It doesn’t fit into those categories (perhaps the most related is Philosophy), but if you want your brain to explode read The Beginning of Infinity by David Deutsch. Here’s the description:
“In this groundbreaking book, award-winning physicist David Deutsch argues that explanations have a fundamental place in the universe—and that improving them is the basic regulating principle of all successful human endeavor. Taking us on a journey through every fundamental field of science, as well as the history of civilization, art, moral values, and the theory of political institutions, Deutsch tracks how we form new explanations and drop bad ones, explaining the conditions under which progress—which he argues is potentially boundless—can and cannot happen. Hugely ambitious and highly original, The Beginning of Infinity explores and establishes deep connections between the laws of nature, the human condition, knowledge, and the possibility for progress.”

What do you think is probability that the US makes it illegal to own Bitcoin in the next 5 years?

Do you think an asset can have monetary inflation and also have predetermined issuance? #Bitcoin

This will be in direct proportion to Bitcoin education.

I’ve mentioned this to you before, but this is a great guide. 💪

Totally. Once a tipping point of understanding is reached it’s impossible to go back. Though, it is a healthy exercise to think about “what would make me allocate to other asset classes”…even thought the answer is typically “nothing”. Always have to be vigilant.

2023-03-19 20:51:39

Correct. What you are explaining falls into the category of “ability to take risk”. Yet no matter how bad a situation, you can always improve, even if it’s progress one millimeter at a time.

2023-03-19 20:38:56

Interesting thing about life: you’re exactly where you should be. This is based on your intelligence, your judgement, your ability to take risk, and your willingness to take risk—all of which can be improved with effort (by you, and you alone).

Ah, so it’s a very basic intro? Thanks man

Is “Hard Money You Can’t F*ck With” a good book?

Well you can only utilize $3,000 of capital losses to offset ordinary income if losses exceed gains….so not really a big deal.

2023-03-10 16:16:51

Bitcoin is peace.

C’mon BTC…let’s go back in the $19K’s. I love the downside vol. Keep it coming.

It’s interesting to think of how many alien civilizations across the universe have invented the exact same technology as Bitcoin. Probably millions. Maybe billions.

I decided I wanted to learn Bitcoin inside and out and bought every book about Bitcoin on the market. Studied them and wrote my own book about Bitcoin. That solidified my understanding.

Reading The 7th Property. Quite a good book. I recommend it to all Bitcoiners.

Honestly I don’t think any if it is new so far. For example, all things you mentioned are things that @saylor has been saying for quite some time. And cypher punks have been saying similar things, too. I’m not bashing the author, just hoping I get more out of the book soon. Time will tell 👍

I’m finding it quite the opposite. Anything in particular that stands out for you?

Is there an optimal number of relays to have? Oddly, I feel performance for me was better with fewer relays.

So far I haven’t come across anything new…I’m not sure what all the hype was for. But lots to go of course. If it doesn’t get interesting soon I’ll give up on it for now.

Anyone reading Softwar? I’m about 15% of the way through.
