I strongly believe authorities will use this luddite argument to enact harsh taxes or bans. Check 🧵 for why:<br/><br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/Laim.png"> <br/><br/>Rather than praising bitcoin as a tech paradigm shift à la petroleum and the internet, the authors introduce the blatantly luddite argument that "early adopters" ... "increase their real wealth and consumption" ... "at the expense of [latecomers]".<br/><br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/Lain.png"> <br/><br/>Then they go on to brazenly advocate for legislation ... "to prevent bitcoin prices from rising or to see bitcoin disappear altogether" in order to prevent "the division of society".<br/><br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/Laio.png"> <br/><br/>The authors also model some projections, to illustrate the paltry amount of BTC that will remain available for latecomers. (Woe is me! Conspicuously left out is the reason that has driven 15 years of bitcoin adoption & development: it's simply better tech.)<br/><br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/Laiq.png"> <br/><br/> In all the years I've been monitoring the bitcoin space, this is by far the most aggressive paper to come from authorities. The gloves are off. It's clear that these central bank economists now see bitcoin as an existential threat, to be attacked with any means possible.<br/><br/>Many of us have warned that this was coming: bitcoin as a major political fault line both in national and international elections. Well here it is. It means that us HODLers must take action to insure that governments respect our basic right to hold property.<br/><br/>And no, this won't be a war between haves and have-nots. Rather this will be a historic clash between those who stand for the natural rights of the individual, and those who clutch at the failed ideologies of collectivism and central planning.<br/><br/>Here's the download link to the paper: "The distributional consequences of Bitcoin".

Hayek to defend Kamala Harris&#39; policies, I must effortpost. <br/><br/>Unfortunately, it seems to me that this is once again a case of a progressive quote-mining Hayek to make a point he almost certainly wouldn&#39;t have agreed with.<br/><br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/JygS.png"> <br/><br/>First, let&#39;s look at the paragraph that follows. Krugman says Harris is not a full-on communist (true). She just wants to expand welfare, not fundamentally change the role of govt. Harris did support single-payer health care but now doesn&#39;t. But even if she did, says Krugman, it&#39;s not that radical or dangerous (&#34;un-American&#34;)!<br/><br/>Hayek would disagree.<br/><br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/JygU.png"> <br/><br/>Hayek on &#34;social insurance&#34; from The Constitution of Liberty, more detailed than the The Road to Serfdom quote Krugman links: Progressives rarely mention the part in red, where he says that while the aim of govt providing a safety net is philosophically defensible, the actual methods are the problem, and as we&#39;ll see, a likely inescapable one in Hayek&#39;s telling.<br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/JygW.png"> <br/>He continues on to say that opposition to govt welfare is entirely defensible, just not purely on human freedom grounds. To understand this, you have to grok that Hayek defined freedom as the absence of coercion and placed a high value on prohibiting government monopolies.<br/><br/>He does not accept the &#34;taxation is theft&#34; maxim, which is why many libertarians dislike him. What he opposes is government action that prevents people from trying new experiments and competing with the state or state-connected actors to provide &#34;essential&#34; services.<br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/JygX.png"> Image<br/>What Hayek is saying about &#34;social insurance&#34; is that in theoretical terms a state-supported welfare program could achieve its ends without threatening freedom.<br/><br/>The more sound reason to oppose it, he argues, is that the state apparatus that administers welfare in the modern world inevitably becomes a coercive and monopolistic one. There are strings attached to that money, always: Strings that serve the plans of the bureaucrats, not the individuals receiving the money.<br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/Jyge.png"> <br/>It&#39;s fantasy (&#34;illusion&#34;) to imagine a government machine powerful enough to administer welfare at nation-state scale while being kept in check against liberty violations. &#34;Democratic control&#34; ain&#39;t gonna cut it.<br/><br/>History shows the administrative state certainly never checks itself. This is why the recent Chevron reversal was so crucial. It allows courts, rather than &#34;democracy,&#34; to exert more direct constitutional restraint on these agencies, likely to be more effective than Congress &#34;doing something&#34; (LOL).<br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/Jygg.png"> <br/>THE GREATEST DANGER TO LIBERTY TODAY, writes Hayek, comes from the expert class running the bureaucracy for the &#34;public good.&#34;<br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/Jygk.png"> <br/>It is INEVITABLE, he says, that such an apparatus will become self-willed, uncontrollable and hegemonic.<br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/Jygn.png"> <br/>Agree or disagree with Hayek&#39;s analysis, but does this sound like a guy who endorses anything close to resembling our modern welfare state? Or does it sound like a nuanced thinker conceding that the state could theoretically subsidize welfare in some non liberty-threatening way that he never quite specifies?<br/><br/>Hayek would almost certainly recognize massive problems with the way our current top-down welfare system distorts the market, coercively suppresses competition, and immiserates people. And to invoke him anywhere proximal to single-payer health care is a joke.<br/><br/>I get the criticism from libertarians that Hayek could&#39;ve been more clear to avoid mischaracterization, or should&#39;ve been more &#34;hardcore&#34; about opposing all taxation. I&#39;m not arguing that he&#39;s that kind of libertarian. And that&#39;s OK.<br/><br/>But it&#39;s hard for me to see the way Krugman is quoting him here as anything other than a disingenuous way to normalize Harris&#39; proposed expansion of social engineering and an intrusive welfare state. 2024-08-13T19:05:57Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxg6khxzsnn308p2nqt8x9jrmh347pdntpky0y2zt2g998js99vwqzyqg3m9hwd56g0rv447l72zclsr5py4khvcnkhz3qfh35vxzj2cjzuhjmp3h In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs26t6ncc9as0xtsxnas3ea752j73sjy72xvpye6euexecst2s5hhcr4xfwk'>nevent1q…xfwk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Also <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1vrrvevxq2w8k7td6tyycu3qxdd6lgmf7f93kaa0nr76hkcwg8ajsjqe70u" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>jimepstein</span> (<span class="italic">npub1vrr…e70u</span>)</a></span>! 2024-08-13T18:34:14Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsp5764g3lethfce9t6ud0q0w4e79hf5xs8zew73pt34wdmxgepyyszyqg3m9hwd56g0rv447l72zclsr5py4khvcnkhz3qfh35vxzj2cjzu4u8z5m What a great profile on the origins, growth, and awesome potential of Nostr for Reason by <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1trr5r2nrpsk6xkjk5a7p6pfcryyt6yzsflwjmz6r7uj7lfkjxxtq78hdpu" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>gladstein</span> (<span class="italic">npub1trr…hdpu</span>)</a></span>. <br/><br/>Let’s go 🔥🔥🔥<br/><a href="https://reason.com/2024/08/13/can-nostr-make-twitters-dreams-come-true/">https://reason.com/2024/08/13/can-nostr-make-twitters-dreams-come-true/</a> 2024-08-13T17:37:45Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs0scdhmt5j4rlv87j2tuvupeuylevwlnc4sqhn6zgqlu0t74gxskgzyqg3m9hwd56g0rv447l72zclsr5py4khvcnkhz3qfh35vxzj2cjzu2sv9d7 I’m not claiming to have any special knowledge of what’s going on.

Those in power yearn for every transaction to be tracked, taxed and, if need be, frozen. The action against the Canadian truckers was the template, and CBDCs (programmable, instantly manipulated money) are the tool of control that they ultimately want. <br/><br/>First, they must dismantle the privacy-centric alternatives so there&#39;s no viable exit ramp once CBDCs and the like are implemented. That&#39;s what we&#39;ve been witnessing with the attacks on coin tumblers like Tornado Cash and today&#39;s attack on Samourai. <br/><br/>They will point to bad people using these tools, just as they pointed out that Hamas raised some funds in various cryptocurrencies, without noting that a vast amount of money laundering happens with government-issued currency. <br/><br/>It&#39;s the same kind of bad-faith argument the FBI made in the &#39;90s when they tried to kill end-to-end encryption altogether. &#34;Sometimes terrorists might use it.&#34; Ok, and? They also use pressure cookers. The internet as we know it today would not exist if they had succeeded.<br/><br/>They are unlikely to succeed this time either, but unfortunately there will be casualties in the war on privacy, and those casualties will be those who openly thwart their ambitions of total surveillance. <br/><br/><br/>My 2022 video including an interview with a Samourai Wallet founder here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIYiXbLRy1c">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIYiXbLRy1c</a> 2024-04-24T20:38:08Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs84vnqe07ptyzwepfm54qvs7rfccvfkn8r9zp4c85synxkvp2ku9czyqg3m9hwd56g0rv447l72zclsr5py4khvcnkhz3qfh35vxzj2cjzuefjjhk Momentum is building to &#34;child-proof&#34; the internet by requiring social media age verification. It appears likely that a combination of legislative action and immense political pressure on tech companies over the next 2-3 years will lead to what amounts to a Digital ID for virtually any website where users interact with each other. Online anonymity will become vanishingly rare.<br/><br/>This is one way Nostr becomes a final refuge for those seeking surveillance-free, unmediated communication. 2024-04-09T13:34:00Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqspqcd2ns2twp6jnda376n78rurw4a4r8l87grxuergqpr8d8wlcfczyqg3m9hwd56g0rv447l72zclsr5py4khvcnkhz3qfh35vxzj2cjzu0g0nzc How bitcoin transforms energy use<br/>0:00 - Brooklyn’s bitcoin-heated bath house<br/>2:28 - Bitcoin mining’s unquenchable thirst for cheap energy<br/>4:10 - Why decentralization matters<br/>5:14 - How bitcoin mining transformed a small Georgia farming town<br/>6:35 - How bitcoin miners maximize energy efficiency<br/>7:45 - Could bitcoin bootstrap solar power?<br/>9:15 - How bitcoin monetizes “stranded energy”<br/>9:38 - Answering bitcoin’s environmentalist critics<br/>10:49 - How bitcoin stopped a Texas blackout<br/>12:42 - Underground miners fixed Venzuela’s power lines<br/>14:20 - The impossibility of stopping bitcoin<br/><br/><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8gFppa4VLg&amp;t=8s&amp;pp=ygUccmVhc29uIHR2IGJpdGNvaW4gYmF0aCBob3VzZQ%3D%3D">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8gFppa4VLg&amp;t=8s&amp;pp=ygUccmVhc29uIHR2IGJpdGNvaW4gYmF0aCBob3VzZQ%3D%3D</a> 2024-03-08T20:10:03Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsdz4gp8cwt44ln449tasagmwr96cxeuca0zp7p8g6tld56c59kyhczyqg3m9hwd56g0rv447l72zclsr5py4khvcnkhz3qfh35vxzj2cjzunssn8h What&#39;s the best, safest, most reliable p2p btc exchange at the moment?
