After being in this industry for years now, it really hurts to see people close to me get hurt. Especially in this case, because we've created hundreds of videos throughout our work within the blockchain space on how to avoid this very thing from happening to you. It all it took was one bad click and his account was drained. But this just means we have to try even harder. We know the future of Bitcoin, blockchain and the rest of crypto looks bright, but we also know that the trail leading to that very future is still full of risk with pitfalls, pain and loss. So we've decided to go ahead with the launch for free in an effort to just get the word out and prevent this from happening to more people. Here's what you can expect: - A free copy of our book - The Bitcoin Castle: A Visual Beginner's Guide That Explains Why Bitcoin Has Value. - Every week we'll discuss the current crypto market, give our analysis and determine how you can best position yourself. - We'll post a new course video to the "Beginner Crypto Course" until it's complete. - We'll plan to host a live weekly call on Fridays. - We're working on an additional 2nd course educating on Ethereum, stablecoins and smart contracts. - We're also open to any suggestions from the community and what's important to you so let us know!

Another day, another set of heavy headlines in the news that are tanking the market. Today it's the possibility that the US might strike Iran so of course, it's a red day across basically everything. When things look this bleak, it is completely normal to feel a knot in your stomach. As humans we're hardwired for survival. When we feel a perceive threat or loss, like these massive red candles on the screen, we naturally go into "fight or flight" mode. We get a huge emotional surge and we want to ease that feeling as quick as possible and hit the sell button, accept the loss and seek safety. However, this is actually the most dangerous type of response you can do to your portfolio. You're attempting to "time the market". The hard truth is that trying to time the market is INSANELY difficult even for the top 0.5% of traders and investors with all of the worlds resources at their firms. Plus, you not only have to be right when you SELL... but also be right when you BUY back in. Historically, across almost all asset classes, the best gains are made immediately following it's absolute worst days. So in reality if you're attempting to "sit on the sidelines" and outsmart the news cycle, you risk missing out on the upside recovery that might actually just save you that pain in the first place. So what can you practically do? Return to the foundational narratives that brought you to Bitcoin and blockchain in the first place. When fear is at all time high, ask yourself - Did today's geopolitical news change the fundamental idea behind why I invested? For us we think about: - Bitcoin is still the ultimate form of non inflationary asset. - The network continues, Bitcoin is still functioning as created, it doesn't watch the news. - Adoption is still occurring, builders are still building on the network. - Humans will human - meaning, this has zero to do with Bitcoin itself - The US is $38.7 Trillion in debt and potentially about to start another war - money printing goes "brrrrr"
