VIDEO: Liberal Democrat Roland Martin was caught by viewers with an explicit video of a naked man on his laptop while trying to make a point about Kamala Harrisโs latest interview. #rolandmartin #democrat #kamalaharris https://video.nostr.build/6864eabcfc1841324b0e11c3730d95ca6536cb5d5e2127a3fb668ed05dd5c427.mp4

I actually kind of love the fact that the identity of the RNC is becoming the center left of 4-8 years ago. Like the Republican primaries four years from now could be between RFK, Tulsi and Vivake. Crazy.
Enjoy the latest Tulsi CNN interview ๐
It seems like everyone has a different definition of inflation these days. I'm just saying that the supply is literally expanding (inflating). The reason for the expansion is not part of the definition.
It also has 100% buy in and everyone even agrees with how to spend it and who gets the new supply. Very different from fiat.
But my point was that Bitcoin supply inflation is NOT theft, because we all agree.
There are contractions in fiat monetary supply, but they are always so painful that they have to print to stave off total economic collapse.
If the block subsidy isn't inflationary, then the market wouldn't react when it gets cut in half... i.e., the halvings are not priced in.
It's subsidizing miners who put downward pressure on the price when they sell newly minted coins to cover cost. It's penalizing hodlers to prop up miners.
But it's also exponentially decreasing over time and there is 100% buy in from all market participants. So it's a lot different than fiat monetary expansion.
If inflation is taxation, and taxation is theft, is the Bitcoin supply inflation that will exist until 2140 (block subsidy) theft?
No. Because the inflation of the Bitcoin issuance schedule is understood and agreed to by all those who voluntarily participate in the network. Thus, not theft because we all agree with how newly minted Bitcoin will be used (subsidize miners) and it's is distributed via proof of work.

Grassroots adoption of technologies like Bitcoin and nostr require IRL connections IMHO.
Find the Bitcoiners in your local community and start figuring out how to educate and help others in your area.
Next Western Mass Bitcoin Meetup is on September 15th at 6pm at Peppa's Pizza in East Longmeadow.

Back from a week in Montana ๐







I'll keep an eye out for it ๐
People say you'll look back and miss these days, but it's not true. I don't miss those days.
For my kids the days I look back and really miss were approximately ages 2-4. Don't worry though, it's all about that proof of work with the little ones that makes those years the actual best.
As a dad of kids that aren't so young anymore (13, 11 & 7) I've learned that malicious or not kids get hurt and some kids are ass holes.
It gets easier as they get older, but you gotta take it up with your kids, not other peoples kids. Kid gets hurt, make it a teaching moment for them.
