Correlation is not causation. I would think an acceleration of debt, a stock market crash, collapsing edge countries, anything can tip it.

Unfortunately people are sheeple. Even Winston, in 1984, in the end gives up. Winston Smith, broken and compliant, experiencing a sense of victory over himself as he loves Big Brother, a final act of submission to the Party's control.

Well put. If the US will move first on Bitcoin, the probability of your scenario increases. If another large state moves first, competition will maintain decentralization and keep people’s escape options open, imo. And then, if the Bitcoin attributes survive, Bitcoin will ultimately lead to abundance.

I don’t think voting matters. They are all part of the same guild. The movie „Jones Plantation“ sums it up nicely. Also, H.L. Mencken explains why democracy is doomed in 10 points:
1. People don't want freedom but safety: "The average man wants the peace of a hog in a comfortable sty."
2. Democracy INTENSIFIES groupthink: "Democratic man is quite unable to think of himself as a free individual; he must belong to a group, or shake with fear and loneliness."
3. Democracies are plutocracies; they're run by the aristocracy of money. But the plutocracy "lacks all the essential characters of a true aristocracy: a clean tradition, culture, public spirit, honesty, honor, courage—above all, courage. It is transient and lacks a goal."
4. The plutocrats lack "an aristocratic disinterestedness born of aristocratic security." He submits. He can be bullied and broken.
5. Democracies birth their intellectual apologists - Mencken calls them "pedagogues." These are not genuine thinkers; they’re "men chiefly marked by their haunting fear of losing their jobs." This describes most journalists.
6. Democracy is anti-excellence. Freud said we repress our sex drive as it’s frowned upon...but there’s nothing that democracy frowns upon more than a CLEAR proof of superiority. Democracy says "the most worthy & laudable citizen is that one who is most like all the rest."
7. Mencken explains how this era demands we repress our greatness: "A man who has throttled a bad impulse has at least some consolation in his agonies. But a man who has throttled a good one is in a bad way indeed. Yet this great Republic swarms with such men, & their sufferings are under every eye."
8. Mencken on the two worst crimes in a democracy: "There is only one sound argument for democracy, and that is the argument that it is a crime for any man to hold himself out as better than other men, and, above all, a most heinous offense for him to prove it."
9. Mencken: "The democratic politician, confronted by the dishonesty and stupidity of his master, the mob, tries to convince himself and all the rest of us that it is really full of rectitude and wisdom." To gain power in a democracy, men sacrifice their self-respect...
10. Mencken believed democracy will cancel itself out: "Democracy may be a self-limiting disease, as civilization itself seems to be. There are thumping paradoxes in its philosophy, and some of them have a suicidal smack."

Couple of additions. “They” change the meaning of words, ala “1984,” to confuse us.
Newspeak was a language favored by the minions of Big Brother and, in Orwell's words, "designed to diminish the range of thought." Newspeak was characterized by the elimination or alteration of certain words, the substitution of one word for another, the interchangeability of parts of speech, and the creation of words for political purposes. The word has caught on in general use to refer to confusing or deceptive bureaucratic jargon.
Inflation is the increase in money supply, not the subsequent nominal price increase. That’s why, albeit manipulated, the CPI is actually the Consumer Price Index.
Inflation in a debt based system is simply increase in total debt. Government, State and Local, business and private. Currently $80 trillion in the US. So, rate of inflation would technically be the rate of increase in debt. Looking at their own data (see below) debt has doubled over the last 15 years.
Now, we also have productivity increases due to innovation and technological advances. Let’s say you go to McDonalds, there used to be three employees taking orders. Now there are three iPads. So the price of your burger should go down. Some literature estimates the productivity increases at 6-8% per year since ww2.
So “they” are really stealing your tax rate, let’s say 29%, plus productivity, 7%, plus real inflation, 7%. And yes, compound that every year. Crazy.
The CPI is meaningless, as it swaps out good quality goods for bad ones, reflects only delayed trickle down price effects of inflation and doesn’t include productivity increases.
It’s far worse than you describe. And believe it, “them” using the term inflation for everything confuses everyone on purpose.
That’s why everything has gone to 💩. See pics :) https://image.nostr.build/88f498b69a0f3fbc2a168a4d0f449edefe1effc919f4cf69e9f55569a02a1430.jpg https://image.nostr.build/33641055ace9ff2b3b8c8cdcdaae51542a1d7f59aa2c9a6e6910906eb6dd1d95.jpg

To guess the number to win a block you need computing power. Centralized miners have a lot of computing power, a big computer in essence. A solo miner is a small computer. A lot of small decentralized computers add up to a lot of computing power to compete with centralized miners to win blocks.

#Bitcoin will not succeed if it doesn’t become a broadly used MoE soon. Because it needs to be highly distributed and not highly concentrated. Being concentrated in ETFs, strategic reserves and corporations allows it to be diluted through futures, derivatives and fractional reserves and hence also lose its SoV by essentially inflating it. Cornering Bitcoin as a SoV is an attack vector.

My feeling is that at USD $100k, #Bitcoin will start accelerating to infinity vs the USD. (Midpoint in the graph below).

Well said. And what will communities look like? In the vein of decentralization, we may end up moving toward small communities, tribes (or some #Bit coiners refer to them as citadels) of like minded peoples in the pursuit of their happiness.
Which led me to look at how American Indians organized. They seemed to, within their tribes, live so harmoniously amongst themselves and with nature.
American Indians organized many decisions around family units and tribal councils. One way to illustrate how it works is to look how American Indians disincentivized bad behavior.
Now probably the first thing to know about Native American history is that there was very little crime. Perhaps crime and punishment go with Western Industrial-type nations. Historically, travelers to the outermost regions of Native America commented on how honest and how little crime existed.
So what did they do if one of their own committed a “crime”?
Firstly, tgere were no jails. Secondly, while all tribes were different, in matters of severe offenses, the family or the clan usually dealt with the offender. Often the person guilty of the crime was “sentenced” to go away from the tribe and try to make it on his own — which in the long ago past, was almost a testiment to a death sentence. In the Lakota tribe there is a reference in the book, WATER LILY, about the offender having to make restitution with the family by taking a role in the family. Usually such people were so happy to not be put out of the tribe, that they became the best family members of all. Imagine if this were so in our society today? That the offender had to make restitution with the family for his acts? What do you think might be the result? Less crime, perhaps?
In the Creek society, as well as the Blackfeet, the crime of adultery (for women only) was a cut off nose — the tip of the nose. This was usually performed at the request of the offending husband and was done by the society that he belonged to.
As far as stealing is concerned, it was almost unheard of. George Catlin remarked that in all his travels in Native America he had never had one single thing taken from him, or even a hand lifted against him. In truth, one young man made quite a journey to join Catlin in order to return to him some of his property. However, if stealing had been done, the offending party again made restitution with the “victim” by supplying them with whatever they needed in return. Seems a much simplier process, doesn’t it? Make up the damage one has done to the person who has been harmed, himself.
Besides almost non-existent crime, there was also no poverty. Some people were more prosperous than others — such has always been the case amongst a people. But noone went hungry when there was food to be had within the tribe, nor did anyone go without.
And if a culture is known by its humanity towards others and the material condition of its people, then I would have to say that American Indians were, indeed, a culture to be proud.
#Bitcoin . Fix the money, fix the world.
#Bitcoin . It’s the only chance we have.

A couple of thoughts on democracy:
1. There’s no way to corroborate your vote, so the outcome is not related to your vote
2. My (or Mencken’s really), on why democracy doesn’t work, from a previous post below.
3. But, specifically re Referrenda. The masses are easily manipulated and exhibit a dangerous mob mentality. Neil Oliver’s example of the tyranny of the masses is a good illustration of it. He didn’t want to wear a mask in a plane, as we all know, these masks didn’t work…
4. ….”I'm not a slave. Yeah, I'm <not going to wear one>. But then you turn right down into the body of the plane and be 299 people with face masks on, glaring, glaring at me. And I would think it's this close. If If someone gave the signal to, Let's pin this guy down in the aisle. Let's eat him. Yeah.

Central planners are currently confusing everyone, keeping the #Bitcoin/USD exchange down by slushing Bitcoin around between Seized/ETFs/Tether/Futures. Essentially buying and selling to themselves at manipulated prices. Propping up the USD, allowing them to back fill losses with minimally printed money. To avoid a rapid collapse of the system.

Or could it be the government slushing around #Bitcoin between seized funds, tether, etfs, futures, etc?

This can go on for quite some time. Between futures, etfs, seized BTC, Tether etc, they can buy and sell to themselves, making up potential losses by printing a little bit of money. A strategic reserve would make it even easier. At the same time, have Tucker and Snowden spread privacy FUD and all the other attack vectors…

Of course, you’re missing, household, state and local, business debt.

You don’t have to put the word biological in front of the gender. It’s by definition. ;)

Did the US end up with this scenario by sheer luck? Because, if Russia and China had bought all the #Bitcoin they could have over the last 10+ years, the jig would have been up for the US. They could have induced a collapse. So are they stupid, or in on it?

Firstly, in the debt based fiat system, one doesn’t need taxes, since the central government can just “print” the money (I.e. issue the additional debt). So taxes are just an additional lever to keep you “enslaved,” whilst productive.
Secondly, under a #Bitcoin standard, ironically, communities do need to pool their money for community services. Since it’s very painful though, communities will need to make tough choices as to what to spend their money on. The original US system was set up to make those decisions from the bottom up with sovereignty in decreasing order: family, community, city, county, state and federal. Of course, corruption has inverted that…
