only Bitcoin maxis would call basic and commonsensical economic theory "dishonest argumentation to attack and discredit"

people delay spending in deflationary environments. period.

Bitcoin maxis talk about SoV all fucking day ffs.

hodlers are disincentivized to spend because someday it will be "generational wealth."

its fucking obvious and talked about all the time.

What about bitcoin do you like?

I like that its protected by a godawful amount of kwH

definitely a perk

I buy diepers for my babies with bitcoin 😂

It's net inflow being higher that matters.

exactly

this is a great example

in a deflationary economy

the 20000 sat transaction for food still happens

but the 5400000000 sat purchase for a home is deferred

It's not differed if you got no place to live in, it's differed if you want to buy a second flat in Manhattan

as I keep telling you

its a spectrum

in a deflationary environment why buy a house when you can rent?

houses just get cheaper anyway

why invest capital in starting a business?

that money gets more valuable anyway.

theres absolutely no reason to believe that a fixed number of monetary units results in some magical Goldilocks zone where only degen super risky investments are discouraged.

yes all of that is wiped out and that's a good thing.

this is a standard revolutionary problem where the rebels impose their own insane policies because they're highly triggered by the excesses of the legacy system.
