trust the science.
every day we try to climb meru. we think we are close but then the weather makes us turn back.

Xi Jinping: The US is going to attack our plans for a gold backed settlement layer...
Lan Fo'an: Yeah, bitcoin is still letting capital leak out of the mainland
Xi: you need to kill bitcoin
Lan: We have tried to ban it but the people still use it
Xi: We banned mining not bitcoin
Lan: We can't ban it, people always try and use what we ban. Too much publicity
Xi: Who owns the most bitcoin?
Lan: Satoshi
Xi: And we still don't know who he is?
Lan: Right but we have many old chinese miners selling equipment to the west.
Xi: Send our men to pay them a visit and make them sell their coins. We will dump the price. We will pump gold. We will destroy their narratives. Bitcoin will go down, gold will go up.
Lan: We can't do that forever we only have so many coins.
Xi: Sell futures, print money, use our cayman shells to short their ETFs, buy silver, buy copper. We will show them that their bitcoin is worthless in our new world.
Lan: Yes sir.

AI companies have no network effects
even the hardware providers with proprietary programming languages such as CUDA have zero network effects -- with LLMs, you could easily translate between one programming, language and another
you can easily take your data, your code, and your text files and move to another service provider and use a different LLM
imagine investing in an entire ecosystem with zero moat and high valuations
anyone buying physical silver is a fool, but may not know you are a fool until you try and sell it.
silver brokers are happy to sell you silver but don't want to buy it from you.
giving an artificially intelligent external api access to your email, password manager and file system is going to end so badly.
