Brian Hicks’ “Bitcoin Loophole” Recommendation – Turn $1,000 Into $69,650?

The founder of Angel Publishing, Brian Hicks is stepping out of the executive suite and into the investment newsletter guru space with a teaser about Bitcoin that has nothing to do with buying Bitcoin or any Bitcoin ETFs.

Instead, what Brian is about to reveal is a “Bitcoin Loophole” that transcends all the usual cryptocurrency investments.

 

The Teaser

This is a vastly overlooked investment opportunity that gives us exposure to Bitcoin directly through our regular investment brokerage account, no running a Bitcoin mining rig in our garage or mom's basement required.

In his bio on his website, Brian is described as “a seasoned future trend seeker” who writes about high-profit opportunities in the currently tumultuous geopolitical environment. 

Brian hasn't personally graced the pages of Green Bull until now. But we have reviewed numerous Angel Publishing pitches in the past, including Keith Kohl's “Nvidia Killer” Company and Alex Koyfman's “Lithium Volcano” Mining Company, among others.

We're told that this play had soared up to 6,865% in just 14 months. Turning a $5,000 stake into a $348,250 profit.

The best part is that we can invest in this “Bitcoin Loophole” today with as little as $25.

Bitcoin Bull Run Gets Greenlight

This past January, the first U.S.-listed Bitcoin ETF made its debut on the New York Stock Exchange.

Reuters has hailed this development as “a game-changer for Bitcoin” and it isn't wrong.

Since that time, more than 700 registered investment firms have invested nearly $5 Billion into Bitcoin ETFs. 

These inflows are only getting started and will increase as more retail investors buy into crypto and blockchain-based businesses.

Consider this, only 4% of the population owns some form of cryptocurrency. However, 1 in 5 Americans have a retirement account with Fidelity, which is the owner of a Bitcoin ETF.

This ease of investing going forward shouldn't be discounted and could act as fuel for Bitcoin prices in the years to come.

However, Brian says he's found “a far superior way to capitalize on Bitcoin's growth”, which does not involve buying Bitcoin or a Bitcoin ETF.

This obscure Bitcoin play offers “a more significant upside, as it leverages the underlying value of Bitcoin to offer potentially higher returns”. But it's still accessible through our regular brokerage account.

 

The Pitch

Brian reveals his little-known play in an exclusive research report called: “The Bitcoin Loophole: How to Get Exposure Without Owning a Single Coin or ETF.”

All he asks is that we give his R.I.C.H. (Retired, Independent, Carefree, and Healthy) advisory service a try. It costs $99 to do so and the service comes with a 180-day money-back guarantee, 12 monthly issues, weekly updates to capitalize on time-sensitive market opportunities, and proven health, nutrition, and exercise advice that'll make you feel like you're 18 again, that's a new one, so bonus points for originality here.

 

What the heck is the “Bitcoin Loophole”?

Brian boasts that his way of tapping into the world's biggest cryptocurrency is so easy that it only takes 90 seconds.

So, what is it? It's this thing…

For those of us who aren't crypto nerds, this piece of computing hardware is a Bitmain cryptocurrency mining machine.

Five inches wide, six inches tall, and not much bigger than a loaf of bread. Yet it's been a (legal) money-printing machine up to this point.

Based on this revelation, we now know that Brian is teasing a publicly traded Bitcoin miner. 

But this isn't any old Bitcoin miner, it's one with the ability to print Bitcoin on an industrial scale.

The Most Efficient Cryptocurrency Printer the World Has Ever Seen

Brian's Bitcoin mining operation has 11 facilities, with two more on the way, each capable of holding 231,000 high-performance computers, with each one capable of 14 trillion calculations per second.

They operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year without interruption, and print 92 newly-minted Bitcoins every single day.

If we do some simple math, even assuming a $40,000 price per Bitcoin, that's $3.68 million a day in revenue or a cool $1.3 billion a year.

However, Brian believes Bitcoin is headed to $200,000 per coin, at which point this miner's revenue would hit $6.7 billion a year and this doesn't even include the fees it generates for helping maintain Bitcoin's blockchain.

Of course, this could all pale in comparison to the large stockpile of Bitcoin this firm is accumulating, which also doubles as some margin of safety. Let's find out the name of this Bitcoin miner.

 

Revealing Brian Hicks' “Bitcoin Loophole” Stock

For this one, we have quite a few clues to work with. Here is what we know so far:

• This Bitcoin mining operation generated $387.5 million in revenue last year.
• It operates 11 mining hubs and it recently spent $200 million to acquire two more sites in Texas.
• Its stock is currently trading in the $25 range.

The “Bitcoin Loophole” stock is…Marathon Digital Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: MARA). All of the clues align, like loaves of bread in a grocery store aisle:

• Marathon Digital's revenue was $387.5 million in fiscal year 2023.
• The company operated 11 mining sites on three continents before its most recent acquisition of two Bitcoin mining sites in Texas, one in January and the other in March of this year.
• Marathon stock currently trades just above $21 per share, down slightly from earlier this year.

 

Real Shot at Turning Every $1,000 Invested into $69,650?

At first glance, Marathon Digital Holdings looks like a decent buy at a price/book value of 3x with a return on equity of over 30%.

Similarly, Marathon only has $326 million of notes payable outstanding, as its only real liability, which is covered by its $324 million of cash on hand, as of the end of Q1 2024.

However, Brian is teasing a 70x return on capital, which implies Marathon will grow to a $420 billion market cap, from its present $6 billion.

This would be asking a lot of any business, but expecting this from a Bitcoin miner, whose network maintenance fees will be cut in half every four years, with each Bitcoin halving, and whose operating costs will continue to increase, is almost asking the impossible.

The only way Marathon can keep growing at an above-average rate is if the price of Bitcoin does the same.

Of course, there's no guarantee this will happen, and given Bitcoin's wild price swings in the past, it's not exactly the most reliable asset.

Marathon appears to be a low-cost operator, with top-of-the-line Bitcoin mining equipment, so it is likely to keep growing, albeit at a moderate pace. I like the company as an asset play, but not as a high-growth stock.

 

Quick Recap & Conclusion

• Founder and Publisher of Angel Publishing, Brian Hicks is teasing a “Bitcoin Loophole” that is an overlooked way to gain exposure to Bitcoin directly from your regular investment brokerage account.
• We learn that what Brian is teasing here is a publicly traded Bitcoin miner, with the ability to print Bitcoin on an unprecedented scale.
• Brian reveals his little-known play in an exclusive research report called: “The Bitcoin Loophole: How to Get Exposure Without Owning a Single Coin or ETF.” The only way to get it is to give his R.I.C.H. (Retired, Independent, Carefree, and Healthy) advisory service a try, which costs $99 per year.
• If you read to the end, you can skip this step, as we were able to reveal his “Bitcoin Loophole” stock for free as Marathon Digital Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: MARA).
• Marathon isn't a bad asset play due to the $1.2 billion worth of Bitcoin it owns, which could continue to appreciate. But it's not a high-growth stock because its revenue gets cut in half every four years, with every Bitcoin halving, while its operating costs continue to increase.
