A billion-dollar transaction

⚡️Trump’s crypto adviser and Bitcoin Magazine co-founder David Bailey fulfilled his “dream” on August 12 — buying $760M worth of bitcoin in a single order.

🔥Bailey is a well-known figure in the BTC community, owner of Bitcoin Magazine, and organizer of the largest crypto conferences in the U.S. He launched the Nakamoto holding company, which is going public and has already raised $710M from top investors like VanEck, Jihan Wu, and Ricardo Salinas.

‼️Nakamoto will become the first public holding to use bitcoin as a strategic asset and issue bitcoin-backed stocks and bonds. The goal — to make BTC a base asset for companies and even government institutions worldwide.

The Day the Dollar Lost Its Gold

💡On August 14, 1971, Nixon “temporarily” suspended the dollar’s convertibility into gold at $35 per ounce. That “temporary” move became permanent — and real money was broken.

🐶 Every year, crypto exchange Coinbase reminds us of this moment, ending with Hayek’s 1984 prophecy:

«Good money will only return if we take it out of the hands of government. Not by force — but by creating something they cannot stop.»

Giant exchange run by 11 people

🚀DEX platform Hyperliquid has become the most profitable company in the world by revenue per employee - $102.4M per person.

💰For comparison: Tether makes $93M, OnlyFans - $37.6M. Then comes a cosmic gap: Nvidia - $3.6M, Apple - $2.4M!

🐶Hyperliquid’s entire team is just 11 people. Minimum staff, maximum profit. That’s what the future of lean business looks like.

And what do you think: is the future in compact crypto-teams or in giant corporations?

The birth of a legend

🦋On August 20, 2008, Satoshi sent his first email to Adam Back, the creator of Hashcash, to verify a quote from his work and discuss the idea of Proof-of-Work for p2p-money.

⚡️On October 31, 2008, Satoshi published the white paper: “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System.” Just two months later, on January 3, 2009, the "genesis block" was mined — the very first block in the blockchain, laying the foundation for decentralized money.

What do you think: when will the fiat era finally end, and all transactions become decentralized? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Probability of Loss in BTC

💡In the short run, the odds of being down are high: nearly 47% in a single day, and after a month it’s still around 42%. But the longer you hold, the closer that number gets to zero.

🫱Over three years, the chance of being in the red is less than 1%. Over ten years — it’s 0%. Nobody has ever lost by simply holding.

🦋The lesson is clear: Bitcoin isn’t for trading, it’s for the patient. Want to win? Learn to wait.

When Whales Wake Up

🐋An anonymous Bitcoin whale just sold 24,000 BTC (~$2.7B) in a single transaction - instantly dragging the price down by almost $4,000 per coin!

💼These coins sat untouched for over 5 years, until suddenly part of the stash got liquidated. Wallets with this kind of dormant activity are extremely rare.

⚪️But here’s the catch: the whale still holds around 152,000 BTC (!!!). Analysts warn that if he decides to dump the rest, the price could crash to $60–70K per BTC.

What would you do in his place: smash the market in one move, or slowly unload during the next ATH? Share your strategies in the comments!

CZ Reminded Us of Bitcoin’s First Big Pump

🐶 Changpeng Zhao (Binance founder) shared a chart highlighting October 4, 2017 - the day BTC kicked off its run from $4,000 to $17,700 in just two months.

🚀 “Not trying to predict the future, and don’t lose your head. Just data,” CZ wrote, noting that it was his very first crypto market cycle.

Golden Trump, anyone?

🔥 Washington just got a 4-meter golden Trump statue right in front of the Capitol — holding a Bitcoin in his hand.

🐶 The stunt was pulled off by crypto investors to shill their memecoin DJTGST (Donald J. Trump Golden Statue Token). And yeah, they actually got a permit from the U.S. National Park Service to set it up.

⏫⏬ The token, as any memecoin should, pumped on the hype — and then instantly dumped back down.

When the Dollar Feels the Heat

🐶 Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater, said at the FutureChina forum in Singapore that America’s record budget deficit and debt are crushing the dollar’s strength.

⚡️ With $7T in spending and only $5T in revenue, the U.S. will need to dump nearly $12T worth of bonds - but global markets aren’t ready for that kind of supply. Dalio warns this could wreck the balance and shake the whole monetary system.

🚀 Against this backdrop, investors are flocking to gold and crypto. “Non-fiat assets are becoming the new way to store capital,” Dalio stressed.
