bitcoin basics for the confused.
blockchain consensus: defines what gets into the blockchain. hard rules. simple and clean. obey or fork. changes once a decade. blocksize wars.
mempool policy: defines what gets into your personal mempool. soft rules. nothing happens if you don't obey. changes regularly. complex and depends on implementation. does not prevent transactions from entering the blockchain.

Tax Classification: Collectibles vs. Securities
Gold as a Collectible: The IRS classifies physical gold (e.g., bullion, coins) as a "collectible" under IRC Section 408(m).
Collectibles, which also include art, antiques, and certain other tangible assets, are subject to a maximum long-term capital gains tax rate of 28% for assets held longer than one year.
Stocks as Securities: Stocks, bonds, and most other investment securities are classified differently and are subject to a lower maximum long-term capital gains tax rate of 0%, 15%, or 20%, depending on your taxable income and filing status. For 2025, the 20% rate applies to higher-income taxpayers (e.g., taxable income above $553,850 for single filers or $622,050 for married filing jointly).

Stockholm Syndrome.
SCOTUS 1884 - From the decision of the court I see only evil likely to follow. There have been times within the memory of all of us when the legal-tender notes of the United States were not exchangeable for more than one-half of their nominal value.
The possibility of such depreciation will always attend paper money. This inborn infirmity no mere legislative declaration can cure. If congress has the power to make the notes a legal tender and to pass as money or its equivalent, why should not a sufficient amount be issued to pay the bonds of the United States as they nature? Why pay interest on the millions of dollars of bonds now due when congress can in one day make the money to pay the principal?
And why should there be any restraint upon unlimited appropriations by the government for all imaginary schemes of public improvement, if the printing-press can furnish the money that is needed for them?
