Week 85 - Book: Should You Own Bitcoin and our life in Berlin El Salvador:
Need a book that explains Bitcoin in everyday language? Should You Own Bitcoin? does that. Available in PDF and Audio. A great onboarding tool. James on his own this week as Nicki was enjoying the Bay of Islands.

European Union Bans Self Custody
There is a bit of nuance to this, but the direction is clear to me. They want to know and control peoples assets and transactions.
Personally I’m pro people being able to hold private property and transact it privately. I appreciate some people don’t want to allow others to do that.
But to remove privacy freedoms is a slippery slope.
As we often say, learn bitcoin, practice self custody.

El Salvador to Mix in Nuclear Energy
El Salvador has been very bold in diversifying its energy mix. And this is another possible source to add. These projects take a lot of time to plan and deploy.
The future of the world is looking like it will demand a lot more energy for AI, Bitcoin Mining, robots and transportation along with everything to manufacture it.
So having an abundance of energy is going to be an asset to many nations.

Travel Numbers a Sign of Interest
The numbers tell a different story to that of the main stream media. People are coming to verify for themselves. It will be made up of locals, foreigners and business interests.
An amazing place and time to be.
