Bitcoiners, not Bitcoin. Or more broadly, those who build and use freedom tech.
The most important thing on our lives would obviously be Bitcoin but at the current moment... Idk fed injecting 30b in liquidity overnight feels pretty important.
My 20m son is super into cars and so more than half of words he knows start with "car". Carpool, carpet, capitan, cow... As soon as it sounds like "car" he's into it.

that #permaculture solves most of the world's problems but remains relatively unknown.
Chinese public investment in quantum computing. China's *disclosed* public investment in quantum is around 3 to 4 times the cumulative U.S. private investment. Yeah. And that's only the announced commitment for major projects. McKinsey thinks it might be $150 billion across the latest 5-year plan. And that could be a gaping underestimate! Results mostly undisclosed. We have no real idea what breakthroughs have or have not happened, are on the verge of happening, or anything much else about what's going on there really. Just think of what happens when the world gets its first 2k logical qubit quantum computer (or qubit alternative if qubits are not in fact the best way to go), whatever country it happens to be in. Especially if this happens sooner rather than later. What an insane chaos lever to be able to pull, and we'll likely be nowhere near ready when it gets pulled. Like what Y2K was goofily made out to be—but real this time!

I mean it’s certainly not binary I use it everyday to create tons of personal value but pull the thread on where this all goes and it quickly gets to a point where power and its value is consolidated to a few people.

My theory is that quantum computing will very soon make the cryptography of today’s cryptocurrency instantly obsolete, but people aren’t ready to think about that
That’s why none of it ever gets traction, the Scandal is so big, so deep, so pervasive, any one part of it is a drop in an oceanic fraud. That’s the biggest story. It starts at A and ends at Z.
Or "it's 15 years away at least". As if you can just plant a stake some arbitrary number of years in the future and proclaim that nothing will happen before then.

The fact that global capital is plowing money into "Big AI" startups that never turned a profit with a dubious architecture that locks us into a retarded path dependency and grid/data center overbuild. All based on hopium . Imagine cucking to the government just because you can't figure out a scalable business. What's in it for the globalists and the government? I say it's the promise of control and total capture of the economy. Central Planning 2.0. At CASCDR we reject those answers and build on a technically sound foundation.

Ukraine about to destroy russian oil industry. It's going well, check Jake Broe's or Jason Smart's YT channels. Interesting ...
