Happy New Year! Do you feel any different?

Everyone wants passive income. Nobody wants the 5 years of active work to build it. 'Passive' is just the end state. The beginning is brutal, boring, and not Instagram-worthy. That's why most people quit.

People say 'I can't afford to invest.' Same people: spent money on fireworks yesterday. It's not about affordability. It's about priorities. We fund what we actually care about.

Something I've noticed at work: The best hires come from weird backgrounds. Customer support → product manager. Community mod → growth lead. Nobody followed the 'traditional path.' Maybe there is no traditional path in crypto. Just people figuring it out.

Just learned about Mel Robbins' 5 Second Rule: When you have an instinct to act on a goal, count 5-4-3-2-1 and move. If you wait longer, your brain kills it with excuses. How many ideas have I killed by waiting 6 seconds instead of 5?

We're not in a tech race anymore. We're in an adoption race.

What's the best crypto project launched in 2025? Genuinely curious what people think stood out.

What book would you recommend that I read?

Crypto adoption in 2026: Will it accelerate or stall? What's your prediction?

Wondering what 2026 will bring to the crypto market 🤔

Bitcoin's fixed supply is the most important monetary innovation in human history.

If you could only hold one crypto for the next 5 years, which one and why?

Every major innovation looked unnecessary until it wasn't. Internet, smartphones, crypto. The pattern repeats.

Crypto gives individuals sovereignty over their wealth for the first time in history. That's not a small thing. That's everything.

The countries embracing crypto now will lead the next financial era. The ones fighting it will be left behind.

Decentralization isn't just technology. It's a shift in power from institutions to individuals. That's worth fighting for.

Bitcoin proved digital scarcity is possible. Everything that follows builds on that foundation. The innovation is just beginning.

The next billion crypto users won't come from crypto marketing. They'll come from apps that solve real problems where crypto is invisible underneath.

Every financial system eventually debases its currency. Bitcoin is the first money that mathematically can't. That's why it matters.
