Removing all my Taleb literature from the book shelf was the right decision. NNT neither understands what makes #bitcoin different from crypto nor does he understand the Federal Reserve system which is not federal and has no reserves! https://nostr.build/av/1bdb89d701bd9836f130728f7c49a36dd53c601ad183f2602356c6add1bd89ed.mov
Discussion
Separate the thoughts from the “writer” because there’s almost zero chance he wrote them himself or at least without help. Can’t say I agree with the authors of a lot of good books I’ve read. That being said, Taleb is a retard.
His books were either ghost written or he is a pedo & being blackmailed or something. No one actually thinks the Fed is transparent, so he is lying for some reason.
Taleb’s ignorance is truly in a class of its own.
Cause we're swimming in transparency from the current system.
#bitcoin
He likely sold his stack after covid and is now on a crusade. Like others said, perhaps he is under blackmail. He understands nothing about #bitcoin, got in bed with CSW shilling for BSV, and constantly conflates bitcoin with "crypto."
Recently re-read Anti-Fragile and it still slays. How could that author and this man be the same person? The mind boggles.
