Yasss!!!

Just received this in the mail. Time to binge. Thank you @pastorcoin. #thebibleandbitcoin @JoelHodlman have you read this one yet?

Father’s Day hits different when you look at where the story started. From two people celebrating the possibility of a little girl… to me holding her hand and realising she has completely changed what “success” means. The gym builds strength. Bitcoin builds freedom. Work builds a future. But fatherhood gives all of it a purpose. One day that tiny hand won’t need mine to cross the road. Until then, I’m going to be present for every walk, every laugh, every lesson and every ordinary moment I’ll eventually wish I could have back. My greatest responsibility. My greatest blessing. My greatest proof of work. Happy Father’s Day to every dad building himself into the man his children deserve. ❤️ Stack sats. Build strength. Raise them right.

A dear friend asked me this yesterday, and I thought I’d throw it to some of the serious Bitcoiners on here: “Bruzzy — sell me on why physically holding your BTC is such a big deal? Why go through the effort, responsibility and complexity of self-custody when you could simply have the same capital exposure through a managed Bitcoin ETF?” Fair question. So, Bitcoiners — if you had ONE shot at convincing someone why owning the actual Bitcoin matters more than simply owning exposure to its price… What would you tell them? Self-custody vs ETF. Make the case. 👇leaving the floor for the veterans here @JoelHodlman @HodlFlorida @ForrestHODL @JoshuaDHCM @seanclarke911 @FinCreighton @AAStack @BeefButterBTC @BTC_JEDI21

The man with a plan!

I don’t know what all my problems are… But I’m pretty damn sure the answer looks something like this: Lift heavier. Build strength. Eat well. Stack sats. ₿ Get closer to God. 🙏 Be present with my wife. Make memories with my daughter. ❤️ Strong body. Strong faith. Strong family. Sound money. Maybe life doesn’t need to be that complicated. #Stacksats #Buildstrength #Loveyourfamily #WalkwithGod Everything else is noise.

Look what I found buried in my daughter’s toy basket. 😂 Apparently the Coldcard has found its new threat model. After the recent security drama, I guess it’s been reassigned from protecting generational wealth to teaching toddlers their numbers. 😭 “Okay sweetheart… 1, 2, 3, 4… and this button used to secure Daddy’s Bitcoin.” 😂 At least it’s still useful for something. Cold storage ➡️ toy storage. #Bitcoin #Coldcard #SelfCustody #notyourkeysnotyourcoins

The formula stays undefeated: Stack sats. Build strength. Repeat. One rep at a time. One sat at a time. One day at a time. No shortcuts. No hype. Just consistency compounding in the background while most people are still waiting for motivation. The body gets stronger. The stack gets bigger. The future gets harder to shake. Shoutout to @amberapp for making the stacking side ridiculously simple while I handle the iron. Proof of work in the gym. Proof of work in the wallet. Stack & Strength. 🧡₿💪

It feels like it was only yesterday that I was standing there, overwhelmed with emotion, cutting your umbilical cord and holding you for the very first time. And today… I’m sitting here assembling your first bike. 🥹 Everyone tells you how quickly they grow up, but you never truly understand it until it’s your own little girl growing right in front of your eyes. One day I was carrying you home in my arms. Now I’m getting ready to watch you ride away on two wheels. Time, please slow down. I’m not ready for these moments to become memories just yet. Watching you grow is the greatest privilege of my life, baby girl. From cutting the cord to building your first bike… and every little milestone still to come. Dad will be right there for all of it. ❤️

There is no amount of money, status or success that could replace moments like this. Walking beside my baby girl, watching her take in the world… this is winning. You can chase wealth your entire life, but some things are simply priceless. No riches could ever buy this moment back once it has passed. Blessed beyond words. Grateful to be present. Grateful for the ordinary days that I know one day I’ll desperately wish I could relive. She may not remember every one of these walks. But I will. ❤️ And I hope she always remembers that her dad was there — to guide her, protect her, love her and walk beside her through every season of life. “As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him.” — Psalm 103:13 This is wealth. This is purpose. This is the good life. 🙏❤️

Some Bitcoiners have accidentally turned self-custody into a purity test. If your setup needs three hardware wallets, geographically distributed backups, inheritance logic, a dedicated node and a 40-page recovery guide just to feel “secure,” we’ve probably lost the plot. That level of protection can make sense for some people. It should not be the baseline for everyone. For mass adoption, self-custody has to be simple enough that an average person can understand it, use it correctly, and recover from mistakes without needing to become an operational security expert. A strong single-sig setup with properly generated keys, passphrase and sensible backups can be perfectly reasonable for many users. More complexity can reduce some risks while introducing completely new ones. There is no medal for having the most complicated wallet setup. The best custody solution is the one you actually understand, can maintain, and can recover. Bitcoin gives us choice. Stop turning one custody model into a religion.

The last few days have been a blur. Baby’s health. The Coldcard situation. Life doing what life does. My dad-bod to fit-bod journey stalled for a minute… but we’re back. Because this is more than training. This is my drug. My therapy. My lifestyle. Life gets messy. Plans get interrupted. Security gets tested. You adapt, learn and come back stronger. In the gym. In life. In cold storage. The grind continues. Build strength. Stack sats. Strengthen security. Repeat. Nothing changes. 🧡💪₿

This is where my CC Q is going!

Just took the Bitcoin Depression Index and scored 5/100. Apparently, I’m not depressed at all. 😂 Stacking sats, training daily and staying focused on the long game must be working. Bitcoin fixes a lot. 🟠💪 bitcoindepression.com/result…
