I didn’t have much time to go listen to speakers, but I did spend some time on one particular keynote:
21 Ways to Wealth.
This keynote presentation by Michael Saylor will be relevant for the next 1000 years.
He shares the 21 ways to wealth for the 8 billion people on earth. Here's a breakdown of each one:
1) Clarity: Bitcoin is the best capital. Every smart person, nation, and AI will want the best capital. It's worth half of everything.
2) Conviction: Understand that Bitcoin will outperform everything. It is the fastest horse in the race, and there is no second best.
3) Courage: You can't achieve wealth by doing what everyone else is doing. Bitcoin is the asymmetric wealth transfer. Less than 5% of the world holds Bitcoin, far less understand it.
4) Cooperation: When your entire family understands Bitcoin, you are much more powerful. This hints at the level of urgency you should have when faced with this level of scarcity. The next generation has time, and the power of Bitcoin is leveraged with time. Set your kids up for success.
5) Capability: Master AI to be wealthy. In 2025, everyone is a super genius if you are inquisitive
6) Composition: Construct containers to protect your wealth. Insurance, trust account, tax-sheltered account, etc.
7) Citizenship: Build a geographic citizenship portfolio. Live where sovereignty respects your freedom.
8) Civility: Respect the civil laws. Choose your battles. Understand social norms.
9) Corporation: A well-structured corporation is the most powerful wealth creation engine on earth. A company can project out 30 years and then draw the economic energy back to today and invest it now.
10) Focus: Just because you can do a thing doesn't mean you should. Don't confuse ambition with accomplishment.
11) Equity: Issue equity to accumulate more Bitcoin. Share your alpha with investors.
12) Credit: Leverage the credit-based fiat system to accelerate 100 times as much money through proper financing to invest in the world's greatest asset.
13) Compliance: Abide by the rules of the market to access special rights. This can allow you to go faster and further.
14) Capitalization: The velocity of capital compounds your wealth. He who has the most Bitcoin at the end of the game wins.
15) Communication: Nobody will give you money if they don't trust you. Speak with candor and act with transparency. You don't need a complicated strategy. You need a straightforward one.
16) Commitment: Don't get distracted by your own good ideas. Satoshi gave you an idea worth half of everything on earth.
17) Competence: The world wants perfection from you. The market will shift to whoever is laser like focused.
18) Adaptation: Over a long enough time frame, every counterparty will fail, including you. A wise person is prepared to abandon their baggage at several times along the journey of life. Don't be ashamed to adjust your path.
19) Evolution: Your goal is graceful evolution, not radical mutation.
20) Advocacy: Become an evangelist of economic freedom.
21) Generosity: When you are successful, Spread happiness. Share security. Deliver hope.
The presentation is full of timeless wisdom applicable to all investors.
Be on the lookout for an announcement this upcoming week on the Simple Mining Referral Program, you won’t want to miss it.
Had a debate about this question at the conference, curious to see the general consensus:
