We’re currently losing 1 IQ point per decade on average. Doesn’t seem too bad until you realise this would cut in half the number of people with 130+ IQ points every 30 years (think IQ bell curve meme) @dominicfrisby infers this must mean, higher house prices = lower birth rate = lower IQ. fascinating podcast nugget from @TheJollyHeretic #bitcoin #grownostr #zap #pleb #IQ #birthrate #inflation #zap

When linked up to a brain stimulating device for research, and given the opportunity to stimulate their own brain areas (love, arousal, anger, loss, euphoria) participants of a study surprised the researchers by choosing anger as their emotion of choice. I have high hopes for nostr in the long run but twitter / X is going to be a difficult addiction to kick for many. #bitcoin #nostr #grownostr #zap #hubeman #JRE #pleb

The UK is considering raising cap gains and the inheritance tax after promising ‘no tax rises’ before their election. “We have fully costed, fully funded plans. Nothing in our plans requires any additional tax to be increased and there will be no return to austerity if Labour are elected on 4 July” How is this legal? #labour #tax #capitalgains #inheritance #bitcoin #grownostr #nostr #zap

Personally I lean towards all forms of tax hindering the growth of a country. But, it’s especially crazy seeing high income AND high sales tax countries , such as many Western European countries. Double dipping into the pockets of their citizens is shameful. #grownostr #bitcoin #pleb #zap #nostr #tax

“M1 includes the most liquid portions of the money supply because it contains currency and assets that either are or can be quickly converted to cash.” My normie friends are now feeling and mentioning prices more frequently than a year or two ago. Given we’re about to cut rates and potentially print again, I worry about the next wave of inflation. #grownostr #nostr #bitcoin #inflation #zap #pleb

Given the high ETF inflows I am surprised the price of bitcoin is down recently. I am concerned that the ETFs aren’t sharing proof of reserves. My inner conspiracist is telling me there’s potential for paper bitcoin to exist in the market this next bull run - similar to how FTX created paper bitcoin, surpressing the price in the last bull run. (Credit to bitwise for posting proof of reserves) #grownostr #nostr #ETF #zap #bitcoin #pleb
