imo Bitcoin will always gain purchasing power in a Capitalistic environment. Accumulative efficiency of resource usage will drive the cost of production down. Without an inflationary storage of value/medium of exchange/unit of account, prices will be pressured to go down in a continually competitive environment.
Regardless if Bitcoin continues to go up in "Fiat" terms, it is going up in purchasing power for market goods.
This is very much similar to the Jeff Booth "Price of Tomorrow" perspective. (I still need to read the book)

Watching the Andrew Wilson v. Dave Smith debate on Libertarian vs. Christian Populism.
Its interesting, Dave came in and should have asked for a conversation.
Andrew Wilson is keeping with a "Libertine" perspective of Libertarianism. I'd never debate since I'd rather not conversate as adversaries.
AnCap is a LEGAL SYSTEM, not a MORAL SYSTEM. Self Ownership is not a Moral axiom, its a Legal Axiom.
Laws are necessary when living in a world of scarce resources, so we need Laws, but to equate legal with moral is absurd.
I'm a fan of both of them, they both forgot that Debates are not suppose to be to convince the opposing debater. This would have been better as a conversation.

Had a couple major life changes during Lockdowns in 2020, was Agnostic while favoring Christian Ethics and Traditions. I finally found God during that time.
It was a weird position for me to be as an "Absurdist Christian" before the breakthrough.
That and finding Austrian Economics, while at my first job after graduating college. I'd been interested in Liberty and Justice, relating to Economics/Politics, as early as High School.
I lived the experience of only having done Geometry, at the time, and thinking "you can't spend more than you make, accounting is a thing"

The other side of the spectrum, Libertarians also Love providing value to others. Care about their Communities, and are not "individualists" in the sense that they cannot belong to Groups.
I do forget that there are Libertarians/Anarchists that do not come from the Austrian Economics camp lol

Agreed, Labor costs are the last to go up during money manipulation and wage earners can cause price deflation through saving/investing or not having disposable income. The BNPL lines of credit will be interesting.
Agreed on the Mass Immigration as well. Wouldn't be much of a problem if there wasn't a Monopolization in Security or the Legal System.

As an Economically literate employee, I never asked for a pay raise unless I know I'm adding an asymmetrical amount of value to the employer.
The other side of that coin is, Employers are not on the hook for increasing pay to Employees to counteract price inflation. It would be nice if they did account for price inflation, they're not Evil for not doing it.
Financial Literacy is something everybody needs to know, we all sell our Labor for Money. Its sad seeing Good people pay the price for Ignorant/Evil Money Manipulators doing their thing.

Morality is a question of whether or not something "should" be done.
Its fine to say something is valuable and "this is how something gets done". Those are evaluations of Economic Value. Economic Value is Subjective Truth, Morality is Objective Truth. There is a difference.
NAP and any other relativistic moral perspective cannot say something "should" be the case just by itself, due to its lack of absolute Moral Truth.
I agree NAP is how Prosperity comes about due to greater production than consumption, purely from not taking other people's stuff. Being a productive person does not mean they are a Moral person.
Just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should do it. AnCap is a Legal framework that requires a Moral framework to underpin it, otherwise its merely "I prefer this rather than that"
Objectivity != Observable
Legality != Morality

As long as I can remember, she has always used the same electric rice pot. I asked her about the rice water boiling over and she gave me a weird look, like I insulted her lol
To be clear, she was in a rural village that resided in what is now North Korea. She fled the Korean War, going south. To my best understanding, my Grandpa courted her while he was stationed there during the war.
His superior didn't like that, sent him stateside, they sent letters to each other for idk how long. Next time he went to Korea was to bring her home with him.

The NAP runs into problems by itself in a relativistic worldview, since "why" should we be non-aggressive towards others?

I'm not saying Axioms by themselves are illogical. Moral axioms cannot be derived from observables, thats all.

Having a Value Axiom proves that the conclusion is NOT an "objective moral value"

I'm no Theologian or Philosopher, but I'll try to contribute.
The Christian Moral Perspective is one of the few Worldviews that can justify an absolute claim on Morality, declaring what is "right" and "wrong"
Relativism or Consequentialism or Utilitarianism cannot deny the assertions of Christianity due to the internal logic of their worldviews. They cannot even admit that their own systems are "morally correct" because its all dependent on context.
This will spiral into Metaethics, which a lot of individuals dismiss as "playing with semantics". This is funny considering semantics is important to any discussion.
