Bitcoin is not a hedge against inflation. It's a hedge against central banking as a whole.


Inflation is a symptom of a bigger disease called central banking and unfortunately, as I post this, bitcoin is still tied to and valued in fiat currency. While people still invest in bitcoin hoping to cash out for fiat, you can be sure bitcoin will not decouple from fiat currency, and you'll see the "value" of it move with other markets tied to fiat (although we all know the real value is priceless)We know the central banking system is collapsing. The ship is sinking and they cannot keep it afloat much longer. Decades of manipulation and Bipolar policy has damaged fiat beyond repair. It's going to zero, as it has in many areas of the world already. When you buy bitcoin you should understand you're betting against the central banks. You're betting against fiat currency altogether. You're expressing your desire to see this decentralized monetary system become the standard, so you should expect to have to hold for a decade or several decades to see the vision come true. Once the fiat currency system finally collapses for good (and it will) your Bitcoin will be the only life raft you have. It will be the only life raft anyone has, and then you'll see everything else valued in satoshis.Do you think the world is going back to trading physical gold when fiat finally collapses? I don't think so. In today's world technology is important and convenience. The world will choose bitcoin when central banking dies. Get on the boat and don't sell your bitcoin for any shitcoins especially the ultimate shitcoin USD. via /r/Bitcoin https://bit.ly/3MWh0ne

Wage slave by design (post deleted in r/antiwork)

This post was deemed off topic in r/antiwork so I'm posting it here for posterity.


When you look around you and you observe the way the world works today you get this feeling that something is wrong. You see rich people with more wealth that they could possibly enjoy in a single lifetime and then you see yourself, struggling and you can't understand why, why are you living month to month barely getting by. You talk to people like r/antiwork and you find out you are not alone so you lach onto one of the popular explanations for why this is. The rich man is bad! The government is bad! The capitalist system is bad! You are being exploited at your job! etc etc

But you never learned what really is the primary cause of your suffering. And it's this: https://youtu.be/sI1C9DyIi_8

You don't understand the exponential function and just what 2% per year inflation target by your central bank really means for your money.

You don't understand that this POLICY, publicly stated by YOUR central bank, is the main reason why you can't get ahead. Because you don't think 2% per year is a big deal. You don't get how the exponential function works as it's very counter intuitive. You don't get that 2% per year means in just 35 years your money will be worth HALF of what it was on the day you earned it. And you don't understand that if they overshoot their target(again publicly stated as some sort of virtue called "price stability") and the inflation is really 7% this happens in just 10 years. 10 fucking years and your savings lose half of it's purchasing power!!

THIS is the cage you are in.

It's the monetary system of steady decrease of the value of money you earn. And guess what, the way this inflation is achieved helps out the richer getting even more rich.

I guess what the purpose of my message to you is, understand the cage you are in. Because if you fail to do this, you will never get out. Learn about money and monetary systems, support people who speak out against the current global monetary enslavement scam, put your wealth into money and assets that can't be inflated(gold, bitcoin, land, commodities) and spread this knowledge.

It's not hopeless. In fact with the invention of the internet and Bitcoin it's as hopefull as it ever was as this is a really really old scheme(think Romans old) and we have tools to fight it for the first time in human history. But you have to learn what the real problem is, the exponential function is really counter intuitive and it's how they keep you blind to just how much pain their 2% per year cuases you.

Good luck and peace out.

Regulation: two birds, one stone. My dark maximalism.

Regulation is coming for altcoins. Most of the 17,000 will disappear. This is the s-curve adoption shakeout we as bitcoiners have been warning about for years. SEC Chair Gary Gensler met with the FTC on Wednesday, and again reiterated that bitcoin is NOT a security, but that "Many, I'd say most of the others are securities."

https://twitter.com/hodlerforlife/status/1527705100059258880?s=20&t=BVRnn-2FkOVJ37GwM7CtAw

Some folks have suggested that getting designated a security won't affect their coin or protocol. They are terribly mistaken. This designation means you have to follow the established legal framework for securities:

  • You can't transfer a security to someone that is not registered to receive securities. If you do, in order to redeem it they must register. Otherwise you can transfer them freely as they are a property, but only to persons or institutions registered. International sales have their own sets of rules.
  • You cannot issue coins or tokens. This requires form S-3.
  • Insiders/Devs/DAO's cannot sell their securities without a form S-4. More importantly, they can no longer trade on material action before the public knows, which is an enormous problem currently, especially amongst exchanges. This is a crime if you are trading securities.

And so on. There is no effort to rewrite American securities laws to accommodate the unique properties of crypto, which instead will meet the burden by complying with the rigor and legal framework everything else does.

https://preview.redd.it/jvu60wzyct091.jpg?width=1074&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1e38929d5113fe526747b1a7c054527a3c402d0f

The coins-tokens-protocols that get designated securities don't have to comply of course. If they don't want to change their protocol, register their brass, and create a hierarchical chain of command for reporting, then:

  • They'll be delisted by every centralized exchange within 90 days
  • All their wallets/apps will be deleted from Apple and Google Play
  • No taxpaying company will accept them as payment
  • Promoting the ticker or coin in any way will be a crime
  • All major stablecoins will cease to operate within their protocols--and this might be the most insurmountable obstacle, because 85% of ALL altcoin volume is from stablecoins. That means nothing inside an alt protocol has established itself as money--except for stablecoins

Web3

If these projects were decentralized and impairment resistant to begin with, none of this would be happening. They just couldn't avoid those pre-mines for money though. Their founders loved the spotlight too. If they at least had fixed issuance, they could mitigate some of their problems. But besides BTC, few projects come to mind that can circumvent all these travails; the leading privacy coin certainly can; but even the coin beginning with Lite and the one represented by a dog symbol could be in danger of getting this black securities label. If delisted, the only real way to acquire these zombified things would be to take something that isn't a security (like BTC), transfer it to a DEX, then swap into it. Point is, getting designated a security is effectively a date with gravity from the 50th floor, because you are now in the sandbox with the same rules real public companies, real bonds, and real products must adhere to. Can your vaporware compete? Because if you're not money, what are you exactly? Nothing. You're an orgy of swaps, wraps, burns, mints, and stakes run by centralized dapps that do nothing but optimize token interactions to keep the orgy going. Here's a better way to say this: If your dapp is a centralized registered security with full KYC, why does it need a blockchain exactly? To shill its speculative token. There's no real business or service there.

Exchanges don't have profitable business models without a robust (expletive)coin market. Bitcoin isn't something they can control and the open source tech around it is a race to zero. Add in the fact that BTC has established itself as money, and you'll see a nascent circular economy already growing around BTC. When it gets big enough (goods services sold in BTC), then exchanges are really no longer necessary. So maybe they'll spin-off the bitcoin business, miners might acquire them, exchanges might consolidate, who knows. I do know the days of easy money are gone.

https://preview.redd.it/ycsy7yblct091.jpg?width=1884&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a30d46068016095e2677e693d4243158fd43a88

I think Gary Gensler is a bit naive on what these security designations will do to these protocols that heretofore have been hiding behind the word decentralization and acting like they're going to do something of value someday. He also doesn't understand fully what impact it will have on exchanges either. Bitcoiners are smiling of course, because two birds are getting hit with one stone. Centralized bitcoin-only exchanges (and apps) like Block's CashApp, Strike, Swan, etcetera won't be burdened with any of this extra paperwork, insurance costs, lawsuits, lawyers, or blockchain forensic add-ons.

My dark maximalism really starts sweating through my shirt thinking about the bloody mess of red ink we'll be mopping up though.

People who say you can't use BTC in real life are ignorant

So I'm fully invested in BTC and have believed for a while that it's main use is as a store of value specially against inflation.

However I had a weird thing happen today as I couldn't buy from an online store (CBD) I've purchased before with my regular visa/Mastercard cards, yet saw the store accepted BTC.

Decided to try it out and it worked no problem. It's amazing that with it's vast global network MC could not approve the payment (credit was more than fine) yet BTC network had absolutely no problem.

I almost immediately bought some more tasty dips of BTC mind you, but it's quite a simple proof that it's not just a sore of value, or a hedge against inflation, or a way to transfer value internationally. It's good for all of that and more.

Satoshi said, "If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry." This applies to both billionaires that are non-bitcoiners and alt-coiners.

I don't know what is going through Bill Gates' mind, nor do I care too much with regards to Bitcoin. He is only 25 years younger than Warren Buffett, but he is a billionaire and he isn't one of those people that "needs" bitcoin. He has so much money that he could probably find a way send it to North Korea without using bitcoin or cryptocurrency and find a way to conceal it - and if he were to be caught I'm sure he would only get a slap on the wrist.

Without lingering on any billionaires in particular, when they reach that status, they have access to financial services that you and I do not. I don't want to put the Winklevoss twins on a pedestal that is any higher or lower than Bill Gates (or vice versa), but I'm pretty sure that both parties can get access to better banking services than 99% of the people who are browsing this sub right now.

The kind of way that we hold idols and their remarks towards something is entirely unimportant because it changes nothing. Maybe it's a technology thing. Who knows? I've been buying bitcoin since 2017, but didn't start using uber or uber eats until 2021. Last but not least, I don't see the reason why a billionaire would need bitcoin in this lifetime.

Michael Saylor: "Let's go back to October of 2020 ... I think Bitcoin was 12,800... NASDAQ was 11,000 and change, and gold was higher than it is now. And if you roll the clock forward 24 months, Bitcoin is up by a factor of 2.75. Gold is down. NASDAQ is sideways."

I got my favorite local deli to take payments in BTC


So there's a local deli where I work and I eat at this deli at least twice a week. At their front register, they have a laminated sign that reads "CASH IS KING- we appreciate payment in cash is possible." I've developed a relationship with the manager/owner over time and I asked why they prefer cash payments, and it basically boils down to credit card fees eating away at their profit margin.As the relationship grew, we got to talking about how nobody carries cash anymore and everyone pays with a card or their phone. I asked them if there was a digital way to receive for them to get paid, but had virtually no fees if they would like me to show them how to set it up. They were super interested and I was able to get them set up on lightning.So now, I get to pay for my lunch with BTC on the lightning network. via /r/Bitcoin https://bit.ly/3G8w66n

Michael Saylor on the current dip: "This mini-meltdown is going to give a lot of energy, a lot of momentum, to the movement to publish clear guidelines for digital currencies and digital securities and digital exchanges. And I really think that Bitcoin benefits from all those."

Russia could legalise cryptocurrencies as means of payment - industry minister


Please don't get too political on this. This is really huge, and I can assure you, that this guy's words can mean a lot (as the Russian newspapers are catching up with the news already)​UPD: bad translation from Reuters. He actually said "Cryptocurrency will DEFINITELY be legalized"https://reut.rs/39uSLh0 via /r/Bitcoin https://bit.ly/3ljiEmG

Why is it only after people's alts get wrecked against Bitcoin that people realize they should be Bitcoin only?


Some people have to learn the hard way that only Bitcoin is the way to go. Everything else is gambling. There is such a high chance the others won't be around in 5 years.People used to post those images of "Wow it just keeps going up! LOL!" and you warn them it won't always be like that and you get downvoted into oblivion. Now you visit the same sections and it's depressing. via /r/Bitcoin https://bit.ly/3sEC49y
