Summary

Carlota Perez's Technological Revolutions and Financial Capital is a framework that divides technological paradigm shifts into installation and deployment phases.

Recent developments support the idea that we are moving into the deployment phase for bitcoin.

This will lead to widespread adoption of bitcoin as an asset class, and an ecosystem of business necessary to allow institutions to invest in it.

A large amount of institutional capital will move into a small market driving prices higher.

Thus, God himself wills it—and/or God is powerless to intervene against it—and/or God does not know the future, such that he can stop evil from occurring.


Do not fret because of those who are evil
or be envious of those who do wrong;
for like the grass they will soon wither,
like green plants they will soon die away.

Trust in the Lord and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him and he will do this:
 
He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,
your vindication like the noonday sun.
 
Be still before the Lord
and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when people succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
 
Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret—it leads only to evil.
 
For those who are evil will be destroyed,
but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

A little while, and the wicked will be no more;
though you look for them, they will not be found.
But the meek will inherit the land
and enjoy peace and prosperity.
 
The wicked plot against the righteous
and gnash their teeth at them;
but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
for he knows their day is coming

 

... pleasant sentiment but it's a lot like the Fermi paradox "Where is he?"

... for as long as I've been alive wicked people have run amok on the Planet. Looking back in history I don't really seen it has been a whole lot different.

... hope is not a plan.

since summer I made it a habit to listen to bitcoin podcasts. the amount of good content about bitcoin is impressive. let´s take Guy Swann as an example. he has spit out more than 400 episodes, mainly just reading essential bitcoin pieces but also good interviews and talks. it just lately dawned on me that he got in bitcoin around 2017. and lots of really good writings about bitcoin were created by folks who got into bitcoin 2018 or even later.

in a time period where I contemplated how I can fire up my full node those guys learned about bitcoin, jumped down the rabbit hole, went all-in, started to live and breathe bitcoin, started to work for bitcoin, started to educate others about bitcoin and got to a position where I can learn from them about bitcoin.

I always thought being active in this forum and checking for bitcoin related news would sort of keep me up to date. but fuck no, I have to admit that this isn't the case. intellectual laziness spotted.

not only has my knowledge and insight about bitcoin gotten deeper, in addition my attitude towards and believe in bitcoin has improved. I don't think I was ever that confident about the future of bitcoin.

also, it seems that folks that got in later are able to learn quicker than it was possible for example in 2013. they seem to start on a different foundation.

here are some examples of good bitcoin podcasts.

https://bitcoinaudible.com/

https://citizenbitcoin.world

https://swansignalpodcast.com

https://www.whatbitcoindid.com

which podcasts can you recommend?


Besides those listed by VB1001 in this link,
I will also add:

Bitcoin Rapid-fire by John Vallis

Bitcoin takeover Podcast by Vlad Costea

Election time is coming. So nobody will go in a high risk position. I don't think we will see any sharp moves for 2 weeks more. We can enjoy life a bit with less positions.

Btw crazy thing is really vaccine announcement is depend on elections? Since Trump is using that argument to get more votes.

Consciousness expands
Psilocybin mushroom quest

I always loved shrooms
in unoccupied nature
and LSD too

Drugs tell no truths.  They do not “expand” consciousness, but dissolve it.  They can turn you into a superstitious nitwit, with voluntarily self-inflicted mental retardation plus schizophrenia.  That is all.



Don’t get me wrong.  Self-harm and suicide are absolute rights, abrogated only by the worst of slave states.  The solution to drug abuse is to give users more drugs; it is cleansing, and even eugenic.

...self-limiting problem...

No more superstitious than somebody who has never experienced psychedelics for themselves but label them as "bad" without fully understanding them.

Psychedelic drugs aren't addictive and can be quite educational if you let them work their magic.

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

I have missed the posts about bitcoin podcasts in march of this year.

just slammed them all in one post, it is a bit redundant and sloppy. I did not know that they were so abundant. very cool, I will check them all out. when someone first hears about bitcoin it seems overwhelmingly complicated. when going down the rabbit hole and one "gets it" it seems to be actually not that complicated at all: a global ledger on a peer2peer network telling us who owns what that gets audited every 10 minutes and is neither forgeable nor stoppable. but when you go down deeper the details, structures, principles, incentives and emerging functionalities again do get overwhelmingly complex.

I can only recommend to all of you, no matter how long into the space: dig deeper down the rabbit hole, it is rewarding. the protocol may need to ossify, but not your brain.

No more superstitious Infinitely more rational than somebody who has never experienced psychedelics for themselves but label them as "bad" without fully understanding irreparably damaging one’s own abilities of ratiocination with them.

Psychedelic drugs aren't addictive —“oh, yes, I can stop forever anytime I want!”— and can be quite educational conducive to detaching oneself from reality, so as to live in a fantasy— if you let them work their magic menticide.

Don't knock it until you've tried it intentionally made yourself psychotic and thus, compromised your own judgment to the degree that you should not trust yourself, and others should definitely distrust you.

FYFY.  Your advice cheap rationalization of your own stupidly self-destructive behaviour is duly filed in “taken under advisement”. 🗑️



Who the fuck would be sufficiently moronic to believe the opinion of somebody who has used hallucinogenic substances, on the subject of hallucinogenic substances?  (No, wait.  Don’t answer that.  Robots, faster—please!)

Let's see the retrospective charts with latest Election day, in 2016

There is uncertainly before the Election day and after it. Trump will not leave WhiteHouse immediately after the Election day and he has months to do something with his President power. Let's skip the future scenarios and do retrospective findings on how Bitcoin (in price and volume) changed before and after the Election day 4 years ago (in 2016).


Price increased and volume rose too. The question is "Will the history repeat its steps?". I don't know and the conditions from SES (socialeconomic status) to public health problems and political environment in this year is very different than in 2016.

my favorite is Guy Swann since he is reading a lot of interesting and mainly essential bitcoin writings and sometimes interviews the authors later.

https://anchor.fm/thecryptoconomy*


*it is now called bitcoinaudible.com but the anchor link above presents it better imho. indeed, Guy started his podcast in March 2018. that is just 2.5 years ago.


most bitcoin podcasters seem to be married to Austrian economics. has anyone heard of a good btc podcast that tries to do this from a Keynesian point of view? I don't get why Keynes is hated so much by bitcoiners. I don't think he was wrong. government intervention in economic crisis is good imho. what governments worldwide did not do was the other thing that is part of keynes theory: in healthy economic periods governments should save capital in order to have dry powder for the next crisis. the governments just kept spending and printing more money.

... hope is not a plan.

correct. faith, however, is. and i dont mean "faith" as in it will protect you from standing on the tracks when a train comes at you; thats just stupidity.. and it seems far to many seem to think their "faith" will protect them in such manners.

however this thread isnt the place for any real discussion on this.

to each there own. i dont force my faith on others, and dont expect others to force theirs on me. let and let live works for me.

i will say this though. give a good read on the texts on the various flavors of faith (not saying you havent btw, this is for others reading this post who may not of). dont blindly accept anything on others words alone. look at their actions, then decide if its worth a look.

Anyone who uses the word "drugs" to describe naturally occuring psilocybin clearly has absolutely no idea what they are talking about, and probably categorizes marijuana and heroin as equally "bad" because the TV told them so.

Hemlock is also “naturally occurring”.  As are arsenic, mercury, and lead.  Plus plenty of other mushrooms!

Anyone who uses the term “naturally occurring” as a criterion for “safe and healthy to take into your body” has brain damage.

nullius, all you are doing is highlighting your ignorance of the subject. have a fantastic morning.

No doubt more than a few people would call me “ignorant” of Jesus.

The inversion of reality to proclaim inferiority and irrationality as superior knowledge is—typical of a certain type.  And there is a pretty good historical hypothesis that much religiosity has been caused by “naturally occurring” drugs—much more Amanita muscaria than psilocybin.  Hmmm.

I won’t deign seriously to argue with your druggie religion any more than I debate Christian evangelicals.

and probably categorizes marijuana and heroin as equally "bad" because the TV said so.

No, I categorize marijuana as very bad based on my life experience of having known hardcore stoners who burnt their brains out with the stuff.  Young and brilliant—some of them could have been smarter than I am.  Among other experience which is perfectly consistent with all of the bad, bad things that people say about marijuana.



reefer madness from 1936 - the one the usa government made. grab a fattie and enjoy.

Thanks, but I am not such a big fan of the cinema.  (And only drug addicts are stupid enough to put up the strawman that Reefer Madness is the primary source of alarm over the deleterious effects of marijuana.)
