Am listening to @Jeff Booth again! 😂🧡👍 @Peter McCormack Video description: In this episode, Jeff Booth explains why the natural state of a free market is deflationary and why a debt-based monetary system can’t allow it. We discuss AI as an acceleration event: exponential productivity should make life cheaper, but the system has to create scarcity to keep debt serviceable. We cover how inflation functions as hidden extraction, why regulation favours monopolies, why politics becomes a fight over who controls broken money and why AI will intensify centralisation, surveillance, and social conflict unless the monetary layer changes.

Two stories that I came across this week (in Australia). ☹️🧡🇦🇺

Thanks for the recommendation @BTC Sessions 🙏👍

Fiat Food Sample

Inflation is down. Oh, look! Prices are coming down. People don't understand... "No! Things are getting more expensive less fast." 🤣😂🧡 - @BTC Sessions

Fun conversation! 🧡👍👏 @Brandon Gentile @Bitcoin Mentor @BTC Sessions https://www.youtube.com/live/Jh4U3F3oIOU

A snapshot of the state of Australia's public budgets, by the independent Parliamentary Budget Office, shows total net debt held by the states, territories and federal governments will reach $1.1 trillion next financial year. How big is a trillion? A million seconds ago was February 5th. A billion seconds ago was 1994. A trillion seconds ago was 30,000 B.C. That's around $40,500 per head of population, includes babies and anyone over age 90. 🤭🫣🧡

I haven't watched parts 1 or 3. Yet as a stand alone video, this part 2 is great for absolute beginners in Bitcoin. Video description: Bitcoin’s resilience doesn’t come from secrecy or complexity. It comes from a brutally simple economic rule: replace trust with incentives. In this video, we break down: • The double-spending problem • Why central ledgers always fail • How Proof-of-Work aligns self-interest with security • Why 51% attacks are economically self-destructive • How incentives create agreement among strangers. This isn’t hype. It’s system design.
