*anything* standard requires trust, which no government has. It has to be implemented by fiat.

Circular economy in bitcoin is possible but it’s a long road.

All currencies are digital now. Gold bugs excited about BRICS and bearish on BTC don't understand this yet.

Bitcoin is a better gold than gold ever was. Poor bastards can't see it.

It’s ok, it’ll be tokenized IOU based on chinas holdings and they’re like really trustworthy or something like that
