🎓 Bitcoin 101: Bitcoin is Digital Energy
Michael Saylor likens money to energy that can be stored and transferred, noting that all energy systems – including currencies – experience dissipation; the U.S. dollar loses about 15 percent of its “energy” each year, while nations such as Argentina and Turkey see far higher rates.
Bitcoin is a technology that allows you to digitally store energy, across space and time, while rendering your wealth unconfiscatable. Check out Saylor’s thoughts below:
📈 Trending News
1. Crypto and Renewable Energy: Can Mining Go Green?
The Scoop🕵️♂️: While much of today’s mining still runs on fossil‑fuel‑heavy grids, miners are increasingly seeking cleaner electricity. Renewable energy sources, energy flexibility, and utilizing wasted energy are all viable sources of green energy. Newer blockchain projects are already adopting proof‑of‑stake and other low‑energy designs.
Why You Should Care🚨: Mining’s carbon footprint matters because it directly contributes to greenhouse‑gas emissions. Understanding the pathways to greener mining helps investors assess risk, informs policymakers crafting energy‑use regulations, and signals to the broader tech community that sustainability can coexist with decentralized finance.
What does this mean for bitcoin?✨: On one hand, the network’s security hinges on proof‑of‑work, which inherently consumes large amounts of electricity. On the other, the industry’s growing willingness to locate farms near renewable resources – or repurpose stranded energy – could gradually lower Bitcoin’s overall carbon intensity. Consequently, while greener mining practices can mitigate some environmental impact.
2. Who Shook the Jar?
The Scoop🕵️♂️: This past week, conservative influencer and founding on the Conservative youth movement “Turning Point”, Charlie Kirk, was assassinated in front of his wife and children at a university event in Utah. The internet was on fire for several days after, with everyone and their mother seemingly needing to give their opinion on the events. The alleged shooter has been arrested after a previous suspect was released. As is becoming all to common, nothing about this assassination adds up.
Why You Should Care🚨: As the fiat machine implodes, you are witnessing the dying gasps of an evil system that has debased everything it touches. You should absolutely care about poor Charlie’s wife and kids, who now have to grow up without a father. But do your absolute best to stay out of what is clearly a coordinated media deluge pitting right against left. Instead, if you must focus on the story, take a moment to consider who might actually benefit from this chaos? As yourself: who shook the jar?
What does this mean for bitcoin?✨: As we say in bitcoin “Don’t Trust, Verify”. This has never been more true. Read our latest article highlighting what is increasingly looking like yet another well-coordinated psyop. Stay safe, stay sane.
Who Shook the Jar?
The phrase "Who shook the jar?" is a metaphorical question used to prompt reflection on conflict and division in society. It is commonly attributed to Mark Twain, who is said to have stated that if 1…

💼 Women in Bitcoin
Afghan women face severe banking restrictions that limit their financial freedom. Many are now using Bitcoin as a digital solution. Unlike traditional banks, Bitcoin lets them receive money from family abroad, save funds, and make payments without needing permission or ID. This gives them financial independence and privacy in a restrictive system, showing how digital currency can empower people when traditional options are blocked.
