You when faced with a basic contradiction in your faith.

a cartoon of a robot saying that does not compute . ALT: a cartoon of a robot saying that does not compute .

You unable to answer the most basic of questions. 😂

Reducing you to “does not compute” is hilarious.

Broke your programming again.

😂

Broke you again.

😂

So you do wait twenty minutes for your burger.

Can’t see that catching on.

Sound money: money that no one should ever spend and which explodes inequality to unheard of levels.

You: let’s have money that discourages spending and investment and which massively increases inequality.

Great plan.

😂

But how do they do that? Which of the three options?

Do you really have to stand in line for twenty minutes waiting for the transaction to clear?

Broke your programming again.

😂

I broke you again.

😂

Honestly, that you don’t understand such a basic concept should shock you and maybe reconsider if you understand this stuff.

Cash doesn’t increase in value. It does the opposite.

So investing it is essential if you don’t want to see it decrease in value.

It’s literally one of the few good properties of the modern monetary system. That and the fact it makes entrepreneurship and home buying possible for more people.

We’re taking about your beloved burger.

Which of the three options does it use?

You: can’t explain how bitcoin can be used practically as you can only have 7 transactions per second, worldwide.

😂

Not if hoarding cash gives the same return with zero risk.

Basic economics, and obvious human nature. I’m shocked you struggle to understand it.

Which of the three options does it use?

Now do cash…

Repeat after me.

You can’t remove noise.

That is what makes it noise.

I did like the fact that he also thinks obesity, addiction and mental health problems are due to money. Human nature is apparently irrelevant.

On a serious note the I do find the slow, Brian Cox like delivery extremely off putting. It comes off like he thinks he’s talking to a moron.

I understand that guy doesn’t understand how money works.

He thinks most money is created by the government.

Anyone who makes such a spectacular error can be safely ignored.

What don’t I understand about money?

I understand that a lot of the things you think of weaknesses are actually strengths.

It’s been six months since the last “skynet is here” nonsense, we were overdue.

Anything that doesn’t require a substack membership?

Also the first post is pretty pointless. Why use a bunch of basic fitting routines to “fit” to bitcoin when you already know it basically just tracks software stocks?

That doesn’t cover the claim made above though.

It also seems a bit pointless to spend 2/3rds of a book explaining something I understand.

Odd that you found it convincing enough for you, but you know it’s not rigorous enough for me.

But apparently these sources you found so convincing cannot be shared with outsiders. You aren’t doing much to dispel that it’s a cult like belief.

YOUR source. The one YOU trusted. It might well be correct. I’d like to look at their methodology.

If I claimed 50% of bitcoins were used for crime you wouldn’t just believe me. I’m certainly not going to believe an anonymous account who has already proven themselves to be extremely gullible.

I am curious. That’s why I asked you for the source you are unable to supply.

😂

Says the one making a claim that can’t even provide the source for.

😂
