NOLAN BAUERLE: 🟠 "Satoshi Nakamoto, when he created Bitcoin, actually did something even more fundamental with cryptography... It's that he put cryptographic keys directly into people's hands."

"We live in a digital world. Putting keys in people's hands is almost akin to putting a magic wand into the hands of individuals."

"Eliminates almost all the need for a lot of the third party architecture that you see built around us from the digital age and the fiat age."

HISTORY: 🟠 16 years ago today, Satoshi Nakamoto said: "If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry."

STRATEGY Q2 RESULTS: 🟠 $17B RAISED, NEW BITCOIN CREDIT METRICS, $218M BTC SOLD

Strategy raised $17.06 billion through its capital programs in 2026, including $7.53 billion from STRC, and increased its holdings to 843,775 BTC.

The company built a $3.75 billion USD Reserve, enough to cover preferred dividends and interest payments for more than 2.1 years.

It repurchased $1.5 billion of convertible notes at an 8% discount, bought back STRC below par, and sold $218.4 million of bitcoin to help fund preferred dividends.

Future bitcoin sales may also replenish the reserve and finance share repurchases.

The report also introduces two new metrics.

BTC Hurdle ARR, currently 10.8%, represents Strategy’s effective cost of credit. CFO Andrew Kang said that when Bitcoin’s annual return exceeds that hurdle, Net Bitcoin Per Share grows faster than bitcoin itself.

BREAKING: 🟠 Coinkite has issued a security advisory for Coldcard Mk3 users. If you generated a seed on a Mk3 running firmware 4.0.1 (March 2021) or later, your funds may be at risk.

The issue appears to be related to the device's random number generator during seed creation.

Mk4, Q, and Mk5 are not affected.

If you used a BIP-39 passphrase on top of your Mk3 seed, Coinkite says the risk is minimal. If you didn't, you should migrate your funds to a new seed generated on an unaffected device.

Don't rush. Send a test transaction first, verify the new wallet, then move the rest. More details from Coinkite's investigation are coming.
