100 bitcoin bought my freedom, but I lost something bigger

[00:00:00]This is the story that everyone asked for the day that we sold our house for 100 Bitcoin and left the system for good and what it actually cost us beyond the money. It is the decision that changed everything for my family going all in Bitcoin with three kids and the marriage on the line. And this is the part that nobody talks about.

[00:00:23]Good morning, good afternoon, good evening wherever you are. It's beautiful whenever you're watching this video.

[00:00:27]Welcome to the Bitcoin family for the newcomers guys. My name is Diddi. One family story. Four charts that you need to see. An inspirational quote. This is a deep one guys. No news, no life numbers, just a lived experience that can change your life forever. Keep watching till the end. If you are watching this because you have been thinking about going all in, but the fear of what people will think is louder than your own vision and you want someone who's actually done it to walk you through the real steps, not the Instagram version that you see online, then use the link in the description to apply to work with me and my team. We'll see if there is a fit, guys. And we have helped people from 25 to 80 years old to make exactly this shift. The next step is not watching more videos. It is deciding if you're ready or not to change. I'm going to tell you a story about 2017 when we sold the house. We went all in. And it's not going to be about the trade itself, but the identity shift, telling my family I wasn't coming back to the Netherlands, watching friends think I was in a crazy face burning the bridge to the old life with three kids watching. Guys, you know why?

[00:01:42]Because conviction isn't about markets.

[00:01:44]It's about who you're willing to disappoint.

[00:01:48]Everyone focuses on the Bitcoin trade.

[00:01:50]Nobody is talking about the identity shift because that is the hardest part of going all in. It is not the volatility of the price. It was all the goodbyes to all the family members, to all the friends, to the complete old life, to the kids of their schools, to my colleagues, saying goodbye to them, while knowing they were thinking we were taking the wrong step, the wrong move. I was betting my family's future for Bitcoin while knowing that. That was the hardest part to look all of those personally in the eye and tell them, "Hey guys, we think this is the best for our family and you know inside how they will react." And you know why? Because you would have done the same if you would stay the normal person that you were. I would probably also have said, "Oh, you're going all in into something that nobody knows and risk everything that you build up in the last decades and now go with your kids to these countries where you don't even know it's safe." And that was of course the first thought of our family and friends. It took him years to really understand the whole goal was freedom because we did realize after years of living in the Netherlands in the Dutch European system that it was a prison that was keeping us small. And why? Because of how it was built. Because of all the inflation, because of everything becoming more expensive, our purchasing power decreasing. because of everything that the governments and the central banks did to keep us poor. Even if I was running companies and I did some extra work, I need to increase my working hours. I need to increase whatever it was, I needed to work harder and harder and harder to be able to each year keep living the same living standard.

[00:03:32]I hope you understand what I'm saying.

[00:03:34]And I also know that you are feeling the same. You're running in a wheel and you need to run faster and faster to keep on going on holiday twice a year or to keep buying the same amount of groceries or to be able to give your kids beautiful presents with their birthday. It becomes harder and harder because you live in a system that is created to keep you poor.

[00:04:00]That's the truth. And to show you this truth, because I'm not going to make this too long, this video, I will show you three epic charts that will tell you exactly what I would have happened if I would have stayed in that system that you're still in and what happened now because I stepped out. And if that will relate to you and you doubt about how to do that, then we will be there to guide you. There is a link below all my videos. If you use that link, you can apply to work together with my team and me so that we can guide you one- on-one into the freedom that you deserve, that everyone deserves. And it is not that difficult. We won't require you to sell the house and go all in and everything.

[00:04:42]We have a strategy. If you want to find out that strategy, then just use that link. Now, let's deep dive into the charts to show you the hardcore proof of what I just told you.

[00:04:53]The first chart for the day, guys. what 100 Bitcoin bought us in 2017 versus what four Bitcoin buys us today. Guys, in 2017, our house 300K was 100 Bitcoin.

[00:05:06]At that moment, let's say one Bitcoin was around $3,000. At that moment, the house was 300K. Now, it was a suburban home. It was a beautiful house. We had four or five bedrooms. We had bought rooms. We had a garage. Of course, everything was there. Now, if we now calculate what we bought by then for 100 bitcoins and convert it to today, we would only use four to five bitcoins to buy exactly that same house. We do not need 100 bitcoins anymore to buy back the house that we sold at the time. So that shows you that the purchasing power of the dollar decreased but the purchase power of the bitcoins increased. So pause the video and analyze the numbers but it's very simple. In bitcoin the house became cheaper in dollars. The house became more expensive. I keep repeating these charts so you can really understand what bitcoin did for us and what it also can do for you.

[00:06:09]The cost of staying in fiat is also very important that you realize that you think that staying in fiat is the safe thing to do. It is something that is being taught to you by your parents and by the system and that should be safe.

[00:06:24]But if you calculate the cost of staying in fiat and check your purchasing power from 2017 to today starting at 300k at that moment, the purchasing power was completely destroyed. Of course, at the moment you still have 300K on your bank account. So the bank shows you, hey, you still have 300,000. It stays the same. But if you calculate how much you can buy since 2017 and now in 2026, the real purchasing power at the moment is only 189,000 euro. So the numbers on your account show 300,000 euro, but because of the inflation, you're only able to buy 189,000 euros worth of value if you compare it to 2017 where you could still buy 300,000 euro worth of value. So in 2017, 300,000 bought 300,000 worth of life. In 2026, €300,000 euro buys roughly only 189,000 euro worth of life. You have lost11,000 37% in purchasing power. And these numbers are not like sucked out of my thumb. These are inflation data numbers from the Euro area HICP source Euroat.

[00:07:49]Not my source. It's an official source telling you now how much that you lost.

[00:07:56]So please understand also this job nominal euros the purchasing power and then check the bitcoin purchasing power.

[00:08:04]300k was 100 bitcoin does 100 bitcoin today have a purchasing power of 6.5 million. So, what do you prefer?

[00:08:14]Changing 300,000 euro into 189,000 euro or changing 300,000 euro into 6.5 million euro. A question I need to ask you is why do you stay in this one? What what is the reason? Please comment down below that you stay in those euros while you see that the data, the history shows you completely different. I could also put here gold or silver or any other store of value. They would all outperform the euro. Why are you still calculating and hodddling and saving in euros? Even your pension fund in euros.

[00:08:51]You will not be able to buy the same amount of stuff in the future when you go with your pension because of the number changing. The game is changing along the way. Please understand that you should start to look at Bitcoin.

[00:09:05]The number stay the same. the purchasing power disappeared in euros. Inflation was the invisible tax. You do not have this in Bitcoin. Now, let's take a look for example also what you can do if you have children to my daughter's Bitcoin wallets. And of course these numbers are all examples but it does show you what the difference would be because in the moment eight years of traveling all over the world in 10 years but 8 years all in $3 they all collected like two bitcoins like 170,000 euro in value in total and this is built out of birthday gift for example and savings you know they get an allowance each month they get birthday gifts each year and by that they tech sets because we do not give euros, we do not give dollars as we do not believe in euros and dollars, we give bitcoin. Even better, if we ask the children, what do you want? They nowadays want bitcoin. They don't even think about euros and dollars anymore. And why not? Because of this, the value that was like $2,000 or $1,800 or $1,200 in 2017 or 18 is now 68 or 60 or 42,000 of worth.

[00:10:25]So, please understand that by keep stacking sets, their purchasing power and their capital grows way faster than if they would do it in euros.

[00:10:36]So if you are thinking about inheritance and what am I going to leave behind for my children blah blah blah blah blah start giving now start giving through bitcoin the moment you start to give bitcoin now you're creating generational wealth one set at a time so by now for example because of all the savings Julia has 0.8 8 bitcoin. Juna has 0.7 bitcoin. Jess is still 0.5.

[00:11:03]She's younger, less year of saving of course as well. Less allowance. And of course, the older they get, the higher the birthday gifts were are. So that's why there is a difference. But just imagine that I would have given them euros instead of bitcoin.

[00:11:20]They would have been way poorer now than they are now expressed in bitcoin. If you want to start and change your kids' future, start by giving their birthday gifts in Bitcoin. That's better than all the other stuff that he never use. So, that's my opinion. Last chart, guys. If you look of course at the net worth of the family um in bitcoins or euros and then we assume that our net worth in 2017 was $300,000 then you can see clearly now that that $300,000 changed into more than $6 million in the top it was even $10 million in 2029 the new bull market top it will be way higher than $10 million. I believe we will come near the $25 million with the 300K to 100 bitcoins in 2029.

[00:12:18]100 bitcoins in my opinion is going to be $25 million.

[00:12:25]If we would have kept that in euros guys or dollars, we would maybe have a little bit nominal interest. So we would have grown to $40,000 US. But then again, considering the inflation 37% in those R8 years, my purchasing power would only be $189,000.

[00:12:47]So the distance between now having $189,000 worth of purchasing power or 6.5 million is insane. This is a $2,67% growth in 8 years time.

[00:13:03]So you can keep running that hamster wheel. That's why it's there on the chart. And the fiat system is forcing you to run the hamster wheel faster and faster and faster because everything becomes more expensive. You need to work more hours. You get more stressed, etc., etc., etc. You keep running because you're blind to see what is outside of the hamster wheel. Bitcoin will open your eyes and will show you a different way of freedom life because the capital starts to work for you. Simple as that, guys. Last chart for today.

[00:13:36]I hope again that you enjoyed those charts and I hope you understand the proof. If you still think you need extra guidance to change and to take that first step, then use the link to apply to work with me and I will take away all your doubt and give you clarity and the strategy. That is the only thing you need. Clarity and a strategy. It is simple. And do please understand we didn't leave because we had it all figured out. We left because staying was a bigger risk. My kids didn't ask for permission to grow up free. I just had to give them the chance. I didn't want them to grow up in that system that made me sick. Real freedom will start where fear will end. That is the most important thing that you need to understand. In 2017, we sold everything and left the only life that we knew. Not because the mask was easy, but because staying afraid was harder than leaving.

[00:14:38]That's when the freedom actually started.

[00:14:42]It is all about courage. The courage to take that first step. But that courage will become way more easy and acceptable if you have guidance through those first steps. If somebody can show you what they did, what many other community members did and what you could do as well in a very safe and stable way. That is the only thing I want to show you.
