Starting to feel like the last bear market. Initial big bump off the lows, excitement grows, then grinding down for months and months.
Of course if ETF finally gets approved in Q4 or Q1, that could changed quickly. But the recent Grayscale victory did nothing for price.

It seems inevitable that 99% of rod vehicles with be EVs at some point in the not too distant future. Having a gas car will be like having a horse today. Antiquated and for the rich as playthings.
That being said, I fucking hate all the virtual signaling about it.

If the right sheds the baggage of Trump and embraces the hope that Bitcoin brings, it can be a powerful force for American Revival.
Might need to wait until Trump dies though. His fans are just as cultish as Bitcoin, but Bitcoin can’t die ;)

If Desantis loses in 2024, it will be JD Vance that’s next.
The guy is untouchable because he married an Indian woman. He’s also got the cred with a Yale Law degree. He’s a world famous author with service in the Marine Corps. Finally he’s a Bitcoiner.
Keep an eye out for JD Vance over the next 5 years. He could win it all or lead a revolution. Hard to say which way it’ll break, but I think could be big.

Is the climate changing? Yes of course it is. It always has.
Is it caused by humans? Yes, partly so but we don’t have high confidence on how much.
Do we know what the effects will be in 50 years? God no. Our uncertainty that far out with this many variables so incredibly high.
Do we know how humans will adapt? Again, no. Humans are incredibly adaptive.
There is a clear argument for the Precautionary Principle. If you don’t know it’s better to play it safe and not eff with Mother Nature. But it cannot be at the expense of rationale policy and human welfare. If we take the Precautionary response, we need to go all-in on Nuclear and slowly phase out fossil fuels in a coherent and realistic manner.
Also, China and India do not give af and they are #1 in GHG by a long shot. So there’s that.

2023-06-02 21:18:50 UTC

It is amazing how complete the great climate change psyop has been. 80% of the people I know are terrified of climate change.
Everything that is bad and has to do with weather and climate can be blamed on climate change. Uncertainties, confounding factors, and errors be damned!

Neo Liberals have won the culture war and it’s not even close.
Conservatives and Classical Liberals should retrench into their enclaves, show others success with their values, and wait for the neo liberal order to collapse in on itself. Only then will people come back to sanity.
Capitalism didn’t directly convert Soviet and Chinese Communists. They had to show success from 50s to 90s, then Communism collapsed, then they all realized Capitalism is far better for human prosperity and they converted themselves.

2023-05-30 19:32:16 UTC

I don’t think Bitcoiners are going to alter the climate change narrative. It’s too strong by now.
We really just need to play into it and show how Bitcoin helps us de carbonize.

I believe states like Florida and Texas will secede from the Union before following the blue states into the madness of a cultural revolution. They see history with a wary eye. They see Lenin and Mao and the millions dead.

There is a general malaise in the air. Prices go up. Quality goes down. Sizes get smaller. Our schools are cranking out braindead foot soldiers of the cultural revolution. Our healthcare has never been so expensive and so crushingly frustrating. The service is getting worse, yet requests for tips have exploded. Things just don’t seem to work right.
Every empire and every money has its cycle. Evidence of its twilight is everywhere. We must prepare for the painful end of one paradigm and the beautiful beginning of a more prosperous one.

Postwar Japan and Germany were pegged to the USD after Breton Woods and until 1971z China is still pegged to the USD at an artificially low rate. Calling them “strong currencies” is not being intellectually consistent. Also consider that during the 1800s all major industrialized countries were on a gold standards and I’m talking about the relative strength of currencies.
It seems that a relatively stronger currency just means that a country’s manufacturers have to continually move up the value curve to compete. A hard money results in higher “natural” interest rates, which requires higher ROI investments (aka actual productive investments of debt), which then lead to higher capital formation, and finally higher quality, more complex manufactured good.
In other words, a country on a Bitcoin Standard is going to be making chips and spaceships, not plastic widgets.
Would we already be on Mars if not for Nixon closing the gold window in 1971?
