Well, at least they provided some truth. Nothing does this train 🤷

Perhaps the best book on the intersection of economics and technology, and Wikipedia doesn't know about it 😮

Don't worry Lyn, Im plugging you for next Chair of Fed Reserve to my contacts in DC.
Hey Lyn 🙏 could you please post something like this? “I consider Bitcoin perfect freedom money. It is not just another asset in a control system. Its most important benefits are lost if it is not used as a peer-to-peer cash without third parties, and users cannot use it in a private way.” Then we could add that to the WikiPedia article and use your Nostr post as the source. We would push the cypherpunk attitude, Bitcoin and Nostr at the same time. (WikiPedia would probably remove the quote and the link within 24 hours, but it would be fun.)
It's hard to trust any content on Wikipedia after all the COVID 19 propaganda stuff they published. Nice to know they are getting one thing right. They should have credited Breaking Bad too for the quota.

Wikipedia is such a captured crock of horse s**t these days. Your work is respected and valued by many Lyn. Always appreciate your calm and grounded take on things.

What you're known for will never be outdated so long as nothing does indeed stop this train.
can’t remember the post but you mentioned russell napier recently and your respect for him, as well as disagreeing on btc. good point you made about communication flow that is vastly different from prior periods and may assist btc in the challenges russell offers. case in point may be right in front of us. chanos and others screaming loudly of an AI bubble. is it? sure, probably. begging for a govt backstop isn’t a great sign. those that want to get out now are likely influenced by big minds sounding the alarm on the bubble through social media. this will accelerate. and it was not possible in the late 90s and prior bubbles. it also works both ways. the bubble screamers could very well be replaced by btc screamers when the peanut butter hits the fan. and when it does, you will have gen alpha - the cohort growing up on roblox and other digitally native worlds (i see a 7 yr old interact w these w these platforms w savant-like fluidity every day) leading the charge. skeptics do not want to be offsides in that world.
Side note, trying to prove to wikipedia that someone wrote their book is harder than you think... image
