Taking a piece of Kraków back home! 🇵🇱⚡️
​Massive shoutout to artist Olga Litvinova and the crew at Gallery36. Picked up some incredible original local paintings to bring back after wrapping up the BTC conference.
​They even took the time to teach me how to carefully deconstruct the canvas from the frame so I can safely travel with them—an absolute game-changer for bringing art on a flight.
​I can't seem to find Olga on here, but I hope she's either already on the platform or finds her way over to Nostr soon. Incredible talent. 🎨

Walking around Krakow and it’s hard not to notice how normalized Bitcoin ATMs have become here. They’re in major malls like Galeria Krakowska and M1, gas stations, and standalone 24/7 spots right in the Old Town.
​While the EU pushes harder on financial surveillance, it’s good to see physical cash-to-BTC infrastructure surviving and thriving in Polish cities. Cash in, sats out.

Couldn’t agree more. Part of my strategy was to purchase btc ETFs to offset my taxes with tax deferred accounts, but I would still be at the mercy of government money. Finding examples in history where redeeming gold for fiat was no longer possible from one day to the next is an eye opener

Fiat under the gold standard was only redeemable in calm times. WWI, Great Depression, Vietnam/Nixon — all suspended redemption. If governments could flip the switch then, they’ll flip it again now. Bitcoin fixes this

Makes me question my strategy with Bitcoin etfs.

That is what is mentioned with 'no counterpart risk' or being a final settlement. "Not your Keys, Not your Coins" One of the key properties of sound money. Al least now you understand. Whatever you decide you know the risks. Compared to those who don't have a clue, that is a huge advantage !

My buddy said:
“Well the fact you keep talking about it as if you’re a caveman that saw fire for the first time…”

He’s not wrong.🔥🧠

Talking to a friend of mine, and I told him I felt so behind on accumulating sats.

His response “stack, and stay humble”. Another thing he told me almost a year ago, “everyone gets the price they deserve”.

To those who feel late in the game, just keep your head down and do the work. Many of us have access to funds locked away in stocks, or real estate. Be creative and make it happen.

Most importantly, do the research to increase your own conviction.
