So if we are now at the late stage of interest rate manipulation causing easy money and mal investment that leads to recession, does this mean we are entering the stage of price ceilings which will cause scarcity? šŸ¤”

Just a thought

right so Friday is zapathon days. Mondays now appreciation day??? Seems reasonable considering many people don't like Mondays. Cheers them up!

Absolutely agree. There's a lot that could be done to reduce CO2 and I also saw my old man's ex build a prototype CO2 capture system using carbon as catalyst all the way back in early 2000s. We've moved on a lot from there with regards to this but point still stands, is it a good idea? I'm somewhat skeptical. Did you see the recent research paper on CO2 greenhouse effect saturation limit? Makes for interesting thoughts. If the greenhouse effect input of CO2 saturates below current levels, then there is literally no way that increasing CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere actually do anything at all other than nourish plants. That might explain why the planet was ok with CO2 levels hundreds of time higher than current concentrations. Obviously, that would then suggest that we should be happy to watch concentrations increase, preferably to a plant optimum which would help for trying to restore damaged ecosystems and regenerate soils, as well as increasing food supplies. That being the case, optimal range is 800-1200ppm which is 2-3x current levels. Hard to say with all the obfuscation but it could be we should be considering giving out fines to people doing sequestration to pay for the damage they are potentially causing???

Although it is a good question. It's obviously a little hard to truly understand the science as it has now been fully obfuscated by politics and money interests. However, we can be clear on a few things:

1: CO2 is a trailing indicator and the chances that its' concentration is truly impacting climate in any major way is negligible.

2: The increasing concentration is causing a greening of the planet as one would expect and we have bounced off a very dangerous minimum level.

3: If you can work though all the data and figure out what is real and it turns out the planet is truly heating a lot (not obvious to anyone who remembers the romans were making wine just south of hadrians wall!), then we don't truly understand what's causing it.

My point here is fairly simple. What if reducing CO2 levels is countering a normal feedback loop? If that's the case, what are the implications? Has anyone thought this through at all? I doubt it

The romans used to make wine just south of Hadrian’s wall. Go figure

Other route is politicians being honest, theft stopping, money printing stopping etc etc. Just a question of what more probable. When we are run by criminals, it’s only one direction. The real question for many should be ā€œif you are in charge and have been robbing everyone blind, who might come after you? So who should you remove from the pictureā€. That might be the question to ask when seeing the articles about conscriptions and drafts

I have a clear memory from my childhood of my grandmother visiting us in Italy from UK. She arrived fairly normal and left extremely busty!

My memory is of her stuffing high denomination italian notes into a newly acquired bra of extraordinary proportions. This was the deposit for her house that my mother gave her to take back to uk. There was a limit on how many lira one could take out of the country at the time.

With the debt spiral in full "flush down the u bend" mode, most people don't consider the concept of currency controls. Maybe it's just far too far back for many people. Just a thought.

#bitcoin #debt

And we are just getting started. #Bitcoin is pure deflationary economics. It is wild.

For everyone else, here's how it works more or less

You sell lump sum real estate for bitcoin, you acquire more lump sum bitcoin than you ever would acquire being divested into real estate trying to recuperate your opportunity cost by saving cash flow/rents in bitcoin. You'll just never hit the lump sum amount of BTC you could have had by selling. This is because of the exponential growth/adoption of an ABSOLUTELY SCARCE (INFINITE VALUE) SECURE DIGITAL ASSET. You'll never catch up trying to stack bitcoin with rental cash flow, when all your massive equity is in the property itself instead of bitcoin.

And it only gets worse the longer you hold the real estate.

The only time this conclusion changes is AFTER HYPERBITCOINIZATION, as bitcoin "returns/performance" cool off due to global saturation/adoption. Then investing in opportunities like business/real estate may make sense again, but that is far, far into the future (30-50 years, I'd say lol)

When vast majority of landlords do what SPEEDSTER here is experimenting with, real estate prices become affordable for families who need/want to own a primary residence, instead of being milked by landlords who are simultaneously losing the race against a bitcoin-only or bitcoin-predominant allocation.

The last question that remains is how to balance the genuine need for cash flow for people like retirees. The solution in my opinion may/is economically indeed be to incrementally sell that bitcoin lump sum to pay for monthly expenses, and live off the exponential return of bitcoin. This takes discipline but I believe it pays off massssssively and is the way to go, especially for retirees who have halted their POW/income activities.

I started to spend my bitcoin from 5 years ago whilst still stacking from current fiat earnings. Help adoption whilst living in negative 95% inflation. In a way it’s dumb, and in a way it’s good. My 2024 stack will come into operation in early 2030s and I hope I will gain from the additional adoption I may be promoting.

Indeed. There are always either blind spots or lack of trust. Catherine Austin Fitts has astounding knowledge and yet doesn’t see bitcoin as a solution, only metals. We all have our convictions based on the exposure to varied knowledge.

I do think Bridgen seems like an honest player. Why on earth would you keep risking so much?

It is not often that one hears a politician speaking so honestly about how the system works. Regardless what country you are in, the Andrew Bridgen interview is worth listening to. Remember, there is no such thing as a real democracy if you cannot vote on important matters. We live in an era where, due to the fiscal debauchery and endemic corruption of the debt spiral era, governments in the west are busier writing legislation to draft young men to slaughter in an unnecessary war than they are with considering the concept of peace talks.

It’s the stupid irony of the idiocy of trying to reduce cattle herds. We need the soil being broken up by hooves. We need the manure to fertilize. We killed off the big roaming herds and don’t seem to understand why the biggest environmental issue we face is soil loss? Insanity. If curious, it’s worth a little research on the effects of killing off the nomadic herding culture in Northern Africa in the past 30 years. International aid can be a really destructive force!
