About the Declaration there is a finality that is exceedingly restful. It is often asserted that the world has made a great deal of progress since 1776, that we have had new thoughts and new experiences which have given us a great advance over the people of that day, and that we may therefore very well discard their conclusions for something more modern. But that reasoning can not be applied to this great charter. If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people. Those who wish to proceed in that direction can not lay claim to progress. They are reactionary. Their ideas are not more modern, but more ancient, than those of the Revolutionary fathers.
—Calvin Coolidge, Address at the Celebration of the 150th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia on July 5, 1926.

I hope for all the people taking it that there are no (or low frequency) negative side effects.
But this is not how life works. There are tradeoffs for every decision. I fear that there will be massive long-term side effects that we discover 4, 5, 6 years into this craze and that these shortcuts have taken people to very bad places.

Great new term - “Poligarch”. Politicians who control vast amounts of money and use it to enrich themselves while controlling their fiefdoms.
A concise name for something is powerful. It helps you recognize something that has always been there but hard to define. And it makes spreading the recognition much easier to others.

It’s the same answer to “why do people eat junk food?”. It’s easy, especially if you don’t think too hard. Thinking too hard about something you want to do may reveal a good reason not to do it. Best to avoid that mess and lie to yourself later that you are good person.
At this level - the worst truth you can think of yourself is that you are too lazy for deep thought. If you did do the deep thought, the worst you could think of yourself would be much much worse.

Fair. I think belief in doing the right thing for the best possible future outcome (broadly defined) is at the root of all these.
Belief and/or faith is the base layer of everything if you dig deep enough. Ideally, it is deep down there because you have done enough work with logic or reason to have a solid foundation.

Also use the word “principles”. They aren’t really principles if you don’t exercise them in instances that give you immediate, negative consequences.
The good news is that principles, morals, etc… almost always give you a positive long-term return. It’s delayed gratification just like saving money or getting up early to exercise, etc…
Physical fitness, fiscal fitness, spiritual fitness, social fitness are all driven by the same mechanism.

Prediction: huge inflows from tax-advantaged FBTC holders proportionally more than IBIT holders. IBIT has a bit of an advantage with larger players who currently leverage IBIT’s deep liquidity to play their fiat games.

For those who care, looks like Morgan Stanley’s BTC ETF will launch next week. 14bps fee vs. Blackrock & Fidelity 25bps fee. Some cannibalization from IBIT & FBTC and new flows from MS wealth managers.
This plus STRC getting closer to next dividend date will start pulling in more capital. You may hate tradfi games, but the stable bid is growing…

When I see posts like this, I’m reminded of the critical role I play on NOSTR: Someone who doesn’t understand the tech and can tell you when it is “normie ready”.
