Welcome to Nofinity

• The S&P 500 and Nasdaq are at all-time high valuations. Dividend yield is just 1%, while historical dividend growth is 7%.
• A major crash is possible: if the yield rises to 2%, the market would drop 50%. At 4% yield, you'd break even after 20 years.

• Berkshire Hathaway as an example: earnings grow like the S&P 500 (7% p.a.), but with a cheaper P/E (12–24). Future earnings could generate $2–4 billion – outperforming the S&P 500.
• Few cheap buys right now; best opportunities were 1.5 years ago. His research platform has two strong picks (P/E 9, ROE 20%).

• Global ETFs have similarly low dividend yields (1%) plus higher fees. They are also overvalued and perform worse than the S&P 500.

• Hedging: Uncorrelated businesses (e.g., niche food) as a hedge. Requires extensive research.
• Going short: Also difficult.

• The market has risen 11–12x in 17 years – easy gains are over.
• His research platform offers a 21-day money-back guarantee. Check it out to build a long-term value investing portfolio.

Summary follows...

On November 18, 2012, 13-year-old Dylan Redwine reluctantly travels to his father Mark Redwine in Vallecito, Colorado. Dylan wants to spend Thanksgiving with his mother Elaine, but a court order forces him to visit. Just hours later, Dylan disappears.

The Last Night and the Disappearance

• Dylan lands in Durango on the evening of November 18 and is captured on surveillance cameras with his father.
• They drive to Mark Redwine's house. Dylan texts his friend Ryan, asking to stay over, but Mark forbids it.
• The next morning, Mark claims he saw Dylan sleeping on the couch around 7:30 AM before running errands.
• When Mark returns at 11:30 AM, Dylan is gone – his fishing rod and backpack are reportedly missing. The fishing rod is later found in the garage.
• Dylan fails to meet his friend Ryan at 6:30 AM. His mother Elaine receives no reply to her messages after 10 PM.
• Mark reports Dylan missing at 6:00 PM.

The Search and Initial Suspicions

• A large-scale search with dogs, divers, and helicopters yields no results.
• Mark Redwine is passive in the search and insists Dylan ran away.
• A neighbor reports seeing the porch light on at 2 AM, although Mark claimed he went to sleep between 9:30 and 10 PM.
• A search dog finds no scent of Dylan on the pillow he allegedly slept on.

The Search Warrant and the Blood

• On November 29, 2012, Mark's house is searched. Luminol reveals bloodstains in multiple locations in the living room: on the couch, floor, under a rug, and on a loveseat.
• The blood is positively identified as Dylan's.
• Mark changes his story multiple times: first claiming Dylan had a lip injury from the flight, then that Dylan was hit in the face with a football. Both versions are contradictory.

The Cadaver Dog Molly (August 2013)

• A cadaver dog alerts at numerous spots in and around Mark's house: the front door, entrance, stairs, fireplace, living room, upstairs bathroom, washing machine area, garage door, yard, and a shed.
• The dog also alerts on Mark's clothing (jeans, sneakers, T-shirt) and his Dodge pickup truck – outside, inside on the back seat, and in the truck bed.

The Remains and the Motive

• In spring 2013, Dylan's shoe, clothing items, and bones are found 8 miles from Mark's house.
• On November 1, 2015, Dylan's skull is found about 2 miles from the first site. The medical examiner finds severe blunt force trauma: a fracture and possible sharp force injuries.
• The motive lies in a disgusting secret: During a 2011 road trip, Dylan and his brother Corey discover photos on Mark's laptop showing their father in women's underwear eating feces from a diaper.
• Corey saves the photos and confronts Mark months before Dylan's death. Dylan repeatedly asks Corey to send him the photos, likely to confront his father.

The Trial and the Verdict

• Mark Redwine is arrested in July 2017 and charged with second-degree murder and child abuse resulting in death.
• The prosecution presents a strong circumstantial case: the bloodstains, cadaver dog evidence, and the motive from the photos.
• The defense argues Dylan was killed by a wild animal (bear or mountain lion) after wandering into the woods alone.
• After only 6.5 hours of deliberation, the jury finds Mark Redwine guilty on both counts.
• On October 8, 2021, he is sentenced to 48 years in prison.

Outcome: Dylan Redwine was 13 years old. He was forced to visit his father despite not wanting to. The forensic evidence, his father's behavior, and the shocking secret Dylan and Corey uncovered leave little doubt about Mark's guilt.

This video from Coin Bureau analyzes whether Ethereum (ETH) is a fundamentally better corporate treasury asset than Bitcoin (BTC), using Tom Lee's company Bitmine as a case study. It highlights how staking generates income but also introduces significant risks.

Bitmine's Success: Staking Dominates

• Bitmine pivoted from a Bitcoin mining operation to an Ethereum treasury company.
• In the quarter ending May 2026, Bitmine reported $46.5M total revenue, with $45.7M (98%) from Ethereum staking.
• The company holds roughly 5.77M ETH (~4.8% of total ETH supply), with 85% actively staked.
• Tom Lee projects $284M annual yield when fully deployed – equivalent to a ~2.7–3.2% return.

The Key Difference from Bitcoin (e.g., Strategy/MicroStrategy)

• Bitcoin generates no cash flow – it sits idle in cold storage.
• Strategy holds ~845,000 BTC but earns nothing directly; its model relies on an MNAV premium (market value > BTC holdings), which collapsed in 2026 (MNAV below 1.0).
• Strategy was forced to sell 32 BTC to cover dividend obligations – breaking its 'never sell' pledge.

Risks of Ethereum Staking

• Protocol issuance: Most staking rewards are newly minted ETH – non-stakers are diluted. This is not external revenue.
• Slashing risk: Validators can lose ETH for misbehavior (historically low but non-zero).
• Smart contract & centralization risk: Providers like Lido control ~25% of staked ETH – a single point of failure.
• Regulatory risk: Staking-as-a-service faces SEC scrutiny; while the stance softened in 2025/2026, no law guarantees its status.
• Governance risk: Ethereum can change reward structures via protocol upgrades, potentially reducing yields.

The Reality Behind the Numbers

• Despite record staking revenue, Bitmine posted a net loss of $82–84M in the same quarter due to ETH price drops.
• Bitmine's average cost basis is ~$3,500 per ETH; with ETH trading below $2,000, it faces billions in unrealized losses.
• A 9.5% dividend on preferred shares is a fixed obligation regardless of ETH's price.

Conclusion: Yield ≠ Safety

• ETH staking generates cash flow but does not protect against price declines of the underlying asset.
• A ~3% yield is cold comfort if the asset drops 48% in value.
• Bitcoin deliberately avoids yield – eliminating risks like slashing, regulation, or governance changes.
• The choice between ETH and BTC as a treasury asset comes down to risk tolerance: cash flow vs. structural simplicity.

The Retirement Savings Account (RSA – Altersvorsorgedepot) will launch on January 1, 2027, offering state subsidies for private retirement planning. There are two variants: a self‑managed account (choose your own ETFs) and a standard account (the provider selects two ETFs – one low‑risk, one higher‑risk). Only funds/ETFs with limited risk are allowed – no individual stocks, crypto, or leveraged ETFs.

• Allowances: Up to €540 per year (50 % on the first €360 contribution, 25 % on the next €1,800). Additionally: child allowance of up to €300 per child and a €200 starter bonus for those under 25. Minimum contribution: €120 annually.
• Tax savings: Contributions (max. €1,800 + allowances) are tax‑deductible. The tax refund is reduced by the allowance already received.
• No capital gains tax: During the accumulation and payout phases, no tax is levied on capital gains or reallocations.

1. Tax in the payout phase: The entire payout (contributions + allowances + returns) is taxed at your personal income tax rate. Advantageous if your tax rate in retirement is lower than during your working years.
2. Child allowance: Up to €300 per child per year – a clear advantage over a regular ETF savings plan.
3. Costs: Still uncertain. Standard account has a cost cap of 1 % p.a. Self‑managed accounts are expected to cost around 0.5 % p.a. (some brokers may offer it for free). Sparkassen and Volksbanken are likely to be more expensive.
4. Flexibility: The money is locked in until retirement. The earliest payout start is age 65 (or earlier if you qualify for state pension earlier). By age 70 at the latest, a payout plan must begin, lasting at least until age 85. A one‑time lump sum of 30 % is possible at retirement (be aware of tax shock). Early termination requires repaying all allowances and tax benefits.

The video introduces a free online calculator that compares the RSA against a regular ETF savings plan. Key parameters: income during accumulation phase, income in retirement, children, expected return, and costs.

Bottom Line: The RSA is worthwhile if

• your tax rate in retirement is lower than today,
• you choose a low‑cost provider,
• you can accept limited flexibility, and
• you have children.

Warning: There is a current “gold rush” – many providers are already collecting data. Do not register or open an account prematurely. Wait until concrete offers (including costs and ETF selection) are available from January 1, 2027. Switching providers within the first five years may cost up to €150.

• The host discusses an upcoming conference in New Zealand (Canbury Tech Summit, September 2026) and looks forward to meeting local subscribers.
• Bitcoin's price is currently well below the fair value logarithmic regression trend line. This mirrors the 2019 cycle, and further undervaluation is possible.
• The market is in a „post-ATH digestion phase“ overlapping with the four-year cycle. Recovery is expected only in a few months.

• Scams and security vulnerabilities: The host criticizes scams, memecoin rug pulls, and hacks (e.g., of cold storage devices) that have cost many investors money. He calls for a focus on genuine security.
• Declining interest: YouTube viewership is dropping because newcomers are often deterred by fraud, losing trust.
• Misplaced priorities: The host warns that some influential voices portray rug pulls as positive for Bitcoin because they generate attention, but this leads to long-term trust erosion.

• The four-year cycle remains the key indicator: further depreciation by year-end is likely, followed by a new bull market.
• A long-term market cap of $10 trillion (plus or minus a few trillion) is forecast for Bitcoin.
• The industry must drive fundamental improvements (security, integrity) rather than just focusing on ETFs or strategic Bitcoin reserves to achieve sustainable growth.

• Lelit introduces the new Elizabeth 3 (dual boiler) and Victoria 3 (single boiler) with integrated Pagaya function (pulse width modulation) for precise flow control.

• Two programmable profiles via buttons: You can set multiple stages (e.g., gentle pre-infusion, pressure ramp-up) with variable flow.
• Pressure sensor and pressure display allow real-time monitoring.
• No volumetric dosing, but time-based control – a remarkable development in this price range.

• Victoria 3 costs approx. €1,300 (€300 surcharge over the base version).
• Elizabeth 3 is priced at €1,600 (also €300 surcharge).

• Following the acquisition by Sage (Breville), many patents (around 400, 250 active) are now being incorporated into the Lelit line. This quality and feature set would not have been possible earlier.

• A detailed test with temperature measurement and thorough analysis is planned. First impressions are very positive.
