There’s something in the bitcoin space my brain can’t process. It doesn’t eat at me, but it causes lots of thoughts about how humans view things.

Bitcoin is the money to end all moneys
I did some mindblowing math because I couldn’t believe this.
If you made $500k every day since the Great Pyramids were built, you would have less than half of what the U.S. Gov has borrowed since June.
I did the math on this.
Pyramids build 2550 BC
930,750 days plus every year after AD into 2023 plus 18 days in January 738,413 = 1,669,163 days since pyramids were built.
1,669,163 x 500,000 = 834,581,500, 000 basically 834.6 billion
According to data the government last year borrowed 816 billion from Jan- march of last year. In the final three months of last year they borrowed 776 billion so in six months they borrowed nearly 1.6 trillion.
This should tell you how insolvent everything is
I asked AI to make pictures of Peter Schiff as Gold Member 

Jaime Dimon is Phillip Price from Mr Robot
Don’t worry, 1 bitcoin is still one bitcoin.
How will we buy new bitcoin when it all leaves exchanges? Serious question.
Wild stat
Let’s say all bitcoins had to be divided amongst everyone on the planet
It would come out to .002625
Right now 111.36 cents
This doesn’t include all the bitcoin lost.
So play this scenario out, let’s say the world lived on a bitcoin standard
It would cost far less than 111 dollars to function on a bitcoin standard. The more people hoard coins the less it becomes price wise for the world to function because the market sets the prices
Mind blown
A little behind on this interview but my goodness. Every person needs to listen to this.
@Peter McCormack has the most wide range of guests and does his best to travel and stay out of an echo chamber.
This interview really affected me.
Every time someone tells me when they don’t own bitcoin and why they prefer to stay in this system I end up buying more bitcoin, not trying to spite them or say I told you so. I just want to help them when the time is right by distributing my coins.
My whole goal comes with helping people unlearn. I love them too much to not try.
If you are a bitcoiner and you haven’t watched Mr Robot you may want to change that.
“Practically everyone is unequipped to evaluate bitcoin because it does not fit into any prior mental framework, to make it even more difficult Bitcoin is so abstract in application and so far from a tangible phenomenon that it’s like staring into the abyss. Bitcoin is both difficult to see and impossible to unsee once discovered”
Parker Lewis quote. I get it. I can’t unsee it.
Bitcoin such a philosophical mind change. It reverses cynicism
The debate on whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie is irrelevant.
Die Hards subtext is much deeper.
John McClain represents the working class American, notice in the movie that John only trust working class people, the cop, the driver, the security guard who he banters with.
Hans is the complete opposite of McClain in that he represents Greed on a massive scale.
Holly, Johns wife represents America torn between two world ideas and pulled by the allure of greed.
the watch becomes "americas bribe"
it becomes symbolic that letting go if the watch finishes Gruber.
Outside of the Nakatomi Plaza sits the symbolic government in the form of police and FBI, they operqte by the book and Hans knows every move they make. it shows how government is powerless to stop this.
notice the similarities between Ellis and Hans, they look the same. Ellis thinks he speaks Hans language.
As far as Christmas, it's used as a tool to illustrate the point. use a massive consumer holiday to explore greed.
Just had the most amazing conversation with @Daniellaio
Thank you. Bitcoin brought us together
@preston not sure if you’ve seen this display. This is the exponential that @Jeff Booth talks about. From 5:20 to about 10 minute mark they give a display.
What’s the longest anyone has had a lightning network payment delay?
Does anyone know if grayscale is backed one to one? Need to find out
