True use case for it is criminals, drug traffickers, anti-money laundering and tax avoidance. Break it down.

Turn it up!

they hate bitcoin because it will make them transparent 🤭

Got a few questions for people:

1. Would you want to have client themes?

2. If so, what color palettes do you like?

what does it even mean i searched for "client themes" and still no idea, and yes i want to have them 🤶

That is fine. You are welcome to do all you can and persuade all you can.

Just don't use coercion to push your belief.

Sure, and to be clear I'm not supporting a tax or some law, but the problem is real that's what I mean.

For a scientist to say with any degree of certainty that it is mostly humans is not being scientific and is just spouting an opinion.

honestly not sure if we agree here, maybe it is biased and not accurate, or we don't know the reason, or someone trying to take advantage of it, still it is a real and serious threat, not just lies.

and given it is trending lately with all the industrialization and oil consumption it seems humans may have a big effect in that

There isnt a great deal out there on the future of nation state’s specifically relating to Bitcoin that i know of.

You can read ‘The Sovereign Individual’ which was absolutely prophetic and ahead of its time in 1997, the authors envision a world with something like Bitcoin in it and understood the implications but it’s mostly talking about a world like we have today.

Balaji has a book called ‘The Network State’ which is ok and hits some of the right themes but misses others.

‘The Machinery of Freedom’ isn’t about Bitcoin but it’s an in-depth view of what a stateless society at scale might look like.

nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe has spoken a bit about it in some pods I’ve heard, as has nostr:npub15vzuezfxscdamew8rwakl5u5hdxw5mh47huxgq4jf879e6cvugsqjck4um, but neither to my knowledge have fully fleshed out the game theory and the push-and-pull dynamics that might/will play out.

nostr:npub1r8l06leee9kjlam0slmky7h8j9zme9ca32erypgqtyu6t2gnhshs3jx5dk has done a number of pods on free cities as well.

Short term it is better to dollarise, medium to long term they’ve just hitched their lifeboat to the titanic.

Not even #Bitcoin will save nation states in the long run - they’re fundamentally incompatible with the new economic structure it enables and they cannot adapt to the economic power going to the edge.

Interesting, can you elaborate or share a link about the future of nation states, Its a new topic to me and its kinda scary?

thinking about it, there would be a better opportunity for individuals or groups to become sovereign but the state would still control the actual physical resources of the country, they may join the new economic structure and still keep their population in the same old bubble

Replying to

Yes but countries don’t have all their reserves in USD, they’re invested to different degrees.

And with alternatives there outside of USD, there should be an ability for countries to protect their people but that’s “in theory”, when the US war machine is your defense umbrella that becomes a very muddy picture hence why I say countries will dollarise - they’ll be forced at the barrel of uncle Sam’s gun.

and yet the people still have to deal with another local money printing game, i'm not sure but to dollarise seems a better option for the people than the much worse currency

Replying to

Well the debt is never actually going to be paid back (see graphic below) so let’s get that straight.

But their tactic will be twofold:

1) debase the shit out of the dollar, printing to cover as much as they can to buy time

2) get as many people in as many countries to dollarise as they can - essentially they’ll help other fiat currencies blow up and fall back to the USD as Argentina are about to do. For all intents and purposes the US empire is about to grow by 47 million people when that happens which dilutes the inflationary effect across more people

BRICS will essentially become the anti-USD alliance, Gold will be the neutral asset between them to begin but #Bitcoin will also sit between them and be the one to actually drink the milkshake

thanks I mean also without dollarising, countries have their reserve in dollars so debasement affects the whole country like each country is one big US citizen + thinking about a third world country that imports most of its needs they still have to pay in dollars and locals will pay higher prices

$867 Billion debt added in 73 days.

Every US Citizen has racked up $2,459 additional debt in that time.

Current runrate has the debt at $34,196B by the end of 2023. nostr:note150m4huqhsuu83fc34jpq9956mlj3hm0k6m0l7rcsea8qtmyl0gusj4p38c

honest question is it true to assume only US citizens are to pay the debt when the whole world lives on dollars?

It's also about power/control.

Here is a study that looks at the temperature data being take. Most of the temp data is in urban areas which are significantly warmer than the rural Station. And states it cannot be stated with any degree of certainty what is causing the warming (human or other)

well i didn't read it, just looked at the charts and it looks like the temperature is rising so the climate is changing?

You cant say printing money is imoral and that the “shitcoins” are imoral and say in the same argument Bitcoin isn’t printing new money because is set, it’s nonsense 🧐🧐🧐

for me the immorality is not printing, but printing out of thin air, while others have to sweat for it, at least Bitcoin takes energy to give coins. And at least anyone can join the process of creation, why have that special someone that only he who can create something out of nothing like he is god or something? i don't want to play that game. Bitcoin is fair play, and i don't own any of it but i'm just happy for its existence

"If the state wants money, they'll have to work for it just like any other participant in the market"

matata

is languages not exactly like that tho?

and it cant rly be random bc there needs to be intention to plan/plot

and the chance of language being developed is not small since it happened over and over in a particular distributed way, which leaves not much room left for randomness

unless i do not know what randomness means, maybe im missing smth ab randomness and probability
