Hello everybody Well what a week it has been.! With the very pro bitcoin Trump voted in, Bitcoin has rocketed to USD $88,596 / NZD $149,000 all time highs. "A Trump U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve ‘Game-Changer’ Is Suddenly Hurtling Toward The Bitcoin Price" "The Bitcoin Act, introduced by U.S. senator Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) this year, calls for the creation of a strategic bitcoin reserve to reduce the U.S.'s spiraling, near-$36 trillion national debt by buying 1 million bitcoin over five years. In a keynote address at a July bitcoin conference in Nashville, Tennessee, Trump promised to make the U.S. the "crypto capital of the planet" and create a bitcoin strategic reserve using the bitcoin that the government holds. "If implemented, the Bitcoin Act could drive considerable institutional and governmental interest in bitcoin, potentially accelerating its growth and pushing its value to new heights." https://lnkd.in/gz_fpkpv As always invest wisely. #vault #bitcoin #fund #capitalgainstaxfree Disclaimer: Bitcoin and units in the Vault International Bitcoin Fund are extremely volatile.

📈 ASIC Sales Opportunities: Insights from Public Bitcoin Miners As of December 31, 2024, public Bitcoin miners reported a combined hash rate of 313.114 EH, making up over 35.26% of the #Bitcoin network’s total hash rate (and likely more when accounting for missing data). This marks a sharp rise from approximately 21% in 2023, and the trend shows no signs of slowing. 🚀 Why should ASIC distributors pay close attention to public miners? ✅ Access to capital through public markets, compared with private miners ✅A constant need to stay competitive to attract and retain investor confidence. The largest (by market cap) 15 U.S.-listed public Bitcoin miners collectively drove massive #ASIC acquisitions in 2024. The table below provides a summary of their purchase records. 📊 Emerging trends in ASIC acquisitions: 1️⃣ Cost-per-terahash efficiency is now a top priority: as demonstrated by companies like Hut 8 and Cipher Mining. 2️⃣ Miners are introducing flexibility into contracts, adding options to purchase more units or upgrade to newer models, adapting to market conditions and performance benchmarks. These strategies not only highlight miners' focus on efficiency but also present opportunities for ASIC distributors/sellers to cater to these growing demands.

What impact does the Instant Asset Write-off scheme have on small businesses? From my perspective this Federal Government initiative been one of the most significant policies over the last few years to stimulate economic growth. While the thresholds have changed a few times (at one point up to $150k), organisations have brought forward their spending to take advantage of these initiatives. At a time when there are economic headwinds and we need to be spending significantly more to decarbonise we need more pro-business policies like the IAWO!

🎧 Latest pod is out. Bayani Mills is the Secretary & Acting CEO at the Australian Bitcoin Industry Body, providing advocacy on behalf of their Bitcoin industry members and advancing the adoption and understanding of Bitcoin in Australia. We take a deep dive into Bayani’s work with the industry body: educating politicians, making submissions on bills before parliament, and trying to carve out a clear space for Bitcoin in the minds of the public and politicians. Not everybody agrees with the idea of engaging the political leviathan, but as Bayani outlines there can be real consequences to inaction and though Bitcoin functions fine regardless, regressive policy can make life hard for everyday Australians to get started with Bitcoin.

You can’t ban Bitcoin, you can only ban yourself from #Bitcoin. Everyone eventually learns that. “Cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin will help drive modernisation of Australia’s financial system, Treasurer Jim Chalmers has declared while revealing the re-election of Donald Trump has already forced a rethink of the emerging sector’s importance” https://lnkd.in/g9JbR6ZW

#Bitcoin #mining is not just about cranking out new coins; it’s about flipping the script on traditional finance. By jumping into mining, individuals and communities can tap directly into the global financial system, smashing old barriers and rewriting the rules. 🚀 This isn't just tech talk; this is about real empowerment. In places where traditional banks haven't stepped up, Bitcoin mining steps in, offering a real shot at financial independence and a seat at the economic table. 💼 As miners, we're not just cogs in a machine; we're the frontline warriors for financial justice. Every hash we solve is more than a number—it's a strike for a future where financial opportunities are not just for the few, but for everyone. Let's hustle together and build a future where #finance is inclusive, transparent, and accessible to everyone. Dive in with us. 🚀
