On a somewhat related note:

I'm lowkey starting to think that understanding Praxeology is a prerequisite for anyone to truly understand what 'freedom', 'capital' or 'liberty' means, and advocate effectively for the same.

I think those who dismiss or ignore it can easily come to conclusions that are anti-thetical to those three. Maybe even inevitable that they do so.

Doesn’t rothbard talk about praxeology or is it mostly Mises? I don’t think Saylor can understand it as long as he is incentivized to support the state.

Nah, my comment didn't really have much to do with Saylor tbf.

I just had a random thought and wrote it as a reply to you 😂

You might be right about him. I neither love nor hate Saylor though. His knowledge about capital markets and corporate finance and Bitcoin's role in them is def something I value. His opinions on politics and economics, not so much.

Idk what the status of that subject was before that, but Mises systematically elaborated about Praxeology in Human Action at length. I'm reading that book very slowly. It's wonderful.

I hear Rothbard's 'Man, Economy and State' and 'Logic of Action' are essential reads on the subject. On my list.

Hoppe's 'Economics science and the Austrian method' blew my mind.

These 4 books I would say are good places to look.

P.S. Praxeology is easily the best thing I've discovered during my Bitcoin journey so far. Super fun to learn about.

I need to finish human action and for a new liberty

Yessirrr
