Real estate has become a store of value because there was no good alternative. Real estate has a primary function (dwelling) that has to compete with the store of value function, which is the reason we have this asymmetry. #Bitcoin will replace this store of value function so that real estate costs can represent its proper function again.

My man is Dedicated to knowing things.

I would add The Creature from Jeckyll Island to that excellent list.

I started Human Action, but got exhausted. The rest I did not read and probably never will. So you are obviously much smarter. Still, if there is free will, and randomness, and complexity, nobody can know for certain, what will happen. Or when it will. Let’s just hope, you and all that authors are right.
