I’m absolutely elated to announce that I have joined Strive as Vice President, Investments. As you can probably tell, I’ve been obsessed with Bitcoin, capital markets, and the extraordinary financial architecture emerging at the intersection of the two. Now I get to work on that frontier every day. Strive is building alongside one of the most consequential transformations happening in modern finance. Bitcoin becoming productive collateral for an entirely new generation of capital markets instruments, corporate finance, and digital credit. The opportunity to help think through these markets, communicate them, and contribute to what comes next is something I could not be more excited about. Even better, I get to do it alongside an incredible team of talented, ambitious people who are genuinely pushing the frontier forward. I also understand the responsibility that comes with the role. I intend to work relentlessly on behalf of Strive’s shareholders and do everything I can to contribute to the long-term value we are building for them. I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity. Time to build.

Strive had gone far too long without hiring a podcaster. As our Bitcoin holdings have grown exponentially through accretive capital formation, our podcasters-per-share metric was beginning to move in the wrong direction. Several astute investors have been calling on us to defend

The world is totally asleep to the fact that Bitcoin is the greatest collateral to ever exist and now is the time to front run. The implications of this asymmetry are staggering.

Want a bullish Bitcoin chart? We're now 210 days off the Bitcoin/Gold ratio bottom (Mar 1, 2026). I went back to every prior cycle BTC/Gold low and checked what BTC did from this exact spot 👇 Median BTC return from day 210: 3M: +1% 6M: +43% 9M: +71% 12M: +120% 18M: +275% 24M: +390% 3 for 3 cycles were up big over 18 and 24 months: 2015 → +1,347% 2019 → +390% 2022 → +290% The catch: the first few months are usually flat, and 2019 was DOWN 30% before it went parabolic. Boring now. Violent later. Median path from here: ~$187K in 12 months, ~$416K in 24. n=3, not financial advice, but history's been loud:

Waiting for Bitcoin to get cheaper can be one of the most expensive trades in finance. I tested it. I looked at every new 52-week closing high in BTC since 2017. That's 216 of them. On each one, an investor says "too high, I'll wait for a pullback." The pullback always came. The problem was the price it came at. Waiting for a 10% dip took 14 days (median). 57% of the time, you bought HIGHER than the price you passed on. Waiting for a 20% dip took 44 days. 52% of the time, you paid more. Waiting for a 30% crash took 134 days, and up to 881. 61% of the time, you paid more. The payoff is lopsided: When waiting worked, you saved about 19%. When it didn't, you overpaid by about 76%. Aug 2020: BTC made a new high at $12,300. If you waited for a 30% crash, it did come. You bought at $43,580. You got your crash. You paid +254% for it. The dip you're waiting for often starts from a peak you haven't seen yet:

When are People Going to Wake Up?

Today is a special day for me. I've made $3M with my 36 startups. Solo. 85% margin. Bootstrapped. It took 10 years, and I loved every second of it. After failing as an entrepreneur for 5 years, I got a job in 2021. That's when I discovered @levelsio's journey and decided to try again. "If he can do it, maybe I can too?" So I started building tiny startups and writing about it. 2021 and 2022 were quiet, but I was having fun. Everything changed in 2023 when I launched ShipFast and made my first million. Building something people finally paid for and enjoyed made me so happy. My first 5 years of failures taught me not to get emotionally attached to a project, because everything goes to 0 eventually. So I just kept shipping. It's 2026, and I've launched 36 startups. 50% never made money. Only 11% made decent money. Back in 2016, when I started, I believed I would make it. If I had known it would take 7 years of failure, I probably would never have started. That's why I'm stupidly optimistic. I don't think in years. I don't dream big. I think in weeks. I build tiny projects fast. And I quit even faster. That's how I wake up happy, enjoy the journey, and eventually build life-changing projects. If you've been following the journey, thank you. You've given my posts a sense of purpose, which has kept me going, and I'm very grateful for this. ❤️

Around the time I launched this SaaS, OpenAI and Anthropic started indexing the website. ChatGPT and Claude are now crawling Stalkr ~100 times a day to answer user queries. Meanwhile, Google started training its models 2+ weeks ago, when I didn't really talk about Stalkr at all. What I understand from this: - Backlinks help you get discovered by LLMs - People talking about your app is how AI labs really pick it up

I've discontinued the CodeFast & ShipFast affiliate programs. Over the last few months, their revenue has dropped significantly, mostly due to AI. The conversion rate is lower in 2026, and affiliates have made ~$0. So it's not worth it. It's fun how AI accelerates everything. To stay in business, you have to be ready to move super fast. Somehow it's nice because you can't take anything for granted.

If you're an affiliate and you've sent 500+ visitors to CodeFast/ShipFast in the last 3 months, please DM your affiliate link and proof so I can compensate you. DataFast affiliate program remains up and running! The SaaS is doing $30K+ MRR now, so it's either to get commissions because people trust the product more: datafa.st/affiliates
