I queried the Googles:
Q: Did Shakespeare use #bitcoin?
A: Shakespeare did not use Bitcoin. In fact, Bitcoin did not exist until more than 400 years after Shakespeare’s time. Shakespeare lived from 1564 to 1616, and Bitcoin was created in 2009.
Clearly a misinterpretation of the facts.
#Bitcoin is a seedling.
A pessimist sees a seedling and compares it to a tree.
Saying the seedling doesn’t stand a chance and ridicules its future.
An optimist sees a seedling and compares it to a tree.
Saying the seedling stands a chance and participates in its future.
STAY AWAY FROM PESSIMISTS

"Then 2008 happened. They bailed out those banks and I was pissed off! I said, 'They're going to debase the money.' It started off as just a TARP, then it went to QE1 and QE2 and...with zero percent interest.
"The Fed balance sheet was 800 billion and it went to 1.5 trillion. I freaked out!
"These savings I got, they're going to get debased. I'm not going to have a good retirement if they get debased!
"So I got radicalized for sound money. What drove Satoshi to write the #Bitcoin White paper was also what drove me to pivot my business."
- Lawrence Lepard
For me, mechanical vs robotic is my grandpa’s 1970s hand-crank mechanical drill vs my brother’s 2024 electric power drill.
And nowadays, robots have built-in power everything.
Gold: inflationary, but only a wee bit each year. Like, 1-2%.
U.S. dollar: holy fuck, like a shit-ton pumped into the economy during COVID. Like, goddamn 😂 And now we got trillion-dollar spend bills. SMH
#Bitcoin: muthafuckin’ deflationary. And, a wee bit more deflationary every 4 years.
First time compiling all of what I’ve learned from various Bitcoin peeps over the years. h/t nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe for the proper view on technology.
Technology increases productivity, which reduces the cost of products and services to their marginal cost of production.
Fiat inflation: increased money supply leads to inflation which leads to increased prices which fucks with citizen's savings and purchasing power.
Technology is deflationary.
Fiat is inflationary
#Bitcoin: Supply cap of 2.1 quadrillion satoshi. And as of April 19, 2024, has a lower inflation rate (supply issuance) than gold - making Bitcoin harder money than gold. (Gold inflation rate ~2% per year; Bitcoin inflation rate ~0.8% for the next 4 years/210,000 blocks).
Bitcoin follows a specific issuance, which decreases ~every 4 years, leading to an eventual supply issuance of zero. Leading to a 100% deflationary asset.
Government fiat does NOT follow a specific issuance, suffers from deficit spending and bank loans, leading to ever-increasing inflation.
Putting it all together:
Technology increases productivity, which lowers cost of goods to their marginal cost of production.
Fiat economies suffer from inflation, that fucks over citizen's savings and purchasing power.
Bitcoin is deflationary, protecting citizen's savings and purchasing power.
