I got to sound money via Austrian economics (formal in university) but I never bought gold bc the upside always seemed too limited to care. Then bitcoin became attractive and I never really stopped thinking about it since. It’s great to see it go mainstream. The conviction paid off. Everyone else was wrong, I was right.

The hilarious part is ppl still don’t think it’s mainstream yet. They STILL don’t see it. As obvious as it is now with the likes of blackrock involved now 😂
Orange pillers like to gaslight or create their own history, but pretty much everyone I ever tried to discuss bitcoin with irl got it completely wrong and is probably super bitter now knowing it is at $43k. It’s like slumdog millionaire, unless you experienced certain life events and subjects, bitcoin is simply not going to click. Not until it is mainstream.
Bitcoin and vaccines are the two topics that normies simply butchered, and now they must pay the price. I tried to save them.
Strange times tho indeed. 6 figure btc around the corner, and once we hit $1m, that’s when the rocket ship takes off with binary exponential math. Just as normies are having “mild heart attacks” in their 20s.
💯
Most of my coworkers are engineers and still oblivious about it, except for a guy in Sales
Got in on sound money reading boomers like Jim Rickards on Gold. Currency wars 2011, Death of Money 2014. Good on problem, missed the boat on solution lol.
Saife put the nail in the coffin for gold, slow and steady but monetary demand will only drop long term.
Exactly. I almost feel bad for gold bugs bc they got it mostly right lol
My econ profs were gold bugs too and they were against btc if they heard of it at all. I bet they are salty now like Peter schiff
This is the thread I was looking for where I challenged the op mantra about schiff nostr:nevent1qqsv64xtgarj6kyk38ur5y6c6vmjf8px7wd22e6qg5zafm2exn068vspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dsqscamnwvaz7tmzwf3zu6t0qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgxjdsnt
