Everything is relative. 🧔

Thankfully not as bad as this spill…

After the 'blowout' jobs report today, here's my periodic reminder that full employment statistics were commonplace in the run-up to one of the more famous inflationary episodes in history... the unemployment rate was low and *dropping* from 1920-1922 in Germany.

Carry on... nothing to see here.... šŸ‡¦šŸ‡·

One of the more fun metrics I've been looking at lately.... US Government Debt-to-GDP ratio multiplied by the US Treasury 10Y yield. This really makes clear the historical dislocation that's underway.

So, about year from now you’ll be sailing around the world.

Now that we're back to bouncing around $26k, we need a new worthwhile controversy to pass the time... last time was stainless vs. cast iron. This time it's nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a 's new book:

hardcover vs. softcover.

Which side are you on and why?

Ready. Set. Go.

Amazon delivery today. Sorry, nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a … quite the combo!

Can’t wait to get startedā€¦šŸ§”

Boom. My new book, Broken Money, is now available on Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CG83QBJ6

I will formally announce it later today, so I guess this is the initial Nostr exclusive. It’s not even searchable on Amazon yet since it is still being incorporated into their wider database. But if you have that link, it is ready for purchase.

The ebook, audiobook, and other print distribution partners will be rolled out over time.

Thank you everyone for your support! This has been a wonderful project to work on, and it will hopefully educate more people about the current problems in the global monetary system and the solutions that Bitcoin has to offer people around the world.

Congratulations, Lyn. I've never been so trigger happy to order a book, or anything really. Looking forward to it. Now go enjoy Egypt!

It’s funny, because the author makes the case for a lottery based system that is fair to all participants… which kind of sounds like he’s describing something in the ballpark of a proof of work consensus mechanism…. If only he were talking about a global monetary system, he would make sense….

Just putting this here as a sign post...
