Sometimes it's just another bitcoin dip 😅🤣🤣

“Societies with money of stable value generally develop a low time preference, learning to save and think of the future, while societies with high inflation and depreciating economies will develop high time preference as people lose track of the importance of saving” - Bitcoin Standard

Most bitcoiners have a low time preference (thinking long-term) by choosing savings over overconsumption 🤙

Bitcoin maximalism incentivises minimalism in most other area’s

That’s a great way of putting it 👌🏻

Your association of bitcoiners and minimalists is very interesting and has a strong ring of validity to it.

My wife says that bitcoiners are probably not consumerists because if they were they wouldn't have any Bitcoin left. That could lend some Credence to your bitcoiner, minimalist theory.

I personally think that many bitcoiners have the Myers-Briggs ENTP personality type, or closely associated types like INTP or ENFP.
