Day 14 📖 #ALLINBITCOINBookClub
Reading The Bitcoin Standard — 2.5 pages a day until Dec 21 🎄
La Belle Époque = liberty + prosperity under gold.
But centralization and dilution sowed collapse.
(Today: pages 35.5–37)
Is offending others a necessary part of free speech?
Absolutely, @Jameson Lopp
Day 11 📖 #ALLINBITCOINBookClub
Reading The Bitcoin Standard — 2.5 pages a day until Dec 21 🎄
Constantine’s solidus lasted over 1,100 years. The longest-serving sound currency in history. When rulers finally debased it, Byzantium fell.
Centuries later, Florence minted the florin in 1252. This sound money helped ignite the Renaissance, fueling trade, banking, and human flourishing.
(Today: pages 28–30.5)
📸 Adding a passage that really spoke to me:
“The destruction of sound money was pivotal in turning the former citizens of the Roman Empire into serfs under the mercy of their local feudal lords…”
Maybe it hits harder because I’m European and feel addressed here, but did it speak to you too?

'Does Europe have the stomach to fight…?' says Ursula von der Leyen.
They’ll drag us into more war just to keep the money printers running.

Rome’s money was debased.
Price controls failed.
Inflation ate prosperity.
Collapse followed.
(Today: pages 25.5–27)
➡️ Are we repeating Rome’s story today?
Day 9 📖 #ALLINBITCOINBookClub
Reading The Bitcoin Standard — 2.5 pages a day until Dec 21 🎄
“Back in the late 1970s, the very affluent Hunt brothers decided to bring about the remonetization of silver and started buying enormous quantities…”
A story worth remembering. They tried to corner the market, but the stock-to-flow reality crushed them, and they lost over $1B.
Gold, meanwhile, endured from King Croesus to today.
(Today: pages 23–25.5)
Day 7 📖 #ALLINBITCOINBookClub
Reading The Bitcoin Standard — 2.5 pages a day until Dec 21 🎄
Gold: durable, scarce, indestructible → the dominant money for 2,500 years.

by @Saifedean Ammous
📖 Chapter 3 begins: Monetary Metals
From seashells to salt to cattle, all had weaknesses as money.
Precious metals like gold and silver were durable, divisible, and hard to produce, giving them high salability across time, space, and scale.
(Today: pages 15–17)

Day 5 📖 #ALLINBITCOINBookClub
