Oh, I do pay attention. I am educating myself to become a more self-sustainable person. I just stopped trying to orange pill people, for example. I stopped "writing to my congressmen". The average person is too uninterested in anything other than their immediate needs, and will be caught completely unprepared for a sovereign debt default.
In any event, I remain incredibly bullish when it comes to bitcoin, but yeah, I doubt I will get to witness the hyperbitcoinized future you mention.
Love the podcast btw, felt great listening to Ken Berry.
