Oddbean new post about login | logout Bitcoin is winning. It’s “the next logical step”. Presidential candidates are forced to have a position on it. https://m.primal.net/HebA.mov
Bullish on the fact that a major presidential candidate didn’t dismiss it as a tool of terrorists. Baby steps.
It’s crazy how much the perspective has shifted. I still remember how insane it seemed just to have normie land acknowledge its existence when I saw the bitcoin episode of The Good Wife back in 2012. Oh, how far we have come.
It’ll be bigger than the state and the central banks as more and more people pay and invest in #bitcoin
#griftmas season
This is uuuuge 😂
Do they tax capital gains in the States? In India, we have to pay 30% 🙄 tax on crypto gains
They do but it’s the same rate as other capital gains
Cool. Thanks!
The Interviewer pushed the narrative! That’s HUGE! Who cares if Donald accepts it, he’s old an white and rich….the Interviewer PUSHED the narrative!
”Old, white and rich…” what do you mean? Is old, white and rich bad things? Are you just one of the woke racists? In that case GO FUCK YOURSELF
You push code all the fucking time, while the pusherman, pushes to you. 😗 https://i.nostrimg.com/891f6dd243518c1f244c7b9bd4fc82602bdda6025bd9c645344712381ae8d23b/file.jpeg
You have to is a very good joke. https://i.nostrimg.com/a9e2289b641ce53cb25c07951eeebd7228b56ee27ad01dd5f7efac6805315dce/file.jpeg
And that’s the funny punchline, when big bro watches you. 🤣😂🤣😂😒
Fuck her and her husband. They have to. 🗝️
Not just a position - a truly incoherent position
Way more coherent than an ETH position. The dollar is the best shitcoin to pair with bitcoin.
Of course he likes the dollar, he and all rich people lives on inflated asset valuations that they leverage for more phony money. Imagine Trump's life on a #bitcoin standard.
I haven’t followed this election cycle much but it is a surprise to see a candidate that can complete a sentence and a thought- even if it’s a bad take. Baby steps lol
“I call it a currency”… Trumpism at its best.
once Trump gets major Bitcoin donations it'll change his tune "Bitcoin everyone loves Bitcoin, Bitcoin is the greatest invention since Apple pie... it's true."
Nobody is going to waste bitcoin on that clown.
Personally I don’t trust snakes. But the game theory have started to play.
Nevermind the answer, observe the delivery of the question here. nostr:nevent1qqs9c227ya4wcl0455pvayp59ux2p4a5wwp89sep0t5pl8azs20vzrgpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdupzq3e0gs8jnmued6f2rp4c6vs07xqvs4vs8zpwt82smcdch4txjvq7qvzqqqqqqys64hed
"I've always liked one powerful thing I can print as much of as I want and that's the dollar." Ok, parasite
He still has no idea what bitcoin or probably even money is.
Basically what he said. He has no clue about sound money and circular economics.
Why does he like the dollar? Why do his voters like when he says that? The US exports dollars and imports most other things— this seems counterintuitive to what his voters would like which is US manufacturing etc All of this is too hidden (on purpose) so most wouldn’t get it and we just have to wait
Trump likes the dollar because he benifits from the Cantillon Effect. Trump voters think Trump will get them closer to the money spigot. They're wrong. The system is heading towards hyperinflation and it doesn't matter which branch of the uniparty wins. They don't even pretend otherwise anymore. If this election is the most important election in our lifetimes, why have we not seen either of these eight decade old people debate? We talk a lot about the orange pill. It took me a long time to fully grasp this concept. Fiat is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. The NPC's in the crowd applaud the dollar because they took the green pill and are stuck in the fiat matrix.
My eye-opening moment was when I realized that due to a ludicrous expense ratio, my employer-provided retirement fund was just funding that company's employees, who take our money to the markets, no different than Vegas, like the fucking degenerate gamblers they are. It's a pure casino. Second, most people don't want the responsibility of becoming their own bank. They don't have the time, energy, nor the self respect required to do so. They're quite happy sucking that USD dick.
They are forced to gamble. Fiat is designed to lose value. You are forced to buy stocks that will be taxed later to prop up the corporations. Before bitcoin, you could not opt-out of this shell game. You could buy gold. It did better than real estate over the last 50 years, but it did not beat the Boggle heads.
How to say you're retarded without saying your retarded.
'I like the dollar."
Fucking idiot - and Uncle Tom is clapping to his masters nonsense.
"...nobody before has probably heard of it but I did, yeah I did... Actually I'm the biggest expert on this and many people might not know it but I invented it, yeah I did.... - I invented the currency called the dollar and its been the greatest invention of all times, the best..."
that's the wrong position....the dollar he loves is a failure
Loving the dollar isn't a bad thing. Every human on the planet has been dealing with the Federal Reserve Note since 1913. Now, finally, the average citizen is understanding that we literally pay interest to use a private corporations product, the Federal Reserve Note.. We borrow every one from The FED.. We pay interest to use it and we have to pay off the debt to boot.
His remarks have to be because he has RamySmawy in his ear. Trump sounded VERY different on bitcoin back when he was El Prez. The times, they are a changin!
He probably has a nice profit at this point. He's also understanding he could start up mining operations in every one of his properties and link into the energy/heating systems and save a bunch of money on energy along with maybe even selling excess power back to the grid. And then he's got the earnings from mining subsidies & transaction fees.. Bitcoin will never be stopped with the advent of Mini Miners. Geez, a one man sandwich shop owner could start one up. I wonder how many corporations are already ramping up to do this? There'll be no way to hack 51% of the computers..
