1/ #Bitcoin grows in “hype cycles” that mimic fungal reproduction.

We’ve entered "Stage 2: Mushroom" (bull market)

Quick thread 👇
2/ Fungi 101 (for the uninitiated)

Fungi primarily exist as "mycelium." Think underground internet that connects a forest to create a super-organism

Fungi reproduce by producing mushrooms that release spores (~seeds)

Lucky spores create new fungal colonies & cycle continues
3/ Stage 1: Bear Market (Mycelium)

Majority of a fungus' life is underground. Quietly mining resources and trading with neighbors

Most of bitcoin’s life is boring (no hype). However, the hodlers underground are learning, self-custody, running nodes, building businesses, etc

1/ A quick thread about #Bitcoin and the power of incentives.

For Bitcoin to reach global dominance, it must inspire a vibrant ecosystem of allies.

"Show me the incentives, and I'll show you the outcome."

Let's go 👇
2/ Bitcoin attracts new users for many reasons

- Get wealthy
- Stay Wealthy
- Preserve Freedom
- Minimize violence
- Empower the poor
- Increase prosperity in the world

Users are incentivized to defend the network, improve the network, and onboard new users to the network
3/ Investors buy Bitcoin to generate wealth.

"Bitcoin was designed to pump forever" - @matt_odell

Bitcoin is the best trade of the century. Will be obvious in hindsight. Massive wealth transfer coming.

1/ We've entered the "Fourth Turning."

The final act in a drama beginning at the end of WWII.

The old social order combusts and gives birth to new political, social, and economic structures. Let's explore through a #Bitcoin lens

Thread 👇
2/ This essay expands on concepts presented in The Fourth Turning by @HoweGeneration.

Economic inequality, failing institutions, cultural decay, and the rise of populism were all predicted (and are easily explained) by this theory.

Let's dive in...
3/ Modern humans view time as a linear phenomenon. A steady march of progress.

However, life doesn’t progress linearly. Instead, it follows a natural rhythm, a circle of life if you will.

1/ A quick thread exploring 12 Reasons to Buy Bitcoin.

Let's go 👇
2/ Bitcoin is the performing asset of the last decade.

How could you not own the best performing asset of the last decade?

Not even .1%, seriously?
3/ Bitcoin thrives on uncertainty/chaos.

We’re halfway through 2020 and it feels like a decade has gone by.

Bitcoin was born for this.

1/ Bitcoin is a catalyst of human evolution.

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.

Part 4: Symbiosis

medium.com/@BrandonQuitte…

Thread 👇
2/ Bootstrapping life on dry land

500m years ago, all life was in the ocean. Dry land was devoid of life, until plants + fungi formed a partnership.

This symbiosis created a cascade of evolutionary forces leading to the creation of all terrestrial life, including homo sapiens
3/ Fungi effectively domesticated photosynthesis machines (algae) to harness a self sustaining food source.

We can think of these algae as little solar panels bolted onto fungal networks which made colonizing virgin dry land possible.
