Using they/them pronouns to talk about the man behind the curtain is strange to me. Hopefully this becomes a relic of the past.

Dreaming of a front porch fit enough for banjo plucking.
Specializing in forestry and agriculture for over a decade.
One of the main lessons from a liberal arts university education that stuck with me was this idea of wicked problems. Turns out the wicked problem is just an explanation for the emergent complex behavior of fiat currency.
Ending use of fiat currency will definitely have a significant impact on the environment.
It will be significantly good.
On the reaction to the latest state sponsored violence against an American: so long as citizens continue to give legitimacy to the State via use of the Currency violations of life, liberty, and property will continue.
How do we bear this cross? Do we weep for the dead, and yell louder?
US is a bastion of freedom and liberty. The culture of the United States is what means this is the place where Bitcoin takes root to grow to the rest of the world.
So long as we have capital gains tax at the point of sale for Bitcoin - we are compromised
@SoapMiner who goes through more oil?
An artisan soap maker or P Diddy? 😂
Natural systems don't need government programs to stay in tact. Wildlife and nature need humans to get with the program and tie money back to physics.
Our natural landscapes are destitute, soon to be desert. Millions of acres of corn, soil eroding by the hundreds of thousands of tons per year. All from emergent behavior out of the broken money.
Fix the money, fix the environment.
@ODELL what was the airplane service you used to talk about? It was a way you could fly without going through TSA, and it used private jets?
The ideology surrounding free and open protocols are quickly becoming the only space where people are FOR something, and not just against the current thing.

Danny K. a real one for grilling Saylor.
IMO Saylor made himself look like an ass for his comments to Danny.
Overly defensive, myopic, and disrespectful. Saylor needs to do some soul searching.
Bitcoin is not guaranteed to go up in value over time, especially at maturation.
It's floating value replaces the money printer and centralized elasticity of the money. This is key, and should be talked about more.
The value of the network is based on our actions collectively.
Officially tired of the AI slop.
Thought I had relating to Mises regression theorem and United States as a consumer economy. I believe in the theory Mises states that consumables have a big role to play in a money monetizing. So it would stand to reason that the United States being a consumer-based economy would be the likely place for Bitcoin to monetize the most effectively transitioning from a store of value to a medium exchange.
Kick-started by small businesses carving out niches and attacking the margins of the big centralized monopolies. Delivering goods and services that are higher quality for lower prices.
Open to critique, or further questions about this idea train.

Bitcoin is an asymmetric peace tool.
It's use has outsized effect on global peace.
@jack Square online stores don't support adding Bitcoin payments. This seems like an oversight. Please fix.
Saying Bitcoin uses a lot of energy is bad for the environment.
