Bitcoin. Love it or hate it, it's one of the most important assets of our age. Digital gold? A new monetary system? A defense against inflation? All of these and more? The debate rages on.

Hey Everyone!

And, while the stock is still somewhat "expensive", trading at 30x net income, it is beginning to look interesting. Trading at only 19x cash flow,...
You can now purchase shares of Square / Block, the high growth fintech company, for what it was trading at back in fall of 2018.
