The blockchain is on satellites now. So when the grid comes back up your Bitcoin is still there.

Or you get out of the area to where there is power. And it’s easier to do so than lugging your gold.

Bitcoin is useless.

We don't know that governments will continue to borrow and debase. Why would the Elites, as the gargantuan savers that they are, want to debase their savings? They obviously wouldn't. So deflation it is, because they're not stoopid and savers make the biggest killings possible during deflationary spirals.

You can groundless say, "no we're not" experiencing a structural collapse yet oil production — with oil as the master resource — is still less than it was in November 2018 and has been dropping at an average of about 4pc a year since then. And that's not even counting the declining embodied energy per unit volume…

Structural collapses of civilizations are thermodynamic collapses. Just because the 5yr old Non-Public Degrowth Agenda is masking global energy collapse doesn't mean it isn't happening. The proof is in the pudding, GC.

Fully, brother. Lieberman with the Kill Switch, from the other side. Full spectrum dominance. Whatever Leo wants Leo Getz. And we're getting an engineered National Socialism under Tulsi Gabbard after Trump picks her and then gets mixed himself. That's what Leo wants. Which actually means a conservative, decentralized left libertarianism. Bitcoin etc will get outcompeted with a post-Fed, encrypted, digital public banking scheme. That's what the FedNow-Treasurydirect nexus is actually laying the groundwork for rather than the CBDCs which are a misdirection play. We're talking digital Greenbacks here. Believe that. Ain't gon be no need for crypto then.

Why is that what we're looking at? Cuz the Elites put there pants on one leg at a time just like us and want to survive the structure collapse, too.

Differences being one system takes a lot less energy and resources to maintain than the other with the increase in complexity over time. Crazy what amount of resources of the people gets freed when you no longer have to nearly feed as much global gonfei class and maintain obsolete infrastructure they are reliant upon (i.e. the issues with CMBS didn't just appear out of no where with the scamdemic and as they say, just the tip).

> We're experiencing structural collapse of civilization.

No, we're not. Replacing most bureaucrats with easily verifiable, public lines of code that people can opt in to using is hardly that. I'm sure the church was proclaiming the structural collapse of civilization when martin luthur pinned some docs to a door though regardless of people actually believing that load of BS or not.

> If they didn't print trillions during COVID what do you think would have happened ffs?

People would have ignore lockdown orders even more and continued to produce goods and services for each other.

Regardless, we know national governments will continue to borrow and debase, some more than others (as they all have since our records from ancient mesopotamia have shown), supported by their central banks. People freely opting into systems that stand to gain from such (and become stronger when attacked), even with simple actions, will at the margins only make costs of maintaining the status quo even more expensive for them. Opt – in globally decentralized governance structures already exist and will to obsolete those that try to make it a PITA to opt out from…

The public key cryptography genie has been out of the bottle for a long time, only that its cheaper than ever for even normies (way more than "99% of dissidents") to use it (and increasingly more so), which of course the gonfei in centralized institutions who have no incentive to automate their jobs away, will cling to any hope with their davosian hymms.

There's two types of trust and distrust. The first is fiat trust and distrust, which is just sour grapes garden variety complaining not born of necessity and backed by action. The second is real, visceral, revolutionary trust and distrust backed by life-changing necessity and action.

You are addressing the fiat variety while Hariri is addressing the real kind. Which is why you're response to what he said is reactionary and political. Note that I'm not fan of Hariri myself.

99pc of dissidents ain't doing shit about their fiat distrust beyond virtue signalings like buying guns and Bitcoin. That ain't shit. Otherwise the rest of their life looks like anyone else's, which is to say pretty goddamn trusting. 99pc of dissidents just want a new government and what is that?

That's trust in government. Real trust, Why do dissidents, even, place such real trust in government? Because everybody knows that centralization is what holds the whole shebang together and keeps everyone alive regardless of the corrupt shitshow, bread, and circuses. So your call for the decentralization of finance is no less utopian than Davos' techno-utopia (from its perspective.

We're experiencing structural collapse of civilization. But most everyone can't face up to that and just wants to blame the managerial class for the unavoidable decline in living standards, which is just more fiat behavior. It's pathetic. If they didn't print trillions during COVID what do you think would have happened ffs? Would you rather have bread on the shelves right now or would you not?

Cheap shot, Mac.
