Good post by @rodarmor. I don't like inscriptions but it seems best to mostly ignore them and carry on.

Great read here, particularly the section on social failures of monetarism. Malinvestment, premature substitution of labor with automation, more wealth transfer to worst economic actors, rise of demagoguery

Great thread, and it mirrors my experience talking to people about Bitcoin. They simply won't get it until they see the issues with the inflationary fiat currency system. Moral of the story: use a socratic approach that exposes the fiat system's flaws.

Nice short video by @mattkratter with an explanation of @coryklippsten's thesis: - Grow the intransigent minority of 10M bitcoiners in the US (but hey growing it globally won't hurt) - Run the race to prevent a war

Great post by @brian_trollz here on El Salvador, Bitcoin and crime rates. The crime rates coming down is a pre requisite for further investment and advancement. Hopefully we see more of that to come.

Also, deflation and liberty are related. We as bitcoiners *want* deflation. This is not in line with the typical economics/finance view you'd be familiar with, but it's worth reading this short essay

You won't understand the point of Bitcoin until you see the issue with the fiat currency regime. I suggest reading this book
