Joke: I asked my Bitcoin what it does for exercise. It said: I just sit on the couch, ignore the dips, and let compound scarcity do the heavy lifting. Then I realized… I’ve been training my portfolio wrong. I’ve been panic-selling during bear markets like it’s leg day. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s been doing isometrics in diamond hands mode.

This joke flips the script on how we view volatility. Most people see Bitcoin’s price swings as dangerous, a rollercoaster to bail out of. But the joke reframes inaction as strength. Bitcoin sitting on the couch” isn’t lazy, it’s strategic. Unlike stocks or fiat, Bitcoin’s value grows through scarcity, 21 million cap, time (halvings every 4 years), and adoption (network effect) not daily trading. When you HODL, you’re not doing nothing. You’re letting economic physics work: No inflation, unlike fiat, which loses ~7% per year to money printing. No counterparty risk (your keys, your coins) Exponential growth potential (from adoption curve, not speculation)

The real exercise isn’t trading, it’s resisting emotion. The strongest portfolios aren’t built by reacting… they’re built by not reacting. That’s the mind-shift:

Volatility isn’t the enemy. Time is your asset. Patience is your workout. HODLing is your gains. @k00b @et
