Bitcoin is a risk tolerance measuring device.
“You get the bitcoin at the price you deserve” is a phrase/meme that identifies individuals risk tolerance.
Success is a function of risk tolerance.

It’s not so simple. Height and terrain is really important for that distance due to the curvature of the earth. Ideally both antennas are elevated above the terrain by at least a couple hundred feet, wherein you run into structural legal issues.

The dude had a pretty large bitcoin stack and invested it into a “peaker plant” power company whose stated intention was to sell power to bitcoin miners (hut8). Peaker plants only turn on when power supplies are insufficient for demand. Bitcoin miners intentionally sell their allotment of power back to the grid during times of peak demand, as the power they’re allotted is more valuable at that moment than the bitcoin they could mine(ie- they can just sell the power and buy bitcoin)
The dude is kinda straight dumb. He calls bitcoin insurance, but used his bitcoin as capital for an investment in something that made no sense, and lost his shirt.

I agree it’s complicated, but i guess my point of contention is in the relative nature of scarce in this context.
Sure, hospitable land is seemingly scarce when compared to inhospitable lands. But relative to the scarcity of bitcoin, I would suggest it is actually quite abundant.
Whatever unit of land you want to use, it would seem more than 21million humans are able to have a single unit of hospitable land.
DuckDuckGo AI says there are 11bilion farmable acres of land on earth, and my math suggests that’s enough for 1.375 acres per person. Much more than the .002625 bitcoin available per person.

Yo sorry to interject and i agree with you but slight point of contention- Hawai’i is making new real estate almost every day. Is it really scarce? What about Martian real estate? Or Moon estates? Can’t technology unlock more of that asset?

What’s worse, in states like California they made it mandatory for public school teachers to refer students who show trans tendencies, like asking to be called an alternate gendered name, to school psychologists who are then mandated to provide gender affirming counseling.

Your description of America growing to a world power from early “open” boarder policies lacks context.
Pre revolution there was oftentimes extreme expense and hardship involved with immigrating to the USA, which often lead to indentured servitude to those whom paid for others way, slavery, or privately funded colonies bringing in people to farm and work the land- ie due to need.
There was actually very little immigration for the first 50+ years of the country’s history. Remember, it was VERY difficult to cross the ocean when this country was founded. Much more difficult to move around the world then compared to even the poorest of today’s migrants.
In the mid 1800s, a large influx of citizens were naturalized due to the Mexican American war, and the California gold rush. But at this point still greater than 90% of the citizenry was native born, as a majority of pre revolutionary immigrant citizens had passed.
Post-1850 manifest destiny and the expansion of the country westward demanded an increase in population to settle the American west, which began the major wave of immigration we all typically think of when we think of immigration history. But it really wasn’t even until 1880 with steam powered ships that immigration really began to grow quickly.
Your comment regarding 1921 is simply false. Immigration law began post civil war in 1875 when the Supreme Court deemed immigration federal jurisdiction, which lead to the Asian exclusion act being passed that same year.

Your theory is sensible when the corporations are competing with each other for the labor. As a laborer. Your skills are honed for a particular industry. In the case of the longshoreman, the ports do not compete for their labor. In fact, the ports formed their own alliance, the US maritime alliance, so instead of competing for labor they could negotiate with labor as a collective.
The fault lies on both sides.

From: Satoshi Nakamoto
Date: February 18, 2009 at 20:50:00 UTC
Subject: Bitcoin open source implementation of P2P currency
It is a global distributed database, with additions to the database by consent of the majority, based on a set of rules they follow:
- Whenever someone finds proof-of-work to generate a block, they get some new coins
- The proof-of-work difficulty is adjusted every two weeks to target an average of 6 blocks per hour (for the whole network)
- The coins given per block is cut in half every 4 years
You could say coins are issued by the majority. They are issued in a limited, predetermined amount.As an example, if there are 1000 nodes, and 6 get coins each hour, it would likely take a week before you get anything.
To Sepp's question, indeed there is nobody to act as central bank or federal reserve to adjust the money supply as the population of users grows. That would have required a trusted party to determine the value, because I don't know a way for software to know the real world value of things.
If there was some clever way, or if we wanted to trust someone to actively manage the money supply to peg it to something, the rules could have been programmed for that.
In this sense, it's more typical of a precious metal. Instead of the supply changing to keep the value the same, the supply is predetermined and the value changes. As the number of users grows, the value per coin increases. It has the potential for a positive feedback loop; as users increase, the value goes up, which could attract more users to take advantage of the increasing value.
