Truflation (not the official U.S. government data) is a real-time inflation index based on online prices, rents, energy, goods, and other market data. It usually moves ahead of official statistics and currently suggests that inflationary pressure has largely faded.

However, it’s important to note that Truflation typically runs below official inflation figures, while the Federal Reserve relies on more conservative calculations.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the latest official CPI data shows that annual inflation stood at around 2.7% in December 2025.

When Truflation declines while official CPI remains elevated, it signals that markets are pricing in the future before the Fed does.

Historically, CPI often follows with a lag of 3 to 6 months.

Under these conditions, rate cuts become increasingly likely — which could support gold and crypto markets.

#Oil

The long-term oil chart looks unusual to me. What would have to happen for such a move to take place? Personally, I believe supply and demand matter more than anything in oil—and right now, the world is facing a production surplus. So a move like this, without a fundamental driver, seems unlikely.

Could an attack on Iran be the starting point of such a trend?
Or perhaps the DXY index experiences a sharp and unexpected collapse (as the world fully embraces cryptocurrencies and phases out fiat currencies)?
Or maybe energy demand surges significantly due to AI and electric vehicles?

In recent years, oil and similar assets seem to have been priced as if the world no longer needs them.

💦 The earnings yield of the S&P 500 is near its lowest level in the past 100 years.

The only time it was lower than this was during the dot-com bubble. When we say that “the S&P 500’s earnings yield is near historical lows,” it means:

1️⃣ Stock prices have risen much faster than corporate earnings
2️⃣ Valuations are stretched
3️⃣ The market is trading in expensive territory

In simple terms, stocks are priced very high relative to their fundamentals.

Almost all of us have said to ourselves at some point:

“I wish I had known about Bitcoin in the early years and bought it back then… I’d be a millionaire by now.”

Or even:

“I knew about it… so why didn’t I buy?”

It’s a beautiful dream.
And almost all of us have imagined it at least once.

But the reality is very different.

Many of these same people today become anxious over the smallest market pullback.
A 10% or 20% correction keeps them awake at night.
They constantly check prices, complain, panic, and feel frustrated when their portfolio value drops.

So the real question is:

How could someone who can’t tolerate today’s volatility survive the 80% to 90% crashes of previous cycles?

The truth is, Bitcoin’s journey has never been smooth or ideal.

It has been filled with brutal crashes, fear, disappointment, social pressure, and moments when many people gave up and sold.

Those who talk today about “legendary profits” rarely mention the “legendary pain” that came with them.

They don’t talk about the nights when they thought everything was over.
The days when 70% or 80% of their capital had disappeared.
The years when almost no one believed in the future.

Success in financial markets is rarely the result of pure intelligence or luck.

It is mostly the result of patience, discipline, and emotional resilience.

Big profits are rewards for those who were willing to endure long periods of pain —
not just for those who discovered an opportunity early.

Many people recognized Bitcoin early.
Very few were able to hold it.

And that is exactly where the difference lies
