We talk about why people resonate with his writing and videos so much and even toward the end we get in to some topics that are down the rabbit hole but have to make you sit back and do some deep thinking borne from the need to detach human depravity from the monetary supply. Of course we talk about why Luke doesn’t like when people say Bitcoin fixes the world as well as what happens when dollars don’t exist anymore. We also explore the different perspectives on Bitcoin as property or currency, particularly in relation to @Michael Saylor versus @Samson Mow views. 🎙️Playable Characters Ep045 💎Presented by @Based Trading Cards #bitcoin #btc #nostr #podcast

People become poor for many reasons but the biggest is that ppl are saving currency that they think is money. Saving a liability they have been told is an asset. A federal reserve note (debt) that is owed back to the Fed, WITH interest. The US dollar ceased being money in 1971. It’s not a mistake that financial literacy is not taught in government-run schools… The last 15-20 years have made this clear to me from observation and experience. Saving in #Bitcoin turns the entire system on its head and puts the people in control and removes the power wielded by the legacy institutions.
Lawrence Lepard: #Bitcoin HODL'ers will become the wealthiest people in the world. Here’s how and what that looks like… I had the honor to sit down with the one and only Larry Lepard… He discusses the recent approval of Bitcoin ETFs and explores the odds of a 6102 scenario, where the government could attempt to confiscate Bitcoin. The importance of self-custody and the need to be prepared for potential risks. The conversation explores the themes of government manipulation and rule changes, the misunderstanding of government and power, the need for a reset, the potential wealth and political power of Bitcoiners, the altruistic nature of #Bitcoiners, the trajectory of Bitcoin's price, the multiplier effect and Bitcoin's market cap, deflation and its misunderstandings, and the transition to hyperbitcoinization.
