I'm Ridin' Solo 📈

Block, the brainchild of Jack Dorsey and Jim McKelvey, just reported a jaw-dropping profit of $1.87 billion. That's a whopping 27% increase from last year! And what's driving this success? None other than the soaring sales of Bitcoin. A letter to shareholders stated: "The year-over-year increase in Bitcoin revenue and gross profit was driven by an increase in the quantity of Bitcoin sold to customers".

Taking dollar cost averaging to the next level 💸

A Bitcoin wallet has become the world's third-largest holder of Bitcoin in just over three months, with a whopping 118,000 BTC worth roughly $3.08 billion at current prices.

The owner is unknown and speculation has thrown the Bitcoin space into a world of wild theories. All we know is they clearly mean business and have the money to walk the walk.

Putting Bitcoin miners in the landfill 🗑️

Methane from landfills is a strong greenhouse gas that's 25 times better at trapping heat than carbon dioxide. Nodal Power turns leaked methane into energy, reducing emissions and generating profits while keeping the air clean.

Add a Bitcoin miner to the equation and now we're cooking with gas trash! This is exactly what Nodel Power is doing and plans to expand with their $13M raise.
