Funny how the crowd preaching 'pragmatism' built a system that needs a permanent, planned subsidy to feel secure, while the 'ideologues' are the only ones betting it all on a free market.

Take heed folks, we got a new Einstein here:

What a sore loser @Hanshan
Monero’s approach assumes we must inject uncertainty to preserve function — that error is a feature, not a bug. But monetary policy doesn’t need to be a balancing act between loss and growth. It needs to be clear, fixed, and incorruptible. Bitcoin gives you that. #Monero trades it away for a false sense of continuity.
Truth is: you can model inflation via discounting. You can model deflation via premiums. One assumes value decay and demands compensation. The other assumes value retention — and rewards patience and foresight. Neither breaks the economy. But only one requires trust in a planner.
#Bitcoin doesn’t hinder spending. It reconditions it.
And that terrifies those still addicted to the inflation drug — even if they code in Rust.
#XMR cultists fear deflation but preach open markets — a contradiction they can’t resolve.
Monero cultists often attack #Bitcoin’s 21M hard cap by invoking the tired trope that deflation discourages spending, thereby preventing rational economic calculation. In contrast, they celebrate #XMR’s perpetual tail emission — planned inflation — as a necessary feature that ensures miners are incentivized and the economy keeps “moving.”
But this is orthodox Keynesian logic dressed in cypherpunk cosplay.
Most of self-righteous twats deserve misery.
The only comforting thought is that everyone is destined to die.
You can't starve children to death in self-defence, no matter how much you twist the narrative.
