The great reset. Soon step 6:

1. Pandemic and war

2. Print money and lower rates

3. Stop money printing and hike rates

4. Stop rate hikes

5. Start cutting rates

6. Start money printing

7. Hyperinflation of the USD

8. Debt gets worthless

9. Bitcoin Standard

This chart is kind of shocking actually. A society completely flipped the mechanism for how it deals with people who are problematic for themselves and others.

It's been volitile, but the number of transactions has been consistently growing. If it wasn't for segwit we would probably have higher fees than the reward already. We were on pace in 2016/17.

But either way, there is still no issue. Let's say hypothetically there are zero transactions waiting with a fee. There wouldn't be any mining! Which would mean no blocks. And after a long period of no blocks, eventually someone would want to use Bitcoin, so they would submit a fee and someone would mine it.

It's a pretty well contained, self correcting market. I could even see block time variance decreasing as transaction demand becomes higher and more consistent, and miners want to capitalize on fees.

Go out, get sun! I found a tree! May you find one as well.

Except EU. ECB will fight for Euro till the last cent.

Game theory will force every country to adopt Bitcoin.

I like paranoid crypto anarchists. Good folks doing good work. Big fan.

I read a book called How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying.

There is a woman from Earth named Davi who is the chosen one and she is stuck in a time loop in a fantasy world. Every time she dies, she wakes up in a forest pond and an old wizard finds her and says the prophecy is for her to save the world.

She has lived 237 of these lifetimes, totaling over 1,000 years, and can never win. The dark lord and his horde always wins, no matter what she tries. She has understandably become quite cynical. Her personality is like Deadpool now; she takes nothing seriously, constantly jokes about things, and breaks the fourth wall.

So as she is getting tortured in the dungeon of the dark lord on life #237 after yet another multi-year attempt that failed, she decides she is fed up with this. Instead of trying to defeat the dark lord and save the kingdom, she will instead join the bad side and become the dark lord.

So after finally finding a way to kill herself and end the torture, she wakes up in the forest pond again. When the wizard comes to find her, she kills him and then heads into the forest to start her journey to work up the bad guys ladder. Kind of like Groundhog Day she has so much accumulated experience (fighting, magic, combat tactics, knowledge of what events will happen when) and she can iterate when she fails, so she sets off on this new journey to become Dark Lord Davi.

So the story follows her as she builds a bigger and bigger army (she insists on calling it a horde, since dark lords have hordes) and adventures across the world accumulating power.

Funny stuff.

Bitcoin is to self-sovereign finance as the internet was to freedom of speech.

Young people are not able to afford anything anymore and they don’t understand why. In school they don’t learn about fractional reserve banking so I can understand why.

You will soon be called lucky by your friends and co-workers.

Happy Birthday to me!

Just turned 23.

Hope y'all have a great evening!

The government can print money. The fact that this is possible should make people really angry, but they don’t seem to care.
