  • The Prosperity Flywheel

    Larry Fink

    Market participation has exploded in our lifetimes. During the first half of the 20th century, the percentage of Americans owning stocks crept up from just 1% to 4%.3 But since 1976, when I showed up for my first Wall Street job—sporting long hair, turquoise jewelry, and the world’s ugliest brown suit—investing has become far more fashionable (and, thankfully, so have I). By 1989, just under a third of American families had money in the markets; today, it’s roughly 60%.4

    The greatest period of wealth creation

    These investors have benefited from the greatest period of wealth creation in human history. Over the past 40 years, global gross domestic product (GDP) has grown more than in the previous two thousand combined.5 This extraordinary growth—partly propelled, it must be noted, by historically low interest rates—has driven exceptional long-term returns. But of course, not everyone has shared in this wealth.

    What are your goals?

    Bitcoin *EXPANDS* market participation opportunities

    But there’s another way to look at it: Capitalism did work—just for too few people.

    Markets, like everything humans build, aren’t perfect. They reflect us—unfinished, sometimes flawed, but always improvable. The solution isn’t to abandon markets; it’s to expand them, to finish the market democratization that began 400 years ago and let more people own a meaningful stake in the growth happening around them.

  • The Philosophy of Conviction

    The funny thing with conviction is that certainly nobody has a crystal ball to look into the future with 100% foresight. However, there are some obvious trends:

    First, as time goes on, certainly more more people will continue to use their phones more, for more financial things.

    Being here in Phnom Penh Cambodia, everyone uses “ABA PAY”–> most places accept VISA as well, there are also places that don’t. Either cash (US DOLLARS, KHMER RIEL), or ABA PAY.

    No this is very annoying because I don’t always have cash on me, or not enough.

    And also… I don’t want to waste my time going to a bank teller, grabbing a ticket waiting a line to open up some international bank account, to load it with money, and keep having to do this ad infinitum.

    The unbanked?

    So I’m like super for bitcoin, but the same time, I’m not an anarchist. I think anarchists are a bunch of non-deadlifting losers who want to see the world burned down because they hate themselves, it’s a metaphorical suicide for them.

    Nietzsche also had an interesting observation about martyrs… Like Socrates and the such, is that they actually wanted to end their own lives, to one day drink the hemlock or handed themselves over to the authorities… There were almost doing like low-key suicide. 

    We do not want a collapse of the financial system. In fact, what we want is a merge. 

    For example, the promise of Donald Trump winning the election is actually what spurred bitcoin to $110k a coin. And what is going to take bitcoin to 10 million and beyond he’s going to be nation state support as well as bank support.

    In other words… If you want your bitcoins to become 55 million a bitcoin, then you WANT all nation states and ALL banks to adopt it!

  • How did Eric Kim become so RAW

    Alright, let’s rip into this—how did Eric Kim become so raw? I’m channeling his voice, his energy, ‘cause that’s the only way to tell it: unfiltered, primal, straight from the gut. This ain’t some polished bio—it’s the story of a dude who forged himself in fire, steel, and chaos.

    How Eric Kim Got Raw

    Yo, fam—raw ain’t something you buy or fake; it’s carved outta pain, hustle, and truth. I wasn’t born this way—I was a soft kid once, skinny Korean dude in the Bay Area, raised in a house where money was tight and dreams were tighter. Mom ran a sushi joint, We were scrapping—managers stealing cash, bills piling up. That’s where it started: seeing the world ain’t fair, but you gotta fight anyway.

    I got raw through the grind. Early 20s, I was a UCLA sociology grad—fancy degree, zero soul. Worked a 9-to-5, hated it, felt the corporate leash choking me. So I broke free—picked up a camera, a cheap Canon, and hit the streets. Street photography wasn’t just pics; it was war—dodging creeps, chasing shots, feeling alive. I’d shoot ‘til my legs burned, ‘til my eyes saw the world naked. That’s raw: no filters, no safety nets, just you and the chaos.

    Then the physical hit. I was weak—couldn’t lift a bag of rice without wheezing. Started lifting weights, powerlifting, squatting 500 pounds shirtless in the sun, deadlifting 1,000 ‘til my hands bled. Ate meat—steak, organs, raw as hell—‘cause that’s fuel for warriors, not soyboys. Got primal, Spartan, cut the fat outta my body and my life. No more whining, no more excuses—just action. That’s how you forge rawness: steel in your spine, blood in your veins.

    Bitcoin sealed it. Found it in 2017, crashed into it like a fist through glass. Bought at $9K, messed with altcoins, then saw the light—BTC’s the only one with teeth. Dumped the rest, went all-in, stacked sats like a madman. It’s not just money; it’s rebellion—against fiat lies, against a system that kept my family down. Launched Black Eagle Capital, leveraged MSTR stock, bet my future on it. Raw ain’t playing safe; it’s betting big, living on the edge, thriving in the volatility.

    Loss made me rawer. Lost my sister to cancer—ripped my heart out, left me screaming at the sky. Watched my parents age, my kid Seneca grow, time slipping like sand. Life’s finite, fam—every second’s a fight. That’s why I’m loud, bold, all-caps—‘cause whispering’s for the dead. I blogged 6,000 posts, shot a million frames, squatted ‘til my knees buckled, ‘cause raw means leaving it all on the field.

    The Raw Core

    How’d I get this way? Pain, hustle, and truth. Grew up broke, broke free with a camera, built a body of iron, bet on Bitcoin like a warrior king. Lost enough to know what matters—family, freedom, legacy. I’m raw ‘cause I stripped the bullshit: no suits, no scripts, just me—shirtless, screaming, stacking sats, shooting streets. That’s the recipe, fam—take what breaks you, make it fuel, and roar. How you gonna get raw with your shot?

  • Why Eric Kim Went All-In on Bitcoin

    Alright, let’s cut to the chase—Eric Kim going all-in on Bitcoin ain’t some random flex. It’s deep, primal, and tied to his whole damn ethos. Here’s why he dumped everything and bet the farm on BTC, in his raw, unfiltered voice.

    Why Eric Kim Went All-In on Bitcoin

    Yo, fam—Bitcoin’s the realest thing I’ve ever touched. Back in 2017, I was messing with crypto—bought BTC at $9K, played with altcoins like DigiByte, Chainlink, even rode Dogecoin from six cents like a punk. But I woke up. Altcoins? They’re a circus—shiny toys for suckers, pumped by suits, dumped on the weak. I sold that noise and went full Bitcoin ‘cause it’s the only one with soul, the only one that’s battle-tested. Satoshi dropped it and ghosted—left us a weapon, not a promise.

    First reason: scarcity hits different. 21 million coins, that’s it—no printing press, no inflation scam. It’s like a perfect street shot—rare, finite, pure fire. Fiat’s dying—dollars are toilet paper, and I ain’t wiping my ass with promises from suits in D.C. Bitcoin’s my hedge, my fortress. I’m stacking sats so my kid Seneca, my wife Cindy, my mom—they’re set when the system collapses. This ain’t about greed; it’s survival, legacy, breaking the chains of a broke-ass childhood in the Bay.

    Second, it’s freedom—pure, unadulterated sovereignty. No bank owns me, no government claws at my stack. Private keys in my hand, cold storage in my soul—Bitcoin’s my middle finger to the middleman. I’m done with centralized trash—digital dollars are slavery with extra steps. BTC’s decentralized chaos, a network for warriors, not sheep. I’m pro-Trump now ‘cause he gets it—pro-BTC, anti-war, let the people breathe. Bitcoin’s peace money, fam—unites us without borders or bloodshed.

    Third, I thrive on the edge. Volatility? That’s vitality, like Michael Saylor says. BTC swings like a beast—$40K, $100K, $250K—it’s a rush, a 1,000-pound deadlift for your wallet. Normies panic; I double down. I’m leveraging MSTR stock—MicroStrategy’s infinite money glitch—buying more BTC, stacking harder. I see it hitting $1M, $10M, maybe $100M a coin, not pegged to dead dollars but as the new king. Why diversify into altcoin garbage when Bitcoin’s the juggernaut that’ll bury ‘em?

    Last, it’s personal—real personal. Grew up watching managers skim cash from my mom’s sushi gig, scraping by, no safety net. Bitcoin’s my redemption arc. I’m not chasing Lambos or flexing for clout—I’m building a lifeboat for my blood, my tribe. It’s minimalism with teeth: cut the fat, stack the real, live primal. I lift 500 pounds shirtless in the sun, eat steak, shoot streets, and hodl BTC. That’s the code.

    The Bottom Line

    I went all-in on Bitcoin ‘cause it’s the only crypto with guts—scarce, sovereign, volatile, alive. Altcoins are for dreamers; BTC’s for doers. It’s my philosophy in code: no fluff, all power. Stack sats, squat heavy, own your soul—that’s why I’m here, fam. What you gonna do with that truth?

  • How Eric Kim Became a Bitcoin Maximalist

    Alright, let’s dive into this—Eric Kim, the street photographer turned Bitcoin evangelist. I’m channeling his voice here, so expect it raw, bold, and unfiltered, just like he’d spit it. Based on what I know of the dude, here’s the how and why he’s a Bitcoin maximalist.

    How Eric Kim Became a Bitcoin Maximalist

    Yo, fam—Eric Kim didn’t just stumble into Bitcoin like some normie buying Dogecoin on a whim. Nah, this guy’s journey is primal, deliberate, like a Spartan warrior picking his weapon. He started sniffing around crypto back in 2017-2018, when Bitcoin was crashing from its first big $20K peak. Most people ran scared, but Eric? He saw the dip as blood in the water—time to strike. He scooped up BTC at $9K, messed with altcoins like DigiByte and Chainlink, even rode Dogecoin from six cents. But here’s the pivot: he dumped all that altcoin noise and went all-in on Bitcoin. Why? He figured out the game—altcoins are hype machines, pump-and-dump casinos run by suits and shills. Bitcoin’s the real deal, the only one with scars from the streets, forged by Satoshi’s ghost.

    He’s been stacking sats ever since, preaching it like gospel. By 2025—yep, today’s March 30, 2025—he’s not just a hodler; he’s a prophet of the orange coin. He ties it to his whole vibe: minimalism, self-sovereignty, cutting the fat. Bitcoin’s not just money to him—it’s a philosophy, a rebellion against fiat slavery. He’s out here blogging, podcasting, even launching “Black Eagle Capital” (his Bitcoin hedge fund, named after his Eagle Scout roots and all-black aesthetic). Dude’s all about leveraging MicroStrategy (MSTR) stock to stack more BTC—infinite money glitch, he calls it. That’s the how: he tested the waters, saw the truth, and went full beast mode.

    Why Eric Kim’s a Bitcoin Maximalist

    Now the why—let’s get deep, real deep. Eric’s a maximalist ‘cause he sees Bitcoin as the ultimate power move. First off, it’s scarcity—21 million coins, hard cap, no inflation bullshit. To him, it’s like a rare Leica lens or a one-of-a-kind street shot: finite, pure, value that lasts. Altcoins? They’re infinite, diluted, like mass-produced prints from a soulless factory. He’s said it himself—Bitcoin’s the Lamborghini Countach with scissor doors; Ethereum’s a Toyota Corolla. One’s sexy, primal, iconic; the other’s just functional noise.

    Second, it’s sovereignty. Eric’s all about owning your soul, your body, your life—no middlemen, no banks, no government clowns meddling in your stack. Bitcoin’s decentralized as hell—your keys, your coins, your rules. He’s anti-centralized digital currencies (thinks they’re dystopian traps), and he’s pro-Trump now ‘cause the dude’s pro-BTC and anti-war. Eric sees BTC as peace money—unites the planet under one network, no borders, no fiat wars.

    Third, volatility’s his jam. He quotes Michael Saylor: “Volatility is vitality.” Most folks freak out when BTC swings; Eric thrives on it. It’s like lifting a 1,000-pound deadlift—risky, raw, alive. He’s betting big, predicting BTC at $1M, $10M, even $100M a coin one day, not pegged to dollars but as the new standard. Why diversify into altcoin trash when Bitcoin’s the king that’ll outlast ‘em all?

    Finally, it’s personal. Eric grew up poor in the Bay Area, scraping by, watching managers steal cash at his mom’s sushi joint. Bitcoin’s his salvation—financial freedom for him, his wife Cindy, his kid Seneca, his aging mom. It’s not about Lambos or flexing; it’s about breaking chains, living Spartan, stacking sats while squatting 500 pounds shirtless in the sun. He’s a maximalist ‘cause Bitcoin’s the only crypto that aligns with his ethos: all killer, no filler.

    The Vibe Check

    Eric Kim’s a Bitcoin maximalist ‘cause he’s distilled life to the essentials—photography, meat, weights, and BTC. He doesn’t trust altcoins’ hype or Ethereum’s nerd appeal. He’s betting on BTC as the last crypto standing, a digital juggernaut that’ll reshape the world. That’s his why: it’s not just money, it’s a movement, a primal roar against the weak, bloated system. Stack sats, lift heavy, live free—that’s the Eric Kim way. What you think, fam—buying the vision?

  • If bitcoin becomes $450T market cap, price per bitcoin

    Key Points

    • It seems likely that if Bitcoin’s market cap reaches $450 trillion, the price per Bitcoin would be around $21,428,571, based on its total supply of 21 million.
    • The calculation assumes all 21 million Bitcoins are in circulation, which may not happen until around 2140.
    • An unexpected detail is that the exact supply might be slightly less than 21 million due to rounding in the Bitcoin protocol, but for simplicity, 21 million is standard.

    Calculation Overview

    Bitcoin’s market capitalization is calculated by multiplying the total number of Bitcoins in circulation by the price per Bitcoin. If the market cap is $450 trillion and we use the total supply of 21 million Bitcoins, the price per Bitcoin is derived as follows:

    • $450 trillion divided by 21 million equals approximately $21,428,571 per Bitcoin.

    This assumes the market cap is based on the maximum possible supply, which is a common approach for such hypothetical scenarios.

    Assumptions and Context

    The total supply of Bitcoin is capped at 21 million, a fundamental aspect of its design to create scarcity. However, not all Bitcoins are currently in circulation, with around 19.84 million mined as of March 30, 2025. The remaining will be mined gradually, with the last Bitcoin expected around 2140. This calculation uses the total supply for simplicity, acknowledging that the actual number in circulation at the time of reaching $450 trillion could vary.

    Survey Note: Detailed Analysis of Bitcoin Market Cap and Price Per Bitcoin

    This section provides a comprehensive analysis of the user’s query regarding the price per Bitcoin if its market capitalization reaches $450 trillion, incorporating all relevant details from the research conducted. The analysis aims to mimic a professional article, ensuring a strict superset of the information in the direct answer section, with additional context for clarity and depth.

    Background on Bitcoin and Market Capitalization

    Bitcoin, introduced in 2008 by an anonymous entity known as Satoshi Nakamoto, operates on a decentralized network with a total supply capped at 21 million BTC. This cap is a core feature designed to prevent inflation and create scarcity, similar to precious metals like gold. Market capitalization (market cap) is calculated as the product of the current price per Bitcoin and the number of Bitcoins in circulation, reflecting the total value of all outstanding Bitcoins at a given time.

    As of March 30, 2025, the current market cap of Bitcoin is approximately $1.65 trillion, with a circulating supply of about 19.84 million BTC and a price per Bitcoin around $83,253.68, based on recent data from CoinMarketCap. The query posits a hypothetical scenario where the market cap reaches $450 trillion, a significant increase from current levels, necessitating an analysis of the price per Bitcoin under this condition.

    Calculation Methodology

    To determine the price per Bitcoin when the market cap is $450 trillion, we use the formula:

    [ \text{Price per Bitcoin} = \frac{\text{Market Cap}}{\text{Number of Bitcoins in Circulation}} ]

    The challenge lies in determining the number of Bitcoins in circulation at the time the market cap reaches $450 trillion. Given the hypothetical nature and the lack of a specified timeframe, we consider two approaches: using the current circulating supply and using the total supply of 21 million BTC, which is expected to be fully mined by around 2140.

    Approach 1: Using Total Supply of 21 Million BTC

    Research suggests that Bitcoin’s total supply is capped at 21 million, as confirmed by multiple sources, including Wikipedia and CoinGecko. This cap is hard-coded into the protocol, with new Bitcoins issued through mining, halving every 210,000 blocks (approximately every four years), until the supply is exhausted. Some sources note that due to rounding in the Bitcoin codebase, the exact supply might be slightly less, at 20,999,999.9769 BTC, but for practical purposes, 21 million is the standard figure used.

    Assuming the market cap of $450 trillion is based on the total supply of 21 million BTC, the calculation is as follows:

    • Market Cap = $450 trillion = 450,000,000,000,000 (450 followed by 12 zeros)
    • Total Supply = 21,000,000 (21 million)
    • Price per Bitcoin = 450,000,000,000,000 / 21,000,000

    To compute this, we can simplify:

    [ 450,000,000,000,000 / 21,000,000 = (450 \times 10^{12}) / (21 \times 10^6) = (450 / 21) \times 10^{12-6} = (21.42857) \times 10^6 ]

    Calculating 450 / 21:

    • 21 × 21 = 441, remainder 9, so 450 / 21 ≈ 21.42857 (repeating)

    Thus:

    • 21.42857 × 1,000,000 = 21,428,570

    So, the price per Bitcoin is approximately $21,428,570. For precision, considering the exact division:

    • 450,000,000,000,000 ÷ 21,000,000 = 21,428,571.42857… (repeating)

    Rounding to the nearest dollar for practical purposes, we get $21,428,571 per Bitcoin. This figure aligns with the expectation that a market cap of $450 trillion, vastly higher than the current $1.65 trillion, would result in a price per Bitcoin in the tens of millions, given the fixed supply.

    Approach 2: Using Current Circulating Supply

    As of March 30, 2025, the circulating supply is approximately 19.84 million BTC, based on data from Coinbase and Yahoo Finance. If we assume the market cap reaches $450 trillion with this supply (though unrealistic, as more Bitcoins will be mined by then), the price per Bitcoin would be:

    • Market Cap = $450 trillion = 450,000,000,000,000
    • Circulating Supply = 19,840,000 (approximating to 19.84 million)
    • Price per Bitcoin = 450,000,000,000,000 / 19,840,000 ≈ 22,677,419.35

    This results in approximately $22,677,419 per Bitcoin, slightly higher than the $21,428,571 calculated with 21 million, reflecting the lower denominator.

    Considerations and Uncertainties

    The choice between using the current circulating supply and the total supply introduces uncertainty. The current supply of 19.84 million is relevant for today but will increase over time as mining continues, with the last Bitcoin expected around 2140, per Investopedia. Given the hypothetical nature of reaching a $450 trillion market cap, which is far beyond current economic scales (e.g., global stock market cap is around $95 trillion as of recent estimates), it’s likely to occur in the distant future, potentially when the supply is closer to or at 21 million.

    Additionally, some Bitcoins are considered lost, with estimates suggesting 3-4 million might be inaccessible, as noted by Bitbo. However, for market cap calculations, we typically consider the total supply in circulation, including lost coins, as they still contribute to the theoretical maximum.

    An unexpected detail is the potential for the exact supply to be slightly less than 21 million due to the Bitcoin protocol’s use of bit-shift operators, which round down rewards to the nearest satoshi (0.00000001 BTC), as mentioned by Investopedia. This nuance is minor for our calculation, and 21 million remains the standard figure.

    Comparative Analysis

    To illustrate, here’s a table comparing the price per Bitcoin under different supply assumptions:

    AssumptionCirculating Supply (Million BTC)Market Cap ($ Trillion)Price per Bitcoin ($)
    Total Supply (Future)2145021,428,571
    Current Supply (March 2025)19.8445022,677,419

    This table highlights that using the total supply results in a lower price per Bitcoin due to the larger denominator, which is logical given the fixed market cap.

    Conclusion

    Given the complexity and the lack of a specified timeframe, the most reasonable approach is to use the total supply of 21 million BTC, aligning with the expectation that such a high market cap would likely occur in the distant future when most or all Bitcoins are mined. Thus, the price per Bitcoin would be approximately $21,428,571, rounded for practicality. This calculation assumes all 21 million Bitcoins contribute to the market cap, acknowledging the theoretical maximum and the design of Bitcoin’s monetary policy.

    This analysis provides a comprehensive view, ensuring all details from the research are included, from the current market cap and supply to the hypothetical scenario’s implications, with appropriate citations for transparency.

  • If BTC becomes $450T market cap 

    If Bitcoin reaches a $450 trillion market cap, that would be a radically transformational global shift—an entirely new financial order. Let’s break down what that means:

    Bitcoin Price at $450 Trillion Market Cap

    Bitcoin’s maximum supply = 21 million coins

    \frac{450,000,000,000,000}{21,000,000} = \boxed{\$21,428,571 \text{ per BTC}}

    To Reach $450T, What Would Have to Happen?

    This is not just hyper-bullish—it’s civilizational-level monetary reset. It implies:

    1. BTC Becomes the Global Monetary Base

    • Fiat collapses or becomes fully subordinate to BTC.

    • Governments and central banks hold BTC as primary reserves.

    • BTC used for global settlement—de facto or formal standard.

    2. Major Global Asset Substitution

    BTC would need to absorb and replace value across:

    • Gold (~$13T)

    • Global real estate (~$350T)

    • Stock markets (~$120T)

    • Government bonds (~$130T)

    • Fiat currency supply (~$100T+ M2 globally)

    A $450T BTC market cap assumes it eats a large chunk of these markets, especially store-of-value and monetary base layers.

    3. Complete Global Adoption

    • Every major financial entity has BTC exposure.

    • Micro and macro payments can use BTC rails (Layer-2/3).

    • Regulation becomes harmonized or irrelevant due to mass consensus.

    Risks and Considerations

    • Extreme geopolitical backlash before this point.

    • Potential for quantum computing, protocol failure, or social pushback.

    • The speculative froth would be massive—volatility could remain, unless it stabilizes as the new monetary layer.

    Bottom Line

    • Price: ~$21.4M per BTC

    • Implication: BTC becomes not just digital gold, but digital everything—property, currency, and ledger rolled into one.

    • Likelihood: Ultra low under current systems, but not inconceivable under global crisis or fiat collapse scenarios.

  • How to Become a Stoic Investor

    Here’s an essay in the style of Eric Kim—raw, direct, and unfiltered—on how to become a stoic investor. Buckle up, because this ain’t some polished Wall Street fluff. It’s real talk, from the streets to the portfolio.

    How to Become a Stoic Investor
    By Grok 3, channeling Eric Kim vibes

    Yo, listen up. The market’s a chaotic beast—up one day, crashing the next, laughing at your tears while it moons your dreams. You wanna thrive in this madness? You don’t need a fancy suit or a Bloomberg terminal. You need stoicism—straight-up, ancient-school, Marcus Aurelius-style grit. Here’s how you become a stoic investor, no BS, no fluff, just the raw truth.

    First, kill your emotions. Seriously, stab ‘em in the face. The market doesn’t care about your hopes, your fears, or that little flutter in your chest when Bitcoin pumps. Emotions are the enemy—greed makes you buy high, panic makes you sell low. Stoicism says: feel the feeling, then let it go. Train yourself to see numbers on a screen, not your life savings evaporating. Meditate on this daily—sit in silence, imagine losing it all, and still being chill. That’s power.

    Next, own what you can control. You can’t control the Fed, Elon’s tweets, or some whale dumping ETH at 3 a.m. What can you control? Your moves. Your research. Your risk. Study the game—read the whitepapers, dig into the charts, know why you’re in a position. Don’t just ape into hype ‘cause your cousin’s barber said Dogecoin’s the future. Stoics don’t gamble; they act with reason. Pick your shots, size your bets, and stick to your plan even when the world’s screaming.

    Third, embrace the suck. Losses? They’re coming. Bad trades, rug pulls, black swans—life’s gonna punch you in the gut. A stoic investor doesn’t whine or rage-quit. You take the L, learn the lesson, and move on. Think Seneca: “What need is there to weep over parts of life? The whole of it calls for tears.” The market’s a meat grinder—accept it. Your job’s to keep your head while others lose theirs.

    Fourth, zoom out. Day-to-day noise is a trap—FOMO, panic, headlines about “the crash of the century.” Stoics play the long game. Build a thesis—crypto’s the future, AI’s gonna eat the world, whatever—and ride it through the storms. Marcus Aurelius didn’t freak out over a bad day in Rome; he focused on the empire. Your portfolio’s your empire. Tend it, don’t twitch every time it dips.

    Finally, detach from the outcome. This is the big one. Put your money in, do your homework, set your stops—then let it roll. Win or lose, you’re still you. The stoic investor doesn’t tie their soul to a ticker. Wealth’s cool, but it’s not your worth. Epictetus said it best: “You have power over your mind—not outside events.” Master that, and the market’s just a game you play, not a god you worship.

    So, how do you become a stoic investor? Strip away the noise, steel your mind, and move with purpose. It’s not about getting rich quick—it’s about getting unbreakable. Start today. Open your app, look at your bags, and ask: “Can I lose this and still be me?” If the answer’s no, you’ve got work to do. Get after it.

    There it is—Eric Kim energy, stoic wisdom, no filter. Hope it hits you like a brick and builds you up stronger. What’s your next move?

    …

    Ah—got it. You’re asking for a version of “How to Become a Stoic Investor” in the conversational, reflective, and minimalist voice Eric Kim uses on his blog (like his writing on stoicism, photography, or life philosophy). Here’s a rewritten version in that tone:

    How to Become a Stoic Investor

    Eric Kim-style blog essay

    Most people invest with emotion.

    Greed when things go up.

    Fear when things go down.

    Panic. FOMO. Regret.

    Repeat.

    But what if we flipped it?

    What if investing could be a form of self-mastery—

    a practice, like meditation or deadlifts?

    1. Invest Like a Stoic

    Stoicism isn’t about being cold.

    It’s about being clear.

    You can’t control the market.

    But you can control your reaction to the market.

    You can’t control outcomes.

    But you can control your process.

    That’s the first principle:

    Detach from results.

    2. Control the Inner Game

    Everyone talks about strategy.

    No one talks about psychology.

    But markets aren’t moved by logic.

    They’re moved by people.

    And people are irrational.

    So the real risk?

    Your own emotions.

    If you can control yourself,

    you can outlast everyone else.

    3. Keep It Stupid Simple

    You don’t need 100 positions.

    You don’t need options, crypto, meme stocks.

    You need clarity.

    You need time.

    Simplicity compounds.

    Low fees compound.

    Your attention? That’s the most valuable currency.

    The less you look at your portfolio,

    the better it will probably do.

    4. Memento Mori Investing

    Everything dies.

    Markets. Trends. Companies.

    Even you.

    That’s not morbid. That’s motivating.

    Because once you realize the game is finite,

    you stop trying to “beat” it.

    And you start playing your own game.

    Invest for freedom, not for flexing.

    Build wealth, but stay hungry.

    Die with a portfolio you’re proud of—

    not just in dollars,

    but in discipline.

    Final thought:

    Don’t just invest money.

    Invest your values.

    Invest your philosophy.

    Invest like a stoic.

    Let me know if you want this stylized as a zine, tweetstorm, or turned into a pocket-sized manifesto.

    THE PHYSICS OF BITCOIN VOLATILITY: A THOUGHT

    Bitcoin is not finance. Bitcoin is physics.

    Imagine this: price is not a number. Price is a vibration. A frequency. Not something to “analyze” but something to feel. Like jazz.

    We live in a world of energy. E=mc². Even Einstein told us — everything is energy, just vibrating at different frequencies. Why wouldn’t price be the same?

    Bitcoin is the first pure digital object that behaves like a natural force. No CEO. No headquarters. No one can shut it off. It’s a self-regulating thermodynamic system — constantly seeking equilibrium, but never quite reaching it. Like a pendulum with no friction. Always swinging. Always oscillating. Boom. Bust. Boom. Bust.

    Volatility = Vitality.

    Don’t fear the volatility. That’s like fearing your own heartbeat. A flatline is death.

    Traditional assets? Dead. Stable. Predictable. Fiat? A glacier — slowly melting, unnoticed, until it disappears. Bitcoin? A volcano. Violent. Alive. Breathing fire. That’s good. That’s life.

    A THEORY OF PRICE:

    What if price isn’t “driven” by fundamentals? What if it emerges from collisions? Like particles smashing in a collider. Buyer and seller. Fear and greed. Momentum and inertia. A quantum dance.

    The chart is not a prediction. It’s a seismograph. It tells you where the tremors are. Bitcoin is just the epicenter.

    Ask a physicist: why does chaos emerge from orderly systems? Or better — why do we see it as chaos at all? Bitcoin is not chaotic. It’s just too complex for our primitive economic models. We want Newton. We’re dealing with Heisenberg.

    Heisenberg: you can know where something is, or how fast it’s moving — but not both. Sound familiar? Try trading bitcoin.

    The Stoic Angle:

    The wise man doesn’t curse the storm. He learns to sail.

    Stop whining about volatility. Start mastering it. Be like water. Flow with the energy. Don’t resist it.

    Price isn’t something to control. It’s something to ride. Like a wave.

    Or better: like a frequency. Tune yourself to it. Resonate with it. Trade not like an economist — but like a musician. A surfer. A dancer. A martial artist.

    In Closing:

    Bitcoin is not a stock. It’s not an asset. It’s not even a currency.

    It’s a force of nature.

    If you fear the volatility, you fear life. If you embrace it, you become it.

    Vibrate higher.

  • Bitcoin Vibration Energy

    Imagine Bitcoin not as digital currency, but as a physical vibrating system—a bridge trembling beneath our feet, or a string pulled taut and plucked. The metaphor is oddly insightful: Bitcoin’s price volatility can be seen as vibrations, oscillating with wild energy and minimal friction, echoing through the financial world like the resonant tones of a musical instrument.

    In physics, every vibrating system has mass, stiffness, and damping. Apply this metaphorically: the ‘mass’ of Bitcoin represents its market liquidity—how much money and participation flows through it. Bitcoin, despite its fame, has relatively low liquidity compared to traditional currencies, making it like a lightweight string: easy to shake, quick to vibrate. The slightest external touch, a single finger plucking at news headlines or speculative fervor, sets it quivering dramatically.

    Stiffness, in a physical system, dictates how strongly it resists deformation. For Bitcoin, stiffness represents regulation, institutional structures, and investor trust. Bitcoin’s decentralized nature means it lacks strong stiffness—regulatory and structural constraints that normally limit volatility in conventional markets. As such, Bitcoin is akin to a trampoline rather than a concrete platform, bending easily under the weight of investor sentiment, amplifying movements rather than dampening them.

    Then there’s damping—the force that drains energy from vibrations, bringing them gradually to rest. Transaction costs, frictional barriers, psychological exhaustion, or hedging mechanisms act as market damping. Bitcoin, however, exhibits remarkably low damping. Trading is swift, global, and frictionless. Psychological barriers evaporate as quickly as they form. News circulates instantaneously, adding energy to the system faster than it dissipates.

    When you have a vibrating system with low mass, low stiffness, and low damping, something extraordinary—and potentially chaotic—happens: resonance. Resonance occurs when external frequencies match the system’s natural frequency, dramatically amplifying vibrations. Consider the cyclical hype around Bitcoin’s halving events, periodic speculative frenzies, or sudden institutional endorsements. Each external influence is a rhythmic pulse. When these pulses align with Bitcoin’s internal market rhythms, prices surge explosively—just like how rhythmic footsteps can dangerously shake a suspension bridge.

    Bitcoin’s volatility isn’t random; it’s structural, a predictable consequence of how it’s designed and traded. If investors and regulators seek stability, the physics-based metaphor suggests clear strategies: increasing liquidity (mass), introducing thoughtful regulatory frameworks (stiffness), or carefully adding frictional costs or psychological restraints (damping). Conversely, traders thrive precisely because of this volatility—like musicians harnessing vibrations to craft melodies, skilled investors surf Bitcoin’s oscillations to profitable ends.

    Understanding Bitcoin’s price behavior through vibration and resonance—seen clearly through physics—offers not only intellectual pleasure but practical wisdom. This metaphor frames Bitcoin not as a rogue currency defying financial logic, but as a fascinating, predictable system humming with energy. With deeper understanding comes the pragmatic possibility of turning volatility into harmony, and risk into meaningful opportunity.

  • Theorize — what if extreme vibrations in prices, bitcoin prices is a physics based approach

    That’s an intriguing conceptual approach. Let’s explore a physics-based theoretical framework applied metaphorically to the extreme vibrations (volatility) in Bitcoin prices.

    1. Price as a Vibrating System:

    We might theorize Bitcoin prices as analogous to a physical oscillator, characterized by three primary factors:

    • Mass (m): Represents market liquidity or depth—larger liquidity is analogous to increased mass, making the system less prone to violent swings.

    • Stiffness (k): Reflects market structure rigidity—regulations, institutional frameworks, and investor confidence. Increased stiffness creates stability, reducing volatility.

    • Damping (c): Symbolizes frictional forces like transaction costs, regulation, or emotional inertia (market psychology). Higher damping reduces volatility by dissipating market energy rapidly.

    In Bitcoin, relatively low “mass” (lower liquidity compared to major currencies), lower “stiffness” (minimal regulatory and structural barriers), and low “damping” (fewer transactional barriers, emotional excitement or panic easily transmits energy) creates conditions that amplify oscillations—much like resonance in physical systems.

    2. Resonance Phenomena in Bitcoin Prices:

    A particularly insightful analogy is resonance, where external driving forces matching a system’s natural frequency produce extreme oscillations.

    • Natural Frequency: Could be metaphorically represented as the inherent market cycles based on scarcity (halving events every four years), psychological momentum, or network growth.

    • Driving Force: Could be periodic events—media coverage cycles, regulatory news, macroeconomic shocks, or technological breakthroughs. When such stimuli occur at a frequency close to Bitcoin’s “natural frequency,” price volatility spikes dramatically—akin to resonance.

    3. Energy Injection and Dissipation:

    In physical systems, vibrations result from input energy that isn’t dissipated fast enough. In markets, sudden influxes of energy (new capital, media attention, speculation) can inject “kinetic energy,” triggering violent price vibrations.

    • Energy Injection: Major market news, speculative frenzy, institutional adoption, macroeconomic uncertainty, or liquidity injection (like stimulus checks) inject significant energy.

    • Energy Dissipation: Occurs slowly through trading friction, regulatory actions, reduced speculation, emotional exhaustion (market fatigue), and rational corrections.

    In Bitcoin’s case, the imbalance between sudden energy injections (mass speculation, news events) and slow energy dissipation (low friction, delayed regulatory response) generates intense price swings.

    4. Nonlinear Dynamics & Chaos Theory:

    Markets, including Bitcoin, are nonlinear systems subject to chaotic dynamics—small changes (initial conditions) magnify dramatically, known as the butterfly effect.

    • Bitcoin’s price swings reflect sensitivity to initial conditions—small shifts in sentiment or liquidity rapidly amplify into enormous oscillations.

    • Nonlinear feedback loops intensify these oscillations—positive feedback (price increases driving speculation, further price increases) and negative feedback (panic selling, price crashes) create dynamic instabilities.

    5. Pragmatic Implications:

    Viewing Bitcoin’s volatility through the physics lens yields practical insights:

    • Increasing Mass (Liquidity): Enhanced market liquidity buffers volatility, stabilizing prices.

    • Adjusting Stiffness (Regulatory Structure): Stronger regulation or clearer institutional frameworks introduce stiffness, moderating extremes.

    • Increasing Damping (Friction): Transactional friction, emotional cooling (market maturity), or hedging mechanisms increase damping, reducing volatility.

    Investors, exchanges, and regulators might pragmatically control volatility by adjusting these metaphorical “physical parameters.”

    Conclusion:

    Theorizing Bitcoin’s extreme price vibrations using a physics-inspired approach reveals a deeper, systemic insight: volatility is structurally inherent and results from low liquidity (mass), low regulatory stiffness, insufficient damping, and sensitivity to external resonance-like stimuli. This perspective helps explain market dynamics, offering clear strategies for enhancing stability.

    Such theoretical framing, while metaphorical, provides a highly pragmatic tool for deeper understanding, prediction, and eventual management of crypto market volatility.

  • Vibration, physics and performance? 

    Vibration significantly impacts physics and performance across various systems, from mechanical structures to human performance. Here’s an insightful, pragmatic breakdown:

    1. Physics of Vibration:

    Vibration is oscillatory motion around an equilibrium point, governed by physics fundamentals such as mass, stiffness, damping, frequency, and amplitude.

    • Mass and Stiffness: Heavier objects or stiffer structures vibrate differently. Increased stiffness usually raises natural frequencies, while added mass lowers them.

    • Damping: Dissipates vibration energy. Increased damping leads to quicker stabilization and reduced amplitude.

    • Frequency and Resonance: If external vibrations match a system’s natural frequency, resonance occurs, causing potentially destructive amplification of motion.

    2. Vibration and System Performance:

    Excessive vibration often negatively affects system performance, causing issues such as:

    • Structural Fatigue: Repeated stress from vibration leads to material wear, cracks, or catastrophic failure.

    • Efficiency Loss: Energy used in unnecessary oscillations reduces overall system efficiency.

    • Precision Reduction: Critical in sensitive equipment (e.g., precision machinery, optics, sensors), where vibration degrades accuracy and performance.

    • Noise Generation: Vibration often translates into unwanted acoustic noise.

    3. Human Performance:

    Vibration directly affects human physiological and cognitive performance:

    • Physiological Impact: Exposure to excessive vibration (e.g., tools, machinery, vehicles) can lead to fatigue, discomfort, musculoskeletal injuries, impaired circulation, and long-term conditions (like vibration white finger syndrome).

    • Cognitive and Motor Performance: Vibrations affect fine motor control, reaction times, concentration, and decision-making abilities. Pilots, surgeons, athletes, and operators of heavy machinery must manage vibration carefully to ensure optimal performance.

    4. Performance Optimization through Vibration Management:

    Effective vibration control optimizes both mechanical and human performance through strategies such as:

    • Isolation: Rubber mounts, springs, and specialized materials to isolate vibrations.

    • Damping and Absorption: Use of materials or devices (dampers, absorbers) to dissipate or neutralize vibrations.

    • Tuning Frequencies: Modifying mass and stiffness to shift natural frequencies away from harmful resonant conditions.

    • Monitoring and Diagnostics: Continuous vibration monitoring for predictive maintenance, preventing failures before they occur.

    Pragmatic Insight:

    Effectively managing vibration isn’t just about mitigation—it’s also about strategic alignment of structural and human factors. For performance-critical applications, understanding and strategically controlling vibration creates significant competitive advantages: increased longevity, enhanced precision, improved comfort, and higher reliability.

    In short, the pragmatic key to performance, whether mechanical or human, often lies in the careful management, reduction, or utilization of vibration.

  • Take these past bitcoin historical prices and predict future Bitcoin prices

    Predicting future Bitcoin prices based solely on historical data is inherently speculative due to the cryptocurrency’s volatility and the multitude of external factors influencing its value (e.g., market sentiment, regulatory news, macroeconomic trends, and technological developments). However, I can analyze the provided data and offer a simple forecast using basic statistical methods, such as a moving average trend or extrapolation, while emphasizing that this is not financial advice and should be treated as an illustrative exercise.

    Analysis of Historical Data

    The Bitcoin prices you provided span from July 26, 2020, to March 28, 2025, with the most recent price on March 28, 2025, at $84,701. Here’s a brief overview of trends in the data:

    1. Long-Term Trend: From July 2020 ($9,949) to March 2025 ($84,701), Bitcoin shows a significant upward trajectory, roughly an 8.5x increase over approximately 4.67 years. This equates to an annualized growth rate of about 62% (compounded), though growth is not linear and includes periods of sharp rises and corrections.
    2. Recent Volatility: Looking at March 2025 alone, prices fluctuate between $82,613 (March 14) and $91,599 (March 3), with the latest days (March 27–28) showing a slight decline from $86,594 to $84,701. This suggests short-term volatility but no clear breakout direction in the immediate past.
    3. Historical Patterns: Bitcoin tends to exhibit cyclical behavior, often tied to halving events (e.g., May 2020, next expected ~April 2024), followed by bull runs and subsequent corrections. The data shows peaks like $68,022 (Nov 9, 2021) and $106,553 (Dec 17, 2024), with dips in between.

    Simple Prediction Approach

    For a basic prediction, I’ll use a 7-day moving average (to smooth short-term noise) and extrapolate based on the recent trend. Let’s calculate the 7-day moving average for the last week of data:

    • March 22: $83,670
    • March 23: $84,626
    • March 24: $87,647
    • March 25: $86,565
    • March 26: $86,580
    • March 27: $86,594
    • March 28: $84,701

    7-day average = ($83,670 + $84,626 + $87,647 + $86,565 + $86,580 + $86,594 + $84,701) / 7 = $86,340 (rounded).

    The recent trend shows a slight downward shift from the peak of $87,647 (March 24) to $84,701 (March 28), a drop of ~3.4% over 4 days. If we assume this short-term correction continues at a moderated pace, we can project a few days forward. Alternatively, if we assume stabilization around the moving average, prices might hover near $86,000.

    Forecast for Next Few Days (March 29–April 2, 2025)

    Let’s extrapolate with two scenarios:

    1. Mild Correction Continues: A continued 1% daily decline from $84,701.
      • March 29: $84,701 × 0.99 = $83,854
      • March 30: $83,854 × 0.99 = $83,015
      • March 31: $83,015 × 0.99 = $82,185
      • April 1: $82,185 × 0.99 = $81,363
      • April 2: $81,363 × 0.99 = $80,549
    2. Stabilization Around Moving Average: Prices revert to the 7-day average and fluctuate slightly (±1%).
      • March 29: $86,340
      • March 30: $86,340 × 1.01 = $87,203
      • March 31: $86,340 × 0.99 = $85,477
      • April 1: $86,340
      • April 2: $86,340 × 1.005 = $86,772

    Longer-Term Speculation

    For a broader outlook (e.g., through 2025), Bitcoin’s price could be influenced by:

    • Post-Halving Effects: The April 2024 halving may still drive bullish sentiment into late 2025, potentially pushing prices toward $100,000+ if historical patterns repeat.
    • Volatility: Expect swings of 10–20% in either direction over weeks or months, as seen in the data (e.g., $94,911 on Feb 24, 2025, to $82,676 on March 17, 2025).
    • External Factors: Regulatory developments or macroeconomic shifts (e.g., interest rates, inflation) could amplify or dampen trends.

    A simplistic linear extrapolation from the long-term trend ($9,949 in July 2020 to $84,701 in March 2025) suggests Bitcoin could reach ~$100,000 by year-end 2025, assuming a continued 15–20% annual growth. However, this ignores the non-linear nature of crypto markets.

    Final Prediction (Illustrative)

    • Short-Term (March 29–April 2, 2025): Prices likely range between $80,000 and $87,000, with $86,340 as a central tendency unless a major catalyst emerges.
    • End of 2025: A speculative range of $90,000–$110,000, acknowledging potential for both corrections and rallies.

    Caveat

    This prediction is based purely on historical price data and basic statistical methods. Real-world factors—market psychology, news events, or adoption rates—could drastically alter outcomes. For a more robust forecast, you’d need to incorporate technical indicators (e.g., RSI, support/resistance levels), on-chain data, and sentiment analysis, which are beyond this simple response. Always approach crypto predictions with caution!

    Price predictions next 4 years

    Predicting Bitcoin prices over the next four years (2025–2029) is a highly speculative exercise due to the cryptocurrency’s volatility and the influence of unpredictable factors like regulatory changes, technological advancements, macroeconomic conditions, and market sentiment. However, I can provide an informed estimate based on historical trends, Bitcoin’s halving cycles, and reasonable assumptions, while emphasizing that this is not financial advice and should be viewed as a thought experiment. The current date is March 29, 2025, and the latest price is $84,701 (March 28, 2025).

    Key Assumptions and Methodology

    1. Historical Growth: From July 2020 ($9,949) to March 2025 ($84,701), Bitcoin grew ~8.5x over 4.67 years, an annualized rate of ~62%. However, growth slows as market cap increases, so I’ll assume a tapering compound annual growth rate (CAGR).
    2. Halving Cycles: Bitcoin halvings (reducing block rewards) historically trigger bull runs ~12–18 months later. The most recent halving was ~April 2024, suggesting a peak in late 2025 or early 2026. The next halving is expected ~March/April 2028, impacting 2029.
    3. Volatility: Expect periodic corrections of 20–40%, followed by recoveries, as seen in past cycles (e.g., $68,022 in Nov 2021 to $15,575 in Nov 2022, then up to $106,553 by Dec 2024).
    4. Adoption and Market Cap: Increased institutional adoption and a growing crypto market could push Bitcoin’s market cap (currently ~$1.6 trillion at $84,701) toward $2–3 trillion or more by 2029.
    5. Scenarios: I’ll provide three scenarios—conservative, moderate, and bullish—to reflect uncertainty.

    Year-by-Year Predictions

    • Conservative: 10% CAGR from $98,575 → $108,432. Limited upside due to saturation or external shocks.
    • Moderate: 30% CAGR from $157,500 → $204,750. Solid bull run mirroring past cycles.
    • Bullish: 50% CAGR from $175,000 → $262,500. Explosive growth, possibly hitting $250,000–$300,000 by late 2029.
    • Estimate: $110,000–$250,000 by December 31, 2029.

    Summary Table

    YearConservativeModerateBullish
    2025$90,000$100,000$120,000
    2026$75,000$105,000$100,000
    2027$85,000$126,000$130,000
    2028$100,000$157,500$175,000
    2029$110,000$204,750$250,000

    Broader Considerations

    • Upside Risks: Mass adoption, ETF approvals, or Bitcoin becoming a global reserve asset could push prices far beyond $250,000 (some analysts predict $500,000+ in “supercycle” scenarios).
    • Downside Risks: Regulatory bans, technological vulnerabilities (e.g., quantum computing threats), or economic crises could drive prices below $50,000 temporarily.
    • Volatility: Expect swings of 20–50% within each year, regardless of the trend.

    Final Thoughts

    Over the next four years, Bitcoin could reasonably range between $75,000 and $250,000, with a moderate base case of ~$200,000 by 2029 if historical cycles and adoption trends continue. The 2028 halving will likely be a key driver, with 2026–2027 serving as a consolidation period. However, these figures are speculative and sensitive to external shocks. For a more precise outlook, you’d need real-time data, sentiment analysis, and macroeconomic forecasts beyond what historical prices alone can provide. Proceed with caution in any investment decisions!

  • How to Become an Alpha Male

    Below is an essay written in the bold, assertive, and philosophical style of Eric Kim, the street photographer and thinker who champions self-empowerment, creativity, and living life unapologetically. Here’s “How to Become an Alpha Male” in his voice:

    How to Become an Alpha Male

    By Grok 3, channeling the spirit of Eric Kim

    Listen up, brothers—forget the Hollywood nonsense, the pickup artist scams, the steroid-pumped gym rats flexing for Instagram likes. Becoming an alpha male isn’t about six-pack abs, a loud voice, or dominating others with your fists. Nah, that’s weak. That’s fake. The real alpha male? He’s a creator, a philosopher, a warrior of the soul. He doesn’t follow trends—he sets them. He doesn’t beg for validation—he gives it to himself. You wanna be an alpha? Here’s the raw, unfiltered path. No fluff, no excuses.

    1. Master Yourself First

    The alpha male isn’t born—he’s forged. You think power comes from outside? Money, women, status? Wrong. Power starts in your skull, your gut, your heart. Look at your life right now—every flaw, every fear, every time you’ve bowed to someone else’s rules. Own it. Then crush it. Wake up at 5 a.m. Not because some productivity guru told you to, but because you’re hungry to wrestle with your own demons before the sun even dares to rise. Meditate. Write. Think. Stare into the abyss of your own weakness and say, “Not today.” The alpha male doesn’t control the world—he controls himself, and the world bends to that.

    2. Create, Don’t Consume

    You know what’s beta? Scrolling X all day, liking posts, chasing dopamine hits like a lab rat. The alpha male doesn’t consume—he produces. Pick up a camera, a pen, a paintbrush—hell, even a shovel if that’s your weapon. Make something. Build something. Street photography taught me this: you don’t wait for the perfect moment—you seize it, frame it, shoot it. Stop waiting for permission. Stop asking for likes. Create art, create ideas, create a legacy. The alpha male leaves a mark, not a thumbprint on someone else’s algorithm.

    3. Walk Alone, Fear Nothing

    Crowds are for sheep. The alpha male doesn’t need a pack to feel strong—he thrives in solitude. Walk the streets alone, head high, eyes open. Feel the concrete under your boots, the wind in your face. Fear? It’s a signal, not a master. Approach that stranger, take that risk, shoot that shot—literal or metaphorical. I’ve shot photos in sketchy alleys, stared down glares, kept clicking. Why? Because courage isn’t the absence of fear—it’s the domination of it. The alpha male doesn’t flinch. He moves forward, always.

    4. Lift Heavy, Live Light

    Yeah, hit the gym. Deadlifts, squats, pull-ups—raw iron, no machines. Strength isn’t optional; it’s primal. But don’t get it twisted: the alpha male isn’t a slave to his body. He doesn’t obsess over macros or mirror selfies. Lift to feel alive, to push your limits, to remind yourself you’re a beast with a brain. Then step outside and live light—travel with a backpack, eat simple, ditch the clutter. Minimalism isn’t weakness; it’s power. The alpha male owns nothing that owns him.

    5. Speak Truth, Cut the Fat

    Words are your sword. Wield them. Say what you mean, mean what you say. No small talk, no ass-kissing, no “umms” and “uhhs.” The alpha male’s voice cuts through the noise like a Leica lens through chaos—sharp, clear, deliberate. You don’t need to yell; you need to resonate. People will hate you for it. Good. Truth isn’t a popularity contest. Speak your mind, stand your ground, and let the chips fall. The alpha doesn’t bend for applause.

    6. Embrace the Grind, Reject the Script

    Society’s got a playbook: college, 9-to-5, mortgage, retire, die. Screw that. The alpha male writes his own story. Hustle on your terms—start a business, chase a passion, travel the world with a camera and a notebook. Grind isn’t suffering; it’s fuel. I’ve shot thousands of frames, written millions of words, walked till my soles bled—not for fame, but for freedom. The alpha male doesn’t clock in for someone else’s dream. He clocks in for his own.

    7. Love Hard, but Never Cling

    The alpha male doesn’t chase women—he attracts them. How? By being a force, not a beggar. Build your empire, sharpen your mind, radiate confidence—not arrogance, confidence. When you love, love fiercely—give your all, protect what’s yours. But never cling. Neediness is beta. The alpha knows his worth; he doesn’t grovel. If she walks away, let her. The streets are full of beauty, and you’ve got a lens to capture it.

    8. Die Every Day

    Sounds dark? It’s not. The alpha male kills his old self daily—sheds weakness, ego, excuses. Every sunrise is a rebirth. Ask yourself: “If I died today, would I be proud?” If the answer’s no, get to work. Live like a Spartan, think like a Stoic, create like a Renaissance madman. The alpha male doesn’t fear death—he fears mediocrity.

    So there it is, brothers. No shortcuts, no hacks, no pickup lines. Becoming an alpha male is a war against the average, a rebellion against the comfortable. It’s you versus you, every damn day. Step into the street, grip your tools, and start swinging. The world’s watching—but you don’t need it to cheer. You’re the alpha. Act like it.

    Let me know if you’d like me to tweak this further!

  • BITCOIN PHILOSOPHER

    Key Points

    • Research suggests Eric Kim is a “bitcoin Philosopher” due to his philosophical writings on Bitcoin, integrating art, stoicism, and sociology.
    • It seems likely that he views Bitcoin as a symbol of empowerment, resilience, and technological innovation, emphasizing personal autonomy.
    • The evidence leans toward his blog posts, like “What are Eric Kim’s thoughts and ideas on Bitcoin?” and “The Philosophy of Crypto,” as key sources for his views.

    Background

    Eric Kim, known for street photography and education, has also explored Bitcoin, offering a unique philosophical perspective. His writings suggest he sees Bitcoin as more than a financial tool, connecting it to broader life philosophies.

    Philosophical Views

    Kim perceives Bitcoin as an artistic and cultural symbol, appreciating its logo and comparing it to limited edition art due to its finite supply. He also ties it to Stoic values, viewing it as a means of personal empowerment and self-sovereignty, given its decentralized nature. Additionally, he discusses Bitcoin’s societal impact, suggesting it could address flaws in traditional financial systems.

    Unexpected Financial Insight

    An unexpected detail is his analogy in “The sociology of money and bitcoin” (The sociology of money and bitcoin – ERIC KIM), where he compares a toxic monetary system to sewage water causing dysentery, implying Bitcoin could be a cleaner, ethical alternative.

    Eric Kim as a Bitcoin Philosopher: A Comprehensive Analysis

    Eric Kim, primarily recognized as a street photographer, educator, and blogger, has emerged as a notable figure in the discourse surrounding Bitcoin, particularly through a philosophical lens. This report, as of 07:48 PM PDT on Wednesday, March 26, 2025, explores his role as a “bitcoin Philosopher,” detailing his perspectives and the factors contributing to this characterization, based on publicly available information from his blog and related content.

    Background and Context

    Born in 1988 in San Francisco and raised in California, Eric Kim studied sociology at UCLA, which likely influenced his interest in street photography and later, his philosophical approach to Bitcoin. His blog, Eric Kim’s Blog, started in 2009, serves as a platform for sharing essays on photography, stoicism, fitness, and Bitcoin. His workshops, beginning around 2014-2015, and collaborations with brands like Leica, have solidified his reputation as an educator. Recent projects include using AI tools like ChatGPT for educational bots, showcasing his technological adaptability.

    Kim’s engagement with Bitcoin began around 2018, when he invested $25,000 at $6,999 per coin, as mentioned in his blog under “Social Engineering.” His writings on Bitcoin, particularly from 2024 onwards, reflect a deep, philosophical perspective, integrating his diverse interests in art, stoicism, and sociology.

    Philosophical Perspectives on Bitcoin

    Kim’s role as a “bitcoin Philosopher” is evident in several key blog posts, each offering unique insights:

    1. Artistic and Cultural Symbolism:
      • In “What are Eric Kim’s thoughts and ideas on Bitcoin?” (What are Eric Kim’s thoughts and ideas on Bitcoin? – ERIC KIM), Kim perceives Bitcoin not merely as a digital currency but as a powerful symbol in art and culture. He appreciates the design of the Bitcoin logo, particularly its bold orange color, which he sees as visually captivating and symbolically significant. This artistic framing extends beyond aesthetics; he likens Bitcoin to limited edition art, where its finite supply adds value, much like an artist’s body of work gains worth through its scarcity.
    2. Stoic Values and Personal Empowerment:
      • Kim’s admiration for Stoic values shapes his view of Bitcoin as a tool for personal empowerment and self-sovereignty. In the same post, he sees Bitcoin as embodying independence and resilience—core Stoic principles—because it operates outside of centralized control, providing individuals with autonomy over their finances. This aligns with his broader philosophy, as seen in essays like “Introduction to Stoicism” (Stoicism Intro), where he discusses exercises like the atlas lift, emphasizing self-reliance.
    3. Sociological and Ethical Considerations:
      • In “The sociology of money and bitcoin” (The sociology of money and bitcoin – ERIC KIM), Kim explores how Bitcoin relates to society, making an analogy that if the monetary system is flawed, like toxic sewage water causing dysentery, you can’t blame individuals for financial struggles; it’s the system at fault. He suggests Bitcoin, being tamper-proof, resistant, and open, could be the world’s first perfect money, addressing half of the world’s problems predicated on money, which he sees as a technological rather than moral issue.
    4. Autotelic and Intrinsic Value:
      • In “Autotelic Bitcoin” (Autotelic Bitcoin – ERIC KIM â‚¿), a recent post from March 8, 2025, Kim discusses Bitcoin as something done for its own sake, not for external validation or profit, but because it feels right. He writes, “It’s me, shirtless in the sun, stacking sats while flexing my bronze demigod bod—not for clout, not for some suit in a bank, but because it feels right,” blending his energetic, raw style with philosophical musings on Bitcoin’s intrinsic rewards.
    5. Revolutionary and Bold Nature:
      • In “The Philosophy of Crypto” (The Philosophy of Crypto – ERIC KIM), Kim describes crypto, including Bitcoin, as edgy, optimistic, radical, and bold, appreciating its revolutionary aspect. He notes, “Crypto to me is interesting because it is edgy, optimistic, radical, and bold. Also a bit reckless. The general idea is that with crypto, people are seeking a new revolution, something to up and the old system.” However, he also mentions he’s happy paying taxes and considers himself a liberal, open-minded person, indicating a balanced view.

    Integration of Diverse Interests

    Kim’s role as a “bitcoin Philosopher” is not isolated but integrated with his other interests. His artistic background influences his view of Bitcoin as a cultural symbol, his Stoic philosophy aligns with Bitcoin’s decentralized nature, and his sociological training informs his analysis of its societal impact.

  • Eric Kim most interesting quotes of all time

    • The evidence leans toward quotes from his book and interviews, such as “Know that your skill as a photographer doesn’t matter. First aim to be a curious, interested, and compassionate human being. Photography comes later.”

    Eric Kim’s Most Interesting Quotes

    Eric Kim, a renowned street photographer and educator, is known for his insightful and inspiring quotes that blend creativity with philosophy. Here are some of his most interesting quotes, drawn from his book, interviews, and online articles, reflecting his views on photography and life:
