In the Netherlands you work hard,
you save diligently, and still your
wealth slowly slips away.
In the Netherlands, box 3 taxes savings on a notional return. Inflation can erode the purchasing power of what is left. Together they shape what you actually keep.
That's why we keep our wealth in Bitcoin...
No marketing shoot. Our real life.
No filter. No script. Just our life. Costa Blanca, Bybit Amsterdam, Maya Bay. One family, one mission.
Be your own bank.
Live your own life.
We're an adventurous family of four traveling the world and living all-in on Bitcoin. We don't think in euros, we think in sats. For us, euros are just a tool: to cover daily expenses, and to buy more Bitcoin with. Never the other way around.
We believe in small, deliberate steps, good education, and a safe start. No hype, no moonshots. Just our story, our mistakes, and what actually works.
Traveling the world with purpose
From Dubai to Thailand and Portugal. We travel around and talk to people who are taking this step.
Bitcoin as savings, not a gamble
We treat bitcoin as long-term savings, not as a quick bet. Its maximum supply stays capped at 21 million bitcoin by the protocol.
Be your own bank
No middleman, no permission needed. With the right knowledge, you, and you alone, can access your own money.
Come for the greed.
Stay for the technology.
No hype, no moonshots, no 100x promises. Just a philosophy that works for us, day in, day out.
We think in sats
“Our euros are a tool. To cover our spending, and to buy more Bitcoin with. Not the other way around.”
Sats stay sats
“A satoshi stays a satoshi. Bitcoin's maximum supply stays capped at 21 million by the protocol. We don't watch the daily price, we watch our stack.”
Savings in real money
“Not an investment, not a gamble. 21 million Bitcoin, no more, no less. No central bank that can print extra.”
“Not as an investment.
As long-term savings.”
