The one chart we don't talk enough about. Every other DeFi ecosystem is shrinking in terms of the amount of Native Crypto deposited, all but #Cardano. We're experiencing a warm period in the middle of the bear market ice age.
The next bull run will be our bull run. https://image.nostr.build/0c2c7ce52b3d5c61e310f704564306d6dc92a43a08015f65e6b4c67f27245329.jpg

I am struggling with this question too.
I was subscribed to The Economist for a while, but then they started to print so many conformist half-truths that I stopped. Currently, I’m only reading the British version of The Spectator; however, it’s much broader than just economics.

#Cardano is the obvious winner of the next bull run, and this next bull run will dwarf all of the bull runs that came before. Why?
1) We have regulatory clarity for the first time, making entry easier.
2) We have more reasons for people to adopt crypto than ever before (global uncertainty).
3) ETH's failures are becoming more and more obvious, and new users will not accept $200 per transaction.
Our time has come, and we will take the market by storm - and everyone will say it was an overnight success.

Yes, you might be referring to the Genesis keys. There are three which are right now with IOG, the Foundation, and Emurgo. However, there is now a “Parliament” of users that will hold the keys (which are needed to upgrade the protocol).

Seeing the dynamics on platforms like IG, it’s clear that many ‘likes’ are generated by bots to boost brand engagement. Plus, a growing amount of content is AI-created. The ‘death of the internet’ theory seems increasingly real indeed

#ETH is not the answer and will never be safe. During the next bull run, it might very well lose its position because the high transaction fees will limit #ETH’s growth.

GM #Bitcoin and #Austrian School of Economics People: Which is the best book or paper to read about the costs and benefits of a society that runs on deflation?

2023-07-30 17:37:59

- reply

You’re very wise, my friend! I am also a former atheist. Certain experiences and my meditation practice left me in awe, and awe changed my perspective.
What many atheists see is God defined by faith rather than a God directly experienced. The Christian church in its early days had a school called Gnostics who taught similar ideas, but they were exterminated by the faith camp. Most atheists don’t realize that their anger (often completely righteous) is directed at a very narrow definition of God.
Or, as some Buddhists might say: I know that Buddha is just a story, and it’s okay. It’s not about the story anyway, but about the sound you hear.

Is there a #research #paper that explores various endgame scenarios for #bitcoin?
For instance, we’ve seen that volatility decreases steadily over the cycles. At what point will the volatility be low enough for #BTC to be considered stable?
What would a fundamentally deflationary economy look like? Would hard money combined with consistent economic growth lead to deflation?

This is amusing.
For the record you’re accusing me shilling #XRP and trying to sell me #BTC.
Friend, I own #BTC and have zero bags of #XRP.
My point is that #XRP is a real thing, and acknowledging it will not harm #BTC. You can say it’s not true and that none of the banking partnerships exist, and they even bought out AWS just to shill their coin. Fine, that’s an aluminum foil hat narrative that you can believe in, and if you do, good luck with it. But for the sake of reason, maybe you want to examine how much truth there is in your own beliefs. You will live a happier life by accepting that you can build more than one decentralized network than #BTC, as you’re just writing on one.
Alternatively, add to my amusement by adding to your narrative that #nostr also doesn’t exist.

Friend, I don’t own Ripple because I am not the biggest fan of their architecture.

I am not saying that banks are good. It would be better to rely solely on BTC, but the insecurity of some BTC holders is truly baffling. Just accept that other projects doing something innovative do not harm BTC. Give credit where credit is due.

You know what this is? The view from Ice Addis, the official #Cardano partner and local accelerator that hosts, among other things, several projects working on the identity stack, Atala Prism.
I do sometimes struggle to understand the insecurity of crypto communities. I own #Bitcoin and appreciate it as digital gold, and I can also fully appreciate the work and very real sacrifices that so many people around Cardano and #IOHK have made to push boundaries.
Did it all work out? No, a freaking war broke out in the meantime. Was it real, and are people still building? Yes! and tomorrow morning young people in Addis wake up, see this view and keep building!
