect your financial health and your practice. That’s why I built The Bitcoin Dental Network. It’s free, practical, and no strings attached.
Hello Reader, All, In my last newsletter, I wrote about why Bitcoin bear markets are often where conviction is built. For those who purchased bitcoin at or near its recent highs, I know that idea may not feel especially comforting right now. Watching the dollar value of an investment decline is painful, and it is completely understandable to wonder whether the original decision was a mistake. I do not want to dismiss that concern or pretend that volatility is easy. But I do want to encourage...
Hello Reader, For those who attended my presentation in Tuscaloosa last August, I know the current bitcoin price action may feel discouraging. Watching bitcoin fall in dollar terms is never fun, especially if you are newer to the asset and still trying to understand whether you made the right decision. But here is the important context: this is not unusual for bitcoin. In fact, it is one of the most normal, recurring patterns in bitcoin’s history. Since bitcoin’s inception, every fourth year...
Hello Reader, With a new Fed Chair expected in 2026, most of the attention will be on who gets the job. But as Tom Bilyeu explains in this week’s video of the week, the more important question is whether the system has any real options left. This is one of the clearest explanations I’ve seen of financial repression, soft default through inflation, and why financial literacy matters now more than ever. I walked you through these principles last August, but this is a much more succinct and...
