Reading "The Forth Turning" right now, and throwing questions to ChatGPTo all day. brought up the US election as a possible crescendo of the Crisis-period we are in now according to the books framework, and got a response where a Trump outcome could highten crises whereas a Harris could bring a resolution.

Asked for a steelman of Trump and added the possible Bitcoin angle to his agenda and got a long really well stated response ending in this summary:

"In a Fourth Turning framework, Trump’s support for Bitcoin could indeed be seen as a radical but necessary response to the U.S.’s financial crisis. If managed well, this stance could promote individual financial empowerment, strengthen the U.S.’s role in the digital economy, and provide a path toward disciplined, sustainable monetary policy—addressing core crises of debt, inflation, and institutional distrust. This bold move would align with the Fourth Turning’s call for transformative leadership and systemic renewal, setting the stage for a new age of financial stability."

Imagine that. Sound money game theory with #bitcoin, set in motion by a Boomer Prophet, with technology developed by what's likely a Gen-X Nomad in Satoshi and fought for through the crisis by Millenial Heroes...

I also thought that Bitcoin could be seen as something to eventually take us out of the crisis, and it's development as possibly being by a millennial. Gen x makes sense though too. But even if not created by a millennial, that generation is the adoption driver, so that view males sense to me. I still think war is on the way but Bitcoin will carry through and bring the high at least.
