⌐◪-◪ → Bitcoin just overtook the British pound as the 6th largest monetary asset in the world.

While Bitcoin still has a long way to go before it overtakes Gold in 1st place (12.4x to be specific) it only has to 4.9x to overtake the US Dollar.

When you consider this through the lens of Bitcoin as a strategy reserve asset — it starts to sound pretty sensible:

1. BTC is a top 10 asset by a wide margin

2. BTC is outperforming all in terms of growth

3. BTC is a fantastic hedge against further inflation

While Bitcoin overtaking gold as the #1 largest monetary asset is certainly a bullish outcome, what’s even MORE bullish in my opinion is the day the chart above is denominated in Bitcoin (not USD).

💬 Which do you think will happen first?

⌐◪-◪ → Last night, Polymarket users bet $4.5M on which words Donald Trump would say during his interview with Elon.

Interview might be the wrong word here, it was more of a 1-way conversation given Trump’s long rambling, but I digress.

What’s amazing is over 50% of those bets were placed live, turning a very boring conversation (in my opinion) into a very riveting one.

The biggest win of the night was probably when Trump said “tampon”, which had sub-20% odds going into the evening. The other two words that hit were “MAGA” and “Illegal Immigrant”.

The biggest loss of the night however was that Trump did not say “Tesla” even though he referenced Elon’s “electric vehicles” many times — it was almost as if Trump was told not to say the word.

Meanwhile, Pump.Fun made $850k in revenue during the interview which puts it in 3rd place of all crypto protocols and chains, just behind Aave and Ethereum.

💬 How’d you do last night on Polymarket?

⌐◪-◪ → El Salvador is doubling down on Bitcoin by dedicating two seaports and a hefty $1.6B to the development of a tax-free crypto haven.

The city was supposed to be funded through El Salvador’s Bitcoin bonds, but due to delays, the $1.6B investment came from Yilport, a Turkish holding company, marking the largest private investment in the country’s history.

One of the seaports handles the country’s exports of coffee, sugar, and salts — and the other abandoned seaport is where Bitcoin City will be built.

I’ve never been to El Salvador, but I’m starting to think I need to plan a short trip just to get a feel for the place — help me get Bukele’s attention. If he bites I’ll geocache some special ordinals in Bitcoin City.

💬 Has anyone been to El Salvador? What’s it like?
