Bullish on bitcoin.

Bearish on the extent to which human nature can be reformed by bitcoin alone, even after hyperbitcoinization and restructuring of global government, the rise of sovereign individuals and the convergence of low time preference activities with great technology advances.

People are still people, and better incentives don't fully address the human condition.

Yes it's gonna be better than today, so we're optimistically obliged to participate. But it's hardly the golden age of transcendence that our souls have dreamed about for generations.

For a while I found some answers at the edge effect of bitcoin and the bible, especially those authors of thank god for bitcoin, who seemed to get this reality check. But apart from nostr:npub14f0xen78ed7rgvw39v82fwp7tv65yasz2gsgpf4gvxy4q5nlsydsk37k3l on here, that 'genre' seems really quiet again.

Sigh.

Fix the money

Slightly patch up the world

Sigh 😔

There are ongoing, systemic errors in thinking about and understanding the world that have become deeply embedded in the traditions of the church.

At least in the western, English speaking world, I attribute that mostly to corrupted translations of the bible:

Only God can fully fix the world. But as His images it’s our job to do our part towards that end. I’m willing to be surprised how far we get implementing His will, but it’ll need much more from us than solely supporting Bitcoin.

It sounds like you get this!

Just seeing your lovely comment now, thanks so much.🙏🏻🫂💜😄

(Notifications and placement of replies on Amethyst are very confusing; all too often, important things get buried.😢)

Bad translations and stubbornly encrusted church tradition have obscured the fact that King Jesus is gradually taking over the governance of the world, replacing all human governments with his Kingdom rule.

This is the most important topic I write about and the biblical teaching I promote.🙏🏻😆
