What a story

Most ppl around the world can’t begin to think this could ever happen to them, they think they’re immune from this

Moving your entire life, uprooting your family, basically escaping!

Thank you for sharing this πŸ’œπŸ™

BIBBITY BOBBITY BOO

see the authorities can’t censor me

I suspect yes

Zimbabwe has legendary stories about hyperinflation

If I may ask, did you experience that in your real life?

the slow deliberate creep of government control continues

my favorite non KYC #bitcoin ATM suddenly requires an ID scan

no problem- innovation creates more ways to buy, around the world, without KYC, online

so, members of all manner of 3 letter agencies may kindly GFY..I’ll find another way

To be clear, we had a bimetallic standard, silver was then replaced by paper gold, and the state then seized the remaining stock of privately held gold. It's hard to say that gold won, except from the perspective of the state.

I mostly agree with you. Solving the Byzantine Generals problem is even more momentous than I think many of us realize. PoS does not even compare. That said, I do believe that there can be more than one implementation of Bitcoin with atomic swaps between them. This is a similar notion to the bimetallic standard.

Money does have a tendency to converge on a single network, but this effect is much weaker than it is for communication networks.

The convergence tendency is counterbalanced by the utility threshold.

Agree πŸ’― with all you said here

Was generalizing when I said gold won - should have said β€˜gold won the game until central banks were invented’

When society learned how to make paper IOUs out of it, and ppl trusted that, was beginning of end for gold

Gold is basically fiat now because of this financialization

IOW the inception of central banks destroyed the beauty and elegance of metal coinage

Appreciate all the information you’ve posted here I’ll dig into it!
