To investors,
Everyone wants bitcoin. That is becoming increasingly clear on a daily basis. We saw announcement after announcement this week proving the desirability of a scarce digital currency.
First, we saw Jimmy Patronis, CFO for the state of Florida, go on CNBC and advocate for bitcoin to be put on the state’s balance sheet.
Patronis highlighted the overreach of government surveillance, the debasement of the US dollar, and a path to resisting the woke policies of the current administration.
Next, we saw the central bank of Argentina open an “art exhibit” that features ASICs that are actively mining bitcoin.
This is the first central bank I am aware of that is mining bitcoin. Many people will point to the “art exhibit” label, but this looks like a clever way for the central bank to start mining bitcoin without sounding any alarms inside other countries or monetary authorities.
Next, MicroStrategy announced their intention to raise $42 billion in debt and equity over the next 3 years to purchase more bitcoin. They have already spent a few billion dollars in 2024, but the plan is to ramp up spending aggressively.
Lastly, Blackrock’s bitcoin ETF set a new record for single day inflow this week. More importantly, their ETF has seen the third largest inflows year-to-date of any ETF in financial markets.
As I said, everyone wants bitcoin, including individuals, financial institutions, corporations, and central banks. Satoshi created a piece of technology that solved one of the hardest problems in the world — protecting the purchasing power of people, companies, and governments.
An idea’s time has come.
Hope you all have a great end to your week. I’ll talk to everyone on Monday.
