Just wasted my time reading a lengthy rebuttal to the recent drivechain article by @Harry
So here’s a rebuttal of a rebuttal.
The Parable of Paul and the Boat.
Imagine you and everyone you love are on a boat crossing the ocean. There’s only one other boat in this ocean and it happens to be held together by Jerome Powell’s chewing gum and some double sided sticky tape that Janney Yellen got on clearance at HomeGoods. The rest of the world is on that boat. Yours is a nice boat though. It’s spacious, with lots of mahogany furniture and leather bound books to edify the intrepid voyagers. Your boat happens to be powered by a nuclear reactor. It’s a long journey, so far there’s been some rough seas, a few squalls, long stretches of rainy days, but that’s to be expected given the nature of things.
Today however is sunny and warm with a mild chop in the water and some curious porpoises (read Feds) following in the boat’s impressive wake. You go up to the deck to take in the invigorating sea breeze and sun your balls. Suddenly, your reverie is perturbed. Some guy named Paul notices there’s a cloud in the sky and starts yelling. He’s really freaking out. “Storms come from clouds!“ "Storms are scary!“ The boat needs to go faster!” he says. “We need more fuel!”
Enriched uranium sadly is in short supply 1000 miles from land so he starts problem solving. “Think think think. The nuclear reactor basically just creates a lot of heat which drives a steam engine… What else creates heat???? Fire! What makes fire?….Wood! Eureka! All we need to do is throw all our nice mahogany chairs into the nuclear reactor, then we can make more heat and go faster and out run the scary clouds in the sky! Wait a second…Ooooo other things burn too! Paper also burns! We could burn all the books! Also, if anyone feels inclined they could toss in their clothes, their shoes, or their food scraps. We could even literally dump all our shit into the reactor!!! Such efficiency Much wow. We are gonna go so fast for real for real.”
Would Paul’s idea work? Maybe it would. But the reactor might also explode sending everyone to the bottom of the ocean.
Some of the people on the boat like Paul’s idea and start stripping down. Most people think he should take a deep breath and go for a walk. Someone points out that before Paul started getting hysterical he incorporated a firewood selling business called Sztorc Corp and started buying chairs. Meanwhile the boat just keeps chugging along.

Spent about an hour watering and pruning my sequoias today while the kids mucked around in the yard. Do you have a sequoia (metaphorically or otherwise) did you water it?

Does summer come for everyone?
Can humans do as prophets say?
And if I die before I learn to speak
Can money pay for all the days I lived awake
But half asleep?
As the world’s largest tree, capable of growing for thousands of years, the Giant Sequoia tree uniquely embodies the ennobling potential inherent in Bitcoin. Like Bitcoin, it thrives off patience. Like Bitcoin, it begins from a tiny seed. Like Bitcoin, it has the potential to grow to truly vast dimensions and persist for ages.
Planting one of these trees is a gift to our descendants (someone 3,000 years from now will thank you) and provides a tangible outlet for the value of low time preference that Bitcoin helps instill in those who take the time to understand it. I would be honored if you join me and the movement started at BTreeC.com by founding your own grove
🖖live long and prosper!

The backyard sequoia got a few battle scars this winter but is rebounding nicely. And so it is with the orange coin
