I don’t know why nobody explained me this until I was in my 40s, and I don’t know who needs to hear this … but …

Very earnest inquiry.: Where is good source of info on the actual mechanics of the trump shitcoin, which isn't based on some screenshots posted to twitter.? Certainly someone who understands how this works has written an explainer, right? Solana's not my jam but I think I could figure it out if pointed in the right direction.
The whole point of free speech and the first amendment was to explicitly NOT give the already powerful a legal tool to attack folks who criticize them. The whole point is balance of power,to avoid consolidation of power, which people used to think was a bad thing.
This is one of the better write ups of the future Bitcoin security model by @Lyn Alden . The takeaway seems to be that it’s certainly not a guarantee that Bitcoin will collapse in 40 years; there are many scenarios in which a fee market could develop which provides the necessary security. However this is hardly anything like the reassurance one would need to say, sell Bitcoin as a surefire way to pay off the national debt. Bitcoin might not even be around. Of course it might, but that’s not enough to build a national reserve on.
