BITCOIN vs CENTRAL POWER!
The first true idealists of the free market...
October 25, 2023

Brief Summary

In this episode, we dive into the world of Bitcoin, which challenges the traditional market narrative. Unlike previous advancements, Bitcoin doesn't serve rulers or their gains. It acts as a store of value and protects against inflation and manipulation. Bitcoin attracts moral idealists, disrupting the wealth transfer dynamic. Leaders see Bitcoin as a threat, as it competes with fiat currency and empowers individuals over centralized control. This clash between idealism and established powers is reminiscent of past battles. Join us as we delve into the significance of Bitcoin's moral mission and its potential to reshape our understanding of currency.

"Since you are all very clever readers, you will be replying to me in your mind something along the lines of this: 'Ah, you say, Mr. Philosopher, that no one can accurately predict the future, but you also state that hitting children has negative outcomes!'

That is certainly true – both that I make that claim, and that hitting children does have generally negative outcomes.

However, we do not judge the morality of hitting children based upon positive or negative outcomes.
