Two industry giants, @tyler and @cameron, have given us a gift. We couldn't be more grateful. Thank you both for your incredible generosity. Our team is growing, and it's because of you: lclhost.org/blog/gratitude-0…

Bitwise makes this donation each year on behalf of the investors who choose $BITB.
Grateful for those that entrust us to steward their investments in the space.
As part of our annual commitment to support Bitcoin open-source developers, Bitwise is proud to donate $233,000 to support the unsung heroes maintaining and securing the Bitcoin network.
This year marked significant growth for the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF ($BITB), making this milestone even more meaningful. When $BITB first launched, we pledged to contribute 10% of gross profits each year. Today, we’re pleased to deliver on that promise with our second annual donation—reinvesting $BITB’s growth directly back into the ecosystem that powers it.
@bitcoinbrink, @OpenSats, and the @HRF Bitcoin Development Fund, three non-profit organizations whose shared missions are to safeguard and evolve Bitcoin, will allocate the funds.
This contribution is only made possible through investors who chose this journey with us. We are profoundly moved by the trust placed in Bitwise, and we feel immense gratitude to stand alongside our investors in sustaining the open-source heart of Bitcoin.
As $BITB continues to grow, so too does our contribution. Bitcoin is changing the world, and Bitwise will always strive to do our part to be a good steward of this incredible ecosystem.
From all of us at Bitwise, thank you.

This week, @PresidioBitcoin hosted the Bitcoin Quantum Summit (pbquantum.com). I was thrilled to be invited to attend, and wanted to write up a thread about what I learned this week. I’ll save my commentary for the end, and start with where we are, the challenges we (might) need to solve, and some of the solutions that have been proposed or that people are thinking about.🧵

Presidio Bitcoin has been in the works the past 10 months. Wences Casares and Mark Casey approached me wanting to give back to bitcoin. I reached out to several others (@HBerkoe, @Martellfox, @MaxAWebster, @dksf, @bobscully, JD, @_austin_f), had many conversations, and we came up with Presidio Bitcoin.
An overarching goal of the space is to be a bridge between Silicon Valley and bitcoin, two communities that often seem to misunderstand each other. Presidio Bitcoin will offer a space for big tech companies, local universities like Stanford and Berkeley, and organizations like EFF to learn more about bitcoin and appreciate how bitcoin is distinct from cRYpTo and web3.
We envision this as a vibrant space for bitcoin developers and entrepreneurs to work from everyday. In fact, we have been living that the past 3 months during our build out with a regular base of 15 people working here.
We also expect it to be THE hub for out of town bitcoiner visitors and local bitcoin-curious folks. We've already had ~100 different people visiting so far and hosted 2 events. Many more events to come including technical seminars, developer hackathons, the intersection of AI and bitcoin, innovation on bitcoin, freedom money initiatives, and policy discussion.
All of this wrapped up in a delightful package with this view from every single desk and conference room within the space.

The 2024 Ethereum Foundation report is finally out. Many bitcoiners won't care. I think they should, and a comparison between treasuries and spending across the Ethereum and bitcoin ecosystems is useful. 🧵

1/ As Bitcoin continues to grow, so does the pool of talented individuals contributing to critical codebases. However, full-time employment opportunities for these individuals remain limited.
In this video/podcast, the CEO of @CapitalGroup and I talk about long term investing (and touch on a blunder I made after my first date with my wife).
