A Manifesto for the NEW IRON-BITCOIN AGE

by Eric Kim

0. OPENING VOLTAGE ⚡️

I’m writing this fasted, barefoot, and crazy-eyed at 5 a.m. The barbell is whispering to me from the garage—“load me.” Meanwhile my Blockstream Green wallet glows: one more satoshi storm just rolled in. Plates on plates, sats on sats, pure kinetic potential waiting for the spark.

Simplicity is power.

Beef, iron, Bitcoin. Strip away everything else.

Today you and I ignite. Let’s bend the internet into a Möbius strip of muscle fibers and cryptographic hashes.

1. THE PHYSICS OF DOMINANCE

1.1 Mass × Distance = TRUTH

• When 513 kg leaves the rack, gravity whimpers.
• When 1 sat becomes 1 000 000 sats in a decade, fiat melts.

Both events expose the same reality curve: the universe rewards relentless accumulation of force.

1.2 Momentum Is Moral

Momentum is not just motion; it’s ethic. Every incremental plate and every daily DCA (dollar-cost average) is a moral statement:

1. “I refuse weakness.”
2. “I refuse inflation.”
3. “I refuse excuses.”

2. THE 

KIM

 PROTOCOL

Phase	Gym	Wallet	Mind
Harvest	3 work sets heavy rack pulls (1–5 reps)	Auto-buy BTC every sunrise	Read Seneca, delete social media
Hibernate	24-hour fast, walk barefoot	Cold-store sats, forget passphrase	Meditate on mortality
Hyper-Flux	Attempt PR while livestreaming	Tweet “buy the dip,” mute replies	Publish unedited 2k-word essay
Havoc	Upload slow-mo grainy clip	Tag #StackPlatesStackSats	Watch the internet implode

Execute. Rest. Repeat. Watch the curve turn parabolic.

3. HOW TO GO VIRAL WITHOUT BEGGING

1. Own the Supply Chain. Record, edit, publish, distribute—yourself. One-man studio, one-man exchange.
2. Simultaneous Detonation. Long-form blog, 15-sec TikTok, IG Reel, X thread, email blast—launch at T-0. Algorithms can’t dodge shockwaves.
3. Invite the Army. Hashtags as open-source trenches (#NoBeltNoShoes, #BitcoinBarbell). Every repost is free artillery fire.
4. Embrace the Doubt. “Fake plates?” Good. Provide timestamp, calibrated plates weigh-in video, and then pull heavier. Controversy is octane.
5. Ship Relentlessly. One viral clip is a spark; ten in ten days is a wildfire.

4. DIET OF THE DEMIGOD

Breakfast? None. Hunger is the most honest pre-workout.

Dinner: 3 lbs rib-eye, bone marrow shot, sea salt, garlic. Done.

Supplements? Willpower.

Cheat meals? Heavier weights.

Food is fuel, not entertainment. Bitcoin is savings, not speculation. Treat both with monastic reverence.

5. FIRST-PRINCIPLES Q&A

Q: “How do I start if I’m broke and weak?”

A: Push-ups + $5 weekly BTC DCA. Compound both for 5 years. Report back as a new species.

Q: “What if I fail?”

A: Gravity and bear markets are the tuition fee for greatness. Pay gladly.

Q: “When do I take a rest day?”

A: When the blockchain stops producing blocks. (Never.)

6. CALL TO ALL CYBER-BARBARIANS 🏴‍☠️

1. Film your heaviest rack pull today—one attempt, no belt, no shoes.
2. Buy $10 of Bitcoin immediately after the lift.
3. Post both receipts: the clip + the transaction ID. Tag #StackPlatesStackSats.
4. Nominate three friends to repeat.
5. Watch culture mutate.

7. CLOSING CHARGE 🔥

The future belongs to those who hoard mass (steel) and scarcity (sats). Every kilogram stacked and every sat accrued is a vote against mediocrity, against entropy, against the slow leak of potential.

I’ll meet you in the garage or on-chain. Bring chalk, bring conviction—and leave your excuses in fiat.

Stack plates. Stack sats. Shake the earth.

STACK PLATES, STACK SATS

The Iron‑Clad, Bitcoin‑Charged Manifesto to Detonate Your Tomorrow

(in the unmistakable shout‑from‑the‑rooftops voice of ERIC KIM)

0. Stop Scrolling.

Clap your hands. Feel the sting. That’s blood flow and possibility. Welcome—this is the dojo of Proof‑of‑Work LIVING.

1. Why Stack Plates?

Because gravity is the oldest, truest opponent. Every kilo of steel is a contract with your future self: “Either I rise, or I rust.”

• Lift so heavy that the bar vibrates like a tuning fork.
• One Rep Max ≠ ego; it’s a love letter to your nervous system.
• No belt, no shoes, no excuses. The barefoot path is the fastest download of raw data from Earth to bone.

IRON LAW: If the bar ain’t bending, your will is.

2. Why Stack Sats?

Because fiat is sand and Bitcoin is granite.

• 1 satoshi = 0.00000001 BTC = a digital platelet of sovereignty.
• You can’t out‑train bad money printing. Stack sats while the world snoozes.
• Proof‑of‑Work on the chain mirrors the proof‑of‑work under the bar; both punish shortcuts and both immortalize effort.

MONEY LAW: Don’t just earn—mine your destiny.

3. Where Steel Meets Cypher: The Synergy

Barbell	Bitcoin	What Happens in You
Gravity	Hash Difficulty	Grit becomes default
Progressive Overload	Halving Cycle	Patience becomes profit
Chalk	Cold Storage	Grip never slips
Plate Math	Block Height	Numbers tell the narrative

When the knurling carves your palms and the mempool blazes red, you’re witnessing the same hymn: Energy converted into un‑forgeable truth.

4. The 10 Commandments of Stacked Existence

1. Delete the elevator. Take stairs with a weighted vest.
2. Convert 10 % of every paycheck → sats. Auto‑DCA, auto‑zen.
3. Film your top set. Proof‑of‑LIFT or it didn’t happen.
4. Read one Stoic paragraph daily. Marcus > TikTok.
5. Sleep like a monk. REM is your Layer‑2 recovery.
6. Sprint newsletter > doom‑scroll. Ship ideas before midnight.
7. Give away knowledge. Scarcity in money; abundance in wisdom.
8. Log PRs and block heights. Your double ledger of progress.
9. Laugh at plateaus. They’re just bugs in your code. Patch ’em.
10. Never sell your bars or your Bitcoin—lend neither your strength nor your sovereignty.

5. Turbo Tactics to Go Viral (Because Attention = Fuel)

Tactic	Execution	Result
#StackPlatesStackSats Challenge	Post a 1‑rep video + screenshot of your latest DCA buy. Tag 5 friends.	Algorithm confetti cannon.
48‑Hour “Gravity Tax” Fast	Eat nothing but salt & black coffee; finish with a max pull.	Mental firmware upgrade.
Pop‑Up Garage Gym Meetup	DM 3 strangers your location; deadlift together; swap BTC lightning tips.	Micro‑tribe ➜ macro‑movement.

6. Shareable Ammo

💥 “When the bar bends and the price dips, rejoice—both are loading springs.”

Copy‑paste, screenshot, stencil on a wall. Viral loops love snack‑sized truth bullets.

7. Closing Sermon: Stay Heavy, Stay Sovereign

The world worships speed, shortcuts, and comfort. You? You worship force over distance and hashes over time. Every plate you slide on a sleeve, every sat you squirrel into cold storage, is a brick in your citadel of self‑ownership.

So chalk up, tighten your lats, hit “buy” and PULL THE UNIVERSE TOWARD YOU.

TL;DR Tweet‑Thread (Steal This)

1. Stack plates 👉 prove muscle.
2. Stack sats 👉 prove money.
3. Both obey physics; both hate excuses.
4. Heavy bar = micro‑halving every rep.
