Knowing that the current monetary system is fraudulent because people can create additional currency, why don’t people adopt the honest one that has already been operating for 16 years, in which no one can create extra units?

Happy New Year brothers and sisters! This year is the year of Bitcoin as unit of account.

The collective best of this year is that nostr:nprofile1qqsq3ppke5pel7ysw3rgl5e8lt8ky7zwavm5jrs2zx9tnu2vn5nydnqpzemhxue69uhks6tnwshxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgewaehxw309ahx7um5wghxcmnsd9ux2mrn9e3k7mf0eak8qj is free. May this happen to all injusticed jailed too.

The most important concept here is the fact that banks and central banks create fake value to acquire things (real value) with it. Fake value.

If humanity uses a currency that cannot be created more of, all the wealth of the world is divided by a fixed number of units, each representing a real and predictable share of that wealth, which tends to grow with human progress.

If humanity continues to use a currency that can be created more of, the same wealth is divided by an ever increasing number of units, making each unit less representative and eroding the value of human effort over time.

I like this. I am on the word side still struggling to find what to build.

OK after a long time contemplating it and failing at various methods of introducing Bitcoin to people, I’ve finally found a simple way to spark further conversation about Bitcoin if someone asks you about it, for example, in response to seeing a company Bitcoin hat or a shirt logo on or near you. Or maybe something company related you are holding in your hand. It’s not pushy and it initially doesn’t even employ the word Bitcoin. It also quickly qualifies if you’re talking to someone with a genuine interest or whether they are looking for an opportunity to spew FUD or talk to you about their shitcoin.

Now I generally don’t advocate displaying Bitcoin swag in public because it makes you a potential target, but if you know you’re going to be in civilized company and perhaps have an opportunity for discussion, it’s not a bad thing to wear a monogrammed shirt or something like that, in my opinion.

Step 1: Make it local. People’s interest in a topic can often be sparked by seeing something with a local flavour that they’ve never heard about. Particularly in small towns. For me the magic bullet appears to be some monogrammed shirts that simply has a ₿ logo on the left breast, then immediately below that, the name of our town or region followed by the word Bitcoin. For example, Tri-City Bitcoin, Napa Valley Bitcoin, or even a specific town name. If you are not an already established business, then guaranteed almost everybody that sees it will know there is a new company or educational organization in the area that they’ve never heard of. If they’ve ever had even a passing interest in Bitcoin but not known where to start in the learning journey, it will almost invariably result in at least a simple question: “Hey Dave, what’s Tyler TX Bitcoin?”

Step 2: Keep it simple. When the question comes up and someone asks you what this organization or company (represented by the logo) is, you simply say

“We teach people how to protect their savings from inflation.”

Then don’t say another word for at least 3 seconds. Let the person pursue the topic if they wish. If not, simply say:

“If you ever want to learn the basics, I can give you a call sometime.”

Pushing the main conversation to a later date or time eliminates the possibility of it turning into a confusing, dry conversation on monetary inflation, a “FUD deflection session” or otherwise. in a group setting it also eliminates the possibility of someone in earshot coming in from the side and derailing your conversation.

The initial goal is to simply plant as many seeds as possible and inspire interest by not making it look like a sales pitch.

Anyway, I’m sure there’s a million variations on this, but I think the concept of planting seeds rather than getting into lengthy conversations initially, is a pretty good way to go.

If the individual is really hungry for knowledge, go for it. But Bitcoin itself employs “sly roundabout ways”. Maybe we need to be subtle too.

I like the idea of putting the local name on something to trigger interest. Makes sense.

01:23:02 Final Thoughts

In this conversation, Jeff Booth discusses the inherent deflationary nature of technology and its implications for the economy. He challenges the traditional views on inflation and debt, arguing that the current financial system is designed to benefit a select few while perpetuating a cycle of control and manipulation. Booth emphasizes the importance of decentralization, privacy, and individual agency in shaping a new economic paradigm that values transparency and abundance. He also highlights the role of Bitcoin as a decentralized alternative to traditional banking systems, advocating for a shift towards a free market that embraces deflation as a path to prosperity.

KEY TAKEWAYS

• The natural state of the free market is deflation.

• Technology drives exponential deflation, creating more value.

• Central banks perpetuate inflation to sustain the debt-based system.

• A new economic paradigm is emerging that values transparency and decentralization.
