Digital Gold was so good. So funny that Popper hates bitcoin now

HODL 2y ago

Funny how that works. Popper failed to buy bitcoin at $200 because of “journalistic integrity” and now he writes articles like is bitcoin racist? Lol 😂 guys a fuckin loser. Book is good though.

Rene Girard! Have you read Luke Burgis at all? He’s a massive Girard fan.

I haven’t. What should I start with of his?

Wanting

Ok I’ll pick up a copy

It’s a fantastic book. He does a great job combining all of Girard’s thoughts and presenting a unified idea of mimetic desire. I recommend that book to people all the time.
