agreed but nothing like a live demonstration right?

bitcoin lets you have a bubble of hard money economy and when everything else is failing we are all building our citadels and hiring our private security to patrol the borders of our villages and they'll get it

Well, I guess so, but I can at least inform other Christians that this sort of thing was eschewed for most of our history, even if it isn't considered outright sinful, for good reason.

It's the easiest way to make money, once you figure out how to privatize your gains and socialize your losses. Just need some clever AI crunching the numbers.

And they always figure out a way, in the mid-term. And then you have sunk costs and rigid structures and just sit there, watching everything collapse in slow-motion and wondering what happened. Bitcoin would just speed up the collapse.

this is what i mean when i say there's no point in participating in the rigged game of democracy

the game has been long utterly controlled by the plutocrats who own the banks who pay the government to make the rules suit them

the sooner atlas shrugs the sooner the world has to deal with its sins

Christians used to get their interest-bearing full-recourse loans from the Jews and then they would just murder the Jews or run them out of town, when they got tired of paying them back. It was a whole, macabre economic cycle.

Let's just not do that, this time. 😅 🤷‍♀️ Just save up and pay for the stuff you want and stop pulling consumption forward.
