But more importantly, kudos to you if you're not even reading the headlines, because who cares, just keep building/ stacking 😄

- Gold "up" against dollar (i.e., dollar down against gold)

- Bitcoin NGU / new ATH hashrate

- Fiat economy spiraling

Bro, "western civ" means

1) the dignity and value of the individual

2) essence precedes existence / transcendent and knowable norms

3) private property

4) classical liberalism in general

5) etc

#bitcoin itself is born of these principles

The 'Austrians' are not surprised by today's headlines.

Economics is not magic, it's like geometry: once you learn the axioms, you can solve for, and predict, almost anything.

For me, it's the Art of creation. Would love to go back one day. Park City, UT is similar. The mountains provoke a feeling of smallness that is both humbling and yet leads to gratitude.

"Gold hits all time high" 👎

"USD hits all time low against gold" 👍🏻

Forgot my wallet at grocery store last night. Had to set up Google Pay and Google Wallet TEMPORARILY so I could pay and go home with dinner stuffs. Disconnected and deleted as soon as I got to the parking lot, but...I still feel so...dirty...

Peter Schiff's analogy of getting paid in fiat with getting paid in dead fish is perfect. Yes, yes, he's wrong (so far) about #bitcoin. But when it comes to defending sound money in principle, he's pretty darn good.

Credit where it's due.

My paternal grandfather was an Army-trained mechanic who opened the first Esso service station in his home region. He did very well. When the treasury began debasing Silver dollars, he was paying attention. In that cash-based society, as a retailer, he had access to a decent volume of cash and coin. Every pure silver dollar that came in, he squirreled away and replaced it in circulation with the new debased quarters.

Legend.
