A couple of novel thoughts. Quote In other words, Bitcoin used computer code to reject what is seemingly the key advantage of computer code: its status as a nonscarce good. Instead, it built scarcity into the code. Incredible, isn't it?

It really underscores the brilliance and value behind the code and explains it in layman's terms with historical context to boot. I think Tucker must have got some help with this as he just started getting into BTC recently. Maybe he's a really quick learner and I'm not giving him enough credit though.

Most press just revert to gold is better, gold is best, gold gold gold... Great to see someone who understands Bitcoin offers some advantages over gold.
