2021 bitcoin outlook: Hold onto your hats

2021 bitcoin outlook: hold onto your hats

January 07, 2021

2020 has been an unbelievable year. Apart from cementing the importance of relationships and community, bitcoin is the most positive component of a challenging year. 300%+ investment returns are spectacular, but bitcoin is far more important than price appreciation. In this note, I touch on numerous positive aspects of bitcoin, including protecting value in the face of uncertainty, pushing back against govt abuse, investing in sound principles and building community. Plus, I provide an outlook for 2021. I expect the year ahead will be a wilder ride than 2020. I'm preparing myself and trying to remain as level-headed as possible. Hold on to your hats and let's make the most of this incredible journey together. 

2021 Outlook Highlights

  1. Speculation and FOMO as Bitcoin price surpasses $100K

December Bitcoin Webinar

Thanks to everyone who attended. Wonderful to get all the questions and witness the engagement. We'll organise a few more of these through 2021. 

Intro to Sound Money

For those who'd like to share the value of sound money to their friends, family and network, I'm holding a complimentary intro presentation on Thursday 14 January 2021.

This is a high-level presentation to introduce people to these important concepts and to guide them away from FOMO and price speculation. It’s not a detailed introduction to bitcoin. It’s not relevant for experienced bitcoin investors. Participants don’t need to be seasoned investors, but interest in investments and economics is recommended.
