How to know if you're ready for "all your models (narratives) will be broken:"
Can you explain Bitcoin without mentioning economics or money?
Discussion
I don't think it's possible
Bitcoin is money
It was hard for me as well to grasp how Jason Lowery intends to apply ₿itcoin for warfighting, but reading his book reminded me of the works of Daniel Quinn, and there are so many premonitions of coming changes in his works from before the release of bitcoin.
It's interesting to note how much he (Quinn) was predicting the emergence of ₿itcoin without even knowing it.
Don't make fun of me
Idk who those people are..... 🥺
No one's making fun of you.
It's my fault for making the assumption that you might know who wrote Softwar (Jason Lowery).
And his book made me think of another author who has nothing at all to do with bitcoin, and whose work precedes bitcoin, but whose writing summons the spirit of bitcoin, and although you haven't heard of Daniel Quinn, it's possible you might enjoy reading his works. Just wanted to share that insight.
Making fun of people is not my thing 🙂
I guess I should check it out later
I'll have to look into Quinn's works. Thanks.
What kind of premonitions of his came to mind?
Here's one excerpt from one of his books:
This is another of my recent notes talking about it, meatier than the other:
Here's one more, about his novel "The Story of B"
But it needs to be updated to "The Story of ₿"
But most of all, it was Lowery's extensive discussion of power projection that reminded me of Quinn. Quinn talks a lot about it, too.
Much of his work also has a bit of a Malthusian bent, which many people don't like, but overall it's really worth exploring from a ₿itcoiner's perspective IMO, especially for those who found Softwar worth reading.
