Happy Thanksgiving 2024
Don't Buy Bitcoin. Learn Bitcoin.
This is a time to reflect, give thanks, and share joy and love with your friends, family, and community. It’s also an opportunity to consider the things that truly matter—and for some, that might include learning about transformative technologies like Bitcoin.
Every time the price of Bitcoin experiences a dramatic increase, a wave of FOMO (fear of missing out) sweeps in, and many people start buying without taking the time to understand what they’re investing in. While the excitement is understandable, this approach often leads to disappointment and regret when the price fluctuates. Bitcoin is much more than just a price tag—it’s a revolutionary concept that requires knowledge and perspective to truly appreciate.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is priced around $97,484. Before you rush to buy, I strongly encourage you to pause and take the time to learn about Bitcoin. It’s not just another get-rich-quick scheme or “shitcoin.” Bitcoin represents a groundbreaking, new asset class that requires understanding, patience, and commitment.
Is there risk involved? Absolutely. Nothing in life—or investing—is guaranteed. But if you have the ability to set aside even $100 to gain some skin in the game, it can be a valuable way to start your learning journey. However, if you’re not willing to invest time in understanding Bitcoin’s technology, history, and its distinction from other cryptocurrencies, you’re gambling.
Yes, there are stories of people walking into casinos and hitting the jackpot. Could that happen to you? Sure. But what are the odds? Similarly, there are many potential investments out there. Are some good? Possibly, yes. Are some even better than Bitcoin? Perhaps.
But let’s consider the bigger picture: Bitcoin has the potential to become the future of currency—a decentralized system of value that no government or centralized organization can control. The implications of this are enormous.
If you want to be part of something revolutionary—on the scale of the invention of the light bulb or the internet—you owe it to yourself to learn about Bitcoin rather than sitting on the sidelines and dismissing it as “too expensive.”
Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Take the first step. Learn, question, and understand. This isn’t just about money—it’s about being part of a movement that could reshape the world.
Let’s give thanks today for the opportunities we have to grow, learn, and be part of something bigger than ourselves.
