Hey @elonmusk:

In 1900, Nikola Tesla envisaged "a principled machine" as the end of war. Today, that machine is #Bitcoin

“...a machine embodying a higher principle, which will enable it to perform its duties as though it had intelligence, experience, judgement, a mind!”
The difficulty adjustment of #Bitcoin makes it the world’s first “intelligent” money: it forever shifts the game of property into digital space, and makes the battle of establishing consensus on ownership “a mere spectacle, a play, a contest without loss of blood.”
Above quotes from "The Problem of Increasing Human Energy" by Nikola Tesla, available here:

From my perspective: #Bitcoin is the War on War

Thread in response to @jordanbpeterson's inquiry about @profplum99's recently published disparagement of #Bitcoin and Bitcoiners.

CLAIM: “Namely, that our inevitable flaws, including our lack of perfect foresight, require guardrails to reduce the risk of unintended consequences, like, for example, speculation in “low-risk” mortgages that drove a global financial crisis.”
Contrary to the popular misconception, the 2008 great financial crisis was driven by the eurodollar system (cc: @JeffSnider_AIP), a consequence of central banking.

Private property rights can equally be called private property responsibilities. A proprietor is incentivized to take responsibility for the assets he owns to maximize the usefulness and longevity of the rights they bestow upon him.
"Give a man the secure possession of a bleak rock and watch him turn it into a garden.

Give a man a 9-year lease on a garden and watch him convert it into a desert.

The magic of property turns sand into gold."
Fiat currency inflation is a violation of private property—the arbitrary movement of wealth from one set of hands to another.

Inflation is a legally enforced injustice; it disincentivizes prudence and triggers a widespread abdication of responsibility among market actors.

Sovereignism Part 2: #Bitcoin, The Ultimate Offshore Bank

breedlove22.medium.com/sovereignism-p…
International waters have historically been the greatest geographic safe haven from nation-states. Gamblers, pirates, smugglers, and other sinners seeking to engage in state-condemned activities willingly make use of this ungovernable territory.
This oceanic realm is rife with high degrees of risk, reward, and self-responsibility. But exactly why is maritime law so different from the legal systems operating within terrestrial nation-states?

A thread summarizing "Sovereignism Part 1: Digital Creative Destruction"

My 12-part essay series explores the digital disrup­tion of the nation-state and the subse­quent amplification of individual sover­eignty during the digital age.

Let's dive in ⬇️
Statism is a system of socioe­co­nomic organi­za­tion which origi­nated in the Indus­trial Age. Statism includes all state imple­men­ta­tions of capitalism, commu­nism, fascism, and all other state ‑isms; it does not refer to these ideolo­gies in any pure sense.
Statist imple­men­ta­tions arose in the 20th century, when the only known mode of sustain­able human organi­za­tion was a top-down, centrally controlled nation-state.

Every law, every social norm, every civil liberty, every human right, every culture: the authority and longevity of socioeconomic order itself is shaped by the one true (meaning, free market selected) sovereignty system active in the world today—gold.
Gold remains the singular dominant money in the world. In the unregulated geopolitical sphere, nation-states go to war over it, fund war with it, and the victors write new laws.
Gold is the call option on all human creativity past and present, since it lays claim to all savings in society. Gold is absolute power.

All socioeconomic systems we think have power are really just derivatives of this ancient golden reservoir of sovereignty.

A quick thread walking through some of my latest piece "Our Most Brilliant Idea" where I explore the nature of ideas, their generative source, and (of course) #Bitcoin

swanbitcoin.com/our-most-brill…
Ideas are the origins of everything we say, do, or make. The purpose of any economy is to generate and share useful ideas through free trade (to achieve what economists call the division of labor or knowledge specialization).
Resultant knowledge encodes the patterns of action we use to etch our imaginations into the world around us. Winning ideas are chosen by the market, only to be widely distributed as material riches, finer manners and morals, and more profound art.
