Bitcoin security go up

Happy 17th Birthday, #Bitcoin! On January 3, 2009, the first Bitcoin block was mined anonymously by Satoshi Nakamoto. The first transaction was sent to the late Hal Finney on January 12. Satoshi remained active on the project until disappearing from public forums on December

$STRC $100 appears imminent. 11% dividend might be enough to get it there.

#Bitcoin is +2% so far this year. 🥲 🟥🟩🟩🟥🟩?

$MSTR has enough cash to pay pref dividends for 32 months without needing to raise another dime. Dividend payments are effectively assured in the near term.

If $MSTR doesn't go up in 2026 I'm going to look pretty stupid

$MSTR posted six consecutive down months, its longest losing streak since adopting Bitcoin. A true test of conviction, in my view. The price action was necessary to shake out the lettuce hands/tourists, of which there were a lot from late 2024.

#Bitcoin posted its third consecutive monthly decline. Down 3% in august.

$STRC 11% dividend

Bitcoin ended the year down 6%. The four-year cycle narrative is officially dead.

All I see is opportunity. $MSTR

2025 returns: Western Digital: +268.4% IREN: +261.1% Micron Technology: +226.8% Cipher Mining: +205.6% Robinhood: +186.8% Silver: +149.1% Palantir: +136.4% Gold: +64.5% Strive: +50.5% NVIDIA: +34.8% Riot Platforms: +21.1% NASDAQ: +20.5% Tesla: +18.6% S\&P 500: +16.7% Metaplanet:

Worst. Year. Ever. $MSTR

Anotha' one. $TSLA

Gradually, then suddenly.

Looks like creator payouts are going way way way way up.

The breakeven point (cost basis) of $MSTR's bitcoin is $75K. Bitcoin has fallen below this level in the past, and nothing happened. Strategy just kept buying more.

Tomorrow is Warren Buffett's last day as CEO of Berkshire. He leaves the company with $382B in cash. A giant melting ice cube. I remain hopeful that the new management understands #Bitcoin.

$MSTR leverage ratio ("amplification") has moved higher, implying greater upside as BTC recovers. However, leverage still remains below the historical average.

2026 looks bright for #Bitcoin after this year's major developments: -Trump inaugurated; Bitcoin universally supported by administration -U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve created -$25B+ IBIT inflows -U.S. passed the GENIUS Act -In-kind redemption of spot ETFs approved -Approval of
