It's the weaponization of behavioral economics through an all-powerful, spyware, closed-loop, financial system.
Apparently, the banking class has no upper limit on hubris.
20/ Bitcoin is the perfect collateral
And the perfect settlement medium between nations. Scarce, verifiable, doesn't require trusting counterparty
I fear bancor 2.0 will be attempted, but Bitcoin is the future reserve asset
The only question is: will Bitcoin be ready by 2030?
22/ The pieces are set, but the game's not over.
Yes, we're trending towards totalitarianism. But all is not lost.
We still have #Bitcoin to serve as protection against tyranny. A beacon of hope during the cold dark night.
Will we end in Tragedy or Triumph?
END/ By 2030, we'll complete this 4th Turning.
We'll have winners and losers. Global order will be reshaped.
Hopefully, we begin the next saeculum on a sturdy foundation enabling a new era of prosperity.
Fasten your seatbelts... This decade will define the next 100 years.

Thanks to @HoweGeneration for inspiring me with your ideas. I've learned so much. We'll talk about your stance on Bitcoin another day :)
Just as fungi and plants formed a symbiotic relationship to colonize dry land, humans can form symbiosis with Bitcoin to improve as individuals and to advance our species.
1/ Just finished reading Mycophilia by @eugeniabone — here’s a thread of fun #fungi facts 👇
2/ Chlorophyll in plants convert sunshine into chemical energy to feed the plant.
Some fungi convert subatomic particles (including nuclear waste) into chemical energy to feed the fungi.
Reminder: bitcoin converts energy into money to feed the network.
3/ Why do leaf cutter ants collect leaves? Decoration?
Combining leaves + a few things laying around the house ( saliva, feces, bacteria) they create a compost farm providing food for the colony. The fungi benefit from life without competition.

2/ Millennial's Guide to Bitcoin
*Get in their head. Speak in their language. Boomers borrowed against your future, too much student debt, can't buy land, this is your best chance to be wealthy, who cares about a shiny rock, buy bitcoin.
3/ Goldbug's Guide to Bitcoin
*Should probably be written by a goldbug, former bitcoin skeptic, recently converted. Should be "gold AND bitcoin."
