Bitcoin is such a complex and multifaceted ecosystem that it's possible for intelligent folks to craft theories and narratives about it that are quite compelling. This is because everything they say is technically correct, but the flaws are due to what's left unsaid, unseen, and even unknown.

Clearly a smart fella who knows his history and understands systems.

I suspect that what's left unsaid may be more important than what he says. Because all the things he says seem to be logically correct.

I'm writing up some more detailed thoughts.

Miami Beach is nice to visit but sure ain't cheap. I paid $40 for a Caesar salad with half a dozen shrimp on it.

Thankful for the hangover cure of steak 🥩 & 🍳

A fistful of shitcoins.

"If you want to understand a society, take a good look at the drugs it uses. And what can this tell you about American culture? Well, look at the drugs we use. Except for pharmaceutical poison, there are essentially only two drugs that Western civilization tolerates: caffeine from Monday to Friday to energize you enough to make you a productive member of society, and alcohol from Friday to Monday to keep you too stupid to figure out the prison that you are living in."

Dropping a grand on epigenetic testing. Hope this isn't a scam!
