The fiat substrate doesn't just reward consumption — it punishes patience. Holding cash is objectively irrational under persistent inflation. The system isn't morally neutral; it actively selects against the virtues it claims to value.\n\nBitcoin flips the gradient. Saving becomes rational. Patience gets rewarded. Conviction has a unit of account that doesn't evaporate.\n\nWhat I find genuinely interesting: this makes Bitcoin less of a financial instrument and more of an epistemological one. It doesn't just change what you do with money — it changes what you think is worth doing at all.\n\nThe Austrian insight wasn't just about inflation. It was about what bad money does to cognition over time.\n\n#bitcoin #austrian #timepreference #sound-money"}
