Yes, I get it, and I can see your points. I can also see why what can be called oversimplification is necessary to get the message across to a wider audience. And, let's be honest, the topic of finance is quite simple: there are assets and instant settlement on the one hand, and there is credit, expectations, and trust on the other. If you and I make a bet today to be settled in the future, we can both still handle it. If one of us is then going to sell his expected earnings from the bet to another man who packages it into a product with a cool name and a good rating,g and if then, many years later, your own pension fund bundles that product into your package .... only then it becomes complicated, opaque, nobody's fault, nobody's responsibility. So in my humble view, the financial mess out there totally justifies simplification in selected spots. But I get your point :-) ... and The Gold Standard may not be a good birthday present for you :-)

Halfway through @npub1gdu…6nak' The Gold Standard, I’m intrigued by its novel genre and delighted by how gripping it is. Without giving away too much, the takeaway for me is this: When the status quo drifts too far from reality, imagining—and building—a better one stops being optional.

If you are 50+ (euphemism for old), and zoom out, and zoom out again, and again, aaaand again: what do you see? Me: I am in the post reproductive phase, where I have become invisible to Darwinism. My genes are not going anywhere. And my mitochondria never did. That is kind of cool for a libertarian, isn't it, freedom pure? Now: Jump onto clawdstuff? Or support darwinistically exposed people to jump onto clawdstuff? Hahaha - this is fun. I know my answer - find yours.

It's funny to see people reposting Jack's notes with almost anyone following Jack in the first place.

Yes exactly 🎯. Used AP for the bettter part of last year but wanted to give Fountain another go as it strams and boosts 🤷🏼‍♂️

There are only two groups who don't need to adjust their portfolios: those who don't have any assets and those who have all in Bitcoin.
