So what happens when the music stops? Does the flywheel seize up?
I see Citron is already shorting MSTR
This seems like just the kind of hype the whales need. They will sell into it.

kind of funny to see bitcoin take off when a central gov. buys in :)

there are other ways to solve it, what’s lacking is political will.
Bitcoin is not the answer, as bitcoin is worth nothing, it has no value.

Hi Lyn,
Not sure what you mean by:
"In other words, Nostr separates the client layer from the public domain communication protocol layer for social media, in a similar (and even more thorough) way that webmail clients separate the client layer from the SMTP public domain communication protocol layer for email.”
In what sense is it more thorough?
It’s a great read, thanks!

@npub1a2c…w83a , water off a Duck’s back, seriously ignore that shit. Wait for a real review from someone who can critique it and offer you good feedback.
I always learn a lot from reading solid reviews.

Lyn, thanks, this resonates. I keep thinking we need labor to make a comeback, bring back the days when the Teamsters could shut down the whole country.

Not quite, I pay back 1.01 BTC and now have a house that is worth less than 1 BTC, say .9 BTC
My point is that it encourages hoarding, why buy things now that will be cheaper tomorrow?
This is not necessarily bad, the planet will love it, but it won’t solve issues of inequality.
There’s a lot to like about bitcoin but I can’t get past this. I like strong money, I’d love to see the FED keep rates high. But deflation is uglier than inflation.
I welcome any links to articles on deflation and debt in a world with a fixed currency like bitcoin

I’m still stuck on deflation, sorry. In a world based on BTC, how does borrowing work? If the bitcoin that is owed is only ever more valuable would the interest rate have to be negative? Or at least less than it would be in a fiat world with inflation?

Hi Matt, welcome! Love your work, good to see an honest man doing his best to speak the truth.

Same here, I pay a lot of taxes and would much prefer they go to healthcare for vets rather than bailouts for VCs in silicon valley who are too stupid to mange their cash properly

I don’t think I said that? I said the internet could fragment, to some extent it already has in China.
I been studying BTC for six years, perhaps I’m too slow but I still see no reason to own it, sorry :) The energy doesn’t bother me it’s the whole trustless thing. Money requires trust by definition.
A totally deflationary currency means folks like me, who save a lot, would end up with all the coins :)
No one backs it and it depends on state laws to protect it as property.
It seems to have zero value as money, except in international transfers where it allows folks to escape the predators in the banks.
Owning it only seems worth it to sell to a greater fool. It’s still in the inflationary phase, which allows the greater fool game to continue. Long term it could be like gold and other real things like violins, except you can’t play it. It’s just another number on the number line.
I appreciate your work and enjoy your essays. I’ve learned from them. As an investor I should hold some as the prudent thing, I just can’t get there yet.

I kind of believe that, as one of these ERE types, but time and chance happen to us all, how is debt managed and restructured in a world with deflationary money?

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the deflationary aspects if BTC

Great article on the Fed, curious where you see the terminal rate this time. I’m not convinced it’s not going to plateau and then need to rise further. Labor is strong, shrinking worker pool, etc..
