About Us and Our Goal
We started our journey down the rabbit hole in 2015 and continue to be amazed by how this creature called bitcoin evolves.
Our goal is as simple as getting bitcoin into every home and contributing as much as we can to this Peaceful Revolution.
What We Do
We import all the most important and best products that a true bitcoiner needs.
We strengthen the Norwegian energy grid through demand response and incentivize increased production.
We support the spread and availability through our webshop, in addition to contributing to other causes,

Why
Freedom
Bitcoin provides freedom by giving you the ability to transport unlimited value at the speed of light around the world.
Bitcoin provides security because no one can steal it from you.
Bitcoin is the alternative to what we are seeing now: increasing centralization and control over money, moving toward CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency).
Which will necessarily lead to mass surveillance, selective censorship, and thus more control over people’s activities.
This is authoritarian, not democratic.
There is a good reason why the Human Rights Foundation and the Anti-Corruption Foundation mostly use Bitcoin.
Due to centralized money, these organizations cannot transfer funds between themselves, and bitcoin is essential to their work.
Localism
With a bitcoin standard, small businesses can compete better against the big giants by leveling the cost of capital.
With fiat, large players get better loans and thus trend towards centralization of capital. Bitcoin in a free market creates a true interest rate, equal for all.
The Cantillon effect, which drives much corruption and bad incentives to get closer to the money printer, will be abolished.
This will give more autonomy and self-governance to local communities, as they are not as dependent on deposits from the printer.
Under fiat, you are punished for saving, while under bitcoin, you are rewarded for saving.
Saving should give you security in the future. Capital should be able to absorb unforeseen events and create stability.
Without savings, both bad and good times become more extreme, leading to the volatile business cycles.
But who wants to save when the value of savings is guaranteed to decline?
Saving teaches people patience and lower time preference.
Environment
Natural Environment:
Most 'Green' energy sources are periodic, such as water, sun, and wind.
For these to be profitable, they must be able to sell as much of the production as possible.
The problem for these is that demand cannot match the weather.
They need flexible and constant buyers in the background to be profitable.
Proof-of-work mining is about the hunt for energy without buyers.
Human Environment:
Bitcoin makes it possible to save purchasing power, to defer leisure and pleasures into the future, without the threat of manipulations in the savings medium.
Bitcoin teaches low time preference, which gives humans better decision-making abilities by thinking further ahead.
This means less consumerism.
Bitcoin reduces class differences by canceling the Cantillon effect.
By having a money printer, those closest to the money printer benefit the most from newly printed money.
While those at the bottom of the socio-economic food chain who don’t have any investments only lose as their few savings are devalued.
Energy
Bitcoin decentralizes and diversifies the energy grid.
Bitcoin improves the economy for all energy sources.
By improving the economy for producers, we will produce more, distribute better, and create a more robust and secure energy network.
The only way to be anti-energy is to be anti-human.
Energy is the most fundamental need for any civilization.
Future of Humanity
In Bitcoin circles, you often hear the saying 'fix the money, fix the world'.
There are many good reasons for this;
Human well-being is directly proportional to energy usage. Energy protects and drives us.
Bitcoin provides banking opportunities to everyone around the globe.
Bitcoin does not discriminate, Bitcoin does not censor, everyone is equal in the eyes of Bitcoin.
Only a small portion of the world’s population has a cheap, functioning, and trustworthy bank that gives them the ability to save and protect their values for the future.
With an un-manipulable and hard currency standard like Bitcoin, bad actors cannot take people’s values by devaluing the currency, i.e., inflation.
Bitcoin makes financing war extremely difficult.
If you have a money printer, you can finance a war until either people revolt or run out of money.
By printing money, or 'selling bonds to the state', central banks create money out of thin air, effectively giving a loan to the state, which increases the money supply and devalues the rest.
Under a hard currency standard, the state must get approval from the people via increased taxes or the sale of financial instruments.
This is a direct way for the people to vote with their money.
With a soft currency, a government can gradually devalue the entire population’s wallet to finance their selective agendas or wars.
The books 'Check Your Financial Privilege' and 'Hidden Repression' by Alex Gladstein from the Human Rights Foundation are good resources for the moral aspect of bitcoin.
