Oddbean new post about login | logout Did he actually call them "central planners"? I listened through the whole interview and don't remember anything like that. To my ears at least, his message was that we need to be very deliberate and slow with changes to the base protocol.
He implies it, listen to this clip: https://x.com/TheBTCTherapist/status/1794590112984252465
Twitter is broken for me so I'll just take your word for it. I agree that the interview was heavy on hyperbole. I didn't particularly care for the "changes to bitcoin are inflationary" argument.
His example of a change was doubing issuance to 42M. A deeply unserious strawman take on the kind of change people advocate for. He could at least pretend to have a nuanced take but that would require him to say the quiet part out loud, Saylor doesn't care about scaling censorship resistant non custodial usage. If we get covenants through we may be able to do away with him and his banking buddies. As the protocol stands now, we will not and he likes that.
