What's you preferred alternative?
"As we saw in the Panama papers, rich people will go through a LOT more trouble to preserve their wealth than self custody Bitcoin." - nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx
I know what will happen. Notes will be transmitted by relays. Other stuff, too.
"The obsession with consumer payments in the Bitcoin community is an unfortunate relic of the fiat money era. Generations that have only known monetary hot potatoes that need to be spent before they devalue have come to view life as a quest of mass consumption." — Saifedean Ammous
If R > G then do we need a global wealth tax?
I'm reading Praxeology by nostr:npub1jt97tpsul3fp8hvf7zn0vzzysmu9umcrel4hpgflg4vnsytyxwuqt8la9y
I'm not far enough into it but so far it seems like a great introduction.
I never saw or even heard of a cop enforcing mask mandates. (Maybe this is a South OC thing.)
If an entire department refused to comply, they could keep their jobs. Entire states would refuse to comply.
How many American cops would comply with an order to take all the guns?
I can imagine anywhere from 30 to 60 percent. What do you think?
And then how many of the other cops would turn against them? Cop v Cop civil war? Would the military get involved?
That could get pretty gnarly. It would make a good movie.
I never use global on Nostr, but I was looking at Mastodon a few months ago and woooooo boy, it is cringe over there
I know that feeling
All instruments are like this. I can't imagine the prices for pianos, but guitars and basses have exploded in price.
I hope this doesn't make you cringe, but I'm sure glad I picked up an $89 Yamaha keyboard all those years ago. 😂
My family does have a grand piano. It might end up in my Bitcoin citadel after hyperbitcoinization. Maybe someday you can come tune it for me.
Depends. I think for most pre-hyperbitcoinization Bitcoiners it's like a 2010 Toyota Carolla, or American HODL's moped. If you need to haul stuff then maybe an old pickup truck.
If GM had to make the best new car for Bitcoiners now, they would first have to stop begging from the government and start participating in the open market like the rest of us.
Maybe if there is a trade-off between emissions and efficiency, they could increase emissions.
Yeah General Motors really should make a car for Bitcoiners
