Why Hyperbitcoinization Could Be Bad Amongst the biggest believers of Bitcoin, there has long been a theory about what the future world will look like. A future where Bitcoin has fulfilled all of its potential and has taken the world by storm. Where Bitcoin has not only skyrocketed up to unfathomable prices, but has become currency of choice for nearly everyone. This has been called Hyperbitcoinization. For many of us this is a result that we have not only been waiting for,…

Crypto Passive Income Is Becoming a Dangerous Minefield Things just aren't as easy as they used to be. That is a phrase many of us have probably heard at some point in our lives and have probably thought about many times as well. You can now apply that same phrase towards cryptocurrency and making a passive income with it. While it was once extremely easy to make a passive income with your bitcoin and crypto while maintaining peace of mind. That is no longer the case. Just…

My Crypto Portfolio Since I first got into Bitcoin and cryptocurrency several years ago, it's safe to say that it has taken over my life. I see the world completely differently compared to how I viewed it before going down the crypto rabbit hole. While admittedly, there have been some drawbacks to joining this industry, it has been an overwhelmingly positive experience. Life-changing in-fact. I feel confident that as the years go by, and I look back on my life. That I will…

I Took A Break From Crypto. This Is What I Learned Last week I did something that I don't normally do. I went on a long vacation to a beautiful tropical island and took a break from everything. While I do take trips on a regular basis, I almost always remain connected to what is happening in the "real world." Always keeping up to date on what is happening in the crypto markets, macro news, and just investing in general. While I was always technically on a holiday, my mind…

Once in a Generation Opportunity With Ethereum If you have been following my articles for a decent amount of time, you will have probably noticed that I talk most about Bitcoin and also building a passive income stream. Those are the two topics that I'm the most passionate about and talk about the most. But, perhaps you would be surprised to find out that I am nearly as passionate about Ethereum as I am those other two topics. I just don't usually discuss ETH as much as I…

Signs That You've Fallen Deep Down the Crypto Rabbit Hole Let's face it. You're here reading this article, and this means that you are most likely very passionate about cryptocurrency. Perhaps you are a real bitcoiner, or maybe you're really into smart contract chains like Ethereum, Solana and others. You may be here for the money or the tech, but there is one thing that is for certain. That the crypto market is most likely one of your biggest interests and passions. But,…

What IF This Whole Crypto Thing Doesn't Work Out? Welcome back for another round of my hypothetical "What IF" type of articles. In the past I have made posts talking about the positives and negatives that could happen if Hyperbitcoinization were to take place. And today I will be continuing this series and talking about What IF this whole crypto thing doesn't work out! In the long-term, I am as bullish as a person can be about crypto, especially Bitcoin. Believing that…

How Crypto Changed My Life You know that we are probably in a bear market when my articles begin to be less about the current Bitcoin, Ethereum and crypto markets. The prices that they could go to, and what is happening in the macro world as well. Instead moving towards topics more so about reflections of my experiences in this market, striving to become better, and also building for the future. That is exactly what I will be talking about today. While I'm as optimistic as…

Bitcoin's Future Price Catalysts The Bitcoin market has been in a downturn for nearly a year and a half now. The only exception was October of 2021 when we would see a brief momentum rally that led to new all-time high prices. But, it was short-lived and has been in the red since then. The excitement has been sucked out of the industry, and most would now admit that we have been in a bear market. For many, the last several months have not been a fun time to be investing in…

The Moment You've Reached Full Bitcoin Zen The last 18 months have not been a fun time to be investing in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets. Outside of October of last year, prices in the market have been dropping almost constantly. So much so, that people felt euphoric when we reached Bitcoin prices that were levels of extreme panic just a few weeks ago. Do you remember when Bitcoin dropping below $20k was the end of the world? Now, many would be thrilled to have the price…

My Crypto Earnings (August) August has now officially come to an end, and that also means that it is once again my favorite time of the month. This is the time that I calculate all of my crypto earnings throughout the previous month. If you are new, this is an ongoing series that I write. There are two purposes for why I write this earnings series. The first is to record and see my own progress that I am making towards financial freedom. This helps to keep me motivated. The…
