Walking up tired again, but soon regained my strength. The world is a curious place and I’m not entirely sure what I want to say…. Let’s investigate what lies within me when my mind is too tired to fight back!

Yes I have been paying way too much attention to the crypto market this past few months, and yes it’s true I can’t let it out of my mind haha but I feel like here is a space where I can grow and become strong. Independent and free at last!

I have seen many projects come and go and through it all I always come back to the same old asset that begun the whole revolution… BTC. I do believe the whole system right now resembles a game of musical chairs, and when the music stops those hodling bitcoin will be allright… and those who don’t… well… I don’t know. That is why I try to tell people about it, but I always fall in def ears. I guess people need me to show them in order to understand… I guess only in time they will realize. If I am right in my thesis, then every year should be more obvious to them what is happening. If I am correct then, eventually they will come around. By then might be too late… but it is their fate, and I cannot force them to go through a door they don’t want to go through.


Eventually everything finds it’s place I think. After all, we don't have as much control as we like to think. Patience is something I constantly have to re-learn, and say to myself over and over again. It is the mother of all virtues, the bedrock of morality itself. For it is easy to pick the assets to hold, but then the waiting begins and the grow is small… yet with patience… it compounds over time and in a few years it reaches high above.

I foundthis new platform, it’s called Svoeryn… it's my favourite so far! DEFI on Bitcoin! What could be better than that! It is a really high yield environment and I get to hold my assets in BTC. I think this might be it for me… at least for now. I have a feeling that it would be possible to amass great amounts of BTC and earn the dividends from this… potentially make a living out of it, and not have to work so much… it shouldn’t be completely out of the question. As a rule of thumb I would love to get to 0.1BTC as a little goal for myself… I am halfway there :) of course… eventually reach a full one. That would give me some peace of mind in regards to the future. Although if BTC is gonna rally as I think it will… this could take me all my life… But, eventually if I keep adding a percentage of every paycheck and keep making dividends on it… then it stands to reason that it will reach that stage, if sustained long enough… We shall see… that is my plan for now!

I envision a world in which I use debt to further my goals. Once lockdown is over and I find myself a job… I could get a credit card and a personal loan. As long as I can cover the monthly payments and the interest is lower than the yield from holding BTC it would be  great move. Then I can slowly repay them as I watch my sats grow.

If I can mine spaceMesh and learn to run nodes I could buy a cheap computer on afterpay… Which hopefully will pay for itself ten fold. Then who knows? I could just add more and more computers with the money I make mining... It could completely replace my day job. Then I only need a little room with computers running, maybe switch to solar power if the costs get too high… And every now and then take part of the profits and turn them to BTC and earn yield on them as well.

I can further use debt to buy a house… Imagine if the mortgage could be paid by the mining… while everyday expenses get covered with the BTC yield…. What a crazy world would that then be… crazy indeed!

It seems that we stand in the dawn of a new age. A very different one, and those who pay attention could make a huge financial jump. Those who await on the sidelines could be left behind… It is a scary thought, specially considering how many of the ones I love don’t want to know about all this. Sometimes I wish I was wrong, so they won’t hae to suffer as I think they will. But I don’t believe I am. And oftentimes, pain is the only thing that out’s us on the move, without it we’d languish n the same spot, doing the stuff, day over day… night after night.

The future is very uncertain, but at least I am extremely optimistic, and I believe I’m on the right track. Yes it is true that I have made many mistakes this past few months… But I believe in my heart that I have finally found the right moves to make… and now is a matter of doing it over and over, until enough compounding kicks in :)
