If man has created something scarce and valuable, you just know they will start wars over it.

They have started wars for far less.

You can't kill a ghost.

Why would anyone try to kill a ghost?

My point :)

Well Ukrainians killed thousands north Koreans that were not there at all and they tried hard πŸ˜€. So... some people try to kill ghosts indeed πŸ˜€

πŸ˜„ Maybe I'd like to meet these ghosts and have a chance at it too.

Can they fight over #bitcoin πŸ€”

Probably. There is already infighting within the greater crypto community. lol

what if we create something war can't take

Then it must be the thing that fuels the war.

the disparity between the haves & the most worries me greatly

It is and we all should be. But prosperity has consequences.

While that's true, I don't think it would be a kinetic war, what would be the point? Have you ever ready Soft War by Major Jason Lowery?

the no bitcoiners started the war with the bitcoiners

it's an ongoing war until the no bitcoiners surrender

Yes and then the cycle continues.

All wars are Banker wars

In the future, it'll be Coinbase wars. lol

Persacly. Banker wars

#BTC is the first ever bearer instrument/bond there have already been early bitcoiners extorted and some very suspicious deaths.

A bearer instrument/bond is a scary thing. Keep your stack secret (possibly even from your spouse and kids… they will find out in due time)

Think why tontines were outlawed!

Why tontines were outlawed

Tontines were outlawed due to financial corruption and moral objections

Some objected to the gambling and morbid nature of tontines

Really people were being killed across Europe for the prize.

Stay Humble Stay Safe

Stack of what?

Sats

Nah, you've lost me

Usage In context:

Money, get back

I'm alright, Jack, keep your hands off of my stack

Money, it's a hit

Ah, don't give me that do-goody-good bullshit

I'm in the high-fidelity first-class traveling set

And I think I need a Learjet

And you know why right?

Ehh.. people just peopleing. As per usual.

πŸ˜‚ that sounds like a cop out

πŸ˜„ I find it to be true nonetheless. I am unbothered by any detailed reasoning.

Yes there is often much noise in detailed reasoning.

The vast majority of wars are funded by money printing. Weimar in WW2, etc. They would mix other metals with the gold coins, clip off the edges, etc.

Bitcoin fixes at least 50% of anything money touches. Including wars. If people actually knew the real cost of war, they would correctly identify their own government as the enemy.

I very much like that 50% chance. But I don't make bets in human nature for that reason. People are capable of doing good just as much as the bad. I would like to live long enough to see how that goes though.
