Bigger dogs.

I had a Great Dane that lived almost 12 years. She sounded like thunder of the gods.

No one ever came to my door.

This season is turning into straight up torture porn.

Really downhill from season one.
A big chunk of US dollars is nothing but a rapidly melting ice cube at this point. Have to dump most of it into something with actual lasting value ASAP.

Is he a better songwriter than Bob Dylan?

Yes and it ain't close.




id give Dylan credit as a better lyricist or poet

But when you include melody, harmony, arrangement etc, its Paul going away

The last 50 years (your timeframe) would suggest the polar oppo.


not at all

The size of government as a percentage of GDP has gone nowhere but through the roof. We now have the largest regulatory state apparatus in human history. It does nothing but restrain human creativity and cultural innovation.

Their ability to inflate themselves with fake, stolen, paper money has allowed this. Hospitals and schools are >50% administration and compliance. Our academic institutions at this point can't even produce a study with reproducible results. Progress in science and medicine are laughable compared to the previous 100 years. The people in charge literally care more about skin color and genitalia than creativity or innovation.

We have built hundreds of military bases all over the globe and bombed, droned, and displaced millions of innocents on every continent but Australia and Antarctica.

All impossible without fiat.

Americans are far stupider, fatter, more depressed, lazier, and more dismissive of the future than ever before.

Thanks to fiat.

just a well-read, 20+ year, financial advisor


Then you've had a front row seat for the destruction of the once great USD. You can see them funneling value ever upward, while robbing the bank accounts of normal people. Do you think they can keep doing it forever?

quote:

That’s what gold thought.



Gold worked great for hundreds of years, and allowed American liberty and innovation to take us to the top of global cultural and economic dominance. Maniacal villains like Woodrow Wilson and Richard Nixon (among others) destroyed all that, in favor of tyrannical visions of world dominance through concentrated power.

Gold would theoretically still work, but BTC is much better due to speed of settlement, and instant validation.

TPTB will relinquish its stranglehold on currency


its inevitable

a totally decentralized global computer network cant be taken down

its mere existence ensures its continued expansion
quote:

Do you believe a central bank, namely the Federal Reserve, will drop the Dollar in your lifetime?


Fiat always goes to zero. It is the toxic corrosive poison that has undermined the fabric of society for 50 years, and fueled a century of brutal global violence and oppression. It is a lodestone around the neck of American innovation and prosperity.

The federal reserve is a literal gang of criminals that skims value from American productivity, and siphons it off to a totally unproductive oligarchic political class. They can only get away with it for so long, especially now that the people have an alternative to the melting ice cube that is government paper. The people of this planet will indeed wake up to these facts and the reserve status will die. It will be in my lifetime.

quote:

Do you agree the primary factors in determining the value of BTC are currently speculation, emotion and momentum?


At this moment, your fiatcoin is worth about 5200 satoshis. Five years ago, it was worth about 40000. Don't care, eh? That's exactly how much I care about the "value of BTC" from day to day. Ill check it in 5-10 years.

The hardest money always wins. It's only a matter of time.

quote:

1. Dot coms


As if web sites were a loss. Businesses were overvalued, but not the technology that allowed them to exist. This is not like the dotcom bubble. This is like thinking TCP/IP is a bubble. BTC is the network. Its not some website.

quote:

2. Mortgage backed securities


Securities and especially their derivatives lose value when the assets behind them lose value. BTC is backed by an immutable and interminable computer network. It is the assett.

quote:

3. Tulips


Tulips can be produced ad infinitum. Bitcoin is finite, the supply can never increase.

You fiatcoiners holding on to your precious government paper. I hate to see it.

"A" for originality and effort, but too much sensory overload for me. Too many quick cuts, loud sounds etc.

Fast pacing loses its effectiveness when used indiscriminately.
