@Seb Bunney & @Daz B are rock solid Bitcoiners.
I can't imagine they'd be returning so often if the firefighters weren't solid too.
Will give it a listen. ๐ค

I just finished the pod gents.
What a ripper! Entertaing, intellectually honest & funny AF. I felt a little triggered at times & wanted to sling counter arguments back. I can only imagine what it was like for you guys to have that ability & still restrain your inner autist.
The major threat that I think is worth hedging against or at least gaming out is the threat of prolonged price suppression. I think it's occurring to a degree now & could get worse or persist for longer than we expect. We all gotta eat & I only have so much beef in my freezer.
Ultimately I trust in the human desire for self preservation & greed. The alignment of so many incentives is Bitcoin's greatest achievement. It's what gives me so much hope & it's so rarely perfected (never?) in human engineered systems.
My red flags for Bitcoin (I stole this from the slightly less autistic Dunworth) are:
- no more than 21 million bitcoin
- the next block will be added to the time chain
If those 2 conditions are likely to be met, I have confidence in Bitcoin's survival.
I'm also in favour of Bitcoin's ossification beyond any necessary forks (the Unix date bug is a known example).
Much respect & love to you all. Thank you ๐งก๐ค
