Ep 85. Bitcoin is NOT a store of value. Bitcoin is Venice Series with Allen Farrington

Sep 11 2022 • 1hr 5m

Show Notes

Allen Farrington joins me again to discuss:

The Separation of Economy & Politik
The final Cantillon effect: NVK

"Violence tends to local monopoly"
"You can't be maximally free"

Why Bitcoin is NOT a Store of Value - At least in the way people think of it.
The store of value narrative is prematurely understood
SoV is proportionality
Perfect proportionality is perfect SoV

Who is Wittgenstein?

Why is Bitcoin derangement syndrome so prevalent ?

Reguardless of who ends up with the most wealth, the overall wealth in the economy will be much greater because of Bitcoin. Bitcoiners are also mostly givers, unlike the takers that have lived off milking the fiat ponzi.
