Dear Readers,

It’s Thinking Time! This week we cover the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, how it came to be, its powers, and the departments so far that have felt its far reaching hands. We also cover Canada and its attempts to fight back as Trump continues to put pressure on it.

We want to acknowledge that our coverage has been more political than TBL has previously been, however, it is in response to politics and the economy being more intertwined than ever before. With that being said, let’s get right to it.

TBL Thinks is our way to summarize the most important paywalled, longer reads relevant to global macroeconomics, helping you cut through the noise. With that in mind, please enjoy.


As bitcoin's role in the global financial landscape evolves, understanding its potential impact on your wealth becomes increasingly crucial. Whether we see measured adoption or accelerated hyperbitcoinization, being prepared for various scenarios can make the difference between merely participating and truly optimizing your position.

This is why Unchained developed the Bitcoin Calculator – a sophisticated modeling tool that helps you visualize and prepare for multiple bitcoin futures. Beyond traditional retirement planning, it offers deep insight into how different adoption scenarios could transform your wealth trajectory.

What sets this tool apart is its integration with the Unchained IRA – the only solution that combines the tax advantages of a retirement account with the security of self-custody. In any future state, maintaining direct control of your keys remains fundamental to your bitcoin strategy.
