Money can now travel at the speed of light, but understanding doesn’t. It took me two years of intense studying, reading, and soul searching to finally get a grasp. And there is so much more to learn.
The Austrian economist don’t all get it either m, because in their framework money must start as a useful commodity. Like gold. ₿itcoin is ONLY money. No other use at all. So even they don’t get it, because tgey ate missing the technology, cryptography, game theory components.
Yes, I also listened to Breedlove & Boyapati today. But the other day I listened to WBD Live in Miami with Lyn Alden & Jeff Snider and Jeff argues that an elastic money supply is better. I guess there are arguments to be made why that's true, but my main objection is that you always need an entity that controls the money. And we know how well that works. I was thinking about a theoretical option, which would be total surveillance of every aspect of our economic life and an AI managing the money supply. Which is obviously bullshit in a lot of ways. So the only way, in my opinion, is to have a fixed supply that nobody can mess with, just from looking at it from that angel.
At a certain point it’s just mental masterbation. I watched Lyn and Jeff too. They’re knowledgeable, but it’s archaic knowledge. Overly complex.
The CCP says we are all going to die with a fixed supply. 🤣
