The Economic Report of the President (ERP) is the annual report by the Council of Economic Advisers.

It’s the first ERP since 2019 to mention #Bitcoin. Now it effectively has its own chapter.

It’s a hot mess. Strap in.
1/9
🤦‍♂️Intro kicks off with this 💩

To confirm #Bitcoin:
- has fundamental value as an asset & as tech
- is used in many places where fiat currencies fail
- provides 1.4 billion unbanked access to financial services
- enables quick, cheap, final settlement anywhere in the world
2/9
Report assets that #Bitcoin is an ineffective inflation hedge.

Misses the point: #Bitcoin is a hedge against money supply inflation (not supply-side lead inflation).

As we’re seeing. Right now.

“Ejection from the banking system can be random. Happens for political reasons...it’s more devastating than being on probation for having been convicted for something, because not being able to bank in 2023 is akin to not being able to function in society.”

NY has become the first state to start constraining PoW mining

Worth noting that advocates backing this aren’t following the science & experts' opinions

e.g. @jyn_urso @thetrocro et al

1/5
Hydro accounts for 73% of NYs renewable energy generation.

Worth remembering then that #Bitcoin mining in NY did this…

2/5
#Bitcoin miners supply high-paying jobs to areas hollowed by manufacturing exodus

“Majority of the mining projects in upstate New York, at least 11, are relying not on on-site gas turbines but the electric grid with a relatively clean mix upstate”

- Why inflation is theft
- Building a society based on truth
- #Bitcoin’s network effects

whatbitcoindid.com/podcast/findin…
“Theft in money will divide us all, and that theft in money will take us likely to war and maybe the end of human species… or it will concentrate all control in very few super overlords... It’ll look like China’s social credit system on steroids.”
